General :: Mounting External HD No Root - SGPT12
Mar 22, 2013
I hame an xperia tablet S and a dock hooked up with hdmi to my TV. I want to hook up my external HD to it for HD movies and what not but it will only read the HD formatted as Fat32 and as most of you know, it will only accept files up to 4gigs. Well that kind of kills HD. I also cannot root my device as it is release 6b .

Since my last upgrade of cynaogenmod nighties yesterday on my galaxy s2, my internal AND external sdcard are not mouting anymore
I tried to understand why and I found that my /storage folder was empty. I think it should have been populated by /init.smdk4210.rc script :
Code:
...
on early-init
export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /storage/sdcard0
export SECONDARY_STORAGE /storage/sdcard1
mkdir /storage 0775 system system[code]...
I would like to retrieve my internal sdcard content.

I am using SGS2 i9100g.
I have flashed from CM10.0, JB4.1.2 to pacman 3.00, JB4.2.2
ISSUES:
1. error mounting emmc and cannot detect external sd card
2. When i want to use camera or gallery, there is an error saying "No external storage available"
Attempted solutions:
I have tried the following but it does not solve my problem
1. re-flash the custom rom and gapps. (full wipe with wipe cache and dalvik cache)
2. reformatted my sd card to fat32.
3. went to recovery to unmount and remount my external sd card
4. tried to mount emmc in recovery but returns an error "error mounting emmc"
5. off and on and also rebooted my smartphone
6. tried these codes shown at the bottom(to manual remount)
- I have a storage folder which has sdcard0 which contains nothing, sdcard1 which contains my file in my external sd card and a usbdisk0 contains nothing also.
- Now i am not sure which is the cause of the problem where i cannot use my camera phone and gallery

yesterday my phone fell off my hand, so the touchscreen is unusable... so the phone. The trouble is that I'm... well... not very clever at all, so all my contacts are on the phone itself, not the SIM card or my Google account. That's why I need to get into the root files with my computer, to find out the databases files.
The USB debugging mode wasn't activated I think. But I'm pretty sure there's a way to force mounting system files, even with a command line...
My phone is a "Le Mobile Sosh", a branded Alcatel OneTouch Idol Mini with Android 4.2.

I really don't have any desire to root in general...perhaps if it were all simple and zero-risk, OK.
But I'm considering root just to get full, normal, access to microSD. Is root the only way to get access?

When I connected my phone through cable it asks for formatting internal storage... After that I'm unable to mount sd and external sd also.. When I'm mounting sd card it shows "preparing sd card" and within a second it shows "sd card safe to remove".

So the past few days i have been working on porting clockworkmod to my tablet Vexia Navlet 2 White (cpu telechip tcc892x, board m805_892x_evm), i have setup a build environment and managed to make a bootable CWM but have reached a bit of a wall, my recovery dont mount anything.
And so i have a few doubts:
1 - In boardconfig.mk
I have these lines
Code:
BOARD_BOOTIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x00a00000
BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x00a00000
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x19000000
BOARD_USERDATAIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x39800000
BOARD_FLASH_BLOCK_SIZE := 131072
The size must be set based on the cat /proc/mtd result (or so it says on the different guides i found)
Code:
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00a00000 00200000 "boot"
mtd1: 00600000 00200000 "kpanic"
mtd2: 19000000 00200000 "system"
mtd3: 00400000 00200000 "splash"
mtd4: 09600000 00200000 "cache"
mtd5: 39800000 00200000 "userdata"
mtd6: 00a00000 00200000 "recovery"
mtd7: 00200000 00200000 "misc"
mtd8: 00200000 00200000 "tcc"
After searching on the forums and googling i saw that some people use the hexadecimal value of the column size but other people convert it to decimal, what is the right way? are both okay? is the code from my boardconfig.mk up there ok?
2 -
Code:
BOARD_FLASH_BLOCK_SIZE := 131072
This value, after researching it seems that this must be the decimal converted value of the erase column
Code:
mtd8: 00200000 00200000 "tcc"
In this case 00200000 (hex) -> 2097152 (dec), but if i set this value i get and boot.img too big error, i dont know if this is the reason of the mounting not working, but leaving the default value i can make it and the recovery boot.

I have a multimedia player in living room and have made ISO files from almost all my DVDs. Easier and faster for all the family.
I have a TF101G (Asus Transformer) with ICS custom ROM and I would use it to play movies. So until now, I ripped my ISO files (themselves ripped from DVD) and converted them into avi or mkv files. I'm tired of doing that and wonder if there would be no one way to read the ISO files.
Code:
mount -o loop -t iso9660 /path/to/file.iso /mnt/somewhere
But then?
1. Is there a reader for unpacking ISO files and play them? Apparently Daroon Player can do it but I do not understand how?
2. Would it be possible, once the reader identified, to create a script that mounts the ISO file and read through the player? How can I do this?

my internal SDCARD is corrupted and the /data partition is unusable.
My device is i9003 and it's running on MIUI at the moment. By default MIUI didn't detect my external SD or my internal SD but after editing "vold.fstab" I was able to mount the first partition of my external SDCARD as external memory and everything was good, I could finally use the camera and pretty much do everything else.
But I was still unable to mount the second partition of my external SDCARD as my internal memory which meant none of my messages could be saved and the phone would pretty much go back to factory settings after a reboot, this apparently is because the /data partition (present on the internal memory) stores all the user data such as the time, the theme I'm using, etc and not having a /data partition meant none of these settings were really saved.
Having no internal memory also means I cannot install any apps such as Link2SD.
Moving on, after many hours of googling I found out that it might not be possible to mount the internal memory using "vold.fstab" and the only way to do it could be by mounting the memory manually during init.
I want to use the second partition of my external SDCARD as internal memory, this is likely to solve all my problems and make my phone usable again.

My phone is a brand spanking new 7inch Dual SIM Android 4.1 JXD P1000. The phone suddenly decided it would not turn on yesterday, and now when I plug it in to my computer while turned off and run the memory test on SP FlashTool, It says that the External Ram is not detected, and that the EMMC is not detected either. (I have flashtool as I used to mess around with other MTK's)

Im on Jellybean 4.1.2 and I would like to know how to view my "external_sd" folder which is in my "sd card" folder? This is NOT the Exteranl SD card folder but rather a folder call "external_sd" which is in my phones sd folder.
I can view the files via Astro File Manager, but the folder isnt even displayed on my Windows 7 computer?

Rooted 2.2, stock kernel etc. No ROM changes (yet). Trying to xferr some media files from internal mem to SD card. Shouldn't be this hard! USB Debugging checked, rebooted phone, stock charging cable. Connect to PC, select "MOUNT AS DISK" option on phone; AUTOPLAY pops up, but then windows explorer refuses to open and locks up. Only fix is to unplug phone from computer. Booted into Clockwork Recovery and tried to mount system. Now when I plug phone into PC, I show two new drives (good) but then when I click on them in explorer, it says "Please insert a disc into external drive" (BAD). I don't think this should be that tough! Is this a rooted phone issue? A windows issue? A general Android OS issue?

I'm running a custom ROM (4.2.2) on an HTC Vivid. When I connect to my PC via usb, Windows only sees the internal storage, not the external sd card, and there's no way to navigate to the System partition to access.
When I was running the stock HTC ICS, Windows would mount the external card as a separate drive. I know the file system hierarchy is different with JB. Is this why it only sees the internal storage now?
