Have you checked if SD Maid is compatible with Android 5.0? Maybe that is the problem

So i decied to go to carbon rom because my phone has been acting strange, YouTube would keep resigning in everything i would launch it, Random crashed and freezes and has just been acting up for no good reason. I was running CM 10.1 nightly and dont apply ant mods to it or anything like that becuase i like it simple.
When i flashed the rom i did it with gapps but they were not intalled when i boot, all i got was my SIM pin popup like i usualy get. So i re-flashed gapps and still no luck. So i said f*** it and found another build of it and copyed it to my SD Card and was going to flash it. Like i allways do i went to factory reset and all i got was a long log of cant remove lost+found and same happed when i tryed to wipe the system. and that didnt look good so i pulled the battery and booted recovery with the key press and it would get to teamwin screen but would reboot. Opened oden on my desktop, reflashed teamwin tar and that didnt help it. So i was lucky that i loaded the rom and i rebooted to recovery and am copying all my /data/media to a sdcard that i have
So can anyone give me some links to the 16GB PIT and all that jazz so i can get thing back up and running
And no i am not a n00b becasue i have been working with android and other phones long enough to know what i am doing

EDIT: I've decided to post this in an SGS3 forum instead. Can you please delete this thread? Thanks.
Hello, I'm having an issue with my Galaxy S3. I made a backup today before updating and I also reformated and wiped my phone completely. I tried restoring from Carbon (from internal and sd memory, I copied off of the computer) and at first from the SD card it worked, then it stopped. It didn't work anymore. It just got stuck at restoring. I uninstalled the app, cleared cache, restarted, even recopied all the data again. The data that previously had copied, stopped when I tried to restore again. It just gets stuck at restoring. Then if I leave it it says that it had sent a log to the developer. What can I do? I want to restore my data :-\. I'm not rooted. Just using stock Android latest build from DBT.
Any ideas? Please! I can't figure this one out :-\.
Thanks in advance.
Hey guys. Forgive my noobity but I could do with some help and might have a unique problem although I dare say someone has had this or similar.
Firstly, after putting a 64GB stick in my tablet the other day, it all went badly wrong. I had done it before with my previous 64GB that had been playing up so I sent it back and got a new one. The new one seems to be where it all went pear shaped. I might add, the 64GB is for my phone really but my phone cam was playing up so I was swapping it over and stuff... anyway the card itself seems fine in my phone.
Anyways... now my ampe tablet is suffering some strange effects that have changed. initially it would not boot up unless I redone it with the official firmware.. but then wouldn't boot up again, unless I did the same thing over and over. then one time it just refused to boot up past the initial boot screen. I gave up for weeks then picked it up again two days ago.
Now I give it the firmware installed using pheonix again and it booted up. Ahh I thought... lets play. Now I plug it into the pc but the pc says I need to format the 5GB internal partition. So I did. I then looked how to fix the fact that the tab still says it has 0.00kbs internal storage in settings. Then after a while it came up saying 5GB so i copied some files onto it.. great. But I still can't install apps as I found when trying to do this tested working fix http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJlpek6w624
I then read about using android commander to move busybox from xbin to bin in the system folder but mine is already there.
So now I am stuck. I can't test if my tab is rooted for the youtube link fix above although this is what I said to Nayeem on youtube:
================
Hi Nayeem. I'm really struggling with this. At first my tab was staying at the 2nd initial boot up screen after I put in a 64GB SD card. Using pheonix I managed to get it to boot by reinstalling the updated official rom from szampe but every reboot back to square one. I left it alone for weeks and came back to it, reinstalled the factory rom again and now it will boot up everytime but it has factory reset every time. I cant run the apps you supply for some reason. Everytime I have rebooted the tab, and connected back to pc it says I need to format the internal 5GB partition. I don't know if I have rooted it properly as I can't check. The commands you give above, work as it changes the location proven when I 'get' it. I'm really stumped. I'm trying out a method someone said about moving busybox from sys/xbin to sys/bin but it's already there (using android commander) so I am really stumped now. When I format the partition, it allows me to copy files to it.
================
So far I am stuck with boot up being a factory reset and the partition needs formatting and although the tablet seems a little laggy, everything I have tried works including wifi and incoming email alerts after logging into google account for playstore but no apps will install or update. the best warning I get is there is no memory to install anything and Nayeems method of moving the install location to the sd card seems to work but nothing will install still saying NOT INSTALLED when I try.
Sorry for the long winded thing but I am really new to all of this.
My hat is off to you if you read all of this and can offer a solution so i can give this tablet back to the kids.
Do you have an installed recovery
Try installing a recovery and wipe data and cache. If it does not work u have to repartition ur tablet

