Hi, please do you know how to mount the full disk (all partitions) of an android device so that I can make a "dd" backup for another phone? (same model) Thanks for help!
ooops sorry! I'm in the wrong forum, can you move my thread to the right place please?
Hi,
I can't have it moved, because you never mentioned any devices?
Though, if this is about your PC more than the devices... Or multiple devices issue, you should ask for help here...

Good luck!

I am planning to remake a 2nd partition...which would be better, ext 3 or 4? Coz i cant link anything to my sd with link2sd plus...when im trying to link data, it is always saying "link2sd package invalid"
Thanks for your response..
Hi there,
ext4 has a few more features, for exmaple it can hold bigger files, have more directories and mount even more file systems. But for what you are trying to achieve either will suffice!
For further questions about link2sd I'd suggest asking in the thread [APP][1.6+] Link2SD
You have asked a very similar question in the Assist forum earlier today, please use the links provided or ask in Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
I recently did a backup using TWRP (v.2.8.1.0) and now have multiple ext4 files (data.ext4.win000, data.ext4.win001, data.ext4.win002 etc). What is the best forum to post in for help about concatenating these files together?
Hi,
You didn't me think your device make and model number. If it's an S4, it seems you know where that section is, as you've posted there before. That would be where to ask for help, in the S4 Q&A section.

Good luck!
Dear developers,
Recently I got a new phone Vivo Y22 with Funtouch OS v1.0 (Christmas present). Its was okay at first then it start telling me that storage has not enough space (with only factory apps and Clean Master). I realize the it had about 4GB internal storage but divided to 2 parts. 2.5GB for system space and 1.06GB as internal storage. In system space, i have only 150mb left I always need to use Clean Master to wipe cache before I download anything. I tried Link2SD, I formatted my SD card and set 4GB partition as EXT2 but did not detect. Same goes for EXT3 and EXT4. It only works for FAT32 but some files cannot be linked using this format. Read some threads in web, they mentioned some phone does not support EXT2,3,4 format. Maybe this is my case? I tried to look for informations about Vivo Y22 but very less and worst, some of them is in chinese.
So the 1st question is: How can I increase the system space? Could I adjust the system space to occupy my more of my Internal Memory?
Second question is, how do I update my phone from JellyBean to KitKat? Do I follow tutorials that uses the same Chipset (Y22 uses MediaTek MT6582)? How if I want to install custom ROMs like CM11 (can't find Vivo Y22 in Device section in CM site so i presume it is not supported?)?
Thanks in advance..

It is because I couldn't find much info online, that's why i opted to ask here thanks anyway. Could the moderator be kind enough to move this to "Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" section? I don't wanna bump thread. If anyone have any ideas about this problem, I'm still here waiting.

I got a moto 360 recently but I need android 4.3 for android wear app. I currently have android 4.1. So I though I would just use TWRP to flash a more recent version of android on my phone and that’s when the problems started.
problems I have:
TWRP cant mount anything so i cant find my rom.
when using adb it just says waiting for device (usb debugging enabled).
basically all the stuff I try fails somehow and I’ve given up on google and come here for some more relevant help.
thanks in advance
(btw new to the formums so sorry if i posted in the wrong section or something)
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA assist.
Please look at these threads if you haven't already:
[RECOVERY] TWRP touch recovery
[RECOVERY] ClockworkMod Touch v6.0.4.6
The OP has said that you can not mount USB mass storage unless you use adb commands or using a usb otg.
