i use Samsung galaxy s2 with the latest firmware version from Samsung kies (ginger bread 2.3.5) , the problem occurred after installing external SD card and move bunch of apps to it,i tried removing the external sd card from my device, the device stoped rebooting, when i insert it again the device keeps rebooting over and over, the problem is obviosley is moving apps to SD card, i tried to delete the content of the file (andro secure) in SD crad this file includes the moved applications from phone memory to external sd, the problem also stoped
i wasn't having this issue in 2.3.3 therefore
its one of the three:
1- android 2.3.5 do not accept lots of apps in external sd
or 2- there is a problem in a specific app in external sd which make the phone rebooting over and over but i don't know which app is causing the issue because i have lots of apps installed !
or- a problem in the newest firmware 2.3.5 as i heard many ppl having troubles with it
to fix the problem i did factory reset and the rebooting stopped but im scared now to move apps to sd card that the rebooting problem occur again as it happend to me twice after doning factory reset and move them.
i need your help guys, it's annoying to not be able to move apps to sd so the problem don't occur

I will be honestly: I didn't read all BUT
1) U have rebootings after putting files on external sd.
2) after factory reset problem was passed
3) copying again - reboot again
-> right?
1) U thought about wrong (damaged) files you copy?
2) Or maybe files which normally used from an app and this app now isn't able to use it because u moved?
Thing about and check this, I'm sure one of it would be the fold.

it's not copying actully, it's downloading the apps from market and move them from internal storage to external sd therefore i don't think it's a damage files case because they are a market apps however i move only compatible apps which doesn't have (lower right icon) in app2sd, install latest version of app2sd to know what (lower right icon) mean
I'm having the exact same problem! It just randomly started last night, I was playing the game "Blood and Glory" exited the game and around 2 minutes later after checking Facebook it started doing the boot loop.
I'm running the Sprint Epic Touch 4g with Android 2.3.6
I recently put in a 32g SD card a little over a week ago cause it seems the 16g internal is partitioned to only around 2gigs for apps and I have around 130 apps.
I use App2SD pro to move all my apps.
I'm having the same problem, I bought SanDisk SD Card 16GB. when I install it and moved all supported Apps to the SD Card the problem occurred and my SGS2 keeps rebooting over & over during the whole day.
One of my friends made a factory restore & installed the previous OS 2.3.4 and the problem disappeared!!
The thing is what if don't want to root my device and install 2.3.4 what we should do.... shall we keep the SD card only for Camera Pictures & Movies???
any suggestions???
Hey guys,
I am using SGS2 as well. My phone keeps rebooting like more than 2 times a day. randomly. I convince myself not to blame gingerbread2.3.5, thus i tried uninstall my apps in batch (5-10apps each round) and see which batch of my apps cause the prob, if they are not those who cause rebooting issue, i install them back (in phone space not SD card) but so far i still couldn't found and just few mins ago it rebooted again. it happens after the upgrade from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5, after i downloaded a few apps and updated a few apps. I will finish with the un-installation and re-installation.

saw this thread. people were talking about the Dolphin HD which caused the reboot issue, did you have Dolphin browser app installed?
I am having the same issue, too
It started on my S2 after the latest firmware update. I can unmount the SD card and the phone boots OK. I read somewhere that my SD card may have issues, so I purchased another and moved all of my files. The problem reoccurs with the new SD card. I do not have Dolphin browser installed.
I had this issue. I reformatted my sd card and then moved some apps and data back. One week reboot free. 32gb sandisk

In my SGS2 it reboots sometimes in the market, i dont know what to do...
test your sd card for errors...!? thats where i'd start
same problem ... do not restart I had to remove the microSD .. : (.... How do we fix??
SG2 rebooting all the time also
My Sg2 is rebooting every 20 minutes or so.
Is formatting the the SD card a fix?
Mine used to reboot 3 to 5 times a day. Did a factory reset and formatted the internal SD card and set everything backup without Dolphin browser and it's been good for about a week now, no more reboots.
Whether that was because of the rumor that Dolphin browser caused it or from the reformat of the sd card I don't know. But I'm happy none the less.
Got the same problem. It started 2 days ago, and the only fix I've found was to remove apps from my SD card.
From what I've tested :
- Formatting the SD card and copying back all the files doesn't help.
- Removing the SD card or having an empty one works.
- Uninstalling the Dolphin browser didn't help.
- Doubt it's a specific app causing the issue (nothing weird on my S2)
- Removing X number of apps on the SD card seems to work. Now I'm not sure if I had to clear a specific number of apps or a number of MBs, but it works (for now).
Hopefully we'll see a fix soon.

Yours sounds like a problem with an app...
Everyone else should test their sd cards for errors or try fixing bad sectors...
Used to happen on my previous phones with crap sd cards... Once I bought a decent good quality one its never happened
about a month and a half ago I removed dolphin and my reboots stopped. They started up again and my card became corrupted. Decided to go no-card for a while. Was fine for a month. Decided to go for a good deal on a sandisk 16 and 2 days later after moving a bunch of apps on the reboots are back.
Points to a card issue. I've been though 3 cards on this phone now and am about to reset it to factory and bring it in for diagnostics.
Driving me nuts.

