I've been on the NO_BS Verizon ROM for months. Yesterday I flashed to the latest Verizon build and did a factory reset. Now my music apps and gallery will not read from my SD card. I can access the SD card from ES File Explorer, and the SD card shows in settings, so it's not an SD issue. Has anyone run into this issue? If so, what's the fix?
I left out a ton of information when I posted that. I forgot to mention that I made backups before I factory reset, then rooted and restored data with FlashFire before reflashing again with Home_CSC.
The issue was dirty system data. Since I changed the build, it was significant enough of a difference in the system data that it caused some issues, including SD issues, no incoming call notifications, Netflix drops, ect. I'm updating this in case anyone else makes the same mistake I did.

Anyone out there having the same experience as me?
After unlocking and rooting my N1 I now get frequent, if not regular, soft reboots. It seems that it only when reading or writing a lot of data to or from the SD card (e.g. search the SD card for applications, a full data or app backup to the SD card, reading a large playlist off the SD card etc). It seems to be easy to reproduce and certainly didn't happen before unlocking/rooting.
Part way though an operation the screen will go dark and the phone will reboot from the static Nexus logo.
Am using himem. Allocation problems?
Any thoughts?
Wipe , format sd card. Start over with latest stable ROM.
Thanks, I'll try that.
Is this advice offered because it's a known problem or because it's just the default advice for random problems?
Ive never had any random reboots on mine (running cyan latest right now) I did with some roms on my G1, what rom are you using?
Stock...

I recently realized I've been using an old SIM card, and thought I might be on AT&T's EDGE network (instead of the 3G network). My wife's SIM card has a 3G SIM card, so I powered off her Aria and my X10 and put her card in my phone to test it.
The phone booted and I got a yellow ! notification that there was a problem with my Google account. I tried installing an app from Titanium to test the connection. The app wouldn't install.
I powered down and put my SIM card back in and booted. Since then, I cannot install or uninstall any apps from the market or from Astro in Wolfbreak's Cyanogenmod Froyo ROM (v054).
I restored in xrecovery to a few weeks ago, but the problem remains. I even put the SE ROM back on, did a factory reset, and did a fresh install of Wolfbreak's ROM, and it still won't install any app/apk.
I found a post which suggested stopping and wiping the market and its data, didn't fix it. Found a post which suggested deleting some folders from the SD card (LOST.DIR, Android, download and android_something), didn't work.
I CAN install apps fron the stock SE ROM.
Any help is appreciated.

inserting any new sim card to the x10 makes your google account to log off you have to log in over and over again I've done that and worked normally
you have to log in again to your google account.
Tested a different SIM card, now can't install apps or apks [SOLVED]
Thanks for your suggestions. While signing into my Google account didn't fix it, I did figure out the solution!
I had signed in to my Google account again, but I still couldn't install any apps. Also, and I meant to mention this before, all the apps on my SD card were "not installed" anymore.
So, I figured the SD card was the one constant among wiping and reinstalling the ROMs and restoring from backups before the switch. So, I restored my phone to an earlier state, and then DIDN'T boot, but took out the battery. I plugged my SD card into my laptop and deleted all the folders, except those I knew wouldn't have anything to do with the problem (e.g. music, DCIM, TitaniumBackup etc.).
When I plugged it back into my phone and booted, I could (un)install apps again! Of course, all the apps from my SD card were wiped, but God bless TitaniumBackup.
This also explains why the apps on the SD card didn't show up - probably the same bug preventing installation was preventing the phone from being able to use those apps. If anyone knows what SPECIFICALLY I could have deleted, instead of the massive wipe that I did, I'd love to know.
Hopefully this will help anyone who has this problem in the future.
My nook color stays not much longer than 1min after loading all the apps & just after that it reboots. I've tried installing a fresh rom couple of times & wiping each & everything but just after installing all the apps again, it reboots. Have tried both by installing it manually & restoring through titanium backup as well, but same result. It works fine only when I remove my micro sd. I know that some apps doesn't works when installing in micro sd & that's why I've installed all my apps in internal memory. I never faced that issue when I was using Phiremod v6.3 build. Recently after moving into the latest nightly build, this issue occurred. Please tell me how can I resolve this issue? I've been trying to find the solution from so many days but couldn't able to find. Thanks
You could use ROM Manager to restore the last ROM if you did a backup or just reinstall it. I am a little confused about what you mean by loading all the apps. Apps are generally loaded as you use them, not at boot up. When you first boot up you can usually see the SD card icon at the bottom of the screen before it gets mounted. It is possible the card got corrupted. If you don't have anything on it but app backups and it works fine when the card is out you could try reformatting the card on your PC or with a camera that uses micro SDHC cards.
You also might have a misbehaving app loading on startup.
When I first boot the system, the sd card icon shows at the bottom of the screen & disappears after loading all the games from it. After that I can see all my apps & games in app drawer but after a min, it gets reboot. I only have games in sd card, not a single app & neither any app in my internal memory which loads at startup.
Well if the nook boots and runs just fine without the SD-card inserted, then we can be pretty certain that something on the card is messed up. Lot's of possibilities: Corrupted .apk file, partially corrupted file structure on the SD-card itself, Hell it could also be auto-update panicking because it's trying to update an app that has yet to load off the SD-card.
First thing I would try is formatting the SD-card within CM7.
Also try turning off auto-update
If that fails, connect the SD-card to your computer and scan it with windows to check for any file table corruption.
If that fails, it's hard times ahead for you. You'll have to go through the apps one-by-one to see which one is being the little bastard.
Good luck.
Thanx for The help. But all I have on my SD card is just game. Before installing anything on my internal memory, I restored my games backup 1st to my SD card through titanium backup. It was then working absolutely fine. After that I installed apps manually just to see which app is causung error. But all were installed without any problem, used for a while then I manually reboot. Since then I am getting this issue.
Did the update to my S5 from rooted NCG to rooted NI2, everything works great BUT having a major camera issue.
When I take a picture, and immediately review it from within the camera app, it does something to the picture. They show up as a grey screen. When I try to review them in the gallery, they show up as these grey broken thumbnails. I can't send them via MMS. It says "can't send file".
Now, if I take the picture, back out of the camera app, and ONLY review them in the galley app, they are fine. This only happens if i review them with in the camera app.
Now, here's the thing , this only happens when the pictures save to the SDcard. If it saves to the Phone's storage, there's no problems.
Didn't happen on NCG. Does this have something to do with the Secure Storage glitch related to Root and Xposed? I just deleted the secure storage module, and it's still happening. (Don't use S-Health so it didn't matter).
Is there anything I can do. We just had triplets, and we're taking A LOT of pictures, and just realized I've lost half of my pictures. This sucks.
Do I re-install the stock camera app? If I do, where do I find it?
Please help. Having root, isn't worth not being able to use my camera.
Can't format SD Card, SD Card is Write Only?
Since this issue is only happening when the photo's are saving to the SDCard, I attempted to FORMAT the card.
Using the phone to FORMAT, the phone UNmounts the card, says preparing, and REmounts the card exactly as is, without formatting it.
So I tried to reformat it on the computer, three different times, three different programs including the Windows 7 utility, ALL of them gave me the message that my SD Card is WRITE ONLY?
What the heck is that? Did the NI2 update do something to my SD card? Did it corrupt my SD Card?
Any one have any ideas? Guesses? Similar experiences?

