[Help Me] Apps on Sd Poofed !

Hi, i am currently using Kyrillos Rom V 7.0 Non OC.
Yesterday,my phone battery drained to the end (not a problem until here).
When i arrived home i turned it on after charging for a while,but them,all my apps were gone. I can still see them at the Aplications Manager,but i cant "move to phone" (the box is hidden).
I got my SD card formated using a swap and a Ext4 partition so i can use Apps2SD+ and it was working fine for like 1 Month.
Also, my Market can't install any app anymore,since it shows "File Package is not Valid" message.
What i've tried :
1 - Setting / Storage / unmount - > mount Sd Card
2 - Recovery Mode -> Mount and Storage -> Mount Ext , Mount Sdcard , rebooted.
Nothing Worked,
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks.

Will this Wipe all my apps on Sd ?
I dont want to wipe my Sd card data by any means : (
Since i cant backup it using Titaniun Backup because i can't install it from market,i dont want to wipe my SD.
What exactly this "Wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache" does ?
EDIT : Ok, Seems it doesn't destroy any piece of user data.
Wipping it now,and will be back to tell what happened
Didn't worked.
Any other help ?
This same thing happened to one of my very good friends Jinxskore. He then had to wipe data, cache and dalvik. All three. Then it was normal again. Your data will be lost I am afraid.

Fack.
Well,i am still looking for a non hardcore solution,hope i find it .
Thanks anyway.
Anyone else ?
I'm starting to lose my faith : (
Try to use Titanium Backup, install it from your pc!
I have the same thing every time I boot up. After my media scanner is finished it just doesn't show my apps. Only sometimes when I wait very long it shows them. So I try to keep my phone on as long as I can. But I can't install apps from the market either. I touch for example 'free' press accept and it just doesn't start downloading anything! But a reboot fixes the install problem most of the time for a while...
Btw what kinda sd card are you using? I have a 16gb class 2.
So I blame my problems to that.
I have an idea
Hey about Contacts and SMS backup use relavant apps. Contacts can be backed up on Sd card and copied to pc, I dont think sms backup needed you can let them go if they are important PM me to tell you a method. I hope you have root explorer. If no download it from a PC file sharing website and simply install it. Go to /-->data-->app Copy all apks of your installed apps to sd.
Now you wont lose your apps. Backup SD. I would recommend to use *2676*3855# and Hard Reset/ Factory Format your phone. Format SD after complete backup and re partition do all again, set up phone enjoy it again.

s2e - cache moved - umount needs reboot

Hi,
I installed S2E and it has freed space by moving cache. When I unmount sdcard the phone stops working as if lost power. I need to replace battery and reboot. I suppose that some apps would need cache which causes this problem. any work around ?
Regards,
Miten.
There is no work around for that if you use s2e apps2sxt etc. I guess you could use terminal or adb and copy the files from the ext partition to your internal data, but that would be a hassle.
I will not recommend moving applications and private apps, just move dalvik cache and download cache. should solve ur problem.

[Q] No internal memory.

Hey.
I just bought HTC HD2 with already installed Android. It's this ROM according to informations i found in Settings > About Phone. It boots normally and run smooth.
I'm facing a few problems but all of them are leading to the one source. The main problem is when I go to the Settings > Storage it shows Internal Storage as follows: the bar is 100% green, Total space shows 0.00B and lower it says Apps (app data & media..) 73.80MB. I think it causes the rest of my problems such as all SMS's are rejected (Text message memory is full. An incoming message was rejected..) or every reboot it resets all the settings. If I cleared all the possible app's data the number under Apps (app data & media..) goes to ~70MB but nothing else changes (the bar is 100% green, and total space shows 0,00B).
This ROM is installed in DataOnEXT option, which I suppose mean I can expand internal memory by making ext4 partition on SD card. I tried it with two cards but it does not work. Here is how it looked after formating. The FAT32 partition is detected without problems, but ext4 not (or I don't understand how it should work?). Anyway it doesn't solve any of my problems.
I tried few other things such as wipes for example (as some suggests in similar problem subjects over few forums) but without results. I'm total beginner with Android system and totally don't know what should I do next. Is it possible to solve those problems without reinstalling Android? I'm a little scared to do it because i have totally no experience in this.
If there are any other informations needed please ask, preferably with a way how to check it. I don't know what else may be important. Also I hope you guys can understand my problem and hold out with such a beginner.

Sorry didn't see the "already installed!!.
You will need to read up a bit if you want to fix this issue.
Have you tried to boot to recovery?..power on device and press and hold the home button immediately afterwards?

Yes, I booted it to recovery few times in order to make a "wipe" as it was suggested in several threads. It's "CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.6" if that matters.

You mean a data, cache and dalvic cache wipe?
If that didn't work then download the same rom zip and file place it on the root of your sdcard then boot into recovery and install the rom again, (option install zip from sdcard in recovery), doing the full wipe process beforehand.
.
If you have a tmous handset then select "Nand" install when asked during installation.
Otherwise select" DataOnExt" option. (with this option you need to verify that you have a ext4 partition on your sd card).
Simplest way I could put it!
If you go to the first page of the rom thread you will get all the information you require to install the rom.
Setting partition size could be an issue if the above don't work!
Hi,
It was happening to me and i suspect (not sure) this is the Problem with EXT4 wipe with in CMW recovery.
>Create Partition using PC>Don't insert into Before you do Wipe Data and Factory Reset>And then insert SD card>Flash ROM.
>Otherwise you can user TWRP recovery where there is no issues for me with the WIPE ALL.
This is the way i come-out from the issue.
Thank you @shanman-2 and @[email protected]. It was easier than I thought. Everything works perfect now. Many thanks.

