Hi sorry for all the questions recently im just realy into all this modding and makeing my phone faster.
And coming to this site is one of the best things i have used since getting the internet on in my house because everyones friendly and very helpfull thank you all who have helped me
sorry back to my question
do you know how it says not to take the memory card out of phone after installing app2sd.
does this mean i cant connect phone to the computer and install music on.
or can i connect to the pc without problems and install music and app2sd still works
when it says not to take memory card out does this just basicaly mean do not remove card from phone itsself
Hi it does work i tried it anyway because no one wrote back
your data from apps is on your sd card they mean
that if you take it out your apps wont work
or your device will turn off
You can transfer data from your computer to your phone just like before.
One of the reasons why we even need to create a separate partition for app2sd is to allow the regular FAT32 partition to be mounted on your computer and still allow the apps on the SD to work.

Hello.
I bought my lg optimus l9 about a month ago and due to only 2.3gb of internal memory I can not move apps and games from phone memory to micro SD. Because of that my usage on this phone is limited.
I have tried to root it and have followed many online guides and videos but I just cant get it done.
My phone is kernel 3.0.21 and software version is P76010h-EUR-XX.
I would be so thankful to anyone who could lead me to the right direction and could help me get this phone rooted and apps moved to micro SD.
I know I can move them manually when the phone is connected with USB to PC, but isnt there a way I could move them in my phone, like my previous x10 mini had the Move to SD Card chance enabled, but in my new phone there is no such button or whatever.
I have also tried apps such as Link2SD but it doesent work, I believe that the device needs to be rooted and I cant get it done.
I have installed PC suite to my PC and followed root guides, I run the Bat file, do everything correctly, the phone restarts but there is no super user and also Root Checker app shows that my device is not rooted.
I feel so dissapointed in this phone beacause I can only keep limited apps and games on the phone due to low memory capacity.
If I could get this phone rooted and then mayby the Link2SD will help me get my apps and games moved to SD card, I would be so happy.
So please, if there is anyone who could help me, I would really need it beacause I am helpless at the moment and dont know what to do anymore.
Hi,
another forum recommended I register and ask my question here. I am not a techie. I don't know what I'm doing. This is probably a basic question, but with all the googling I've done, I can't find the answer!
Here goes, and please be easy on me:laugh:
My GS3 was running really slow, running down the battery, just in general not running as well as I remembered from a year before buying it. I decided to back it up, reset it and start from scratch. The phone has run AWESOME! One problem though; when it updated, it installed 4.3. Ever since, I can't do anything with my SD card. I get an error that the SD card is full, and if I look in the settings, it shows zero space on the SD card. If I plug it into my mac, it shows like 12gb of space.
I used to use Android File Transfer and that doesn't work anymore. I recently tried Airdroid, which works great for the internal storage, but tells me that my SD card is full.
Help!
PS I tried to post a link to a screenshot of what storage on my phone looks like, but since I'm a noob, I'm not allowed
When you upgrade to android 4.3 it will change your storage partition from sdcard0 to emulated/0 ... simply it will change its partition so all your old files will not be visible there but they are still in your memory... I suggest you find your old files and move them to new directory... There are many threads on how to find your old files.. Search

Please please help me, I know it sounds pathetic but im nearly in tears due to how massive an impact this is having on my life!! :'(
Im willing to genuinely pay £10 via paypal to anyone who can help me fix my phone, I promise.
My phone is an LG Gt540.
I bought it 2months ago new on stock rom.
I managed to workout how to root it, and then upgraded its rom a few times over the next few days.
I eventually reached CM 4.2.1 rom, which is the highest available and worked well.
The phone has only 133mb internal space though, and so I needed something to increase the storage (using my SD card's space).
And so after many days of trying stuff I managed to find Mounts2sd.
I partitioned my SD card correctly (using mini partition wizard), and mounts2sd was working fine.
However 1 app didn't work, and so like an idiot I decided to re-flash the entire rom, wipe the sd-card, and try to restart from fresh.
However I endedup formatting; the SDcard, The SD ext, the System, and formatting everything in the menu in recovery.
The phoned bricked and wouldn't turn on.
But I managed to put my SD card in my laptop, have my laptop detect it as a 'device', and so was able to place the ROM file onto the SD card that way.
I then re-booted into recovery, and re-installed the rom.
I thought id fixed the phone, but clearly I hadn't.
And for the last 2weeks since, everytime I try to re-install mounts2sd, it just totally screws up and freezes up the phone.
I partition the SD card correctly each time, however when checking it in recovery it says SD-ext wasn't ever mounting (error mounting SD-ext) was the exact message.
I then tried to re-install a lower level rom (2.3.4 I think it is) onto the phone,
to then re-install CM 4.2.1 afterwards hoping that that would fix it all,
however the phone now wont detect the SD card at all!! :'(
The only way I could access the SD card normally is put it in the phone, plug in usb cable, it wont ever detect the SD card as a folder on my laptop like C: or D:, but if I use Mobile2go software from wondershare I was able to connect to the phone and access the SD card from there, and transfer files onto it that way.
However I now cannot do that, since when I try the phone will turn on but has error msg flashup every second saying something like keyboard has stopped working, and so it wont load the Mobile2go software, and so I cant connect to the SD card to put the 4.2.1 rom onto it.
I have tried placing the SD card into the laptop through the side-slot thing, and can access it via mini-partition wizard when I do that.
However the SD card is not being detected at all when I click on My Computer, and so I cannot place any files onto it! :'(
I seriously am so close to crying now, this has already had me in tears, as its so upsetting!
Please please can someone help me.
To summarise the things I need to be able to do (in order I guess) are-
1. Find a way of getting my phone to recognise and mount the SD card.
2. Find a way of getting my phone/laptop to detect the SD card and allow files (CM 4.2.1 rom) to be placed onto it so I can install that back onto my phone.
3. Find a way of being able to get the SD-ext to be recognised and detected as being mounted by the phone so that I can use Mounts2sd.
If anyone can help me do all those 3 things I will be so truly grateful and will happily pay £10 to you via paypal as a sign of my gratitude.
As this is just distressing and upsetting me so much.
Thankyou
Jessica

