Epic 4G; TW Launcher Forceclose; Applications on SD Card

My current problem is that certain applications, not all, will dissappear after reboot if I move them to the SD Card. These applications continue to work and remain after reboot if I leave them on the phone.
The sequence of events involved a twlauncher forceclose that kept me from using my phone at all. I could do nothing other than boot into Clockwork mod. This happened after my work's Exchange Server certificate expired. Previously I had problems with a forceclose that I used the wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions to correct. I tried wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions several times to try to fix this, but it did not work.
I restored to a previous point on my phone. I had several back up points on my phone: an older one and a new one.
I had done several advanced restores: data, system, boot, to try to get the correct system to work and also to get the most up to date data. At one point, after I restored the boot data from my most recent backup boot restore, all of the applications that were on my SD card dissappeared.
I reinstalled the applications, but when I rebooted the phone, certain ones dissappeared. The applications will work and remain on my phone if I keep them on the phone.
After looking at the forums it seems I could have a problem with the SD card or the file system. The phone seems to work fine otherwise. Although, after I upgraded to CWM 5 and installed ROM manager, I got an error message regarding the first time I restored to an older backup point.
Phone configuration:
SPH-D700
Firmware: 2.3.5
Kernel: 2.6.35.7.nubernel_v0.0.2
Gingerbread.EI22
Clockwork Mod 5 (I was on Clockwork Mod 4 when I did all of the above; after I restored the phone to its current state, I upgraded to clockwork mod 5)
BTW, I would also like to upgrade to Gingerbread EL30, but it appears that I cannot simply flash the new ROM to my phone without restoring to stock ROM to upgrade.

First you can simply flash an FC09 ROM (latest). It is the modem that you need odin for.
Second: back up your sd card to a computer and reformat and restore.

Thanks
I didn't see a "thank you" on the thread, so I will post.

Okay, I thought finding the fc09 ROM would be easy. However, all I have found it The People's Rom and Serncity by Random Kings. Is there a link for the stock fc09 to flash to my phone.

Do you have a tar file so I can Odin.
I did a factory wipe, backed up the sd card, formated the sd card, and then tried to install the zip from the card, but the phone freezes at the Samgsung boot screen and won't go past. I even went and bought a new cable.
I tried to flash ECO5 with Odin, and it rebooted past the Samgun screen. Then I get an error message:
system UIDs Inconsistent" UIDS on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will unstable
After this I tried to get usb storage to connect and when I mount the usb storage, it appears on the computer as drive j, but I cannot do anything with it.
I would really like to have a functioning phone.

Root the phone if you prefer to have it that way. All your issues sounded like data corruption anyhow.
Use Odin to flash the CWM tar file without reboot option checked, battery pull after flash, boot into recovery and flash a FC09 kernel from the dev forum. Lastly you'll just need to install Superuser from the Play Store.

That, or fkash the FC09 prerooted deodexed stock ROM in the dev section.

[Q] Is there any way to completely erase everything from my phone?

I've searched both xda and Google and haven't been able to find anything.
Yesterday, I formatted everything possible via CWM6.0.2.3 (/storage, /data, etc.) and (of course) ended up having to reinstall the stock rom as I've effectively soft-bricked my phone.
After getting everything up and running again, I installed ROM Manager and it said that I still had TWRP still installed. What's more, the stock rom had the wallpaper and lock screen message I'd set up before formatting everything.
I later hooked my phone up to my pc and deleted everything from both internal storage and my sd card, though Windows showed that there was still some data left on the phone. I again did a fresh install of the stock rom and the previous background, message, and TWRP are still there.
I know I'm being a bit nitpicky, but where is this data hidden and how can I delete it?

So if I were to do a full wipe with Odin, what would I check? Flash Lock, Nand Erase All, or T Flash?

Only select Auto-Reboot. There should be a one-click that will prevent disaster. It is right here. Be aware of the 16 vs 32 GB option.

