Try formatting the storage using the phone
The format system of the pc is different to the one in the phone
If it doesnt help try a factory reset
Dont be scared the factory reset should do the trick
Hope i helped

I flashed few different ics roms, but none of them could recognize internal or external sd card, when I use file expert, it shows me sd card in 0, and I even could not open storage option in settings, it just kicked me back to the home screen. When I flashed back to 2.3.6 roms, both internal and external sd card came back. Is there anyone else has this strange problem too, and how to fix it?
Great appreciated if someone can give a little bit help!
Looks I am the only one has this problem, anyone know how to fix this?
Did you wipe when flashing?
Have you tried to format your internal storage in recovery?
May be you did something wrong? On 3 different roms have same issue, strange. After install new rom, when phone will boot for first time, go back in recovery do a factory reset. Also I suggest you to go in recovery and format you storage

The external SD is mounted under mnt/emmc in ICS.
On behalf of thbis, does anybody know how to make the music app recognize mp3s in this directory?
why is it when i do a factory reset or try to wipe my phone, install a fresh ICS, there is still files and folders left over from previouse app installations e.g Zedge folders are still on my phone with wallpapers i have downloaded, or whats app folders when i have not used that for aaagres, ive wiped the phone throught the ICS menu and via recovery?
thanks in advance

The files are stored on internal storage. You don't need wipe this storage.

You can wipe sdcard storage external from rom or recovery. Usb storage is your internal sdcard.

Just go to settings/storage and check. Usb storage is your internal memory, I think.

Insrrt ur memory card in some Nokia device. . Den go to gallery in Nokia phone and go to memory card. It will ask u to format it press yes and format it. I tried it and it worked .. u can also try it on ur own phone go to settings / storAge unmount SD card and erase it and it will be formatted ... both the methods should work for sure.
Please press thanks button

SD card partitioning
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning This application worked for me. make sure to backup your data to pc so you can restore it to SD card. Also check to make sure that the pins in the micro SD slot inside phone are making good contact, I had a problem with the center pin. Good Luck!
try gparted on linux
Hello guys just got myself a pre-owned i9100 s2 running on ics 4.0.4, i wanted to know how much internal storage is the phone meant to have? I connected to my laptop and in explorer it tells me i have 6.87gb free of 11.4gb. I am a little worried as i was expecting it to have more internal storage than that (10gb +), i currently don't have any thing important on the phone.
I was wondering is it safe to factory data reset the phone via Settings>Backup and rest>factory data reset? and also do i need to tick the "format usb storage" option?
I am hoping to get as much storage space as i can. Thanks

Goto Settings - Storage - Erase SD, done.
You don't need to factory reset, just do that.

Do the same under internal storage.
Format internal storage will get yr full storage space back
If not last option is flash a safe kernel n then do factory reset.

Once you nuke your sd card (format it) everythings gone!!! End of story. Thats why its important to use cloud storage or in my case that and a flash usb drive everything thats backed up on to your sd card once you format it do a factory reset its gone
