I have a Z2 tablet SGP511 on 4.4.2 (build 402). Its rooted. I had XZDualRecovery 2.7. But after some research and Installing many "Kitkat SD card fix" apps with no success I have updated my XZDual Recovery to 2.82.... But I'm still not able to protect any Titanium Backup backups. From my research my understanding is RIC is preventing the "Kitkat SD card fix" apps from working. I also tried the "Kitkat SD card Full access xposed module , also with no success... In the XZDualRecovey log I see "Starting the Rickiller to the background..." Help! THANX!

Hello, hope you can help. Some background, I rooted my Nook with Indirect's method last Christmas after getting the 1.4.1 update the blocked side loading. I restored to 1.4.0, rooted and blocked OTAs. Have been fine ever since. Started getting the 'insufficient space' error when trying to download certain apps from 'Google Play Market'. I started uninstalling apps to clear space and stupidly thought titanium backup and titanium backup pro were separate products, not companion products. I uninstalled titanium backup and cannot get it to download again, because of the 'insufficient space' error. I've since read more and wanted to clear 'dalvik cache', but guess what, can't do it because I don't have titanium backup.
I created the SD R3 card and booted in the CWM menu. When I try to backup my current rom, the backup fails around the 4g+, not always on the same file/app, this is on a 8g card and there is plenty of room left.
So what are my best options here? I do like the B&N reader and want to retain access to their market, but use Go Launcher and Dolphin instead of the stock B&N apps, and like access to Amazon and Google Play markets.
Should I return to stock and try to reroot with Indirects method? Do I need to use a different PC?
Should I use the SD card to reroot? I'd also like to repartition my space this time around.
I do have backups of most of my apps on my SD card, but these were done using Titanium Backup and I have no access to them now.
Any suggestions where I should go from here?
Thanks for any help.

do any errors show up when the backup fails in cwm? can you attach screenshot of the backup process that you are trying to do?
I had problems restoring my backups in cwm because they were to big. I updated my cwm to 6.0.1.2 from in the development forum and it gives my issue. The new cwm also does its backups different too so I would update yours and try backing up then.

Hello, I've recently moved on from iOS and embraced android with the Sony Xperia Z2. I've unlocked the boot loader and successfully rooted the device and everything is A-OKAY. However, no matter what I do, I cannot install APK's to the SD card at all. When I switch installer default location to SD card, everytime, I receive the error "Cannot Install XXX Because there is no free space". When I revert to internal, everything works. I'm not sure whether what I'm trying to do is possible, if so please inform me. Anyways, here are the steps I've completed already (all of which did nothing, I'm afraid).
1. Installed and Used, SDFIX from GPlay store (Success message)
2. Edited platform.xml in systems/permissions/ to include new permissions (no change what soever)
3. Formatted the SD card, there and back again, from fat32 to exfat (no change whatsoever)
Apologies for the long message but I am truly at my wits end. All I want to naturally install apps directly on my SD card. I'm new to the world of Android so please be patient.
Edit: Currently attempting the Foldermount option
Try xposed installer and xposed module handle external storage
It alows read and write to your external sdcard
This may possibly solve your problem

Google disabled sd card write permission for third party apps like foldermount..
You already rooted phone great! Now use this app its very simple to do https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
Once you got it install link2sd and you are ready to go
Hey.
I am no stranger to Android hacking so I downloaded newest ROM for my Doogee DG280 (mt6582).
I flashed it, then backed up using SPFlashTool, processed using MTKDroidTools to mod boot and recovery
and from this new CWM I installed SuperSU update from ZIP file.
So far so good, BUT:
Once any application requests root (i.e. calls "su"), it loses the rights to READ from sdcard (actual or emulated, doesn't matter).
I am emphasising READ because common problem on Kitkat is that the apps cannot write on SD card, which is easily
fixed by the SDFix app (tried it - no help).
So basically, all my apps can now read/write sdcard, but once an app requests root access, from that moment it can only write
to the SD, but not read from it. This creates lots of ****ty situations - for example, I download a file to an SD card and want to
copy it to /system/media/audio using Total Commander. So I do this, Total Commander says it needs to remount the partition.
I click Yes, it requests the root, remounts the partition (success) to rw and then tries to copy the file from SD but because it now
has root, it has lost the rights to actually read the file I want to copy.
Funny thing is, when I connect USB debugging and use ADB, the ADB is rooted as well and it CAN read from the sd card.
So there is a workaround for me now to use Android terminal, connect to the adbd on localhost and execute all the commands
I need but that is VERY nasty and of course it only works for manual operations.
Many root apps use sdcard to store data, for example Lucky Patcher stores downloaded patches on SD card. But with this bug
it cannot.
Anyone encountered this problem? Any solutions?
Try flashing this zip in recovery. Remember to take a backup before flashing. Did wonders for my phone running on MTK6582 chipset on KK ROM.

Unfortunately, didn't help. I examined the package and it does the same as SDFix app (which I already tried). But all these apps focus on giving write access to SD cards for ordinary apps.
I have a different problem - my apps actualy CAN read/write SD card right to the moment when they request root (call "su" binary). After that, they lose read access to the card.
Have you tried installing Busybox?
Maybe this helps: use SuperSU, disable the "mount namespace separation" option in SuperSU's settings. Reboot.
I'm having some problems as I need to move some obb files from my SD to my internal memory. I've been told to use foldermount but after successful install it does not load and just says there was a problem. I tried to use gl to sd as an alternative but even though I have given it permission with supersu it says it cannot find my micro SD card. I have checked that my root is working with root checker, tried uninstalling and reinstalling, tried restarting my device but nothing I can think of helps.
I have a Acer E380, android version 4.2.2, kernal version 3.4.5.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Hello everyone,
I'm hoping you can help me with an issue I'm having with Titanium Backup not being able to see old backups. I just reflashed stock de-odexed 5.0.1 using Flashfire. In Flashfire I set it to wipe 3rd party apps before flashing. The flash went fine and my phone went through the setup fine, and I chose not to restore all my app/setting from Google. All the TB backups were still on my SD card and I set the backup location in TB to the old directory on my SD card. But my problem is when I got to restore user apps in TB, it can't see any of the old backups in the TB directory on my SD card. Anyone else ever experience this? Did you find a way to fix it so TB could see all the old backups?
Thanks.
Eric
I'm guessing it's related to 5.0.1 not allowing access to your external SD card. Try running SD Fix, available in the app store. Be sure to reboot after you run the app. Hopefully, this will fix the problem!

Thanks for the suggestion. I looked into that, but it didn't fix anything.
I'm having this issue too, you're not alone. I recently flashed Hyperdrive RLS21 over stock rooted MJ7 and TB could not see my user apps backup on the external SD card... Very weird. I'll let you know if I come up with anything.
