This new folder is normal, it's the new way android manage sdcard on android 4.2.1. This is basically because of the new multi-user support. There is great chance that the back up are there. Simply move it back to sdcard level and it should be alright.

Yes this is the answer I am looking for. And if I read the guy's issue correctly, he might be on STOCK ROM and can't find his back up maybe coz he flashed CM10.1 :)

EDIT: nope, I read his problem wrong....ooopsie!

This mod is now featured on Mobileyrup ;) Good job guys. Tried it, works well, going back to stock because while I prefer screen to cap buttons, having them and not uing them bothered me, a lot.

Posting to let you know there should be an update soon. Houstonn and I are working on something big. It's not gonna fix Capacitive keys or NFC, but it's gonna be big.

Nice! Thanks to you, Houstonn and Thracky for working so hard towards bug squashing and enhancements. You guys are like the Candian Dream Team :p

Re: CM 10.1 for Canadian Optimus G

Capacitive keys are proving to be a giant pain in the ass. I'm going to have to merge a couple bits of code at a time, build, test, and merge more. Unless LG is nice enough to give us useful JB sauce of course.

To give you a sneak peak, canadian wont be applicable anymore.

Great news!

You've got a lot of patience... hopefully the source will drop soon, save you some time and frustration.


Again, nice job all!

- losing my CWM backups, this happened when I upgraded CWM versions and I did factory and cache wipes

The backups were in
/storage/emulated/legacy/clockworkmod/backup

It took some searching but this is where to copy them for CWM 6.0.2.3 to be able to see them:
/mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup

Hopefully this info will help someone here.

It gives an md5 mismatch error when I try to restore though. I cannot do the md5 file fix because there is no md5 file just:
- system.ext4.dup
- recovery.img
- boot.img

The backup folder name is free of spaces:
- 1970-02-07.17.32.51

Update:
I did the fix for md5 and it worked, sort of:
# cd /mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup/1970-02-07.17.32.51
# md5sum *img > nandroid.md5

Then I rebooted to recovery, factory wipe, wiped caches, and format /system. Then I tried to recover from my backup, the md5 passed this time:
Erasing boot before restore....
Restoring boot image...
Restoring system....
Error while restoring /system....!

These backups were taken with the original CWM 6.0.1.9 and that version was broken. So I think my backup, which I moved to my PC for safekeeping, is useless.

Update 2:
Ohoh in trying different combinations of formatting and wiping things, I accidentally wiped my internal SDcard! My e971 doesnt have an external sd slot so I need to figure out a way to get a rom onto the internal SD card. Maybe I can do it with ADB...

Update 3:
ADB worked when in CWM

Is the documentation available in english so we can use the source? Or is this only good news because it means we are a step closer to getting it in english?

    Hi, This is a continuation of the CM 10.1 nightlies thread. Things has been moving on and we are now at CM 10.2. I have been working with xboxfanj, houstonn and bbelos to bring you this. Again, this is based on mako with adapted change for optimus G. This time we are even more in sync with CAF (Code Aurora Forum).

    What is working
    Everything.

    What is not working

    You tell me.

    Here are the repo needed for our devices :

    https://github.com/TeamPlaceHolder

    Of course, you have to be rooted, to have bootloader unlocked and a working recovery to flash this custom rom.

    DO NOT FLASH NEXUS 4 KENEL MADE BY 3rd PARTY. THIS WILL MOSTLY PERMA BRICK YOUR DEVICE.

    This is simply because people tend to use partition number and not by-name and our partition is different than nexus 4 ones. i.e. The rpm partition on our phone is the boot partition on nexus 4. So flashing a custom kernel will flash a boot.img in your rpm partition and then you are bricked. You have been warned.

    Like usually, i can't be hold responsible if you damage your phone during any of the process described in this thread.

    Thanks :

    Thracky and houstonn who also works with me on this.

    and juggie who found out the good file to change to get wifi working

    Download

    All the downloads will go here :

    ribs.bbqdroid.org

    Use geeb package

    Gapps package :

    http://goo.im/gapps

    Modem :

    There is a newer modem now available (From JB update. Houstonn and I extracted each of them and made flashable so you don't need to do the painful process of kdz only to get a new baseband)

    MAKE SURE TO NOT FLASH KOREAN MODEM.

    How to intall that rom ?

    This require you to have TWRP or CWM already installed on your device. I recommand the former. On our device, this mainly mean you have rooted your phone and unlocked the bootloader.

    Apparently, it seems these instruction where not clear enough. So I'll try to make them dumbproof. If you are not following these instruction and it doesnt work, dont expect support. It's like buying a cake mix where you only need to add milk and call the company saying their product is bull****, you added water and only got a brick. To add to this metaphor, Asking if it's because you used CWM instead of twrp or reverse is like saying : Did it didnt work because i used a fork instead of a whip to mix it ?

    To flash this rom, you have to be on older Bootloader. You can alternatively flash the bootloader i linked in this thread. Read the post carefully before you flash.

    1. Download file in the download section.
    2. Put the rom AND the gapps on your internal SDCard.
    3. Reboot into recovery.
    4. Flash CM rom.
    5. Flash Gapps package.
    6. DO A FACTORY RESET (EMPHASIS HERE)
    7. reboot into system

    There is a new build up. It has fixed bluetooth and has latest cm changes.

    Is there ANY WAY you can add to this the changes in faux123's Nexus 4 kernel (see here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/36722-kernellinux-340-makojbuvoctuncifsv001-nov-30/#entry1032460) to reduce the horrible msm_hsic_host wakelock battery drain?

    You sir, deserve a punch in the face. Come on. We are not at optimizing things. I'm still trying to figure out what is working or not. This is really stupid.

    Note to all other user : I WILL NOT ACCEPT FEATURE BEFORE EVERY PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN SOLVED.

    on a related note to your question, if you would have read carefully, you would have seen that i already use faux123 kernel . . .
    Anyway, this is not going to be the case soon.
