Tried a new Rom [XT907 Rom][Mod][UnLocked boot] Telstra JB 4.1.2-9.8.2Q-SD Swap, Xposed... from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51063985, but it borked my dialer and contacts app, but it fixed my bluetooth and made radio better...lol it also made my sdcard into internal storage and my internal storage into sdcard...

Describe "borked." What exactly happens when you try to use the apps? Borked doesn't narrow it down at all.

sorry for my inaccurate language...
I got a copy of touch pal which now allows me to dial and store contacts. I think i have almost everything working now except my sdcard is recognised as internal storage and my internal storage is recognised as sdcard.
Not sure how big a problem this is...but trying to run appextractor app to get my old contacts and sms data but that wont run - it says it needs an sdcard to run and then closes, but my sdcard is inserted. I would guess these 2 things are related.
Any help would be very much appreciated...

I believe the ROM you flashed has a SD card swap mod built into it. You'll need to undo the mod or flash another ROM that doesn't have the swap.

Yea it seems your right sorry i know i shuda read all the links before i flashed...thanks for help

The file X cannot be opened.... Not signed.... ARGH!

Hey all,
I've searched through this as much as I could, and found a few things, but nothing that's ident.
My problem occurs even after a clean hard reset, and has only happened since the latest ROM update, so if anyone else has it please can you say if you get this problem... or don't...
Basically, my T-Mobile Pro will work fine for a while, but then I go to it any time after 10 mins of being clammed, and with virtually everything I try to load it comes up with an error dialog saying:
"The file 'X' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of tis components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file."
But this is with EVERYTHING, HTCMesages.exe, HTCCalender.exe, Contacts.exe, TomTom Navigator.exe...... EVERYTHING, ARGH!
The only way to sort it is soft reset, and then everythings okay, for a while anyway... till all of a sudden.....
The only things I've got on apart from the standard T-Mobile ROM is TomTom Navigator 5.21 and PocketBreeze 5. But I'm sure it's nowt to do with either of those...
Please someone, anyone,,, HELP :-/
ARGH! Just after I posted before I hard reset and got it going again.... until now.... :evil: :evil:
1st: Do you use a SD Card? If YES, does the file you try to open in the SD card. Try using a different SD card and see if you still get the same Error Message.
2nd: Do you use WM5torage or Softick's SD Card reader? If YES to either of them, you might have set them on "ACTIVATE" mode then of course you will get the Error message if you try to launch any application on the card while using any of them because you gave the control to your computer to read the card instead. The solution is to keep then on INACTIVE state while using the apps or install them in the Internal Memory rather than the card.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately it's not the SD Card, its core windows mobile applications aswell, like the contacts and messags.
I think it might have been to do with the ROM I was using, I was using T-Mobile's latest (still pretty jurassic though) but switched to the iMate one, and no problems now :-D
Surprised if it is the ROM though, as thought others would have got the error :-/
Here is the solution. I have a Samsung mobile phone and got this error after I installed Samsung's standard multimedia player "Touch Player" into My storage. Then I uninstalled it and re-installed into main storage and it works now.

Apps installed to storage card wont run from start menu

Hi all,
This always happened to me. In winmobile 6 and now 6.5. For some reasons since yesterday apps which installed to my storage card disconnected it's link or short cuts in the start menu. Now all of the apps in my storage card i can't access from start menu. when i clicked the app icon in my start menu my HD2 responded
"Cant open XXX. File is not registered or not trusted in digital signature, or can't find one of the files elements. Please resintall or restore this file."
I have to go to the file directory in my storage card to run the apps. This is very annoying and very inconivence. Anyone knows why? What's worse is that all of the new apps that i installed to my storage card has the same issue... Which means i can't no longer install apps to my storage card...
Help?
Use file explorer to find your chosen program icon /copy it
Still using file explorer go to device/windows/start menu/programs and paste shortcut using left hand bottom menu
Job done ! Rename it if you want !

if you go to file explorer can you read your sd card? I had the same issue and it was the sd card that failed so it could not read/find the program it was looking for. Try for kicks copying over some apps to a different storage card and retry. It will at least eliminate that possibility.
Yes, HD2 can read the SD card, and i have to go to the SD card location to run the apps. Just can not access from the start up menu...

