Ran out of space while filming a video, phone crashed and powered off/on. When it started back up, I got this:
(not my photo but that's the exact message)
It seems to boot up fine after displaying that error.
Been reading about what to do over the the Google forums but most of the recommendations seem to be either:
- Rescue OTA
- Factory reset
Kinda leery about doing either of those as I'm in Africa with sketchy internet access. Do not want to brick my phone.
Been looking for any halfway decent diagnostic / health check apps to run but not coming up with much. Found various lists of the
"secret" Android codes that you can dial to access various menus, but while *#*#4636#*#* was interesting, it wasn't useful for diagnostics. Looks like *#*#197328640#*#* and *#*#7378423#*#* are supposed to get you into Service Mode but neither worked for me.
Anyone have any suggestions for a way to do a health check / verify the memory? There are lots of apps out there that claim to do this but I'm skeptical of most of them.
Hopefully this is just some kind of fixable file system corruption and not malware/rootkit.
