I ve been in a serious mess. I just rebooted my phone yesterday and my wallpaper screen icons, phone settings got reset. Opened whatsapp and boom! it took me to the 1st time start page (you have custom ROM installed and blablabla). I realized that all of my manually installed apps data got reset. I was on Resurrection Remix-M v5.7.4-Armani [29/10]. Whats worse, the whatsapp database folder (internal memory) also was missing so i lost all my whatsapp messages. but other folders are intact such as whatsapp media, my camera pics and other things.
But thats not the only rom I ve had issues, reset also happened when I was on 2nd release on cm14 by guneet. and on some other ROM which I dont remember
Completely confused. Storage gone bad? any help would be appriciated! I dont want to backup my phone everyday!

Hi guys writing on this forum is now my last resort in the hopes may be someone has an idea what the hell is actually going on, my desire hd has been causing problems where when i update any of my apps they get stuck on installing, then i try to wipe the market data and cache but the whole system gets stuck on computing so i cant do anything, when i reboot the phone, the apps go away, all the sd apps dont appear, and the system still says computing for all the apps.....ive tried everything, i noticed when all this was going the android secure folder had some.-2 extensions although they werent duplicates so i moved all apps to internal storage, deleted the android secure folder and moved them all back, so they all had -1 extensions, phone worked fine for about 2 months until yesterday, was updating an app on 3g and it got stuck in the installing phase, computing came back, rebooted phone, no help, shutdown phone and back on again and all the apps were then read, took time to clear the mqrket data and cache, went to root explorer since i had stored it on phone storage, went to mnt, .asec and all the apps had the -1 extension, so now i dont know what to do....
Its a nightmare, cant update and everytime the apps do come back after repeated switching on and off of the phone, everytime i try to update an app it gets stuck on installing and computing comes back.....its wierd cuz ive changed the sd card, moved all apps from phone atorage to sd but the problems still there....right now i cant asses the sd apps, ill try rebooting and see of they come back again....ive backed manually all the android secure folder apps on my computer, ive noticed something wierd, when i move batch of 10 apps from computer to phone they are read fine and come up on the phone, i keep doing this in steps, manually mounting and then unmounting the sd card till all my apps qre transfered to the android secure folder and all are read just fine by the phone, but as soon as i do a reboot they all dissapear again, ive also noticed that when apps are working perfect they are located in the mnt, .asec directory when i view em theough root explorer, but when i the apps are not being read like right now they are located in the mnt, staging, .asec directory
Im sorry guys for the lengthy explanation but wanted to give as much information as possible, i guess what im saying is when i do manage to get my sd apps working by repeated rebooting of phone, everytime i try to update an app it gets stuck on installing and computing comes back so the whole process of reboot starts all over again, as that is the only way i can get the sd apps back....
Any help would be appreciated, thanks for the patience in reading all this, oh when the phone did work fine during the last 2 months, the only way i kept it going was because everytime i updated an app the ext-2 appeared on it, so i had to move it to phone and then back to sd card, i dont know if the -2 ext appearing is normal everytime u update an app but since i had exams going on i had to keep the phone working so i never took a chance of updating an app that was already on the -2 ext, but now i guess none of the apps are and the problems back for some reason...
Please ask questiona if this is gettin a whole lot confusing for some
any ideas
Guessing no one knows what i might be talking about then, any ideas would be helpful guys...

OK the -2 just means there was already an app there when it updated. If you uninstall the app and reinstall it then it will be a -1 app again. From your first post it looks like you have alot of apps on your SD card? What calss is your SD card? Have you tried starting from scratch and reunstalling the apps from the market one by one to see it one app is causing the issue? From the statement about computing I would try a greasy start all together. Full wipe and reinstall the rom. Then your apps one by one. Will it be long? Yeah but its then only way to slim it down and find the issue.
thanks
Thabks zelendel, that really helped, strange that its happening, only some of the apps are giving e this problem, i just unistalled all the -2 and have reinstalled them, ill keep u updated if the problem goes away, im sure its cuz of the -2 s the app stalls and multiple reboots are needed to get them working again...whereas factory reset goes, oh boy thats gona be a long one, lets see how this one goes, ill keep u updated, and thanks again for all the help...
A few days ago I asked how to get more memory on my desire, I was using the ICS beta rom, after trying out a few things that were suggested I now cannot use the phone at all without this message of "x" process has crashed normally contacts or calendar which is then followed by process.android.accore has crashed. This seems to be a system failure but I do not have a clue why. Can anyone help me out?
Thanks
mate all i can say is wipe and reinstall , this sometimes happens did u try Titanium backup to move contacts storage or phone storage to SD , Or something similar
so last night all of a sudden my ext sd card became unusable. Wasnt doing anything unusual, just put a new playlist on it....I removed it, inserted it, shut down, wiped caches, factory wiped, put in a different one (which phone read fine), then all of sudden it just started to work. Flashed to my backed up ROM and everything is fine...so this morning I get a MMS from a friend and there is a little button that says download. Never seen this before, but everytime i press is changes to downloading, then fails .So back to wiping, re installing gapps,used tweakker app,etc. All settings are fine. Cannot download MMS!!!?? I installed Go SMS and it works fine! no issues... so whats the problem?
Possibly not connected to the sd card in anyway but maybe?
arghhhh, so dumb!

Thank you!
I've been having a very odd bug that started to occur today.
Whenever I restart my phone, battery pull, or turn it off and on it resets to Jan 1st at 7:00pm. Some apps are not working, including BBM (msgs don't attempt to send), Snapchat (gives me a "Google Play not supported by device" notification), and Google Play (no connection error).
Because my phone is "in the past", whenever I send or receive texts they do not appear on the message log due to their time stamps being in the future (I assume so).
What should I do? Should I wipe and re-root. I'm running Liquid Smooth JB 4.2 ROM and have been for nearly 6 months for no issues. I wouldn't expect it to be the ROM.
Another thing, If I do wipe and re-root, how would I completely wipe everything minus the core things? Let me elaborate: I've been having a problem caused by CWM where it is creating multiple "0" folders (which are created to store all the files every time I install a new ROM). I think it's at about 7 files deep now due to switching ROMs daily about 6 months ago. This leads to a very messy internal SD with files all over the place. How would I fix this so it goes back to the normal file structure, pre-root? Do I have to go delete the files by hand on via my PC?
Another thing, what method is recommended to save my People contacts, messages, app data, etc (preferably on an external back up: PC or external SD)?
Thanks in advance!
so, I have a SGN2 N-7100 rooted! last week I noticed that the built in gallery and music player they didnt show the files which was in my sd card! when I took a new photo BAAM it was showing but not the old photos

Which rom/os you are using? Either your problem is not about hardware. Check the file properties if they're System Protected (Windows), these files mostly won't shown in phone, this is said to be virus problem. Which is the company of your memory card? Because cheap mc's from unknown vendors can cause such problem!

I don't think that Linux<>Android really needs a antivirus and it is useful for scan a virus, I'm talking about your PC's or Lappie's if & only if it's windows in case you've you've had plugged?