So, install to phone mem instead and problem solved!
Anyone else can help? I think install to the main memory is not a very good idea.

I had the same problem you described. It happened after some old program I launched got the phone stuck and I had to pull the battery out to do a reset.
After the boot completed, I started to receive errors when trying to launch programs from the storage card. Uninstalling wouldn't work and reinstalling always failed.
Replacing the sd card didn't help either.
I believe that something corrupted the registry.
I finally gave up and hard reset.
The only good thing that came out of it was getting a new 16GB sd card for me to use.
My happened when i installed a lockscreen cab to my HD2 to the main memory. After that everything i installed to the storage card wont run from the startup menu.
Really? some dude told me to reformat my storage card. I'd rather do a hard resert cuz i have alot of crap in my 16G storage card.
I haven't gave up yet so i will still try to look for my other options... Thanks to know at least i am not the only one who encounter this fu**ing problem...

Gave up and hard reset a couple of times, and i found out that the reason i can't click the icon in my start menu to access the apps which i installed in my storage card. It was because of i change the local and Text. I changed from Taiwan to USA and HD2 will not let me access the apps from start menu. This is very wierd, but if i change back to Region: Chinese Taiwan, then my HD2 is ok again... Just to share with you guys...

Being a newb SUCKS!

Ok so.. I finally after months flashed my second rom
HAd some trouble, I have to admit..
DC~~
I had trouble and I did some wiping and messing with my SD chip and that was the only way I could functionally get a flash..
I just spent a day and a half setting my phone up to my liking and its become apparent apps2sd isn't working and my SD card only has one 1.5 partition out of 2 gb.
Sorry if there are posts with directions of how to work from this point to keep everything while enabling apps2sd and transfering
I dont know where to start searching.
Thanks guys.
"The noob"
get a app called dconfig, it has an option to move your apps so they're on the card.
other than that im not sure what youre asking.
it might be simpler just to flash your phone, format your card and start from scratch.

do some searching on here, goggle & ppcgeeks for how to root, flash a recovery image, partition your sd card and flash a rom. just make sure the guide you are using and the rom you use is for a cdma based hero.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=90380 heres good guide to get you started.
I'm rooted I might just need to flash the Rom with the SD card.formatted correctly... I'm going to try to re find where the apps are stored and save them... id love to just be able to correct my SD config and set up apps2sd and move em over so I can keep my home screen set up as well as the info supplied in my apps and todo lists..
Thanks for the info ... on the road right now (passenger.seat )
Maybe I'm not a newb, I'm just stupid... I rooted using ubuntu karmic and I had apps2sd working before I moved to damage control
Sent from my HERO200 using Tapatalk
hmm.. Damage control rom comes with Dconfig and it has apps2sd enabled and move apps to sd checked.
Ok heres the thing..
I had a Modaco rom before and with apps2sd enabled and the SD formatted properly.
Plugging my phone into a computer would open up 2 drives... One 1 designated to be 1.5 gb and another .5 gb
How ever now I only see one.. the 1.5 gb
My memory is running low as if everything i've installed is in the phone.
searching through the phone i can't seem to find where these apps are being saved...
Are they on the elusive .5 gb partition I can't seem to see??
i think not... I just rebooted and my available space is 63.74mb
It's all becoming a no brainer that i should reflash the rom with the correct specifications to the SD chip...
But what I want to know, is there a way around this. ( I don't see any options, but I'd love to reformat my SD correctly and get apps2sd working on my own, moving all my apps over there while keeping any stored data intact...) <--- is this possible??
[maybe i should learn how to communicate clearly LOL]
For the moment, Ill back up my SD contents and hunt down how to partition correctly.. then I'll see if I can't find the folders where it is storing downloaded apps... then I'll disable then enable the apps2sd setting in dconfig and download an app... if all goes well i'll start pushing my apps over and do the whol "fix apk uid" in the recovery menu...
Hell maybe ill even decide to get a newer recovery besides 1.2.3 while im at it hahah.. any suggestions would be appreciated

