Good morning.. maybe you can help me how to successfully back up my stock rom on TWRP 3.1.0HIMA, before I install custom rom. I keep on failing on 52% on backing up system image. I got a big space on my external more than 20gig.
Thank you in advance.

If this is the answer,so I need to use the first system image I backed up as read/write and RE-flash seperately to my data?
Is the SD card formatted to exfat? Fat32 doesn't support files that are bigger than 4gb and since some of the backup files are indeed bigger this will cause a failure of the backup process.

I could swear that when i did my backup my sdcard was fat32.. I know you're right but I don't remember reformatting or repartitioning..
Maybe I'm getting too old and losing my marbles.. Or a brain tumour..

I read from a guide that you should backup those first 4 items. I'm not sure what else you can clean from the SD card though

You can quite safely delete all of these, provided everything is working as it should, personally I'd stick them all in my Android folder on my PC in case I need them in future, but they certainly don't need to be on your SD card.

thank you both!
You need the first one if you want to go back and radio s-on again. Hboot is not so important as it can be restored from an ruu if necessary.

What format should I have it in? I am totally new to SD cards since the Epic 4g and I have no idea which format works best or which one is compatible with certain ROMs. I plan on using mostly Aosp ROMs, by sometimes Freegs3 Jellybean.
Thanks for your time
Also would you guys recommend this one?

Fat32.
Format it in the phone or use SDFormatter, or just use the format it arrived in. Don't format it using a PC format program, they aren't optimized for SD cards

If you're going to buy one, just go with 64gb. Won't have to worry about an upgrade in memory for a loooong time.

yep try to format it to exfat or fat32..
And how to do that? Never had ext sd issue entire life,just this one only
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk
take the SD card out and put it in an SD card reader that you can plug into your PC (usually via USB)... then right click it and format.
PS
good format allocation size for exfat is 128
Hello everybody,
I just bought this tablet and I was looking for a way to root it.
Anybody knows if there's a known way? Would the root method for Xiron 7 work?
Antutu says "Have root access = yes" so I've tried to simply install super su but it won't work and Root cheker says that the device isn't rooted :/

ok, I did it
I used Uberizer with the choice c - 16/17/18 (in that order, I was just shooting blanks and I succeed XD)
Now I have an another big problem...
This tablet have a really good 12gb of internal storage but it is definitely useless...
I can't use it to install apps and nor I can't use SD to install app! No way to move apps into one of the two mount point.
The problem is that internal is "emulated"
I've already tried app as Folder Mount, Mount2SD and Root External 2 Internal but with no success.
Someone know a way to enable my tablet to install apps to NAND Flash (preferred) or at least onto SD Card?
or even how to redistribute the NAND to the Internal Storage (all of it)? Like I did with my Cubot One.
Thanks!!
Same problem here. impossible to install any app on sd card using this tablet. Please help.
Nevermind didnt see 2# post. sorry
Folks my M8 is now running out of space. I noticed there is an others folder but I can't find it.

I recommend the app "Disk Usage" which provides a really nice intuitive and slick graphical interface, to allow you to pretty easily determine what files are taking up all your storage: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.diskusage
But you should be aware of what the files are, and what the result of deleting them will be, before doing so. Depending on what the file is, you might want to at least copy it to your computer before deleting.
You haven't mentioned if your phone is modded (custom recovery, custom ROM, etc.) but if you have any TWRP backups or ROMs, those will usually default to internal storage (unless you've set it up otherwise) and fall under the "Other" category, and often a big consumer of that much space. In particular, a single TWRP backup can easily take up 5 GB (depending on number of apps, etc.).
You can always move important files to your external Sdcard and format internal memory ,in most cases the "other" file won't have anything that will brake your phone if deleted

That still doesn't answer the question of whether you have a TWRP backup on the phone, or not.
I gave a suggestion on how to determine what files are taking up all the storage. Did you try it?
