I have rooted my samsung galaxy s5 g900h version and installed CWM ( g900h-cwm-recovery-6.0.4.7.tar) custom recovery on it.
When I start my phone in recovery mode I get two problems
1) It doesnt detect my external sd card (I have 2 fat32 partitions of 40GB & 20GB created from the app "Apart" available on the google playstore). {It detects internal memory as sd card}{Unfortunately TWRP or Philz(the link is not working , I tried from another link but after installing my phone freezes on the boot image) is not available for S5 G900H variant so I have to continue with CWM }
2)If i start backup it says "Error while making a backup image of /data!"
{I dont know if space is a problem , I had 2 GB of free space but I deleted some apps on my internal memory to make 4.5 GB of free space but still the problem persists} {I do get insufficient space error after rebooting if I dont delete the backup but CWM doesnt recognise my sd card also so I have to write on phone memory}

Yesterday I have rooted my Galaxy Ace and removed some pre-installed apps and also moved as many apps to the sdcard.
But the internal memory stays full and when I install for example the google docs app (4 mb) on my sdcard there is also added 4 mb to the internal memory.
When I look at App2SD it shows that the app is installed on SD card.
I rooted my device to get more free internal memory but up till now without any result.
What else can I do?
Best regards,
Carola

move dalvik cache to SD-EXT partition in a2sdgui..
delete all apps in /data/local ..
this should work. it worked for me.
yeah... just search how to activate a2sd on your Galaxy Ace... the best way, flash Ketut Kumajaya's CF-Root kernel, and also a2sd files with it... then activate using terminal, and you are done...
First off let me thank everyone who is going to help me through my issue.
Everything started yesterday when I got a16 gigabytes new SD Micro card. I originally got the card so I can move my applications from the internal 16 gigabytes storage to that SD Micro card . After searching through the web I have realized that I cannot move my applications to the external memory until I root my device and so I did it using a guide from this website. after rooting my device I downloaded every application in play store that is used to move applications from the internal memory to the external one.And for some reason all of them failed'Someof them said that there is no enough memory. and some others said I have no External memory inserted "already checked in settings and it says external memory 14.98 Gb free. After that i read another guide which Said I should get Rom manager to partition my memory card.and I did download the Rom manager . I tried to partition but it said I don't have CWM , and it asked ifit should install it so I accepted. mydevice wasn't listed. I chose a random one and now I'm afraid I have broken my 3 days old note 10.1 . Could anyone help me please with
1. The Sd micro card issue(apps From internal memory't external memory.)
2. The random CWM device that I have downloaded and maybe installed.
3. Partitioning my card (if that's going to help.)
4. I'm new to android and have no idea what rooting is "although I did it anyways" and how I Can use rooting
Rooted note 10.1
Thank you again <3
Edit 1- 8 views no help? Id really appreciate it if anyone could help me.
I think some sort of reply will help you get started...
Note 10.1 only supports FAT 32. not NTFS. So you have to format your SDcard properly to begin with. I believe its true, you need to root your device to get AppOnSD support.
NEVER flash anything that is not intended SPECIFIC for your device. Always do a backup so you can restore it from an image if you happen to soft brick it.
Rooting pretty much allows you to get "super user" functionality. Most notably the ability to access system files.

I'll try to help with fixing your Note.
Can you get into download mode? Start with power off and press volume down and power at the same time.
If so download Check Fus (GGI version) from fus.nanzen.se and make you have Odin and the Samsung drivers as described in the how to root thread.
Check the back of your Note for version number; N8000, N8010 or N8013. Use Check Fus to download the correct rom for your country. If not the nearest one.
Follow the how to root guide (sticky in development) that explains how to install the rom. This should put you back where you started. Now, read a lot. Don't use Rom Manager.
http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-10-1-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-10-1/ How to root instructions. Your replacing the rom from the instructions with the one you downloaded from Check Fus.

Yes bro, I'm using it now.
So, when you say you've broken your Note, what's broken?

I said I think I broke my note because I downloaded and installed a random cmw from Rom manager when I tried partition my sd card .
And I have a problem moving apps to the sd card. In app2sd it says it's emulated andin droids it says memory is full.
Then I'll back out. I've no experience of apps2sd on the Note. Have had no cause to use it. I strongly suggest you read a lot more before you attempt anything else involving door, partitions or CWM.

I've rooted my Galaxy core(GT-I8262) using framaroot and haven't installed any recovery( like CWM). Today when I tried to install app it shows error " Couldn't install the app,free up some space and try again" but I have about 2 gb of free internal memory and 10 gb of sd memory. I thought about Factory Reset but as I have rooted my phone ,I am afraid to do so...plz help

I am a complete newbie to rooting. I followed the kingoroot guidelines and rooted my Idea Aurus 3 phone. Root was success. The next step I did was downloading custom recovery and cyanogenmod ROM from here to my memory card
I flashed the custom recovery with flashify. The next step I did was wiping all data from the device by entering in to recovery mode (including cache and everything)
I was hoping I could simply install zip from sd card. But when i click on this option, I cannot find my sd card nor zip file (I checked most folders including emmc, etc, sd-ext and couldn't find SD card. The custom recovery name is Phylz touch 6
Now basically I have a phone without OS and all I can do is accessing custom recovery. I don't have a back up too
I can also see an error log "Cannot mount custom path"
I formatted the memory card to exFAT from exFAT 32 hoping that would work, it didn't help as well.
Also tried to connect phone to pc using USB (thinking I can move rom to system memory), but wouldn't detect phone memory
Now, is there any way to get this fixed? Any help would be awesome
Thanks!!!

Yesterday I decided to install the cm 14.1 for my one plus but there was a lot of junk in my phone so I wiped everything using twrp. And yes by everything,I mean even the internal storage . Now before someone says that you CAN'T WIPE THE INTERNAL STORAGE, IT'LL DESTROY THE PHONE. I have done it before so I know that's not the issue. So anyway I flashed the ROM and gapps but when I open the camera app it says "insert an SD card to continue". I can't download anything from the browser because of insufficient storage. But in setting it shows that only 5gb of storage is used out of 56 GB s.Any ideas?

Greetings and welcome to xda. Is this the rom you installed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/cyanogenmod-14-0-t3464337
If it is I noticed this line it could be connected to your issue
It is recommended to use F2FS.
Recovery - Wipe - advanced wipe - Select internal card - FS options - Check F2FS and swipe.