Never heard of that one...
Do you have exposed installed? Any other MODs? Install any apps that mess with permissions or SD Card?
If no to any of the above, backup all of your data (sd cards too): wipe the entire phone (including SD Card), ODIN back to an older rootable build, and start over.
Pretty sure it's the SD card.
Spoke to SanDisk, they said that something caused a fault in the card, and as a safety measure, the card will become write protected so your data can't be corrupted.
You can copy the data on the card, but you can't add or delete files. So the camera won't record new pictures to the card.
I tried to delete some sensitive files from the card through the File Explorer, and the phone reboots.
I've been using the phone's on board storage, and no issues thus far.
So everything is pointing to the card.
I have Xposed.
The only modules I have loaded is the Moto X tether, YouTube Ad Away, and the Secure Storage Fake that re-enable S Health.
Could one of these mods have created a fault in the card?

Always possible when using MODs. Secure Storage Fake.. what all does that do? It's also possible the sdcard just failed. Things happen.
The S Health mod that changes your secure storage from True to False.
Fixes the S Health crash, and Private mode failure caused by running Xposed on the S5.
With NCG and NHA, I used to physical make the changes in the system/build.prop, and change ro.securestorage.support from True to False.
On NI2, and just used the Xposed module that does it for you.
That's the only thing I did different.

I believe most ROMs here already have build prop set to false (mine does). As for private mode, I don't use it so I couldn't make any mention on that note.
Have you tried another SD Card yet?
I'm stock, so I have to physically set it.
I have a new sd card on order, so we'll try again with a new one.
I really don't use S Health that much, and never use private mode, so I think I'm going to delete that mod and leave it at true.
Then again, it could just be a bad card. My S4, has had the same card (64 gb Ultra) for almost 2 years, a lot of the same settings, and never had a problem.
Hi everyone,
I have a S5 klte with Samsung SD card formatted as Internal Storage.
Yesterday, I thought I will update my Slim rom 0.6 to the newest version 1.3. After flashing the rom, wiping cache and dalvik cache phone stuck on boot animation. Now, the stupid thing I've done was to push "Fix permissions" in TWRP recovery. After that, I was able to boot my phone, but it lacked most of the apps which were installed previously, none of the google services would work, I could see all the pictures/videos in my gallery, however. When I tried to backup those to my PC, I could see only a small part of it. Tried flashing previous rom, different gaps, wiping cache - nothing.
Then, I thought, I will do a regular wipe, since I didn't cared much about lost apps. From the experience I knew, that wiping does not touch media stored in internal storage. So I wiped my phone and restarted (with old slim 0.6 flashed before).
Now the phone works great, but there is HUGE problem. All internal storage is gone including pictures and videos and Samsung card, which was formatted as internal storage, now says "Unsupported card" and asks me to format it either to external or internal.
What could I do? Is there any way to "re-link" the internal card so that I could see its contents? Or I should use some file recovery software and see what I can get?
Thank you in advance for the help!
Did you try popping out your SD card out of your phone and using an SD card reader to get data off it onto a pc

Well, I am using Mac for the moment, so when I try to connect sd card to it the notification pops up, that drive is not accessible, or something similar.
Tomorrow I will be able to try it on PC, but I believe nothing will change. The biggest problem is that sd card is formatted as internal storage and linked with phone's internal storage. I do not know these inner mechanics, but I believe that I need to somehow recreate that link.
Hmm your probably right good luck trying to fix it

Sadly, there is not much of info due to complexity of this issue. Still waiting for at least some hints what should I do...
UPDATE: PC does not respond to the sd card at all, there is no sound, no drive, nothing.
