CWM Backup - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all
I was doing a backup of my Super nexus ROM and I noticed this message:
No /sdcard/ .andriod_secure found. Skipping backup of applications on external storage.
No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext.
What does this mean? I've never noticed it before whilst doing a backup.
My ROM is Super nexus and I'm using the stock kernel that comes with it.

Do you have any application installed on your sdcard? Definitely No.

[Q] Root Explorer?

Is it just me or does Root Explorer not work on an ICS ROM?
I just get a blank screen and it stops responding.
It worked for me on all ICS roms I tried.

Problems with boot manager.

everytime I try to instal a new Rom it says error creating boot.img Idk why
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Bump the old boot manager thread. There's lots of help in there. But when I had your issue I ended up just clearing data, cache and rebooting. Then try again. And most of us have the best luck with boot manager lite.
Rezzy
Try using the nandroid as an install that worked for me

I have had that error over and over and over and over and over...
reinstalled 10 times and a different problem everytime, once it works it doesn't complete the install.
nothing seems to work, been trying adrenaline and miui, but same error, log calls for edit.sh and it didn't have the correct permission to execute, so i changed it and still same error.
emailed the devs, no response. all i can say is I am extremely glad I didn't waste any money on this crappy app.
I've never made it work on external SD. It will always fail with that error message. It works great on internal for me. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the SD card class (I'm using a class 4), but I only need two slots (Phone ROM and slot 1), so I'm fine with using internal for it.

I only had that issue once when trying to use that app. All I did to fix it was go into Superuser Settings and disable logging like the app site says, and it worked from there on perfectly. In fact I'm still using it.

I will try internal, but for some reason I can't use usb file transfer, it always says insert disk, but uninstall and it works fine.
My sdcard is almost completely empty and su has logging off and grant set, only toast enabled.
hope it works and I can use the mount as disk again.
Edit:
wow my first install complete! using a nandroid, thanks for the tip.
I retract calling this app crappy.

you probably don't have enough space left to make one big enough that causes that as well
Just checking. Have you tried to boot the Rom in question? I've gotten that before and the Rom booted fine. Possible that I was just lucky though

I don't think so. You can always flash previous version here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2040264 and get it OTA updated.

Do y'all know if going back to stock would fix connection issues. Im having terrible data connection issues ever since I flashed the jb 10 rom. I tried doing a nan restore but still have connection issues. And the *228 isnt working now either.

You should never use *228 on an lte device. It usually cooks the sim card. I would go to stock and probably get a new sim now. A ROM usually can't affect signal unless it's an AOSP ROM, but if that's the only variable changed then it would make sense to undo it.

Which file do you recomend I flash or use odin with. The main one or the one that lets you keep the unlocked bootloader.

I would use the full JB stock image. So you're full stock and also if you have to go into Verizon is already ready. Also I suggest triangle away before doing it

TWRP says I have 1936+ GB of data to back up!!!!!!!

XDA Please Help!!!
I want to go to a new version of Liquid Smooth from a past version and I go to TWRP to update and it says I have 1982896 Mb of data and it won't let me back up! What do I do?
I can provide more information if needed, as I'm kinda in a rush to get to the doctors right now.
Thanks!

Anyone? Anything? I am trying to backup my current Liquidsmooth 3.0 beta. When I go into TWRP it tells me I have 10 Mb boot, 642 Mb of system, and 1,982,905 mb of data to back up. How is that even possible? That means my phone has about as much storage as my harddrive.
Is something wrong with my version of TWRP? I've used this recovery to backup and restore multiple times. I've tried refreshing the sizes, changing from Micro SD to internal, clearing caches, and even removing my ROM and reinstalling it. This still happens.
If I need to switch to another version of TWRP or to CWM I will. I just don't know how.
Please, if you don't know; could you at least redirect me to another thread?

I can't post in the Philz forum, my account doesn't have priveliges to. I havn't wiped this current ROM yet but, I wiped my last one because I had this issue as well and I couldn't find a fix for it.
