Since i got the HTC 10 and rooted up and installed the custom recovery, and it asked me do a back up of the phone. Does anyone know where the location of the back up is?

It is in a folder called TWRP in either your SD card or your internal storage. Whichever one you chose as the default to back it up on

How do I fix this? I've checked the lost.dir folder and it is empty. I am not using a rooted device if it matters.

Backup the files and format the disk then copy everything back.
As above. Its fixed in the latest 1.29.401.11 so either root and flash a rom on that base or have to suck it up until you get OTA im afraid!

I've got the same issue, when i use disk usage app it shows 12GB+ of "system files" that's ridiculous but im now formatting my sd so will report back if it works or not.
As for rooting. Im not to keen on rooting just yet as the phone is still new and covered by warranty

you don't need to root to flash an RUU as long as you use the correct one depending on location/carrier
Copy files from SD card to your computer, Format the SD card in FAT32, copy items back onto SD card and done.
You shouldn't have to worry about it happening again.

Thats what i just did and it looks like its sorted for now. I think that this happened after i last updated to 3UK 1.28
what i did notice that 32GB storage however on sd only 25gb. shame really could of used that bit extra.
As I was flashing a new rom [CustoNexus, while I had a 4.2 build rom... if it matters] I noticed practically all of my sd card data migrated into a folder called '0', which is making me unable to access backup data
Why did this happen?
And I thought I'd just cut the data back into the SD card and delete this folder, just want to make sure with you guys that it's safe

I think it happens to everybody with this android version. It happened to me on my one X and tablet. As for if its safe it should work although who knows maybe the filders will appear in 0 again.

In android 4.2 sdcard handling was changed dramatically. The result is that the root of sd card is no longer where it used to be. For now on it's /sdcard/0/.
CWM has not yet been updated to support this, so it will search for backups from the root of sd.
Simply move the "clockworkmod" folder from /sdcard/0/ to /sdcard/.

CWM doesn't really bug me, it's the applications backup that did
Anyhow, my SD card was formatted when I've just installed a new rom, so no problem anymore ...
Hi all,
I've been trying to flash ROMs on my phone using my external SD card but it always fails with unable to open zip file. I can flash this properly in my internal SD card though.
Thanks!

Everything I flash is on my external. Sounds like what you use to copy the files isn't doing it properly. I use root explorer to move the files between internal and external before flashing. Double check the file sizes.
I used to use oi file manager. It copies and pastes the file fine but can't move them. You would always get "unable to move some files" but the file would be "moved"

I'm having a similar issue with a new sdcard that i got (32gb), i have tried to reformat it from the system settings and it fails from there, and then i am trying twrp and it also fails from there?
can someone please help, how can i fix this, i would really like to have the bigger card in the phone!
The day I got my 2014 Note, I put a "Team" MicroHD card in it. The device worked fine, but a reboot got it stuck at the Samsung Logo. I played around with it and somehow it booted and I didn't think about it again till yesterday, now some months later. I just figured it was new and "glitched".
Yesterday, I did a reboot and once again stuck at the Samsung logo. I could get into recovery and Download easily. I am not rooted, all stock.
I finally saw something about SD cards, pulled my card and it rebooted. Then I restarted again, no problems.
Put he card back in and stuck at boot Logo, regular as clockwork.
so some questions:
1) Can I just pull the data off and put on a new card and everything will work fine on it? I had moved a lot of programs to the SD card.
2) Should I move the data to the device and onto the new card? I'm worried about symbolic links and such. I don't know if pulling off to a windows machine would screw up permissions and what not. Maybe that doen't matter on the card since it is FAT32 anyhow?
3) This card "works" fine once the system is up and it is inserted, anyway to fix that do you think?

I'm not following ya here, can you elaborate on why this would work?
EDIT: Just noticed it needs ROOT to run
Well, I'm in a much different place now.
I rooted and installed TWRP.
The SD Booster didn't help.
No matter what I did, there was one gig of data that was on the card that the OS didn't "see" properly.
This data was the data put there by the OS when I went thru and did a lot of "Move to SD Card" actions. I could see the files in Windows but not in Android by any of the Rooted FileManagers.
So I went into TWRP and wiped that disk and Formatted it. Now the system will boot with the card in and I did a Nandroid backup in TWRP to make sure it was working OK and booted with Data on it.

I had the same problem, my n understanding is when it boots up for some reason the tablet looks for its system files on the wrong memory , I.e the sd card . It doesn't find it but keeps trying therefore stuck on a loop. I downloaded sd boosted, put the cache up and selected the option for the internal memory to be used at boot

Yeah, I had tried that with no luck. I think it may have been moving a lot to the SD card thru the manage apps aplet.

What size is this card and what file system format did you use? Can you also tell us what class the card is also.

it is 64gb and class 10.
I just formatted it in TWRP
I'd say check if it's the same with a different sd card, think generally SanDisk or samsung are the best to use

Could be kernel related and/or format related. Works fine with flars kernel and any sense rom with my exFAT-formatted SDcard, does not work so with GPE and flars GPE kernel on this SDcard.
Usually after installation FolderMount will do a check on your SDcard and offer you to reboot your device if changes are necessary. After reboot it should be good to go.
Else you should read here: Mounts2SD

At the beginning you select what folders you want moving to sdcard, you.can use the built in app analyser which shows what folders take the most space, also when you buy premium you can mount almost anything, I even mounted the full internal sdcard to the external but it's not recommended
No it does not format sdcard, the app also fixes android permission for 3rd party apps to write to external sd

Just to let you know using folder mount I've mounted my whole internal sdcard to my 64gb exfat uhs class 10 microsd card and its working flawlessly I copied a file to my internal sdcard and it actually saves it to the external card. So to some up, apps get installed on internal memory and all data that usually goes in the internal sdcard is actually moved to the external storage

How did you get it to mount the whole internal sd? I've been trying to get the whole internal mounted, and it just keeps saying the selected folder is the whole folder, please select sub directories and won't let me continue. Or did you do it for each separate sub directory.
