and what rom did you restore? this is probably related to android 4.2.2 which moves your sdcard content to /sdcard/0 and when you return to android 4.1 this is not recognized anymore. i think it was in CM 10.1, there's some guide about going back to 4.1, you can try this but i don't know if it helps.
In worst case you maybe have to format you /data partition, but then all your personal data and sdcard content is lost.

had this problem once too, but i was going back to android 4.1 so i don't understand what messed up your /sdcard folder...
what should definately work is completely wiping your phone (all partitions including formatting /data again) and then do a fresh install of your rom using adb sideload. make sure you have the right kernel installed then.
maybe there's another solution, but i did not find any when i had this problem...

Hey,
Just flashed the latest SHOstock ICS build, and I wanted to make a nandroid backup of it. I loaded up CWM, and tried to hit backup, but after a second, it gave me E: can't mount /sdcard.
I've tried to restart multiple times, but nothing. The same error. Can't loaf nandroids either. Any way to fix this aside from reflashing with Odin?
IN CWM try to mount the sd card manually in i think "mounts and storage" tab or something that looks like that
Sorry, should have mentioned. I tried that. Didn't work.

I have the same issue, and I have an SD card in my device. (I just resorted to using internal storage) on 5.0.x and 5.5.x. It has to do with the directories changing from /sdcard to /emmc, or am I talking about a completely different already known issue?

If you don't... There's a reason CWM has options for backing up to "internal" SDCard...
I had the same problem backed up to internal and then moved it to external. worked like a champ.

I didn't realize it changed. Before flashing SHOStock2 I was able to normally do a nandroid backup and restore without the internal option.
Well, thanks for the help.

I made a point of making the partition tables consistent with the text in CWM - instead of internal/external being swapped as they are in many CWM implementations.
I'm embarrassed to ask such a stupid question, but I've been digging around for hours and couldn't find an answer. Using TWRP, I was attempting to flash MeanROM. I placed the ROM in my Dropbox and downloaded it to my phone using the default browser. Booted into recovery and began to follow the steps. I created a backup, did my wipes, etc. So when I was finally ready to flash, I went into Install and have no idea where the ROM was saved. I thought it would be easy enough to find so I didn't bother checking where it saved before hand. I also couldn't find where my Backup saved so I couldn't even restore from there.
Could you please help me find my ROM or backup?
Switch mount points, perhaps the Rom is on external and not internal

I don't have an external SD card installed. I imagine that the ROM is in the default saving location for the browser, I just don't know how to navigate there. And I have no idea what the default saving location is for TWRP backups.
Downloads from the stock browser goes to my external sd card in the downloads folder. There's also a downloads folder on my internal card.

So I did a system wipe and it looks like that's where I went wrong. The directions said to wipe everything but I guess I got carried away as it looks like it cleared everything off. The only thing under the sdcard folder is a TWRP folder. But when I press Install and then go into /sdcard/TWRP, there's nothing in there. Shouldn't the back up I created be in there?
Please tell me I didn't brick my phone my doing the system wipe.

You didnt brick, you just need to put a rom on the card and flash. If boot fails, you will need to flash kernel through fastboot

I don't have a BACKUPS folder under TWRP. Did the system wipe delete that too?

When I tried mounting my phone to my computer from TWRP, it shows up as a drive on my computer, but when I try to click on it, I get the following message:
The Disk in drive F is not formatted.
Do you want to format now?
Is it safe to go ahead and format and will that erase all that's left on my phone?

Great, I'll give that a shot when I get home. One last question, which parts should I mount to format? System, data, or cahce?
you only need to select mount and then mount as storage, everything else can be wiped in recovery

Fat32 format of my phone, computer finally recognized it as a functioning drive, transferred the ROM over, and flashed it with no problem. Loving MeanROM. Thank you so much for all your help.

Hi, I'm using the Dorimanx Kernel along with the Ressurection Remix ROM and I was wondering, can I format my internal sd card in any way? The latest version has bugged the storage opting in the settings so I can't possibly manage this that way.

When you say format internal storage are you referring to wiping it via rom or recovery?
If recovery have you tried another kernel?
If rom them why not change rom version??
By the way the word you was looking for was "pardon".

Am I automatically required to use the word pardon? Lolwut.
And when I say format internal SDcard then I mean wiping it clean so that only the necessary folders and files are remaining.

Well your internal SD is partitioned. When you wipe data/factory reset teh system partition is returned to default. You could then wipe the card you want to format when mounted via USB in Windows, all needed files would be re-created on fist boot of factory reset system afaik.
Remember to backup what you want to keep like photos/efs backup folder etc etc.
Reboot in recovery, go into "mounts and storage" menu and format the internal SD card.

Nice, thanks! Will this remove any files related to my rom & kernel?
Will this remove any of my important files and will I have to install the rom all over again? Or am I good to go?
Nope, but all your data and settings will be gone. It's like you started your phone for the first time.

Hi.
I have strange issue, i was listening to music from my phone when it turned off, i thinked that the battery discharged so charged it and tried to boot up but then i get an error "Encryption was unsuccesful" and it only allows me to format phone. When i click it Turn off my phone and boot it in recovery mode (TWRP) and gets some "E:Unable to mount'/data'" and "E:Unable to mount storage" and reboot to ROM with the same error.
If i manually go to recovery i get few "E:Unable to mount '/data'".
What can i do now? Any solution to it? I readed that if i change recovery i will be able to format data, but my pc don't recognise my phone while it's in download mode (in recovery pc see it). Please help me fast
I was using Temasek Cyanogen mod 13 v3.2
I suppose you had your microsd card configured as internal storage. Something gone wrong and probably card got damaged. Try to remove card before entering recovery.
