not able to restore backup using kies - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys. I have a Ace S5830 in CWM 5.0.2.6 and just flashed Maclaw's CM 9 RC3. Now i'm trying to restore my backup to the SD card. I connected the USB and opened kies but it's not recognising my device. Then i went to the removable disk and it says please insert a disk into F:/
So how can i restore my backup to the SD card?? thank you

Go into recovery, click mounts and storage, and then plug into computer. Then, mount usb mass storage and device should be recognised. also, make sure you have the correct drivers for your Samsung.

But is there no other way to do it? I mean i've used kies for backup and restore until i used this ROM. So because of this ROM kies isn't recognising my device?

Ac. to my knowledge ur phone is rooted n the warranty is expired so Kies wont recognize ur cell.
hit thanks if helped

Chuck that Kies !
Dude ! Kies has always sucked !
Why don't you just forget that !
and the reason for kies not detecting you device might be because your device is rooted.I'm not sure about that !
But you can go to CWM recovery ....then mounts and storage and select "MOUNT SD CARD"
Then select "MOUNT USB STORAGE" and connect it to ur pc and transfer what ever you want.
That's the Quickest way ! :good:

Also, next time, try to back up with the app called titanium backup as it is universal for all phones and highly recommend.

Hey i did all that and i found that i already had the files on my SD card. I'm able to access music and photos but not apps! And my contacts are gone. very confused
I did what u guys said and i copied the files in my backup to the F:/ and it started copying and while it was copying fruit ninja.asec from .android secure and then it hangs. Then when to access F:/ it says there is an I/O device error. So i tried again and same thing...Any suggestions?

kise sucks, the only purpose of kies is for our phones to be detected, we needed the divers of kies..haha never to use it as to back up..CWM is the best when backing up sytem and image

If your contacts were saved onto your Google account, they should sync automatically when you sign in. If not, you have to have backed up the contacts by exporting them to either the sim or sdcard. If you did not do that, then you cannot get them back. Also, im not sure about the app sync problem, but if you go to play store and sign in with the same account as before, you can go to my apps and redownload them from there. Hope i helped

Ohhh. Ok i lost all my contacts forever then I signed into my google accounts and apps aren't there in "my apps" but they're there in "all apps".
But before flashing the ROM( that i currently have) i backed up all the data to the PC! I checked on my SD card and found that all the data was there but the apps weren't there on the phone! So then i recopied the backup (on my PC) to the SD card but then i had tat problem i mentioned above.
Well i had 2.3.6. stock before i rooted and got maclaw's ICS ROM and i partitioned 256M of my SD card using CWM. Does that affect anything?
Thx a lot! Sorry i'm very new to all this

I guess you din't get it right ! Read the below carefully now and hit the THANKS button if you understood and if it was helpful
See since you din't sync your contacts to Google Account or moved it to the SIM card it's gone forever ! Nothing can be done !
It was useless backing up with kies ...so next time just don't open that idiotic software !
You should have backed up using CWM Recovery ! But never mind ..you are new to this
You are able to access you photos,songs and other stuff because they are stored on your SD card and by rooting or flashing a ROM ..nothing happens to your SD card !
After flashing a ROM ..your apps wont remain there ...because you factory reset your phone before flashing a ROM !
But still your app data will remain in SD card ...meaning ...Suppose before flashing a ROM u used to play a game on ur STOCK firmware and u had completed 5 levels of that game and that gets saved on your SD card ..now if you install that same Game on ICS AOSP ROM now ..you will find those 5 levels completed
So you need to download your apps again from Google play ! and partitions dont cause any problem
Wohaa !! That was the Longest ..I Have typed on XDA ;p

No it shouldn't affect anything, but just to clarify, what version of clockwork do you have? Also, were you able to reinstall the app from play store?

Yeah i know that i erased my SD card data. I downloaded the apps again but the app data isn't the same as when it was on stock.(for example i had fruit ninja where i unlocked everything but now it's all lost and same with other apps also) So maybe something is wrong?

CWM 5.0.2.6 and yes i downloaded everything again .

Strange ! I have my SD card as it is since I bought it ...I have never formatted it ..but still I keep changing ROM's and the app data always remains !

Sorry i keep asking q's. But is there no solution to this? I'm not able to even transfer my previous backup data(before installing the ROM) to the phone as it says I/O error...So i'll have this problem each time i flash a new ROM?

First of all ..I don't get it ..why you need that back up ?
No ! No ! Nothing like that ..you won't have these problems all the time !
BTW..which ROM are you using now ?

That backup has the saved data such as level progress and all in my apps. I'm using the same one ICS RC4 by Maclaw.

See to restore your backed up data ..you don't have to move those backed up files to ur SD card that won't do the job.
Since you have backed up using kies you will have to restore through that software only !

[Q] For root enabled owners

HI Friends, i have a doubt in my mind.
Suppose i have already rooted my device and clockwork mode recovery is there.
Since i tried a lot of ROMs , my SD card is full of unnecessary files.
I want to format my SD card within phone setting.
After Formatting the SD card my clockwork mode recovery still be there and my device will be still in rooted.(This is what i want)
Please let me know.
Yes if you wipe your SD you will still be rooted with custom recovery. Same as if you take out your SD card, you are still rooted

Sure as said these things are in your ROM not on the SD card. Ever tryed to connect your phone to PC or maybe better take your SD card out and connect it to the PC directly to backup things first before reformating? I always store my nandroid backups and more there and than delete the oldest ones.

Yes, you will be rooted but ROM backups will be removed, if there is any.
Thanks to you guys for your quick response. Really this forum rocks...
Currently , i am using zeus 6.39, Now i am going to format and flash zeus 7.1 ROM.
I just updated to Zeus 6.4 on friday and will probably try 7.01 in a few days.
Zeus 7.01 is very nice and fluid but only thing I don't like is the dark color in messaging.

[Q] htc salsa root not woking

i restarted my rooted htc salsa and the phone showed a low internal memory warning. I restated it again and it still showed the same warning and also, my superuser , link2sd , titanium backup , play store icons are not there. What do I do?
You need to elaborate more. You rooted your device and restarted it and got a low memory warning xcan mean anything. What rom is it? I assume stock. How did you root it? What else have you done ie have you done a recovery. Unlocked it etc. Post up Everything up you Have done in what order you did it.
I can help you far more with this info.

Thanks for the reply. I am a complete noob , so bear with me . I unlocked bootloader through the info provided at htcdev.com and then followed the tutorial on xda on how to root with s-on. I am using the stock rom and have installed CWM recovery. I have around 60 applications installed and whenever I reboot , my phone takes a lot of time to 'show' all the applications . but, today ,when I rebooted , my phone stopped showing play store, superuser,link2sd etc icons and also showed that the memory is too low ,even though I have linked all the apps to sd . Why is this happening?

ok im assuming you haven't made and ext3 partition on your sd card.
have you linked the apps via link2sd? if so which ones. sounds to me like the whole lots just crashed. have you backed anything up? im assuming you may have by using titanium backup.
if Google play and superuser have gone then its a system fault unless you moved them to the sd card in which case your sd card has gone corrupt. what internal setup are you using.
internal memory, what is it and how have or are you using it and what with.
sd card setup. similar to previous question but if using it with link2sd, how?

Yes I'd linked the apps via link2sd. all the user apps and some of the system apps , including PlayStore . Yes , I backed up using Titanium Backup :silly:
And I partitioned my card using CWM recovery v5.0.2.6 .. I don't know what ext it has made.
And I don't understand what you mean by internal setup and the last two points. Please bear with me , I'm a complete beginner .

lol you moved a system app to the sd card. your sd card has failed and removed the apps you moved across. recovery won't make and ext partition, you have to.
biggest no no is moving system apps to the sd or linking them.
example of my setup.
i use a mixture of different roms to suit my needs. currently CM7/my own depending on what im doing.
my sd card has a ext3 partition of 1gb on there. when we flash our roms we use various data2sd scripts, most work across the roms range some don't. this creates a stable non movable area without the need to link the apps to the sd thus creating a 1.15gb internal memory area.y
also means no moving of apps required as the internal memory is so large now.
what you have done is a common error, i did it when i first started on the salsa so don't be disheartened lol.
you can do a few things to correct this error.
backup you data and reset the rom in recovery mode, this will only clear the things that have been done now inc majority of root. you can try and reflash the root file giving back superuser again. not 100% this will work mind.
to get playstore back you can flash a package called gapps. listed in this area, check android development or use search.
most users now flash another rom, these always include superuser and most root applications required and have the ability to give increased internal memory.
check out these threads, these will give the basics to what you require.
ext3 partitions >http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565898

just remember, never move a system app or link it to the sd card!
Thanks man ! I reset my phone and will start afresh ...

[Q] How to Delete Custom rom.

