[Q] Can i retrieve files from internal memory through recovery - HTC Amaze 4G

ok my htc amaze for some weird reason no matter what i do wont go passed boot screen i got a replacement but i want to retrive pictures and stuff from my internal sdcard and some very important files is there any possible way to do this through recovery or bootloader adb anything. its really important stuff that i dont wanna loose. i have xboarders recovery 5.0.2.7

Maybe go into recovery and go into mounts and storage, make sure internal sd card is mounted, then click on mount usb storage... Dnt kno if it will work but worth a try
Edit: and make sure u dont have and external sd card in there bcuz it will just keep mounting that

tried this only works with regular sd not internal
wit out external sd it says no such file or directory exist

Just flash the kernal of your Rom -_- thus no more bootloops/ frozen HTC screen

you can only access internal memory via recovery if you're sd has been removed. if not it will automatically read the external sd when mounted.

SD CARD and PHONE STORAGE

today i noticed on my sd card and phoen storage settings thing
that my sd card hasn't used a single MB but my Phone Storage with 12.77 GB currently has 1.25GB left?
How is that possible? i'm sure i dont have 10GB worth of things in here, to make sure i went on my computer, connected USB and saw that none of my files were bigger than 300MB
Why is this and how can i fix it?
Also if i press Format SD Card, what will happen?
please help me out here guys!
NVM i formatted it and all my crap on the thing is gone, now it feels like starting over, AHH good.
That's maaad weird.
But if you plugged into USB storage mode and if you see that's showing the right storage size properties, then that must be bug of the rom you're using.
Edit: You should have made a backup, before. Althought maybe it wouldn't have worked

Probably because the rom. I imagine it's reading the external_sd folder space and lumping it with the internal since that folder is in the sdcard tree: sdcard/external_sd where it used to be the external was "sd"... Just a guess.
No I formatted on purpose I saved music files before doing it.
Somehow it feels way snappier!

DO NOT FORMAT IT, after i did, i experienced SO MANY ISSUES because on my internal i had a bunch of things that apps depended on.
If you don't mind ODIN and going to JFD then do it.
Do this if your going to ODIN, its worth it.
Settings > SD Card and Phone Storage > Format (forgot which one) then you'll get all the space back then ODIN back to STOCK then it'll put all the files you need back on there, and you'll be good.
DONT just delete it and think your all good,
in your internal theres the update.zip which made me pull my pubic hair out (literally)
IF you dont want to do it, which i don't recommend, just go to settings > sd CARD AND PHOEN STORAGE > and click format on SD CARD or PHONE STORAGE and click confirm, and it'll be done.

[Q] No Internal Memory?

Okay I did a dumb thing and hit factory reset from bootloader instead of hitting recovery. So now only twrp folder shows and I have to flash from my eternal sd card. When Im in the Rom (CM10) I have no internal memory. I recieve a need sd card message when I try to download from the browser and under storage settings it says mount sd card under internal but It never mounts. And in cm10 I cannot mount usb storage. Sooooo.... wth? Should I run an RUU or is there a simpler or less painful solution? HELP! Thanks!
P.S. Is this the answer from the F.A.Q?
"Help I flashed a new ROM/update/script and now I can't access my internal/external SD card Its OK, the SD card has been corrupted but you can reformat it with recovery itself or by using recovery to mount the card and formatting it by PC"

Accidentally wiped internal sdcard / Cant boot into phone

I was trying to do a factory reset and accidentally wiped eveerything from my internal sd card. Now I cant get into my phone. I have TWRP installed with Jewel PVT Ship S-on RL
I have some ROMs on my external SD card but everytime I try to install the ROM through TWRP form the external sdcard it fails because it says that the internal sdcard failed to mount. Is there anyway to get the ROM from my external SD card to my internal SD card since it is now wiped and can not mount. How can I get a ROM installed if it is currently on my external SD card. Thanks!

First thing is format the SD card. Then from with in twrp switch from Internal to External SD card, and then browse for your rom there

Can I format the card in twrp? What is the filesystem? EXT? After formatting it be able to mount? I was trying to install from the other sd card but it was failing due to not being able to mount sdcard. Hopefully a format will fix that.
You may have to go back to TWRP 2.2. That was the only way I got mine back to a functioning phone. Oh and copy your ROMs to the internal SD after you format it. It can be done through TWRP. Hope this helps cause I know the pain your going through without your phone.

Had this problem
Ended up having to USB mount the phone, then format using mac's disk utility. Certainly would have been easier if I had been able to successfully format it from within recovery!

At least you're back up and running. Hopefully you had a backup of your setup on your computer before you had to format.

the actual internal sd card and android.secure was on that the dead sd card so what shall i do
1. Calm down.
2. Instead of mounting an sd card, you could mount usb storage in CWM. Then connect to your pc, transfer a rom (CWM flashable zip) to your sd card (internal or external, doesn't matter. Whichever you have working at the moment).
3. Flash rom in CWM.