[Q]How to Restore Apps from 2nd Partition MMC SGY

alright. i am new here btw. i dont know if someone has already posted this kind of problem on SGY. some were kinda too savvy when i try to relate my problem on other threads.
here it goes:
few months before, i rooted my SGY phone from gingerbread to jelly blast and i successfully did it well. then, i had partitioned my SGY's 8GB MMC. i successfully partitioned my mmc and got extra 1GB for internal memory so that i can install more apps. i had also managed to transfer apps with huge amount of datas to the 2nd partition - to free up space on the real internal memory. everything was perfect until...
i got my phone wet by accident - but not internally and it would not start no matter what. got it repaired by a tech, found out that the power amp was grounded. made some sortings and it was working again.
little did i know that there was a collateral damage - all settings has been reset. i lost my apps, my contacts, messages, and anything saved on the phone. but it's still rooted and runs jelly blast. the problem is that since i made a 2nd partition of my mmc, i cant get them back up again. when i try to go to link2sd>storage info>SD card 2nd Part. and it still shows used 312MB so the apps are possibly in it.
can someone please help me on how to get them back or restored? any advice would be very much appreciated. thanks. :angel:
tried to go on google play but wasn't of help.
I don't think so it is possible to restore from 2nd partition
But I have an idea don't know work or not
go to data folder by using root explorer or anything else
Then search for sd-ext or sd-ext2 and look, there is any apps present or not
If not then open link2sd and clear 2nd partition your memory will be free
press thanks if i help you

Another idea:
Boot a Live Linux from your PC and mount your sd card, then c&p your content to another partition.
Did this on my old Smartphone with 2 Partitions fat32+ext4
Hope that helps

Ey, thanks! I went to my File Explorer>Settings>Root Explorer. I found "data" folder > sdext2 and when i opened it - i saw all the apps i have installed and moved to the 2nd partition! hooray for that!!
i tried to test by clicking on one app, it then opened asking me to use package installer or app system installer. i ran package installer, got warning about installing unknown resources (though the apps came from google play).. so i enabled unknown resources. installed it. :fingers-crossed:
it worked - the app got restored!!! :laugh: is this the right thing to do or was there anything that should be done first? :highfive:
and other questions:
a. link2sd asked me what should be mounted on sd card. i remember from the time i began to partition - i chose ext3. but now on the sd card, when i got the data folder, it shows all my apps on sdext2 folder. which one should i mount? EXT2 or EXT3?
b. due to all this incident, whenever i turn my phone on - it keeps on telling me that the com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. how do i fix this? PS i remember while searching on data folder where i got sdext2, i found another data folder. it shows there com.android.phone but i dont know how to configure this.

[Q] After restore apps keep crashing

Hello,
I have an Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) and last week I thought lets install some ported S5 apps. Well some of them were working but unfortenely most of them weren't. Had alot of crashes and my phone was unusable, so I decided to restore back to the original software.
Before I installed all those S5 apps I made an complete backup using CWM Recovery (Version 6.0.4.7). Now when I the restore completed without errors I constant get errors:
The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped.
Google Play-services has stopped.
Google Partner Setup has stopped.
Those errors return in 1 second after clicking away......
Also after some minutes the phone kinda reboots.. The Samsung Boot Logo shows up but that "reboot" is done after 5-10 seconds. And without any need of entering SIM-Code.
I've tried many options:
Clean install the firmware (works but then i've lost all my data
Advanced restore of sd-ext but then it won't restore anything...... Because when I wipe data/factory reset the following error shows up:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
Formatting /cache...
Formatting /sd-ext...
E: unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
Data wipe complete.​
Tried wipe Dalviks Cache
Tried mounting sd_ext (also mounted any other option just to be sure) and used AROMA FileManager to acces my files but no acces to sd_ext....
If I trie to restore again the following error shows u:
.android_secure.img not found. Skipping restore of sd/card/.android_secure
The issue is that I can get my phone working without errors, but then I've lost ALL my data like photos/videos etc...
A clean install isn't a problem as long I can get my data back, app data like data from games isn't an issue.
Extra info:
OS KitKat 4.4.2 (I9505XXUFNB8_I9505PHNFNB3_PHN)
Rooted with: CF Auto Root jflte
Thanks in advance for your help!
What I would do is to save the data from your internal and external sd that you want to keep.
Then format them both.
So in your case, export your photos and videos to your pc. Format both sd and then try to restore your backup after fully wiping. My guess is that would fix it.

Yeah that's my plan but one problem...
I can't access my internal storage, even not when I try connecting it with USB... It keeps saying installing samsung mobile driver. (usb drivers is already installed, tried it with 4 different computers)
That's strange. Can't you just copy it to your external sd or use something like Airdroid to copy the files over wifi.
Unfortunaly not... My phone while android is loaded is unusable, the errors come back immediatly after clicking away.... I think the problem is that my all my backups are corrupted... I have 3 backup which I am 100% sure of that my phone worked 100% correctly when I made these backups. All of them give the same errors now, and none of them place my files back.
What I don't understand is why your data on your internal sd would be lost when you wipe your device.
Normally wiping in the recovery doesn't touch your internal sd. Why does it in your case? It only wipes your internal sd when you select that option which is hidden in the recovery.
I have the same issue

Do you wipe before restoring?
as already mentioned, copy your important stuff and then do a full wipe including system, data, cache, dalvik, internal and external storage

In 99% of the casus there is no need to wipe internal/external storage. He would probably not have to do it.
