[Q] i9100 can't recognize internal and external sd - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I'm having a problem with my phone.
After an CyanDelta update, my phone couldn't recognize internal and external sd card.
I tried to to wipe/factory reset, and it still couldn't. Tried flash CM10.1 again, and nothing changed. Even using File Manager I wasn't able to navigate through sd cards. The only way to see sd card ( internal and external ) contents was in recovery mode.
After that, I tried to flash Ressurection Remix 3.1.3 ( AOKP ), and I can navigate through my sd cards and see its contents, but, when I go to Settings > Storage, it closes unexpectedly.
I'll try to flash stock rom to see if it changes something, but while I'm downloading it, does someone knows any solution to this?
Thanks a lot!
(and sorry if I posted it in a wrong forum, moderators please correct me if I'm wrong)

The solution is in the cm10.1 nightly thread. It's too late now, but you didn't really have to wipe anything.

[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

I would try backing up the card, then formatting. Not sure if it will work, but it's something to try.

Funny thing is I reformatted the card before flashing the rom just to be safe lol.

[Q] Unable to read SD card in ROM

Hey,
I'm unable to access the SD card via any form once im booted into the ROM.
I can view the SD card in CMW and read from it.
The SD card is accessible via a USB cable when unmounted.
I have flashed the phone with several different ROMs.
I have formatted the SD card
I have tried different SD card
All have the same result, unable access when in the ROM.
Has this happened to anyone else?
Any idea on how to troubleshoot further or ideally, anyone know a fix?
Hope you can help!
Cheers,
Will

Apologies, Currently I'm using CM7, however i have attempted to use Aura and Gingerblur with the same result.
i too am having the same issue. i am on whatever teh official .91 is. phone is unlocked/rooted. no special rom here yet. about to flash ninja .04.....
just curious if there is any fix out there that tells the phone to use it....
no one else experiencing this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated..
some more info, if I attempt to mount SD card in CM recovery I get the following error:
E: Unable to write to ums Iunfile (No such file or directory)
The external SD card in CM7 is at mnt/emmc not mnt/sd-ext.

MIUI problem - SD Card Safe to Remove

Hey all,
I was just wondering whether there is a fix for such error running on the latest MIUI build from their website. Whenever I turn on my phone, I would receive this message saying Preparing SD card, then it would jump into SD Card Safe to Remove. The phone cannot mount the SD card manually from Settings as the same thing will happen again. I am sure the memory card is not corrupt as both the internal SD card (16gb) and my external SD card (32gb) are both recognized in CWM recovery, although when selecting install from internal SDcard from recovery, it goes into the external.
Hope someone knows how to resolve this issue!
Thanks,
Nicholas

If you got the rom from their site then your best bet would be to ask on their site. No MIUI development is done here. Only translations

mmmm alright thanks (Y)
But just for other people, they released a fixed version of the ROM on the MIUI main site, not the MIUI.us site, that fixed my problem

[Q] HyDrOG3N-ICS - full internal memory

Hey folks,
got a little problem with the latest HyDrOG3N-ICS
When I go into the camera app, a toast says "Your SD card is full" ... well and this is simply not true
I read somewhere I should format the internal SD card ... whatever that means, but I can find it in CWM.
Is there anything I have to do before or after that ... besides making a backup somewhere else than on my internal memory ?
Hey I have the same problem I cannot take photos, does anyone have a fix? Sorry I'm a massive noob, tried to search but found nothing

Install ES FILE EXPLORER and explore all of the folders in external and internal sd card, you will get to know how much space is being consumed. If its just a camera problem, switch to "ICS Camera+" app and then try.,

sd card not available. cant mount sd card

Hi.. im new to this forum...
please help...
Yesterday I installed a custom rom (IllusionRom-2.5, 4.3) on my Samsung Galaxy S2. Before I had CM10.2, 4.3 installed.
for some reasons i wanted to install my previous ROM again, but now i cant access to my sdcard from CWM(v6.0.3.4). when i select choose zip from sdcard, i get
- 0/
- clockworkmod/
- obb/
- ++++go Back+++++

I cant even restore from a previous backup. I tried to mount sdcard from cwm and it says,
Error mounting /storage/sdcard1!. same error is displaying for sdcard0.
but i can access to both sd cards from laptop..
how can i fix this?
please help me.. :crying:
You're files are in /0 now. Install philz recovery and try again. Or flash a rom from ext SD card.
You could try reading the illusion ROM thread. Its not very long,and a large part of it is discussing exactly this problem. Or you could have read it before flashing,and you wouldn't have this problem to start with.
