Hi xda experts all.
I have a Sammy Galaxy S3 international i9300. I have a class 10 32 GB ext SD card.
Issue happening with all ROMs I run currently.
I run cm11 and AOSP based ROMs (Omni nightlies, temasek v26 (currently)) and tried various kernels that are known to be compatible (yank, boeffla, devil, temasek).
I have two issues. I have no idea if they are related (I actually doubt it though), but it's worth mentioning both here.
First issue is that no recovery can see zips on internal storage. Anytime I want to flash anything I have to select it from external SD card, so before rebooting into recovery I have to move the file there from the default download folder.
I have flashed latest CWM, TWRP and Devil recoveries. They all have this issue.
The second issue is that my system heats like crazy and can sometimes chew my battery up in 3 hours, even when phone is in my pocket. It's not unusual to see CPU temperatures of 60-70 deg Celsius. I also note that all cores will stay maxed out continuously. This is regardless of governor (excl powersave), even if I kill all dormant apps in memory.
What I've tried (with both ROMs and all named kernel combinations).
I have done full wipe and reinstalls ad nauseum.
I use TB Pro to restore apps. The only system items I restore are launcher and Google search (to restore home screen app and folder layout).
Edit: It is so bad that it will discharge faster than it can charge via USB and phone actually died from lack of power whilst plugged I'm to my laptop's USB connection while I was composing this.
Any suggestions?

^^That's what's at the root of my gtab's /sdcard.
Also, there used to be two folders in that that I had created and are no longer there.
Here's what I was doing immediately before I noticed this:
I'm currently using TnT Lite. I need to be able to access wifi at work but my company uses EAP encryption and TnT doesn't have a setting for EAP. I decided that rather than switching roms, I would just switch settings menus (using the files found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857939).
Stupid me, I downloaded them to /sdcard2 rather than /sdcard. I booted into clockworkmod and tried to install the zip from the sdcard but clockworkmod couldn't find anything. I realized my mistake and rebooted the gtab and hooked up the usb to my pc. That's when I noticed the file corruption.
Everything still seems to work as it did before, I just don't have access to any of the files that were in those folders.
In case it matters, one folder held the TnT Lite rom and the other held several videos.
Does anyone have any idea what could have caused this?
Should I try to delete the corrupted files?
Any help with this is much appreciated.
I don't claim to know why this happens this is just what I did to fix my problem.
I noticed this on my gtab also, to the point my cal program wouldn't open. The only way I could fix it was to do an sd partition to it fix the issue. There are instructions on how to do that with cm8. This is from memory so please double check, go to the advanced options choose sd partition 2048/0. Please note that this wipes the sd card so back up prior.
I still get a few of those weird files buy not like before.
same thing happened to me but hasn't come back after
re-partitioning with cwm ... maybe that is the fix
I would *really* like to know why this happens (that and why
the sdcard2 gets wiped out sometimes).
Basically, you dare not trust android with any important data
and you never know if what's on it will disappear suddenly
Unfortunately, this makes the tablet just a toy
So is the best option really just to re-partition the sd card?
If I end up re-partitioning, will I have to flash the ROM over again? Or does partitioning just remove the user data?
Quote: will I have to flash the ROM over again?
No
I use CM7 (nightly builds) and recently ran into a warning message about low internal storage, but I had about 2/3 of the total internal storage free (about 1 GB). Moving a couple of apps to the SD card made the warning go away but I'd like to know why the warning occurred when I appear to have so much space available. I can't just ignore it because sync stops when this warning occurs. Since going to a 32GB SD card is not a reliable option with this phone, I'd like to resolve the issue without resorting to wholesale transfer of apps to my existing 16 GB SD card. The screenshot below is my current storage after I moved a couple of apps, but the difference in free space now vs. when I was getting the warning is tiny.

