What to erase and what not to erase.. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

I'm trying to clean up my phone storage and since my 32 GB sandisk SD card is about to take a dump I need to save certain files. Can I erase titanium backup from my phone storage and still be okay??

Yes, but you won't have a backup.

SD question

When flashing for the first time, do you need to wipe the sd card as well as the phone storage itself or just the phone. Basically what I want to know is all of the contents of my sd card going to be lost.

No, the SD card shouldn't ever get wiped. That's where your backups and the image you are flashing should be stored.

Restoring apps and system from MyBackuproot.

Is this program suppose to restore apps to the phone or back to the original location, i.e. Sd card? I tried to do a full wipe and when I tried restoring, it used all of the phone memory.

If you are not using an EXT partition on your SD card, then MyBackupRoot will attempt to restore everything to the limited internal memory.
If your using S2E or DT Apps2sd, with a ext partition on your SD card, then it will restore your apps to where they came from.

How to remove sd card partition?

I've been having a few problems with partitions recently, how do I remove sd card partitions???
Also why is minitool wizard taking so long to write partitions, especially 500 mb?
Format your sd card from some other phone like an old version of nokia.

64 gb sd backups erases after rebooting

I have a new 64 gb sd formatted exfat. Everytime I do a nandroid backup in cwm recovery and also carbon backup, they both finish backups. After rebooting both the nandroid and carbon backups disappear on the external 64gb sd card. All of the other files on the card are still in tact except for the backups.
Really puzzling. Should I just use the 64gb as a fat32?
Thank you for any comments.

Not sure as how to do it. But I know alot of people are having issues with 64gb cards

Try using twrp since it's actually recommended for our device. Also I believe the only benefit of exfat is that you can have files over 4gb. If you don't have files that big, Fat32 will work fine.

Thank you for your input.
Gave up and went back to the original 32GB.

Quick question about Titainium Backup and SD Card Partitions

Hello, I recently saw a guide on how to move app data to the SD card using Titanium Backup and it says that the partitions I make on my SD card have to be between 1GB and 2GB. I would just like to know why it can't be more (for example a 26 GB partition) and if I can create multiple partitions (ext2, ext3, etc.) to store more data on the SD card.

I haven't used Titanium in years, but you should be able to make it however big you want. I use link2SD to do this same thing and I have a 4gb partition. I used aparted app to make the partition. Hopefully this helps some.
