[Q] Security policy and SD card - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey mates
At every ROM boot iam getting a message:
"Security policy restricts use of external SD card"
How can i solve this mess?
Couldnt find any solution =( and this problem is rather popular
1. It shows even WITHOUT my ext SD card, so the problem starts in internal storage.
Both storages are working flawlessly.
2. There is no any device administrators.
Great thanks in advance!:good:

Hmm.. No idea... So I first suggest that you install an app from the play store that generates log files, reboot your device,after the problem occurs immediately generate a log file, and upload it here, let's see whether we can trace the problem

First of all here is the Mirko's answer (coz its on Disaster v11):
It s just a public value mismatch, instead of "media scanner" public value there s another public value that call that string. I m too lazy to look for it, it s just a string.

Looks like you will need a mod fix for that since it's only a string which gets called, lol he actually said that? Hmm maybe there is no text search in his editor or he must be pissed and tired to search for it.

You probably will have to edit your framework.jar file, hmmm you wanna try it yourself? So are you experienced in Java programming? All you have to do is do a text search for it in a editor(modify dex file) and replace it with a null value or delete the public variable which calls the string or override the public var with null.
Edit : Do it only if you're sure enough, also if it ain't from the framework, then you will have to search around your modded apk by finding which all gets initialized during bootup.
Edit: ah I forgot that the dev mentioned "media scanner" you won't need to check around apks at all you might need to check out services.jar also though.
Edit :i mentioned class file it was a sudden mistake, I actually meant the "dex" file, silly me, I corrected it, so it's generally like this, decompile dex, edit, recompile, repack jar.

Quite frankly doing the above for just a harmless string is quite unnecessary, just enjoy or find a major bug that needs fixing like a bug which hinders actual functionality a inform the related dev, alongside mention this and he might fix this also.

Something? Lol? Be sure not to mess with those jar files too much highly risky... Besides corrupting your startup and ui and functions, I don't know what all it can do...

I've been looking for a solution to this "security policy restricts the use of external sd card", and I use DiasterRom v11 as well.
The only difference is this.
I took the ROM and used "kitchen" on it, as I wanted to remove some apks.
Well I used kitchen to extract everything,
did nothing to it, and let kitchen rebuild it.
then I installed it, and that's when I get the error: "security policy restricts the use of external sd card".
when I install the original ROM, I get no errors.
I also posted the same question here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/modified-diasterrom-v11-kitchen-t2773615
So any help would be appreciated!