this is a known issue on aosp based roms. if you check jt's posts here, you will find a post about /datadata being full, along with the fix. your /data partition is not full but another one, /datadata, is. as jt said, this will never be changed upstream, so either use the fix after every data wipe, or use less apps/move to sd all apps possible.
to confirm, open better terminal, or android term, and run df -h, look for /datadata, bet it's about %85 full.. Much beyond that you will start to get massive amounts of FCs, and it will make the phone nearly useless until you either use the fix or remove/move to sd some apps..
if this helps click thanks.
First of all, this is not related to any unsuccessfull flash process, I got my S3 in 2012 and it worked like a charm after many flash processes. The last ROM is - was :'( - Blekota Note 4 Lite 5.2
The problem came when this morning, I plugged my phone to charge, it was 3% battery, I left it for 1 hour and when I came back, the back of the phone was very hot and the phone screen hanging on the first image of boot animation. I unplugged it and removed battery, once turned on, it did not leave the samsung logo. I suppose the chip simply fried...
I was looking for a solution and found something that may be for help, but the solution i found was for SGS-I9000, the process did not work for my S3 (this one with two others related to sgs1), I formatted the sd card with 16GB Ext 4 and 16GB Fat32.
As I am not familiar with scripts and linux commands, my question is simple:
Is there a way to install a ROM in external SD card ? my phone starts in download mode and I am able to flash TWRP (or any other recovery) via odin, this one shows me Internal SD card capacity as 0 when I try to install anything. See attachments below, the red messages appear also when trying to flash stock firmware , after the first reboot (I9300XXEMD3_I9300OJVEMC1_I9300XXEMA5)

If you cant mount anything, its either your internal storage is burnt too or corrupted from being affected by the burn. Your s3 might be basically destroyed

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's the point of trying to install system in external SD
Unfortunately that is impossible. Sorry
Hi, I have a ZTE Spro 2 MF97G running software version "SPRO2GV1.0.0.0B03"
It is running the stock ZTE firmware (not rooted or any other modifications), but it seems to have a software issue that could use even a reinstallation of the same software version, as a factory reset does not fix the issue.
The issue is that a system process is misbehaving, and the issue happens even if you factory reset and not even connect it online or install anything. Furhtermore, if you leave it offline thus preventing any updates or anything else besides a single sideloaded APK to monitor CPU usage, it becomes clear that regardless of what is done, a system process is using nearly al of the CPU time, this prevents the device from properly going into standby, and impacts performance. The device also remains warm the entire time due to the high CPU usage holding the cores at 1.95GHz constantly.
The process at issue is /system/bin/netmgrd

What I would like to do is a fresh install of one of the ZTE SD card packages, but since ZTE has discontinued the device, they also removed its files from their update server, as well as removed the downloads for it from their website.
With this in mind, is there any way to get a hold of those files?
I wonder, does anyone else have this issue, even if they can't find another SD card package, it would be interesting to know if I am the only one with this issue.
I guess they killed the download section of their site before anyone was able to download any of the SD card packages.
ZTE support was able to get a SD card package made available, though sadly, the netmgrd issue still remains.
The SD card package is at https://www.zteusa.com/zte-spro-2-wifi.html

Hey there,
as mentioned in the title my long used Honor 9 started to randomly restart (sometimes multiple times). I can be triggered when opening/closing different apps, browsing through youtube or listening to spotify. Sometimes the phone even restarts after I entered my sim-pin, so I can't use it at all at the moment which is very frustrating. Most of the time, if the phone restarts, it ends up in the eRevovery Mode or the Emergency Backup Mode. There I only have the option to shutdown/restart/backup/reset the phone. I always press restart and with a bit of luck it starts completly normal so I can use it... until it restarts again on its own at some point...
I never had issues with this phone until last week. The last few days those random restarts and boot loops ending in the eRevovery Mode happened very frequently.
Here is some info:
I use this phone since November 2017 with an external 128GB SD-Card
4GB Ram, 64GB internal memory
SD-Card used 100GB/128GB, Internal used 30GB/64GB (so technically there is enough space left)
EMUI 9.1.0.231 (strangely it shows the same version as an "update" sometimes, see picure down below)
In 2019/20 I changed the battery once (old battery was bloated/swallen, no problems occured after the replacement)
My phone is not rooted
... if someone need more informations about my phone: just ask!
What I have already tried to fix the problem:
Downloading "the same version update as already installed" (see picture down below)
Deleting unused apps
SD-Card removed
Cleared System Cache
Using "safe mode"
Doing a factory reset
Unfortenately nothing helped.. Someone has an idea whats the problem and how I can fix it?
Thanks in advance!

UPDATE:
I think I found the issue. I just saw the reviews of the battery I changed in late 2019 (see: here). Nearly every review is stating that this battery is causing the restart problems. This is a little bit strange because I used this battery for like 2 1/2 years and had no problems until early 2022 when I suddenly experienced the same issues.
Has a new battery solved the issue?
I'm currently having the same issue.
