Hi,
I havent seen this question asked already and it might be a dumb question but im going to buy a new SD card today to replace my original 2GB one from my Desire. And currently im running the Leedroid 3.3.3 ROM. When i get my new SD card, would i have to re-flash Leedroid onto my phone again. Or would i just have to partition the SD card and then everything should work as normal?
Thanks In Advance
reflash, because of a2sd
Would i have to do a full wipe and then flash? Or can i just flash it straight over the top of the original one?

Also would i be able to do a nandroid backup to my SD card which i have now? And then when ive partitioned my new SD card. Put the nandroid backup files onto the 8GB card and then should it be able to bring everything backup again? Eg Leedroid and etc

Yes you can do this. It will work as long as none of the files get corrupted.

Okaay thanks, also i cant find my micro sd adapter at the moment. Is it possible if i did a nandroid backup to my 2GB card and then put the nandroid files onto my computers hard drive. And then put the 8GB card in the phone and transfer it onto the 8GB card. And then powered my phone down and then booted into recovery mode. Would i be able to restore by nandroid files from the SD?
Yes. As long as you put it in the exact same folder path. Just copy the entire clockworkmod folder instead of just the nandroid files.

Do a nand backup of your current rom on your current sd card. Then partition your new SD card the same way you partitioned your original card. Maybe even increasing your EXT size if you want.
Now transfer all the files on your fat partition from old SD to the new. Make sure you copy the clockworkmod folder where the nand backup file was saved.
Put the new card on your phone and reboot to recovery and do a nand restore. That should do it.
If I missed out anything or something is not correct with what I said please correct me.
Good luck.

I tried exactly what you said and it didn't work, i get stuck in a bootloop after doing the nandroid recovery on the new SD card. Thankfully everything works fine when i put the old SD card and do the same nandroid recovery. I don't know if this matters but im using LeeDrOiD 3.3.3 R5 and i installed his "Dalvik Cache to /sdext" file and when im in recovery mode i get messages saying "cant mount sdext".
Would be very thankful if anyone could help me out
I hate to pee on bonfires but I've had limited success with SD cards. Some seem to accept EXT, others don't. I even got a 16Gb card that turned out to be a 32Gb card but it won't accept the EXT. Some you win....

I think I tried that too as well (Along with wipe cache partition), although i'm not sure if I did it before restoring or after restoring (i most likely did it both before and after), will try again and let you know.
ok here is the situation, i got clockwork recovery installed and wiped all data to flash a new rom, but my phone wont read the memory card so i cant flash the rom. How do i mount the phone to move the rom over to the internal storage with clockwork or how do i flash a rom using odin.
Does the phone boot up? If so, are you saying that the SDcard isn't being mounted or are you referring to inside clockwork?
the phone boots up, but i dont know how to put the rom in the phone so clockworks will see it
Im trying to mount the sd in clockwork but my computer is not seeing it, any ideas?
Get an actual sd card
Dont use the phones virtual sd card

In the blue clockwork, go to install zip from sd card, then select the option above the "go back" option, I believe its choose from external or something.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Edit:
you can flash from the external from the external sdcard if you go to
Mounts and storage
and mount emmc - if you have the option. Once that is done go to flash zip from sdcard, then (and this part is counter intuitive but) select
Internal sdcard - and this will actually take you to your external sdcard.

It depends on what kernel your running. Some kernels with CWM are not "fixed" to see the external sd card. To make things worse some of the kernels won't allow usb mounting. I'm on Chris41g's kernel and it does in fact see and flash from the external sd.

Hello everyone, I am new to rooting and accidentally installed a nandroid to my internal sd card while trying to put it on my external sd card. I plugged my phone into my computer and deleted the backup files from the Clockwork folder. For some reason though, it keeps showing on my phone in Miscellaneous files that Clockwork mod recovery is taking up a little less than 2gb. Can someone help me fix this?
Thanks in advance!

When you plug into the computer you will see:
Phone (This is really the internal sdcard)
Sdcard (This is the external sdcard)
If you want to get them off the internal sdcard you need to delete them from the phone folder and leave them in the sdcard folder.

