A little help plz - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

After installing the new MIUI release by Lens and realizing I didn't wanna run it until it has more work done..I am unable to restore any backups or install any roms.
For some reason, when I try to a factory reset it fails because it is unable to mount /sdcard. When I select restore, I get nothing but a blank page. I can mount to my pc through recovery and I have a few roms I copied over from my computer, but they bootloop because I am unable to wipe. I've been flashing for years and never had this issue. Any ideas?
Ok I got it up and running CM10, but it refuses to wipe or mount my sdcard. I open my gallery and it just says "no external storage". What is the deal..

Sounds like a bad sdcard...

Thanks guys. it's not the sdcard tho, I've tried several.
This phone calls the storage sdcard 1 and sdcard 2.. somehting is seriously fried. It freezes, reboots. I'd stay away from MIUI if I were you =p

I can't even run a RUU back to stock because I get n unknown error even tho I followed all the steps.
What a Joke...

Exactly sdcard0 is your internal sd card which seems like it's corrupt. Sdcard1 is your external.

This is what I installed. Wish I'd made a nandroid before. This sucks...
All system data is gone too. Is there any way to get it back? Or am I screwed?
If you did not make any backup of some kind, then yes, it's lost forever. ALWAYS make a nandroid backup before installing a new mod or rom. It is standard procedure.

I don't think factory reset deletes the DCIM folder so you must of done something else.. even nandroid doesn't back that folder

He might have done a factory reset in settings instead of in recovery.

His pics may have been in sdcard and not sdcard2. If that's the case a system wipe would have definitely cleared them out.

You need to drop down the Notification bar and select to mount the Disk Drive.

Factory wipe DOES INDEED erase the internal storage along with contained pictures, but but the external storage card. Ask me how i know... Sorry this happened to you.

fyi you shouldn't of tried any of those mods with venom rom. the way things are handled in that rom are different then the average stock rom.
yeah I wish i hadnt. i still cant seem to find the internal sd though. it just shows the external in disk drive mode for some reason.

[Q] Clockworkmod won't flash ROM: "can't mount emmc"

I just returned my phone to stock using ODIN and Entropy's method. I was previously running SHOStock3v.1.3.5 and was having problems creating a viable backup via CWM; not sure why, I've backed up many times before. What changed recently is that I set the default backup format to "TAR" from "DUP" as mentioned here. After that, my backups went from around 17MB to 1.6GB. At some point, possibly even with that first backup, the process would hang while generating the .md5. I left it for about 1.5 hours one time and still it wouldn't finish; I got around this by holding the power button to reboot. I reset the default format back to "DUP" and my backup size went back to about 17MB, but still wouldn't finish generating the .md5. All of these backups seemed to be causing System Media Storage some severe heartburn, filling up the internal memory. Deleting the backups solved this issue, but I was left with a phone that I could not backup.
Finally, this morning I (regrettably) used ROM Manager to try backing up, not having seen the numerous posts about never using ROM Manager. So my phone became a brick, stuck in a bootloop at the Samsung logo. So now I'm at the point where I've returned the phone to stock w/root as mentioned above. I've also reflashed recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.3-galaxys2att.tar via ODIN. BUT, when I try to flash a new ROM I get an error message saying "E:Can't mount /emmc/".
I've looked at some similar threads like this one and this one, but they don't seem to contain the answers I need. I am about to attempt to wipe the sdcard using the dialer code *2767*3855# found in this post. Before I do that I want to verify that there isn't something less drastic that I could try first. Anybody know what's going on?
Eh sounds like you may have gotten the emmc brick.

Yuck. I did some research on that and it sounds mostly like what I've got (I have the ICS kernel - version 2.6.35.7). The difference between my situation and the one in a post I found is that my phone boots and acts normal, for the most part. I ran GotBrickbug? v1.2 and it verified that my eMMC chip is known to have the bug. I found a discussion thread for the Epic 4G on the subject which points to this fix, but it seems to be for those whose phones are really bricked... mine is not, do you have any suggestions on what I might try?
Well, the problem that caused it was in Samsung kernel source for ICS. Flash a custom kernel known not to have it and see what you get afterwards. Also, DO NOT do any memory wipes while on the stock kernel because then you will for sure get the bug, that's what causes it.

