i figured it out ,,,,,,running kravens cm7.2
using xionias recovery...
works like a freaking champ !!!!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORTS
KUDOS TO YOU
Skipping sd-ext is normal. That means you do not have software telling phone to use sd card as internal storage like I am. Again that is normal for you and everyone not running a data2ext mod.ok,,,,i just tried for the 6th time and i finally rebooted into recovery and its backing up now....
dont know why it took so many tries....
it did say however that there was no sd-ext found,,,skipping backup of sd-ext.
then says generating md5 sum...
backup complete..
now what ???? lol
