Put the zip file on your internal memory then

Jb gapps makes my phone crash.

I flashed cm10 in cwm and it worked fine. Then I flashed jb gapps rebooted the phone. Android updated finishing boot. And when I go to use the phone it crashes and I can only manual boot into cwm and restore. Is it a bad download or is it cos cm10 is only a nightly and it could be a bit buggy

Download the gapps again and flash it using recovery over the old apps
I will try that thanks.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
It works thanks. But everytime I boot my device it says the process gapps has stopped. I press on OK and it all works fine. Its funny.

Hmmm .. in that case you need a clean flash of the rom again followed by the gapps again

A clean flash. U mean factory reset and wipe cache
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
no i mean flash the current rom again using the wipes and formats (system data preload cache) and install the rom again the way you did it
I really appreciate or help, I'm a little confussed how I perform what or saying to do can u plz give me instructions a little more detailed. I'm still kinda learning as I go. And also do know what my external SD card is called in cm10. I can see it in the settings under storage. But I can't find it in any file browsers es or cm file browser.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
its should be in /storage/sdcard1 or /storage/extSdCard
make sure you have all the files needed to flash the rom on the phone..
now boot into recovery and go to mounts and storage
format /system, data, cache, preload
go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache as well
now > install zip from sd and flash the rom again followed by gapps
**** the above steps is assuming that you are still on the Cm10 kernel as its safe
Thanks sorted it out. But still no ext SD card. I know there is a lot of confussion with where SD cards are mounted in cm builds.

What's there us the /storage/ mount?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
For some reason SDcard 0 and sdcard 1 r both mounted in internal memory. ICS SD binder locates my external SD card in mnt/obb. So I thought that's where it is. But when I copy a file to mnt/obb it does not go to the external card I can't access it anywhere.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
If it helps when I go into settings/ storage and go right to the last option I can't press on it to mount or unmount SD card. Do I need to mount it? Is this my problem
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
It just says insert an SD card for mounting
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Thanks so much for your help bro. Its all working perfectly no crashes and I can access my ext sdcard now. This forum is the best.

nope, everything will work, but i recommend you to move contents of sdcard/0 folder back to sdcard, so you don't have duplicate data files which would serve nothing but eating up memory.

Recovery Error

So after recently AE swapping my device, somewhere during the process of rooting the new one the recovery discovered a glitch. If I boot into recovery it says. "can't mount /recovery/cache" and if I try to install a zip from the SD it doesn't show any of my folders. It shows probably 6 folders all empty that I can't find anywhere on my SD. "GPU, weather, messages." I have tried re installing the recovery.

which recovery?
Um it's currently CWM touch but I tried putting regular CWM and it had the same issue. TWRP also shows no difference.

is there currently a rom loaded? if so I would say connect to it with command prompt and see if you can see the files with an adb shell
Yes the phone itself is working just fine. I sideloaded a rom. However not having working recovery is a significant annoyance. So I'm really just trying to fix the recovery itself.
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
So I just tried going to recovery. It displays the message.
" E: can't mount /recovery/cache/log
/recovery/cache/last_log
Recovery/cache/command. "
When I go to install from SD I don't see my SD folders. I only see.
" /0
/GPU
/clockworkmod
/mms
/weather"
None of these folders are on the root of my SD...

That's because you flashed a 4.2.2 Rom. Wipe your internal storage, reboot and copy your storage contents back to the phone.
Fyi your root has changed to /data/media/0/

Interesting, if I had flashed a 4.2.2 rom... But I didn't. I only flashed Ecliptic... But I'll try that fix thanks.

have root? if so get root uninstaller.
i don't remember those apk's specifically tho. not sure where you got that stuff. do you know what it is?
You've been visiting naughty sites!
Try force stop before uninstalling.
Daily motion, lucky patcher, etc. I tried to force stop before uninstalling and that didn't work. No naughty sites.

Looks like these are on your SD card. Did you try backing up internal storage, removing external SD then delete? Might have to do some SD house cleaning!
No I haven't tried that. What would be the process?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Backup internal storage to PC, then go to settings/general/storage and select format SD card. Do the same with your external SD but use a card reader with your PC. Delete the apps again and reboot. Hopefully the rouge apps will not reappear. Then copy the files you know back into internal storage. Try not to over write anything in internal storage unless you're sure you know what it is. Same for external. Format SD card then copy back the files from the backup you made. If you're not sure about a file, don't copy it back to storage. Hopefully this will take care of the issue. It's also good to clean stuff from storage that serves no purpose. Good luck!

Just delete the secured android folder from your sd card

If I format my internal sd without backing it up what will I lose? Im not worried about anything on it getting lost.

Everything you see in that directory when you view it on a computer.. You will loose all photos, music, games and any other personal data or apps you have downloaded or installed. You will basically have a new phone with only stock apps and data on it.
@Solarenemy68, thank you. Will I lose my root?

I guess it was because I was on 1.0? I got it all situated...now I just gotta figure out how to convert my MicroSD to useable space for downloading apps....Google Play Services is needed for another app I installed...and thats the only two things i have installed!
So you are rooted and running a custom ROM now but have no room left in data partition?
If so you can try custom mtd partitions to free up some room or partition your sdcard to ext4 and run apps from ext partition, much faster than fat32

I'm having trouble with the partition part...I tried partitioning in my recovery and it still says EXT-SD not available, etc....done EXT2, EXT3, EXT4......
What recovery are you using? Try a full format of SD on PC, or even use something like gparted to do it if it won't work on recovery

That's your issue then, bad SD card
