Can one of the experienced devs please tell me how I can rename the internal SD card back to Phone when mounted in a windows machine?
Currently when I connect via MTP it shows as "/mnt/mmc/Downloaded Data" instead.
I have searched and this is happening on a couple of ROMs and not just my home build.
The other option, what am I removing that is causing this?
I've the same problem. I'm on JB dragon's rom .
Can someone with the problem try this fix and see if it works for them.
Please back-up first and post back if it works or not.
Thanks for trying
Not working

I have the same problem with my Galaxy Note, this is really gonna be a problem, as I can't view all my files in PC... The files shown in PC are not complete. So if this is not solved, the only choice will be permenantly switch to Mass Storage Mode.
I got this issue after updating my own Rom from XXEMA2 to XXEMR2, the internal memory now appears as "mnt/mmc/Downloaded Data" instead of "Phone", and I doubt the solution is the storage, because restoring the EMA2 backup (with twrp) I get back the Phone label in MTP.
no other solutions out there?
Update:
after few restarts, and cleaning the MediaStorage, now it is back OK

I faced the same problem installing Phoenix rom on Samsung Galaxy Note2 and corrected this way:
1. wipe data factory reset on CWM
2. Wipe cash partition
3.format system, data on mount and storage
4. install rom through aroma installer selecting full wipe.
Hello! Wipe didn't help me in this situation, but I found another way. You need to copy the folder "kies"(system/etc) from the official firmware.

I am new to Android and recently bought a Tab2 10.1 (SCH-I915). It is rooted and I deleted the system/etc/kies folder thinking it was remnants of the stand alone Kies program that I found out is not compatible with my device after having installed it . Now I have the same problem with internal memory showing up as /mnt/mmc/Downloaded Data. when connected to PC. Can someone send me a copy of the system/etc/kies folder so I can replace it?
I looked for a stock firmware for this tablet and can not find one to extract the folder from. I tried the firmware for a SCH-I925 but the folder contains different files and does not correct the problem.
I also did a factory reset but that did not replace/re-install the folder. It needs to be from a SCH-I915 model I suppose, Please help, If you have a SCH-I915 and could copy the entire folder and send it as an email attachment or .zip/.rar or if someone has found a place to download the SCH-I915 firmware I can extract it myself......
I know this thread is a bit older but hoping someone has a solution as this is the only place I found with any information about this.
Thanks for your time

Backup anything important, factory reset, clear cache & dalvik in CWM recovery. Followed immediately by flashing ROM.
If you're stock and not rooted, factory reset after backup.

2. Dialer *2767*3855# to master reset

As stated by JJE, maybe the SD card is corrupted, back up files on your pc then reformat the card using pc and then replace the files?

I have scanned with anti virus have done disk check on it . Done master reset. Follwed by flash stock rom then checkrom again . Have formatted sd via pc and via recovery i have done everything everyone has suggested just does not work . As i said it was fine . Then i went to look at my albums then they was gone without me touching any setting or changing anything. Just simply opening gallery. And also as stated my phone would not ring or alert me to msgs as they have gone to . But i can still see everything in the same folders / PAths etc with root explorer

ok right i have done it all again gone back to complete stock , hard reset , formatted everything sd cache etc via recovery and formatted sd on pc .. went back to stock again after just gone through all the process to get checkrom back . still cant see pics in gallery even tho i can see them in files and root explorer . even moving them and then copying them back to the correct folder they do not show . also done the same for all ring sms alarms and notification tones .. still cant see them by selecting alarms ring sms etc tones ...even taking pics now wont save to gallery they just vanish . to the correct folder but dont show in there
I think your system cant find sd card. It is maybe hardware problem.
Or recovery file is wrong.
Do you have only 1 recovery file? If not, try other file.

what do you mean do i only have one recovery file ????
Sorry for my English.
In Korea, final solution is flash moviNAND ROM. It will be clear perfectly. It is some different between stock rom and movi rom.
Back up your sd card data. And try it.
But Im noob and also not good at english. Sorry

Hello!
My GT-i9100T is my first android phone, I've been using for two months and I love it. This afternoon I decided to root my phone (I have never rooted or installed a custom ROM on this phone before) using this method, and I downloaded all the files and followed all instructions. When I selected 'apply update from external storage' it took a little while and gave me this error: 'E:unable to mount /sdcard (No such file or Directory)'.
I searched online but I couldn't find anything helpful but I did factory reset my phone and yet it still didn't work. Can anyone help me?

i think u should have put the files in ur internal sdcard not external, please check by doing so and see
ps - alternatively u can put the file's in ur cache folder and select 2 install the same from cache in recovery and see
Thanks for the swift reply!
I don't have an external SD card and I've never used one.
EDIT: I can't do that because the cache folder is inaccessible.