There's only one way to stop being a n00b: Learn.
You're doing fine. My suggestion is to not take it all on at once. Focus on one problem, fix it, learn from it and move on to the next one. You'll be a pro in no time.
I would guess that you need to repartition the SD card when moving from one ROM to the next, but I've never really played with apps2sd. See? You know more about it than I do!
download app: quick systems info
to see if your a2sd is working and how much is being used.
use the dconfig to make sure you have dalvik cached moved to sd... reboot the phone.
i am guessing at this....
you say you had a2sd working before with Madaco and could see 2 drives... that sounds wrong to me. if a2sd was working, then you should not see the 2nd drive. you are only able to see the main larger drive and that is it.. the others are used by android and not available to us.
now that you can not see the 2nd drive. sounds like a2sd is working. the app i suggested should confirm for you.
I did get everything working and my memory remains the same when I install applications.... perhaps I could see the second drive because I'm running Linux and/or the way I formatted the sd or the extension...

I think what you are describing is your SD-EXT partition (the a2sd partition you made). If you have a 2GB card and partitioned your card to be .5GB EXT, then it will appear your SD is 1.5GB. You get what I'm saying?
I used to be able to see 2 partitions as well. I think it was only with 1.5 ROMs.
If you want to mount both partitions then all you need to do is reboot into recovery and select the USB mount. Then both partitions will show up.
But you really don't need to mess with that second partition. Go to the market and download Titanium Backup. That will backup all your apps and settings. Restoring is a little annoying to do since you have to click for every app but if you buy the donate version then you don't have to do that.

[Q] Sorry! The application stopped unexpected.

I recently installed Android on my phone.
And now I am getting an error if I run a application. ( This does not happen with all applications. )
The error I am getting is:
Slice It! ( Game I downloaded from the Android Market. )
-----
Sorry!
The application Slice It!( procescom.com2us.sliceit ) has stopped unexpected.
Try Again.
-----
This also happens with other apps.
I have found a fix for this error and that is to move the app from my SDcard to my phone.
But some apps on my SDcard work so I was wondering is there a fix for this so I can put all apps on my SDcard so that my phone's internal storage does not get full.

Info op my phone:
HTC HD2
Android 2.3.2
MDJ's CyanogenMod 7 (v. 2.6) A2SD+
Is there something I could not explain well or is it something else?
Anyone???
Maybe some apps moved to SD card, look in application settings.
If they did, just move them back to phone ;-P
Please Help!
I just started having issues like this myself. Seems like half my apps give me an error. Doesn't matter if they're on phone or sd. Started after I put in a different sd with a new android rom in it. Ginger _bread. But it would get stuck after some cyanogen mod7 animation would finish followed by an option box asking to click to install by com.android....or some other option. Either way it would just freeze on that screen. So installed my other sd card with darkstone froyo 2.2. First thing it did was asking me to tap on android to get started. Did so and skipped all the other prompts. Then it continued to load all my apps as normal but with the exception that a lot of the apps where giving me pop up errors asking to force close them. Its driving me mucking cuts! Should I reformat my sd and start from scratch? Sorry for the long explanation. Thanks in advance.

The only problem if I do that is that the internal storage of my phone gets full.
And after a while I get messaged like "Internal Storage full".
Is there maybe a way to give the internal storage a bigger capacity?

[Q] LG Optimus L5, recovery and app2sd don't see the external SD

Hello World,
I've got a question concerning the external 8gb sdcard on my phone,
the phone is rooted, has bootloader and cwm 6, the rom is stock btw
My phone can put/place some things to the sd but some don't,
for example,
- Camera saves some of the pics to it,
- My PC sees it when I connect the phone and I can put apps/music etc to it
but,
- I can't use the app2sd built into android assistant (or any other app2sd apps) to move the apps to the sd, they just won't see the sd,
- CWM wont backup to it,
No /sdcard/.android_secure found. Skipping backup of applications on external storage

I've searched the forum, but I can't actually find the right solution for this?
I'm new to all of this, and I want to learn. I've found some advices to similar problems and that the solution is to partition the sd, is that the catch or maybe something else?
Thank you in advance, newbie.
Edit
A new example of not seeing the sd in recovery,
I wanted to flash the "Sony Album" via the Pimp my Rom app, it downloaded the app successfully, it asked for clearing of the dalvik cache, I approved it,
phone rebooted and went into recovery, and then the recovery said that the file doesnt exist (something like that).
Edit
I've tried formatting the sd with fat32, no changes whatsoever :S
