Permission error when saving anything to sdcard - HTC Droid DNA

I first noticed that when I went to take pictures that a toast message would popup that said something along the lines of "Unable to save file to sdcard due to insufficient file privaleges". Originally I thought it was the Rom at fault which I will leave nameless beings that its occoring with every Rom I've flashed since as well. But only after switching between the 3 Roma I had saved on my sdcard prior to this incident, I tried to download a newer Rom to see if it was a bug that had been fixed but couldn't download anything to my sdcard. The only time I can download is through the market or via adb push so I know the internal storage isn't broken, but not recieving the correct permissions.
Has anyone else experienced this or have a fix because I don't want to bring the phone back "re-locked" and ask for a replacement. But I also do not want to buy a new phone or go through asurion. Thanks in advance and happy hollidays!

Backup everything from your storage. Go into recovery and format /sdcard. I had the same thing happen. Worked fine after the format and restoring the files.

I'm getting ready to head home so ill do it when I get there. Should I format it in cwmr recovery or through settings just so I make sure I do it the way you did it. Less room for error lol. And thanks a lot I'm really hoping that it helps! I miss having the camera mostly for taking pictures of my 14 month old Son Hambo!

[Q] How to do restore using bootstrap?

Hey guys, I'm another newbie who F'ed up their phone here to ask for help lol. I tried to do a restore using the system recovery and it froze, I did a batter pull and soft bricked it I guess. I tried doing a sbf, and I couldn't figure it out but my phone just randomly restarted and it seemed like the sbf worked. So I just tried to restore the data only in advanced recovery and I think it is frozen again. Can anyone please explain how to do a proper restore from the bootstrap recovery? Thanks,

Please help..

My phone upon reboot usually gets stuck on a "Sorry! Process system is not responding" "Force Close" or "Wait".
Neither option works and I have to do a battery pull.
It doesn't matter what ROM I use it always happens.
Would someone be able to tell me how to get a log from bootup? And would someone be willing to look at the log for me?
Thanks guys!

I don't mean to sound like a tool by suggesting this, but, have you wiped? Wipe cache and dalvik to start off with see if that works...and if it doesn't do a full wipe and get back to us.
Again, I'm not trying to be a ****...if you are beyond this level of help, well, we're gunna need more details.
i can tell you how to get a log but i cant tell you whats wrong using the log
plug your phone into your computer, using adb type in "adb logcat" and press enter and you should see a whole bunch of text start appearing
before you flash a rom do you do factory resets and make sure to wipe your cache and dalvik cache? that could be the problem..
I have done it all, wiped dalvik, cache, and everything else. I even tried using CWM instead of twrp and the issue remains.
Thanks everyone for trying to help...

If you've done a full wipe and tried different roms then I would be inclined to believe that the issue is likely hardware.

I would use TWRP and do this:
Go into wipe menu, then Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, wipe data (factory reset). Go into advanced menu (I think) and there should be another wipe menu. Wipe /system. Then flash the ROM of your choice and it should be fixed. Wiping /system manually is the key since some ROMs don't do that (mine does, however)
Thanks ill try the advanced system wipe.

In a word, yes. Are any of these 'bargain' cards you got online by chance? If not and they are from a reputable vendor I would put them in the computer, copy data off and format them....and if that still doesn't help find a 'known good' card and go on from there. The stock card would be preferable, but, if you can't find that a 'known good' card is the next best thing. If the stock card or a 'known' good card doesn't help I'm still inclined to think it's a hardware error...but after hearing about the SDcard I'm leaning towards the phone is fine the card is screwed.

{For All Xperia} Online Nandroid Backup / Nandroid Backup without re-booting

Hey there guys I came across this useful tool today when I was poking around the ARC section it lets you make a nandroid without having to boot into recovery. This isnt my work Im simply passing it on so I hope he doesnt care too much about me posting this here.
***ALL crdeit goes to ameer1234567890***
Nandroid backups are usually performed in recovery mode. This means you would have to turn off your phone and reboot in recovery mode, which wastes a whole lot of time rebooting and a lot more time offline. For me, this has been a killer as I do regular nandroid backups. Having to reboot in recovery and finding missed calls, sms from my wife and friends is totally not accepatable for me. So, I set to develop an online nandroid backup tool which can do nandroid backups without switching off my phone.
Today, I am releasing it to public, as it may serve good for some others too. This tool is specifically for Xperia phones, but should work with any model of android phones.
This tool backups /system , /data , /cache & .android_secure partiotions to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup directory. The date format used for folder name is the same used by CWM itself and nandroid backups created with this tool can safely be restored using CWM. If you would want to have a custom name for backup folder, pass an argument with the name to the script and it will use the name.
Feedback (especially ideas to improve) are most welcome.
Requirements
1. Rooted android phone
2. A terminal emulator installed on phone
3. Busybox
4. A working CWM based recovery installed
5. Some patience
Installation
1. Download and copy zip file to SD card
2. Reboot into recovery
3. Choose install zip from SD card, select zip and flash .
4. Reboot!
Usage
1. Open terminal emulator
2. Type su to obtain root
3. Type onandroid
4. Wait and watch