I've tried having Auto-Reboot and F-Time Reset checked and I still have residual files.
After trying the one click method you linked, absolutely nothing changed except I was no longer rooted. Still had same apps, lock screen, wallpaper, etc.

And you've done a factory wipe? What apps are remaining? I guess I should get more specific.

Yes, I've done a factory wipe. All of my apps remain; I still have Chrome, ROM Manager, Nova Launcher, etc.
If I delete everything, everything goes to stock except behind the scene things like TWRP still being installed (according to ROM Manager).

I'm relatively certain I followed the directions properly, and it works as far as getting back to stock. Though in the video he mentions that data wouldn't be wiped and that's what I was aiming for: wiping absolutely everything so that the phone is as when I first got it. No custom recoveries, no saved lockscreen message, nothing.

You may have to manually delete them then.

I have a " RESET_LJ7.zip" that will delete everything including recovery and reset flash counter, but it's a huge file, I'm not home, and I haven't uploaded it anywhere. You can search for that zip file name because I can't remember where I originally found it, or I can upload it tonight for you, it's just a flashable zip

Where are custom recoveries stored? And is there some way for me to access it? I would think right clicking "Phone" from Explorer and hitting "Format" would delete everything, but apparently it doesn't.

No I'm not sure where the recovery is restored, I didn't make the zip I just have a copy of it because I needed it when I returned 2 phones to Sprint Like I said search that name for the zip, and if you still don't find it I'll upload it when home, that could be VERY late though

Here's stock LJ7. I assume you know how to use Odin so here's the file as posted by Skunk Ape1. All credit goes to him.

Oh and also, the files you delete while "formatting" the phone on the computer are only the extra app data (like back-ups and such) and other extra files. Things like recovery are in hidden system files that I believe can only be deleted through a specific clear (like system/data clear in TWRP) or by flashing a complete stock tar through Odin. Well you can also manually delete them but that takes a while.

I couldn't find the .zip via Google nor xda, but don't worry about it. My phone works perfectly fine and I can return to stock well enough. It just bothers me that there seems to be some secret folder/residual data that I can't seem to get rid of ><

That is correct, the recovery is stored on a separate partition from the OS, so you cant clear that just by formatting system and such. Its also best to simply replace it and not clear it, because if you clear it you are completely removing everything from the recovery partition and that may or may not cause issues
@OP, One way you can remove your custom recovery (and replace it with the stock recovery) is by flashing a full stock tar. In the general section there is a thread titled "MA6 OTA!!!", read through there because some people posted links to how to get the stock recovery back on without having to ODIN a full stock tar (they needed to flash the LJ7 to MA6 OTA through the stock recovery)

Ah, thank you so much. The main thing that was bugging me was that I couldn't seem to get rid of CWM and TWRP, but now I know they're hidden.
But I've flashed CWM, TWRP, then went back to CWM and whenever I open Recovery Setup in Rom Manager, it says that both CWM and TWRP are already installed, which is what's bugging me. Rom Manager works just fine and all, but I'm just really curious about why/how I can have two recoveries installed at the same time (I thought flashing one would delete the other).

This is why I hate the dependence that people have built on touch recoveries and recovery controlling apps. It makes people forget that the recovery works like a computer bios. It's not hidden. It's just on its own partition. When you fire it up, it's essentially booting a separate partition so that you can control everything on the main partition and nothing from your rom or kernel are in use at the time.

[Q] [HELP] Bootloop after MB1 Updates.

So I (like an idiot), tried installing the MB1 update without doing a backup first and now my phone is stuck in a boot loop. It gets to the Samsung logo after the sprint animation. I've tried wiping data and the dalvik cache as well as fixing permissions. At this point I think my only option remaining is to reflash everything in odin. Where can I find up the lastest files in the format for odin or does anyone else have any better ideas?

