[SOLVED] V won't download anything using Chrome (pictures, fiiles etc) - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hi,
also camera app won't save photos directly to internal storage. Looks like apps have no permission to write to internal storage.
XPERIA V: unlocked,rooted and CWM installed.
I flashed XPERiA_V_LiTE_V2_by_doenen and Toxizen. The same problem on both. On CM 12 everything was fine.
I had some problems getting rid of CM backup and installing CWM.
Any ideas?

Write this in terminal emulator:
Code:
su
chmod 777 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
chown -R 1023:1023 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0

Already tried that, didn't work.
But, I formatted internal memory from CWM, did full recovery and it started working!

MyBackup Pro Question

I just installed it and did a backup, wiped my G1 and went and restored each app. Now on the market it still says free which I dont have a problem. My concern is will I get notifcations for updates for the apps still even tho it says free for that app installed.
Well the first time I tried restoring my apps after a flash all of my apps said "Update available"... I started using that to get it to say "Installed" and then for no appearant reason they all said "Free". So I assume so... however I could be mistaken because my apps are stored to sd so I never have to technically restore my apps.

Wait hold on...
If apps are stored to the SD card than we dont have to reinstall or back up our apps?
Lets say I have my apps installed to SD. Than I do Alt W wipe. My apps will still be there? I usally reformat my ext2 partition before I do an alt w wipe.

Not sure why you would need to reformate your ext2 partition.
I just follow the steps to restore the apps to sd.
I have all the .sh files stored to my sdcard and use gscript.
Here's is the script itself that I use...
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm -r /data/app
ln -s /system/sd/app /data/app
rm -r /data/app-private
ln -s /system/sd/app-private /data/app-private
reboot
Click to expand...

and it restores all of my apps automatically.
The only thing is that i have to go back to market and install them again from market so that it won't say "update available" or "free" even though I have them installed already.
You can also check this out here. VERY USEFUL! All you need to do is plug in the directory of your adb.exe and the location of your apps that are backed up onto your computer and it installs the rest. Obviously you need to already have the apps to sd mod running before you do it.
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm -r /data/app
ln -s /system/sd/app /data/app
rm -r /data/app-private
ln -s /system/sd/app-private /data/app-private
reboot

That doesnt seem to be working for me. After I reboot I just get stuck in the endless flashing droid on statup.

It may flash for a while. I noticed that mine flashed for about 2 or 3 minutes.

A2SD Help

I am on Fresh 2.0d I thought on this Rom it was already installed. I formatted the sd card as told. However, I don't think it is working. ON the Recovery menu there is a place that says transfer apps to sd & delvik. Am I supposed to use that?
Two places to go, here and also here

connect your phone to your computer and open adb and type....
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /data/app
pwd
cd /data/app-private
pwd
What this will do is go to your /data/app folder and because with appstosd that is a symbolic link to /system/sd/app the PWD (present working directory) will display /system/sd/app, if PWD shows /data/app you are not running appstosd

I am running Fresh 2.0d is A2SD not supposed to be already installed?
Goto the link and flash the updated a2sd zip, reading thru the directions. I had problems before I did that as well.

Yes...Fresh 2.0d has a version of A2SD installed.
Do you have an ext2 or ext3 partition on your sd card? Without that, A2SD won't even work.

100% used space on /system and cannot mount as r/w, why?

Hi Guys,,
I have installed CF3D on my GNote but when I was about to install CF Drivers it says that my /system is insufficient, so I check it right away by using df -k on a terminal emulator and found out that 100% space used on /dev/block/mmcblk0p9. My solution to this is to remove some system app, I have tried Titanium backup but no good,so i decided to use root explorer and delete some app is system/app, the weird thing is that i could not mount the /system as r/w, so i decided to remount /system as rw using a terminal emulator, i used this command
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
but still i could not delete data on /system/app... another weird thing is that I could not list the directories or files in the /system using "ls" command in terminal emulator, the error says, "value too large for defined data type".
My questions
1. is this part of the mmc_cap_erase bug, because if i remember very well, i have flashed something on cwm which causes FC's on my device right after that, my internal sd card and external sd card is unreadable , and then when it ask to reformat it and i click yes, then everything is ok, after that i changed ROM (from criskelo v8 to kingdroid v3) and i never encountered that bug again.
2. is there any way to mount /system as r/w? or is there any other way to uninstall system app. Ive tried every "free apps" on the market to uninstall system app but i could not find a successful one.
3. if this is part of the mmc_cap_erase bug, can i used the fix in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667886 to solve my problem??
Thanks to those who are willing to give me some advice.

[Q] Internal Storage problem after clean install (Xperia T & CM12)

I tried to do a clean install of CM12 by whiteneo. In addition to factory reset i also did a system and internal storage wipe (NOT SD CARD but one of two partitions in which the storage of an android is divided, in particulary the one dedicated to data).
Everything went well , the rom works...but when i tried to open camera , it said "cannot take picture without an sd card", so i tried to move an app to internal storage and the operation failed. In settings the voice move to sd doesn't appear. But at the same time i can see the content of internal storage that only contains two folder "lost+found" and "TWRP".
It's like my phone can't see the interal storage.
Any solutions ??? THANKS!!

Xperia devices use a different owner for the internal storage. (2800 instead of 1023)
Unfortunately, all AOSP roms set the user to 1023 after formatting. That's why the apps can't access it.

When you connect your phone to your PC, does the "internal memory" show up in your PC?
Also, stock 4.3 Roms don't use /mnt/media_rw to mount the sdcards, afaik.

Go to Settings => Apps => All, find "Media Storage" (com.android.providers.media) and press the "Clear Data" button, and then restart your phone. If that doesn't work, you could also copy all your media to your computer and then format the SDcard in Android.
