Cant access files after flash! (SOLVED) - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

Hey, I just flashed my htc one phone using this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273376.
The problem is my phone starts up fine but I cant acess any of my internal storage through my pc. I also check in my storage are in my settions on my phone and it says unavaliable for my storage. I really need help solving this problem because ive tried everything and nothing seems to work. Im trying to flash using another rom but I cant access my files whatsoever so if anyone knows what is going on please help.
Thanks.
SOLVEDDDDD!

How did you solve it? I have the same issue and would like to avoid flashing another Rom just to move the data and then flashing back.

How did you solve this? I have the same issue and its causing me many problems with critical apps that need access to storage like the camera and dropbox..

Resolution would be helpful if posted
I've just flashed to the Bulletproof kernel and am experiencing no access to my sdcard therefore several features of my phone will not work. I cannot save files to the sdcard either but can view folders from my Windows computer. In recovery I can however browse to the sdcard but cannot save files when in recovery to the phone.
I've attempted to fix permissions and have wiped my phone countless times but am still having the issue. Any help on how it was resolved would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!!

Might be a silly thought, but have you enabled the unknown sources option...?
Lee
yep thats been done,
under Security > Unknown Sources is ticked
doesnt seem to be anyother settings that i could've missed either.
Hmm. Odd bug then. I can't help (or confirm) yet as I'm doing a system dump before flashing (LPH to LPQ, full wipe + internal sd format). Copying everything from my internal sd to the pc takes a little while, it was nearly full...
You've tried the nasty shotgun approach of clearing caches and fixing permissions...?

wrong thread
Working fine here. I did a wipe before install as it wouldn't work the first time I flashed.
Working fine here. I didn't wipe.
The only thing I noticed is that some apps, previously installed, didn't work. I uninstalled them and reinstalled them from the internal SD Card.
Do you have Root? Depending on how you flashed your phone, you may have lost root access and thus some apps that require root may not install.
i agree it is an odd "bug" not sure why it would do this.
when the install application screen comes up, only the cancel button is responsive.
also i can confirm i have root - i flashed CF_root strait after.

Have you tried unmounting SD card and then mounting it, I had a few issues like that and that fixed it for me.

Flashing back the stock kernel will actually solve the problem. For the case of rooting your phone, you can use:

Got stock kernel on, and rooted my phone using that method. Everything works fine.

"Couldn't capture screenshot. Storage may be in use."

My friend's TF201 has this problem but never had it back when he had rooted stock (.28, I believe). We decided to unlock, did nvflash, flashed TWRP, and then flashed EOS #43 with no problems. But suddenly we can't write to his internal storage whether it's by moving files or creating a folder. We tried deleting the sample photos in the pictures folder that Asus put there and we can't seem to delete them. When we tried taking a screenshot, the error in the title appears. It seems to me like something is blocking us from writing to the internal storage because it's "in use"... whatever that means.
I've tried Googling this topic and it's mentioned in a few forums but no one has a solid solution. The very few times it's been mentioned, people talk about relocking the device and then unlocking again. As far as I know we can't relock out TF201s.
Has anyone had this problem before? Or does anyone have any idea what this is all about and how we can fix this?
TIA!
Problem solved! The /data partition was broken so we had to do a complete full wipe. Thanks to everyone in #asus-transformer for the help!
I have found a solution. You have to format the /sdcard inside recovery. I also formatted the external sdcard, but I don't think that was the problem. I hope this helps.

I'm sorry. My TF201 has been bricked for a long time now and I don't recall what we did to fix my friend's TF201.
couldn't capture screenshot problem solved !!!
To solve the problem Make sure the saving directory is created.
create folder ..in SdCard/pictures/Screenshots

/mnt/mmc/Downloaded Data

Can one of the experienced devs please tell me how I can rename the internal SD card back to Phone when mounted in a windows machine?
Currently when I connect via MTP it shows as "/mnt/mmc/Downloaded Data" instead.
I have searched and this is happening on a couple of ROMs and not just my home build.
The other option, what am I removing that is causing this?
I've the same problem. I'm on JB dragon's rom .
Can someone with the problem try this fix and see if it works for them.
Please back-up first and post back if it works or not.
Thanks for trying
Not working

I have the same problem with my Galaxy Note, this is really gonna be a problem, as I can't view all my files in PC... The files shown in PC are not complete. So if this is not solved, the only choice will be permenantly switch to Mass Storage Mode.
I got this issue after updating my own Rom from XXEMA2 to XXEMR2, the internal memory now appears as "mnt/mmc/Downloaded Data" instead of "Phone", and I doubt the solution is the storage, because restoring the EMA2 backup (with twrp) I get back the Phone label in MTP.
no other solutions out there?
Update:
after few restarts, and cleaning the MediaStorage, now it is back OK

I faced the same problem installing Phoenix rom on Samsung Galaxy Note2 and corrected this way:
1. wipe data factory reset on CWM
2. Wipe cash partition
3.format system, data on mount and storage
4. install rom through aroma installer selecting full wipe.
Hello! Wipe didn't help me in this situation, but I found another way. You need to copy the folder "kies"(system/etc) from the official firmware.

I am new to Android and recently bought a Tab2 10.1 (SCH-I915). It is rooted and I deleted the system/etc/kies folder thinking it was remnants of the stand alone Kies program that I found out is not compatible with my device after having installed it . Now I have the same problem with internal memory showing up as /mnt/mmc/Downloaded Data. when connected to PC. Can someone send me a copy of the system/etc/kies folder so I can replace it?
I looked for a stock firmware for this tablet and can not find one to extract the folder from. I tried the firmware for a SCH-I925 but the folder contains different files and does not correct the problem.
I also did a factory reset but that did not replace/re-install the folder. It needs to be from a SCH-I915 model I suppose, Please help, If you have a SCH-I915 and could copy the entire folder and send it as an email attachment or .zip/.rar or if someone has found a place to download the SCH-I915 firmware I can extract it myself......
I know this thread is a bit older but hoping someone has a solution as this is the only place I found with any information about this.
Thanks for your time

Extract a stock ROM of your device, and replace the void.fstab on your device with the one in the zip.
This should do it.

can't delete any files with root access -SOLVED

Hi!
Im new here. I see that there are many experienced members here, and i hope that could help me solve the problem.
I have rooted galaxy s2, JB 4.1.2 and kernel siyah v6.0b5.But suddently my usb storage,sdcard0 and micro SD Card became protected.
I can't move or delete files. (error access denied) Can't download anymore from google play, and applications can't save on sdcard0 anymore.
But my phone is rooted and i can use all applications that i have installed.
Also when i connect phone with pc, and if i want to delete any folder, i get a warning 'the storage is write protected' (sdcard0). But phone is rooted.
I already did factory reset, and i try to format usb storage but files always come back. I also rooted again I've put all my knowledge, but i can't find a solution.
sorry for my bad english

Before installing im also deleted all permissions from system recovery (apollo kernel).
And then downloaded and installed from sammobile my stock firmware, but no luck.
Is there any other option, because I want my phone back?

i have the same issue right now. i need help. i dont wanna lose my phone...please does someone know the solution for this?
OP have you find it?
You both need to flash stock firmware in download mode with Odin as many times as you need to until your phone works normally again. If you have problems with Odin or flashes appear successful but the phone still won't boot normally, search for Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread & try the stuff in that thread. Specifically, If you're in a situation where flashes appear to be successful but the phone still bootloops, flash the 3 part firmware linked to in his thread (only if you defnitely have an I9100 though; if you have another variant, don't).
