[QUESTION][HELP] SDCard Issues Android 10 - Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers

[UPDATE] I found the problem, I was running a Pre-Release GravityBox[Q] thats what caused the SDCard to go haywire.
After I flashed Android 10 stock ROM(Coming from Android 9) last night, my SDCard sometimes shows corrupted in Storage , after I reboot it works fine , but another reboot and its "corrupted" again . . .
I have copied my files then formatted the SDCard on the phone already but still the issue persists.
Is this something similar to how the bluetooth gets messed up when you root and you have to patch it with a Magisk Module ?

[Q] Any way of fixing System UID problem without flashing device?

Until yesterday, my Galaxy S II was working fine and I was recharging it as usual using my AC Adapter and it suddenly started to reboot itself constantly.
I thought nothing more of it until I found out that it wouldn't work at all.
I keep getting "System UID Inconsistent" messages and I try to force close the device but it doesn't work.
I'm using VillainROM 1.2 as my custom ROM as well as using the CF-Root Kernel to install it via Odin.
Is there anyway I can update VillainROM to fix the problem without wiping the data on the internal partition as well as accessing the internal partitions themselves?
(Ironically enough, I actually installed Titanium BACKUP itself on my device but for some reason, even though I paid for the full version, it would never let me upgrade to it!)
Apologies for bumping this thread but I really could do with some advice on how to fix this problem without having to flash the phone.
If phone turns on copy VR 1.4 file to sd card and flash through CWM as per roms instructions .
Or if you still have VR 1.2 on sd card reflash via CWM .
That fails a factory reset ( wipes all data ) may fix .
, I actually installed Titanium BACKUP itself on my device but for some reason, even though I paid for the full version, it would never let me upgrade to it!
You have the pro file on your sd card .

Thanks for the advice and I'd try it if I could, but my phone still won't let me force close.
On a related note, I'm still trying to find out why I can't access the partitions on my mobile phone via USB even though the partitions appear in Windows Explorer.
I can't remember where I installed the upgrade file for Titanium, to be honest. I take it that where the upgrade file is installed could be the reason why the free version can't be upgraded?

[Q] Strange Reboots

Hello!
I have a problem with my Galaxy Note 3:
On a monthly basis, I do a Online Nandroid Backup to my SD-Card.
After encountering a problem with the PlayStore, I booted into Recovery and recovered to my last "good" backup.
Since starting I had weird problems on my phone and I tracked them down to being a problem with the root access.
I used TowelRoot to gain root access again, but the SuperSU app didn't work. I then upgraded the SuperSU app, by deleting the old and installing the new version from the play store.
(After trying the uninstall function within SuperSU which did exactly nothing)
Since then everything kept working fine, but I encounter serious reboot problems.
With no clear time frame, my Note 3 Screen just freezes for 5 sec, and then the phone reboots. Sometimes I can use the phone 1 hour, sometimes 20 min until it happens again.
I have tried to narrow down the problem over christmas, and have the following points:
When I boot up, I have a SD-Card symbol in the notification bar which shows a sd card with a cog wheel in it. As soon as I enter my password it vanishes. Without the SD Card inserted I haven't encountered a problem, and it runs faster. So I reformated the SD Card in my PC to exfat, then reformated it again in my Note 3 and copied all the Data back (over my PC). After using it for 10 min, it rebooted again. I would really like to use my SD Card. 128 GB can't be the problem because it worked beforehand just fine.
In SuperSU I have set the root access to "allow always without questioning". This didn't change anything. I have fixed the Error from KitKat which blocks write/read access to the SD Card. So no problem there.
The problem still persists. And I have no clue what to do.
Tech Details:
Rooted: Yes (with Towelroot), SuperSU installed/working
Branding: None (International Version)
Micro SD-Card: SanDisk 128 GB
Android: KitKat 4.4.2 (Stock)
Recovery: ClockWork Mod 6.1ish (newest)
XPosed Framework installed
1. Factory reset your phone and flash the latest firmware official for your device.
2. Replace the SDCard for other and make some tests.

Thanks for your fast answer.
As I mentioned above, the SD Card can't be damaged because it worked beforehand. So I think it is not a hardware issue.
As I have recovered from a working Backup it has something to do with the rights/root access and the SD Card.
Factory Reset is not an option for me, because I spent so much time costumizing this thing that it isn't worth doing it all again.
On the other hand:
I am thinking of Flashing CM 11 and doing a Titanium Backup Restore.
Do you think CM 11 would solve my problem?

[Q] [TCL s950/Alcatel OneTouch Idol X] Completely messed up storage?

Hello everyone!
I, quite recently, bought an Alcatel Idol X 6040X (the one with only one micro-sim slot) and decided it's a good idea to root it. After a few minutes I managed to root it with Kingo Root. Everything was working perfect but later the phone started misbehaving - every app, every single smurfing app started crashing no reason whatsoever. I decided I'd do a factory wipe and get a better ROM (because the stock ROM sucks pants, lmao); I installed this ROM. Everything ran so smooth so I went to tinker with the options and noticed that the "About Phone" section says that my phone is now a Nexus 4. "Okay, I guess" - I said shrugging. "Everything is running good so why worry?"
Later I noticed some apps started misbehaving so I went to storage and discovered that my phone mounted its inner storage twice. One being the SD Card, the other being the Inner Storage (And both showed different contents).
First I booted up to recovery to fix permissions. Everything went well, also wiped Dalvik and Cache; then booted up the system, wham - a bootloop. After resolving it by reinstalling the ROM everything was fine again so I went on to reinstall XPosed. I noticed it won't work, because somehow, Superuser went completely absent. So I went to Terminal Emulator, punched in "su" but nothing happened. So I rooted the phone again (with Kingo Root again) and root with its SuperUser worked fine again, but the SD Card/Inner Storage unmount bug persisted.
I decided to unmount and mount SD card and my SD card showed up, everything was okay. Strangely, it unmouted its inner storage and said it was okay to remove it. Yes, You read that right, inner storage was okay to remove. Aaand... TADAAA! Gapps crashed. SwiftKey crashed. Acore crashed. Everything went on crashing again.
After rebooting everything went back to normal (in my case, the inner storage mounting twice but at least nothing crashed). I decided to see what would happen if I moved everything from the so-called SD Card to inner storage and mount my SD card. Now, every single app is crashing again even after reboot.
What do I do to fix the issue? Especially the one with mounting/unmounting my SD Card and Inner storage, it's the most infuriating thing ever! Maybe there's a better ROM but I can't find it?
Thanks in advance!

SD Woes

Is it my imagination or can updating to 6.0 cause the SD Card slot to cease to exist? Manually force updated stock rom from 5.0 to 6.0.1. Everything seemed to be working fine, until I went to access files on the SD card. No card found. Rebooted into recovery mode, unable to mount sd. Connecting to computer, no sd. Did a little searching, backed everything up to a thumb drive, factory reset, flashed cache, etc. Rebooted, went through 4 or 5 updates....still no SD. I'm getting 'SD not Inserted' message when I try to access it. But the dang thing was working before I flashed to 6.0.1 . What the flunk?
I suppose the next option is to root and try a custom rom for the 900M ? Unless someone has other ideas?
Thanks.

I installed today AGAIN Fallout Shelter, my phone was low on battery, and when I came home, I wanted to start it, but it wouldn't start...stuck at boot animation (not restarting, it's just loading infinitly) In TWRP, when I want to make a backup, the backup name is something like: (date)BalongC52B311 (old rom was Stock B564) ... now I will try to install the latest B588...
