okay this has happened to me twice before already and is starting to get very annoying.. the first times i had to reformat the whole SD card and start completely anew
i am using American android 2.3.5 booting from SD card. first boot takes about 5 minutes and no problems whatsoever. after some time for some reason i have to restart the phone, and when i boot into the load screen ( the screen which says Powered by american android ) its just stuck there the whole time. taking out the battery and trying to boot again numerous times has failed.
can anyone help with this problem?

Can anyone explain the ratioanle behind this?
see if you have a folder called android on sd card,this rom seems to create a folder called android,with sub folder called data.
delete both,data and them android,phone should boot and load properly then,but you have to remember to delete it everytime you close down,or boot windoes first and do the delete then.
have had same prob with multiple aa roms.

hijacking threads is considered rude, hoqwever to explain it, it stops people with one post who haven't read anything, filling chefs rom release threads with 'i want get this on my phone, how do i do it, tell me now' posts.

Thanks, deleting the DATA subfolder worked. Booted but seems to be stuck, no screen display. After waiting for 10 or 15 minutes, screen came on after pressing a few buttons. Everything seems to be like it was.

No, you have to install easybcd on your working os (w7) than use it creating new boot option for w8

Lol that was my problem all along I didn't have a repair disk, but it seems that easybcd saved me, I seached on google "can I boot easybcd?" And what would you know one of the top results was repairing the bootloader, and they had a store where you could buy the repair disks for $10, so its all good now. Oh and I put easybcd on the computer and backed up my bootloader this time. But I'm not gonna put windows 8 on it, I put it on my laptop and it sucks, its not slow or anything, it just seems to tablety.
Anyway, thanks!

I have a Fathom that I was messing around with Android on and still had the files on my HDD. Uploaded them to 4shared:
~90MB Android 2.3.5

Wifi Files (Don't know if you need them but I'll upload anyways)

It is stuck at "Jumping to Kernel". Any help? Step-by-step instructions?
Are the files placed in a folder called "fathom" which is placed in the root of the SD card.

Sure. Do this and you will be fine.
1) Download the files. https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=5a36dd445483e8d8&resid=5A36DD445483E8D8!1568&parid=root
2)Extract the "fathom" folder inside the archive.
3)Move the extracted "fathom" FOLDER and move/copy to the ROOT of your SD card. Not the files inside the folder, and not the zip file itself either.
4)Go to your LG Fathom. Go to the "fathom" folder in the SD Card, then click on the "CLRCAD.exe" file. I heard it enables the sound, but it doesn't work for me. But just do it in case.
5)Launch the "haret" exe file. It is a longer name, but it starts with "haret".
6)Wait and enjoy.
The thing is, when I run it Android crashes and restarts every 10 seconds. Literally. Is it the hardware's fault? Anyone have better files? Or maybe an older version of Android to let it run smoother? Well I am not running it again until there is a fix. -_-

got it!! on the last link that i gave you by Georgi-geo, don't change the name of the folder to Fathom.. after you extract the zip from the link, u get a folder named 2.2 just copy 2.2 to your storage card root and run and wait for at least 15-20 seconds... and it works gud, no lags, no reboots in a loop...
Go to network settings disable Airplane mode and wait for a few seconds until it disables fully and ur gsm network shows up...

I have 3,000 mb on my storage card! What's wrong with my device? Probably because I screwed some files up by accident... And hopefully CMDA will work since I use Verizon.
Did u have any luck??? try using a lesser memory SD card (2 GB preferable) and try to format it using FAT32 before u copy 2.2 folder and try running Haret when still connected to PC via USB...
One more thing.. do u know of any good GPS software that works on GSM in Fathom? btw I am not from US

I reverted back to HC from F/Reaper using APXFlash Tool, ended up at 3.0.1
Took OTA's until I got to 3.2 when I got an error of "not enough internal memory
to install" - or something to that effect.
Strange I'm thinking - check Settings>Apps and I have 15MB free of 126MB??
wtf - 126MB you gotta be joking - Where has all my storage gone?? Device i
nformation in Settings
hows Rom Size of 32GB - I'm at a bit of a loss here -
At least with 3.1 I can root and get cwm -
any suggestions??
UPDATE 1:
did full wipe and format, check settings, no change, 126MB TOTAL
then I thought, holy s**t, have I somehow formatted this while reverting last nite??
so I chech the flash.cfg files in the tool, with an EUU I used with timmydeans zip.
they are different, I just not sure, whether that is responsible for my current issue...
so next trick is to try flashing ics again
Figure out the problem?

