n8210: u need to go to recovery mode to flash the CWM.

Recovery Mode : Power Button + Home

Off ur SGA.
Then power up by pressing power button. Once its open, press and hold home button. It will go to stock recovery mode. Then choose install zip from sdcard (locate where ur put the CWM file: better put at the first directory/ root of your sdcard file). Then, continue to flash to v.1.2 ROM

Hope this help.

by default, our sga got it own recovery. But better update to CWM, coz many rom need it to flash to new rom or etc.

have u make a backup for contact, bookmark, memo or etc before u flash to Myth v1.2 rom?

if u done it earlier, just connect ur sga via kies. Then, wait for kies detect ur phone. after that, just restore all of it.

one more think, have u format ur sd card to ext4?

if not mistaken, Apps2SD need your sd card in ext4 format. If not, it not detect ur card and cannot activate it.

refer to this link how to format ur sd to ext4: link

additional:
1. Copy all the existing files in sd card in your pc (make a backup)
2. then, follow the instruction as link above
3. for ext4 partition, some recommend 512mb, and some 1gb. For me i used 1gb for ext4 (mine is 8gb. for fat32 used 7gb, and rest for ext4. Bare in mind, this is not a accurate size.) i also forgot what is the real one.
4. Don't forget to click apply on the partion magic software. After finish, ur pc will detect the sd card in just fat32 format.
5. u can copy back ur existing files into the sd card.
6. Then, place back ur sd to the phone. Follow instruction in Myth:
+ Open tweakmanager > enable VM Swapiness & DT: Autostart (dont need to click Apply because ur phone will reboot after enable davilk cache in next step)
+ Enable swap & zipalign
+ Enable A2SDGUI > Davilk cache > Cache on sd-ext then press "Move"

7. ur a2sdgui should detect the sd card now.
8. If u hv titanium backup, it will show the exact size of ur sd card in fat32 and ext4 format.

refer to above post how to format sd card to ext.

try to update ur kies in new update (maybe the latest is v.203.11082_152). My kies can detect the phone.

u using mybackup app? i don't know about that. Maybe u can try to restore from the app first.
For me, i just using kies for backup my contact, bookmark and memo. For message, i'm using go sms pro for msg backup. Once i'm finish update to gb and flash the Myth ROM, then connect my phone to kies and restore everything. Same to msg, install back the go sms pro app, the restore it.

please do it one by one. i hope it will help.

btw, i'm using Myth v.1.1 ROM and its was awesome. Try to flash to myth v.1.2 just now, but i dont know whats wrong, then i revert (restore) to Myth v1.1 back

some more info:
actually, the dking has post how to format to ext4, but it is in vietnam language.

here is another option how to format ur sd to ext4 if ur already flash to Myth rom. Another instruction (i think no need to use sd card reader,just copy and backup all entire data in sd in ur pc. After finish, just copy back the data to ur sd in phone)

how it will help

tq izzoe

yes, if flash.. semua hilang woo..

use tb to backup all th app.
contact and others can use kies. message i'm using go sms to backup.

better u backup using CWM too for all setting (its include contact, message and everthing in ur setting in v1.1 now).

if u think need to revert back from 1.2 to 1.1, just restore from CWM..
