I just updated to 2.3.3 (JVH) through Kies, and I couldnt remember me having any lagfix option activated, but the phone got stuck at bootlogo, so i installed fugumod-kernel, and got the phone booting, but it gives some error in CWM saying that it cant open or mount cache/recovery/...
Also under "Mount and Storage", only "System" is mounted, I can mount the others, but after I reboot the phone, they are unmounted again. While in the phone, if I check storage option of the phone and SD-card, it says its 1.81gb free (as if its been a wipe) but I did not do a factory reset by myself, and also if you check under "Manage Applications" you can see all my previously installed applications, but they all have "SD" written in bottom of the pic that shows a SD-card aswell, and they take 0.00B, if i press on any of them for clearing data/move to sd card etc, under "storage" it says "Installed on device(Default)" and only thing that is pressable is "Uninstall".
I also tried to reinstall one of the applications, that I have the actual apk on the phone and it says:
"Replace application
The application you are installing will replace another application.
All previous daa will be saved."
Chosen "Install" and the application installs and is shown as properly in applications, so can be started, but also with "SD" in "Manage Applications"
I do not have any external SD-card so only been using the internal one for spacing atm, and had all my applications installed on phone, and none on internal SD-card.
Anyone know how to get back my applications?
Thanks in advance,

Since about two days ago I'm not able to install any application. Whenever I run the install I get the following message: Installation of [ApplicationName] was unsuccessful.
I've switched the phone off and on and cleared more storage space but I'm still getting them same message.
This happens with every application I try to install, even ones that I've installed successfully previously.
Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?
If you go to the setting - system - remove program, did you see anything listed there. If nothing there, your system db could be corrupt. You will need to restore at least the system db backup portion using your sprite backup. In my case, the active sync corrupt my database when I connect my ppc to my deskyop. I have to uninstall and reinstall active sync.
You're right I'm not seeing anything listed there.
How do I restore the system db backup? Is this something that comes standard with the phone?
I am having exactly the same problem.
I have tried 3 roms (Shaks, Nataly, AZTOR) but almost every cab I try to install either says "Installation was unsuccessful" or first it says "AppX" cannot be installed. To try installing to a different location, choose a location:
I have done hard resets, hard with clear nand (lost all my pictures!), format internal storage, dl'ed new cabs from 3 different browsers on two different connections. copied to the device with "Disk Drive" mode and Activesync.
I do hope someone can help!
Update: I can install the same failed apps if I use the CABviaActivesync util. I think my internal storage may be f***ed.
Update2: I can install the same cabs from / but not from internal storage.
Update3: I tried copying a cab to the internal storage and then move it to / and again it did not install. Copied the same cab to / and it installed ok.
"Application is not installed on your phone" after moving apps to SD on Froyo
hey guys,
first of all i searched the forum but didn't find anything like my problem
(i run Froyo on non-rooted Nexus One)
so, i moved several apps to SD using that ADB command to change default install location from internal memory to SD. everything worked and apps were running smoothly. then my battery went dead during the night and when i switched the phone on in the morning i see icons with green robot for all those apps moved to SD. and if i try running them i get "application is not installed on your phone" error message. thou apps are still on the SD. it seems that my phone erased the part of the data of those apps stored in the internal memory.. which sucks.
anyone faced such a problem so far? i wonder if it's possible to solve without reinstalling all the apps..
many thx in advance.
Cheers.
It happened on my phone too, just removed battery for few minutes.
Looks like a bug.

Forcing the apps to install to SD will break them. In order for applications to be successfully moved to the SD card in Froyo, they must have an appropriate flag set on them from the developer. If the application isn't updated with this flag, it will not work by default from the SD card.
The ADB command should work fine (I think) once all apps are updated, but until then it will just cause problems like what you're seeing.

Not sure, as I'm currently unable to access the market (being deployed will do that). There is a thread on the subject though, which is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=687659

THanks man!!
I set the installation location to SD via ADB and restored my apps via Titanium Backup. Here's what I found.
Apps will occasionly seem to have dissapeared (from App page + download page from the market) seems intermittent and seems to correct itself.
If you mount the SD card via USB then obviously your phone can't access the apps, after unmounting it takes a little time for the system to correct itself (my recommendation is to turn the screen off and on again).
Keep any widget app you are going to use on the phone's storage (i.e. install app, then move it back to phone via the 'applications' menu).
Shortcuts to apps will revert to a generic green/white robot icon, but they will still work (not when the SD card is mounted via usb though obviously).
Basically any application/live wallpapers or anything else that you expect to run live (constantly) should be moved to the phones memory.

