[ask] Some Icons & Wallpaper Gone When Phone Reboot - Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
After I unlocked and root my devices, I moved some app to my ext_sd card. Then the problem started. Everytime I reboot my phone, I got some of icons are gone (since they're located in ext_sd card). Also, I lost my wallpaper too, it reset to default.
It's a little annoying to set back the icon to the place where it should be.
Help... :victory:

This apparently happens because of restrictions in writing to SD and init.d support. the least you should do is to flash this patch. hopefully it will be taken care of.

Android boot problems

I have the T-mobile touch pro 2. when i try to boot it, it says directory does not exist. I downloaded the 10/4 one i think. It's the latest blazin one.
Did you format your SD card first? Did you make sure you installed the CAB to your SD? Also, questions like this should go in the Project Android thread.
it is on the SD but it was not formatted. Is it necessary to format?

Not always, but it couldn't hurt. All of those 1's and 0's get confused
Alright lol. Ill try formatting it and if it doesn't work I'll post here again
Also if you are from germany and use this android updater:
you need to edit the path from "storage card/andboot" to "speicherkarte/andboot"
it worked for a couple of days, now...i have the same "directory does not exist" problem.
what may have happened?
i can not format the card, because i have to much information on it. anything else?

Eh, something's bungled. You can try deleting (moving, renaming) your data.img, and you know it's possible to copy the data off the card, format it, and copy the data back on to the card, right!??!
Android's still kinda fickle, as this project is still very experimental and changing very quickly. I'm hoping to get to the level that the Vogue got to, but that took a VERY long time!

THIS startup utility.
I installed the startup utility. Wierd thing is, Android worked a lot better before i installed this. The speaker worked, games ran faster, and the whole phone was better.

You can feel free to revert to your previous setup, which I assumed never worked. You'll have to actually sort out how you broke it tho, unless you just do a fresh install of a clean build from the archives.
Alright, whenever there is a new update for the Android, the android on my phone totally crashes. It doesn't boot after even if I update. The only way to totally fix it is to redownload and install it.

I wouldn't use the update utility, it causes issues. I manually update, and it always works.

How does it 'totally crash'? Does it do the rhod100 thing of the HaRET loading indicator getting to the end then nothing happens, does it crash during the boot text, or does it crash somewhere else?

Phone storage all used.

Hi all. Got a problem with my One X where it seems something is using all my storage space.
Has anyone seen this before? Easy fix? Going to move to a different Rom soon but this is crippling my phone until I move. Will post my current Rom in a follow up.
Villan Rom 1.1.1 is what I'm running.

Known problem prior to 1.29.401.11 (or equivalent). If your base is same or newer, just copy the data off the phone, format SD Card and copy it back on.
Ok thanks BenPope. Will give that a try.

Yup. It's a known issue that HTC has fixed in their updates Just copy everything from your SD, format it through the phone options, then copy everything back. It's an issue where files aren;t "really" deleted, hence still taking the space that should have been freed.
Sorry for the late reply to this. Where can I get the base files from?
You can use MIUI rom,but it's not android 4.1

Lollipop update issues

So a friend of mine updated his G3 to lollipop and he's facing two main issues:
Settings isn't opening at all. It FC's right when you open it
Messages app also force closes many times
the most annoying problem: Alarm if set, phone only vibrates no matter even if sound is set to full.
And force closes of apps frequently.
Can you borrow his phone and reflash everything with a fresh download from one of the XDA threads? Perhaps it was a bad flash?

He didn't flash, he updated OTA and I think I can, he's pretty busy person though.
Was looking for a more easy solution.
Yeah well it still has some degree of flashing I think. Just try a factory reset to stay on the safe side. Then alternately try reflashing. A factory reset shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes.

Just take out the SD card. I dont think it would. I haven't had this phone for long but I dont see why it would do that. It hasn't for any of my other phones.

Device dead and reboot

Hey guys, first i come from VN and my English is not good. Hope everyone can understand.
My device sometimes stop working then auto reboot. The screen auto off and about 3-4 second the led turn red color and the screen turn on then screen blur little with some blur stripe and it auto boot. It's make me scare :"( do you have same problem and what can we do to stop it?
My device still work ok but sometimes this happen.
Thanks.
Try factory reset, otherwise you need to send the device for repair. I do not have any issue with my Z5 the only issue I had was when my MicroSD card stop working (could not write to it could only read) and my device rebooted and slowed down. I replaced my MicroSD card and everything is great since then.

I'm 99% sure the reason is that you install custom firmware and xposed module, but mess something up... as a result you get a lot of garbage in System UI and Launcher UI settings.
The common reason of reboots is lag in framework which controlls OVERHEATING...device think that CPU temp is critical and reboots.
So if you are scared about this, my advice is to install clean STOCK firmware,
p.s. but installing of xposed module is fixed already and you can find very detailed guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/workaround-bootloops-xposed-lollipop-t3089203
and the part of it you need is

Anybody who is still having any kind of issues, for whatever reason, please do the following:
get into TWRP;
install, in this order, without rebooting:
xposed-uninstall-v1.1.zip
If you don't have an sd card, you'll need to reboot once after the uninstall .zip, boot the system normally, then get back in the recovery and install the other 3. This only applies to people who don't use an SD card
xzdr-busybox-enable-v1.0.zip
xposed-sdk21-arm-date.zip
xposed-leakplug-v1.2.zip
copy the logs to the PC, over USB:
uninstall_xposed.log
install_busybox.log
install_leakplug.log
each of the 3 zip's will tell you where it saved the log (it's usually the external sdcard)
reboot to system
Thanks in advance for not asking any questions about whether you have to do any of these steps; yes, you have to.
Easy
Cheers

Dear Sir, im very happy with your's help, everytime i flash Aroma Rom, everytime i have this problem @@ when i used flashtool to flash stock FW .170 My device clearly and this problem not happened @@

htc 10 deleted itself

Hello, my phone just deleted itself after it restarted itself.. i have ICE ROM and it never happened before. I didnt make backup with twrp recovery before so i couldnt recover it. Is there any chance to bring it back? It restarted somehow in thr twrp recovery mode and automatically wiped. Thanks for help.
It also somehow deleted my SD card. Is it even possible? Lost 1,1k photos and 1.2+k songs. Holy mother.
Okay so now i know the reason. My loveky GF accidentaly removed my phone from the google account and it forced my phone to delete itself. Is there any chance that i can return it back to normal?

What was on your SD is probably gone forever. You don't use Google Photos to back up pics? Unlimited storage there.
Run the appropriate RUU for your device, and when you sign in to Google you should be able to restore it back to what is was, more or less. Photos and songs will probably be gone though.

RUU is ROM Update Utility.
What does it say next to "OS" in download mode? With that info I could direct you to the proper RUU for your device.

I have the idea his OS still works but all info is gone. As he says he signed into Google and nothing happened. I might misinterpreted that part. Maybe the OP can shine a light on that particular part.

Now i am still a bit confused. Does your phone boot into a working OS ? I'm asking this because xunholy is giving the option to perform a RUU which isn't necessary if the phone still works.
I actually flashed LeeDroid rom now and it works.