It sounds like you have a custom recovery... is it TWRP or CWM? If it is one of these, what version are you running?
Back to the solution to your problem... If you just want the stock MB1 Rom (rooted), head over to Freeza's thread and download his Rom. It really does wonders. Since you can't turn your phone on, you'll have to download it to your computer and transfer it over to your phone. Here's how you do it:
Boot into recovery, connect to comp with USB cable.
In TWRP, choose "Advanced" Mount and Mount USB. (CWM should be somewhat similar)
Copy the ROM zip over to your phone.
Wipe system, then cache/dalvik.
Flash ROM
Reboot
You will have to go through the phone setup from scratch (no backup), but it's better than a paperweight. Hope this works for you.
Edit: Also, I promised CNexus that I'd link to his OTA sticky thread, where he has done a really good job of summarizing the various steps you can take when you get an OTA update notification

I updated to TWRP 2.4.4.0 to see what's going on. You're right, it's gone. This kind of sucks, since I always held that in my back pocket when flashing Roms. Nothing in their changelog says that they removed the option. Well, you can still copy files using adb, but that's a hassle. Do you have a micro-sd card adapter for your SD card so you can at least copy from your computer for that?

I don't even have a microSD card. I've been flashing from the phone. Using adb is a good idea though. It shouldn't be that hard if I'm moving just one file.

I would double check the md5sum before moving, just in case you had a bad download.

Naddict has a good list of recoveries that are flashable from the recovery itself. Here's a link to the thread. If you do eventually decide to go back to TWRP for your Recovery, I'd recommend using the 2.4.1.0 version, as I have confirmed that it does have USB storage.

Well I realized it too late, but I could have used the adb sideload flashing (like the stock recovery). The inclusion of that is probably why they removed the USB storage option.

[Q] Is my phone fubar? Can't mount /data, internal storage or restore/install a rom

Was running SlimRom stable 7.8 and wanted to try out the Beta3. Wiped Dalvik Cache and Cache and installed on top. Booted fine, moved some files around and rebooted. Bootlooped once and got stuck on the Samsung screen. Pulled battery, booted into TWRP and wiped everything to restore the backup I made before all of this happened. It wipes, restores system and fails on /data. Can't wipe /data or internal storage because it is "Unable to Mount." No matter what I do I cannot mount, modify or access my internal storage and cannot delete or install anything to /data.
Googled and checked these forums half-hazardly for a solution but can't find anything specific to this phone. What happened to my internal storage? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Obviously the battery pull was where things went wrong, I'm just wondering if it's fixable. I can still boot into TWRP no problem and I successfully sideloaded an updated version of TWRP thinking that might help. Thanks in advance
Also, here is the recovery log I pulled right after I tried all of the above-
http://tinyw.in/3asR
I tried sideloading a ROM as well. It got to about 21% and then this showed up, failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)'

It is fixable, you just might have to fully restore the stock firmware with Odin. If you can't flash another rom or restore a backup, i would just Odin it back to stock and start over. This will fix any corruption that may have happened to your partitions.

Ok cool, you're on the right track. If all else fails you can.also grab the stock firmware from here: http://samfirmware.com/, typing SPH-L900 in the search box, and flashing the firmware with Odin. Good luck, you'll get it fixed.

Help with Installing CleanROM.

Hi, I will have my hands on this tablet very soon and want to use the Cleanrom that is listed in a thread here. This will be my first time doing this and have been searching around for a guide. I have read a few bits and pieces but would like someone to explain in a few steps so i can get this right the first time.
I found a guide to Root it at rootgalaxynote.com but would like to understand how to install the CleanROM.

Hello,
You have to install TWRP Recovery first, then you need to copy Rom.zip to storage and then flash it using Recovery, dont forget about Wipe.

All you need is to Install Custom Recovery to change ROM, that will allow you to do anything you want with your device (such as System Backup/Restore, installing .zip packages, and etc.) read thread about TWRP so you can find everything you need to know.
But notice the fact you'll lose your warranty installing custom roms, as I know there is no way to change warranty bit back to 0 yet.
All information you need to know about Custom Roms is already there.

