any help would be great ? and when i get into this more i will be glad to send funds to developers via paypal ex

CWM is super easy to use......go the OP of the CWM beta1 thread and he elxplains the ins and outs of getting into CWM. once your in it....all you have to do is have the file at the root of the SD card and go to install zip/install zip of SD/ then choose the zip and flash.
i do not have the beta on my phone yet, but i would just check the OP he seems to have laid it out pretty well.
You dont even need to have the file anywhere special on your SD card either. Just somewhere where you can find it because once you select install zip from sd card you have to navigate where you put it.

Look for external_sd folder or something like that.

If you didn't put a microSD card in your phone for extra storage it won't have a "external SD" folder.
I do have a 16g sd , it has the. Ext sd card fie but was not there

Ok well open up the "my files" app and scroll down to see if a "external_sd" folder exists. If it isn't there then go to settings -> storage, and make sure the SD card is mounted.
If you download a Rom directly from your note it should be in a folder called "download"

Well "my files" shows the sd card, and the settings only shows unmount option for safe removel, so I'm sure its mounted

Not sure if I should have created a new thread for this but here goes. I flashed CWR through Odin yet when I go into recovery it's still stock recovery?
Did I do something wrong, I got success in Odin?
EDIT: I figured it out, my bad.
Hi,
I have 3 problems related to applications for which I can't find solution.
1st is that after removing/uninstalling applications and then restarting phone at some point for whatever reason there are visible remnants of them. (screenshot attached)
I am able to uninstall them again, but after another restart they are back. So how to get rid of them for good?
2nd problem is that certain applications seems to uninstall/delete themselves upon phone reboot. It seems its related to SD card where they put themselves during install. I have tried to move majority of apps back to phone, but seems only some of them are affected by this. There are apps which are installed/moved to SD and they work fine even after restart, so don't know. Maybe some of them are not working after moving to SD? Although for some its strange because they install itself to SD without me moving them.
3rd problem appeared today. Yesterday I have updated to ICS via Kies and installed 5 updates from Market. Today after restart the same apps were back to previous versions and Market offered me the same updates for the same apps. Whats the problem with this?
Thx for your help
Reads as possible corruption of SD card .
Check Lost File folders .
jje
And how do I do it? What folders? LOST.DIR?
Or to put to computer and run chkdsk to check lost files?
wen u some times move apps to sd an wen a aoto update takes place so wen rebooted then either appear as shown in screen shot,cause get deleted an flashing roms then restoring from titanium also gives some app prblm....the best way is format ur ext card on pc .....and if u want to clean all crap which u don want(lost.dir)is a folder were chunks r stored...but coming to point if u want to clean all mess go in recovery an formatt sd card,format system,emmc all ,,an reboot an ur stuck on sammy logo means u hav nothing on phone ,so go in download mode an flash stock via odin.....imp backup ur efs b4 any thing

I don't think many people can grasp anything this guy says. His "english" is pretty difficult to read. I'll try to translate for you.

I THINK what he's suggesting is that when you have apps installed to your sd card, then an update occurs, then if there are differences in how partitioning works between your old OS version and your new OS version, you may lose some apps.

Then there's a bunch of unintelligible gibberish... Seems to be suggesting that restoring apps using Titanium backup can cause issues, and suggests formatting the external SD card on your PC instead of in your phone.

He seems to suggest cleaning items from the LOST.DIR folder that you may not want.

Then he seems to say if all else fails, reboot to recovery, format everything.

And if you're stuck after a reboot after you do all that, then flash a stock firmware via odin.

Back up your /efs folder before you do anything. (which I agree with wholeheartedly)
I think I translated that correctly.
Thanks for your translation mate although I am not sure if he said anything what can help me except deleting and formatting all which is really something what I would like to avoid for now.
LOST.DIR is empty on both internal and external SD card.
Also the problem with remnants was happening before I upgraded to ICS, do I don't think its related to partitioning at all.

Last time I had this issue, it was on my Moto Milestone where I had app2sd running, and my SD card was becoming corrupted. I had to format my SD card and re-install the affected apps.
Hmm, I am not using any external app like app2sd, just the option which is offering Android itself. You were formatting internal or external one?

I was describing my condition on one of my old phones. (An old Motorola Milestone, which did not have an internal SD) Not an I9100.
If you are using the default app2sd in Android, then you'll want to format internal. But back up all your files (music, pictures, whatever else) before you do, obviously.
I see. Yeah I was planning to do backup of course, but if I copy back all after format won't be back also the problem?
Lost dir from me was to check for corruption as thats where corrupt sd card files go.
Copy backup to PC just in case .

hey pal before trying 2 delete any app please ensure that u have cleard the data and cache of the same since they do pose a problem later also manually delete all those app folders on ur sdcard after deleting the apps

It shouldn't matter...
But my advice is to go through your installed apps and make a list of all apps that are marked as installed to your SD. Then uninstall all of the ones that are. Then back up your internal SD, and do your format of internal SD.
DO NOT copy back the .android_secure folder after you format. This is the folder that Android uses for it's built-in app2sd. (so it will get created again automatically later)
That means you'll have to re-install all of the apps you made a list of above, but it SHOULD help alleviate your problem.

The condition he describes is that the app is no longer being registered as installed. So I don't think he'll be able to do this.
Thanks mate, I am now making backup of internal SD card before formatting although there is no .android_secure folder. There is one on external SD card, but its empty. Anyway will try the format after all the data are copied.
So backup done, formatted card, copied all back, restarted phone and the remnants are still there

Hmm.. you may not have a choice but to do a factory reset/full wipe to get rid of 'em. Sorry dude.
Thats not what I wanted to hear. Should I go for factory reset available directly from Android or should I boot to recovery and go with factory reset/wipe data or wipe cache?

Either one should be fine.
FYI, you can back up most stuff you have and restore using various methods, so you can get back to your current state... it will just take a bit of effort.
And which would you recommend? I have Titanium Backup Pro to use or is there easier way?

Go to settings->apps->all tab->media storage->clear data. Do it without your sd card in. Replace sd card and turn on phone and it will rescan the sd card correctly.
Back up anything in the /media stoage folder to your sd card before you do this.
Go to apps, all apps, find media storage and clear data, then reboot phone.
Problem solved.
Edit. Ya beat me by a min, lol.

Yes, it is very possible. First you have to make sure that you don't download anything on your phone, upload music, or pictures. If you already have, then you wont recover all of it. If you're using make, download EaseUS Mac Photo Recovery Free. If windows, then download one of the programs listed in the enclosed link. Good luck

Once you nuke your sd card (format it) everythings gone!!! End of story. Thats why its important to use cloud storage or in my case that and a flash usb drive everything thats backed up on to your sd card once you format it do a factory reset its gone
