new sd Card Copied, Now all apps are gone??

I got a new Sd Card. Searched and folled instructions.
1. Turn off phone, copy sd card to temp folder on computer.
2. Copy temp folder contents to new sd card.
3. put sd card back into phone
4. turn on
Did all this, now my launcher is gone, and all my apps are gone. I check phones memory and the memory shows that a ton of stuff is installed, but i cant see it in the app drawer.
Any idea whats up?
Fresh Evo 4.1.1.

Well for the launcher especially, have you tried moving it to internal memory, or restoring with titanium backup?

All of my apps WERE internal memory...
If i go to internal storage, i can see all of the apps listed there. but they are greyed out.
I didnt do a titanium backup, just because i didnt think swaping an sd card was an issue. Even putting my old card in doesnt fix the issue

I am going to advise looking at this...BAM > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695243
Have you tried rebooting?

The sd card is recognized. That isnt the issue. The issue is that all of my apps, settings, and such in the Internal memory are no longer recognized. they are there. i can see them in the sd card and storage section of settings, but they will not run.
I tried running Amon_ra UID mismatch, and Ext fix.

It shouldn't, could just be a small slight random bug.

Are you able to move the apps to the sd card? Use titanium backup to do so, but only move user apps, and see if that works or does anything.

weird issue arises... When i try to re-download and install an app that i once had, launcher Pro, i get an error stating incompatable software version...
Also, titanium backup lists all of the apps that are missing, but they have a strikeout line through them.

That's awkward, let me think, and for titanium backup, have you tried running 'problems'?

yep... even in hopes of fixing this i bought the titanium full key.... still no luck

What exactly happened in AAHK? What have you done since rooting - for example, have you installed a custom ROM?

If you want someone to help you need to give detailed list of what you did and what messages have been output.

Hack Kit does not mess sdcards, so yours should have been bad before, or maybe the contacts in the device are not ok. Have you tried formatting the sdcard?
That might happen if you improperly unmount it. Have you unmount it from the device, take it off and put it back, choosing to eject it from the menu?

That is really not a good attitude to have here.
Oops, thanked you; definitely on accident.
Format the card. If that doesn't work get a new one. Yours might be corrupted.

Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app

I will persist...
So it sounds like you managed to root your phone successfully then using the Ace kit. Do you install a new custom ROM as well or just go back to your original one?
If the Hack kit worked your SD card should work fine as it turns it into a gold card. If the SD card was damaged it should have flagged it up during the Ace Hack kit installation.
Turn off you phone, take the SD card out and clean the contacts. Put it back in and restart the phone and see what happens?
If that doesnt work format your SD card or get a new one. They are pretty cheap these days.

sry i was kinda pissed off
anyways..

My HTC Desire HD corrupt every sd card that i put inside the whole. How to fix this problem. I'm worry about it because i cannot use the camera or to download any video. SD Card require for all downloads. In the PC shows removable disc but when i want to format it shows "enter the disc".

How are you removing your sdcards? Are you dismounting them properly? Try formatting it from the phone instead of the PC.

I already tried everything. From phone cannot format the sd Card. The option is to format it but when i make this option, it wont formatted. Remains only trying but nothing happens. The only thing that I will try is to root the phone.

You need a working sdcard to root the phone. I would advise that you try a new card.

[Q] Running out of Space, Symlinks and Installing Apps to SDcard

Due to size limitations (GPads only coming in 16gb varieties) I am beginning to run low on space on my Gpad (v500 running cm11). However I have a 64gb microSD card and I would like to use this as much as I can to conserve space on the internal memory.
There are a few ways to solve this but I not fully know how to do this.
Firstly, is it possible install apps to microSD card? If so, how? I know some devices support this and some do not. My phone for example does not but I have heard that some people have had success with this.
Next, there are some rather large folders on my internal storage that I would like move to my sdcard however the apps that use those folder can only read them where they are currently located (cmupdates, ebooks, etc).
I read about symlinks and managed to make a few but the only place I was able to make a symlink was to /data/media/0. But the changes to that do not show up the apps which I believe read either /sdcard or /storage/emulated/0. And for my SDcard I can get to it either in /mnt/media/sdcard1 or through /storage/sdcard1.
I tried and succeeded in making a link between /mnt/media/sdcard1/eBooks and /data/media/0/eBooks however the link does not show up in /sdcard or /storage/emulated/0 and it does not show up in the apps, leading me to believe that is where the apps read the sdcard from.
If anyone can answer the above two questions or give any other suggestions for maximizing available space on my internal card please let me know.
Thank you!