I'd familiarize yourself with a file explorer like esfile explorer (best one imo) and you can delete these backups on your phone from your phone, doesn't matter if it's on the internal sd or external sd.

I use twrp but I still have my stock rooted rom saved with cwm, unless you deleted the folder it should be in the clockworkmod folder
Ok everyone so it seems that I deleted the backup but CWM is still taking up 1.6gb of internal storage. Is this normal, or is this the nandroid I deleted that is still showing?
Newer versions of cwm also store other data (cont remember the name of the folder) to support incremental backups. Maybe that is still there?

That's too much data to be residual, I'd say your backup is in a folder some place in the internal sd

Where should I check?
Idk where it would be if not in the cwm folder, did you try rebooting your phone just to be sure it didn't go tard on you after you deleted it and is now giving you a false reading?
Something I was thinking about is just wiping my internal and external sd card to start fresh. What effect would this have on my root and unlocked bootloader?
OK so I found the problem. I never deleted the blobs files. This is what is taking up so much space. Is it safe to delete these files?
EDIT: I went into CWM recovery and selected free nandroid space and it deleted the blobs not associated with a backup.

Ahh good a happy ending
Yup. The blobs. That is the incremental data that I was talking about before. That is what the new version of cwm uses to avoid duplicating data in successive backups.

A little while back I posted a thread asking the following.
"Just recently rooted my friend's GN2, I transfered the files to the SD card and went into CWM recovery. I'm having 2 issues.
1: The phone says there's not enough room to make a backup when there clearly is. I have about 2 gigs on the internal, but but it either says I have 3mb of free space or 0.
2: I click 'install from SD' and the only file it sees is "-clockworkmod/ ".
What am I doing wrong? I personally have an S2 and it's very similar but these two things are preventing me from flashing any rom"
The only person to respond recommended I format the sd card so I did so. However the phone still did not recognize any files in the sd card so I couldn't flash any rom. Upon startup it began boot looping and the phone is no longer activated? It can't make calls or send texts and reboots every minute upon ' failed activation'. The phone currently is useless. I'm not new to flashing roms I've been doing it for years but this is the first time I'm stumped thanks to some bad advice (not blaming that person) and it's not even my phone. Luckily I just got an htc one and I could give my friend the my s2 until the problem is fixed...any ideas how to fix it? Or unroot at least to bring in for repair?

Try using twrp instead. Sorry I couldny be more help. But I have never used cwm on this phone since I got it. Only twrp. You can find it in original dev section.

Yes use twrp. Find the latest version and flash it in clockwork. I havent used cwm since my og evo lol.
Maybe I'm old school but I'm a long time flasher and I've always just been more comfortable with cwm. But I'm not so sure it's a kernel issue?
Edit: and the issue is that I can't flash anything because I can't store anything on the sd card. I'm thinking of odining to a stock build?

The only thing I can suggest is doing a quick format on the SD card to FAT32, especially if the card is a 64 GB card. Also, some Sandisk 64 GB cards were bad from the factory, so check that too. Finally, if all else fails, try breaking the phone even more to the point it won't even boot and get a replacement.

Don't come up with one. Just take it in and show them. Before you take it in, if you can, try to reset the flash counter. If they can check that and see it isn't correct, you're in trouble. If it's reset or it can't be checked, then take it in.

Ok...what files did you transfer to the sd card? Was it the internal or external? Even 2 gigs on the internal for a backup may not be enough. I have a backup that is just over 3 gigs. As far as formatting your external sd what did you do ? Fat32? Personally TWRP is the way to go. Try to format fat 32, download a stock rooted TW rom and put on external sd, also dl TWRP recovery to external sd. Boot into cwm recovery and try to flash twrp. If that works out pull battery put back in volume up+home+power. Hopefully that gets you to twrp, if so go to wipe then factory reset. If you click on advanced it will let you wipe system which couldn't hurt. After that, back arrow on bottom of screen to twrp home screen. Click install...choose external then locate where rom is...hopefully on root of external and see if that helps.
Oh and was the phone activated prior to flashing?

