Can't select entire Nandroid backup? - Hero CDMA General

Anyone else have an issue where they can't select the entire nandroid backup?
I go into recovery, and try to select a backup, and it opens the folder instead of running it. In other words, I select the backup (i.e. "backup-1" or whatever I've got it named), and I get the option to select boot, cache, data, misc, recovery, and system.
I've never had that issue before, and it's just recently popped up. What's going on?

I have a theory you may have changes the name of the subdirectory before your nandroid backup should with your nandroid backup. if thats the case, mount your sdcard, the cd into nandroid on your sdcard, then mkdir nandroid-backup, then mv "backup-1" to nandroid-backup.
then try to restore your backup

wow, sorry, that just confused the hell out of my tired brain. Mind elaborating? lol
EDIT: And please remember, I'm not terribly experienced with entering commands...but can do basic **** lol
EDIT EDIT: I'm a complete idiot. I was putting my backups directly into the nandroid folder instead of into the phone's name folder inside the nandroid folder. Probably what you were trying to tell me

However, now the damn thing hangs on the HTC screen when I restore a backup like it did the last time I tried...wtf?

Nandroid Question

I recently did a nandroid backup and it worked. I then flashed a theme that I thought I liked but didn't so I ended up using the restore nandroid process in recovery mode and it worked. I then changed the name of the first folder inside of the Nandroid folder so I know which ROM it is. I then ended up flashing another theme that I did not like. I tried to do a nandroid restore but this time I get an error says to do "nandroid-mobile.sh restore" or something like that from ADB.
How do I do the restore from ADB? I would use the CMD correct? I tried looking for possible command using CMD but could find nothing. Anyone know why this happened. Why I get this error? I use to get this error all the time on my G1 so I instead would use SwitchRom, but does anyone know if a SwitchRom exists for NexusOne?
I got this same error tonight!
unfortunately my computer no longer recognises my nexus one in either windows or linux, so i can't use ADB anymore.

if you are using RA recovery, just open CMD and type
Code:
adb shell
# switchrom
when you are in recovery... from there you can do what you need to do... but if you are only restoring a nandroid, use BART (also built into RA recovery)
Code:
adb shell
# bart
a list of options will come up, for nandroid backup i think it is just
Code:
bart -n
but im not entirely sure.
you can also restore the backup from the actual recovery... scroll down to nandroid/backup and then choose bart nand restore or whatever the option is.
Sometimes that happens to me when my phone is low on battery try fully charging your phone.
Does changing the name somehow cause this problem?
I have noticed that when you change the name of the folder that contains the nandroid backup it will fail to restore it.

The name of the folder has to be "Nandroid" or its will not properly restore. I never had to noticce this, it was actually obviously since the G1 days.. don't know how I already knew.
You'll get that error if you battery is <30%
Full charge when you flash people, full charge.

couldn't find directory... No files found?

Trying to restore a NAND in CWM but it says "couldn't find directory, no files found" when I click "restore"
So i did a backup, and it shows up when I then hit "restore" in sdcard/clockworkmod/backup (listed at top of recovery screen) but when I boot and look on my sdcard, it shows the old backups I made in the folder listed, not the one I just made. I can't find the one I just made, even though if I reboot into recovery, it still shows it (the latest) and only it.
Any idea where the newest one is, and why I cant restore the older ones?
Are you running CWM 6.0.1.9?
Also, take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991657.
I am running v6.0.1.9 and the link you posted seems to say that this should be an issue resolved with this version. Though it did tell where to find the new backup.
It lists some adb commands to move the old backups to the new directory, can I just do that in rootexplorer with copy/paste?

I don't see why you couldn't move the files with rootexplorer. Give it a try!
They moved fine
They are seen by recovery, and now I just switched to TeamWin recovery. We'll see if that sees them too.
Are we confident that wiping doesn't clear this location? I'm a little worried that a factory reset or something might wipe the data folder

If you are worried about losing the backups, copy them to your pc or onto OTG storage. I use cwm and my backups are now in /data/media/clockwork. If you activate multi-user, I think they go to /data/media/0/clockwork, but I can't test. Not sure about the TW recovery.

[Q] CWM touch issues...

