[Q] Sd-ext.img not found? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was restoring my phone and then while it was restoring it said Sd-ext.img not found and then restore complete. I highly doubt that it was a full restore since it only restored one folder which was .android_secure. What do I do now? Factory reset?

See if the phone operates fine with the SD card readable with no issues. If there's something wrong, do a reset.

[Q] How to resize the Cache partition

OK, so I have been running DoomKernel on my R800x for ages now and tonight I decided to try out the TurboKernel:
See post # 1234 through 1241
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1817548&page=124
I flashed it and had some issues with GB, so I formatted Cache/data/system partitions as mentioned in CosmicDans FAQ. I then booted from recoveryPLAY.img wiped all three again then ftfd back to a stock VZ ftf. Then wiped all three again via recoveryPLAY, then reflashed DK. Only to find that I despite all the wiping, ftfing, and flashing that I can only restore system & data of my nandroid backup. If I restore cache I get an error of "not enough storage". This being despite the fact that I ftfd and had it clear/erase everything. I have even repaired my sd card via my pc...... still I get the same.
Can anyone offer any ideas/suggestions how to fix this cache partition error? I believe that Turbokernel resizes the cache partition.. but even doing all the above to restore it back its still the same.... any ideas? I hav espent 3 hours trying to repair this to no avail... and I am out of ideas.... thank you in advance.
One thing I forgot to mention is that when I attempt to restore my apps as half are missing from the system drawer TB loads but during restore process it just hangs... anyone have any ideas?
I just FTFd again and tried to restore my cache but it spit back as "error: cache/log/ not enough storage...

Anyone?!?!
OK< somehow I got it to restore the cache without any lack of storage issues, however now my sdcard wont mount when the phone is booted up. Any ideas how to get the card to mount on bootup?
nevermind...
Forgot to mention that yes I did go to the storage menu under settings, everything is greyed out excpet the safe unmount when battery cover is removed.

Carbon Backup Problem with SGS3

Hello, I'm having an issue with my Galaxy S3. I made a backup today before updating and I also reformated and wiped my phone completely. I tried restoring from Carbon (from internal and sd memory, I copied off of the computer) and at first from the SD card it worked, then it stopped. It didn't work anymore. It just got stuck at restoring. I uninstalled the app, cleared cache, restarted, even recopied all the data again. The data that previously had copied, stopped when I tried to restore again. It just gets stuck at restoring. Then if I leave it it says that it had sent a log to the developer. What can I do? I want to restore my data :-\. I'm not rooted. Just using stock Android latest build from DBT.
Any ideas? Please! I can't figure this one out :-\.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Weird!

Hey everyone.
Well, I'm getting back into rooting devices and changing roms etc... So, last night I refreshed myself (it's been a few years) and decided to flash Chameleon OS. With that said, I backed up some OS data by using My Backup. I also did a Nandroid backup, wiped my SD card (full of junk), and performed a system reset, cache wipe, and Dalvik cache wipe. Afterwhich, Chameleon installed fine; however, my SD card now has ALL of the junk back on it again. I still see old references to pictures, apps, and db files. As a result Chameleon, is not running at its best. Can someone tell me how/why my data was restored to my SD card?
Also, the backup I created using My Backup is no longer on my SD card. I re-downloaded to app after flashing Chameleon and attempted to perform a restore of my APN data...needless to say, My Backup reported that it could not find the backup on my SD card. Presumably due to the restoration of the old junk back to my SD card????
Can someone shed on light on this??
Thanks.

You can try and backup your SD Card on your PC and then format the card, and copy back the data.

[Q] Looping after CWM restore: com.google.process.gapps has stopped, Sprint GSIII

I did a Clockworkmod backup (and also a titanium paid version backup) on my towel rooted Sprint GS 3, kitkat 4.4.2. I renamed the backup, using CWM's option to do so.
I then did a factory reset using the msl number (as directed by my carriers tech support because I was getting duplicate text messages).
I then discovered that my titanium backups were apparently not on my external sd card, but were in the internal storage.
Titanium also cannot appears to be somehow locked out of the sd card.
And oddly, when I installed the Waze app, all I get now is a black screen.
I then attempted to restore the phone using CWM (first time doing this)
When I attempted the restore, CWM did not find the backup on the SD card. I found the backup by going into "advanced" options and found it there in a directory called "SD1"
After restore of system and then restore of data,
The phone went into a loop, showing the message, " com.google.process.gapps has stopped."
Pressing "ok", just brings the message back over and over.
I tried wiping the Dalvik cache, and I tried booting into safe mode - no change.
I am supposed to do something different to get a Clockworkmod restore? I thought it would bring the phone back to it's exact state at the time of the backup using an image stored on the SD card.
And now I can't get at my Titanium backups unless I first get the CWM restore working so I get access since the titanium backup was, I believe, put in internal storage... (guess I need a separate thread about how to get titanium working... I can't get backup directory access with titanium after the factory reset)
How do I get CWM to do a restore from the image on my SD card?
Thanks for your thoughts and any help!
