I have rooted s3 that was Running well.
But afterI put service to it the service provider ask me to factory reset the phone.
After I did the phone is running well but when I install apps they appear not to be creating folder on the sd card.
One app gives me error enoent no such file or directory.
Another app say error no save file.
When I looked on the sd card I realized there is no new folder in the name of the app like it was before the reset.
What I have Try so far. ..
Clear app Data
Delete/re install app
Wipe dalvik memory/cache
New wipe/ factory reset.
And I am about to do nandroid reinstall but I was hoping some one could figure tHis one out.
What command can I write, program can I use or thing can do to find the bug?

Hello Guys!
Today is my second day with this wonderful device. It´s really awesome, I played with her all day and started trying new things.
I rooted my Xoom, installed new Apps and I wanted to install a new theme, which I found here.
The description said that I have to copy the files on a micoSDCard, which I dont have. No Problem! SSHDroid -> Win.
Well..at least..that´s what I though. I couldnt acess the systemfolder.
I copied all the files in the SSHDroidfolder and transfered them with RootManager to the right folders - copy and paste.
After I pasted one app in the system/appFolder the Xoom freezed with an errormessage and the bar with the three buttons disappered on the next boot.
Than I tried the factoryreset, but I´ve got the same problem.
What should I do?
Reflash the device with the system.img and boot.img with fastboot. With that said it will take you a bit to find the correct system.img and boot.img for your device. Then you will have to learn to use fastboot. To me if your going to play these are the necessary tools you need to learn to use. BTW you might not need the boot.img but it can't hurt.

or if you don't want stock you can flash CWM recovery (using fastboot) and then wipe the device and flash a ROM from the Development section.
It´s working now (with Android 3.01) - thank you very much!
DominusD.
Now I try to figure out how to install tiamat without a SDCard..
if you do not have a sdcard yet, install rogue recovery, then you can backup, install... from the internal ssd
Tried to root my Galaxy Y S5360 using the described method (update.zip). No errors and I can see and launch the SuperUser App. However, I still can't modify any of the system files and Android Commaner reports Root Access: NO.
I can't see that I missed anything. Build.prop attached.
The same problem
I do not have even a su app in list...

btw, you can check with root checker basic if you have root acces, than you just should update superuser. And intergrate update in system, I use link2sd for that
I had this problem to.
The attached file worked for me.
Instruction.
Put the file in root directory.
Flash with stock recovery(not CWM)
It's a quick flash and after re-boot you should be set.
IT DOES NOT WORK IF YOU FLASH USING CWM.zip:silly::silly:
Unlockroot and Super One Click usually works for me, if one fails other surely be succesful. But i am rooting tablets generally so i dont know if these will help, but worth a try.
Unable to root my samsung galaxy Y st-5363
Hi All...
I am trying just so so hard but not able to root my Samsunng Galaxy Y st-5363 ...its gingerbread 2.3.6. I tried adding update.zip to the root of the sd card and then tried it with volume botton and home and power etc etc...it says installation aborted. i tried using gingerBreak when phone switched on but the app gets frozen. There is no SuperUser installed on my phone. I also tried multi root app thing, it says installing SU but when phone switched back on its the same.
..Please advise.

....
I just tried the updateRootStock.zip but that also same error...I noted the error :
ice")=="GT B7510" GET PROP
E: error in / tmp / sideload / package.zip
what means by i have to install update.zip or updateRootStock.zip or any zip file in the root of the Sd card ? by the way, I am trying to do all this with lots of information/data on my 32GB SD card, which i have backed up.
what am i doing wrong ? do i need to format the Sd card coz its been partitioned into 25Gb / 5GB ( as EXT2) for extra storage on phone.
pls help.
I'm concerned with the privacy of my data and I want to avoid any accidental recovery from the flash in my phone once returned for rma.
Is there any way to attempt to make the recovery harder? Something that can overwrite the whole userdata and system partition with 0 or any other pattern?
Thank you

I've done a factory reser and i think it already does a zero fill for the entire data partition. In fact it takes a lot of time and i found someone on internet supporting this behaviour after a checkup in the sources for any evidence.
A factory reset done from the android menus (if you have stock recovery) will wipe everything you put on the device (except system apps).

I want only to know if my data is securely deleted. A zero fill makes impossible the recovery without special equipment. So if the android factory reset does also a zero fill I can sell my phone or rma it without privacy issues

A factory reset doesn't go through and obscure the data like that. It removes the table of contents so the files aren't visible to the file system, but the data is still there (as you know). I actually just went through this with my previous phone before I sold it. I formatted all partitions with twrp and also formatted internal storage in Windows but a couple of free recovery programs were still able to find some deleted files.
I just ended up copying my entire music library over to fill up the partition so all blocks were overwritten. After that, the programs weren't able to recover anything. Not very high tech, but effective. You could even make a couple of passes if you want to be extra sure.

I would factory reset the device. Pull the sim and go through the normal setup without setting up any networking or accounts. Once the device is running, encrypt the device. Last, factory reset the device and then send it for rma.

I don't know, but I do know that if you do what I suggest, the only data to recover would be encrypted default settings with no personal information.

Hi I have A sony ericsson neo V phone and have been reading on moving apps to sd cards as I couldn't do it manually, I have read that I have to root the phone, would like some help on this please, I ve seen a thread but don't know whether it applied to my phone make and model. Please tell me how to carry it out.
I believe you need to root your phone to force apps to SD card unless they have that functionality as an in-app feature. You can search the forums for your specific phone's forum, and find a rooting thread there.

Now that you are rooted there are multiple methods to move an app to your SD card. Many are user friendly apps on the play store (I have used app2sd, seemed to work good). Or you can manually move the files using a file explorer now that you have root privileges.
Alternative method
After Rooting your device you can use foldermount to mount some apps on Sd card
I used link2sd..withit i can deinstall applications or freeze, bcz not used memory if is frozzed...
I want to link a game's data to sdcard via adb based on this link
namaewanai(dot)blogspot(dot)com/2014/08/how-to-move-lovelive-school-idol.html
I'm already on step 4
the problem is I couldn't link it, the adb always said "link failed File exists"
I believe this method don't need to repartition because I try to avoid that
is there anything wrong? thank you before