Hi!
So, I flashed the official cwm touch 6.0.3.3 from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager, for Nexus 4.
When I perform a backup, it successfully completes.
However, when I boot back into system, the /sdcard/clockworkmod directory is empty.
When I try an adb pull, it's still empty.
But, when I reboot into cwm touch recovery, it clearly shows an available backup, in the same directory (/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup)
And, an adb pull, while in recovery works perfectly.
Any reason why it's not showing up, when I've booted up into Android?
Thanks!

[GUIDE] VM HTC Desire 816 Root How-to

Hello everyone, I recently purchased the Desire 816 for Virgin Mobile, and could not find anything on rooting this device.
So... I figured it out on my own! I decided to write out a tutorial since there isn't anything out there about rooting this phone!
I'm also including a nandroid backup of my stock rooted rom if you don't want to go through all of the steps. You will still need custom recovery.
1. Unlock your bootloader, install custom recovery, and flash superuser. I used v_superuser's guide for this, so thanks to him!
Use his guide to install custom recovery and root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2775801
The custom recovery he links to isn't made for the VM variant of this phone, but it works!
Now you can restore my clean install, rooted nandroid backup (link at end of post) if you don't want to do the following steps and still have full root.
2. Hopefully you were able to successfully install custom recovery and root.
Now this part is a bit tricky. Even with root HTC is stopping us from writing to system. For this we need to apply the wp_mod.ko module.
Download it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2707378
Copy this file to the root of your internal storage.
Now download Terminal Emulator from play store, run it and enter the following commands (you only need to do this once):
su
insmod /sdcard/wp_mod.ko
Once you do this go into your favorite root explorer and mount as R/W. Copy the wp_mod.ko file to /system/lib/modules
Now go to /system/etc and find install-recovery.sh. Open it with a text editor and add a new line at the end with the following:
insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko
Reboot! If all went well the wp_mod module will run at boot every time so you won't have to do it manually each time!
Congratulations, you now have a fully rooted Desire 816!
Download my nandroid backup here (place the contained folder into the CWM backup directory):

Hope this helped anyone wondering how to root the device!

I'm not trying to offend with my answer. Just going for the easiest solution first...
Did you unzip the backup nandroid onto your PC? I imagine he zipped the actual Nandroid folder as it would have a date and time as the name.
If you unzip VM_HTC_Desire_816_Rooted_NandroidBackup.zip you SHOULD see a folder with a date and time. That is the actual nandroid that you'd copy to your Clockwordmod backup folder.

The act of unlocking the phone clears out your data so you might notice that your flashlight and calculator apps are missing. For some reason HTC didn't make those 2 system apps.
If you'd like them back, here you go.

problems with the mod.ko
everything works until I get to the wp_mod.ko command when using the terminal command. It just says cannot open. I tried countless times but it says the same thing. Is there any other way?

If you're having too much trouble and are about to give up you can always download Kontrary's Nandroid backup. I didn't use it but I did look through it and it looks like he already did the write protect mod in it.
Just unzip it on your PC and put the dated folder in your clockworkmod/backup folder. Boot into CWM recovery and restore from his nandroid.
Out of curiosity... Are you hitting enter after SU and before insmod???
Also...
The command insmod /sdcard/wp_mod.ko is only good if you have wp_mod.ko sitting on the root of the internal sd. If its on your micro sd card you'll obviously have to change the path after insmod or just move it to the internal sd..
thanks

Have you plugged it in while in Fastboot? Which OS are you running? I'm on Win 7 x64 and have it set to download drivers from Windows update, I didn't have any problems going that route.
Have you downloaded HTC Sync Manager? It has the drivers required for your PC to recognize your phone.

I installed your CWM Backup after I couldn't figure out your steps... but now there's an ANNOYING notification that says, "Smith disabled... Click here to open." I open it, and no matter what settings I choose, this notification keeps POPPING UP! Is this your doing, or a known issue with this "Mod." All I wanted to do was uninstall all the Google/VM Bloatware. Now going back to stock might be the only fix... ????
That Smith app is a problem for most recent HTC phones. It has nothing to do with the CWM backup. It happens with the M8 and our 816.
I just long press the notification, click App Info and force close. It's usually good until you reboot your phone.
Either HTC or Sprint is supposed to be looking for a fix but who knows.

