do you not speak english? or do you just PHail?
what do you mean by "up rom"? upgrade? upload?
what rom were you before? stock?
disLagfix ? disable lagfix? is that what you mean? you would DISABLE BEFORE flashing, ENABLE after.
loading files via your phone? #1 you load TO your phone VIA a usb calbe or VIA wifi ect. #2 what do you ACTUALLY mean? that you cant push with odin? cant mount usb? ect.....
try including information, to help us help you, if you want help.
and using terms that we dont use, makes it obvious you didnt READ AND LEARN BEFORE FLASHING.

yes, my English's not good enough to explain my idea =)
i meant i wanted to upgrade Andmedora 1.1 from my current using Phoenix 4.5
then disable lagfix, and reboot phone. Everything worked well but Gallery App. was scanning found "no items". That's my problem.
Thanks for yr kind support.

you cant 'upgrade' you need to flash the FULL 1.1 over your current rom. shouldnt need to disable lagfix at all, but it wouldnt hurt. the idea there is to disable BEFORE you flash the rom, then re-enable it AFTER flashing the rom.
if you flash the full rom over your current rom it will wipe everything for you, except items on your sdcard (pictures/music/apps that store data there, etc)
REmove ext. sd card,. odin back to stock with repartition checked.
your sd card is corrupted mine did this and i had to do this. also format

I´ve had this problem before on di11i's 6.0 rom... just download the SGS Tools 4.5 from this thread - apply the "clean_thumb_db" script, reboot. The gallery should be back to normal after the system scans the media... well... this is how I fixed mine anyway!

I make sure they are ready for view (my data on internal SD card)
Right now I'm using CM 6.1.1 on my Nexus One. When I flashed CM for the first time I wiped my SD card right after I installed the ROM, so I really don't remember too much about what happened to my apps or anything like that. So, my question is, if I want to install CM 7, can I just wipe my phone with ROM manager right before installing it, and then not wipe my SD card afterwards? Will the apps, pictures, ect., that is on my SD card right now magically appear untouched on CM 7? I guess I'm just not sure how the SD card contents will be affected when flashing ROMs, and I'm not sure if after you flash a new ROM, the ROM can use all of the stuff that's on your SD card just like the ROM you had before did.. Does that kinda make sense? I feel dumb for asking all this. Also, when I save a backup of my ROM, the backup will just be a copy of all of my phone's internal memory and the operating system, right? And when I wipe my phone and install a new ROM, the new ROM just replaces all of my phone's old contents? So if I ever flashed my original ROM again, it'd bring back all of my phone's contents, system memory, operating system, apps installed on the phone, ect?
Thanks for taking the time to read my long, poorly written batch of questions Help would be very very appreciated!
SD card isn't touched when flashing ROMs.
You can restore your backup and it'll be all like it was.
If you use DT A2SD - things start being more complicated.

Yes, you can leave your SD contents as is, they won't be touched.

Pictures, Music, Videos etc that are stored on the SD card will remain untouched by flashing a new ROM, however apps are a different story. Basically you've got two main types of Apps on SD cards. The first is froyos implementation which is basically used to free up space on the phone memory but will not survive a wipe or flashing a new ROM. The alternative is Dark Tremors A2SD which uses a dedicated partition on your SD card (Created through recovery) to store apps by tricking the system into thinking the folder on your SD card is actually on internal memory. Once a new ROM is installed over the current (Which obviously must use DT A2SD also) these apps should be available again with their settings etc remaining.
I guess I'm just not sure how the SD card contents will be affected when flashing ROMs, and I'm not sure if after you flash a new ROM, the ROM can use all of the stuff that's on your SD card just like the ROM you had before did

Again, all data/media remains but apps require A2SD or its variants.
Also, when I save a backup of my ROM, the backup will just be a copy of all of my phone's internal memory and the operating system, right?

When you backup/nandroid you take a screenshot of sorts of your system. By default I think most recovery images save the boot, system, data and cache partitions when a backup is being made. Certain recoveries offer to backup other partitions such as sd-ext (Where A2SD stores the apps). Backups are designated by folders with a time stamp, I personally rename these to reflect the contents e.g. MM.v.20 tells me this is MicroMods v.20 of his GB ROM. Obviously yours will differ but I find this keeps things organised. Basically think of nandroid as the Android equivalent of Acronis true image or Norton Ghost for the PC. It lets you create any number of backups which will restore your device to the exact state at the moment of backup.
And when I wipe my phone and install a new ROM, the new ROM just replaces all of my phone's old contents?
Click to expand...

