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.
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
Hi Guys,

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.

it worked in the end by wiping everything!
Same Issue
I'm having exactly the same issue. I've tried wiping everything and it still doesn't seem to work. Could you please tell me how you exactly got this to work? Thanks
Can someone tell me what's going on? I have plenty of system space and SD space but everytime I try to update any app, I get insufficient storage available. I've cleaned the cache and deleted many apps but still this remains. I even cleared Google Play Store and the data.
Never had this happen before where I couldn't fix it.
Note, this happens when I try to update or install an app from Google Play or if I try to sideload any app
Did you force "install app to sdcard directly"?
"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ? "
Install SdMaid Pro app from Play Store.. Then clean your system.
P.s. YOU NEED ROOT ACCESS
I didn't force install or side load. I have root and my system is clean. I cleared almost all caches and cleared data and cache from play store. I even cleared the dalvik cache.

Take a look if the apps are in APPLICATION MANAGER -> SD CARD and are moved to the SD CARD.
SOLUTION
1) You can make a test. Take out the SD CARD and try to update one of that apps. Go to point 2 if works and you don't get any message.
2) I had same problem. My solution was change the SD CARD coz was faulty. Good luck :highfive:

Hi
i already had this problem on my old s2 because i patched the apps with lucky patcher to remove the adds.
Lucky patcher install an odex file in the system, and this causes the problem.
If you can unpatch the apps you want to update via lucky patcher, do it. (Or maybe remove manually the odex file via an explorer)
As i didn't need to keep the datas for the apps, my solution was to uninstall the apps i wanted to update, launch lucky patcher so that it removes automatically the odex file, and reinstall the app via google play ...
Marshmallow had a new cool feature of adopted storage but all the flashoholics had trouble in changing roms because they have to format sd card every time they change roms .
I have a solution.
1:- while flashing rom wipe system dalvik cache and cache but dont wipe data .
2:- flash the rom and let it optimize apps .
3:- after optimizations most probably you will be in bootloop , simply boot into recovery and wipe data and reboot.
4:- your phone will optimize apps again and this time it will boot up and you can access sd card as adopted storage without need to format it again as internal.
This trick worked for me and should work for you guys too.
There's another method that is :-
1:- navigate to root folder
2:- copy all the files from data/misc/vold to somewhere in SD card
3:now boot to recovery wipe everything except SD card and flash new ROM .
4:- now using twrp's file manager move the files you from step 2 to the same folder I.e. data/misc/vold
5:-reboot
According to twrp dev, you can use this trick ' Note, if you factory reset and leave the key present in /data/misc/vold, then Android will still detect and use the adopted storage on the next boot.'

Dirty Flashing....and adopted sd card
If I dirty flash a rom by just clearing the cache and dalvik cache, will the old adopted sd card setting work or will I have to follow your procedure even then also?

Yup but most probably you will get boot loop if you have installed significant number of apps....so clean flash is advised......and use the trick mentioned

does this sound familiar?
i had 39 apps installed so you can say i have lots of apps
but this never happened to me before i flashed 13th april nightly...
ultimately i had to wipe everything, do a clean flash and use this method to save the sdcard

I don't know the exact reason but as long as you have only 10-15 apps you won't get bootloop .....I always get bootloop while dirty flashing updates

Sorry for bringing up this old thread again, but I've an issue where I had to hard reset in order to get root on my Moto X Pure. I didn't think about whether or not I should make any backups of my sd or nand.
I thought I could just continue using the sd as adopted storage on my new ROM.
Anyways, when doing this trick do I leave the sd card inside?

well it works. you can also switch from cm13 to cm14.1, but the option migrate data, to migrate from internal to adopted is missing afterwards

Just copy it to your SD card using file manager. Then when you flash ROM, go into twrp file manager and copy-paste it back to vold folder.
However, if you are on a nougat ROM then you don't need this entire trick at all! Just flash ROM without this trick. The .key will take care of itself automatically without any problem.

Well, in TWRP file manager, don't you see the option 'sdcard' ? Go to TWRP > Advanced > file manager > sdcard.
I'm also using SD as internal and flashing ROMs and stuff without using this trick (on nougat).

https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-mega/development/rom-aicp-11-0-mm-6-0-1-t3457130
i DID use the TWRP File Manager but i don't remember exploring that particular 'sdcard' folder . but do tell me , what did you see in your 'sdcard' folder in file manager ?
im using a s7 edge exynos , rooted it with cf auto root using odin and herolte2 , then added TWRP through odin (AP) , when i start TWRP it shows internal memory as 0 , (nothing is formatted , my phone has all its data im happy for that ) but i cant install xposed as it shows internal memory 0 so i cant find any of the zip files.
any help appreciated

Did you enable "OEM unlock" in Developer Options before rooting as advertised?
Flash twrp and wipe all without SD. Reboot recovery.

First out of all. You posted it in the exactly same place.
Second. Here is my answer from You other thread:
Does it say something like crypto footer or data invalid size or something like that? If it does then You have to format data, not wipe. Or else it won't work.

No says nothing , just internal memory 0 all folders subfolders are empty , but when I boot normally all files are there ( by formatting I'll loose all data?) What's the difference in wipe and format dont they both delete all data?

Format will work. You will lose all your stuff so backup whats important. The difference is what you checkmark in wipe. You gotto lose all data for TWRP to work.

Wiping data only wipes data partition.
Formating data removes every single file in internal storage and all files in data partition.
You have to format data in order to get twrp to work.
