I flashed a couple of roms last night and it seems that my storage has stopped working for some reason... Android doesnt detect any internal storage and says that my sd card is damaged, and so i can't acess any of it from inside the OS, however, if i turn on the PC storage mode on clockwork it works, any clue what's wrong or how can i try to fix it?
Thx in adavance.
I just flashed the OMEGA v8 plain rom and it seemed to fix it...
Good morning,
Yesterday I flashed Dexter's ONE XXL rom which I like very much and can almost be used as a daily rom. Unfortunately the files that i stored on my external SD card didn't show up anymore. When I tried to reach the files with ES File Explorer , I couldn't find my SD card anymore, just an 'read only' file which was empty. In the storage options of the Flyer itself the card was not available as well. After that I decided to Flas back to Leedroid's Rom, since that was the last ROM with everything working, but unfortunately after Flashing this Rom , the problem was still there. When I use this card with a cardreader on my PC verything seems to be ok with the card and I can access all files
Is there maybe anyone who faced similar problems and knows a solution?
Thanks in advance for your help!
After trying to find a solution without any result , it seems however that when I boot into recovery, my Flyer can detect the files on my SD Card. Unfortunately when I try to mount my ext SD in recovery, it doesn't work. Seems that inside the Flyer's software something is broken with the result that it can not see the external SD at all.
I really hope that someone can help me with this problem
Found a solution
Moderators, please close this thread. The problem is solved. I just flashed a stock kernel and a stock ROM and all works great again
Hello guys,
I have a problem that is very rare and I have not got into any other other threads to fix this one in particular.
the problem i have is that I was on Jelly Bean and then out of no where the phone went to recovery and was just there
trying to read the SD Card and it attempt 10 times and it just keep booting on and off to the same error at the CWM Recovery
So I got the phone into Download mode flashed the Boot loader for Frojo and then Odin again but with Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo.tar.md5
I got myself back to stock but it still have the same problem on not detecting any of the SD Cards Internal and EXT.
This make go and Odin back again a new rom EUGENE373_SamsungS_Froyo_PDA and the I went to STOCK Eclair and i still have
the same issue.
Is there anything I can do to restore my SD CARD?
With this problem there will be pretty much anything to do to the phone any more as it wont read the SD CARD for files, apps or anything
in there. Im getting an error at the notifications
Code:
Can not mount External SD card
Mountpoint absent or incorrect
I really need your help as I need apps for my job as i work on the road 24/7
Please advise on how to fix the i believe is the ICS BUG
Thanks
Soft bump

Hi All
I have searched the forums for an answer to this, to no avail. Its not an easy problem to search, but apologies if this has been previously discussed..
After some years of owning and flashing various android phones I have suddenly come completely unstuck. I am not sure what has happened, but I suspect that my internal storage has died. No matter what Rom I load (including returning to stock flashed via Odin) I cannot see the phone's internal storage (i.e. the memory that used to appear as "internal USB" or similar). Instead, the "SD card" is being emulated under the folder "0" in the phone's main storage... I am unsure what is happening here.
This happened after flashing the latest version of Omega Rom (v44). Everything went completely fine as usual, I have no idea why this happened. When I rebooted the Rom had installed but internal storage was missing as described above. For some reason the AOKP elements of the Rom are not present, but the system does seem to work.
I have inserted an external SD card to see if the phone would just use that. No effect. It still appears to be "emulating" the external SD card.
I am not sure where to go from here. I can accept that my internal storage is dead. However, as described above inserting an external SD card still doesn't seem to allow the phone to work normally. It is still trying to emulate the SD card in the phone memory, even on a stock rom. On custom roms this seems to stop the AOKP element from working and I end up with some kind of half way house of custom rom and stock Samsung stuff... its bizarre!
Any help or even just thoughts as to what is going on here greatly appreciated.
I remember that in CM roms there is an issue with the 0 folder thing, but not familiar with it. Maybe someone with more experience could recommend you some action steps.
