try that?

I did. TiBu can see the folder and see the directory. It just says it is "not writable" with a red box in the folder list on the External SD; the internal storage is OK. With other 4.2 ROMs I have no issues with TiBu finding and using the External SD files.

Do you have TiBu backups on your external SD with this ROM?

I just had the same issue. Tried searching whole device and manually selecting external SD card. Tried both external SD card and SD card 1. No dice.

Open up the terminal app (or download from the market) and type in these two commands.. It may fix your write issue.


su
mount -o remount,rw /system

This is running really well for me.
-For some reason GPS works incredibly well on 4.2 builds verses 4.1 builds for my phone.
-I'm getting a YouTube fc only on reboots (very minor issue). (I've tried fix perms, but not clearing data or uninstalling reinstalling yet)
-Everything else I've tried (i dont use BT) has worked as expected.
-My alarm volume worked fine after adjusting it once. (first morning it was silent)
-Titanium backup. I just searched the whole device and it found my back ups no problem. (i store mine on extsd card)
-Future enhancement. I'd like to be able to rearrange and choose which tiles to use and not use on the 2 finger pull down.


thanks for the rom!

Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't help.

TiBu can restore from the directory, but it cannot save to it. It gives the error "Backup failed. Insufficient Storage space." This was trying to save 1 app with 12 G free.

Did you try clearing the TiBu data/cache or changing the directory it saves the backup to by chance?

You have to physically move your backups from their current location. What I did was make a backup and search for it using root explorer. Then take balmy old backups and relocate them. FYI I do this now. I flash dirty then create a backup then factory reset then restore data. I keep apps without the dirtiness. Plus I don't have to go hunting cuz I hate hunting for stuff I can't eat.

I did try changing the backup directory.

I have scanned for backup locations and selected or just browsed. On the sdcard1, TiBu always shows that "This folder is not writable". Total Commander and ES File Explorer can read and write to sdcard1 with no issues.

On the virtual sdcard, TiBu is fine -- backups can be read and saved. On the real sdcard (sdcard1), TiBu can read from an existing folder, but cannot save to an existing folder or a new one.
