Restoring TWRP backup on new phone?

[RLLangley]

Had to pick up a new Note 2 today and glad to see they didn't update it before giving it to me. Well got home and rooted/unlocked it. Everything smooth. Rebooted into recovery to restore my TWRP backup and they don't show up in the "Restore" menu. I can see them when I go into "Install" but nothing when I go into "restore".

What do I need to do to be able to restore my backup? Flash Beans and then restore?

When you go into recovery and hit restore button at the top there are two circles one says internal the other external. try pressing the circle and switching between them.

I tried Nothing in either of them. Says "Updating Partition Details" when I open the log.

Using es explorer or root explorer can you tell me the patj you have to your backup

The file location that you had your backup. Its possible you left it on the internal memory of the first device

My backups are there just for some reason TWRP isn't seeing them. Might try doing a backup and see if that is seen.

That appears to have worked. Did a backup and it created a new folder. Moved my backups into that one and they are showing up. Doing a restore now.
