[Q] TWRP Recovery External Backup - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi -
I am trying to make a backup of my Kindle Fire on TWRP Recovery. I would like it to back up to my computer, because I don't have enough room on my Fire. However, under "Backup," when I press "Storage: Internal Storage (2975 MB)," nothing except the "Internal Storage (2975MB)" shows up. Also, if I could get it to backup to my computer, how would I restore it from there? Thanks for reading!!!! Please help!!!! - Ultra

[Q] [q] [help] [beers!!!!] :) galaxy S internal mem

Hello everyone, I need a little help.
Yesterday I installed the latest version of Speedmod, K12T.
I left one click lag fix installed and I had some problem, but finally I managed to make my phone to boot up. (I'm having some problems with home button).
My problem now is this:
I found phone's internal memory available around to 259 megabytes.
I don't know if it's normal, but i can't restore my last backup with backup Titanium because there is not enogh space.
What can I do?
It is possible that while "fighting" with the home button (sometimes it stays lowered down) may be I pressed something that I should not while in recovery mode, and now I have no idea what to do...
any advice? (apart from bringing the phone in assistance for replacement of the button!)
thank you again...
Sorry for my english....
I had a similar problem after flashing Darky's ressurection 9.2, and then flashed in a stock rom.
Here's what i did:
1.) Connect phone to a PC, do a backup of everything on the internal SD.
2.) Go to Settings -> "SD Card and ..."
3.) Unmount internal SD card
4.) Format Internal SD
5.) Connect again to the PC and copy back everything to the phone memory/internal SD.
Voila! All space is back.

TWRP Didn't Backup USB Storage

Hi,
After losing all the data on my phone I decided to use an old backup made from TWRP.
Now I sucessfully restored my backup to my phone and see that all the icons are in place.
But to my dismay it didn't restore the "USB storage" only the "System storage"
Shouldn't it backup *everything* on my phone?
In the USB storage I have my game/apps data and save game files.
I'm 100% sure I selected everything when backing up my phone.
Thanks.
This once happened to me too... and soon after that day I began using Titanium Backup Pro....
Weird.
I dont have this issue when i backup/restore with CWM.
It mustn't restore USB storage which means internal SD card.Only /data,/system,and,eventually,/preload.
I do use Titanium for my apps.
Is there a way or a seperate program that will make an "image copy" of my usb storage?

[Q] Accidentally wiped system and internal storage. Help!

I have a kindle fire HD 7. I made such a dumb mistake, but anyways in TWRP I was doing a wipe and wasn't being smart and wiped the internal storage along with the OS. I spent all last night trying to figure out how to fix this. ABD sideload in TWRP doesn't work, and it won't let me mount the SD storage so I can transfer a rom to it.
This would all be easily fixed if I could just somehow get a rom onto the storage to install. I ordered a factory cable and I am hoping that I can use fastboot to fix this somehow. I keep reading people that still have problems trying to get the PC to see the kindle fire with the factory cable.
Is there anything else anyone would suggest I do besides waiting for the factory cable to arrive?

Deletet all folders from Zuk Z2 pro (128GB)

hey, I have accidentally deleted all the folders and subfolders from my Zuk Z2 pro Device with my Laptop. The reason was because I had some Trojans, I wanted to remove and no antivirus or security app did help. Now as I rebooted my Device, it stays with the Zuk Booting display and nothing happend unless it restarted and comes back to the same section every 20 minutes or something. What can I do to save my phone (to have the old version of my android just like it was) or to upgrade the android Version to the new one 7.1 . thanks for your helps. Please reply as fast as possible. I really need my phone
Thnaks in advance
Same problema and i have intsalled Custom recovery show NO OS and there are no ugt for install an other rom from utg can't monte. Some help pleass
How did you get trojans on your phone?! And what makes you think that's what it was?
Okay, well, the bad news is you probably trashed all your data and will be setting up a new install as though you had done a factory reset. If /system was mounted as read-write, you probably don't get to go back to your old android just as it was unless you made a nandroid backup (that's the backup/restore option available through TWRP or CWM recoveries) and copied it to your computer before wiping. So, y'know, take a minute, take a deep breath, pour a drink, take a sip, and let that reality sink in. Sorry it happened.
I'm going to assume you're using some version of TWRP for recovery, because that's pretty much all there is for the Z2 Pro. Hopefully the 3.1.0 version from zukfans.eu, although if you got the 3.1.0 from LR.Team on the Chinese site, I'd like a download link. So just to make sure you've got nothing left, restart the phone and in the unlocked bootloader menu, go into recovery instead, go into the "Mount" button and make sure MTP is enabled, and plug into your computer with a good USB 3 type-C cable directly into a motherboard port (the factory cable can actually be kinda sketchy). If you go to This PC, see the "ZUK Z2121" MTP device, and can see "Internal memory" or "Internal storage" directory inside of that, then your MTP drivers are working correctly... and if internal memory is empty, then it's empty.
Gone.
Sorry. Take another sip and reflect on doing a backup (System, Data, Boot, and probably Persist in case you're planning on jumping between android 6 & 7) and copying that backup folder to your computer in-between each attempt to fiddle with things or start trying to sideload hacked PoGo apps from Russian sites.
Anyway, if that's truly the case and you've wiped out all the internal memory, you'll be reinstalling from scratch and you're not going to get all your stuff back.
You should probably plan to go to Advanced Wipe and clear out System, Data, Cache, Dalvik, and Boot. Don't touch Persist. Then make a new folder on the phone's internal memory (Installers or something), copy over a new ROM + Gapps, install it, reboot once into recovery just so TWRP can secure itself, then reboot into system and sign back in and start reloading all your contacts & apps & accounts & stuff.
If you have a backup, then copy it to your computer before anything else, take a backup of the current state, then restore the old backup.
In order for OTG (if that's what "ugt" is supposed to mean) to work, the adapter or thumb drive needs to actually support USB-OTG mode, and the memory card/drive needs to be 32GB or less, and formatted FAT32 (no exFAT, no 64+ gig thumb drives, boo). Go ahead and reformat it, then create a folder and copy the ROM+Gapps you want to install to it, plug it into the phone while in TWRP, go into the "mount" button and check the "USB-OTG" box, then go to Install, Select Storage, and choose "USB-OTG". Then you should be able to see the folder and install zips from the USB-OTG drive.
Good luck, and remember to take a backup and copy it to your computer for safe keeping when things are working, before you start trying to do weird things. Now finish that drink.
Memory is in Read-only Mode.

thanks for your kind reply, but unfortanetly the phone Memory ,as it get known with my computer is in Read only Mode, so I CAN NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ON IT. I can not even copy or create any folder in it. I am getting really mad on it because there is not even a proper Zuk costumer serrvice in europe for this phone and as I have contacted the chinese-Site zuk.com for support, they could also not help me.
