See if your question is answered here. It looks like it will work, you just won't be able to access the /data partition (including any files you have on internal storage, so put nandroid backups on external sd card) from the recovery.

I'm running icScrewed with the stock siyah kernel but when I try and get some cwm restore or backups going, it seems as if it can't mount /sdcard. Anyone know how to fix this?

Are you using the internal sdcard option? sometimes for me in flipflops I can use the normal sdcard option to access the internal sdcard and sometimes I have to use the internal sdcard options. I don't have an external card yet but over all I haven't had an issue mounting least the internal one in cwr.
me too
just flashed to ICScrewd and now I can't access my nandroid backups. CWM does read the contents of /sdcard when you selected "internal" sd but that's not useful for restoring nandroid backup....
edit: didn't see the "restore from internal sdcard".... duh

You're not the only one I didn't see that option either. Took me some time to finally get there.

Well I'm using the twrp rec like most people are..
New to its layout compared to CWM.
I have a few questions?
Before a back up it has an X spot options for check marking certain permissions
Also ,where is the standard dalvic wipe option that's normally under advanced tab?
@ Most importantly does this back.up the nand to the internal phones mem, or external sd?
Is there a option to be able to swap the backup or install Rom from the external sd..
Just unfamiliar with this twrp layout ....
I def want to secure a correct backup before I even try to flash a Rom

The dalvik is labeled as dalvik cache and its been moved to the main wipe page. All the major recoveries except for cwm have it there.
It backs it up to internal memory

You can mount your external sd card and backup there or use internal, its your choice.
I can't back up my S3 (fw 4.1.2) to external sdcard. I choose backup to extsdcard from the backup menu in cwm 6.0.1.2 but it says 'Can't mount backup path'. Ne1 have solutions to this?
Is it formatted in fat32?
Hi Glebun, I formatted my card internally with my phone. Should I format it with FAT32?
Yes. Formatting internally on stock-ish systems will result in Fat64 which is not only incompatible with Cwm but has several issues on it's own.
You may want to try to mount the sdcard's filesystem before backing up

Thanx d4fseeker
I backed up my i9300 from recovery, and now I want to copy the info to my PC, so I can format the device.
where is the backup saved?
Thanks
Either in your internal sd or external sd
Look for clockworkmod folder. Its in there i think :what:

depends on the recovery you're using. TWRP or clockworkmod
Hello,
I have a s3 gti9300. Currently I have 4.2.2 paranoid android 3.15 on it. I want to downgrade to Omega rom 4.1.2 for stability and stock purposes.
My question is this. Since 4.2.x enables the multiuser feature and adds an 'sd card 0' and 'emulated' folders, is it recommended to format my internal sd before flashing omega ROM since it doesn't have the multiuser feature? I don't mind losing the data on it. Or should I just format the /system? Or doesn't matter? would rather not have all those extra folders.
And if i format my internal sd card, which recovery should I use? Currently I am on Philz recovery latest version. I also have a nandroid of stock Samsung 4.1.2.
P.S. If I do need to format internal, any advice on what to backup would be appreciated! I already have my efs folder backup in my Dropbox so I'm guessing IMEI is safe
Thank you!

there is something called a full wipe (i'm not familiar with it unfortunately)
When i came from 4.2.x i flashed a 4.0.4 stock rom from sammobile with odin, rotted it and chose a custom rom 4.1.x

I always wipe internal sd moving between the two
Just back up your sd, do a titanium backup, boot recovery/mounts and storage/ format system/data/cache........ready to flash, .....Just remember that if you are going to flash new Rom through cwm, make sure it's on your external sd!

Hello, I am Philz touch. It's based on cwm. In mounts and storage, there is format /system and format /sd card.
Which one do I have to do?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Exactly as I said format system+ data + cache+sd card
How would I do the reverse of this I forgot to wipe my data from internal and now I can't seem to find it and I need to find it so I can back everything up galaxy note 2
