[Q] Galaxy s2 internal usb storage issue - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

how i can fix that issue i was trying reinstall ics but it still doesnt work.HELP! Sry my bad english!

Sounds like you've flashed an incorrect .pit. Also, is that really a 512MB microSD? Hardly seems worth it .

that's exactly what happened. Flash stock with the right .pit. Then format USB storage again and you will pleasantly surprised.

Thanks for the help i will try to install with new pit but where i cant get official fw with official pit? idownloaded that fw from sammobile by my model. and i will get soon 32gb micro sd this 512 just in case for installing frimwares .

galaxy s2
Can someone post the link with stock frimware with pit? i dont find it anywhere.

I think you kan find your firmware and pit here, at xda. Just use the "search" button.
otherwise - go to sammobile.com.
Actually I had the same problem as you with 4Gb of USB storage after formatting it. If you'll do as I told you earlier - the problem will be solved.
good luck.

Look for the sticky at the top of Q&A titled "[GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked GSII (I9100G/M/P/T VERSION INCLUDED!)"
Has recovery packages (which all, except for the I9100G package, include .pit files) for I9100, I9100G, I9100M, I9100P, and I9100T.
Make sure you use the correct one for your model.

PIT files for GT-i9100
If anyone wants/needs to repartition their internal storage, follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2538947
Note that these are for ONLY the Samsung Galaxy S II International GT-i9100. Also be careful when flashing PIT files, as it can permanently brick your phone if something goes wrong. And I mean a real, permanent brick. Flash at your own risk.
WARNING: Doing this will wipe out your phone entirely. You'll also need a PDA file to flash along with the PIT. Check sammobile for firmware (PDA) downloads.

fix sdext memory card size error for every phone or usb memory
You have to connect your phone to a pc from the recovery (apolo kernel in my case)
-mounts and storage
-mount usb storage (something like that)
And will apear like any sd card ,so you will be able to format
Just format the internal sd card with HDD LOW LEVEL FORMAT TOOL . You wont need to install any pit file
Just copy ALL data from your internal memory and paste before format it.
Thanks!!!

Please help me

Internal SDCard Trouble . Help please!!!

well Hello to all
the thing is my Galaxy S2 does not detect the internal mass memory (16gb), I cant get acces with the phone or PC
its boot ok, I can make calls, texts etc... but, for example if I try to take a picture with the camera it says "insert an SD Card before using the camera"..
Download mode & recovery are ok.
I allready format everything I could :S
Odin does not recognize the phone :S
any Help??
excuse my English :silly:
Thanx!!
What FW are you running?
i don't think this is an internal memory problem.. under the camera's settings, did you set the storage to memory card? maybe you accidentally set it to memory card
Having a similar problem, but after rooting my internal storage seems to have disappeared?? any ideas/help greatly appreciated!

Maybe you need to mount in CWM under mounts and storage. Sorry if I'm mistaken!

Surely it's under "emmc" in the root folder. Get solid explorer and you'll see....

Have tried that too, pretty much tried everything. Having one last shot with a different idea this evening, but if that doesn't work am out of ideas.
Thanx to all for the help! I have made some progress... now when I conects the phone to the pc recognizes it as a disk storage, can not be formatted...
I have X-Treme CM10 1.0 it is bassed in CyanogenMod 10 . Android 4.1.1
I think I have to Mount the USB Storage.... but dont know how. ( I believe thats where the problem is)
In Recovery mode > mount USB Storage it says "E. unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory)"
I´ve tried too Recovery mode > mount SDCard = "Error mounting /SDCard"
Odin stills not recognize the divice! so I cant change the rom or something.
What if if try to use Odin with RE PARTITION chek "ON"?? , I know is risky..
thanks for the help, and again, excuse my english!

I'm facing the same issue. Apparently, its not the issue with ROM or rooting. I'll try to flash new kernel through CWM(as i can't connect via ODIN ). Will update here if find any solution
Why don't you download some good ROM via phone's browser and then install it via recovery? You should try. Second method is that you insert Micro sd with some ROM (try one of the Samsung 4.0.3 based ROMs) and Siyah kernel on it and then flash it.
flash stock with pit
same problem with cm 10.1
Go into recovery and format emmc (internal storage).

About 10Gb show as Misc. can't use. How can i fix this problem. please help me
Can you post the full firmware version as well as the kernel version?
Hopefully it was not another superbrick.
Your internal storage? Or SD Card?
If it's your internal storage then go check out this thread, same problem.

Flash the pit file provided from the link at ercxar's post, using Odin with ONLY the .pit file.
Let it run and it will reboot and stuck during booting. Remove the battery and put it back.
Boot into download mode, flash the ROM.

Hi guys, i did some stupid thing just now , i wipe my note on running 4.04 rom . I try recovery it back ,by using odim restore PIT and PDA . Luckly it works . But i find that i leave 8g memory only! it should be 11 gb !! any of u facing this problem ?? any solutions?
Could be that there are still files on the internal memory. Unless you specifically choose the option to do so, internal and external storage memory are not included in a wipe/cache clear.
