so i did s-off via unlimited.io/controlbear it worked first try and i installed the custom hboot, then reflashed anamra, now my internal sd isnt recognized in recovery, ideas?
Is it recognized while booted to the actual rom? And did you try to mount within amon?
Also, what type of wire did you use for the wire trick?

i used a copper wire.. and it will usb mount in amon to my computer but when i try to flash from zip irt shows lost.dir with nothing in it.
Maybe you could try backing up the sd to your computer then formatting the sd and transferring back to the sd from pc

Hey guys I was messing around with kaosgingerbread earlier and I made a nandroid backup of KGB but after rebooting, my phone reported that my sd card was damaged and I need to reformat to fix it. I can't mount it or access it. I tried restoring an earlier nandroid and it restored perfectly fine but still reported the card as damaged. I sadly have not been backing up my files like I should've so I have some important files that I don't want to lose but I cant mount it to my pc.
I was wondering if there was any way I could save those files. Is it possible to pull the files to my pc with adb? Should I get a mini sd to sd adapter and plug it in directly to my pc? Or am I pretty much screwed and should just cut my losses at this point?

if i were you id use the sd adapter and see if itll mount to pc that way and if it wont mount you might just have to start fresh by reformatting on your phone thru setting\sd storage....hope that helps

Have you tried to boot in recovery and use usb toggle to access your sd card?

No I have not ill try that now see how it works, thanks!
Edit: just tried it out no luck says I have to reformat it to access the files, if that's the case, will it be pointless to try the sd adapter? Is reformatting my only option at this point?
Sent from my Vanilla FroShedYo using XDA App
Well decided to bite the bullet and reformat had some issues doing it from the phone so I had to boot into recovery and use usb ms toggle and reformat from windows but it fixed the issue.
Now my question is does anyone know what caused the issue to begin with?

I am running Nils P 5.6 Business ICS ROM with the GB fw (old fw) patch. I S-OFF'd earlier today and flashed the jb_hboot when it asked me if I wanted to flash it during the process. Now my SD card is completely absent from inside the ROM. I was reading in another thread that I need to do the SD card fix, but that is only if S-OFF wipes my SD CARD. However, if I boot into recovery, I can mount my SDcard to windows just fine. I can even flash something else from the sd card if i want to. I tried wiping my the ROM and reflashing it to start fresh to see if my SD card would show up and it's still missing. Any ideas?
Edit: to be clear when I S-OFF'd (not sure if this matters) I used the 3.14.605.5 JuoponutBear's tool running Nils 4.3 Business ICS Sense which had the 3.14.605.5 base and it only took my one try. I know the instructions said to be on a stock ROM...
Did you try to mount your SD card while in the ROM.
Yeah, it only mounts the internal storage.
Format it in the rom

How? When I go to Settings -> Storage under 'SD card' it says Total Space "Unavailable" and then directly under that it says 'Available' "Unavailable" and then the next 4 options are greyed out.
Put it in an adapter and see what your computer does with it. If you can format it there do so...then if you're phone doesn't recognize it you can rule out the physical sd card from possible issues.

I have and I've done that. I have a little microSD USB adapter and when I stick my SDcard in that it mounts to windows perfectly. To be clear, I had my spare SDcard in my phone when I ran the S-OFF tool but my normal SDcard was working in the ROM before I attempted S-OFF.
Edit: My spare SD did get picked up in my ROM as "Damaged" after S-OFF. I tried to format it inside the ROM and it said "Erasing SDCARD" but it didn't actually do anything. I couldn't mount it with my microSD usb adapter either. I booted into recovery and partitioned it inside Amon Ra and then was able to mount it using my microSD USB adapter but it doesn't show up in my ROM either.
Which hboot did you install
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Yeah i fixed it, i had the wrong hboot.
i cannot mount the internal sd card in recovery, which means i cannot restore, flash new roms etc.
im s-on, running 4ext recovery,
any help would be greatly appreciated
Nvm I just formated my SD card, sigh...

Well, I learnt my lesson, always backup everything on a ext sd
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
great that you got it working, i would recommend trying to s-off your phone just because... so flashing rom's and fixing problems if any happens in the future will be easier
yea I know, It looked pretty bleak for a while where i basically couldn't do anything with the phone,
I will look into s-off
fix

fixed it thanks used droid explorer, happy man now
Hi there. I have a few questions // concerns.
First off, I just went from Scott's ROM to the (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ RAGE ROM found here. I followed the instructions on how to install as I'm S-ON (3x wipe all, flash rom, hboot image.boot, etc.) and everything was working great. Now it is telling me that my SD card is damaged -- click to reformat. I did that and it still had the error. I attached the device to my computer as a disc drive and I noticed I ONLY saw the SD card (no HTC Internal storage like I used to on Scotts).
I did what any logical man would do -- I removed the SD card and restarted the phone. The phone still says that the SD card is damage...
What gives?
Astro//ES Explorer said emmc was empty -- when I went to write a folder to it it didn't allow me.
I'm hoping this is something easy to fix/explain. Please help me out if you can.
When I go in to Recovery and hit USB-MS and toggle internal SD card (while the device is plugged in to my computer) I can see the contents of HTC Storage where I couldn't before.
But there's no way to keep this active, is there? Recovery only says press power to disable and return to menu and that's the only button that works.

There is. Once you have that mounted, and after you've backed up that data to your PC, use the PC to format the drive you mounted to FAT32. That should fix the problem.

Sorry to hear that. At this point all you can do is flash back to sense to fix the mount issue. Then try aosp again

It's NP -- flashing back to sense is easy, but how do you fix the mount issue?
it sounds like a firmware issues. did you go from GB to ICS?
Actually Neo is right. I had the same issue on that rom. Flashing back to a sense rom then going into recovery mounting usb formatting as fat32, then unmount, wipe everything basically giving me a fresh start then reflashing a AOSP fixed that issue for me
I had the same issue. Check out this thread:

I've been using an otg cable to move my nandroid backups off internal storage to a flash drive. I'm using the touchwork recovery. Recently I updated it to ver. 6.x.x. Since then, I keep getting errors when trying to copy or move my nandroids to the flash drive. I've also tried just connecting the DNA to my computer with the factory cable and get an "unspecified error, unable to copy". I can copy anything else, back and forth, just not my backups. Did TWM recovery change something in ver6? The backups restore just fine also
