Hi guys, i have a problem with my 2 months old phone. A few weeks ago, when i tried to reboot it kept force closing and restarting scanning all storage.That went on for 30 times or so and after that it worked just fine. I did not deactivate it for a couple of weeks, but when i did it was all over again foce closing and restarting. I am now too afraid to deactivate the device. Any ideas? Thanks in advance
(currently in stock rom, unrooted)
try go to recovery and wipe cache 2 times

And do fix permissions....also you can wipe dalvik cache safely....in advanced
Edit: Oh oh sorry I see you probably don't have CWM...apologize to you...

maybe you can install rom toolbox lite and wipe dalvil cache maybe... I saw wipe menus in there I think, but never used it.
thank you all for the replies. Will try some of the above and get back to you. I just dont want to get the phone rooted this soon...
It seems that my external 8 GB sd card was the problem. I unmounted and formated it and the phone works again, without rebooting. Now i 'll try to keep most of my apps on the internal storage, or the build in sd card to avoid future problems. Thanks again.

Hi...good to see you're fixed!!
BTW....you can't use the Internal USB Storage [SD] to move Apps to..
In our SGS Apps can only be moved to External SD Card.
unless you do the SD mount-point swap in your vold.fstab file...but as you are not rooted, that is not a runner.

Okay, I updated to 2.3.5 europe just last week using the RUU extracted installer. All was well and lovely until two days ago.
My SD card has gone crazy. As soon as I unmount and remount the SD card, the phone reads the SD card in a really weird way. The app drawer shows only a few apps that are installed. Majority of apps that I had on the SD card have now vanished - but are still installed because my internal memory is the same - and they still appear in applications list. It says it doesn't exist?
I've rebooted my phone, hard reset, factory reset, format SD card.. everything you can name, I've TRIED IT. Every time I reboot the phone it happens. apps disappear into a black hole. Also, I've reinstalled all apps thrice and cba to do it again! It says "failed to move application" for most apps at first when I try to move them with the App2SD app.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Should I revert back to my old ROM?
Is there a way to fix this? My phone is S-ON, no root.
EDIT: Now I cannot even unmount the SD card...
I had a MAJOR problem where the phone stopped recognizing the SD card. It would literally say unavailable and wouldn't recognize ANY cards at all.

Have you taken out the SD-card and put it back again? Sometimes the phone gets bad connection to the card and "exercising" it may help.

I've tried everything, even changed back from Sandisk to my samsung SD card. Same problem, it keeps rebooting at times and eventually stops and works perfectly.
Really REALLY annoying. It must be the ROM.
Just use Jik's salsa ROM, it runs really smoothly, frees up memory via link2sd and has new lock screen.
Then install the v6 supercharger and battery calibrator for a really great experience with this phone.
Get an XTC Clip and become S-Off, it's great.

I instaled 264 apps on my desire HD with Cyanogen mod 7.1. 3/4 on my sd card. When i restart my device, he crash after 30 secs and it always does since. I test without my SD, and he works and no crash. What's my problem? Maybe App 2 SD?
Probably. Not App2SD as such, but you might have moved an important app to the SD card, or the phone might be trying to start an app on boot which is on SD card, but your SD card might be too slow to read and that's causing the crash. Try this, put your SD card in a card reader and connect it to a computer, copy all the data off it to the computer and format it (Full format not quick format, 32kB cluster size). Then copy your data back to it. Now see if it works. If it does, it means there was a messed up filesystem on the SD card and the phone had problems reading it. If the problem still exists, try booting into recovery>wipe &format>wipe cache and dalvik cache, and reboot your phone. If it's still not solved, do a factory reset of CyanogenMod (or) reflash it (wipe boot, system, data, cache before that), redownload all your apps and set up your phone again. That's the last option but it's sure to make it work properly now. Next time, don't move any and every app to the SD card because CyanogenMod allows it. Some apps are supposed to be in the internal memory only.
Good luck!

i have 8gb class 10 micro sd from samsung and if i put anygames or apps whatsoever on it my phone just dont like it. it has rebooting cycles.
as soon as i take the sd card out my phone is fine
i only have apps that are meant for sd on there such as temple run, angry birds.
i have not have apps like app2sd or busybox or widgets on the card.
should i just format my usb storage and sd card because it always happens if i put apps on it. everytime reboot reboot reboot.

Restart
my phone had been working well, normal when suddenly my phone froze when i was listening to music.
so i took my battery out,put it back in.
the as soon as the memory card reloaded it started boot loops.
at the moment im fixing permissions but i cannot do that with my memory card in.
should i just completely reset my phone because it happens when i put any app on the memory card, then after moving the apps if i reset the phone it does boot loops after..nothing fixes it.
its all stock only just rooted.

Man, this sounds exactly like your problem I linked above????
fixing permissions is not going to help, unless the Apps on SD Card can also be included, which does not seem to be possible......
You could also try Stericsons fix permissions App, which only allows to fix permissions for one App at a time....
but if you us told everything last time, there seems to be a problem with that SD Card!!!!
And, off course, just pulling Battery can, possibly, cause corruption, as programs loaded are not closed cleanly, so "unclean shutdown" is bad news.
factory????

U can wipe data/cache, factory reset, format system, data, etc. They will be clean.
I am having an issue with my epic 4g touch. The phone is confusing the internal memory and the external sd card. So when I download something it ends up going into the internal from music to apps. In the settings/storage it says I have things on my sd card but if I go to it in root explorer, it shows nothing. My problem is that when I flash a new rom and do a nandroid backup, the backup disappears on me. I will put the backup on the sd card but when I go back to it, it's gone. It doesn't show up on the internal either. The last time I flashed a rom I got stuck with no backup. Needless to say I am a little scared to try again. It has done this with two separate sd cards. Please help? I am confused. Does anyone else have this problem?
I have had some similar issues. For me it doesn't acknowledge my external sd card alot of times lately.

Have you tried removing and formatting the MicroSD card through Windows?
(Or mount as USB in FI03 and format that way)
Hello All,
I have installed paranoid Android a week ago and all was fine but due to space constraints (gapps ate too much) had to format and partition the sd card today with 4ext Method of abaaabb63 and installed CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed and have 504 MB space but after i installed Gapps nothing is showing and for every reboot all my settings are wiped and starts everything afresh.Any idea why this is happening i have a slow SD card .So please let me know what might be the problem? Also i cannot switch on the wireless nor the browser is working.
You did delete the previous a2sd script before installing int2sd+, didn't you?

Oh i guess i did Andoo and now what should i do? i formatted and partitioned using 4ext method but i particularly didnt delete anything but did a thorough format and also wiped cache and dalvik. So now whats in store for me?
I think your sd-card is the problem here. It's losing data. How old it is? What class?
