[Q] Another "sdcard\0" thread..

Soo, I know there's a lot of these threads around, but I can't find the answer I'm looking for. I'm wondering: After I flashed 4.2 I got this extra "0" folder on my internal sdcarrd. Can I just cut/paste the content of the "0" folder back to the original sdcard root? or will this have a negative effect on the storage?
Regards.

I had this issue earlier so i moved everything back to the root folder and deleted "0". If you are planning on flashing a few 4.2 roms i suggest you use the latest TWRP recovery or wait for the updated clockwork recovery because everytime you flash 4.2 roms they automatically create a 0 partition so you will end up with 0/0/0 etc depending on how many you flash

K, thanks!
I think I'll just copy the content of the "\0" folder back to the root, and stick with the ROM I'm on now. Then I'll update CWM when an update is released.

Aaargh.. I'm getting kinda pissed now..
When I try to copy the sd-content back to the root, it says that the device has stopped responding, or isn't connected. Can you tell me what is the standard root folder for the sd-content?

After installing a previous backup the was still a 0 folder so I copied all of the files to the root folder however it made the pictures unable to view

I've tried several methods to move my clockworkmod folder out of the "0" folder to the sdcard "root" to no avail.
I'm currently backing up everything from "0" to my desktop. Once that's done, how can I push the clockworkmod folder to the sdcard "root"?

Seems like there are some problems copying big folders over to the root. Try to first copy the CWM folder from your PC into some folder on the sd-root. Then, from your phone, open up a file explorer and copy the CWM folder to the root. Pretty weird, but it looks like it's working for me..
Edit: Yupp! worked for me. Hope you'll sort it out aswell.

What file explorer did you use? Every one that I've used takes me directly to the "0" folder when I hit "sdcard" thus I can't seem to paste the clockworkmod folder into sdcard root.

move it to /data/media
---------- Post added at 12:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------
here's how it works
before the virtual link to /sdcard was /data/media
cwm was writing under /data/media so cwm folder would show up under /sdcard as well
now the virtual link to /sdcard is /data/media/0
that's because of multiuser (even if multiuser is not working on phones)
cwm is still wriyinb to /data/media so cwm golder eoll mot show up under /sdcard
solutions
1. to copy cwm foldrr on pc: move cwm folder from /data/media to /data/media/0 that is to /sdcard then attach phone to pc and copy folder from sdcard
2. to restore from a backup on your vomputer: attach phone to pc, create cwm folder on sdcard andcopy h erebackup folis, copy cwm foldef from /data/media/0 into /dara/media
it is normal to have a /data/media/0 which means /sdcsrd
it is not normal to have /data/media/0/0 which means /sdcard/0
the latter happens on your second installation etc.

I haven't updated to 4.2 yet because of this sdcard/0 issue I'm reading about
I don't care much about what's on my SD card besides my Nandroid backups so the only thing for me is: can I restore a backup from CWM if I move the "clockworkmod" folder from sdcard/0 back to the root of the SD card?
I assume there's no other adverse effects of all our files and stuff being on sdcard/0 instead of just sdcard root?

read my commeny above: yes, although cumbersone, yes

I'm thinking this is the appropriate thread to post this so here I go. I flashed the newly released 4.2 rooted stock image and there were a few problems :
1. I forgot to delete the cache/dalvik cache, which created a bootloop and completely messed up my device, and I had to wipe/factory data reset from the recovery to fix it (in which case I had to lose almost all of my data)
2. I accidently overwrote an existing nandroid backup of the previous (CM 10 stable) ROM I had made to restore just in case anything happens, so I was out of options to restore my nexus to a working state. I finally had to use the crashed ROM's nandroid backup using an advanced recovery so I had my photos, videos etc intact. I got it finally working but anyways,
3. I restored my apps+data using titanium backup. I wanted to go back to my CM10 backup which I had made using ROM manager and it was still present with the rest of my data. But when I selected the backup which made, the device restarted and gave me an error stating "SD CARD MARKER NOT FOUND" :crying:
Now I'm unable to restore or even make a new backup with ROM manager. And to add, I have like three folders for storage using up too much space on my sdcard :
1. root/sdcard - I have no idea where this came from but it sure has an awful lot of my files copied there
2. root/storage/sdcard0
3. root/storage/emulated - has two subfolders : 0, legacy
All of the above locations contain the same exact files and I just want my nexus back the way it was. I know I can flash CM10 right away but I just wanna get some help on how to delete and make changes to these added folders by properly moving the files without crashing the os.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am having this issue as well and am very very annoyed. Please help. Thanks. I cannot get into recovery manually or otherwise. Keep getting Andy with the red exclamation mark in his chest and must remove battery to reboot.

