Can you please go into more detail about the phone itself? Like is it rooted and/or running a custom ROM?
And can you go into more of what you are trying to do? That way we can help you.

Have you tried a different kernel? Or different ROM? Or reflash the ROM? Make sure you wipe accordingly, before you flash. If that fails, you might have to use Odin to go back to stock.

Hey,
When I try to install any application to my phone its giving me an error saying 'could not install on usb or sdcard "
Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?
I've tried rebooting and the whole battery removal deal. My sd card is not set to read only. And applications are installed on the phones memory then I move them to my sdcard if I need to.

That is the name of the recovery.
What ROM is your phone using? Like CM7 or Myns WarmZ?
Also, what app are you trying to install and how are you going about installing it?
I noticed this on another site the other day. http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...on-usb-storage-or-sd-card-problem-on-android/
Hope that helps.
That's the exact problem I am having. Problem is, that file is not in my sd card!
How do I find out what rom I'm using? Its not in setting.. about phone.
I can you my phone is rooted using unrevoked, and I have never changed any rom or thing like that... its just been unrevoked (the latest one) and that's it... then I just install apps. So, the default rom?
And the difference between my problem and the one you posted is that All APPLICATIONS CANT BE installed, not just some... but it's the same error, exactly as it appears on that link above.

What program are you using to view your SD card? As the article suggests, use Root Explorer to search for the file. You may not be able to see "hidden" files using other explorers. Root Explorer is the default ninja app. ;+)
As far as "what ROM," if you've only used unrevoked, yes, you're just on the stock "default" ROM, albeit a rooted stock.
I was using esfile explorer and I did select the option to view hidden files but that didn't show me everything, apparently. I know this because I connected my phone to my pc, view the files from there and then I found this stupid file that causes this error.
I didn't have root explorer and obviously couldn't install it because of the issue in was having.
Thanks for the help everyone! Much appreciated.

Hello,
I tried to alter my build.prop so I was able to download incompatible apps, but on reboot, my phone will not turn on. I changed ro.product.model to Galaxy S3, and now my phone will not turn on.
I made a copy of the original build.prop onto my SD card, but have no idea how to put this back into system, to overwrite the one I changed.
Please help,
thanks
Can you get back into recovery?
I apologize if I say anything I don't mean.
Yes, if I hold, volume up, home, and power, i get into the recovery

Nandroid is a backup of your phone. It is something you should do before doing things like changing build.prop and flashing stuff

If you flash the stock rom through Odin....you should be able yo get back to where you were with all your apps and settings in place.....
*This is IF you were on stock touchwiz

Reflash your ROM?
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
Where do I get the stock ROM from to put into ODIN?
Assuming you made a nandroid backup in CWM before changing anything in build.prop (like you always should!), just go in to backup and restore, and hit restore. If not, you have to re-download and reflash your ROM.
EDIT: Here is a stock ROM. Please also read here.
Excellent. That worked.
Do you know how to do what I was originally trying to do? I am unable to download some apps in Google play as they are not compatible with the SGH-I747, and I was trying to change this so Google play seen the phone as a different device allowing me to download the apps.
Thank You for your help
Have you done a search for the apk files? If you can find them you could just side load them.

Yes I have, with no luck
How did you edit it.. most likely you screwed up the.permissions. you also need to edit more than one entry. Look for the thread on getting Google wallet to work. Use root explorer to edit it.

I followed this. But I didnt change it to Nexus S, I changed it to Galaxy S3, thats where I messed up. I am not sure if changing it to Nexus S will work either though?

Hey, guys. I'm looking for some help here. I've been having some trouble with a few recent ROMs. I try to do a full wipe and do a fresh install of the new ROM, but I get an error saying something about being unable to read the lost + found file. I think it was deleted somehow because I can't find it. Does anyone know how to get it back? Can I possibly just reinstall a recovery or something? I don't actually know where the file even comes from to begin with.
Bump. Really needing some help.
Have you tried restoring a nandroid back up?? (If any)
At least you can start your search for a solution with a working phone.

I don't have a recent Nandroid backup at the moment. My last one would take me straight from AOSP 4.3.1 all the way back down to TW 4.1.2 and I just don't like that idea. It's caused me complications before.
File explorer?

Have you tried using a file explorer and looked to /data and in there do you happen to see a folder named lost+found? Suggest using ES File Explorer to look through the contents of your phone.

Weird.. Are the contents of each of them the same?? If thats the case then it may have occurred when flashing roms and an not fully wiping.

When I use ES, they are all blank and say 0b in properties. It always has every time I've looked at them, though and ice only recently had the problem.

So the question is... how do i get my old pictures, files, ringtones etc. that was saved on my phone back after updating from 4.1.2 to 4.3? I tried to go to /device/mnt/shell/emulate? I have nothing there. I've looked all over about this... People mentioned it in threads but didn't go into detail on how to bring all that info back. Please help... I really like 4.3 and want to stay on it. THANKS!

Is there an option or a setting I have to turn on, on ES? The "shell" folder is empty when I go in it. i cant find the emulatefolder either.
Is root browsing enabled?

Did you factory reset with stock recovery before going to 4.3? That would have wiped out your sd card.

Nope, did not factory reset. Heres the weird part. When I jump back and forth from 4.3 to 4.1.2 the file shows up when I'm on 4.1.2. Are the files searchable? I tried searching for them and they don't even show up when I'm on 4.3.

Hello. So as title says I've accidentally deleted stock SamsungCamera.apk from system/app. I had backup of it but after copying it to the system/app folder it doesnt appear as an installed app. Reboot does not help. Any ideas what can I do? Im runing stock ROM.

Did you mount the system. How did you back up it. Using titanium back or any other app.

Flash the stock ROM zip and all will be fine

Permissions need to be 0644 and root access level if I remember correctly.

I remmber seeing Samsung Camera.apk separately on some thread for the phone. You can try searching.. If not unzip and take off the Samsung camera from the Stock and install and make it a system app, Considering some additional files required to make it usable..
