Hello everyone,
I am quite desperate with the P1000. I am not a noob and I have tried everything I know.
After reboot, when I copy a file/folder to the internal storage, it will disappear. When I delete a file/folder it will reappear after.
This happens using the USB connection, I tried formatting it, i tried to securely wipe it, factory reset, flash other roms, re-partition on odin with pit files, connecting with adb and root wipe files... manually format the partitions on recovery.
I cannot start any application once the system has booted. Permanent FC's so no... I cannot use root explorer or any other apps.
Nothing of the above helped.
This problem occurred after updating the device to the latest firmware using KIES. There was no such problem before.
Please, If someone could help here.
Thanks in advance,
id
When the internal memory turning bad, that is the symptom.
You can read many cases here.
They wipes, old data still there.
They install new stuff, it is missing
As if it is read only.
You may have to remove the chip and use external only.
There are two threads dealing with it.

This is a different issue. It doesnt matter what rom I put in, I always get the force close for all the apps. Now I dont know what rom to put in. I put in any rom, initially I get the setup wizard force close, then the google search, market and so on. I have done clearing the cache, tried different kernels.
Another strange that I notice is that whenever I wipe the caches and do a factory reset, there still remains some files in the internal sd card. I formated the sd card as well but when I goto the recovery menu, I still see it. Im trying to fix this issue for the last 3 days. Could some one please help me?
Always make a factory redet after flashing.

I have done factory reset several times. One interesting thing is how many times I do the wiping, the internal sd card still holds some old files. I have even tried to format the sd card but to no help. I still then files. The files are related to CWM and the back up files.

I seen this problem in another thread.. I think it's hardware related... so you might have to send it to Samsung

Would a restore in Kies solve this?
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.
Ok so I've posted this elsewhere and there was no resolution, but I have new info.
So I know there are several others experiencing this problem. Today I flashed every one of the current 4.2.2 roms. I figured I'd install my apps a few at a time to try to determine which app was causing the internal SD to stop mounting. Strangely though when I would boot into the ROM for the first time it did not mount. So I went back farther and only installed the ROM zip and no gapps. Bam it mounted. Rebooted several times, both into recovery and into the system. Each time it mounted. Then I would get excited and install the gapps. Bam no internal SD mount. I tried all the current gapps on here and the insomnia forums. I even downloaded the 03/01 gapps from goo .im.
So obviously this is not all conclusive, but I flashed and wiped and flashed about 25-30 times today trying to figure this out. I confirmed this in my mind for the latest BBB and linereo 10.1.
Those of you wondering I used cwm and tw(the awesome custom insomnia version). My procedure is factory reset/ROM wipe, then I wipe, system, cache, dav cache, internal SD, and Android secure...2 times each. Then I reinstall the ROM.
After install fixing permissions does not fix the problem either.
Also I'm not really expecting any developers to work on solving this since it is also caused by the goo gapps, just thought it might help some of us struggling with this problem.
Swap sd is currently solving my problem, it mounts the internal as external, but it mounts.

I don't think it's really a ROM issue as much as a compatibility issue with some hardware variance with some exhibits. I know we've had other issues that only some people have and no amount of wiping and flashing fixed those.
I bet if we opened up my exhibit, which is only 4 months old, and say camcory or tims we could find differences when we compared them component by component...I believe this is the reason for the varied compatibility.
Hope that helps!

This solution is easier than replacing the system board...
Connect the phone to your computer via USB (this works on tablets with USB as well). When it pops up to ask you to turn on USB storage for the computer, do it. Give it a minute or two to mount the SD and one internal user partition to the computer desktop, then unmount/eject the drives from the computer and turn off USB storage. The other internal partition will be mounted, and will remain so until the next phone reboot.
I've hooked my T679 to both my Hackintosh laptop and my TF101 in this manner, and it works every time.
Thank you red_five_1976 so much for your help. I followed your instruction and voila, it worked !! I like many others, am scratching my head on how exactly to get my external micro SD card to work after installing Android 4.2.2, you method worked for me and I'm a happy man !!