A newly flashed ROM will basically restore your device to factory settings but on the new ROM. Once you've signed in to your Google account certain settings and content will be automatically downloaded e.g. Calendar appointments, Contacts. Other settings will not be restored e.g. Display brightness, alarms.
So if I ever flashed my original ROM again, it'd bring back all of my phone's contents, system memory, operating system, apps installed on the phone, ect?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Nope, again it would return to the factory settings. However you can restore nandroid backups you have made of your original ROM which would return the system exactly to its previous state.
Basically if you're on a stock ROM it won't have A2SD. If you wish to use A2SD from now on then find a ROM which uses it, partition your SD card appropriately (Plenty of guides around) and you'll have minimal problems moving from ROM to ROM. As for Nandroid you'll find that most ROM devs recommend wiping all data from the phone (Not SD card) before flashing their ROM. Otherwise files or settings from other ROMs can cause some undesired effects on your current one.
Good luck and get reading the Nexus wiki, it's very helpful for these types of questions
Note: For some reason I vaguely remember someone noting that Froyos A2SD can be used to move apps to another ROM or at least the base app itself (If not the individual setup/settings) but I can't seem to find any info after a quick Google and it never interested me enough to look into it further. Perhaps someone can clear this up?

I dont think thats true.. suppose it's formatted during a wipe.. titanium backup serves the purpose like a charm.. (with all the settings for the apps and the resumes for the games)

I have a similar question to the OP. I use a 1GB EXT through DT's A2SD. If I wanted to flash a new ROM would the following be my step-checklist?
1 - Nand backup (just in case)
2 - Backup apps with Titanium
3 - wipe system data & cache
4 - flash new rom
5 - restore apps?
I'm just wondering what the procedure is to keep the apps in A2SD on a new flash without re-setting up.

yeah that would be fine..
btw 1: if you upgrading a cm nightly, you need not wipe system n cache..
2: if you do a titanium backup before, then you can finish all the steps in the recovery in one go..
n I dint quite get what you are asking. but from what I know, apps 2 sd folder (ie android.secure) is erased in a wipe.. that isnt changing
Sent from my Nexus One
shreyas - thanks for your help.
I understand the A2SD (EXT) partition onthe sd will be wiped, but I'm assuming I would have to do nothing to get the new rom to see the ext and use it?
That's really my question. Would recovering my apps from Titanium push them back on the A2SD location or would I need to install A2SD again?
i don't think so..
I suppose that the pro version must support the direct a2sd.. but give it a try.. if it dosent work then you have do manually..

Hello all,
I have upgraded my ace to Gingerbird 2.3.6
I have rooted it successfully.
Now my big question is how to move/install apps to my SD rather then my phone memory..
I know this question is very frequent over here.. but am very noob here.. am not sure of which ROM am using..
So please let me know some ways to move it ? anyting can be done with the emulator?
App2sd app in market
from XDA app
Press THANKS if I helped
Just follow this tutorial my friend.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1476121
whether apps2sd and link2sd, which one is da best?? i`m in stock rom and using cf-root b84.. what is the difference between them?
there is 2 thinks of moving app to sd. moving app to fat32 sd format which is simpler, and move app to ext sd format (as internal memory extention).
for moving app to fat32 sd card format is easy. use app2sd or link2sd. But some widget will not work. and not all app can be moved, only app that support app2sd.
for moving app to ext sd card format, you will need to make ext partition on the sd card. please google or search in the forum, how to make ext partition, many ways....
then after ext partition exist, you can use a2sd darktremor script + a2sdGUI, or S2E available in market.
note: S2E work simpler but only for CM rom.

AFAIK, S2E works only with CM based ROM. This guy is on stock.
Yes, I am still in stock ROM.. confused of which custom ROM to use.. I am waiting for a stable release of CyanogenMod..
Very new to flashing of ROMs
App2Sd moves the apps only which supports them.. not all..
I am gonna follow saruboy's tuturial for moving..
And I have another question for you people..
I have installed CWM, but now what does
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Wipe cache partition
- Wipe dalvik cache
mean ? how we do it? sorry for the noob question.. but am very new
I would be very thankful to get a reply on this

I hope you know that your volume buttons are for moving up/down in CWM Recovery mode, Power Button to go back in previous menu and HOME button to apply the selection.
So,
Moving --> Volume Button
Select --> HOME
Go in previous menu --> Power button.
Now, Factory Reset means, it resets the current Installed ROM to its factory defaults. Meaning, It will erase all apps and your phone will be restored at the state like when you have bought the phone (for stock ROM) or you have just freshly installed a new custom ROM.
Wipe Cache Partition, clears the cache memory of ROM.
Now, dalvik files are the one which are made on application first run. For the default apps which comes with ROM by default, those app's dalvik cache will be generated on the First Boot.. This is the reason, why first boot after every custom ROM installation is slow. This dalvik-cache are generally have .dex or .deodex extension. Each app have it's own separated dalvik file. Now, by wiping this, means removing dalvik cache from OLD ROM before flashing a new one.
Anything else?
A big thanks to you Rushyang
Have hit the thanks for you