Please do the following:
01). Format the SD card to FAT32 (NOT EXFAT OR NTFS) on ANOTHER computer and do NOT use the built in windows format options. Use a third party tool like guiformat.exe and do NOT USE QUICK FORMAT. (With my current sd card, windows format failed, guiformat.exe partially failed(and by failed I mean formatted fine but caused problems being seen) but I installed and used eausus partition master to regular format it to fat32 and followed the next few steps and its been working fine ever since.
02). Immediately after formatting the SD card slow format to fat32 in easus partition master create a text file on the sd card in its root directory (I've had an issue before where my SD card would not be seen or writable by certain devices if the root directory was 100% empty), before you copy any further files insert the SD card into the phone and use your recovery kernel(CWM/TWRP) to navigate to the root directory of the sd card and insure that you can in fact see the text file you created, POWER OFF THE PHONE(or alternatively unmount it in android terminal if possible) before removing or inserting the SD card(also always eject from the PC before removing, do not just rip it out off the usb slot/card reader), insert the SD card back into your PC/card reader and copy TWRP to the sd card.
03). Boot back into your current recovery and Install TWRP(if it's not already) you may prefer CWM but TWRP just causes people a lot less bugs in general.
04). Verify in the backup section of TRWP that you have explicitly selected external storage as the backup location and given the backup a name, as internal storage is selected by default, and you very well may not have enough free internal storage for the backup, regardless of whatever reasons you think you should.
05). Its probably a good idea to turn off md5 verification of the backup, I do this every time, the one time I did try to verify a backup with an md5 checksum it failed, I unchecked this option backed up restored to it and all was fine(and still is), also a good idea to uncheck md5 when installing roms/kernels/apk's as most don't have md5.
05). If the above does not work you probably have a bad SD card, try another and post back here.

There is
no external sd card in the phone. Just a 16g internal, and I've wiped pretty much everything so there shouldn't be a problem with room. I'll go out and buy an external and attempt to flash something.

It should not rely on the internal. Download mode is deep down in the bootloader. If you borked that then jtag or sending it to samsung/asurion is the only option.

Try a stock rooted rom and see if it works. Because it should at least give you the boot.img in the rom so you might be able to get past the boot screen. Hopefully it will re partition your phone. Im not for sure but its worth a shot.

Hi folks I'm new here so go easy on me
I recently installed CyanogenMod via the installer but I mid the s-pen functions more than I anticipated so I have been looking at the different ROMs on here and decided to try Phoenix ROM. when I downloaded the ROM and super clean as described in the instructions I placed them both on my ext SD card but I can't flash from ext SD via Phil's cwm as it doesn't find the SD card it says its not mounted. Is it OK to place the 2 files on my phone root directory to flash from there or will super clean wipe them from there too before I can flash the ROM.
Thanks in advance

if you use a super clean wipe Zootscript Megawipe to clean, yes it will erase your internal USB storage.

switch off and remove battery and place the ext sd and boot up and see if it detects on phone now proceed to recovery and wipe there u can even find a ption to mount internal storage so after the wipe u can place your file to internal sd but before doing anything just verify if the mount is working and if the ext sd has detected or not
Tried that but no success still says unable to mount path no matter what I try to do withe the external SD it works fine from the phone just not during recovery. Could it be a bug in cm 10.2
How do I get the ROM to the internal SD if I mount it with recovery can I connect it to my laptop and transfer of over from it.

I've tried formating the SD card to fat32 and flashed the latest cwm recovery and still no joy with being able to use the external SD to flash from. So if I do the super wipe how do I get the zip file for Phoenix ROM or any other ROM for that matter onto the phone to flash it
well, i am not sure it will work or not,
but have you try with OTG cable + thumbsdriver/ pen driver with the rom in it to connected to your phone to flash in recovery ?
if this dont work, probably u will need a brand new memory card for sure
Well i finally got it sorted i flashed the latest cwm recovery again using the internal memory and it worked i can now access the external sd card from recovery so im now running phoeniX v14 and sofar im impressed and glad to have s-pen functionality back again
