that should work, if not plz give output here so that I and others may help you

also i have one suggestion for you, i started the thread for my problem and i found a better way to keep all in file.(including settings .debs and others) i use backupmenu now a days and keep whole backup of my device it is perfect option for me.trust me it worth a try. install it from application manager.

Good luck!
