Custome Rom question. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

I rooted and used Team Win recovery Project to put CM 10.1 on my Note II. However I did not have my sd card when I was installing so I put it on my internal storage. Is there anyway to just move it over to the sd card?

Use a file manager like ES file explorer, astro, or root explorer.

Or even the twrp file manager under advanced.

[Q] Where are Nandroid backups stored?

Hi, I was wondering where Nandroid backups are stored.
If it matters, CM7 @ SGSII. Thanks.
Sdcard/clockworkmod/backups
Sent from my M9300 using xda premium
use a file manager like "es file explorer" and look at sdcard->clockworkmod->backups
Thanks both, but when I look in that folder there's only one backup listed, not even the most recent one. When I go into CWM recovery, there are at least 5.
Any idea as to where I might find these other backup files?
*** EDIT *** disregard that I'm an idiot. Was looking at the external SD card while I should have been looking at the internal SD card.
So by looking in the internal, you found them correct?

When using my computer to locate them the locations are:
SD Card

Internal

I hope this helps.
I ffound them exactly where you indicated. Why do they all have the date of 01-01-1980? How do I know which is the most curent?

yea, niether is mine, I was wondering if it had anything to do with the size, its a 32g? I had been planing on posting a question here soon to ask about it? I always have to use my phone as the only choice when looking in CWM?
I am having the same problem. My ext sd is not showing in cwm. My version is 5.5.0.4. The same thing when doing backups. Only internal.

Same thing here. Ext sd was working then I flashed the newest version through rom manager and now my external doesn't show up. The card it fine and worked prior. It also works in android

I saw this too. I had an external in and had to place it in both DCIM folders and it appeared in one or the other

I flashed 5.8.4.5 via ROM manager and everything is right as rain. Both internal and external show up now.

What I do is create a file on the s/d card. I name it +Flash. Then whenever I download anything to flash .. It goes into that file.
When you go into recovery and look at your files .. the + makes it be the first file. Makes it easy to find.
Hope this helps.

Thanks but the issue is that the zip file isn't showing I know where the file is stored but for some reason it's not showing for me to zip? I see the file when I look for it but when I go into recovery the zip file can't be found anywhere?

What file path do you have it saved to? Internal or External?

You most likely have placed it on the external sd card. Check. If so, move it to internal.

Is this a new thing? I used to always put zips on my external and flash from there. Now mine is similar to the OP. Some roms I put on my external and CWM sees them no problem. Other times the folder is empty. If I go in and move the file back to the internal it shows right up. It was nice being able to dump the roms on the external which has more space than internal.

I have always used the internal. I use TWRP recovery. You can select internal or external sd card to view when flashing.
Before when using cwm, I never had to worry. Placed everything on internal and it was just there when I was ready to flash. You could always use a file app to move older roms
To your external to save space. Take a look at TWRP. Its very quick for Nandroid backups.

I second using TWRP; best Recovery program, imo. I had a few problems with CWM (even Touch version) back when I started flashing ROMs, but no problems with TWRP.
There's also an issue with the External SD listing coming up under the root emmc folder, rather than under Internal; can always check there for missing files stored on your External SD.

Root Explorer ext sd card support?

Was wondering if there is a way to enable Root Explorer to support ext SD card on stock based ROMs. I flashed an AOSP based rom in the past and I was able to view files on both int and ext SD cards, coming back to ICS stock based ROM there's only int SD card support.
? Go to storage/extSdCard/ ?

i don't see a storage folder in Root Explorer.
what i meant is that I would like to use Root Explorer with my ext SD card, being able to edit files. that way i can get rid of the "My Files" app

Downloads.. CWM /= file explorer.. Help

Here's my issue.
It seems my downloads are being saved to the only internal memory. Nothing is being saved to the sd card. Using root explorer I see a recently downloaded ROM zip ( in the download file).. and that zip only. I go into cwm recovery to the same download file and it's not there. Two previously downloaded files are there (different ROM and gapps) but not the most recently downloaded ROM.

CWM has install zip from internal or external. I use root explorer to move downloads from storage/sdcard0/downloads to root of sdcard1 which is external.

I'll try that and see if the file is then visible..
Edit:
Moved the file using root explorer from internal SD to external SD and it was then visible in cwm external..
Strange..