I think most of your issues could be resolved with Link2SD (under 10 posts, can't post a link to Google Play).

You can also use an app called Foldermount. It's only $.99 ( if I recall correctly) for the unlocked version. This allows you to move any folder to SD card. I like it as it guides you thru the way and will move the data for you as well. Latest version has been updated to allow apps from play store to install properly. Well worth the $1 price.

Thanks guys! Looks like using these two combined I can get exactly what I wanted. I'll use link2SD to put apps on the SD card and Foldermount to move the other folders I want moved.
Thanks again!

Can you let me know if this works for you? I can't get mine to read or write my SD card at all! I can't even move a picture from my Box cloud account to the SD card. Are you experiencing this? Or did I get a bad unit?

These solutions did work for me, I am still tweaking to get it the way I like it especially since every time I update my Rom Link2SD has to generate new scripts. I can ready and write to the SD card just fine and I could before I started using this as well. I am not sure why you aren't able to write to your sd card. Could it be a bad SD card? Try plugging it into your computer.

I've tried 2 different SD cards both of which I can move files to and from on my computer. So I know it's not the card. I'm thinking maybe I should exchange it out for another day one...

Probably... That sounds like a device issue not card.

How are the cards formatted?
The ROM you are using may not support the format.

I'm not sure I just put the card in my computer and clicked format SD card. I'm not rooted or running any special ROM, it's completely stock out've the box.

Well, if you did it from your PC, it may be formatted NTFS, and you need them formatted FAT 32. Get it here; http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html Not only allows formatting almost any format xFAT, Fat32, NTFS, etc.. and you can partition them also which is not supported by Windows, but IS supported by most Android ROMs. I doubt there is anything wrong with your device.

Thanks for the tip, this makes me feel a little better about my purchase, I'll give it a try. I'm also thinking of buying a 64gb San Disk card and hopefully it will just work with a brand new one.

I have been trying to fix the issue with Rom updates and link2sd. You have to provide the Rom (in my case cyanogenmod) a backup script so it can back up the files. I am planning on figuring it out at some point but if you get it before I do would you mind posting your script? Thanks!

So a follow up with this, I was able to get a script working. I don't know if this feature is unique to cyanogenmod or not but any script in /system/addon.d will execute itself during a rom install and be restored automatically if it was wiped. So using 50-cm.sh as an example I made a script called 11-link2sd.sh to perform the backup of the mount script for link2sd which is located in /system/etc/init.d/11link2sd.
I then had insert this script and my mount script into a cyanogenmod update and flash it in. But after that I tried flashing an update of cm11 to test it and it worked! Attached is my script which should also work for anyone who is able to flash it into their /system/addon.d folder.

[Q] SD Card as main/default storage

Hi, can I use SD Card as default storage? How? I have a 64 GB SD Card, but every App/Games data is in external storage(which have only 10 GB, and now it is full), when I move Android folder from external storage to SD card, every game stops working, because can't find data and try downloading it again to external storage. I try several app for moving to the SD card, but without luck, Is there any solution? Thank you.

app removed sorry

Why would you think that just moving an app's data would be okay? How on earth would the app know where you moved its files to?
Have you tried Apps2SD?

Yes, without luck. I move it to the SD card, but its same as when I do it with file explorer, game canť find data and trying downloading it again..

Are you running a custom ROM? I thought from your signature you were on Viper. Then I realized its not a Viper version number (7.0.0) that applies to this phone.
I think the SD card fix needs to be applied for Apps2SD to work, but most (if not all) custom ROMs should already have the SD card fix implemented.

What are you using on your PC to format your SD? I always use this, and have never had any problems with it. It is free, so you might as well give it a try.

Is there a "Read/Write" switch on the SD Card? Check on the side of the card, maybe it's placed into Read-only which prevents you from formatting/writing to it
That is "IF" it has one that is...

I can't say anything about the RAMDUMP never did that so I don't know what it's supposed to do or what it does to SD Card.
Maybe try to see if you can get it formatted on a Linux system? But even downloading a live disk is still a lot of trouble to go through just to format a card
I thought maybe it could just have been write protection on the adapter that came with the SD Card. The small card itself won't have it but the adapter that you get with the card has the switch.
