Hi all,
I just installed Auxora 2.3.1.0, and everything is functioning fine with the phone except for the fact that the phone doesn't recognize that any storage is present on the phone. Under settings > SD and phone storage it says "Unavailable" for both SD and phone storage where it would normally show how much space is available.
Any idea how to fix this?
Not quite sure if I'm posting this in the right place... I would have asked it in the thread where I downloaded the ROM but I'm not allowed to post there yet.
Thanks in advance
i know 2.2.1 rom had a sd problem for me and i was on 2.2.1 port but from there i flashed another kernel over (deAD hourse) and it solved my problem
I would try that, but I have no way of flashing a new kernel because I can't put anything on the internal storage because the phone can't access it..
I'm now able to successfully mount the SD to USB while I'm in recovery mode so I can transfer files onto the SD, but no matter what I am unable to get the phone to recognize either the internal or external SDs unless I'm using stock 2.1 update-1...
Anybody have a solution to this?
This problem is getting ridiculous for me... the phone won't recognize the phone storage or sd card on any kernel or ROM other than stock 2.1. I've tried Bionix, Auxura, and just finished flashing Deodexed_KA7 one of these that will allow me to use my phones storage is 2.1.
I also tried applying the fix found in this thread, and it didn't work.
Anybody have any ideas on how I can get fix this??? I really don't want to be stuck with stock 2.1 anymore
Hi all,
I recently rooted my phone so I could install a custom ROM. I´m new with android and also with rooting. After reading a lot of articles about rooting and flashing a custom ROM, I decided to give it a chance. Because the CyanogenMod is very populair, I decided to flash this ROM. I rooted my phone with Odin adding the Siyah Kernel. This worked and I followed the manual on the CyanogenMod Wiki for I9100. I flashed CM10 with ClockworkMod Recovery. Everything went fine and I saw the great interface, which is a lot better than touchwiz.
But I could't use the camera app: No external storage available. A 16GB SD card is inside. It appears CM can't mount the SD. I also saw the internal storage: 1.97GB. But the internal storage has to be a lot more than that.
I might think that it has something to do with the encryption I did within Touchwiz. I haven't decrypted the file system before flashing the ROM...
Anything I can do?
Update: I went back to the stock ROM, and could acces the internal storage and SD card. Then flashed CM10 again, and everything was working well!!

I am too having this issue ever since moving to custom ROMs. Its not the ROM as its happened on RR and RB ROMs.
I find it happens when the phone crashes and needs to be rebooted by holding the power button down.
Sometime after a few restarts I am then able to get the internal storage to mount, other times I need to turn the phone off and leave the battery out for a while but its just happened and nothing I am doing is working.
I really hope someone can help.
Try dori kernel. Should Mount OK custom is either 8.xx or 9.xx
I am using Dori (9.33). Having said that it never used to be as much of a problem when I used to run Siyah.

Try 9.32 I use 8.32 and have swapped ROM this week about 7-8 times and have no problems.
my friend has samsung vibrant t-mobile he was running custom ics rom and the mobile gave error of encryption disk so he brought to me

i have even tried flashing eugene rom and later with jfd rom with repartition but still it shows the same displays samsung logo and then switches off
kindly help me out
Unfortunately he has been hit with the EU bug that plagues ICS ROMs on the gs1 devices. There is a workaround to use the external SD card. Some people have claimed to recover there internal SD but most are stuck without access. See this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24418319
Would you prefer my usual method of conflict resolution?

Hey guys,
Had a question, i have downloaded several roms to my ext SD card, my phone sees them and everything while i'm in recovery. My problem however, is that when i try to install one of the roms it just freezes up and doesn't move past the psrogress bar. I was running Clockwork recovery, and thats where the problem started, I was curious if i might had disabled something there. I switched to TWRP and still the same thing is happening. I would love to see if anyone has had this issue and if so if someone could help me out. side note i can flash roms just flash roms from my internal memory just fine..
thanks in advance...
Please please help me, I know it sounds pathetic but im nearly in tears due to how massive an impact this is having on my life!! :'(
Im willing to genuinely pay £10 via paypal to anyone who can help me fix my phone, I promise.
My phone is an LG Gt540.
I bought it 2months ago new on stock rom.
I managed to workout how to root it, and then upgraded its rom a few times over the next few days.
I eventually reached CM 4.2.1 rom, which is the highest available and worked well.
The phone has only 133mb internal space though, and so I needed something to increase the storage (using my SD card's space).
And so after many days of trying stuff I managed to find Mounts2sd.
I partitioned my SD card correctly (using mini partition wizard), and mounts2sd was working fine.
However 1 app didn't work, and so like an idiot I decided to re-flash the entire rom, wipe the sd-card, and try to restart from fresh.
However I endedup formatting; the SDcard, The SD ext, the System, and formatting everything in the menu in recovery.
The phoned bricked and wouldn't turn on.
But I managed to put my SD card in my laptop, have my laptop detect it as a 'device', and so was able to place the ROM file onto the SD card that way.
I then re-booted into recovery, and re-installed the rom.
I thought id fixed the phone, but clearly I hadn't.
And for the last 2weeks since, everytime I try to re-install mounts2sd, it just totally screws up and freezes up the phone.
I partition the SD card correctly each time, however when checking it in recovery it says SD-ext wasn't ever mounting (error mounting SD-ext) was the exact message.
I then tried to re-install a lower level rom (2.3.4 I think it is) onto the phone,
to then re-install CM 4.2.1 afterwards hoping that that would fix it all,
however the phone now wont detect the SD card at all!! :'(
The only way I could access the SD card normally is put it in the phone, plug in usb cable, it wont ever detect the SD card as a folder on my laptop like C: or D:, but if I use Mobile2go software from wondershare I was able to connect to the phone and access the SD card from there, and transfer files onto it that way.
However I now cannot do that, since when I try the phone will turn on but has error msg flashup every second saying something like keyboard has stopped working, and so it wont load the Mobile2go software, and so I cant connect to the SD card to put the 4.2.1 rom onto it.
I have tried placing the SD card into the laptop through the side-slot thing, and can access it via mini-partition wizard when I do that.
However the SD card is not being detected at all when I click on My Computer, and so I cannot place any files onto it! :'(
I seriously am so close to crying now, this has already had me in tears, as its so upsetting!
Please please can someone help me.
To summarise the things I need to be able to do (in order I guess) are-
1. Find a way of getting my phone to recognise and mount the SD card.
2. Find a way of getting my phone/laptop to detect the SD card and allow files (CM 4.2.1 rom) to be placed onto it so I can install that back onto my phone.
3. Find a way of being able to get the SD-ext to be recognised and detected as being mounted by the phone so that I can use Mounts2sd.
If anyone can help me do all those 3 things I will be so truly grateful and will happily pay £10 to you via paypal as a sign of my gratitude.
As this is just distressing and upsetting me so much.
Thankyou
Jessica

Hello and thankyou for your reply.
How exactly do I use 'kdz' to flash back to the 1.6 stock rom though please?
As I don't know any of these technical terms at all.
Anyone have their efs folder contents completely disappear?
This happened to me with my Sprint galaxy S 5 and I get a pop up saying the device is in " Factory Mode " and I need to switch it to user for it to work properly. The phone will boot with a stock recovery only but is useless due to the Factory Mode, it disables WiFi and causes numerous other issues .
Would greatly appreciate any input on this. It is all over the internet but nothing but no legitimate fixes after 30+ hours of research
Look at LG Swift GT 540 forum on xda, there are all tutorials, Now I cant post link for it bu google it "LG gt540 xda"
