After deleting 1.1GB in /data/log, it even boots again! Thank you for your help!

I’m a bit confused between /emmc, /sdcard and /sd-ext. Anyway, I used Aroma File Manager for copying /emmc to the external SD card (which was mounted at /sdcard). Now I have everything backed up.

It seems like only the data pins are not fully working. I was able to apply PhilZ-cwm6-XWMS3-FOP-5.15.9-signed.zip. I backuped /data and system, but I didn’t yet find out how to backup /sdcard (internal "USB storage") unfortunately.

Thank you for your detailed answer! I tried to apply the "update", but it fails with This package is for 'galaxys2,i9100,GT-I9100,GT-I9100M,GT-I9100P,GT-I9100T,SC-02C' devices; this is a ''. I could modify the updater script, but then I need to sign the update. Do you know how this is possible?