What should I do to put apps2sd and increase phone memory? (I can make ext2 partition on cwm recovery SD partitioning)
How can I move dalvik cache on new ext2 partition on my SD card?
Could someone explain to me exactly what to do?
I want to stay on stock ROM but also to have benefits of many apps on my phone.

Use link2sd if you're on stock rooted rom.
-backup your sd to your pc, cuz partitioning will format your sd card, wiping everything on it.
-partition. Using cwm from your phone or minitool partition wizard on your pc.
-install link2sd, create mount script to fat32, or ext2 (whatever works). Then reboot (keep trying other formats if one doesn't work)
-start linking apps. This will move them to sdext partition.
Good luck.
Im interested to know exactly what to do on the phone after making a fat32 partition. What steps and/or procedure? Im not an expert and I dont want to brick a phone or someting like that. But really need more space for apps!

anyway...maybe someone can have a look to the script to get last things done...will attach it here...
also for the future...i like to have the whole data mounted to the sd...if anyone can help or have ideas...let me know

Is it safe to flash or will I lose my SD card or Root if I do?

Is that script specifically for this ROM or all other versions of any ROM ? I'm actually interested as everything I download gets downloaded to internal sdcard,and not external. Is the script automatic ? Or does one need to run it as an automatic option (run at boot:script manager) ? I'm on a 4.4.4 ROM, so this script is the first time I've seen anything like it...

Tested the script (the one that taken from your ROM.zip)
In a way ... it is a very good script as it mounts the whole external_sd as internal_sd. So the original internal_sd is basically not in use as storage by the system. But users can manually use the original internal_sd to store his files such as musics, movies & etc.
So to use this script, it is advisable on a clean flashed ROM.
I tested this script on my personal ROM. The whole external_sd now mounted as internal_sd. And the original internal_sd now mounted as intSdCard. So any app that rely on its data in internal_sd will fail. Simple solution is to move its data from intSdCard to newly mounted internal_sd.
Now .. I can understand your idea to have the whole data mounted to original internal_sd. And I believe the whole data already mounted to internal_sd. Reason is, in MTP the Internal storage now read the external_sd.
So... need to find a fix to show the right storage space instead of the old space storage .. then we can mount a bigger capacity sdcard as internal_sd

@Alex-V I hope i'm not asking a stupid question here but with that script of yours, does that mean that if I install apps, the apps and they're data will go into my external SD card instead of the M8's internal storage?
Will you also mind posting some recommended kernel settings for the first time users?
I saw that I have to use the firmware posted, can I just use back sense firmware as I don't have s-off?

I saw that I have to use the firmware posted, can I just use back sense firmware as I don't have s-off?

1. The apps and their data still go to data partition but their \Android\data\ and \Android\obb will go to external_sd instead of internal storage.
2. Kernel settings - Alex-V is the right person to advise as I don't use any custom kernel.
3. Not necessarily to use that particular firmware, you can use your 4.4.4 Sense firmware .. maybe yours is same as mine 3.32.707.9

Guess my SD card has to be fast and big for performance to be smooth? As for the kernel, i'm using stock at the moment. We do have the same firmware by the way
I have read the thread by nrupesh2912 on how to extend storage on Micromax Canvas Turbo phone. It is really helpful, however I have some complications:
I have encrypted my Internal storage and (maybe) as a result I can't take a NANDROID backup of my device which is essential before formatting my SD Card.
Another member FSadino has suggested that I can directly flash a custom ROM / new stock ROM to my device right after extending the storage.
I can proceed with the steps mentioned in nrupesh2912's thread for extending my storage but after the green circle part I'm little confused on how to proceed.
Can anyone please explain how to do it? I want to install Pure Xperia Z2 ROM.
I have rooted my phone and have installed CWM recovery on it.
Please Help.

So what do you want to do in your phone? Extend storage? Flash Stock Rom? Flash Custom Rom? Nandroid Backup?

Right I do not have any doubt in individual processes. What i don't understand is how do I place the zip file of ROM after extending the storage, since the memory card becomes corrupt and needs formatting?
Thanks

You have 2 options:
First flash rom then extend storage.
OR
First extend storage, format sd card, copy zip file to sd card, flash rom.