Hello and thankyou for your reply.
How exactly do I use 'kdz' to flash back to the 1.6 stock rom though please?
As I don't know any of these technical terms at all.
Anyone have their efs folder contents completely disappear?
This happened to me with my Sprint galaxy S 5 and I get a pop up saying the device is in " Factory Mode " and I need to switch it to user for it to work properly. The phone will boot with a stock recovery only but is useless due to the Factory Mode, it disables WiFi and causes numerous other issues .
Would greatly appreciate any input on this. It is all over the internet but nothing but no legitimate fixes after 30+ hours of research
Look at LG Swift GT 540 forum on xda, there are all tutorials, Now I cant post link for it bu google it "LG gt540 xda"

I tried using KDZ updater to re-flash the stock rom, however all it did is totally break my phone completely so now its totally unusable!!!!!! :'(
I followed every step of the method as written here-
http://forums.androidcentral.com/op...guide-unbrick-upgrade-optimus-v-easy-kdz.html
However it just mucked my phone up and went to a black screen saying loads text, starting with-
Arm11 is crashed!!
Linux kernel panic
Please can someone help me as im so close to just smashing this stupid piece of crap on the floor, and am so upset that the KDZ has broken my phone!!!!
Hello, I was wondering if anyone can help me out.
I'll start up by saying I know nothing about phones or programming so I'd appreciate your inputs if you have the patience to teach a laic
I bought Xiaomi Redmi3 and I'm so far very happy with the phone.
The only thing is I'd like to move some apps to my SD card since the phone only has 16GB.
I read somewhere that since the phone has multilanguage ROM it already has root. It comes with an app called "SuperSU".
Does this mean I can move stuff to the SD card somehow and not break the warranty of the phone?
Is there any way to move stuff to the external storage without rooting the phone?
Thank you so much!
same problem here

Hi, i recentely have tried to solve this problem. As far as i know miui doesn't support any kind of app on the SD.
However, with a rooted phone, i tried to use App2sd.
To use it i had to partition my 32 gb sd, with a first Fat32 partition (almost 20 gb), a Ext3 partition (almost 10gb), and a swap area (almost 2 gb).
App2sd used the second partition, the Ext3 one, to move apps in there.
Everything worked flawlessly, but when i rebooted the phone the MIUI didn't load the second partition (so App2sd said) and so i lost every app i moved in there, without being able to reinstall them (i recieved an error from the playstore).
Surely there may be a solution to the problem through the use of the app, however i'm not good enough to find it, and so i reflashed the miui and rolled back to the previous situation.
Sorry if this is the wrong section.
Yesterday i moved my SD Card Akyta 16GB from my old 4.4.2 tablet to a 6.0 phone.
The phone requested the SD Card to be formatted, so i did it because i had no choice, now i found out that all of my photos, videos and music were on the SD Card instead of the old tablet, so i lost everything :/
I know that there's a plenty of Recovery Software, but the majority requires a Card Reader, and I don't have one.
Do you guys know any Software for recovering media which support "Portable Device" mode and don't require a Card Reader? I tried with Remo Recover but after one try the program itself won't launch, i reinstalled it many times (I have Windows 7 x86 Ultimate)
I am waiting for your suggestions, i repeat, programs that don't need Card Readers. I tried every Playstore recovery software and they only show photos that are on the phone right now (undeleted photos, unharmed).
PS: My phone is rooted with SuperSU 2.79.
Salam Alaykum.
Best option is
Buy or borrow a card reader and restore on PC.
Be careful apps / software do not write on sd card because they will make recovery files that you formatted more difficult / impossible.
I can read and I know this is not the answer you r waiting for but believe me it is your best option.
On pc use Recuva from Piriform. Or Get data Back Simple Data Recovery from Runtime Software LLC.
If you do use any app on phone or tablet please try pc method with card reader after all also if the app on phone or tablet did not recover all files.
In that way you have more chance all files recovered.
I still think pc method is the best option but I'd if you will try any app if it exist on android.
I would be very careful before letting app recover files instead of a pc program!!
Goodluck and let u know if u got ur data back and how you got it back. ! :good:
