[S5830I] Random applications disappearing after reboot

It only happens to apps on the SD (natively).
Moving them to internal memory is not an option since it's rather small.
Is there any way to fix this?

Lol I also have this sometimes on my sgsII v9. I jus unmount sd and mount it back and my apps are back. Hope this helps

Nope, didn't help. Using a backup app now just in case, but it still would be nice to figure out why this happened in the first place.

Maybe because Urs us S5830i which has. Different hardware specs from the normal S5830

Settings FC on ICS, with Internal Memory at half

I'm getting "Non Responding" box (old FC box...) on every ICS Rom I've tryied till now. Talking about ICS TW, stock or Custom.
When I go to Settings-Applications, the screen take some time to show apps (it's normal, OK), but after that, it doesn't show the apps size.
It freezes some seconds, then go Black screen, except for the notification bar. Nothing works, except the screen time-out.
After about 30 seconds, the message "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped working" or so, appears.
This issue appears frequently after a massive apps installation, i.e., after a data/factory reset changing Rom.
In other words: once the 2GB of internal memory are half-filled, the probability of this issue is high.
The phone works right, otherwise; but is hard to push big apps into the SD. I must open Apps2SD, be care to the "time window" while it shows "computing...", and force-push to SD, before Settings FC in the underground.
Sorry if I have been too long. The issue is really easy to see in the real life...
Nobody has/had this issue?

what's a "repetitioned phone"?
I've buy my Note in a very seriuos big shop. It's N7000 for Europe, original unlocked.
Coming with ... don't remember, maybe 2.3.5 Germany, but buy in Spain, back in mars.
Using deodexed LC1 for a long period, I think the most stable thing I've been using.
I've been using LRQ by g .lewarme (gavin), then CleaNote v6, then SweetRom...

What kernel are you on? What rom?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium

Notecore 14.1 OC
CleaNote v6
But this behavior appears on ICS, on any kernel-Rom I've tryied, Last Philz's are glam, but same thing. Hydracores are the worst, even with CleaNote!
Best w. Notecores and Speedcores. Std or OC doesn't influences noticiablely....
Edited; this behavior remembers me sadly the fatal combination Milestone-Droid with official Froyo update, who had same problem, amongst others...

Run a scan with the following app, sounds like you may have damaged emmc. If the scan crashes its bad news.

I yet had this app, but only made brick-bug test ("bad chip").
Anyway, "test passed"....
Another suspect behavior: if I click Storage on Settings, it takes almost 5 minutes (!) to display the USB storage occupation.
Never seen that on GBread, even with a huge number of apps.
Edited: writing this with the Note. It really works, as you can see. In fact, the Settings issue is the only noticiable one.

Just as a last thing, try removing external sd card, see if you get same behaviour after reboot.

Thanks, I will try that tomorrow. Bed is calling me...
Edited on Monday 26th: Same thing without the external-SD
Anyway. Waiting for a good JB to see if this behavior stops.
Thanks so much for read all this posts!!

Big go up to this thread, sorry . Maybe this can help someone.
I've flashed a JB Rom, the Sweet Rom v 2,5. I have almost a half internal apps memory occuped, and things are right! :good:
No more Settings FC (by now). It seems that something went wrong with the ICS SD-USB organization, at least on my device...
Now things go faster an safer.

does SWAP help making games less lag?

soi curreltny made a 256 mb swap file and using v6 supercharger and everything but i didn'treally notice a difference in game performance , i can open like 5 apps but games nbot really?is it normal?

The smoothness of games depends also on the power of the cpu and gpu, which isn't the ace's strenght.
Swap helps for multitasking and keeping apps in memory longer (which reduces app loading time) but it won't make games run better or faster.

I guess little bit it help in performance of game as its usefull in load game data faster !

If your sd card is class 6 or lower, it can even slow down your games

After installing some heavy games, there's really no gaming difference. Only multi tasking has drastically improved.
I even tried out JB this afternoon using this same method and it still didn't make a gaming difference. The multi tasking is awesome though so I have no complaints.

