I am trying to mount sdcard/0, which is my internal sd card. I am using a CM10 rom and realized that /sdcard is now /storage/sdcard0 in jelly bean. I am the only one on the CM10 fourm who can't mount his/hers. When I go to settings-storage-usb storage, I click "mount sd card" and the phone freezes, then it says calculating and it disappears. My actual external-sd card is mounted perfectly and even the computer reads it, but not the internal. I have trying re-installing the rom, and now I cant access my backup either, CWM tells me something about bad MD5 sum? How do I mount the internal sd card/sdcard0? I cant use camera, dropbox, gallery, take screenshots, etc. I hope someone answers since I've tried asking on the CM10 fourm and no one answered, and all the other similar situations are for other devices, mostly Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Nexus.
The same thing happened to me but it was on the external sd. I formatted it with another phone. Did you try reflashing the rom?

First, thanks for replying! First time that happened to me. Anyway, yes I did try doing that, and it didn't work, apollo (stock music app) only reads my external sd music sometimes, but most of the time I will have to unmount and remount the sd card, and the device isnt confused on which is internal and external, because in storage-settings the usb storage is the one not mounted and the one under external sd is the actual external sd.
Try formating internal card after you install rom

I feel so nubish! I tried doing that right before I installed, but not after. This was all I needed to do, and no one else (on the other threads) will tell me. Thanks DZ!
I'm having very similar issues on an HTC EVO 4G LTE using CM10. The internal SD card shows up as "Internal Storage" under Settings > Storage, yet after tapping on "Mount SD card," it tries to prepare/calculate it, yet it goes back to the way it was. Using an external microSD card works just fine. I can't format the internal storage via CWM either, as it'll just say:
Code:
Formatting /internal_sdcard...
Error mounting /internal_sdcard!
Skipping format...
Done.
Been working on getting CM10 to work properly for a good 5 hours. Calling it a night!

Hey, so i have Leedroids honeycomb rom on the wifi only flyer, i flashed it etc with the sd card, but soon after it stopped working.
The card itself works fine in my mobile and my brothers card works in the flyer.
it just says "Space unavailable" there fix for this?
I tried formating it with minitool partition wizard which didn't help.
Have you tried pulling it out and reinstalling with a reboot? Or maybe try mounting the sd-ext in your recovery? Can you get to the ext-sd using a file manager like ES?
Hi I have a similar problem
These last few days all was erased from my external sd card. I have Leedroid 3.1, so I tried to install 4.3 to see if it is more stable, and I cannot seem mount the internal storage in CWM. It says not found, so I cannot try another ROM.
Bummer!

Yeah iv rebooted it, and tried it from recovery it just says theres no sd card,
theres no "ext-sd" but theres sdcard which leedroids rom uses so simulate a card storage or something, (uses tablets memory) actural sd card would be "sdcard 2" or somthin alone those lines.
If you open your file explorer/manager, are you able to access and browse the external sd card that way?
Also, I am running LeeDroid's ROM and my internal storage is shown as the "sd card" and the regular external sd is mounted as "ext-sd".

no, it doesn't come up, which is strange because my brothers card works so its not the flyer or the card (which also works in my phone)
i would normaly just put it down as "compatibility issues" but it did work, heck i installed leedroids rom from it, but just ordered a new 16gb card so its not the end of the world if its just not compatible, just seams strange
So I had a 16 gb external sd card in my rezound, realized that I would like more space so I bought a 32 gb card. The new card worked for about a week and no longer works. I have an sd card exploring app and it sees the files on the card but my phone does not even recognize the card is inserted.
Another thing to mention is that with the old card, my phone would not display the available space on it or give me the options to unmount and mount. Now when I put both of these cards in an sd card reader and insert them into my desktop the computer does not see that a card has been inserted. I have checked it with other mini SDs that I have and the computer sees them, so I don't know what gives! Any ideas??
P.S. I am running on the ICS 3.14.605.10 RUU
Sounds like you have a bad card, can you format it?

Well the weird thing is that both the stock and the card I bought are doing the same thing. And I tried formatting, but since I can't view the cards on my computer or phone I have no way of formatting.

If you have TWRP or Amon, mount USB storage and format from your computer.

I have the exact same problem. I tried switching cards and formatted the new one before I put everything on it. It still is missing after every reboot...Annoying, but at least it's still there....
Not sure if this is the issue but it may help to try:
If you are on GB firmware and running an ICS rom, download and flash this in recovery. It is a GB firmware patch and after you flash it, sd card mounting problems are fixed.
[Q] Can't mount external sd (Rootbox ICS)
I've been using RootBox ICS 1.8 with V6 and pdroid patch (made by autopatcher 2.1.5) for a while now, everything was fine until yesterday my phone was auto powered off a few times after the battery ran out.
I can't mount the external SD card now, it's recognised by the phone and I have the option to choose "Mount SD card", but it's not actually mounting the card. When I tap it, "Preparing SD Card...." will flash for a second, then disappear without actually mounting.
CWM is unable to mount the sd card either. Taking the battery and sd card out also doesn't make any difference.
What should I do? Will reflashing the rom help, or does it sound like a hardware problem?
It did happened to me and I think the yung mmc is messed up. Have you tried using it on other phones?
UPDATE:
Okay... it seems the sd card is busted. Windows can only detect 30MB from it (it's a 32GB card). Is there anything I can do before asking the shop for warranty?