I was able to stop this annoyance by simply going to Titanium Backup (root needed) and freezing the process.
I typed in Smith in the search bar of TB and it came back with this process/app called
"Smith 4.21-plat_4.4.2-KOT49H"
I believe it happens to come up when a specific "bloatware" app is unaccessible by the device when removed but I have not singled out which app is it so far.
I backed up the app first then froze it and it stopped the Smith popup error permanently even after reboots and power offs.
(You could possibly delete it but until the stock bloatware app that causes this pinpointed i wouldn't recommend it.)
Tested running everything is good no errors rebooted fine checked bootloader and recovery and both are fine as well.

You need a kernel that does not force encryption. I believe ex kernel is an option. I run benzo rom which does not force encryption. Make sure yo backup any data you want to keep. The process should go as follows:
Flash rom
Flash gapps
Flash kernel
Select wipe
Format data
Reboot Recovery
Reboot system

Have you noticed any speed difference after decrypting?
Also is it possible to decrypt using a kernel that doesn't force encryption and then switch to a kernel that may not have that? I would still have to turn encryption on via Settings -> Encrypt is what I'm thinking.

I've seen some testing regarding encrypted vs decrypted, the performance gain is so small it's negligible. If you switch to a kernel that forces encryption, it'll encrypt automatically on boot.

Have you read http://www.anandtech.com/show/9820/the-google-nexus-6p-review ?
The difference in storage speeds is drastic.
Encrypted: 75.7MB/s seq read, 40.6MB/s seq write, 7.4MB/s rand read, 1.0MB/s rand write.
Unencrypted: 179.7MB/s seq read, 52MB/s seq write, 14.73MB/s rand read, 6.3MB/s rand write.

No I hadn't seen that particular article. I guess the results must vary, the results I saw showed performance gains in the order of less than a percent.

In terms of power consumption, the CPU is processing an extra step for every instruction it has passed to it. I would think that with the inefficient chip the 810 already is that this would impact battery life more than real world opening apps type speed.
I think I'll decrypt to see if I can notice any power differences.
so if i copy all my files to my PC before following these steps, I would still be able to use them afterwards? ie pictures, sounds, images, and titanium backup files? i'm wanting to try benzorom and it sounds like it doesn't get along with encryption very well.

Yeah, as long as you back up everything to your PC you can just transfer them all back to your phone after you do this.
if i do a nandroid backup (from TWRP) of an encrypted system then create backup of /sdcard, wipe userdata than restore /sdcard and restore backup with a non forcing kernel will i get a decrypted device with all data restored?
answering my own question:
- twrp backup data
- copy /sdcard to pc
- fastboot format userdata
- copy from pc to /sdcard
- restore data in twrp
are the needed steps to decrypt without losing any data.
A bit of a necro, so I apologize for that.
@ratson: I am attempting to do exactly what you have mentioned here, although I am not an experienced user. Can I get some clarification on the following:
TWRP backup: Done. It keeps wanting to restrict my permissions on this folder, but I was able to get it off the device (Nexus6p Huawei) and backed up onto my PC.
copy the /sdcard to the PC. Man, what a problem I am having with this. First off, when it gets to a folder called /kick it fails because it says it's not a directory. It does this on some long hex named file that actually isn't a directory, but it seems to want to recognize it as one anyway, and then fail the pull because of this.
So, I cut the entire /kick folder through ES Explorer, and temporarily pasted it into my dropbox. Restarted the adb pull through my shell. It seemed to be working ok, until it got to the TWRP folder. While backing that up (I already did this, but it is still on the device as I only copied it. Should I be deleting this before backing up the rest of the /sdcard?) it fails because it says permission denied when it tries to pull some of the backup files.
At this point I've restarted the pull, and tried different things for several hours. Before I continue to bang my head against the wall, I'd like to get some advice.
How do you pull the /sdcard to your pc? what method? what commands? do you do it from TWRP recovery mode, from the system? Pretend I'm an android toddler (I kind of am). Is there anyway to not start from scratch every time the pull fails? Is there ways to pre-empt the failures?
Once this is complete, when you restore the data, can you please also list the commands for that?
I greatly appreciate your, or anyone elses help to reads this.
Thanks,

I was under the impression that a nandroid backup didnnot include apps, user settings, etc. Otherwise, what is the use of Titanium Backup? Perhaps I'm jist confused.
I'm curious if 7.1 still has a huge performance hit with encrypted partitions.
Anyone know of a good app for checking performance of the data partition? All I've seen is internal/external storage.
Thanks.