This is how I've been using it, also when you reboot the phone, I give it a minute to calculate the applications on the SD card and load them into the phone memory. (Notice if you go to App settings while you can't access the application, they are all there and being "calculated."
Hey,
I just installed a nieuw rom, i made sure i got a TI backup on my sd card.
now if i want to restore my apps it says i have none?
How can i fix this?
Grtzz
Also happened to me i pressed the menu button and pressed preferences in there should be an option called backup location (I'm not sure as mine is not english) then you press detect and it should find all your backups
maybe your new rom use different SD card as /sdcard
if cm9 , you should check on 'settings' ->'storage' -> 'storage configuration' -> 'use internal storage'
Using auto-detect like vcrp94 suggested is way easier.
Hi, I've been using GingerDX v022 (and Alfs v08a kernel) for quite a while and I'm happy with it but one thing bothers me.
Sometimes when installing large apps with low internal phone memory left the system still tries to install the app on the phone leaving me with like 4 MB of internal memory and then I have to manually move the app to sd card using the application manager. I would prefer Android to install apps to sd card by default (while still letting me move them to phone memory when I want).
In CyanogenMod settings I found two options that I find somewhat confusing. One is "Install Location" and it allows me to select sd card, which is exactly what I want but here's what I find confusing... The option "Install Location" is right next to "Allow Application Moving" and even though I have "Allow Application Moving" unticked I can still move apps to sd card. Are these two options related to a different system of moving apps to sd card (e.g. to a separate partition instead of the .android_secure thingy)? Because I still want to use .android_secure and I'm not sure if "Install Location" option might somehow mess it up.
Long story short: Does "Install Location" in CyanogenMod settings work with Gingerbread's built-in moving apps to sd card?
Long story short: Does "Install Location" in CyanogenMod settings work with Gingerbread's built-in moving apps to sd card?[/QUOTE]
Yes it does.. How do you find Install Location confusing? It's sort of self-explanatory, isn't it?
I thought "Install Location" might have been a subsetting of "Allow Application Moving" (and "Allow Application Moving" some completely alternate app2sd method). Now looking at screenshots I see that the English tooltip under "Allow Application Moving" says "Allow moving of any application to external storage" while the Polish translation says something like "Allow moving applications to external storage" and omits the word "any", which kinda changes the meaning.
So I'm guessing "Allow Application Moving" simply bypasses the block that some apps have on being moved to sd card?
Not sure that's the case at all..
It just facilitates being able to use the sdcard as an install media. That's all..
I changed "Install Location" in CyanogenMod settings and it didn't really do anything. Some apps still install in phone memory while others on sd card, like before.
Soo... Does anyone know how to make this option work?

The question to your answer is: Some apps are movable using native apps2sd and some apps are not (that is indicated actually in the info of the app, seen in links2sd, you can see an sdcard icon on the right and says that it is movable, if there is no icon, it is probably recommended that you don't move the app using native apps2sd). If you want to move apps that are not movable using native apps2sd, use links2sd.
No, that's not the case. The apps I'm talking about ARE movable and CAN be moved using the built-in interface but they install in phone memory by default and then have to be moved manually (using the regular Android app manager, not some brute force method). I don't want to force apps that normally cannot be moved to sd to install on sd, I want the movable apps to choose sdcard as the default location.

I don't have such issues with GingerZaraki or FroyoPro..
I set to Automatic..
Okay, then let me rephrase the question. Does anyone KNOW if "Allow application moving" in CyanogenMod settings needs to be turned on for the "Install location" setting to work?
And to clear up any confusion, I didn't mean that all apps install in phone memory, just some. The thing is... the decision isn't up to me and I would prefer it to be my decision.

I know that when Allow Application Moving is turned ON that it works..
Now I tried with both "Allow Application Moving" On and Off, and I installed Ustream app from Android Market for test. The app still took ~9 MB of phone memory instead of installing on SD card as the "Location" selection in CyanogenMod would suggest. Meh...
Any idea of something like a terminal command that could override the default install location?
So, I was using LineAgeOS 14.1 for my Xperia SP but it was awful so I switched to this. All went well but the problem is, I think the internal storage is unmounted (or something).
Play Store keeps crashing(tried cache,data clearing, everything). And it didn't include any filemanager.
So, I tried download an apk through Chrome but it shows "No SD Card" everytime.
What I've tried :
Wiping everything
Re-flash the ROM
Mount option in TWRP, but everytime I check the "Data" box and reboot, it reverts back to unchecked
Note :
I can see Internal Storage on my PC(connected with a USB cable) but I cannot copy anything in it
Can see the presence of Internal Storage in "Storage" menu in Settings too
Also, accessing the Camera says, "Memory write-protected"
same thing happened to me after trying oreo 8.0 , does anyone know the fix?
Finally fixed it , I used Sony Emma Tools latest Version.
Plugged the phone and repaired it using Sony Emma and installed Original Firmware , and now i can install other roms without any internal storage error , although it comes back when i install twrp 3.0.0
Anyone have other solution because EMMA does not support C530x anymore ?