You need a physical external sdcard in order for this to work.
If you're in need of root just flash a CF-Root kernel..

Hey,
I installed cyanogenmod 9 on my gt-i9300, the installation went smooth, but then I had the great idea to install the Ninphetamin3 kernel as well, it turns out that they are not compatible with one another(or I did something wrong), now the phone starts up and keeps looping at the cm9 boot animation. I have no back ups on the internal sd card as I did these two actions at the same time, and the phone cannot read my original stock rom.
I might have accidentally deleted them in my haste(tried following a youtube fix that did not work9
question…..Can I put the cm9 rom and gapps on a micro sd, then plug it back into the phone and reinstall it this way?
btw this is my first android mobile, and I am using an osx system to root and any information on how to fix this problem via an osx system will be greatly appreciated.

Did you try wiping cache and dalvik cache?
99% of the time, wiping cache and dalvik cache will solve your bootloop problems and force closes.
Hey
Yepp I tried all of those, still no luck, will try with the micro sd later about 2am here in sthlm and I need some sleep before the old job...
I will update to say how it goes...
Ninphetamine kernel is a Samsung kernel, it is not compatible with CM9.
Why don't you just reinstall CM9?
hey,
That is what I would like to do, but I flashed cm9 with rom manager, and since my phone is stuck looping and the boot animation I cannot reco it from there. I tried doing it from clockworkmod recovery and cannot find the rom in the file system either....so my plan is to pop a micro sd into my computer transfer the files onto that, then pop it into the phone again and attempt to do it this way... Hopefully it can be done.

I got everything back but when I go to the play store on my computer it no longer recognizes my mobile, but
if I access it through my mobile it does is there any explanation for this?
Not a big deal but it would be nice to reinstall apps and some paid apps again without having to pay for them again..
any ideas?
Perhaps something to do with the baseband on cm9?

Does that mean if I restore the stock rom(no intention) that the store would recognize the phone again?
Just use your computer and flash stock rom to your GS3, that's how i solved similar problem with GS2 when it was looping.
Odin is fairly easy to use, tons of instructions online, finding right stockrom online might be time consuming.
Backup your phone ALWAYS! With cwm, i have big list of backups always ready, everytime you messing with new roms, kernels or what ever changes you make, it's worth the time, trust me.

Use galaxy s3 toolkit to backup your firmware to pc,look in development section.
And ALWAYS backup your imei nr(EFS folder) use K-TOOL from market(free) or EFS pro(pc)
I was using Android Revolution HD 4.1.2 and decided to update to 4.2.1 (bad decision!). The installation all went okay but then i noticed my files were missing however there was no free space after extensive searching i found that all my file on the internal SD folder had been moved to /data/media/ from some strange reason. So i decided to move them all back however, my memory began declining till there was no more space, I found a folder in /storage called emulatedSD which had two folder called 0 and legacy which within them also had copies of my SD memory. This was all getting too confusing so I decided to flash back to 4.1.2 however recovery was somehow reading the SD memory from the root folder not the /sdcard folder. So on restarting it its stuck in a boot loop (repeating the samsung animation anyway).
I was hoping someone could guide me on how to recover my phone back to normal, I don't know if reflashing a stock rom would work as its the root folder that are messed up, please help!
In recovery format sd card system data cache and preload should give you an empty phone .
Boot to download mode and flash stock rom .

The folders legacy and 0 I think are associated with Siyah kernel and dual boot?
Where you using Siyah kernel? If so, you may have (almost definitely) messed that up so I'd suggest starting from scratch again anyway - as per the posts above me.

OP have you find it?
You both need to flash stock firmware in download mode with Odin as many times as you need to until your phone works normally again. If you have problems with Odin or flashes appear successful but the phone still won't boot normally, search for Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread & try the stuff in that thread. Specifically, If you're in a situation where flashes appear to be successful but the phone still bootloops, flash the 3 part firmware linked to in his thread (only if you defnitely have an I9100 though; if you have another variant, don't).
