Guys, I have a question:

I've modded my vold.fstab to swap the way that android recognizes memories: it swaps internal for external memory by reaplacing a few lines (most from you guys already know it)

And my question is:

Why do I keep getting an error message saying: "The application is not installed"??????????

Sometimes, the app shows up, but, mostly, when I reboot, theres nothing in the application menu, just the shortcut, and when I try to open the application by it, shows up an error message saying that the application is not installed.

I have absolutelly no idea of what causes it. (Obviously, this only happens when the application is installed at external sd card (regonized by Android as the sdcard0 (Internal))).

Here's a screenshot so that you can understand me better:

i41.tinyp*******ic.com/w0nt5.png

Remove the ****** (Im prevented to post links since im a new user ¬¬)

(Its in portuguese, but, translating is: "The app is not installed")

Backup everything and do a COMPLETE Factory Reset from Settings.. Then Root it and install CoCore E Kernel! If you want more performance improvements try build.prop tweaks and scripts like 4CYL :)

Root is a must if you really want to get the most out of your phone.... Well please root it and see the Performance difference :D

And yes if you ever want to claim your warranty then do the following:

- Use Binary Counter Reset (app used to reset your binary counter)

- Backup everything and flash the stock firmware (you will need Odin and the firmware itself)

Flashing the firmware again will un-root it and replace CoCore kernel with the Stock one!!

I am a noob,sorry for asking such silly questions

Thanking you in anticipation
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
Yes, if you flash the Stock Firmware again (without formatting) then every custom modifications and custom kernel will be replaced with Samsung's stock files and it won't delete any of your files or apps installed... so yeah....

And to be honest I haven't tried any Custom ROM yet so I don't know which one is the best... and because none of the ROMs are the way I want them to be - so I'm making my own one and will publish it here by next month :cowboy:

So far the best performance I got was by using the firmware you're using (I9070DDULP8) with CoCore 5.0 or 6.0 Kernel! (This is the link for CoCore Kernel)

Here's a list of some ROMs you can try and see...

- Light JB

- Pure Vanilla

- Cyanilla (Beta)

There are a few more ROMs there, you can find them in here.... and please try my ROM once I publish it here :cowboy:

Thanks in anticipation
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
Binary counter is a simple counter Samsung put on many Galaxy devices (including our SGSA) so that they can tell whether you've flashed a custom recovery or kernel on your phone or not...

When you claim for warranty most service center employees will turn off your phone and boot to Download Mode (Volume Down + Power Button).. In download mode, there is a Counter, the Binary Counter.. if the counter is zero then they will accept your warranty.. if the counter is 1 or more then they will most probably void your warranty...

Now since you are noob (no offence) I don't think your counter is set at "one or more"... The binary counter app is an app which will reset your counter to zero :)
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] panda00:
Just a correction, binary counter will not increase unless you flash something, that is not Samsung Official, with

ODIN

Camera & Gallery Issue

i've just upgraded my phone to JB DXAMD1, and i've problem with camera and gallery.

Once i openned the camera, my phone hang but the camera is still working i must wait for >2 minutes to use it.

About the gallery sometimes cannot be open (not enough memory) and it's always create a big thumbnails cache (>300mb) in my usb storage.

Please help me to find the solution.. :confused:
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sami Kabir:
Did you try a Complete Factory Reset? That usually fixes all these problems.... If you didn't yet then backup everything and do it ASAP :)

OR you can try Stock Android Camera and Gallery app - its much better than Samsung's one :cowboy:

And my thumbnail cache is ~470 MB :p and I think the only way to reduce your thumbnails cache is by reducing the number of photos and videos on your phone OR else try 3rd party Gallery apps (from Google Play) on some you can even "disable" caching of thumbnails... and are obviously not buggy like Samsung's most apps :)

- Open Terminal Emulator and type this code below...

su
dd if=/sdcard/kernel.bin.md5 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15
(now wait for a few seconds and a message will be displayed saying "... has been transferred in 4.x seconds"
if you see that message above then just type-
reboot

What worked? Rooting or flashing CoCore E Kernel?

Well either way, I'm using the same firmware you are using along with CoCore E 5.0 with absolutely no other mods and my phone is already quite fast and lag free (to some extent)... Even many others have shared positive reviews about this firmware... Then there must be something wrong here....

- If you are using CoCore E kernel now then try changing governors using No-Frills CPU control (app)... Change governor to OnDemand and I/O to noop

- Debloat your system... That means remove any unwanted system apps like ChatOn or Voice Commands, etc using NoBloat Free (app).. Just be sure to not remove any important system apps as that will cause some problems.. Which will require you to flash the entire firmware again!

- Make sure Power saving mode is off!

internal storage / USB storage

Is it somehow possible to combine 'internal storage' and 'USB storage'? Many other devices like Nexus, S3, S4... don't have the USB storage and save everything on the internal storage, so there is more space for Apps :confused:

its more on software.. you can do that by means of repartitioning the internal storage..

thereby deleting the usb mass storage partition (UMS) and putting it in the data partitions (datafs)..

this can be done but may have unfavorable consequences the next time you flash roms through odin / cwm..

and can lead to undesirable results.. its a complicated step..

if you want, you can maximize storage by swapping internal storage with extsdcard.. there is a mod for that..