I've also found that if it didn't mount on a reboot, if I reboot to recovery and wipe davlic and cache, then reboot back into ROM that solves the problem.
Btw I'm using the 6/3 AIOP at the moment, best this phone has ever been in every way.

Hello guys I need help. I updated my rooted xsp via pcc yesterday to the latest 4.3 but I did not manage to work. It resulted in bootloops. So with no other choice, I just used flashtool for the first time and it worked. However, I lost all my files in internal storage. Cause I thought flashing will only erase phone data's.
Is there anything would you guys can recommend? data recovery software that can scan our internal memory or some other methods cause I really need to recover some files in there. I Google searched for A couple of hours and none of them worked
Thanks in advance!

I don't remember any program right now, but I know that you MUST NOT delete or transfer any file to your internal storage until you recover it.
Try flashing a custom recovery like TWRP that will allow you to mount USB storage. Then try using a program like AVG file recovery or data recovery in Avg boost speed suite. Avoid writing new data to avoid data being over written.

Hi all,
I noticed that my internal sd card has two 0 folders, they are like so
Sdcard/0/0/
Everything from internet saves on the first /0/Download for ex., i am now on arhd 51, but previously on archidroid everything saved inside /0/0/Download, is there any way to fix this, or repartition or something without need to wipe all the data in sd? Because everything is messed up and i don't know any more wich uses what folder and so on.
Thx in front.

can you post some screenshots of the two folders and their content, perhaps i can tell you what to do?
Edit: you can also copy all the files in one of the 0 folders to the other 0 folder and delete the empty one, i asked for screenshots just to make sure if there is any important file in one of those folders that maybe will cause problems with functioning of other apps or system settings if you replace it.
Here is the /0/0/ and i cannot delete archidroid folder or clockworkmod folder (write protected), also if i copy pictures from 0/0/DCIM/Camera to 0/DCIM/Camera, they are not shown, even after reboot when mediascanner is running, when i transfer them back they are imediately shown.
Edit: i can delete archidroid and clockworkmod folder, but via phone, not via pc, but the probem with transfering pictures to now used DCIM still persists.

I transfered all the pics inside a new folder in sdcard/0/DCIM but they just don't wanna show, they pop up only in sdcard/0/0/DCIM
What can cause this problem? (I can normally view them in file managers.
I noticed that when i force run media scanner it scans storage/emulated/0/0/
It doesnt scan the first /0/ that is used now, can this be fixed?

oke bro, here is what you should do everything personal and important to you like pics./music/documents copy to your external sd card or to your pc if possible both should be safe. format your internal sd card of the phone in recovery mode after everything is restored back put your files back into proper folders and all should be fine again. you are rooted and have custom recovery installed right?

Yes of course i'm rooted with twrp, i tought there was some other way than getting in all that copy paste, but i'll do that and then it must, just must work.
I think i messed something up in archidroid installation when it asked for EXT4 repartitioning or something like that.

yes that must be it, as i had read somewhere on these threads a similar problem like yours its better to avoid changing or setting options from which you dont understand what they do like EXT4 or F2FS partitions unless you know what you are doing. at least thats what i do to avoid any problems with my device

Yes, i know now for future, but, one more question..
It's 'calculating time for copy...' now, i see it'll take ages to 'calculate', so, is there any option to just mount the internal sd card, i remember i could mount it via CWM on my old S2 and everything went quick, but i cannot mount just SD anymore, only as a 'Media device', it seems quite slower..
Do you know an option to do that?
Edit: Disabled indexing, it's flying now

I do recommend using philz touch CWM advanced edition or just the CWM touch version as a recovery choice (especially philz) rather than Twrp, but its all up to you..
I was on philz quite a while, now testing twrp, i did the wipe, everything's perfect now, but i accidentaly deleted my pics coz' they were in the 0/0/ and i deleted the second 0 thinking i don't need it
I got a little shock but i'll recover
