I have the same problem. I think, that there is problem with SD card. If i change SD card, market instal it and everything is OK. I tried format card in phone, in windows, but the same problem. Try move the game to the phone, then install upgrade and then you can move it to SD card.

Yeah, i tried to clear data of the market but it still cant help =[[[
I put some apps back to phone storage and some of them can be upgraded again but still some cant (

Delete the file 'smdl2tmp1.asec'. It can be at 2 places:
1. /sdcard/.android_secure
or
2. /mnt/secure/asec/ (you need to be rooted if you want to delete it from here).
I deleted it from the /mnt/secure/asec folder and everything works fine ever since.
If you can't find this file you can just simply unmount your sdcard from the settings menu, download your app and then remount the sdcard.
I hope this helps.

I dont have this file. I thing, that problem is with SD card. If I try another one, everything is OK.

Hi,
Since two days ago when i installed the Marvel ROM, I have the same problem. Cant see photos, music, etc... But if i go to Root Browser i see the photos on the SD Card.

Check if there is any .nomedia file in the root of sdcard or in your music/picture folders.

try what they said above and if it doesnt works...try defragmenting it using a pc

Hi there!
At the moment , I am in holiday and I'll arrive tomorrow. I will search in my sd for that .nomedia but I have a question...will sd defragmentation from phone work ? And how to do the defragmentation via pc? What programs should I use.
Thank you for your assistance. You are such a good community. Good night to every one!!

i had the same problem. i´ve tried three diffrent roms but the problem was still there. but i´ve solved it like that:
- update rom manger
- reinstall clockworkmod, so the newest version is installed
- install any rom (i am using boypes cm 7) with wiping data/cache/dalvik cache
and voila, my p970 recognized all my media files^^
sorry for my bad english

Thank you Celo385!

Remove /mnt/sdcard/.nomedia
Because it is in the root of sdcard it hides everything.

I deleted the file, rebooted but i cant see the files in the gallery. And the file was created again.
Note: When i installed the Marvel ROM i dont formatted the SD Card. May be that?

I had same problem, I tried unmounting the sd card and then mounting again, worked.

owh,..
thank bro for your advice,..:good:

Also be careful getting fake, imitation sd cards out there, it would cause you instability problems like those gallery messing up, occassionaly read write errors when rom flashing or install apps on sd, and sometimes you already deleted this photo/video and will show up later on, getting duplicate copies on thumbnail galleries but actually its the same, so when you delete one, you delete both. You really cant tell the difference from fake to original, most of the time its logo easily fades. Also get those made in japan, korea or taiwan, not those made in china.

[Q] Internal Memory

Hello.
My girlfriend's s5830i is always givin her the low memory storage error.
She has got Mindcr ROM, rooted, with apptoSD, and every app in the SD.
She hasnt got many apps, only over 10 (installed by herself). I have moved all contacts to her google acount, and I have deleted all SMS.
Can I made a partition in the SD for get more internal memory or something like that? I have heard that with ROM Manager app I will break the phone.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks you.

Go into the cwm recovery then go to advanced. Adter that select parition sdcard. Then select the size and wait until it's ready. Then search in the development section for cronmod script and install it through cwm. It will move everything of your apps directly in the sdcard so you have just 1 - 10 mb use in internal memory.

Thanks you but, this will make the phone believe that it has got for exemple 1gb ROM memory? I mean, I will install app without worry about internal space after do this?
Is there any post about install/use cwm recovery in s5830i?

Sorry, she has got Link2SD and every possible app in the SD card,I would like to improve the internal memory for put in the phone apps without limits of space...
Maybe some partition that makes the phone believe that it has got more rom or whatever. What do you have? When you install an app in the SD it takes some internal memory too...

I have 53 apps installed and still 59MB internal memory free.
When using Link2SD choose the option 'create link' instead of 'move to sd card'
The advantages of 'create link' are explained in detail on

OK thanks you, tomorrow I will use the link2SD option and, if it doesnt works, I will use the partition one.
If I use the second one I will need more info guys...

Keep in mind that Link2SD requires a separate partition to be able to use the option 'create link'

[CWM][Script]Storage Swap for 4.2 ROMs

I modified the original script to work for our mount, and then put it in a flashable to flash after flashing a ROM to have storage swapped right away after booting. No need to manually move the script to /system/etc/init.d any more.
Let me know if there's any issues.
Thanks to original script author and others who figured out what mounts are which.
DOWNLOAD
Script info:
extsd2internalsd is a modification that allows to switch internal sd to external sd and viceversa. With this you can use default internal sd only for app storage and the external sd to store all apps resource and all others stuff. The result is a very big increase of installable apps on your device.
All credits to Mattiadj of xda forum for the idea and script and to mike1986 for the cmw zip.
Script Modified for U.S. Galaxy S3s by Zedomax at GalaxyS3Root.com to be compatible when sdcard is not inserted.

This is ONLY for 4.2 custom ROMs with unlocked boot loaders of course. Not tested with stock 4.1 or CM10 (4.1) You are welcome to try it though and let me know the results.

Do i flash it right after the gapps if i am i stalling aokp?

Strange, after loading the zip and went to the storage menu i see the same for internal memory and there is no external sdcard now.

I lost all of my game data. I have TB but I can seem to get it to stick with root explore. I'll format both sdcard and the external , reinstal the zip and hope that I can get it back.

If you formated both sdcards you pretty much deleted everything you had there mate.

I can't get 4.2 to read the storage in settings correctly. I put a specially named folder on my external SD card and when it shows up as internal I know it works. You won't be able to see the external SD anymore which is now technically the internal.

Formatting SD cards won't make any difference here. All were doing is telling the system one is the other.

I have my game data on my computer, I can't seem to make it stick so I can restore my games to where I was last playing.
I haven't formated anything. After I flashed the zip my data went away, but on the other hand I can see the data folders in root explorer.
Sent from my MB886 using xda premium

To undo just delete the script in /system/etc/init.d
This isn't doing anything obtrusive guys its just placing the script for you is all.
Its recommended you do this after a clean install of whatever ROM you run.
As for the game save data I will swap the storage and then OPEN each game to make it create the corresponding folders and then restore

Does it work on 4.1.2 Mexico Retail debloated?
What if i have apps installed and my mmry card is also filled?

Seeing as how it says 4.2 roms only what do you think man? You can try it to see if it works though. You really want to do it on a fresh rom install.