Fu#k rom manager and CWM use TWRP an rom toolbox pro an you will be fine on 4.2 JB.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Update: got it working.. had to flash back cm10 stable, move files around and get back the old ROM manager backup and restore it. Its fine now. Not to mention the 4.2 ROM was pretty unstable on my nexus, causing several reboots and sometimes it froze (especially when I connected it to my desktop) and I had to remove the battery and put it back in to get it working. Moreover the 4.2 rom screwed up the file system, making my nexus' SD card unreadable on any desktop. It just wouldn't install the drivers whatsoever. I'd wait for cm10.1 than try any other custom 4.2 from now on.

You can download Root Browser Lite from play store, which gives you complete access to the root of your phone and internal files such as system/.

new /0 after every new ROM flash

every time I flash a new rom I get a new 0 folder. Right now I have my titanium backups on /0/0/0. Wtf google??
How to solve this?

There are many, many threads on this.

Thanks for the solution.

U need to upgrade to the newest clockwork mod or twrp. They both have the fix for that now.

This problem has been fixed in TWRP 2.3.2.1 here so ensure that you are running this version not an older one.
Or you may download GooManager from Play Store then install the latest TWRP recovery from it to ensure that you get the latest version

Yup! I'm on 2.3.2.1 which is the latest for the VZW Gnex (toro) and I still have that 0 folder problem every single time I flash a new 4.2 ROM. I even move all the contents of /data/media/0 to /data/media such as my Titanium Backup folders and it simply can't find the files. I noticed every boot up the 4.2 roms also make new "Android" and "Music" and "Movies" folders and when you delete them, the browser, gallery and other things won't work. This is very frustrating. I've searched high and low and I seem to be finding the same answer. Make sure you are on the latest TWRP and that'll fix the problem. It hasn't. Any other suggestions?

Actually I have a GSM GNex and I can confirm that the 0 folder problem is fixed with me using the latest TWRP (2.3.2.1). Check here for the thread of TWRP at the Verizon section maybe you can find why you still have the 0 folder problem
Regarding Titanium backup, this software is great and you can choose where to let it look for the backup instead of the regular /sdcard/TitaniumBackup/ location. All you have to do is:
1- Start/Run Titantium Backup
2- Go to Settings (the three upper right vertical dots)
3- Select "Preferences"
4- Under "BACKUP SETTINGS", click the first option which is "Backup folder location"
5- Click on "DETECT!"
6- Choose "SD card"
Then automatically it will search your SD card for the Titanium Backup and display it all for you.
Hope this helps

Any idea how to access cwm nandroid backups too? I cant find them anywhere (but i see them in cwm)

If CWM is unable to find the nandroid backup because it is moved within the new 0 folder(s), then here is what I have done when I was in the same problem :
1- Download any file explorer (I used ES File Explorer)
2- CUT (or copy if you have a lot of free storage) the "clockworkmod" folder from within the 0 Folder(s) and paste it to the main /sdcard/ location, so both the 0 Folder and the clockworkmod folder will be at /sdcard/ location now.
3- Reboot into recovery and CWM should find the nandroid backup because it is back to its correct place as it was before being moved into the 0 Folder.
I recommend that you make a copy of the clockworkmod folder to your PC before attempting any of the above steps just in case something went wrong while copying or cutting (moving) the folder so you can try copying it again. In other words, make a backup of this clockworkmod backup
Hope this helps

I think that I expressed myself wrong. If i go into cwm, and click restore, i see two cwm backups no problem. But, with a file explorer with root priviledges, they are literally nowhere to be found, i checked everywhere....

