I'm having this major issue with all the 2.3 ROMs no matter what. Some apps just refuse to install when before there was no issue. It's exactly as here. http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...on-usb-storage-or-sd-card-problem-on-android/
I tried searching for the smdl2tmp1.asec file but couldn't find it either on the internal or external sd cards. Plus I am unable to mount the internal card on windows to search for the file.
I deleted /system/etc/init.d/11dalviklocation but that just made it worse. Now all my widgets died. I see a /HWUserData under storage settings now which wasn't there in 2.2 ROMS and I never had this issue in 2.2 ROMs.
Also, at bootup, I always see a notification in the statusbar. SD card safe to remove. And under the /HWUserData storage, I see mount the sd card. It seems the system refuses to mount the sd card or the /HWUserdata additional storage which appears under storage settings.
The only way I can install the hard to install apps is by unmounting my external sd card then installing the app which i guess forces the app to install on the internal sd card.
I installed this mod, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112857&highlight=partition Geno's Custom you data partition's size. Could this be contributing to the problem? Is there a way to search for the file smdl2tmp1.asec file using recovery and deleting it? This issue cropped up after installing an Oxygen ROM and from then on any 2.3 rom I installed has this issue. It's bugging the hell out of me, I'm currently running CM7 and its perfect except for this issue. Help anyone?
First: try to fix permissions from recovery.
Does it mount your SD as SD or your internal sd??? Hwuserdata should correspond to your internal sd. If they are swapped, use root explorer, find fstab file and swap them again

I tried fix permissions in cwm 4.0.1.5 latest. Didn't work. What's the meaning of swapped? "find fstab file and swap them again". How do I do that? Where is the fstab file? closest i found is the vold.fstab file. that it?
I see this in the vold.fstab file.
dev_mount emmc /HWUserData 14/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.4/mmc_host/mmc2
That make any sense? Thanks for the reply! This thing is driving me nuts!
It seems that your sd card is damaged.
I suggest before mess with system stuff, to backup all sdcard content on your pc and format your sdcard. Then insert it back to device and try to see if the problems solved.

I did that before actually. formatted my sd card. Could it be a file on the external sd thats causing it? Since I copied back everything on the sd card after formatting it.
For this reason I said to put it on before recopy anything. Maybe some of android system files/folders on sdcard are damaged.
Damn! It was the SD card after all! What a headache! I copied everything except all the hidden files on the sd card which began with (.) Now everything works fine! Can't believe it. Such a simple thing and so much problems it caused.
So can you please tell me what you exactly did. Cause i don't understand but i have the same problem too. I have no root and i have froyo 2.2.1
EDIT: i made it by connecting to the pc and deleting a file...
Im using newest MIUI rom and i can't see files on my sdcard when i go to file explorer. I tried remove sd card but it didn't help and on recovery i can see files on sd card? Anyone else have same issue?
Make sure you're looking at the external SD card and not the internal storage as that tripped me up a few times

Yes i am looking SDcard NOT internal storage. When i take SD card out i can't see even the internal storage. It says then that Please insert SD card, when i do that i can only see internal storage
Go to x5 settings and change the setting under sd storage. Then do a reboot.

I noticed that the instructions to root/flash .zips call to put the file(s) on an external sd card. Specifically, the instructions for the Odachi Tiamat kernel say to put the file on the "Drop the kernel onto the external SD Card" and gives direction to mount the card in ClockworkMod.
Does anyone know the reason for this? I was able to flash the kernel without using an external SD Card; I just placed the file on my internal storage.
Thanks

For the xoom there is a exception because we can both flash on external and internal but for most Android devices its custom to flash off the external SD

Nah it doest work beause its named sd_external, and all app2sd are searching for Sd_card which is the primary phone sd memory...
Have you partitioned your external sd card and formatted it with fat32 and ext3 or ext4?