How hard on a SD card is this?

I bought an extra one just for swap. Bought a 4GB class 4. Not risking my 8GB. It's hard on a SD with INT2EXT+ also installed. I don't know how long it'll last but once you got swap, you'll never go back.
I can play Tank Hero, switch to facebook on Opera Mini while answering to chats on WhatsApp and IMO instant messenger. Without having my game interrupted. AND run a bunch of widgets that would slow down my phone. Multi-tasking is incredible.
And the best part is, since I'm using a swap file and not partition, I can shrink or increase the swap size at will

Yeah dude. Try it out. Just make a backup before you do.

Swap is pretty useless on mobile
And you get a dead SD card with it too, like those buy one get one free in shops

Don't generalize. It's useless to you. I bet you haven't even used it before.

*For fun* - What have been your best bug in a rom ever?

So yeah, a silly thread
So I ll get started,
On SGS2, no the N4, but still:
I had that MIUI rom installed where the normal microphone and the noice-cancelation microphone were inverted. So of course calling people, they would complain how low was my voice, and shouting in the "Microphone" would do worse
So how about you?

Text messages would be sent to a different contact.... no good when you are juggling women lol
That was on my I9100 and galaxy nexus though...... So far no funny business on the LG nexus 4!

On my i9100 was running siyah kernel and got an app freeze. Mashed the home button and the whole phone inverted colours... I was like "whaaaaaaaaaat?!" but apparently it's a kernel feature

That was a problem with Android, I believe back in Froyo or Gingerbread days. Thankfully it's been fixed.
Other than that, I hate bugs and need a stable rom, therefore stock. But sometimes stock has it's own share of bugs as well. Couldn't find any neither though.

For me it was the I'm sexy And I Know It Song when my phone booted.

Sensation 4g on cm9, had call audio routing issues. Meaning when you would be on a call, sometimes the voice would come out of the external speaker instead of the earpiece.

There is a quite funny bug on paranoid android for the nexus 4.
If you activate 180° screen rotation and turn the phone upside down, the screen is sometimes mirror-inverted.
Happens for example in the xda app when replying to a thread.
There was another great bug on the desire hd for some time.
When you wanted to partition the sdcard through clockworkmod, it partitioned the internal storage instead of the sdcard.
So it basically formatted the whole internal storage. Including the bootloader and everything else.

Oh the internal format storage, happened also in the beginning of JB on the S3, where CM (I think that was CM) would invert the mounting points yeah

On the galaxy exhibit 4g cm9, you couldn't call 911, the phone app would force close. glad I never needed to

My Xperia Play with Google Now, voice input is mapped to the camera mic in the back. Took a while to figure out why it wasn't working.
Also the SII had issues with upside down reversed image, probably due to the TV screen off animation mod.
Also not a rom bug, but beginning with Jelly Bean I didn't realize you have to specifically allow Google to access your location otherwise none of the Google apps can get GPS fix, took a long time for me figure out the issue.

The phone seriously slows down while updating apps

I have observed this for the last few months and it's very annoying. While updating apps, the phone slows down seriously and almost stops working. I have seen this on ICS as well as JB. Has anyone else experienced this and how to solve this issue?
4.1.2 JB LSZ Union ROM v5, KSO Modem, speedmod K-5 kernel, Carrier: AT&T (US)

Slows down lil bit (not ’seriously' - like you said), music playback stutters while installing / updating apps.
May be because of less IO ?

This is happening also to me. Very annoying. If i update a couple apps it almost stops working german rom here.

happens to me too, is annoying as the phone pretty much stop responding. I have LBE Security which further makes issue worse by scanning the installation too.

Happened to to me to. On Trinidad and Tobago jb 4.1.2 official.

I have exfat formated sd card class 10 and using directory bind so all my apps data or what ever I install goes into the card.... I wonder could that be a issue?????

Running stunner 2 no slow down when installing updates, apps from the market at all.
But then everything is twice as fast and snappier than all the TW based ROMs I've tried.