Oh sorry for misunderstanding you earlier.
I haven't encountered this before but you may try a file explorer which has a search function (such as ES File Explorer) so you search for "clockworkmod" folder or something in the whole sdcard. I hope it will find the backups for you this way.

How everywhere did you get? They must be there somewhere...
Did you try under
/mnt/sdcard
? That's the actual directory, the various others are symlinks to it.

/mnt/sdcard is a symlink. The physical file location is /data/media (or /data/media/0 in 4.2 and higher).
Edit: Specifically, the physical internal storage is found at /data/media.
/data/media is fuse mounted as /mnt/shell/emulated.
/mnt/shell/emulated/0 is then symlinked to /storage/emulated/legacy.
/storage/emulated/legacy is then symlinked to /sdcard, /mnt/sdcard, and /storage/sdcard0.
So the files seen in /sdcard are files physically located at /data/media/0. As such, files in /data/media can use space, but not be seen when looking in /sdcard.

Did you do your nandroid backup using CWM? If yes, then it will not be compatible with TWRP.
Did you use the latest TWRP 2.3.2.1 ? If not then your nandroid backup should be in sdcard/0/ after flashing PA with android 4.2 so TWRP will no longer find it. You have to copy or move the TWRP folder from within "0 Folder" to the main sdcard/ location then TWRP will recognize it again. And remember to update your TWRP to the latest version to avoid this problem again.
I hope I have covered most of the possibilities regarding your case. If not then please provide more details

So I just got the chance to flash a 4.2 and like I said it created a new 0 folder under data/media/0. I deleted the 0 folder so I would only have data/media but when I go to open the browser it doesn't do a thing. Even the gallery. And when I reboot, I see it creates the same folders I just deleted. What gives?

I have no idea why your TWRP on your verizon GNex is not helping you get rid of these 0 folders. I checked the changelog of TWRP 2.3.2.1 for the thread at the Verizon section and the Original (GSM) section and they are identical!
Anyway I have never deleted or do anything to data/media/ even for 0 Folders. I used to move the data from within the /sdcard/0/ location to /sdcard/ then delete this 0 folder on the sdcard, nothing else. I checked my 4.2 GNex now and yes there is a 0 folder in data/media/ but this is not affecting my sdcard and how apps like Titnatium and TWRP are finding the backups and related files.
You may find this guide useful as well

Can't restore clockworkmod backup.

As I've done a a handful of times, I was switching roms and did a data wipe. At that point it did something different and wiped my SD card. I thought I lost all my data, but my original backup is now located in /0/0/clockworkmod/backup -- but nothing I do can restore it. My computer won't copy it, clockworkmod doesn't recognize it, and a restore from the clockworkmod rom doesn't work....
Any ideas?

You need to move it outside of the 0 folders. The clockworkmod folder should be placed in /data/media. Easiest way would probably be to flash twrp from here http://goo.im/devs/billard412/d2spr/Flashable_recovery_US_GS3/TWRP2.3.zip using cwm and then select advance>reboot recovery. Then youll boot into twrp where you want to hit advance> file manager and go to data/media/0/0/ and move the clockworkmod folder to data/media. Once its there flash back to cwm using one from here
http://goo.im/devs/billard412/d2spr/Flashable_recovery_US_GS3 and then select reboot>recovery.and you'll be back in cwm where you can then restore

I've tried moving it. It's a very large file, and it seems to get corrupted during the move.
My SDCARD now looks like this
0/
legacy/
obb/
Inside 0/ is all the normal folders such as data, downloads, etc. While inside the rom or windows, I can not access the root sdcard folder.

Try the way I mentioned above.