I've got a Samsung class 10.. I Highly recommend
Sent from my GT-I9100
I got the same issue (2.3.5) and my SD Card is calss 4, the only way to avoid restart prob. Is to root and downgrade to 2.3.4
Waiting for any other feedback.
Any update Guys,,,,???
This problem is still occur in ICS leaks..
Without knowing this thread I have created similar thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21457609
Still, my thread is to gather data about how many user can reproduce this issue.
This issue is side effect starting from Samsung update 2.3.5..
The only way to avoid this issue is by downgrading to 2.3.4 or lower version.
Dears,
yesterday I has a surprise about Teamviewer.
My ROM is I9100XXLPB.
It was installed, I still have the link on home screen, but if I tap it, system says "Application not Installed"
Effectively, I can't see it in drawer and in applications list.
I've been trying to restore it with Titanium Backup, nothing to do.
Again with Titanium, I've also tried to unlink all applications from market and relink, useless.
Also the cache wipe is useless.
I also deleted all files containing "teamviewer" from the device, nothing.
Finally, following some posts, I flashed CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXX_LPB-v5.2-CWM5-PROPER, but also this doesn't solve the problem.
From market, if I install Teamviewer, download is ok but then I'm returned this message:
"Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card."
Can anybody help me to fix?
Thanks a lot!
You're using a leaked, unstable ROM so you should therefore expect issues. If you encounter them, instead of making a new thread, read/post in the existing threads dealing with the ROM.
There's currently over 2000 posts in the "main" thread dealing with that ROM.

Unmount the external SD Card...from settings-Storage. Reinstall Teamviewer from market.. Then mount SD Card back.. Do the same for any other affected Apps before mounting the SD card.. You need to follow the same steps for these Apps updates

Hi everyone,
I'm terrible sorry if I'm asking a question that's been answered before, but I tried my best searching the forums to find a solution without luck.
I've just flashed my phone to cyanogen first, and then paranoidandroid. The problem i'm having is that i can't get my sd card working.
It works in CWM, and I've tried formatting it there many times; but i only get the "Blank SD card" error, and nothing happens when i format it
in android. I've tried formatting it in windows in FAT32, but i just get the same error msg or "Damaged SD card" error.
I think I got it working in cyanogen by changing the location for where the image were being stored, but i can't find that option in paranoidandroid even though it looks like the exact same camera app.
My phone is i9300t and the sd card i'm using is sandisk 64g.
And responds is welcomed with thanks

Edit; got it working by putting it into another phone and transferring a file on it.
After Install NOTE 3 ROM COLOSSUS™ 5.0.0914 by RemZej & CMahendra for A116 I have this Problem.
I've tried looking around online and finding details on this error, and so far nothing that has been suggested has worked! Whenever I try to install larger apps, I get the "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD Card" error. I noticed this last night when trying to install Bloons TD5. After downloading and attempting to install it for a while, I'd get the above error. I then tried downloading a smaller app (Words) and that one worked with no problems. Went back to Bloons, same error. I then tried Monopoly since I know that's a bigger app too, but got the same error above.
The majority of fixes have said to unmount/remount the SD card, but I don't have the option to do that as there's no SD card in my device (MMX CHD A116). Both the USB and SD Card unmount options are dark/grayed out and unusable. Another forum said to search for an mnt folder, but that doesn't exist on my device. I tried searching within "internal storage" for the culprit file for most people (smdl2tmp1.asec) and it didn't find anything. This also isn't about me not having room - I've got 1.9 GB available. I've tried turning the device off and back on, and also searching in the Play Store's settings to see if maybe for some reason it was trying to save large files to the SD card, but couldn't find a relevant option. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
If the device is rooted.

Hello everyone,
This is my very first time rooting my LG Optimus F6 phone by following GameTheory's tutorials, and unfortunately for me I ran into a problem when moving apps to my SD ext4 partition using Link2SD. Let me be more detailed as to what I did that got me into this mess... Once rooted and with Link2SD installed, I proceeded to creating the 2 usual partitions, FAT32 and ext4. My first mistake was that I created the partitions backwards (without realizing it), the one I wanted the biggest ended up being the smallest. After moving some apps to the SD I figured it would be a good idea to update them, so I did. After updating all the apps, I realized the partition sizes were wrong. Here's where I messed everything up... I decided to unlink all apps I linked (moved) to the SD so that I could reformat the SD to the proper partition sizes, but problem was that after the update it wouldn't let me break the link for some. Knowing this, I still went ahead and reformatted the SD card. This is when I realized some of those apps where part of the system and I needed to re-install them since I kept getting errors from various apps, mainly Google apps. My problem from that point on has been that Google Play Services got deleted from the system and I can't seem to get it to install, I keep getting an "insufficient storage available" error message when I try to download it. There's still 770MB of internal memory available (not SD partition). Can anyone help me get this resolved, please?
Thanks in advance and sorry for the long explanation.
