[Q][S] internal memory damage - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

here's the thing, i am copying file to my phone from pc then i forgot to unplug safely, the thing is after i reboot, it says that internal memory damage, unexpected removal... (instead of preparing internal memory). but it still loads my apps..
is there a way to fix this rather than formatting the sd?
i plug it again to my pc to check for errors, but after the chkdsk it still says, internal memory damage upon rebooting.

Connect in MSC mode and chkdsk.

It's just a typo. I was scared the first time I saw this also, but booted on AOKP and now errors, so I deducted it was only another bug.
"I got my values. So you can keep yours, OK?"

yeah but still i find it creepy, hahaha.. so i restored, but maybe its not just a typo error. ill just wait until its fixed

[Q] Android says SD-Card corrupted ...but it's not!

Hey there,
for the second time now Android (KG6; has happened once on KG1 before) came up with the message "SD Card corrupted... please format".
Totally out of the blue. Nothing special has happened. I didn't take out the battery or something...
So I take out the SD, put in in my card reader and Windows has no problems with it. No error message and I can use the card as regular, reading out all data that's supposed to be there.
Last time I backed up the content, formatted the SD, put the content back on and placed it back in the phone. Everything worked fine again. But considering that this process took like an hour or so (20GB of data to move) I really don't want to do this every second week.
Does someone have an idea what this could be caused by? It is an annoying thing and I really don't want to run into it when theres no pc and card reader close by.
Any constructive thoughts appreciated!
btw, I've got this SD-Booster running on Android, which changes the cache-size for SD data. Can this cause the alleged corruption?
Now when it is working just keep using it. I don't think the problem will come back again
Best of Luck.

No, that's not possible, because this app doesn't work with your files directly.

I have the same problem. Ubuntu and Windows has no problem with the SD card. I can even read the sd card when I put the phone into nandroid recovery mode, but after loading Android it says it is damaged.
Can anybody help with this?
Just format the sd card in fat at default allocation size and you will be good to go...
It happen due to partition coorupt in sd card... So formatting will erase the causes of partition.

Vista could not format. Managed to do it on XP. Working okay now. Luckily I always keep a backup, but still a nuisance copying over 15gb of data.
Thanks again.

[Q] SD there but not there

So I'm running JT's vanilla Gingerbread. And after a day my SD card is not showing to be inserted thru gallery or if I try to download to. However I can play my music find ringtones on the card view pictures thru other apps and when I go to storage under setting it say card mounted and shows memory. Also something else weird is I can't delete anything from the card. Not really sure what's the problem and could use some advice Thx. (update) So two days now I've realized the problem has nothing to do with the SD card it self, everything is still there and I can do back ups from it as well as export contacts and flash in recovery. The problem seems to be somewhere in the rom. Gallery show a message "Sd unmount or not present" as well as I can't delete anything from the card thru the phone. Root explorer says it's deleted but it's not, every other way I try I get a "file can't be deleted" message. I can view pictures and video thru astro just not thru gallery. So I'm thinking this is not a wiped or fried Sd card issue but something with thew rom, I'll try flashing powerwashed rom and see if the problem continues and update.
If your running anything gingerbread expect your sd card to get wiped, do a backup asap.
Keep me Fascinated.
I am having the same problem

[Q] Clockwork Recovery only see's my internal storage.

For some reason unknown to me, CWM only see's my internal storage. Also, when I try to Wipe Dalvik Cache, it gives an error:
E: unknown volume for path [/sd-ext].
I am wondering if maybe this is maybe causing some sort of issue even though I wipe everything three times...

I wouldn't sweat it. I've had this issue as long as I can remember flashing on my note (a whole two months) and it hasn't caused any issues that I've noticed. If it's a good release, mine works the same as everyone's. Same with a buggy release, same bugs as everyone else. The sd-ext issue when formatting dalvik cache hasn't caused any (extra) bugs for me.

I would use TWRP instead of CWM.
Did you try to fix permissions though in CWM?
I did try to fix permissions, and it said it succeeded, but still hasn't resolved the problem.
I'm not sure if it's an issue per se, based on one of the above posters. But it is annoying none-the-less, so if someone knows a way to fix this I'd be much obliged.
Also, what is TWRP?