So I got A custom rom :RocketRom JB v1
Witch is causing some problems on my phone for example:
1) Cant Delete stuff from phone , any kind of files.
2) Usb and internal space has enough space more than 11G total , don't have SD card.
3) I can download app from Google play but below 35MB those who don't need Wi-Fi Download but cant download other stuff , it ses error 492.
4) Cant download from any other source : Web , Aptoide ,GetApk or any other , Keep saying that I don't have space on my phone or USB drive and what not.
5) I followed guides on how to fix error 492, or how to fix the space problem , Deleting caches or stopping Google apps from running and recovery mode , Didn't work.
So I want a way to delete to original factory state without the rom , and unrooted and what not ,and then to root the phone , and to put a different rom witch has JB similar to RocketRom.
Sorry for being a bit noob, just don't understand yet the process and don't know that guides to look at.
Tnks for the help ^-^
you dont need to go to the extremes of removing root, flashing stock firmware and starting from the beggining.
All you need to do is:
Download RRv3 - Its newer, More bug fixes, More stable, More features.
Place in on SD card
Make a backup of all apps & app data (use titanium or similar)
Boot into recovery
Wipe cache & Dalvik cache & Data / factory reset
Go to mount & storage & format /system (essential)
Install zip from sd card
choose zip from sd card
Flash RRv3
enjoy
Only one problem I cant put it on USB for some reason , I cant put any thing , thats why I want to reroot to see if its fixable.
Have you tried connecting usb in recovery ? Go to mounts & storage and select mount usb storage.
I had a similar issue with v1 and i could only transfer files from recovery
Oki I managed to get to Installing the new rom , but what is Flash RRv3 ?
RocketROM version 3, Its the same as what you've got installed now but newer and better..... Much much better
Still got the 492 error on Google play , and downloading from other source still unavailable .

What usb files are you talking about ? Files on the SD card ? A factory reset wont remove anything from the sd card(s) only apps and data, You will need to manually delete them or format the sd card.
Are you having issues connecting to your computer via usb still ? Have you got a spare lead you could try ?
I dont have a sd card , i got the internal storage of 10g . And yes i still got that problem , and the other problems, cant delete any thing or download

What i want to try is really reset the phone to how i got it ,if i still got the problems it means its hardware problem.

So what you need to do is change the read permissions of the card, i have no idea why they would have been changed. Use a file manager to change them
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
The thing is i dont really care about the files , I just wanna know why i cant download new stuff from any where except google play and the only things I can download are low MB apps , higher apps gets me error 492 and ,from web keeps saying unsucefull download.
Maybe if the whole SD card went into only read mode and needs permission change.
Do you have any suggestions on a what program I should use ?

[Q] Cannot Delete Apps or Google User Account even after flashing ROM

Hey everyone,
My friend gave me his tab p1000... but I cannot seem to remove apps or even google user account even after i have:
- Reset the phone
- Flashed stock rom v5 ROM with ODIN (with repartition and also flashed dbdata).
- I also tried NAND Erase All, which soft bricked the tab but i was able to get it back.
Even with all this, all the apps are still there.. when the tab loads up.
The Apps keep crashing every minute though.. so they are not stable.
--- Things Note:
1.
After flashing stock rom, when it enters recovery i get the following errors:
part(1): Checksum error
MMC verification failed
and
cannot find: /preload/app folder
2.
There are some weird files under the internal memory root folder that cannot be deleted.
Well you can delete them but they come right back up when you remount the internal drive(16gb).
Also the application folders cannot be deleted.. they reappear once you remount the internal drive.
the files are:
- Copy of Shortcut to (1/2/3/4).lnk
- glweax.exe
- glweax.scr
- x.exe
- xxx.dll
- zjroic.exe
- zjroic.scr
-xjdqob.exe
3.
There is an app called - Perfect Applock - that might have something to do with this.. Not sure.
I have read in forums, to put the phone in flight mode and restart it, then try to go to app manager within 30sec to uninstall the app.
i tried that but it still doesnt work. the App still exists..
btw, i have also tried removing the apps via app manager, that doesnt work. although it says sucessfully uninstalled.
when you reboot the tab, all the apps are present.
4.
I installed root app using superoneclick so that i can install a root explorer app - but it kept crashing.
---
My guess, is that there is a virus, or something that is recreating the apps. or not granting access to where the apps are stored (guessing in /preload/app).
i have read forums and some people said it might be a faulty internal storage.. i did the checks(some commands using adb) to verify but it was negative.
so i dont think the internal storage is bad.
Right now i am stuck... the tab has stock rom v5 installed right now.. not rooted and with 3e recovery.
any help will be greatly appreciated.. thank you in advance.

correct me if i am wrong.. but isnt wiping a rom the same as flashing a rom??
i have flashed the stock rom.. and the apps werent deleted.
if its not the same, then how do i wipe a rom??
---
Just to add, i have noticed that i cannot format the internal storage.
- tried formating by phone (settings > sd card and device storage > format usb storage). it completes but nothing gets deleted.
- tried formating from computer, - it doesnt complete.
- tried formating with partition wizard.. it completes succesfully but nothing gets deleted.
Hence i think the issue is - something is preventing access to internal storage..
is there any app/adb command that i can force format the phones internal storage??
Stubborn data/apps is a sign of internal storage going bad.

