there is but when i choose it said E: cant mount sd card (no such files directory) i don know why i once rooted before then i decide to unroot and update to ics n now i want to root it again it just keep saying cant mount

did you do anything in the meanwhile to your SD card? like or partitioning? is the main partition primary? is the card in tact, physically, and are the connections clean?

cant mount sdcard

cannot post in the correct thread in developers as i am a noob member but following the noob thread when i get to the step to mount the sdcard in recovery i cannot. i keep getting the error
E:can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1)
(no such file or directory)
what exactly are you trying to do? a little more info would be nice. you said you are trying to mount in recovery? for what reason?
Aren't the SD Cards auto mounted in Amon-Ra recovery? Wouldn't that error be due to the fact that they're already mounted?
Use Amon-Ra or Clockworkmod; While in recovery mount SD card.
I had to restore my laptop back to original factory settings for it to recognize my phone.
had nothing to do with the rezound, my computer woulndt install any new drivers..
if I had usb debugging turned on the computer wouldnt find the sd card or internal storage, as soon as I clicked usb debugging off, bang found sd card. I suggest trying this.

no one knows the answer! weird ha?!
Going to bump this because I have the same problem. At the moment my phone is a brick since I can't put over a rom to install because I can't mount the internal SD card.
Same here, i think its a known issue with ics cwm recovery on sgs2

[Q] Dell Streak 5 Problem

I have successfully fixed it and it has no problem, it turns out the retard I bought it from replaces the screen but took out the internal storage and it was at a boot loop cause it couldn't store it's data! I'm very satisfied now! Thanks to all that tried to help me though. any mod or admin can close this thread now
I'm a bit confused.
If you have streakmod recovery installed you cannot flash a stock rom.
Have you tried using a micro SD adapter to put your card directly into the computer?
If you have streakmod installed then you need a custom rom. If your device is not recognised then try the way I suggested to transfer a custom rom to your micro SD card.

Yeah the micro sd works fine on my adaptor I just need to fix the brick its the boot logo loop. I just dont understand why it isn't recognizing my sd i put on the phone like in calibration test it found it but when i try to mount usb from streakmod it asks me to inser drive d: or whatever the drive letter was. Maybe you can point me in the right direction to fixing this brick.

first of all ... you must use streakmod recovery...
secondly... i think the inner sd card has gone bad...
I got same problem,
I took innerSD out and I check it in my PC, it said nothing wrong with it
but it is in FAT format, strange ..
I thought inner SD is in EXT format isn't it ?
Is that the problem ?
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16710474&postcount=7
To answer your questions...
1. The MicroSD should be in EXT format, not FAT or FAT32.
2. Yes, that is your problem.
Read the threads at the link provided. They have a wealth of information. Also to be found on the forums is a link to a disk image of the inner MicroSD, which you can use to restore your card. Assuming of course the link is still active.
Just currious
How can My InnerSD became FAT formated ?
I never touch inner SD before, and it run well for almost 4 years (never send "the error msg" + FC's)
I used, froyo > Stock Olleh > PowerRom > last MIUI 2.4.20
after MIUI installed, I used Pure Performance + some swap thing in aplikation + SD Booster
and then, I got the "can't mount messege"
and another problem is
if replace the innerSD and then I format the innerSD the way it should be (in EXT)
I dont have any image to copy, while the OEM InnerSD is in FAT
For the disk image, search the forums here. One of our users posted an image of the MicroSD quite some time ago. Assuming his link is still active, you can use that image to restore the card. If that image does not work, try formatting the card with SD Formatter from sdcard.org, then place it back into the Streak. If after that the card still doesn't work, replace the card.
As for asking how the card could be formatted in that fashion, I have absolutely no idea.

S5830i - recovery mode - e: can't mount /sdcard

Hi all.
I used to have a rooted Ace (5830i) and I wantet to install a different ROM from SD card. Entering Recovery Mode, I was not able to install the ROM. I got the following message:
E: failed to mount SDcard (No such file or directory)
E: Can't mount /Sdcard
Meanwhile I am back to an unrooted system, but the problem is the same.
I've been through the search but nothing helps.I would love to re-partitionate the sdcard, but it also doesn't show up when I'm connected to PC, so I cannot make a backup.
My aim is to have a rooted system and the sdcard mounted correctly.
Any suggestions? -pleeeease-
had the same problem before with mounting /data and I had solved it with reinstalling the firemware...
Ynt: S5830i - recovery mode - e: can't mount /sdcard
Did you check your sd card in the computer with a card reader. There may be a problem of sd card itself.
S5830i Stock + Root + init.d + LightSpeed Intervention + Link2SD
AW: S5830i - recovery mode - e: can't mount /sdcard
Hi, thanks for the answers. Maybe I was not clear enough. It is the internal sd. At least I think so. I have the same when I remove the external sd.

Use Recuva (search google) to rescue your data from sd card. If you did not copy anything on it minimum 90 percent of recovery is possible.
S5830i Stock + Root + init.d + LightSpeed Intervention + Link2SD
heads of u !

hmmm ur sdcard partition may be corrupted then
do u have mount/extsd option in cwm?
if u have this option try mount extsd if this doesn't help too,u must unfortunately flash stock rom
What format is the card in? Some CWM versions might not like certain formatting. Have you checked on the thread for CWM for your device to see if others have issues mounting their SD card? Are you able to mount the SD card via PC with other readers? Might need to either try a different version of the recovery if available or to reformat the card via PC (make sure you backup stuff to the PC first as it will wipe everything).
