Hello
I have a big problem. Every time i start my sgs2 new, some applications are deleted and some setups also gone. I have Checkrom hd v6 and Android 2.3.6. I tried siyah and speedmod kernel, but nothing has changed. I hope some of you can help me. I searched but I couldn't find some threads where my problem was mentioned.

The app called "TVGo Live TV" and the setup data of "NoLED" are missing. I forgot that some apps change there places.

Yes and stock rom will wipe the phone though some stuff may still be on the sd card .
jje
So this is like I would format the sd card or is there an different between format sd card and install the stock rom? Or do I have I to do both?

I have found an other folder called LostDir (the other folder was on the external SD) . There are some files. I made a screenshot. What is it? And what can I do with this information?
Story:
First a factory reset from the phone.
I have wiped all, battery stats, user files, caches and Dalvik cache, all you can wipe from Clockwork.
Then I formated everything that you can format in Clockwork.
After this I flashed original firmware (unbranded version though) from Odin.
I got rid of the problems I had except one.
Every time I reboot the phone warns that I lost connection for roaming, until I start internet.
Only I have roaming disabled in settings.
Also there was STILL files left in the phone, the folder and files accepted via bluetooth on internal sd card.
I don't know if there's anything else left but these files showed up in Gallery.
How can this be after I reset, wiped and formatted everything? Makes no sense to me.
I really have no idea what to do.
Cant find anything similar in threads to find sollutions from.
And it seems to be pointless to wipe and reformat yet another time.
Any tips at all to get me started would be really great!
You have to manually delete everything. Clockwork does not delete storage files.

I know, I meant the system reset, wipe and formats.
But even in CW there is options to format system amongst other tings, that should have done it I think?

Hmm.. no I haven't.
Samsung support thinks the 3G chip is broken? I don't know about that?
I've tried several ROMs on my Neo MT15i, rooted, unlocked bootloader, alliance kernel 1.5, firmware .587. Now I'm on Thilinac Ice cream pureness 14 sp1. Everything is working well..... but... Every time I reboot the phone I MUST clean cache and Dalvik cache via CWM recovery. If I don't do it , after booting several apps go force closing in loop and the phone is unusable. I've had this problem also with other ROMs like Jelly-Sandwich, any release. Tried also to format sdcard without benefit.
Thank you for help
Try clearing app data from settings!
Then,reboot

Unfortunely it doesn't work....
It afflicts every app I install as user, either in system /data, or in sdcard.
After installing a new Rom, on a clean system, I use titanium backup to re-install my apps.

I do this every time I install new ROM
I've formatted system, data, cache, everything. Than reinstalled the ROM (Ice cream Pureness 14 sp1).
when booted I didn't reinstall anything from Titanium and tried a reboot......... As usual, Gmail and Google playstore
went FC loop. GMail and Playstore are apps coming with the ROM .... Than I rebooted in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache and .... all run perfectly and smooth... The problem is still there.
Next time I'll try formatting all, reflash firmware .587, and than reinstall ROM.

Exactly. I had this problem with JellySandwich too, I tried several ROMs, but, at last, what I like more is IceCreamPureness for its balance , smothness and for very good battery life.
And how u solve this FC problem?

explained in previous post.
The problem is related to the moving of apps to sd card or in system partition. It afflicts the managment of dalvik cache

I asked about that b4 and they told me it's ok about partitioning sd card.. I was suspicious about link2sd and u confirmed that now but iam disappointing the basic reason that I root for is to move all applications on sd card

Hi guys,
I've finally upgraded my phone and put a custom rom on it. I went with CyanogenMod 10.2, as it's in a stable version, however it keeps freezing for me..
Previously I had the stock Samsung Touchwhiz Android, and that would freeze sometimes also. As it turned out, it was due to the amount of free space on my internal sd card, so creating a bunch of 'dummy' files, so that there wasn't much free space, would prevent the freezing.
My question is, could this free space problem still be an issue with the new Cyanogenmod rom installed? The new rom freezes very often, a lot more often than it would with Touchwhiz, but I've got heaps more free space (as I did a format of the internal card before flashing), so that could be the reason for the increased freeze rate.
If not, how do I go about checking what errors are thrown when my phone does freeze?
Thanks,
Luke

Use the cyanogenmod installer. It does a clean install of everything.

Thanks for the reply. Where do I get the cyanogenmod installer from?
The way I was installing the cyanogenmod was through CWM. I first did a factory reset, then I wiped the cache, then I wiped the dalvik cache, and only after that did I select to apply an update from the sdcard, where I selected the first one from this list (that I had already downloaded and copied to the sd card) http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=i9300&type=stable.
Is this process different to the cyanogenmod installer?
I downloaded the eMMC check app, and it tells me that I have the 'Insane Chip', which means I'm prone to SGS3 Sudden Death. Attached is a screenshot of the app (I've had to take a photo with an old phone, as the S3 had frozen again at this point).
This is after I restored a backup that I had made through CWM, so that's why the icons are green (ala Touchwhiz), and not blue, as per stock android.
Thanks,
Luke

Hi everyone
I've downloaded and installed MIUI v5 4.1.3 and today it says I should upgrade to a new version. and I prefer to upgrade because of some bugs.
after I click the version in updater app, it says you should reboot your phone and continue it from CWM.
when I reboot and installing it from CWM suddenly it crashes, and the dead android image appear on the background. after rebooting the device it's still on the pre-version.
How I should upgrade this ROM without loosing any data and app?

Not necessary but you may have problems! When I say full wipe use Philz install a new rom settings in Wipe/Data/Factory Reset menu the second option clean to install new rom.This will leave your internal and external SD cards alone.

You can install from internal because PhilZ recovery does not wipe internal card (unless you ask it to) but I would recommend installing all roms from external in-case for some inexplicable reason your internal gets wiped you would then have no rom to install
When ever you need to update or install new roms always keep on external sd card thats best practice.
If this is OTA Update you just need to go into recovery and try manual updation using install from a file. Goto internal sd card 》 miui 》 and select the file which just came during updation. You can recognize by version number.
If this is zip file dowloaded then it better to have backup first using the TWRM or philz recovery in external sd card. Then flash the zip.
The reason being the update script might have lines of code to format the data/cache/system/delvick. Which in turn you will loose your data after updation.
Note again backup using recovery on external card can help you recover you stuff any time
Cheers

From the screen shot it looks its trying to patch the old ROM with some exisitng library. It failing because may be the lib expecting does not exists or belongs to different version on ROM file.
It tough to to corelate the stuff which is mention in Updater script. You might need to take a look on this file and verify its action against the existing system. Take a look on zip file >> META-INF >> com >> google >> android >> updater-script.

Your using a older version of PhilZ recovery try this one >> http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9300 << if it still persists try downloading rom update again it may be a corrupt file.
