What phone do you pick so i can make a back up .. the lg revolution isnt on there?? Does the other lg phone on the list work the same??
Rom Manager doesn't work with the revo as far as I know
O ok ... well thanks for the fast reply lol good thing i didnt buy it i woulda been mad ha
So should i just use titanium back up?? Is that good?
I only use ROM Toolbox. I will defer to others who have used Titanium on that question.
I use the app manager in ROM Toolbox to backup apps.
Is the only way to make a complete system/rom backup in cwm ?? And if so were does it save so i can delete old ones and keep them fresh back ups
What exactly are you trying to do?
I want to make a backup that i can find thru a file manager so i can save it to my laptop for back up ... but i dont wana jus back up an app or two i need everything a complete system backup
Cwm will do that. My backups are saved to my sd card.

I'll also confirm that CWM is best for a full backup image. I use Titanium Backup to backup my data and apps. It works great for that purpose.

.img and md5. Use Titanium Backup to backup apps and stuff use CWM to do a full backup of everything.
I ment folder not file sorry ...
What folder are the back ups saved in . And are you able to rename them? So its not just the date and time?
I have not tried it, but you should be able to rename the folder with Root Explorer. They save in the following location:
/mnt/sdcard/ExternalSD/clockworkmod/backup

I have a folder "clockworkmod" on my sd that my backups are saved to.
So when I open the "external sd" through a file explorer, "clockworkmod" is a folder with my backups in there. From there I hookup to my pc and transfer what I want saved.

When you backup by Titanium you have *.tar.gz and *.properties files.
Those files should be in /sdcard/TitaniumBackup folder.
i did put them and i didn't see something new in titanium

You can rename the folder that contains ur nandroid backup as long as you don't put any spaces.

The backups are folders on your SD card in the ClockworkMod/backups folders.
Cheers Thankyou

how to delete back up
i make a backup using clockworkmod i accidentally save it to my internal memory.. how to delete my backup that save to the internal memory cause i cannot use my phone its always says full memory.thnx in advance
I have a rooted HTC One and when I rooted it I used to have CWM Recovery as my custom recovery. When I updated my ROM to 4.4 KitKat, CWM at the time didnt support KitKat so I switched to TWRP 2.6.3.3 which did. Thing is after doing a disk analysis of my phone, I found that the CWM backups are still on my phone and seeing as they're not compatible with TWRP plus their taking over 2GB in storage capacity, how do I get rid of them ?! I frequently make a nandroid backup of my phone in case of a worst case scenario but I would like back the storage capacity these CWM backups are taking !
P.S Using the app I used it said the CWM folder was in excess of 2.6GB so I clicked on delete but it said the folder doesnt exist ?! I'm assuming when I flashed TWRP that while CWM was uninstalled or whatnot, its backups still remained. Were are the backups located so I can manually via a PC delete them ?!
Can anyone please provide some assistance, Thanks
Go with ES File Explorer to "/" = device/mnt/sdcard/clockworkmod/backups and delete from there.
To see those backups on your computer when the One is connected, you need to move the CWM backups from above path to "/" device/data/media/0
You might want to keep them!

I use CWM ROM Manager from the Play store to manage my backups.

or you can just plug your phone into your PC and from there you can access the storage and delete from there....easier with a mouse i think.

Thing is I downloaded it and CWM folder was empty, I then downloaded a root file explorer, I located it in the root section of the phone (i.e not the SD card) and it was over 2GB in size, I deleted it but the extra storage capacity was added to the phone stats

Was or was not? Sentence sounds like you meant was not because of the use of the word 'but'. Clarify please.

My apologies ! Before deleting the folder my phone had 17.01 GB (32GB Model) of free storage, after deleting the folder it was still the same. I even rebooted the phone so the phone stats could be refreshed but it was still the same
Weird. I did the same thing as you when installing ARHD 51.0 and I don't have that folder with anything in it. Prolly cuz I wasn't making backups of that in specific though. I never found something I couldn't delete...

use a root-enabled file explorer (if you want ES, but root enabled), and go to /data/media/clockworkmod
not /data/media/0 or /sdcard, etc. just /data/media/

Download Appbak from the Play Store. The app detects .bak files and restores it.
Via the Internet

Hello patskishan,
Just found a way to use Restore feature in Xiaomi.
No need of third party apps or anything.
Use local backup feature as u have used normally. Now you will find that file in MIUI folder, find this folder in both Internal Storage and in SD card (if you have inserted SD card). If SD card used than file will be in MIUI>backup>AllBackup , and if no SD card then the file will be saved in MIUI internal storage (directoty will be same)
((i suggest if u use SD card then also search in both storages in internal as well as SD card, it can go anywhere but generally SD card if used))
Now, alongwith your .bak file you will be seeing a .xml fileā¬
This xml file is of huge importance. Copy this also with your .bak file.
When you create a local backup the last folder in which the file is saved, is a folder named after date on which you performed this backup action.
For safety purpose copy the folder as it is i.e. don't change the name of folder having name as date, after copying save it where ever u want (if in Internal, move to anywhere in SD or in computer/ & if already in SD then no problem)
Now take a new Mi phone (or perform format on your old phone depending on your situation),
Now after formatting, go in MIUI folder (either in Internal or SD card ((if used)) ), paste your backup files in MIUI>backup>AllBackup. Now open Local backup feature.
As u open u will be able to see app data files with some MB's. Click that/those file(s). As you click it, a a new page will open with Restore option.
Thanx.
