I installed 2.8.1.0 again to pull a log - but what should I say - now the backup works. Strange.
Cool is the new counter for files and size! Thank you!
Jaja same thing happened to me! Couldn't replicate the error... :confused:

@F4k: In both recoveries (2.7.1.0 and 2.8.1.0) i have no adb debug but adb sideload is working. There is nothing dedected in my pc while in the recovery. Any hints to get the adb debug working?

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");

in updater-script. and there are 3

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");

I suppose that you're using a recovery like my TWRP with F2FS support.

You'll need to format manually partitions that you want to be on F2FS, and change:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");

to:

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");

change:

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata", "/data");

to:

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");

thanks for the answer. i will try tomorrow and give you feedback.
i don't want to be a pain in the a**. i come from s3 mini, and there we have a rom built with aroma, and so, we could choose things from the installer.
i am not yet used to modify things in rom.zip, but i like cm and i will learn anything it takes to flash this latest rom, official or unofficial.

hi
and thanks

Is it this same procedure?

For TWRP
1.1) Go to Settings and select "Force data and cache wipe functions to use F2FS" and if you want F2FS support on /System partition, select "Include system partition"
1.2) Now go to Wipe menu and select Format Data and type "yes" (Warning this will format Data partition and your Internal Storage, so please don't forget to make a backup of your personal data)
1.3) Optional, select Advanced Wipe menu and check System and Cache partitions to convert to F2FS respectively.

thanks again
