I have a problem, I'll explain everything I did in details as better as I can and I please someone for help. (I'm actually new here)
My phone is Samsung Galaxy Mini S5570I. I had official 2.3.6 Gingerbread.
Two days ago I rooted my phone, and installed ClockworkMode. I have downloaded CM9 first (it didn't work, it said 'error') and CM10 and Google Apps file later because I wanted to update my phone to 4.0 or 4.1 version (I tried both, it didn't work), and I did everything the way it was explained, wiped data and all, just it didn't want to install CM. So I went to sd card on my phone, and I wanted to delete those files, so I mistakenly deleted some other file, its name was something like 'DiskCache (something like that and then some numbers). I have too more files like that one: 'DiskCacheIndex1670764618.tmp' and 'DiskCacheIndex-2046711179.tmp'. What are those files?
Then I downloaded JellyBlast V3 for S5570I from this site and went to CWM and then I couldn't wipe data and dalvik cache, it said 'error in (something) but I flashed/installed JellyBlast anyway, it was succesful, but when starting it was stuck on boot, logo was starting over and over again for a half an hour. So I took the battery out and put it back, and went to CWM and tried to reflash JellyBlast, but I got the same result.
Later, I succesfully flashed 2.3.6v of Gingerbread with Odin. (found it here)
Now the problem is in my internal memory. I have only 21mb free space of 190 total, and apps I have on my phone are: FB app, one game (45mb), Google Play app, and Service for Google Play app. But before I tried to install that JellyBlast I had 60mb free space and more games/apps installed. And that's very weird to me, how is that possible? Because all of my songs and pictures are on sd card. I was thinking, maybe something wrong happened because I deleted that one cache file by mistake, but it shouldn't be I think, am I right?
Can someone help me? I'm scared now to flash again, and I don't want to have my phone bricked. I would really appreciate some help.
Thanks in advance!
Didnt hear anything about diskcache named file before
Try wiping data from stock recovery

Hi all experts.
I have an SGS with a problem.
It FC a lot of programs (maps, market, swype etc.) and it wont delete apps.
Tried flash 127 times at least but no luck.
Tried 2.2.1, 2.3.3, 2.3.6 no go.
Can´t write to int.sd so all have do be done trough Odin.
Formated all I could with speedmod, but a lot of the old crap just wont go away!
It´s sems there is an area in the mem that I can´t acces even if I´m root.
Any help? Or is it off to the store for a new phone.
Tex
The only thing that I can suggest is to do a full factory reset, reflash with the correct official firmware for your region, then factory reset again.
Even if you decide to return your phone you will need to restore it to your current official firmware.
Been there, done that No go
No warrinty left, so it´s a new phone.
Have you formatted your internal sd card?
Also perhaps flash through Odin using a stock rom & pit 512 & repartition checked
Sad to say: Been there, done that, no go
When connected to PC, I can se the files in explorer (phone and PC)
But if I try to put a file from PC to the phone, the next time I check the explorer on the phone, it says no int. SD card.
last thing to try would be to format internal sd from your pc.
try copying everything on it onto your pc first & then format.
otherwise hopefully someone else has some help for you.
*2767*3855# try this formatting method also via dialer...
Sad to say again: Been there, done that, no go
It says its formating and wiping, but after reboot it´s the same
So I guess it´s goodbuy SGS and hello SGS 2 (maybe)
Thanks for all answers and help.
it's likely that the internal SD-card got corrupted.
Just flash a stock rom from ODIN not cwm or use one of @ramad rom's (only to be flashed in PDA) or darky's rom or ezbase from insanity thread.
i installed the NAA kernal and CM9, and all going great, i did however realise that i needed to install gaaps, so i placed on card, rebooted into recovery and installed, all going good, and then after bootup where you tap the android man to continue. this is what i get 'UNFORTUNATELY THE SETUP WIZARD HAS STOPPED'..
I cannot bypass this. ive tried installing two different gapps on it, and both times this..
any help would be appreciated

Hello guys!
I'm new to the forum, and a total noob when it comes to android. I have a VERY similar problemToday I installed the latest version of CM. Worked fine. I installed gapps. Now when I turn on the device, it just shoes the message and I can't do anything. I wanted to try reflashing a newer version of gapps, but I can't put it on my sd card, because my computer won't detect it anymore...I can't use my phone at all, I am starting to panic :/

What Do you mean by "keeps restarting" Bro, Is it stuck on the bootanimation?
If your phone doesn't get pass boot animation and reboots, then there's only one way to fix it. Your personal files and data would be gone but I'm sure it's backed up with your google account. Watch this and follow the instructions. Installing a stock firmware using ODIN. Hope it helped

Are you currently using a stock rom or a custom rom? Anyway you can solve this problem by just flashing back the stock rom using odin. Here is the link on how to install stock rom using odin along with all firmwares and drivers (check the "Preparations" section),
Flash stock rom on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 using odin
If your PC cannot recognize the phone, its usually the drivers. Once installed, go to recovery mode (hold power+ Home button) and do a wipe data/ factory reset & wipe cache (otherwise bootloop might occur). Then restart. Now you have successfully flashed the stock rom. Here is the link for rooting and installing CWM 5 on Samsung Galaxy Ace. Just flash them from the recovery mode (choose "install zip from sdcard" and then select the zip file from sdcard).