Okay I did a dumb thing and hit factory reset from bootloader instead of hitting recovery. So now only twrp folder shows and I have to flash from my eternal sd card. When Im in the Rom (CM10) I have no internal memory. I recieve a need sd card message when I try to download from the browser and under storage settings it says mount sd card under internal but It never mounts. And in cm10 I cannot mount usb storage. Sooooo.... wth? Should I run an RUU or is there a simpler or less painful solution? HELP! Thanks!
P.S. Is this the answer from the F.A.Q?
"Help I flashed a new ROM/update/script and now I can't access my internal/external SD card Its OK, the SD card has been corrupted but you can reformat it with recovery itself or by using recovery to mount the card and formatting it by PC"

Sorry didnt see this but replied in the other thread you asked the ?. Yes you have to mount internal to PC and it'll tell you to format. Once you do all is fixed

lol yes
keep this one, remove the other one (idk how to)
Without any basic info, I would just simply suggest you to do a reflash, a clean installation, start from scratch.
Re: Internal SD Card not mounting?
Well I'm on the slimbean rom 4.2.2 build 2.5
Current, when I go to storage, it says that I have only 1.97gb of internal storage when I should really have 11gb.
I'm running stweaks with the ajk "everything works" kernel
In storage, there is a category called "USB STORAGE" under it, it says Mount SD Card but it's greyed out. And then it says "insert an SD card for mounting" meaning that my phone doesn't even think I have an internal SD card.
In CWM, of I try to Mount SD card, of doesn't let me and if I retry to format SD card, it doesn't let me

This happened to me once. I removed the card and put in my PC then copied all the data off as a backup. I reformatted the card and then when I put it back into my phone it mounted great. I then went back and moved all the data back via USB.

USB storage would be the internal memory, or internal sd card if you prefer, and SD card would be the external sd card which you must insert first before you can mount. If you will look again, you will probably see that it says device memory is 1.97 gb total space with usually 1.something gb still available. I don't know your rom and kernel real well, but maybe device memory is called internal storage? USB storage should say something like 11.36 gb total space.
So if the USB storage is not being recognized then the problem could be either hardware or firmware related. So did you flash back to stock, or reflash your rom or another rom? That would be the first step of troubleshooting.
you formatted your external sd card to do this?
Researching...
so i did some more looking around on the forums today and found out that there is a way to get back your internal sd card by running these commands
i opened up terminal emulator and ran these commands that i saw on another forum:
su
echo mkdir /storage/sdcard0 > /data/local/userinit.sh
chmod 700 /data/local/userinit.sh
reboot
apparently, after the reboot, your phone is supposed to have mounted the internal sd card manually.
however after trying this method twice and rebooting, i still have the same error and my sd card has yet to be mounted

nope, all it says is that internal storage total space = 1.97gb
SD card stoage space (external sd card) = 3.68gb (this is true becasue i have a 4gb external sd card)
theres nothing that says 11.36gb free total space

I got distracted when I was posting that and hit send before I was finished. I went back a few minutes later to finish it. The whole point was to say that the problem is either hardware or firmware related, and to troubleshoot it you need to flash back to stock, or re-flash your rom or another rom.
Also, assuming the mount commands you used in terminal are good working commands, it would point to possible hardware failure.

CM sometimes messes with the partitioning or something. I have almost no experience with CM so you will need to get some advice from the CM guys. Try posting in the CM user thread maybe. Also mention your memory question there as it could be related to CM, maybe.

hey i just saw something interesting. when i go to CWM and try to install from internal sd card, it says "E: Can't mount /emmc/" any ideas as to what that means?
SOLVED!
First off, i want to thank all of you guys for helping me out i couldnt have done it without your support and suggestions.
Heres how i solved the internal sd card problem:
Well, i tried to use odin but odin didnt work and then i used the cyanogenmod 9.1 stable build but that didnt fix it either
Heres what i did: Downloaded the Cyanogenmod 10.1 Nightly build for 3/29/13.
after flashing it in cwm (i put it onto my External sd card), i rebooted system, it loaded up and whatnot
and then it told me that my internal sd card was either corrupted or unsupported.
it also gave me the option to format it in order to fix any corrupted files.
so i formatted it and voila! its fixed