I am gonna look into this tonight and see what I can find out. I really don't know exactly what I am doing outside of getting pheonix up and sending a standard rom back to it as previously mentioned.
How would I repartition it ? Sounds stupid asking as i can build pcs... just want to make sure I am doing the correct method.
Hi guys, I just registered @ xda because it looks like it's the only serious and feedback active community available. In 10 minutes I found most of the info I was looking for, but I still want to make sure what Im planning to do is fine before I mess up again. Here's the issue:
I was fooling around with the tablet and had just rooted it so I could get rid of some bloatware, and decided to go further and install cyanogen, just for the looks. So I got this thing cm-10.1-20130411-EXPERIMENTAL-p3110-M3 from the official site, which was I put on a folder inside the tablets storage (not on the 16gb SDcard it had in it). I downloaded Rom Manager and skipped through the "search and download rom" and went for the option of looking for it inside the SD card. I had the Backup options and the wipe cache and data ON.
So I proceeded and it booted, started to do the backup and at some final point it had an error, something like "could not backup Data!". I had the options of rebooting, some other stuff and the option of installing a rom from the SD Card. I went for it and searched for the .zip inside the storage, and installed it. It did it withouth trouble, and when it finishd it prompted me to install an update, which I didn't (don't know why).
Then, I went for the reeboot option and when it started I get the normal samsung's black screen with the device's name on it, but then I get a fast glitching image that sweeps through the screen and the cyanogen startup logo which gets stuck for ever.

Now Im past it, I can get to download or recovery mode, so I moved onto getting the original firmware so I can clean-install again. I got it from sammobile, chose the one belonging to Chile (that's where I got the tablet), and it's 729mb of data. The tablet is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3110
If I flash it with Odin will everything be fine? All I have to do is that thing in downloadmode when I rooted it, but with that 729mb file? Should I put it in the external SD or is it more convenient to place it in the internal storage?
I appreciate your help in advance, I know this is as basic as it gets but messing up again would cost me dearly, since I have to do other stuff.
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1900055 read here, all the information you will need.
It's fine to flash through odin, you will back at stock provided you don't overlook small details and do exactly like the way it is shown. Don't worry, Don't panic. Just be careful to use the files meant for your device only. Second be extra careful when you are dealing with kernel file, pit file or reparation in odin in future.
Third, get root and custom recovery,twrp.
Fourth, after your device start running take backup from twrp recovery. That will save you from most of the trouble.
Most of the details and instructions are already here

hey thanks a lot, im feeling better ow. There's just one issue left: I cant download the original firmware (it's 699mb, and the download keeps stopping midway through it). What happens if I go into clockwork recovery mode and do a factory reset? would that bring me to the original OS? Im kinda scared of downloading an erroneous file again.
EDIT: im doing a factory reset and then flashing this rom called AOSP Project Android 5.1.1 Lollipop on Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3110 which is a 161mb file. Will that work?

Factory reset is just clearing data and cache, if you have made changes in kernel or system, factory reset won't reset them, in your case, system has been altered so you will have to format system, then flash the new rom. If you were on jelly bean stock, you are good to flash it.

You guys have helped me a lot. I've worked everything out and now i've got to reinstalling android on it, AOSP's 5.1.1 Lollipop. It's beautiful. There's just one problem: Since it came with no apps at all, I wanted to install everything on it again. Problem is, when I go to google play, it shows that i've already got my apps installed, so it wont let me download them, and it doesn't matter if I place the APK's inside the tablet as there's no manager to open them. Even if I download apk's through the tablet's own web browser, it says it can't open the file. Any ideas on this?
Hello everyone
I broke my phone so I took one of my friend's old Nexus 5 which was not working and I tried to make it work.
However, I'm a complete noob. The phone wasn't turning on, so I used Nexus Root Toolkit in order to flash Android 6.0.1 M4B30Z
I had a lot of troubles, got stuck in booting loops and I couldn't solve it, even by wiping the phone over and over. So I finaly decided to flash Pure Nexus Hammerhead, and the phone finaly turned on.
However, all the apps are crashing (I'm not talking about store apps, but the one on the phone. Let's say I want to go in my settings, then the "settings" app will crash.
Sometimes, apps don't crash but the phone just freezes.
I don't know what to do anymore, that's why I resquest your help. What should I do to have a working phone ?
Thanks
Anyone can help me and tell me what to try ?

Sounds like you need to clean flash, factory reset as well as wipe system in advanced wipe in twrp before flashing ROM and gapps (I recommend Beans gapps minimal, not the full package) Make sure to wipe caches after flashing. Also make sure you're flashing an up to date build of Pure Nexus https://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-pure-nexus-substratum-t3477787

Hello,
So I went to TWRP and clicked "Wipe", checked everything and restarted. Now I only have the "Google" screen displaying, and I'm not sure what to do to solve that