In case you could always try a full wipe (mega wipe) as it includes your sd card (internal) and leaves nothing on the phone. This will enable you to start from scratch (have a flashable rom on your external SD though).
Please please help me, I know it sounds pathetic but im nearly in tears due to how massive an impact this is having on my life!! :'(
Im willing to genuinely pay £10 via paypal to anyone who can help me fix my phone, I promise.
My phone is an LG Gt540.
I bought it 2months ago new on stock rom.
I managed to workout how to root it, and then upgraded its rom a few times over the next few days.
I eventually reached CM 4.2.1 rom, which is the highest available and worked well.
The phone has only 133mb internal space though, and so I needed something to increase the storage (using my SD card's space).
And so after many days of trying stuff I managed to find Mounts2sd.
I partitioned my SD card correctly (using mini partition wizard), and mounts2sd was working fine.
However 1 app didn't work, and so like an idiot I decided to re-flash the entire rom, wipe the sd-card, and try to restart from fresh.
However I endedup formatting; the SDcard, The SD ext, the System, and formatting everything in the menu in recovery.
The phoned bricked and wouldn't turn on.
But I managed to put my SD card in my laptop, have my laptop detect it as a 'device', and so was able to place the ROM file onto the SD card that way.
I then re-booted into recovery, and re-installed the rom.
I thought id fixed the phone, but clearly I hadn't.
And for the last 2weeks since, everytime I try to re-install mounts2sd, it just totally screws up and freezes up the phone.
I partition the SD card correctly each time, however when checking it in recovery it says SD-ext wasn't ever mounting (error mounting SD-ext) was the exact message.
I then tried to re-install a lower level rom (2.3.4 I think it is) onto the phone,
to then re-install CM 4.2.1 afterwards hoping that that would fix it all,
however the phone now wont detect the SD card at all!! :'(
The only way I could access the SD card normally is put it in the phone, plug in usb cable, it wont ever detect the SD card as a folder on my laptop like C: or D:, but if I use Mobile2go software from wondershare I was able to connect to the phone and access the SD card from there, and transfer files onto it that way.
However I now cannot do that, since when I try the phone will turn on but has error msg flashup every second saying something like keyboard has stopped working, and so it wont load the Mobile2go software, and so I cant connect to the SD card to put the 4.2.1 rom onto it.
I have tried placing the SD card into the laptop through the side-slot thing, and can access it via mini-partition wizard when I do that.
However the SD card is not being detected at all when I click on My Computer, and so I cannot place any files onto it! :'(
I seriously am so close to crying now, this has already had me in tears, as its so upsetting!
Please please can someone help me.
To summarise the things I need to be able to do (in order I guess) are-
1. Find a way of getting my phone to recognise and mount the SD card.
2. Find a way of getting my phone/laptop to detect the SD card and allow files (CM 4.2.1 rom) to be placed onto it so I can install that back onto my phone.
3. Find a way of being able to get the SD-ext to be recognised and detected as being mounted by the phone so that I can use Mounts2sd.
If anyone can help me do all those 3 things I will be so truly grateful and will happily pay £10 to you via paypal as a sign of my gratitude.
As this is just distressing and upsetting me so much.
Thankyou
Jessica

Hello and thankyou for your reply.
How exactly do I use 'kdz' to flash back to the 1.6 stock rom though please?
As I don't know any of these technical terms at all.
Anyone have their efs folder contents completely disappear?
This happened to me with my Sprint galaxy S 5 and I get a pop up saying the device is in " Factory Mode " and I need to switch it to user for it to work properly. The phone will boot with a stock recovery only but is useless due to the Factory Mode, it disables WiFi and causes numerous other issues .
Would greatly appreciate any input on this. It is all over the internet but nothing but no legitimate fixes after 30+ hours of research
Look at LG Swift GT 540 forum on xda, there are all tutorials, Now I cant post link for it bu google it "LG gt540 xda"
