Do a clean install of the rom again. Are you saving the pictures to your external SD card or to the phone internal storage.

Only thing I can think of is that your SD card might be bad and you need a new one.

[Q] Ext SD card

I have a question regarding the external SD card. My applications wont run and it says error while launching application. And when I connect it via usb, the selection appears for kies, media, and mass storage. If i choose media, it will show on my computer, but if i choose mass storage, it just goes back to my home screen. I am really buffed because i can browse the contents of the SD card if i use the internal file manager.
I would appreciate the help...

You could just get another copy of tb from the market... But wiping your caches(and fixing permissions) won't effect your sd card or any data on it.
The only time I had a issue like this required me to re-format my sd...
Were you using some sort of app 2 sd? Perhaps you put a partition on it? What rom? Help us help you

After formatting and returning the files back to SD card, the error still persist... Will this error disappear if i flash to GB?
Do you have the option of mounting/un-mounting your card or does it just say mount SD? If it only says mount SD then your card is gone.

it does have unmount option. I can also see the disk spaces and also i can browse the files with the stock file browser. Bt, im now running GB 2.3.6 and still I am experiencing the problem... formatting did not fix the problem...
When you formatted it on the PC was it set as primary?
Were you trying to update your ROM by saving your apps on the sd card then reloading them onto 2.3.6? I was wondering about doing this. Maybe gingerbread and froyo read apk's differently, and if they are already installed on sd card I could see problems arising. Never worked when I tried that with any windows formatting

My first hand experience yesterday was not very successul because my SD Card is acting strangely coz it did run some apps on the new rom and the others shows error while launching. I'm on the process of reflashing and i'll post update once i'm done and run some tests...

Format the sdcard in fat32. Maybe your sd is 64GB exFat that needs a special kernel support

Thank you for your reply. The volume of my SD card is 16GB in FAT32 format. Mentioned problems may include with the right of permission to beyond read only mode and setting of android system. Because the photo records is taken by internal machine that can be set to store in external SD card. This kinds of problem have already occurred in Samsung several series machine. Meanwhile, this is a complicated problem beyond my limited knowledge. Anyway, thank a lots:laugh:
Root your phone.
Install Folder Mount.
Move everything to SD.

Thank you for reply. I have rooted my machine already and trying this right now. But would like to know that except this method. Any method could save data (i.e. photos, installed app and media) to external SD card freely? Just like using of App 2 SD. And then, any method to get the right of permission to beyond read only mode and setting of android system? I would like to fix this problem completely and let it return to S II mode. Anyway thank you very much :laugh:
For the moment i don't think there is a way to move apps to SD. Only link 2 sd
Sent from my GT-I9105P Hypervitaminized
Well Folder Mount isn't free.
And Apps to SD didn't work for me. Neither did Link 2 Sd work until I created a partition on my SD card (later I removed the partition as I didn't want to spoil my new card and its performance).
You can install apps on internal and then later on move it freely to SD card. It would move all data folder.
I'm doing this and I have rooted phone with stock rom.

Phone isn't recognizing your SD card. Try moving all it's contents to a different storage like a computer and reformat the SD.

I do not have a memory card in phone other than the internal memory. Does the internal memory need to be reformatted? When view how much storage it shows 12gb both on the phone and plug into the pc. If it does need reformatted which way should I go with that? Odin, CWM, etc..?

Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I attached the pictures is not the sim card icon. No sim card is in it either.
If there's no SIM card installed, then it makes sense for that error icon to show up if it's the "No SIM" error icon.
anyone else want to take a guess? I put a sim card in the board and it active, the icon is still there...
