Father had the sane issue only he had a partition of his memory stick formatted to work with Apps2SD; a necessity on the HTC Desire.

It sounds like there is possibly something corrupted on your card, or you've messed around with the partitions. When your phone attempts to read something of the card that is corrupt, it will do it numerous tines until it'll skip the specific file it is trying to read. What you may or may not notice is that every time you have an SD Card issue, it's because your trying to do the same thing or access something that is corrupt.

As a result your phone panics and cries ;)

Format it and your troubles should be over, I recommend using your phone to Format it, that way it'll get rid of any problems and immediately install required android files.

Adios!
[HTC Sensation] davetherave79:
Ok guys ill giv a format ago thanks ill let u know wot the outcome is later

You can also try SD-Booster to speed up your SD Card and SD Tools to tjeck the speed befor and after.
[General Questions and Answers] mikeinhull:
I've just installed CyanogenMod 7 on my Samsung Galaxy s2 and it's pretty cool but I need to know where are the apk files stored from the market and apk files that i've copied over from kies. When I connect the phone to my lappy I can see the apk files that I've copied but cant find them on the phone to install. I install everything on the internal sdcard because I dont as yet have an external sdcard. I'll just give a quick example, I just copied over to the phone a android data on/off widget, it's there when I view the phone on my lappy but cant find it in the phone and yes you can all call me a noob but i'm all new to this great thing so please help cos i'm going mad here.

phone = samsung galaxy s2 GT-I9100

carrier = ORANGE, UK

rooted using CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_KK5-v5.0-CWM5.tar

before installing the cm7 i wiped the cache etc
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] minkmeister:
I have been getting a lot of force closes on my AT&T LTE tab over the last couple of weeks. Mainly gmail, Android browser and the google services framework.

Is anyone else seeing this same issue?

I rooted the tab back in December, but haven't had any issues outside this recent spat of fcs.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I havent seen this.

Did you install CWM? if so you can try fixing permissions.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] JayWheelz:
I get the same issue. orlando where do you change the permissions at in the file system?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
You can fix permissions with CWM recovery.

Are you guys using the regular root kernel, or the OC kernel?

This stumps me, because I cant figure out why it would work fine for a month and then start to have FCs.

If you have CWM try clearing your cache and dalvik.

Since the tablet is so similar to the skyrocket, I would suggest reading this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1386234

*dont do what the OP says though, just read it for info*

This also may be of help, but it would have to be modified. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1487706

I don't have a clear answer at this time.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] minkmeister:
I am running the normal root kernel, and no cwm installed.

I will read those threads, try the cwm permissions fix, and report back.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] JayWheelz:
My force closes only happened after installing the OC with the LIB's pushed. I did the permissions fix and cleared the cache and dalvik. I'll let you know how it goes.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Zhousibo:
Hmmm. Started getting FC on YouTube now. Also am on stock. Not sure what happened but has been like this since yesterday. Not getting any other FC's though.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
this is weird indeed.

The YouTube issue is widespread across tabs.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] JayWheelz:
Yup I'm experiencing the same issues with Youtube. I didn't pay attention to Youtube because I don't watch videos via Youtube on my tab that often.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Zhousibo:
Looks like YouTube issue was fixed last night for tablets. This might not resolve OP but thought might be linked hence brought it up.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I have been talking to thederekjay, and he has written a tool for a more complete wipe than CWM can provide.

read here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1487706

I checked out the script and the partitions are the same.

I am thinking that maybe running this after flashing clockworkmod and the custom kernel would aleviate FC's if multiple people are having them.

I dont know though, and the tool needs to be tested. I will let you know what he says.

EDIT: He said this should work. I sent him the output from my adb shell mount with partition layout.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I used the script. it ran fine.

really scary when i flashed the stock rom through odin and it froze at the ATT logo. wouldnt boot past.

i booted into 3e recovery and wiped data factory reset and it worked fine after that. feels slightly faster but that just might be a placebo effect.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
yea its fixed.

my only suggestion to the other people seeing force closes is to maybe flash stock, and root without using a custom kernel....

OP, are you still seeing FCs?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
OP...has your problem been resolved?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] JayWheelz:
Since fixing the permissions I have had any force closes

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
I am getting a massive amount of force closes on my i957. Stock kernel with cwm and root only. Fixing permissions in cwm does nothing and neither does rom manager. Incredibly annoying.

I have installed

ezPDF, Foxit PDF, Quick office along with Polaris office (It is a stock app in GT-P7500). When I tap .pdf file a popup menu opens up saying ''complete action using'' the above apps

If I tap a .chm book a popup menu opens up saying ''complete action using'' Cool reader or Script Manager, it does not show HyReader or CHM Reader or Moon Reader or Best Ebook Reader

Is there a way to change it

Please don't ask me to ''Get a Windows 7 tablet?''
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
Get a Window--- Just kidding :p

Normally it matters that the app that supports the file type allows it to be enabled as a default app for that certain file extension. I use the normal Adobe Reader for pdf and I don't really mind what app it opens, Android is still growing, you can however contact the developer of the app you find most comfortable and let them know about enabling it as a default app for that specific filetype. They do appreciate feedback and also you would experience the same with Mango based tablet's.

You can however clear default's in Application Manager.