Here you can find TWRP. I would recommend flashing the ".0"version because some people are having problems with the newer one
Worked fine for me , just did the same process as you

Thanks, all i need is Santa to hurry up now lol.

Are you sure you wanna get P600 not P605?

Make sure you get the right version, whether Quality or Exnyos. I had a freeze until I got the right version.

In this guide what is this file for ?
Step 3. Download and unzip P600_Autoroot.zip:

Edit: Should i do this first before the TWPR?

Build says CleanRom 1.0 but all apps are still present
My build says CleanRom 1.0 but I still have all of the apps that others say are removed such as Sketchbook. My note was rooted using the AutoRoot file with Odin and then the stock recovery was flashed. I then used the twrp 3.0 file and booted into recovery. I then installed CleanRom (without reset per instructions) and the device rebooted and everything worked except all of the apps were still there. I then tried to re-flash CleanRom and perform the wipe but I then got stuck on the Samsung splash screen to no avail. I booted into recovery and tried re-flashing the CleanRom zip to no avail. All I could do to get this thing booted was to flash the auto-root file again in Odin, re-flash twrp, and install cleanrom again from the recovery but all of the apps are still there. Before I did any of this I had a bunch of the bloatware either frozen or uninstalled in Titanium but now some of those apps show lines through them in TBP. Either way, my device is showing CleanRom 1.0 under the build but I really don't think it is... any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi i'm a newbie on android
i've tried to install this rom a lot of time but unsuccessfully at any time
i've tried all the solutions i found here but none were successfull
i am under TWRP 2.6.3.0
my tablet is rooted but after the rom flash ,when i reboot ,just after the "galaxy note edition 2014" logo there's a black screen
the only way to repair is to flash with the mk1 stock rom after or to restore my old version saved with TWRP
can someone help ?
thanks

Before flashing your rom perform a factory reset in twrp and format /data. All your apps will be deleted and you should be fine if you are stuck on the samsung boot logo it might help to boot into recovery and format /cache and dalvik cache

So, I did the factory reset in twrp and then formatted the data. Naturally, everything was lost but when I went to install CleanRom it was no longer on the internal memory due to the format... but I did copy it to the Ext SD Card. MY problem is that twrp won't install the zip from the sd card. Each time it says its unable to mount "/data" even though I'm going into "advanced settings" and placing the check mark. I re-flashed twrp and tried using file manager to move the file to the internal storage but came up with the same problem. Also, I can't place the check on mount data for some reason. Now, my tablet starts to boot up but hangs on the samsung screen before the boot animation. Basically, its like there isn't any firmware on it and I tried re-doing the auto-root and stock recovery but thats a no go as well. Is this thing toasted?

Boot into TWRP and click "Restore Back Up" (Cannot remember exact verbiage) . Find where it says internal storage and press it and it will switch to a drop down and you can choose "External SD" Then go back and and it should be going to External SD instead of internal SD when you select install
Make sure you factory re-set. For safety, I advance wipe but I don't think that is necessary.
You may need to re-flash recovery if you're unable to access it.

Your device is not toasted I always have the Rom zip on the root directory of the device so formatting /data will not affect the rom zip. If you cant get it working then you might need to flash a firmware via odin and after that copy the rom on the internal root directory. Resetting your device should not format the whole internal storage so you can install the rom afterwards. Good luck mate

After the holiday (and many stressful attempts) I was finally able to re-boot the device and get past the splash screen. Opening Kies seemed to "kick" past the splash screen even though it said my device wasn't compatible with Kies. Anyway, I flashed the stock recovery, wiped, reset, flashed original firmware via Odin, flashed TWRP again, and then installed the CleanRom zip. Phew... it's FINALLY over with no issues and running smooth. I think the problem came in with TWRP not wiping correctly even though it said it did. I do appreciate all of the help and advice as you guys are life-savers!

Exnyos?

When I installed with TWRP 2.6.3.3 & 2.6.3.1 I got the write permission denied and then I tried with 2.6.3.0 it got hung while installing CleanRom 1.5R2. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Thanks