Isn't this inherently flawed since files on the rom are still being used and written while the backup is taking place? Neat idea though, don't get me wrong

I tried to do a restore from the online nandroid backup I made and even though it said "restore complete" my SD-ext(4) partition would not load its shortcuts and widgets. The funny part is link2sd didn't even detect any SD-ext as if it wasn't backed up. I thought it said that it backed up SD-ext during online backup, but not sure. I'm wondering if it might help to factory restore before restoring backup. I may try that to see and I'll report back if noone reports similar problem.
Edit**During backup I was not doing anything else with phone other then watching the amazing online backup screen. Also I tried to "re-create mount scripts" but never got option from link2sd even after reboot.

This tool (prior to v3) does not backup sd-ext partition. In the first post, you can see what the tool backups.
PS: If you can send me a previous backup of your sd-ext, I can work on adding sd-ext backup support to the script.
I still can't get this to work.

[Q] phone bricked in twrp mode with no rom? help!!!

hi ,
i try to flash a new rom from the phone turned out that was not the correct zip file i downloaded. now i wiped cache and system and when i try to system boot it says no os so i cannot boot again. basically i'm stuck in twrp. can somebody please help. how should i flash new rom ?
Did you not make a backup?
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
Not sure if this is what you need,a member here much smarter than I told me this about my E970 when it was unplugged before the backup was made.
In the end these phones are basically unbrickable, so you can always get into download mode (Vol up + Vol down +usb cable +power) and use LGNPST to restore back to stock. LGNPST info can be found on irc
I do not know what irc is but there ya go,google away and hope it works .
I don't completely understand what I'm doing when I'm doing things to my phone. All I know is that some pretty great people with a much better understanding of the inner workings of phones tell me to do this or that. On that note, why are people so quick to say their phone is bricked when they still have a phone that will boot into something? Anyway...
What if you try removing the sd card, use another phone or an adapter for a pc, to download a rom to it. Put it back in your phone boot into recovery and flash it.
Or use that LGPNST, or whatever you call it, method...

If you are in TWRP you could use the file manager under advanced to try and move the .zip to internal memory. Then see if you can flash.
But I always flash from external and never have issues.
You may have a corrupt .zip, maybe try downloading it again and then try again.
I had an issue where my SD card wasn't Fat32 so TWRP wouldn't put anything on the SD or boot anything off the SD. I can't remember if I could browse the folders with TWRP's file manager or not though. That's not much help I know, but might be worth looking into. You can try formatting your SD as Fat32, loading the stock ROM on it, then see if TWRP will flash it.

Force Delete a file

I have a file in my /data/data folder that is causing a ton of problems and will not delete through root explorer. There is something inside the folder keeping if from deleting. When I restart the phone, the renamed file goes back to the original file name. How can I force delete this file?
its /data/data/com.android.browser
TIA.

You try deleting in recovery? Mount system in TWRP go to advance. .file explorer.. go to directory data/data/com.android.browser..Select it and delete

Ok,
Giving that a try right now. I never even thought to use TWRP for that. Brilliant. so I get to that spot...and as I type its been on a deleting dialog for a couple of moments, but this is what came up when I selected delete:
"Updating partition details...
E:error opening '/data/data/com.android.browser.
E: Error: Too many open files
Recovery rebooted after about 5 minutes and the file is still there. This file is stubborn. But it has to be the one causing the issues.
BTW, I appreciate your help in this.

No problem. I have been doing some reading.. doesn't look like there is a solution besides odin back to stock and then re unlocking..
Have you tried to format data? In twrp there is an option..

And I've started getting the too many files open error when I went to run a Nandroid backup last night. UGGG!!!
Either:
I'm doing something wrong,
I've got an app that is doing bad things to my phone,
or my phone is giving out.
I wonder if I've just flashed too much.

My wife has told me if I don't quit "borking" my phone from flashing she's going to buy me an IPhone. The horror!

Then you'll just jailbreak it and so the same
My wife said the same thing but she wouldn't buy me an IPhone, I would just be without a phone

Got it returned to stock, rooted, updated and backed up all before the first period of Playoff hockey was done. Now to flash the latest N3bula during intermission.
As always, Thanks lacoursiere18. I appreciate it
thanks for the post sucks about this news. You all said you think it is recovery related? and not browser related.
