Hi,
I was trying to format my internal storage after connecting it to my pc. However the format got interrupted and now the phone does not read the internal storage at all??
What can I do? Can't figure anything out... Also tried to format internal storage using recovery but am unable to do so.
PLEASE HELP ME.....PLEASE............
Okay well- I have solved it out... just putting it in case somebody else goes through this too..
I went to recovery and with usb connected, I tried to mount the internal storage. And then windows connected to it asking me to format again since the drive cannot be used.
I formated and it went correctly this time and bang..problem fixed

Every now and again when I reboot the phone, my Internal Storage seems to be formatted. It's really starting to become a nuisance. I am on rooted on U4_2.1.1 - anyone else experiencing this issue?
Self bump...I found that if I reboot the phone in adb (using the reboot command) it formats my internal storage almost every time. I'm trying to isolate other causes while I am at it...
Bump, I also have this issue and it is extremely frustrating!!!
This happened to me when I rooted mine yesterday too, and this is my first post yay.

Hi,
Do a full format in Windows. Connect the phone in use storage mode to a pc, right click on the drive and select format, default settings, turn off quick format.
This happens when running Gingerbreak to root your phone.
Cheers!
So I backed up everything and am now formatting it but did I do something wrong wail using gingerbreak because I saw no where this could happen, just want to know what I did wrong.

hi,
This is what I am guessing happens: In order to get root, Gingerbreak hacks into the volume daemon (the android bit that knows about inserting and removing sdcards). So you get root but it's like you pulled the plug on your computer while your hard drive was accessing data, you need to do a full format to avoid glitches. At boot android checks volumes to make sure they are not corrupt, that they are 'checked' that they are fully synced and closed out before the power was turned off. If there are any problems, either a repair is attempted or a format is done, depending on the phone/firmware. So, after using Gingerbreak to root, there are some issues with the format of the internal memory, once you start filling it up, you get errors when it runs across a bad patch of the format. So, even though it may look like the drive has been formatted and empty, you still need to do a full format from a pc to clean up the mess. I would recommend both the internal memory and any external sd-cards be formatted properly afterward.
You'd need to talk to the author(s) of Gingerbreak to get more of a breakdown on what happens.
Cheers!

I have this problem, but cannot get the computer to see the phone as drives to format. Is there any other way of doing this?

Do you have it set to Mass Storage under USB Settings when you have it connected?
Do you have the proper drivers installed?
I had this problem too. But even trying full format using pc, it still wouldn't help. I even did a full wipe on my whole phone.
Please help me. it's been almost two weeks i'm having this problems. my phone is HTC Sensation XL CM10.1
the problem starts here, when i switch on my phone, it stuck on CyanogenMod, i restart my phone so many time but that wont help me, so what i did was i format my phone from bootloader.
so new problem appear again
I'm having problem with my EXTERNAL MEMORY. this is not SD CARD since HTC Sensation Xl DOES NOT have memory card slot. it's HTC Sensation XL 16GB.
my problem is everytime i enter camera and gallery, it says "No external storage available" then my whatsapp also cannot download images and videos. then when i go to storage, it shows only internal memory available, it does not shows the External one, it seems like the external memory is not inserted.
i already restart my phone so many times but still this wont help to solve the problem. then i go to recovery, then i tried to mount sdcard, but it said "cant mount Sdcard" then i tried to format sdcard but failed since the sdcard cannot be mounted.
then i try to connect my phone through USB to my computer, but i cant even read the sdcard, theres no notification that my phone is connected through USB. but its connected already. lol. so confused.
if i cant connect through USB, then how can i solve this problem? how can i flash a new rom? how to downgrade my phone since i hane read from most of the forums that the only way to solve is downgrade the phone to stock. but i cant even connect it through USB to put the rom.
im just telling this if this can help you.

boot into Recovery
-> Connect your HTC SXL to your PC
Go to "mount USB Storage " and sty in this menu, now the PC have to format the SD-Card -> But please look that it only show you the 8 GB free space (SD-Card). I know that Windows can show you only this one but with linux it is able to format everything.
So i had formated the SD-Card
-> Download CM
-> Download Gapps
Copy on the SD-Card
Reboot to Recovery
-> Install ZIP from SD-Card

Hi.
You solved this problem??
If you did can you tell me how?
Hey Guys, I just made the mistake that I shouldn't have. I put my phone in mass storage mode and connected it to my pc. Option appeared to Format Disk. I Clicked Format and then transferred some files to the device. But After that the phone didn't boot at all. Its total black screen scenario. I remember the disk capacity was 3.55gb or something when I formatted it. I had 8gb SD card in the device but before connecting to my pc, the phone showed the internal memory names as SD card, as this phone has a rare bug of displaying wrong storage. The internal memory is formatted I fear, and I have no stock firmware at the moment. I have the nandroid backup of my device which was created after rooting my phone. Help Please, Please give me a link to a stock firmware or tell me how to use that nandroid back up on my device, which is totally dead
i had this prob a while back...
i went here and downloaded the support tool...
connected my phone and reflashed the software....hope this helps!

Hello, today I wiped my data thru TWRP and now im stuck in boot system ( Pixel Experience )
My pc doesnt recognize my phone , maybe its the cable or the port fault, so i cannot transfer files. I thought to use an micro sd card, I found one in the house but its very old ( 128Mb ) I know in system it used to work but in TWRP I dont see any external storage. I even formated in FAT32 the sdcard, it may not work
because it's very old? Shall I try to get a new one? Whats the solutin if a new cable and a new micro sd card wont work to transfer files into my storage?
Format data again from TWRP. Restart to recovery.
See if your PC recognizes your phone.

I don't understand why it doesn't detect my micro sd, I tried with another one and twrp doesn't see any other storage. I think my cable is screwed that's why it doesn't connect to PC, also it charges only with only slow charging mode, I hope its not my port fault.
Strange, I would try formatting internal storage too.
Another option would be pen drive with otg cable/adapter.
Ensure the storage is mounted.
I cleaned very well my port and now it worked
