[Q] Paranoidandroid problems - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I've switched to Paranoidandroid from CheckROM, which means that I've done rerooting and installing of ICS via ODIN. Afterwards, I've installed Paranoidandroid ROM v0.6 and HYBRID Gapps and done the rest of the instructions.
I don't know if I've done something wrong in the process (or I'm just a noob), but after few minutes of working and figuring things out, the screen just goes off and animations comes up (I think it's looping) that is similar to boot animation (but it's not bootloop since I was already at the homescreen).
So is there any way to disable/fix that?
I also have problems with connecting to WiFi (gets stuck at Obtaining IP Address) and my wallpaper also went missing and I couldn't set a new one.
Oh yea, I also couldn't find External SD files in Gallery? I seen it's in some folder emmt or something like that, but why it isn't placed in it's default /mnt/sdcard/ext_sdcard/?
Thank you!
P.S.
Oh yeah, sorry for an inappropriate use of grammar, hope you will understand what I meant to say
EDIT:
I also cannot reboot or power off my mobile phone, only if I take out the battery -.-

Full wipe and re flash fails then re download the firmware and re falsh .
jje

I've already tried wipe data/factory reset and reinstall Parandroid ROM + HYBRID Gapps. Or you meant that I should flash ICS Stock again and then flash Parandroid?
EDIT:
I'm flashing Firmware atm (Nordic Countries one). So I should add CF Root afterwards and then reflash Parandroid and it's stuff?
Tried it, I still get that animation loop after few minutes of usage =/!
(Had to post here since I can't post it at Development)

Did you try redownloading the rom, if not then redownload paranoid rom and then reflash it.

Re download, do the corresponding wipes, re flash, fix permissions just in case.,.
Should work

Thank you on your responses, I will try it asap and provide further info about it.
EDIT:
Redownload and reflash didn't work out =/!

this called hot reboot, I guess you need to format your internal sd card, use odin to flash the stock firmware, then flash the rom you like. And by the way, your external sd card is located in emmc, you can use an app called directory bind to bind emmc as external sd card, search the forum , you can find the instruction to use the app.

Thank you, but all I had to do is to change some WiFi settings on mobile phone since I have 13 channel router. Thanks for the app, will come in handy!

hello.
It's a known issue . Response from the original thread:
set phone and contact apps to 240 (custom DPI) or more simply to "Phone DPI".
It solves the problem.
cheers.

CyanogenMod 6.1.3 V4.5.7, SD CARD PROBLEM CAUSED!!!!

everything was working fine, until i flash this mod, started instaling the (alot) apps i wanted to, and all of the sudden, the apps never finished installing, and there is no way of installing apps for me now, not even sd card/ market, only the "zip", i can install apps on 2.1/2.3 (arc rom). but not on ANY 2.2 rom. i dont know why.
if anyone know how to fix this please help, whether i restore or put in any new 2.2 rom installing apps doesnt work, i cant connect the sd card to computer and browse thru it, for connecting i HAVE to use multi mount . plz help. thanks!
Hey you might want to reflash the rom again. That should fix it but if you still have this problem go to developer tools ( its an app) and press crash system server
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
I GOT this problem once before so
take out the sd card and try installing from the market
if it works
remove the ".android_secure" folder from the sd card
its the parts of apps moved t sd and it may be the problem
(you shoul remove them anyway cauze its useless)

Need help, unable to download/update apps

This happened after I flashed VillainROM 3.0. Now I'm unable to download or update any apps via Market, it would give "Error downloading app_name. Please try again at a later time." . Sometimes I can install them from the web, but NEVER through the phone. There are also discrepencies, e.g I have Astro uninstalled, the market app says I don't have it installed (but I can't download), but on the web it says I have it installed and I can't install it again.
I have tried clearing caches of everything relevant and irrelevant, flashing different roms, even restoring CWM backup and titanium backup, nothing seems to help. I have deleted .android_secure folders, but I can't find any smdl2tmp1.asec files anywhere. Some of my apps just show up as grey icons, but some I'm able to see them and use them. Clicking on the grey icons would just crash TouchWiz. I look into Applications under settings and I see lots of "com.app_name.something_else" I tried deleting those but it doesn't seem to help.
I'm at my wits end and am really considering getting a new SGS2 if this doesn't get fixed I would really appreciate any help

An Important Question About cMIUI !

