Help me i really need some stuff on this rom
Put your SD card in your PC and find your clockworkmod folder and backup folder and rename your back up folder that you want to back up to with a date
i.e 2010-09-23.02.35.00
And it should work fine. I almost went postal on everyone around me because I thought I bricked my phone. Rough stuff when your messing with ROM root nandroid and such. I should be a pro before too long.

BLAH! Didn't work for me.. I had renamed it via clockwork to a name, and then the MD5 mismatched, and I searched and founf this thread, and so I tried renaming it, but it still mismatches...**** me..
Im having a similar problem with my incredible, so you think this would work just as well?
Yes, just rename the file on the pc, just have no spaces. Underscores, hyphens, and periods are fine.
i'm having similar issue with htc evo 4g but SD Card is MicroSD does not appear to fit in my PC SD slot. do some PC's have microSD and others don't? is there another option to rename my back up using micro SD card and a PC?

You need a micro sd adapter to mount it to the pc.

I know this is an old thread but I wanted to say that this worked for me! I found that I had a space in my restore name and when I took it out I was back in business!

I attached an image. I'm using Unrevoked. Also, the phone no longer asks me if I want to charge only or mount the phone as a storage device etc when I plug it in. It just starts charging and I can still browse all the files on the SD card through the Windows Explorer browser.
It sounds like your Evo is not reading your SD Card. Can you browse to it in a file manager?
I think I got it working now. Thanks.
Once I have everything backed up to /sdcard/Titanium do I copy that to my PC somewhere so if I decide to flash a custom ROM I would then copy it back onto the SD card and restore? Is that the idea?

You don't have to copy it to your PC. Flashing a new rom won't touch your SD Card unless your format it or partition it for Apps2sd
Has anyone used titanium to move from another device to the evo?
Coming from the hero, I'm wondering if I can put my hero's sdcard in the evo and go from there...

I did. When coming from my nexus to the evo. You need to make sure you format your Apps2sd partition (if you use one) though. Other than that, it worked fine for me

Cool, thanks
I used a2sd on the hero but wasn't planning to right of with this one.
I copied all my titanium stuff to the evo, will see if it works w/o a2sd
I just bought a 16gb class 10 sd card. Now I am using the one that came with the phone. I thought I can copy and paste the files on the 8gig card to the 16 gig card and should be all set. I copied all files to the new card and the phone doesnt want to boot up. I believe to have a ext on the card that i am using now but I dont know if that matters. If I do have an ext or partition on the card, how can I find out? Any suggestions?? Thanks..
Format the new card, put it in the phone and boot up, then copy everything from the 8 gig
thank you...I will try that..
Let the PHONE format the card. then pull the card and copy only the selected needed files. nothing more. :-D but yeah. a class 10 card IS WHAT SHOULD have been installed in our phones. our phone doesn't support the max speed. but it is truely faster even when connected to the USB port. I tested before and after and did see a difference in speed. But for the normal use, it won't help. lol
its worked....Thank you
"...then pull the card and copy only the selected needed files. nothing more."
Could you (or anyone knowledgeable) elaborate on what the "needed files" are, please? I'm asking because my SD card just recently crapped out on me. Entirely. Crapped. Out. I couldn't even get my pc to pick it up w/ an adapter. However, the good news is that I recently did a nandroid backup and had copied it, along with all of my pics and vids to my PC.
So, I now have a brand new SD card and a folder on my PC that contains my recent nandroid, a bunch of pics, and some vids, but nothing else. I never bothered moving all of the other files to my PC. In hindsight, I guess I was prepared for a flashing fail, but not for an SD card fail
My question is this: What additional files do I need to move to my sd card to keep operating smoothly, including future rom-flashing and nandroid backups?
Do I need to add a recovery file (Amon RA or CWM) manually? Or can I just re-download CWM from the market and flash alternate recovery? What other important files am I forgetting?
Thanks.
I'm almost positive that this question can be answered with common sense...but just in case:
My SD card is running low on memory and I was wondering about whether or not I can delete the ROM .zip folder from my SD card after flashing it. Or does the .zip folder need to be on the card for the ROM to boot up? Any help would be great. Thanks in advance!

Yes you can if you have already installed the zip. You can also remove nandroid backups if you have them on your computer. You can push them all back to the phone while connected and in recovery.

Thank you. I don't really mess around with adb just because my computer and my phone do not get along at all. It won't even recognize my SD card when I connect it through the phone. I have to put the card in a special SD card reader.

Actually if you're using Amon Ra recovery (recommended by every dev I've seen), you can access your sd card on your pc using the "USB toggle" menu option. (Saved me once when I accidentally wiped my sd card before flashing a new rom).
Of course if you still can't access the sd using that option, then that's a hardware issue, yes?
Dear All,
Please guys I'd like to Change my 8GB SD to 32 GB SD Class 10 without loss any Data in my Desire HD non rooted.
Waiting for who can help me.
Thanks in advance & Best Regards,
Batreky
Note : My phone too Slow in restarting while loading the android systems and it take like 5 mins or more to use it normally. So please any Help with this as I'm still in Stock and don't like to make and root.
By search Deleted the task killer apps & non used apps & move the most app from Phone to SD card to make a good free space in the phone storage and nothing changed. ?
Waiting for genius Guys.
Thanks in advance
...assuming you're on stock DHD RUU, I would switch off your phone, take out the SD and just literally connect both cards to a PC, then copy all content from one card to another... making sure all hidden files are accounted for as well.
After that, you plug in your new SD into the phone and switch it on...
You technically don't lose data since you've still got the old SD Card you've copied from anyway. ^_^

Hi,
Just connect your device as HDD to your PC and copy all files and folders from the old card to your PC. Then change the cards in the device and copy all files and folders back to the device. That's all

...no problem.. ^_~
As mention before just a copy and paste will do.
If you have some games installed (Gameloft for exemple) they will check for files and just let them do their job as they will imediately look for the content in the new SD.
If you want to make sure your date will be saved you can also use Titanium backup and just backup the data, not the apps!
Then if you miss something later you can import and it will import related to the app

...horses for courses I guess.
I've got two MicroSD to USB adapters, I just plug both in and let it do its business without having to take the extra step of copying from computer to new SD.. ^_^
Having said that, I would recommend you do a full format to fat32 on your new SDCARD... preferably with the linux Gparted tool.
...probably unnecessary, but I personally make it a point to ensure a 'clean slate' whenever I start with a new SDCard, with hopes of avoiding disaster later down the line... >_<

I just bought My Samsung 32GB SD Class 10 From Korea Directly to be sure it's not Fake one lol
Regarding the formating the sd I normally put the empty card on the phone and format via phone to be extra sure it will definitely work 100%. Then just copy as stated on previous posts.
Have a nice time with you new card. I have the same one and I love it. Much faster

I was using Philz on my one m8 gsm edition and I accidentally pressed "wipe all data/factory reset" and so my nandroid backups don't exist anymore. I have some on my laptop but when I connect my phone using usb, the phone doesn't even show up. All I can do is access recovery because technically there's no rom in my phone anymore. Please help, what can I do to push my old recoveries on my laptop to my phone or at least restore my phone to stock?
I know I can download a zip to my micro sd card but my laptop doesn't have a micro sd card slot. I guess I have to use ADB? However, I'm a noob so I don't know how to use ADB with philz. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance!
Enter recovery and adb sideload rom/backup. This also happended to me in younger years with a device without sd card. Lucky you the M8 got one. Unlucky you your laptop does not have a card reader. But, you can trick somehow.
If you have a digicam with sd card use it and copy files via digicam on sd
OR (easier):
Check M8 Toolkit
Hassle free solution is to buy a USB microSD card adapter or an SD card to microSD adapter if you have a slot on your laptop/PC. I got one for £1 and it has proved useful.
Yeah, I lost everything in my first days of the device... Still don't know why even. Regardless, my daughters Tab 3 saved me with its micro SD. I downloaded a rom onto it, popped it in my M8 and I was back up.
Good safety net having a way to transfer to a micro SD, aside from your M8. ?

I had issues with Adb and transfer failing... The card made life easy!
i had to use a otg cable and thumbdrive to put my OS back on the same happened to me when i first learned all this stuff on a m7........just remember there is always a way
