While trying to do a Nandroid backup, I get a error stating, failure to back up boot image. What causes that and how do you fix it?

Does our version of CWM have the 4 gig limit?
The reason I ask is because on another phone the nandroid backup fails if your internal SD card had too much saved to it.

So I downloaded titanium backup but when I back apps. It doesn't back them up to my external SD card but instead to my internal SD card, please help

Change the backup folder from Preferences screen
Yea I looked around online and I moved the backup file to the external SD. My only question now is if I get a new phone and of course the titanium app isn't on there, if I just reinstall it than it'll detect my back ups on my sdcard right?

Thank you, well i guess problem solved
I think I'm too inexperienced to be rom'ing on my everyday phone. I was running Team Objection lf5 and it was great except for google voice and MHL-out. So I decided to play with CM9. Now I cannot revert back to Objection? CWM recovery menu does not see ANYTHING on my external sd card. But when I pop the card into my laptop everything is still there, including all 3 of my CWM backup dates. What gives? I installed TWRP recovery to see if that was any different but it shows my backups as blank too. (Can TWRP even see/use CWM backup files anyways??).
So if the backups are there....how do you recommend I go about regaining access to them? Thank you in advance for saving my butt!
TWRP cannot use CWM backups and when u boot into CWM u should have an option to restore from internal memory or SD card, which is external. Try that

CWM gives me something like "directory not found" both when SD is mounted and unmounted.
Might be that CM9 is having terrible seeing the external. Put the backup on your internal.

This is true, it's only navigating the internal SD. BUT I can't mount the internal in CM9 to move the backups there. I'm stuck right?
No, flash a ROM, then move the backup on your phone, them restore the backup

Got it. I'm in CM9 right now. Got USB storage "working" in that it connects, but while copying my clockworkmod folder to the internal it will cause the phone to reboot each and every time. (4x so far). I'll keep trying but this was an absolute waste of a day.
External has been wonky on CM9, just flash another ROM, preferably tw based, so you can transfer the file, then restore your backup.

Holy crap the whole problem was incompatibility between CWM and CWMtouch versions. Never would have guessed, but then again I know so little that I thought the backups they create would be compatible. Thanks everyone for your help.
CM7 was/is great on my Incredible, but it appears I am not ready for CM9 on the Note. (With the bugs in CM9 I cannot believe people are asking for CM10 already, yikes). Then again, the is on my everyday, daily driver including work phone so I need every little thing to work right.
i was trying to install jelly beans build 16 and i accidently deleted everything from internal and external memory cards. i have a nandroid that i put on the sd card and put it back into my phone but when i try to reboot from twrp it says "no os installed do you wish to proceed". i only have wifi available for about another hour or so please help me. my note 2 is my only form of communication.
So you had a nan on your computer you out in an sd card then restored and still get that message? Was it a full backup or just data? You could just download aROM and flash to get phone back up

I got it back up but thanks for your reply.
I was in the process of installing a rom and I cleared data from recovery and I deleted including internal and external storage so I had no os to flash.

Every time when I restore a backup my firmware, I have an error during the recovery Data partition. When creating a backup, no error occurs. Where could the problem be?

How much space do you have on your ext sd?
Despite all the data, pics blah blah. Is it 16gb etc?
Sent from my LG-P769 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I'm backup to ext_sd 32Gb, free space 10Gb.

I tried backing up with only 1.2gb left lol... I knew i needed more than 2gb in order to backup... Do you know how much a 16 or 32 gb would cost?
EDIT: Nvm, a 16gb would cost me $14 in walmart... Good price if you ask me.

Had the same problem, but I fixed it 0-
Recently I've noticed when trying to do a twrp backup it'll run for several minutes and backup a few partitions. But ultimately it will fail. I'm not sure why.
Has anyone had this problem? Any suggestions to correct it?

Maybe bad sectors or not enough room on your SD card?

I'm showing over 7gb free on the sd card and my backups had been running about 2.5gb.
I suppose the card could be corrupted. I'll have to pop another in and try that. Thanks for the suggestions.