Hello guys, i have a question/problem about cMIUI for SGS2, i wanted to open this thread since i noticed i cant post comment if i dont have min 10 posts.
So, I just installed cMIUI to my S2 and i noticed that my phone can't read External SDCard Files after I unplug my cable, after unplugging i have to reboot my phone to make it read SDCard again. But sometimes it doesn't happen.
I tried turning off "USB Storage" in notification bar before unplugging, that didn't help.
2.Question : Sometimes (when i reboot my phone) it says "Preparing SD Card , Checking for errors" in notification bar, and it stucks there (and i can reach my SDcard) , Why ?.
Thanks in advance :good:
I'm not native English speaker, so please apologize if i wrote something wrong.​
Come on, please, Up Up. :crying:
Try to download rescan media root from the play store and run it. It might pick up your SD card. You can also try to reflash the rom without wipe (just the cache, dalvic and fix permissions). See if that will help
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I think "rescan media" thing will not work, Because when i plug phone again after unplugging , it shows only internal sd, i will try permissions and others. Thanks for your reply , still waiting solutions or suggestions. BTW , RootBox is good ?
Edit : I tried again now to see if it will see ExtSD or not, it saw ExtSD when its on Debugging and not Debugging. So I didn't try clearing caches and permissions. But please dont close this thread , maybe it will do the same thing again and i wanna see if there are any guys that saw this problem.
Edit 2-Q : Is there a chance to see this problem because of kernel ? It was Siyah v3.5.2 (I think) and I upgraded to v4.0.1.
yep same issues with me. i just restart the phone. if it still does not work, i turn it off and reseat the sdcard. hth.
maybe there is a solution to this problem in cmiui section but I am just lazy to search now. =)
I think its about kernel, after 4.0.1 Siyah , Im still fine with USB Connection, you can try it dude.
Unfortunetaly its not about Kernel, I just recorded a video and I cut/pasted it to my PC, then i unplug the cable and the same thing happen. =( Any solutions ?.:crying:
Have you tried a complete reinstall? Or latest cMIUI ROM?
Wipe data, cache and delvik and reflash 2.8.10; use fluxi kernel, don't update kernel.

[Q] Problems after Jelly Bean!!

Hi everyone this is my first post here so be kind.
I updates to Jelly Bean a while ago and am experiencing some niggles, not sure if they are all JB related or not so I thought I'd ask the experts.
1. No Flash - I understand Flash isn't supported after 4.0.4. If this is the case I may just reflash back to it or is there another way? I have already installed flash from third party but it still doesn't work.
2. Before JB I could put any video file type and it would work without converting etc But not anymore on some work, is this because of JB?
3. I tried to install the Dark Knight game the other day from the official game site (they had an offer, game was 99p). I couldnt even install the .apk It said there wasn't enough room to download the file (just the .apk), even though I had 8gig free on SD and 30gig on external SD. Whats the problem there?
4, Yesterday Handcent messneger wouldn't update, it said there wasn't enough room but there is over 8gig free o the SD, I dont understand, why??
5. is there a way to install the game data files to external SD, the 1gig - 2gig files?
My phone is rooted and I have the official JB installed too, Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
PS. I used to love my SGS3 but its pissing me off now. Ive just manually added up all the MB's my apps are taking up. I totted it up to 389MB, even though task manager says 869MB/11.35GB. And now I cant install anything from google play, I just get the message 'insufficient space'. How can this be?? (I have checked there is nothing in any of the other files on the internal SD)
Full wipe id say

[Q] Can i unroot my phone but still have a custom rom installed?

Had my phone for a few months now and at the moment its rooted and ive installed a few roms on it. At the moment ive using Omega Rom which i do like apart from a few issues. Camera always asks me to install SD card.... even though its in. Anyway, not bothered with that for now.
Got 2 options at the moment.
1 - Unroot and install stock Samsung Firmware. I want to do this as there are 2 apps that dont work with a rooted phone which id like to use. Samsung Video App and NowTV. Id like the samsung app to work as when i 1st purchased my phone i had free credit to spend on it and i purchased a few films on there which ive never got round to watching. As for NowTV and possibly SkyGo, i need my phone rooted for these to work,
2 - Stick with a rooted phone and custom firmware. Im keeping an eye out for the new JellyBam v6 which hopefully is released this weekend.
Ideally id like to have the Jellybam rom installed with my phone unrooted. Would this be possible??
SuperUser app -> remove root
jellybam v6.7.0 Samsung GT-I9300
hi guys, it's my first post so i hope i'm in the right place.. just flashed jellybam v6.7.0 onto my phone and it's amazing, so smooth and quick compared to stock android jellybean.. however, i've got a constant message in my notification bar that says "blank SD card" and it won't let me mount SD, it keeps forcing me to format but i don't want to lose all my data. i've tried the card in my computer and it's definitely not corrupted, and all the data is still there. has anyone got any ideas what the problem is or how i can fix it?
many thanks in advance,
cheers

you're not in the right place, this is someone else's post. you should have posted in the Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting under a new thread. if your sd card works in you PC, transfer all your stuff over and format it, then try it!
