[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrewZorn:
I'm new to Android, and cannot for the life of me figure out how to access some sort of option menu for individual widgets. Holding down the press just gives me the chance to delete it. For instance, I'm trying to change the colors/background of Digital Clock Widget, but cannot find any way to do this. The widgets do not show up in Apps so I cannot think of another way to get to options...

EDIT or another example, I tried TypoClock, but the bottom of it is cut off... I know I could resize it by paying for LauncherPro Plus, but come on, I don't want to REsize it, I just need it to be 'normal' size! I see everyone else's as correct, surely not EVERYONE has the paid version of the program just so they can resize the clock to its APPROPRIATE size????

EDIT think I may have resolved this, reset LauncherPro defaults. I wonder if it was my changing of the rows/columns? Probably...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muyoso:
You get to the widget menus by adding a widget to the home screen. When you add the widget, if it has any sort of menu, it will pop up prior to being added to the homescreen. Alternatively, some widgets may have some sort of menu system built into them, but I am sure they would have clearly recognizable buttons on the widget itself to access said menu.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndrewZorn:
I noticed the popup menu with some... I guess you have to re-add if you want to change something...

but at least now I know there isn't some generic hidden widget option menu. Thanks.

N1, rooted, 2.2, many apps to SD (both natively or using root).

Things have been humming along just fine. Today, after a reboot from a hanging app update, I no longer have access to apps that are loaded on SD. LauncherPro displays them using generic Android icons rather than the actual apps.

When I go to Manage Applications, they are listed but are all grayed out.

Several reboots, no joy.

Went to Settings/SD/. SD is shown as mounted. Tried to umount, the process hangs.

HELP!!

How do I troubleshoot/get my phone back to normal?

Is there a Linux "chkdsk" I can invoke?

I would really appreciate some help.

Cheers.

Edit: It appears that I can take pictures and browse pictures stored on SD, which suggests that the SD is mounted. What could be wrong?

Edit 2: From what I can tell, the link or reference to all the apps on SD is lost or corrupted. How do I rebuild/fix? HELP!!

Edit 3: Under Manage Applications, all the A2SD apps are grayed out. When I select one, the size information hangs at "Computing..." PLEASE HELP!!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Here is another clue: When I remove the MicroSD and boot the phone without it, there is no "SD missing" indicator on the notification bar. I thought there should be??

Without the MicroSD inserted:

The phone and the missing App2SD behave the same as if the SD were inserted except when I go to Manage Applications and select one of the App2SD apps, the file/cache/data size information show up right away (correctly). When SD is inserted, they hang at "computing size...".

Does this give someone a clue on what to do? Please?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danger-rat:
Sounds like they are corrupt...

Just reinstall from the market.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Thanks. It would seem like not the individual applications, but rather the table or links to all the App2SD is corrupt. Is there a way to fix this without needing to reinstall everything? I have over 200 apps!

Moreover, does the 1) lack of "missing SD" when it is not inserted, 2) strange behavior when trying to umount the SD and, 3) hanging at "computing size..." under Manage Applications suggest a deeper issue? (All described above.)

Here is a lesson for having a good backup.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highvista:
I've had this happen to me a few times now. I'm running stock, rooted 2.2.1 and am using the native app2sd functionality of FroYo. It occurs after a reboot. Shelling into the phone and doing a "df" to show mounts reveals that none of the normal application mounts are in place. Going to the /mnt/asec directory shows that each of the application directories exist but are empty. When things are working, each application's directory contains a "pkg.apk" file.

The only way I've been able to recover has been to use Titanium Backup to re-install each app from the back-up I'd made before this happened. I've become very paranoid and keep my back-up up-to-date at all times. Recovering this way is still pretty tedious, and I only have about 18 apps on my SD card. I'd think there'd be a better way to rebuild the /mnt/asec directory. I've created a tar of /mnt/asec and, if I have this problem again, I'm going to try just restoring the tar and rebooting to see if I can avoid the one-by-one reinstall.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Oh man I didn't want to hear that! Any idea what caused this? I saw it once before and things went back to normal after another reboot. This time, it didn't

Also, any idea why I am unable to umount the SD, no "missing SD" on notification bar when it is not inserted, and stuck on "Computing..." under Manage Applications when SD IS inserted?

Ugh!!

Edit: I'm Linux igorant. Is going to /mnt/asec simply as "cd /mnt/asec"? Also, what should I expect to see with a "df" and under /mnt/asec?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
This is what I see with "df"

/dev: 197552K total, 0K used, 197552K available (block size 4096)

/mnt/asec: 197552K total, 0K used, 197552K available (block size 4096)

/mnt/secure/asec: 7763968K total, 5470400K used, 2293568K available (block size 32768)

I then entered "cd mnt/asec", and "ls -a", but nothing at all was returned.

I cd'ed to /mnt/secure/asec and ls showed these (abbreviated):

android.tether-1.asec

bz.ktk.bubble-1.asec

<snip>

ymst.android.fxcamera-2.asec

ymst.android.homeswitcher-1.asec

They look like reference to the apps.

I have no idea what I'm looking at...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Trying to reinstall the apps, even on the phone rather than SD, does not work either. Is the only way to fix this to do a wipe/hard reset?

I'm really curious about what happened.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Forge94:
I get the same thing every time I reboot.

All I do is "Force Stop" LauncherPro then wait for it to start back up again and all my apps reload.