[Atrix 4G General] mickeycohen:
Hi,

My AT&T Atrix is running on 4.5.91 and is rooted

I would like to start using ROMs but would like to have the option to go back to what I have right now (ROM and Apps)

I just want to make sure I understand what I'm doing and keep it as simple as possible.

Unlock the BootLoader: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=22148143#post22148143

Then download and install ROM Manager, install CWM Recovery and then I can backup the current ROM

Then, I can install any Atrix ROM from the ROM Manager.

Is all this correct?

If yes, YIPPI!

If not, let me know where I'm wrong and try to keep it as simple as possible for me as I am quite a noob when it comes to ROMing and scared to death to brick my phone

BTW - I have titanium pro

Thanks!
[Atrix 4G General] gambe89:
1. unlock bootloader

2. install romracer's Custom CWM-based Recovery 5.0.2.7-atrix5 link

3. nandroid backup including webtop/osh partition

4. install any downloadable rom from the Atrix 4G Android Development forum
[Atrix 4G General] mickeycohen:
ok, you lost me

1) is the BL unlocking link correct? This is what I should use?

2) I see this requires some command line stuff, not sure how to do this. Is there an easier way? Any reason why I shouldn't use the recovery from ROM Manager?

3) What's nandroid

4) ok
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Answers above!
[Atrix 4G General] mickeycohen:
Hi

Much clearer now, thanks

But, a few more questions:)

Will unlocking the bootloader wipe any data?

The reason I liked ROM Manager is because it has a GUI for everything you need to do. And I still don't understand how to flash recovery from this guide

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1204500

Is this using ADB? I have no idea how to do this

Nandroid is a full backup of everything? System, apps etc?

Is the recovery wiped after installing a ROM or is the recovery like the bootloader and completely separate from the OS and Kernel?

Again, thanks for helping and sorry for my noobiness
[Atrix 4G General] CaelanT:
Answers above! :-)
[Atrix 4G General] mickeycohen:
Ok, cool. Still a few more questions:

Megaupload was shut down. Where can I find the BL unlocker?

Fastboot mode = usb debugging mode?

I understand what you're saying about this recovery, but - I like the fact that everything can be done through a GUI with a click of a button. So I can install the CWM recovery through ROM manager once the BL is unlocked?
[Atrix 4G General] mickeycohen:
Hi guys,

Please can someone respond?

Thanks
[Atrix 4G General] mickeycohen:
You can download the script here:

http://j.mp/Ate8E5

Fastboot <> USB debugging

Fastboot = power up while holding down the volume down button until you see "fastboot" on the boot screen. Then press the volume up button to go into Fastboot mode

About recovery, if you're insecure (which is ok and understandable) just do everything through ROM Manager, it's easy

Anyway, most new ROMs have AROMA so you'll be fine

[Motorola Droid RAZR] bikercr:
Am I correct in presuming that one connects RAZR to computer via USB and sets on charge only, then runs .bat file?

I'm on the .173 official ROM. Does Step 1 bring me back to .748 without needing to do factory reset first--or should I do a full wipe before starting?

After rooting, can I go back to .173 without a complete wipe? Can I presume that going back to .173 preserves root? If I don't delete anything key, will phone still be on official upgrade path or will upgrade to next official ROM require reverting all the way back to unrooted?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] rockhumper:
hey guys, nice tool matt! (bet you get that a lot!)....quick question. I rooted my brothers phone and dumped all his razr bloatware, got him on setCPU, bootstrapped him, and then backed him up. He is not adept at this stuff at all...in fact all he wanted was all the bloatware gone...

So my question for yall...he recently just got a request for the OTA update that I guess just went out...of course his dumbass hit update without consulting me, but thank goodness it didnt allow the update....

So to make a long story longer....can I use this tool to add voodoo rootkeeper to his phone...and then when I do that will he be able to update to the latest update? He is on stock firmware, rooted, but debloated...I heard that because he is debloated it might never take the OTA...what do you guys think? Can I use this tool to get around that? Any suggestions? I dont want to throw the thread on too much of a tangent so if I am off topic can someone please PM me instead? Thanks Razr owners!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mattlgroff:
The thing with the OTA patcher is it mainly checks 2 things:

Pre-loaded Bloat in the /preinstall/ folder

Default .apk and .odex files are intact

If you have those things you can take the OTA. OTA rootkeeper will let you keep root if you temp. unroot before any OTA update and restore it after, but it won't help you if you cannot update first.

My suggestion: Use my utility to go down to 6.11.748 stock unrooted. Update to 6.12.173 normally. Root with my utility and install bootstrap. Make a backup. When times comes for the next OTA use boostrap to restore any bloat you may have removed. OTA rootkeeper will also be useful.

Have a nice day!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rockhumper:
Hey Matt,

Thanks for the advice! One follow up. I actually backed up all the bloat before removing (just in case of unforeseen problems - like this!). So if I restore all the backed-up bloatware through TBu do you think I can skip the going down to 6.11.748? I already rooted and bootstrapped his phone, so would I be able to restore those bloatware files, use your utility to set up the ota rootkeeper, temp unroot, update, then restore the root - then of course remove all the bloat again ;-) What do you think?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mattlgroff:
You can try anything you like :)

I just always recommend a complete fastboot whenever possible because it usually catches every single software issue you may have with updating. If your bloat and /preinstall/ are intact the update should work.

Good luck!
