Hi all, firstly Im sorry for this stupid question but I cant figure it out, I want to do a factory reset, I have installed titanium backup but cannot understand what to do. If I make a backup, then factory reset wont i lose all my backups and titanium backup itself? so my question is how to do a backup of all my apps and stuff, then how to reinstall them, really hope you can explain this to me as i seem to have loads of things on my internal sd card and want to clean up but dont know how thanks
TitaniumBackup usually backups your stuff to sdcard, which should not get wiped by a factory reset. To be 100% safe you can copy the backup folder to your computer.
After the reset you will have to download titaniumbackup from market again and then you can restore what you want to restore.
EDIT: read your post again ;-).
Your /sdcard/ will not get cleaned by a factory reset.
To get everything SUPER clean, you would have to copy the backupped stuff to your computer, flash a WIPE ROM (or install stock rom and repartition).
Then you have to copy the backup from your computer to your phone install titanium again and restore your things.
If you dont use the same rom titanium could have problems restoring somethings.

thankyou will do that in the morning
I'm trying to backup my current ROM
I tried this http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/0...nandroid-backup-and-clockworkmod-rom-manager/ and it looks like it went through, but when I double checked and went back into Manage and Restore Backups there was nothing there. Then I went through Recovery into the advanced option and I got a message saying that there were no files there either. So It seems like if I follow the steps I don't get a backup file made. For the record I have no problems with Titanium Backup.
Have you tried do a backup directly through CWM, not the ROM Manager?
Via file explorer you should find your backup on your internal sd in clockworkmod/backup/

I did it directly and that seemed to work. After I did it that way there was a file in that backup folder.
I can't seem to restore my backup back to my phone...
My backup files are inside both the internal and the external SD cards. In both cards there's a folder named clockworkmod, which has a folder named backup inside, which has a folder named with the timestamp (Apr-19-Fri.19.44 for me). In the timestamp folder there are the backup files.
But, it says that no backup files are found when I tried to recover using ROM Manager, the S3 Mini Toolkit, and from the TWRP recovery.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!

You are obviously using CWM to make that backup. TWRP will never restore it. Just re-flash CWM and you are good to go
I made it with the toolkit... So I'll just flash the CWM 6.x.x.x recovery to my phone and restore from my phone's recovery mode?
I did a nandroid backup.
Copied it to pc.
Did a full wipe of phone.
Messed about with new rom but didn't like it.
Hooked phone to pc and copied the nandroid to sdcard/clockworkmod/backup (manually creating the backup folder)
Booted into recovery - no restore available.
I did a backup from recovery as a test.
Booted up, hooked phone to pc and cannot see the newest backup location from internal storage.
Back into recovery and I can see the test backup but not my actual backup.
I've done nandroid backup and restores dozens of times and have never come across this.
What am I doing wrong?
did you put the backup in the same file that the test backup is in. i dont think you can manually make a backup folder as the recovery makes it when you make a backup. i could be wrong because i always leave my backups on my phone
Did you just copy the files, or did you put the files into it's own folder within the backup folder?

I wondered if manually creating the backup folder was the issue so I deleted it and then created a backup in recovery. The issue is that the backups creating inr ecovery are not visible on the pc when I look.

I copied the file so it was placed like so:
sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2013-05-29.15.31.41
I can see the backup files using Root Explorer from the ROM I was testing.
They're in /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup which should be the same as sdcard/clockworkmod/backup on the pc, right?
I'll try copying the backup to sdcard/Download on pc then move it to the mnt/shell etc folder in root explorer.
ok, copying to download folder from pc to phone then copying from download folder to the backup location on phone worked.
no idea why sdcard/clockworkmod/backup is not recognised in CWM recovery anymore.
I did update to the 6.0.3.1 version recently so maybe that's why.
rooted, stock lollipop 5.0.2, problem started out of nowhere this afternoon...
camera won't let me take photos as it asks for an SD card. even after i insert an SD card, the error persists.
opening quickpic gives me the following errors...
Code:
not an error (code 0) could not open the database in read / write mode
Code:
unable to open database file (code 14)
can't delete ANY files manually in ES file explorer even with root explorer enabled.
booted into TWRP and cleared cache and dalvik to no avail.
seems like the phone can't read or write any data, except installing/uninstalling apps via google play still works. seems to be the same problem addressed in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/read-write-errors-advice-solved-t2323801 although i don't know how to identify the corrupt file(s) and delete them or fix permissions...
help!!
...bump?
basically wen that happens is because a file or folder is corrupted, it maybe in any place on your phone really difficult to find. That usually happens after you flash some (app, script), restore a TWRP backup, or a app that have root access doing the wrong thing.
i had this problem two times.
In the 1°, i fix by going in the TWRP, and erased my internal memory, after reboot all good.
this case was very simple i copy every file to pc, erase, after restore the one i need, and everything was fine...
In the 2°, i try that and was not successful, i need to re install the stock rom via fastboot from xml rom file to completed clean my OS.
In both cases, i was not able to make a Titaniumbackup, so i lost some data of a fill apps in the second (because i make a backup every week, if i didn't have it i probably lost everything).
If you don't use titanium, and don't wanna to loose things and app files etc, you can try copy everything on internal and external memory, by plugin on the device to a PC, after a TWRP backup of yours data, after wipe, dalvik cache, data, internal storage, cache, system, re flash the same rom you are now, and after test and see if you can write, restore the data backup.
But that data may corrupted your phone again, because the problem maybe in that.
So if after restore the data all goes bad, redo everything and do not restore data, you will lose app and data, but app can be reinstated.
:good:
