I formatted my internal sdcard to exfat by mistake while trying to simply format it(for some reason windows defaulted to exfat instead of fat32) now my sdcard won't mount and I can't format it in windows and can't mount it, I could get it back to fat32 and working again.

I replaced my original sdcard with a sandisk 16gb card. Everything went well until I started getting these blasted read on errors. Earlymon suggested a fix from another board but I don't have a stand alone card reader so I couldn't do it that way.
I was wondering if I just backed up all my stuff from my sdcard to my iMac and then just reformatted my sdcard via the phone, would that solve my problems?
I followed the instruction at [URL]... to disable the internal usb drive of Lenovo A820. But now my sd-card is not mounted anymore. What can I do?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using an EVO LTE, but this question should apply on using Android device that has internal storage and an external card slot.
I'm trying to use my EVO LTE as my sole media player (specifically, the internal storage). Connecting it to the PC and getting the files onto it are no big deal (of course I do need to use MTP, which I hate). Now on to the problem:
I'd like to be able to use the device connected to my car's USB port. Being able to pick through my media using the car stereo controls is a big plus for me, and worked great when I had an iPod (which I don't anymore, not getting into that).
Of course, the car stereo's USB connection doesn't support MTP, only Mass Storage, at least as far as I can tell (It's a stock stereo in a Fit). I get a compatibility type of error currently when I try to connect my phone using the 'HTC Sync Manager' USB option in the phone (which mounts the device using MTP). The 'Disk Drive' option of course only mounts the external card.
what I'd love to be able to do is mount the internal storage via USB Mass Storage. I'm not sure if this is currently doable, but my forum-scouring to date leads me to believe that it is not.
i have xperia ray and i want to swap my external sdcard with the internal memory.. Xperia ray has 300mb of internal memory and it's really low and isn't enough.. i know that there's a hack that switches the external sdcard with the internal memory.. i found a thread [URL] ..... that explains how to do that but i don't have the same line that the thread started has..this is what i have:
Code:
# Mounts the first usable partition of the specified device

The phone has only about 300mb internal storage and can barely handle its own updates(because of the limited storage). so i would like to know if its possible to make the phone "think" that some of the sd card is part of its internal memory? I found an adb driver for it(dont ask me where or which one because i had no idea and started messing with one until it worked) i have not tried rooting but can if i need to.
View 5 Replies View Relatedmy 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.
I followed this simple steps [URL] ..... and installed cyanogen mod on my samsung vibrant.
The problem i am facing is that its not detecting my internal 14GB memory.
When i go into clockwork recovery mod, there i am able to mount my memory and its visible in my pc.
How to make it usable in phone?
I tried with different cyanogenmod rom's nothing make the sdcard (internal memory) detect after phone starts.
One thing is its not cracked, because i am able to access it from recovery when i mount the usb storage using clockworkmod, it displays the contents in computer.
Also I was thinking if can i use external SD card to save my camera pictures ? It does not have camera menu options as storage location.
I am under ICS 4.03 on Acer Gallant Duo (E350) (MT6575)
/sdcard = internal storage
/sdcard2 = removable storage
I change build.prop parameter to ersist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage,adb
My device switched fro MTD to UMS correctly but only internal sdcard in visible and mount on my computer.
/sdcard2 (external sdcard) is not visible and not mounted on computer.
The strange part of the process is that /sdcard2 is unmount from the device (ACER) but not presented to the computer.
I tried to reformat the external sdcard2 without success.
I am using a mt6582m device with kitkat 4.4.2 with supersu. I can use root to write to system, data and cache using es file explorer, can also read and write to any sd card, but apps like titanium backup, online android backup, ram expander can't read/write to sd card.
Eg.1: ti backup read backups, can do all operation except backup and restore.
I had read a lot, changing backup path didn't worked nor any odex file is there. Using v6.1.5.6.
Eg. 2: ram expander can create swap file on sd but can read it saying 'not found'. Swap can be used with cache partition.
Eg. 3: online nandroid backup says pat not vaild.
I had tried, sd fix app, manually editing platform.xml, xposed module to 'handel external storage', change permissions using es file explorer, editing ramdisk.
There is storage/sdcard0 and 1
Also mnt/sdcard and mnt/sdcard2 (symlinked)
Also mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 and 1 (not readable even in es file explorer)
Today android phones are coming with an internal storage which is called the internal sdcard. Because of this the need for external sdcards is vanishing day by day. But when your phone is factory reset you lost all the data stored in it while in case of external sdcard you have an option to save your data. If you accidently lost all the data stored in your phone then don't worry I have a solution to get it back. This trick will work on phones having mass storage mode support, if you are running android 4.1 jellybean and above then root your phone to get mass storage( the tutorial is different for different phones),
If you have accidently lost all your files, photos and videos from your phone then after this do not copy new files to the phone. This also include clicking photos and capturing videos. If you copy new files to the phone then you are actually reducing your chances to get back your deleted photos and videos and other files. In short just don't download anything to your phone, do not use the internet on your phone till the time when you get back your lost files back.
This trick will only work on android phones having mass storage mode and MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) options. If your device is rooted then you can enable mass storage mode on your android phone. After enabling mass storage mode you can get back deleted photos, videos and all files from the internal storage of any android phone.
Requirements
1. Recuva for Windows 7, Windows 8
2. A USB data cable.
Now Follow The Steps Below
-Download and install recuva. While installation do not uncheck any option.
-Now connect your android phone in mass storage mode. Connect it to pc a notification will appear in the phone, tap it to enable mass storage.
-Now open My computer and you will see Removable disk.
-Open recuva and click Next, on the next step All Files will auto selected. Again click Next. Then choose In a specified location and click Browse.Choose the removable disk or MTP disk here and click Next.
-In next step put a check mark in Enable Deep Scan and click Start.
-After scan is finished you will see the list of all deleted files. Green circles is means that file can be recovered while red circle means unrecoverable file.
-Now check the box next to Filename to select all files. Click Recover on the bottom right and choose Desktop .Your deleted files will be recovered.
so my galaxy s2 has been running on RR 3.0.5 with the latest siyah kernel. A problem I've been having is frequent media corruptions, and to solve that, I thought reformatting the internal storage would work. After doing so, it doesn't recognize my sdcard. What can I do to fix this?
View 8 Replies View RelatedA long time ago I had edited a file that is read on boot, in that file is written which one of the two 'partition' has to be mounted as what.
Basically, my 32GB microsd is seen as the internal memory of the device (which would be 12 GB), and the other one as micro sd. The result is that most application would go to the microsd by default, using thus 32GB for apps instead of 12GB.
This is because my microsd is failing. Changed with a new one, and now it is failing again. I suppose my phone has become a 'micro sd destroyer'. Cannot do anything about it, so better to use the internal memory instead of the card for main use..... So how do I switch back to normal mounting (micro sd as micro sd and internal memory as internal memory and not switched up) ?
Is there a way to be notified from my application of sdcard mount? any services etc?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAs the database in my app grows, it is going to require more and more of the internal phone space. There isn't any sensitive/private data in the DB, so I'm interested in moving it to the SD card.
I'm using SQLiteOpenHelper to assist with the database work. It's my understanding that you can't use this for DB-access on the SD card as you can't define the DB path. However, there are some (very poor) examples on the Internet that suggest you can override this limitation. However I've never gotten one of those code samples to compile.
Is it possible? And if so--HOW! Please note that Froyo's "apps on SD card" feature won't work as it doesn't move internal files.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen the (HTC Desire) phone is powered up it is unable to mount the SD card, and I am unable to have it mounted from the "Settings > SD card & Storage" menu. Having said that, the micro SD card can be accessed from a computer (when plugged in directly to the computer, i.e. no issue with the card), and moreover, when I am in the recovery mode, I can have it mounted and browse it. By the way, the card could be accessed from the phone until I downgraded the O/S, and managed to have it rooted.
When the phone is running normally, and connected to the USB port of a laptop, the laptop does recognize a device connected (can even do ADB), but I believe because the SD card is not mounted, the phone does not offer the option to make the card appear as a disk drive for computer access.
I am running the original (RUU, Telstra) Android 2.2 (2.26.841.2) on a HTC desire, after I had it "S-OFF'ed". After reloading the original 2.2, I had it rooted.
The micro SD card is a 2GB one, with approx 1.5GB formatted as FAT16 (contains typical file and photos), and 0.5 GB as EXT3 (contains nothing at the moment).
HBoot: 6.93.1002
S-Off ( Revolutionary)
Recovery mode: ClockworkMod v5.0.2.0 (I manually loaded it)
I have searched online for solutions, and have not been able to have it fixed. Others seem to have different issues to that of mine. Usually, they cannot mount the SD-card at all (not even from recovery), or their SD card just needed to be reformatted. I think I have indicated that these do not appear to be relevant to my issue at all. I have also tried "Fastboot oem enableqxdm 0", and it made no difference.
Is there a way to mount the system root to pc as a disk mount cause I want to recovery data from it that I wiped.