I resolved my issue, though it wasn't what I thought out was. For some reason when I selected "Choose zip from internal sdcard", CWM was trying to access the external sdcard, which I had pulled. The opposite was true as well. If my external card was in its slot I would have realized the switch around right away. My phone its back in business, I now have SHOstock3 installed and it's running just fine. Thanks for the help, really glad my emmc wasn't mangled!

Hmm, not sure why it would try and read from external. Anyway, glad you got it up and running again!

Same to my Phone
So if want to solve this problem, you must have one external SD card which conten Zip file. Right?

Not necessarily. You can put the zip file on the internal card, then you have to choose external card from within CWM. You may have to have an external card installed for that option to show up though. Or, if you put the zip on the external card, then you choose internal in CWM.

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

[Q] No service and Wifi Error

I have a T-mobile HTC Amaze running Android Revolution with 4ext recovery. Recently my phone lost cell signal and would not pick it up again. I tried wiping data/cache/dalvik and reinstalling the Android Revolution ROM but the problem is still there. After reinstalling the ROM twice the wifi won't turn on and just says ERROR. I tried going back into 4ext and now it started to give me an error "can't mount /internal_sdcard" when trying to choose zip from sdcard.
Anyone has any idea what's going on?
Thanks

Ok dude I think I know what's going on, then outlook doesn't look too bright either. It looks like your internal sd became corrupted and now it can't mount. So back up your internal sd, reformat, and put your stuff back in and see if it helps.
If that doesn't help I guess you just had a bad luck Brian moment. This internal sd problem happened to me twice already.
For the wifi error, that's probably because you dirty flashed ARHD over a perfectly fond ARHD. You should have just airplane mod'd it for a while or rebooted. When you wipe the cache don't dirty flash the entire rom for one simple problem. When you reboot after you wipe the cache, it just takes a minute to rebuild the 'blocks. '

Well when I connect the phone via usb, it shows up on my computer but none of the files I had show up in the drive, including the zip for the ROM. I most likely lost all my stuff but that's okay. How do I reformat my internal sd at this point?
I tried to do a clean install of ARHD by doing a complete format inside 4ext, maybe something went wrong along the way. So If I can get my internal sd to work, can I format data/cache/dalvik and reinstall the rom? will that fix the problem?
Thanks for your help

Ok the way to format the internal sd is in 4ext. I remember it being somewhere in the wipe section. Choose format sd then internal sd.
Here's a tip when flashing, use format all partitions except sd. This is better than wiping cache then dalvik then data. This method clears of everything but it doesn't touch your sd. This is how to comoletely clean install roms without errors in flashing.
And if after you flash it and see no bars, T-mobile is probably having a bad connection or doing renovations to their towers or something.

No SDCARD

Hey everyone and thank you for all the help its greatly appreciated!
So today i decided to flash CM 10.2 on my Evo. I was coming from CarbonRom and just felt like flashing a new rom today. Well everything went fine as far as flashing until CM booted up and then i realized holy crap i forgot the Gapps (I've f;ashed quite a bit of roms and usually remember to do this in recovery) and i quickly rebooted the phone to Hboot and accidentally hit "Factory Reset" the splash screen loaded and i freaked out again and shut the phone off and went into HBOOT again went to Recovery and then recovery told me that it could not mount the Internal SDcard. Now i can not access my back ups or anything. My phone still boots up and works but it will crash and re boot if i run any Google app i had on Carbon I.E. Gmail or Chrome. Im trying to restore my last CarbonRom back up to try this whole process again. Sorry if i skipped any info you may need. I have to be up early for work tomorrow and im just trying to get some sleep so my search on this site and Google wasn't really effective. I did how ever try to format the sdcard through TWRP and my USB but neither was able to detect the card.
Thank you again for all your help the Devs and this site are truly amazing.
Wait, so can you get into recovery?

So connecting your phone to your PC and mounting the internal storage to format from your computer was not successful?

Correct, my phone wouldn't mount the internal memory. My Computer would acknowledge that the phone was plugged in but nothing would happen. Even when I would try to enable the storage on the phone.