Formatting from computer formats your sd card..and no, flashing a rom via recovery does not necessarily mean a data wipe...try following ChrisCTX's guide...search for it

Hey Gogol,
thaaanks a lot. The guide worked after several tries.
Main problem was flashing cm9 pics rom. It wouldn't complete. But I kept trying and it worked.
I now hv cyanogen mod 9 with ics. Using the tab to reply right now.
One issue tho is that the camera cannot store in internal storage. It needs an sdcard.
Is there a work around on this.
I looked under settings-storage and the internal storage is recognized.
And also under camera settings internal storage is chosen as storage location but it cannot save there.
Any Ideas? Guess I Have to find a way to make internal storage and sdcard storage the same.
Thanks

i forgot but it looked for a guide to switch or exchange internal and sd-card.
so the tablet will think its using the internal storage but its actually using the sd-card.
its somthing like this:
If you take a root file browser and edit /system/etc/volb.fstab, there are two sections you need to edit. "dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc" changes to "dev_mount emmc /mnt/Edvard" and "dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard" changes to "dev_mount SD card /mnt/emmc".
i cant confirm this is what i did.. but i am sure i edited the volb.fstab... i had to google around for a while till i found one that works for me.
make sure you backup your volb.fstab before you make changes.
Note: i found cyanogen mode to be slow running from sd-card.. so i changed to a regular gingerbread rom. and i was able to edit the volb.fstab with sucess.. and the camera was able to save pics.. the tablet just always had the - NO SD-CARD icon at the top all the time. coz it thought the sd-card is the internal storage.. and the internal storage which i removed was the sd-card - which i destroyed.
hope this helps.

but then i noticed that i cant copy any files into internal or even external sd card by chance sometimes it gets copied but almost all times it keeps giving me this error
0x800703EE the volume for a file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid
also if i tried to download apps from google play first it gave me 927 error but now it goes into just downloading bar while real download never starts
what should i do i dont want to root my phone.I did factory reset.

I have never heard anyone having a problem like the one you're having...
But you will have to Root in-order to Backup your Data and/or files... then flash CoCore Kernel with TWRP to boot to Recovery and Backup only your Data in your Micro SD card.... then perform a Factory Reset or go back to Gingerbread....
(You can try this too, but it won't be much help.. also this doesn't require any Root too)... Connect your phone with your PC and copy everything to your PC
About the Error 927 from Google Play.... I don't know about that too... but try Wiping Cache and Dalvik using TWRP...
and BTW. I think the error 0x800703EE the volume for a file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid" is a Windows related issue.. not Android related..
About that google play error code...you can try checking with google play support about the error code if it persist.
And are you by any chance using 3g? Because the default setting for Play is to block big downloads if you're using 3g. Check your play setting, and if that didn't help then cancel the download in the app page and then restart it. It will ask you to allow the download with 3g or something like that. Don't use the online google play (play.google.com) from browser for this. Use the app

Where did you put the zip? It has to be in externel. And don't put in any folder. Just throw it in the root of your externel sd card

Repartition external SD, told 100 times from me. Search xda, internet... For answer how to do it. It is not just format. You need to remove and add partition. This is if you do not see any file in recovry. If you do, than you are doing something wrong.

funny thing happened when i put different sd card i can detect root.zip in recovery mode so it will be okay if i root through different external sd and then start using my old same external sd? will it create any problem?

Using other external sd card for rooting won't create a problem. But u wud need this root zip file wen u reflash this JB or upcoming variants of JB.
For now its perfectly alrite.

Just as in previous post. And that happend because that second sd is partitioned as it should. That was the case for me too, old 2GB SD worked nice, and 8GB didn't work. After repartition of that 8GB it worked well too.

You can flash ur country's ROM using ODIN and for root u can use the same SD card and same root file for ur country's firmware. And backup the root file to your computer and copy it to sd card ONLY IF IT GETS DELETED.

problem after cocore6 flash
i flashed cocore 6(TWRP 2.5) yesterday and and now i cant copy anything in my internal sd & the thing is same thing had happened before when i flashed XXLQB on gingerbread so to solve it i had to clear all caches and did factory reset(even when i had done this all after first flash) and after that flashed rom again & did previous procedure again then only i got back copying function.
is something wrong with my SGSA only that when i flash something this problem pops up? plz advice any solution thanx in advance.
P.S. i want to flash custom roms in future but i cant due to this problem :'(