The best way I can think of twrp is its cwm except for a lot more functionality with a more friendly user interface. You can flash it via goo manager app in play store which will overwrite your cwm as your active recovery.
As far as the card is concerned, I would start by...
Backing up w/e before starting
Plug into PC via in phone or memory card reader. All that is important is that your PC can see it.
Use the windows built in diskpart utility to clean it partition it and format it.
Let me know if you need the diskpart syntax, its from command line.

I assume that doing this will leave CWM so that I can re-install CM10?
Is CWM stored on some other storage then internal storage? Some other memory chip or something?
I'm having this issue with CWM too, it's kind of driving me nuts cause it used to see both cards just fine before, and I don't like filling up my internal card with all my roms & radios. I'm kind of scared to use TWRP again though after what happened with my GSII. In short- I have reason to believe TWRP bricked my phone. I had just gotten my Note & was getting my GSII ready to sell(clearing data, formatting storage, etc). I booted into TWRP(which I'd been using for months, so it wasn't user error) & did a factory reset there too just to be safe. It seemed to work fine & gave me the "rebooting" message, and then.... nothing. Black screen. No boot, no recovery, no download mode, no signs of life whatsoever. I had to send it to Samsung to be fixed.
Now, it could have just been coincidental timing, but I'm now understandably hesitant to use TWRP again. Has this happened to anyone else? Sorry to hijack the thread.
In CWM, have you guys tried to mount sd card.

There's an issue with the External SD listing coming up under the root emmc folder, rather than under Internal. Have y'all checked there for your External SD? This applies to CWM and TWRP.

Official Samsung Gallery app crash with error "not enought space" , google music dont download music with the same error .
The other strange thing is that i can install new app , but if the app tries to write to internal SD i give write error .
I have installed CWM and formatted the mmc ; factory reset , wipe and reinstalled all with Odim but the problem persists .

I think i have had something similar, have you a ext sd card fitted?
My problem is that when the apps is moved to SD it will show it moved to USB storage (in file size info) but its actually moved to ext SD. If i do the same without the card in, i will get your error message.
its so feeling like a blonde moment, I even went back to official ICS and was the same..... (not as i remembered it working).
One moment i thought it was the emmc bug where photos wont be saved but they are fine..... phew.
I'll be interested to see if this is a problem or i am having a blonde moment and cant remember how the storage works.
cheers

finally I solve the problem, the internal SD memory (EMMC) at one point was mounted in read-only mode because vfat was corrupt, so when an application tried to write to that partition the internal SD was remounted in read-only. It is therefore not a problem with the ROM JB Samsung but from years of installations of different ROM and especially by removing the battery to turn off the phone when it crashed.
to solve this ANNOYING problem , I have installed the kernel-Philz cwm6-XXLSJ-OXX-3.1 , and copy to external SD AROMA File Manager ; from recovery i have check the file system with fsck.exfat ( fsck.exfat -fR / dev/block/mmcblk0p11 ) ; This command will force a file system checkand will automate the recovery / removal of corrupted files .
Since I followed this procedure, the problem was no longer presented.

Well, I am in this annoying situation (with official jb, but the problem is the same) but I don't know how to run that command on Aroma's terminal, it says "sh: fsck.exfat: not found". From where do I have to run it? do I have to install filechecker before?

If I remember correctly, I had the same thing a long time ago. I could only solve it by a format (after backing up first). Maybe someone knows a less destructive method?
Edit: my problem at the time was caused by some error resulting in the storage being mounted read only. The format was needed to remount it writable. If you actually have enough storage space left, you may be having the same issue.
Thumbnails take up alot of space. Clear them. Look through files delete ones that are no good to you :thumbup:
If you can install Link2SD you can check where you haven't enought memory an do some automatic cleaning, maybe it will help.

How did you unmount your sd? Go into recovery and mount it.in Storage and mounts. See if that works.
I remember some more now of what I did when I got the same errors as the OP. It's a really long time ago... Maybe it gives some more hints.
I used USB mass storage and a connection to my pc. I had an error on my internal storage, which made the internal storage read-only. But opening it as mass storage on the pc made it temporarily writable again. This allowed me to remove all files, solving the problem. I think that at this point I did a format and factory reset, just to be sure and get back to normal.