did a full data wipe in CWM and re-flashed ICS. Got all my memory back.
I found these instructions posted by Thor on TegraOwners. All credit goes to him.
"here's how to:
go to in recovery enter "Backup and Restore" and click on "Toggle backup and restore of internal storage (/data/media)"
should say enabled....
then go into "Mounts and Storage" and "format /data"
this will REALLY format data and you will loose all you have in the in the internal memory"

I followed the steps on the forum to swap my internal memory with my SD card to increase space for apps. It worked great everything seemed to be working perfect at first. I had to do some house cleaning with broken links to ringtones and pictures but I somewhat expected that. The other day I was reading there was an update for Chrome Beta so when I got home I started the update. After it downloads and tries to install I get an error message that says Insufficient storage available. I have about 16gb free on my "new" internal memory. I deleted a large 2gb app and data but it still gives me the same error. I did do some looking but didn't find anything use full. Any help will be appreciated.
EDIT: It is not just Chrome Beta every app I try and update says the same thing. I also tried downloading random apps but i just finally ran in to the error after a very large app tried to install.

Thanks thought I had it figured out last night using TWRP but I'll go through that post and figure it out.
I think I did it now. I had to go back and revert all my original attempts at it to get it to work. I can see the internal as the external and the SD card is mounted as internal. Haven't tried to add a bunch of apps yet to see if it gives me the same message as before. I did get all my ringtones back I lost after swamping the memory using the wrong way for my version of android.
Be sure to get twrp 2632.
For this fix to work you need zip of two different ROMs one with working adopted sd and other is the rom you want to flash ( the one showing corrupted sd card when you try to format it as internal eg- cm).
I recommend you to use orion as the first zip (the one with working adopted sd).
Now follow these steps:-
1- Flash the first zip in which adopted is working fine.
2-format your sd card as internal
3- using any root explorer copy misc folder from data and paste it in your sd card
4-now perform a clean flash of your desired ROM (dont wipe sd card)
5- before rebooting go to file manager of twrp copy misc folder that you copied in step 3 to the data folder.
6- reboot , you will notice you have a working adopted sd (no need to format it again).
Well its long method but it would surely work and you can switch roms without loosing adopted sd data with the same method.
Feel free to ask if you didn't get something.

It's the same thing mentioned in here

Either you dirty flash the 2nd rom or copy the misc folder. It's the same thing.
Isn't it's easier to dirty flash rather copying and pasting things?
And success rate with this method is 100 % for every rom

Maybe.
Since after flashing the first rom, the only thing we're supposed to setup is the google account and no other user apps. Since we are dirty flashing the second rom, there's no messing with data partition. So chances of having bootloop is very low.

For this fix to work you need zip of two different ROMs one with working adopted sd and other is the rom you want to flash ( the one showing corrupted sd card when you try to format it as internal eg- cm).
I recommend you to use orion as the first zip (the one with working adopted sd).
Now follow these steps:-
1- Flash the first zip in which adopted is working fine.
2-format your sd card as internal
3- using any root explorer copy misc folder from data and paste it in your sd card
4-now perform a clean flash of your desired ROM (dont wipe sd card)
5- before rebooting go to file manager of twrp copy misc folder that you copied in step 3 to the data folder.
6- reboot , you will notice you have a working adopted sd (no need to format it again).
Well its long method but it would surely work and you can switch roms without loosing adopted sd data with the same method.
Feel free to ask if you didn't get something.

orion takes a bit more time to boot cause it optimizes apps behind boot animations......and there are three roms which have force move commit that are RR Orion and vrtoxin

First copy the folder........then first try dirty flash of latest nighlty if it boots you are lucky....if you get boot loop wipe every thing .....flash ROM and then paste misc folder to data
