Help "data/media/0" - LG Optimus G (International)

Hi.
I have an e975 and flashed philz cwm recovery (in the thread says "kit kat ready"), then flashed omnirom (excellent rom) but it installed in data/media/0 instead of data/media, why is that? In philz recovery --> advanced I specified data/media.
Can anyone help me solve that problem? It's annoying to have to move all my data from one place to another and back if I decide to restore to where I was.
Thank you

Android 4.1 has no multiuser function
since 4.2 there is multiuser option
User 1 has as storage sdcard/0, user2 sdcard/10, user3 sdcard/20, .... thats the "problem"

Any way to solve it? I've been reading and it says I have to update my cwm version but I have the latest and still the same problem

I think you got the media storage option in philz recovery in wrong way....its not to specify the media path for rom rather its to specify the media path for the recovery to do backup and restore your rom...:good:

Could you explain yourself in a better way? Maybe a screenshot of where to specify the correct path or something, because I can't find the option in philz cwm

What @hasan4791 is trying to say is that the path you specify in PhilZ recovery (the last option under Advanced) has nothing to do with how ROM is using the storage, and where it puts the data. It's strictly for the recovery itself. The folder structure for user data is different between Android versions, as already explained. It's the way it is, there is nothing to fix...

It couldn't be more clear. Thanks for the lesson.
Thread closed.
One more thing, if we like to jump from rom to rom, better is to move al our files to data/media/0, so every rom can see them, that's why I opened this thread, because I flashed 4.4 and all of my files were gone

[Solved]How to wipe sdcard?

I would like to wipe the sdcard storage, but I don't know if it's possible...
I have a gsm galaxy nexus, rooted, unlocked, not official JB Rom, with the last version of CWM.
I'm worried because of the clockwordmod folder, which contains the backups (which I don't want to save). Is this folder necessary for the program to work?
If there's no problem, is there a way to do that in recovery mode?
Of course I'll do that when changing new Rom, just to avoid apps problems.
Sorry about my English.

you don't need the clockworkmod folder on your internal sdcard for CWM recovery to work on your phone. If you wipe the sdcard, you'll lose any back-ups, but the recovery will work fine.
Within CWM recovery, go to "mounts and storage" and then "format /sdcard", and that will wipe it.
edit to add:
while this will wipe your sdcard, there is no need to format /sdcard before flashing a new ROM. as long as you wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache, you should be good to go to install a new ROM.

Thanks for the answer. I know I don't need to wipe sdcard, is just that I have installed so many apps, and there are a lot of folders (the app Sd Maid don't clean everything) that I don't need, and I would like to clean it.

How to install custom rom...

for installing custom rom u need to copy the zip file into sd card and boot the phone into bootloader by turning the phone off and then press volume down and power key until the bootloader screen appears then select recovery in the bootloader menu by moving to it with volume keys and then press power key a screen will appear with multiple options select the option ''Install from zip'' and select the desired zip and install it after it phone will reboot then reboot it in bootloader mode and flash the desired kernel and reboot it u have successfully installed custom rom..
i hope it helped...
Flashing
You can flash the kernel (boot.img) after installing the rom.zip. But I prefer to do that before flashing the rom. In Clock Work Mod I then ussually wipe Dalvik cache and the cache partition.
Before install the new kernel run a kernel cleaner for possible data lost....

[Q] Need some help

I flashed the Paranoid 3.6 rom and it deleted everything from my internal sd so ok, i put everything in back again and now was about to change roms from Paranoid to Pacman but i saw that my "sd" was different than how it should be (it had the first files. Had with the paranoid zip and gapps instead of the pacman and everything i just inserted) so it lookd like there were two internal sd (one inside of another) and i tried restoring from inside the phone to delete every file so i won't have them twice (didn't work) and as last choise i tried to format the sd from CWM and i did, the thing is that first i had deleted the system, made all the wipes like i was going to flash a new rom and now i have nothing in the internal SD to flash and have no system to run :| when i boot on the phone it just flashes the LG logo and turn back off. All i can do is get into fastboot mode and get into CWM.
How can i solve this if my pc doesn't let me either get anything inside the SD or even recognizes the phone?
Thanks.
No one? .-.
Up up and away.

Exactly
If you deleted system and then sdcard you need to adb push a Rom while in CWM and then flash it.

All customs Roms crash and reboot.

Greetings friends of the Forum. I installed and uninstalled many roms, now appeared a bug that I do not know if it is caused for had made many installed Roms customs. with all the customs ROMs every often and with a simple tasks like opening an app the Xperia ZL crash about 2 or 3 minutes and then reboot. So my question is how to make a Super Wipe from Recovery? I mean clean the whole phone (Except MicroSD) so deleted safely all the data in the internal memory and phone for then I can Installs a rom Stock (*. tft). Right now I already Flashed Stock Rom, through Flashtool, the last versiĆ³n (.569) and I am testing it to see if the bug is fixed and see if the failure appeared only with the customs roms. I want to make you know that I have used Custom roms Stable and nightlys and both versions crashed and rebooted.

Hi, Do you mean I have to do:
Format System
Format Data
Format Cache
Format sdcard
For a super wipe and super clean and then install the new rom?
Is those 4 process safe?

Don't wipe sdcard, that is your sdcard and you may have files there you don't want wiped. System, data, cache, and dalvik-cache are the ones to wipe.

Shouldn't be an issue... are you still having problems?
If you're having problems, and don't care about anything on your phone...
Pull your external SD, and use the Sony tool to flash a clean downloaded sony stock rom to your phone.
You'll lose root, but if you're having problems anyway, it might be a good idea to just go back to a complete factory reset...

In recovery, before installing the rom,
goto mounts and storage then select
Format data
Format cache
It will erase all ur apps so take a backup before.

[Urgent] Corrupt data warning, extract /sdcard/

My friends tried to reboot the phone, and as there was a pattern on startup, they tried and failed. But when i tried to unlock the phone with right pattern, it shows me a screen with "Decryption unsuccessful. The password you entered is correct, but unfortunately your data is corrupt. To resume, you need to factory reset the phone."
Now, the pattern does not work in TWRP as well, it shows decryption unsuccessful on correct pattern. I need to extract the data from sdcard somehow, then i can wipe it. But not able to access sdcard. Is there any way without wiping /sdcard/?
I have a previously made nandroid backup, that's it. But due to TWRP not able to decrypt storage, it fails to restore.
If I were in your shoes, I would reboot in fastboot mode and I would install TWRP v3.0.4-1 again. Once I were in twrp, from file manager I would go to data/system and I would delete the 2 "*.*key" files and the 3 "lock*.*" files. Then, I would reboot system and so on...

Reboot to recovery and then, connect your device to the pc. In this way, try to access to the sdcard. If you have success, you can copy your nandroid to the pc. If you can't, you will have to do a full reset and reinstall a new rom.

Yes, you don't need to do wipe for internal sd card to install a rom. Try it, but if after that you can't read it, you will have to format the internal memory and you will lose its data

If you couldn't install it yet, you can still try another way.
Install stock recovery and then, install stock rom by sideload. In this way, I think it won't format internal sd card. Then, you can install TWRP recovery again. If after all you can 't read the internal sd card, you will have to format it. I don't know what else you can do.

even op3 stock recovery is asking for pattern, and the correct pattern doesn't work on it as well.
One thing is that i am able to restore my system data from TWRP from the backup, but the data while restoring shows error on f2fs. Can anything be done with it?