The Apocalypse you are referring to is the custom rom that is installed in your phone. When you bought you phone, you had Samsung's version of Froyo/ Gingerbread installed in your phone. That rom is called stock rom. Custom roms are build by developers using cyanogen mod sources. Now you keep having restarts and since clearing data and cache from CWM didn't solve it, I suggest you install another rom. Now this is where you have to make a choice. You can either install a stock rom (stable, nice battery backup, etc) or a custom rom (fast, performance oriented, customizable, etc). Before you do install another rom, backup all app data using Titanium Backup. If you choose Stock rom, then follow my previous post on how to install stock rom on your phone. Now if you choose custom rom, then first we need to update CWM 4 to CWM 5.
CWM 5.0.2.6 fix for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830
Download the CWM 5 zip file to SD Card and reboot your phone to recovery mode (Power off then hold Home+ Power button). Now choose "Install zip from SD Card" and choose the zip file. Done! You have successfully installed CWM 5. Now time for you to install a new custom rom. Refer the following guide for all the custom roms for our device,
Know your Device:Galaxy Ace GT-S5830 ~Root~Odin~CWM~ROM LIST
For time being use any Gingerbread roms. Download it to SD Card and then reboot to recovery mode. Now choose Wipe data/ factory reset, Wipe cache partitions, Advanced> Wipe dalvik cache, Wipe battery stats, Mounts & Storage> Format /system. Now select "Install zip from SD Card" and choose your rom zip file. Reboot and you can use your new rom. Whenever you want to install any new custom rom, just follow the same procedure. Now as for the low internal memory problem, we might have a solution. But the catch is it requires a rom with init.d support (something all custom roms have and stock roms doesn't ) and an ext partition on SD Card. First backup all the SD Card data. Now go to CWM> Advanced> Partition SD Card> Size (Max 1GB, anymore and system will lag)> Swap (0MB) and wait for it to say "Partitioning done". Now download and place CronMod script (try INT2EXT+ as it is the most stable of all) to SD Card. Now again go to CWM> Mounts & Storage> Mount /system then flash the Cronmod zip from CWM. Reboot and you are good to go. Now go to Settings>Storage to see the newly increased internal memory. Here is the link,
CronMod-INT2EXT
Hope I Helped
Wrong section mates!!
First of all, read the forum rules in order to post your questions correctly...
There's a great Q&A Thread please use it to ask for help, this the General Thread, we must all contribute to maintaining our forum in order.
Next time, post it in the correct section, thank you for understanding it
Follow @mahithm instructions to flash a fresh STOCK rom and the next tine DON'T USE CWM 4x, it's outdated, there are several recovery systems based on CWM 5x, they're the most stable for a daily usage and they're required to flash most of the custom roms
Hi ive posted about my n7000 before but didnt get much help.
I want to know am i stuck using gingerbread?
everytime i use anyother firmware/custom rom , my phone eventually freezes and causes random reboots.
doesnt matter if its stock, CM, MIUI, or anything. anything thats not gingerbread it eventually freezes on.
can someone please help me? i wanna run jellybean
On Sep 20th you wrote about "yeah the jellybean stock flashed successfully, the ics didnt. it failed during the FSFactory."
You bricked your device. After that you played with pit files (so obviously trying the workaround).
If you want to solve your problem replace your mainboard. Or be happy that GB still works.
Why does freeze/reboot. Is this a hardware situation or software, because if gb works... that sill doesnt explain anything.
i know it doesnt explain it, thats more so why im confused.
heres my step by step for all 3 firmwares gb/ics/& jb:
For Gingerbread:
i load a custom 16GB pit file in odin along with the 3 part stock gingerbread firmware
flash it, works perfectly no matter what i do afterwards
ICS/JB:
ive tried this 3 ways
1. i load the ics/jb firmware in odin
- flash it
allow for boot..
this works fine until i put in my information as far as my google account and when i go into the play store to download my past apps then it freezes and reboots.
2.i load the ics/jb firmware in odin again this time using a pit file (ive tried multiple pit files
- flash them both
-allowed for boot
same thing happens when i go into the play store to download my past apps then it freezes and reboots.
3. i tried 1 & 2 again but i boot into recovery mode and factory reset
after it boots it still does the same thing.
even on custom roms it happens the same.

As far i can guess, the os installs corectly, but the data not? Well... these partitions are separated from each other. Like if we'd imagine windows on partition c, and program files goes on d:.
But that is not a reason why would gb install and work while jelly bean not (stock/cm).
Freeze when istalling apps only shows that the emmc is there active on those bytes? but on gb aint?
The pit files, as far as i remember, and did use them 1ooo times, allows for repartition entirely, not just where os installs.
Im currently on jb 4.2. I had all the versions, except cm gb. I had those issues, but to me was a hardware like thing. i can install apps but once in a full moon the whole os freezes still(1 frame, and only force reset from power button works). The only way i can install apps safely is by having a partition on exsdcard, link2sd does that, next use symbolic link with rootexplorer and move about 4 folders to sdext2 (root/data/sdext2).
First figure out if you can to see if data partition is alright (use root explorer). is your root/data/app folder empty? does freeze when checking maiils? or if you clear dalvik cache from cwm?