It may take more than one force stop, but 1 usually does the trick.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
I wish it were that easy. I've seen the problem you describe, where certain App2SD apps or gadgets don't show up on LauncherPro properly. A restart of LauncherPro fixes it. Under that condition, they still show up properly in the Market and Manage Applications. You can still launch the app by other means.

In this case, I believe the apps are actually gone...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] highvista:
What you're seeing in the /mnt/secure/asec directory sounds normal. This directory wasn't altered by the problem when I had it occur, as far as I could tell.

Your description of the /mnt/asec directory is different than what I saw. It seems yours is empty. Mine had a directory for each app on the SD card, though the directories were empty, rather than having the pkg.apk files in them that they do when things are working normally.

I've always been able to re-install my apps, so your occurrence of the problem may be a bit different than mine. Are you able to install a new app and move it to the SD card via the standard FroYo method, for an app that allows this?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Thanks for replying. I pulled the SD, did a wipe last night. The SD has a .android_secure directory. In it, there is a file for each app that is installed on the SD. Each file has the .asec extension.

After the wipe, I reinstalled the SD and experienced similar problem as before: Can't dismount SD, installing app from Market hangs, etc. Titanium restore hangs too. Strangely, browsing to that directory using Root Explorer shows the directory to be empty.

It was when I decided to rename the .android_secure directory when everything returned to normal. The OS recreated the directory, app installation worked, and I was able to run a Titanium restore. Unfortunately, the backup is old.

I wish there is a good explaination to what happened...

Edit: Something interesting...

I did a "df" now that things are working.

I still saw everything I did yesterday (sizes a bit different):

/dev: 197552K total, 0K used, 197552K available (block size 4096)

/mnt/asec: 197552K total, 0K used, 197552K available (block size 4096)

/system: 148480K total, 125516K used, 22964K available (block size 4096)

/data: 200960K total, 178824K used, 22136K available (block size 4096)

/cache: 97280K total, 1768K used, 95512K available (block size 4096)

/mnt/sdcard: 7763968K total, 5470400K used, 2293568K available (block size 32768)

/mnt/secure/asec: 7763968K total, 5470400K used, 2293568K available (block size 32768)

(note that the /mnt/asec still shows 0k used.)

BUT NOW I ALSO SEE:

/mnt/asec/net.cdeguet.smartkeyboardpro.en-1...

and one for each app.

Was it that these apps were just not properly mounting, therefore the OS cannot "see" them?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Yes. It's what the post above is telling you.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
What could have caused this? Was there a way to repair the issue without a wipe? Some way to get the apps to re-link or mount?

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nagasgura:
I had this problem a while ago and the only way I got it to go away was to do a factory reset via clockworkmod recovery. Just today, the problem came back. What I've noticed is that after a few hours, the apps come back. I have read that this problem could be caused by corrupted files on the sd card. The only way to fix it is to format the sd card (and posibly partition it). I am planing on waiting until they come back, backing them up, backing up my SD and partitioning my sd card (which wipes everything on it.)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zuberio:
So regularly performing a backup image of the SD card would help someone recover from this problem?

As well, are all the phones that are having this issue using aftermarket SD cards?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] houzuoguo:
few days ago I had corrupted App2SD function for 3 days.. during those 3 days I kept working to fix it and finally I had to format my SD card and reinstall all applications... it was kinda fraustrating.

But I notice that when I execute "move all apps from internal storage to SD card" on Titanium Backup, sometimes it gets stuck (when there are more than 140 apps) and all applications on SD card get corrupted.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
I can only suggest to all those still stuck with default Froyo Apps2SD method, make a (long due) switch and move to DarkTremor's Apps2SD. The hassle is completely worth it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deeveeance:
Hey there,

I recently started flashing multiple ROMs to see which one I liked best and whatnot, and I ended up staying with Fresh 3.4.0.1...

Thing is, I kinda liked the "Boing" notification sound for my texts from CyanogenMod 6.1...

Is there anyway to get them without restoring the nand backup and then copying the sound to the SD root (if I can even find/access it) and just using it on Flash after flashing the ROM again?

Any way at all? Does someone have the sound file?

thanks in advance!

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saturn2K:
For extra easiness, just copy the whole /media/ folder to your SD card's root directory. It will then automatically list the ringtones, alarms, and notification sounds in the list as if they were stock.

I like setting gmail's notification to the plastic pipe sound since it's quiet enough to not be annoying.

Hi everyone,

I've unplugged my HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) while it was synchronizing with windows 7 and stock on synch. with no actual progress, then I removed the battery but only the "smart mobility" and RGD displayed and then nothing happened "black screen".

Do any one knows what happened and to fix it back to normal?

Thanks,
[Touch HD General] gustavogibb:
Suficom,

I think that the register and/or the system files and/or the ROM's software of your phone were damaged somehow with a little or high intensity that I'm unable to especify now.

If you did'nt get it fixed yet, try to remove SIM and SD cards and then restart the BlackStone (it worked to me once...lol). If negative, try a Hard Reset on that. If it don't work too, I'd advise you to put a new ROM on your HTC; but be aware that doing this two last procedures, you will loose all out of the information of yours that isn't placed on the SD card.

Tell us your progress!

Good Luck!

Stay in peace!
[Touch HD General] accountabc:
If it was just synchronizing you can just do a hard reset (hold vol down + power). This will reset your phone to factory conditions.

If you were flashing a rom which failed, you should download a rom and flash it to your phone. You can download the stock rom from the HTC site.