I'll give it a try if this doesn't work. There's a bunch of folders such as /sdcard and /storage. Inside of /storage there is /storage/sdcard1 (internal) /storesdcard2 (external) and /storage/emulated
I'm using Cyanogen 10 on my Galaxy S3 btw. I've never seen clockworkmod put in /data/media. I'm copying it to /storage/emulated since there is a 0 and a legacy folder inside.

Because /data/media and /sdcard were the same thing. Google changed that with 4.2 which is why you now have 0 folders. Clockworkmod still sees it the old way as data/media. Trust me on this the more you play around moving stuff inside /storage and /sdcard. The more screwed up and confusing this will get.

Makes sense. I updated to a new nightly of CM10, which put me on 4.2. I didn't like the way it was setup, so I tried to revert back. I'm not sure why I'm doing all this work when I have a titanium backup from last night.
It's still pasting.

Check when its done the layout should be /data/media/clockworkmod/backup/nameofbackup/stuff inside

Well, I don't think it's going to work.
I'll give your method a try, but I moved my SD card to /storage/emulated where it showed up, and it gave me an error restoring storage. Inside clockworkmod is my backup and files.
Edit: It appears everything is a symlink. /sdcard, /data/media, and /storage/emulated are all the same symlink'ed folder.

There's no need to be passive aggressive. All I'm saying is it won't restore due to an error in the backup after moving it.

Well, I used a different file manager to move it to the same location (Root Explorer), and it works fine now. I still had to move all my files back from /0, but at least it's not fubar'ed. I'll wait for 10.1 to become more stable before I switch.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but I've had exactly the same problem and despite following the instructions in here (moving clockworkmod/backup to data/media with a root file explorer) nothing has changed.
The error shown in the log is as follows:
Error whilst restoring /system!
I: Can't partition non-vfat: datamedia
I: Can't format unknown volume: emmc
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated - an entire afternoon and evening on google have so far yielded nothing but nonsense!
Thanks,

The SD card file path issue (from the op and the most recent hijacker) reads like something that just happened to me too.
I installed a nightly cm update and then it went bad. Recovery wouldn't work, but file explorers looked OK. Recovery wouldn't even see zip files that were moved into the available directories for install.
I finally was able to use ROM manager to install rom updates and gapps.

[Q] How to clean wipe?

Hey guys wanted to know how can i clean wipe all the data folders on my phone except the new ROM file i want to flash
i have done normal formats and wipes but got so many dead/duplicated folders on it with the 0/0 and some other stuff
for exmple with root browser i got the SDCARD folder and then i got the STORAGE/SDCARD0 folder again
also got STORAGE/EMULATED/0/ and here ALSO all the files
and also on STORAGE/EMULATED/LEGACY
what am i missing guys?

The SDCARD folders are in fact only links to the real sdcard folder.
I think these links are needed because android used to have another folder structure and older apps wouldn't be able to accept the sdcard.
For a completely clean wipe you can select wipe internal data in TWRP. Maybe you can push the ROM you want to flash via ADB push. But I'm not sure about that.

Extra Directories with CWM and CM11

Hello All!
I seem to have gotten a strange directory structure after going to CWM and CM
/storage/sdcard0/
and /storage/sdcard0/0
both have the same directories underneath. With /storage/sdcard0/0 being the directory that shows up when I move stuff onto the phone and /storage/sdcard0/ being the directory that holds the CWM backups.
Is this normal? And if not is there anyway to wipe it to be normal? Even when i'm trying to install a new rom I have to use , use last directory .zip install of the normal download folder (the default one goes to /storage/sdcard0/)

I had an error like this yesterday while flashing stock rom using LGPNST and going to CM 11.
If going between CM Roms and Stock roms, keep both. Copy root to "0" folder. Easiest way
After you flash your rom, make sure you factory reset, thats what did it for me. I was using TWRP though.

Thanks for the help. I eventually figured out it was partially due to what you mentioned + clockworkmod. changing to TWRP and flashing CM11 made it all go back to normal
