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
Can anyone help me?

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?

Sorry - I don't have any more knowledge here, someone else will need to take over, whilst you are waiting I suggest you search and scour xda and google for answers :good:
Good luck
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).

ROOT BROWSER
I somehow copied root browser from pc to sd card, and then deleted most of folders on sdcard0. And suddenly all permissions disappear.
ah and Root Browser need permission from superuser before deleting something.

Hello!
My GT-i9100T is my first android phone, I've been using for two months and I love it. This afternoon I decided to root my phone (I have never rooted or installed a custom ROM on this phone before) using this method, and I downloaded all the files and followed all instructions. When I selected 'apply update from external storage' it took a little while and gave me this error: 'E:unable to mount /sdcard (No such file or Directory)'.
I searched online but I couldn't find anything helpful but I did factory reset my phone and yet it still didn't work. Can anyone help me?

i think u should have put the files in ur internal sdcard not external, please check by doing so and see
ps - alternatively u can put the file's in ur cache folder and select 2 install the same from cache in recovery and see
Thanks for the swift reply!
I don't have an external SD card and I've never used one.
EDIT: I can't do that because the cache folder is inaccessible.

then try the alternative ie cache folder option and see, since the cwm .zip does require an extsd since thats the one giving u the error while updating if i am correct

You need a physical external sdcard in order for this to work.
If you're in need of root just flash a CF-Root kernel..

Why? And you didn't exactly help by giving him the wrong information. Quite the opposite in fact. On the plus side, you've been thanked not once, but twice for giving that wrong information. Excellent.
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

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.

Dont worry, copy all data to ext sd card and try flashing it with stock ROM, unrooting your device may leads to hard brick. Flashing will wipe all data so make sure you have backup.

You either didn't root it properly or you have trojan apk (virus applications) anyway copy your data by connecting it to PC make sure USB debugging is ON, if you are still unable to copy data to PC, I recommend you to give a try for copy data from internal SD to ext-sd. If anyone of this method work for you please do a flashing or having trouble in flashing please go to service centre for repairing this. Still having problem please let me know

Sad to hear that, all you can do is send photos and other data via share it to other device and after finishing that, do a factory reset, if you still having the same problem try flashing it with stock ROM or else go to service centre and ask them to do a flash.
Hello, i need help on how to fix a bug ive encountered with my root. No matter what i do i cannot mount system as r/w, i cannot update subinary normally or with twrp, i cannot uninstall the subinary or any other root tools like busybox. I think i encountered the problem trying to flash an ota update using flashfire. So far nothing ive tried works, ive tried uninstalling from withing the supersu app, ive tried manually deleting the files but as i said my /system folder is locked in r/o mode. Ive tried factory reset and all that does is soft brick my phone. Please help and ask for any information that may be needed and i will provide it to the best of my ability. Thanks

Would you mind posting a link to the zip i need to flash, i did try flashing one named "UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.78-20160905010000.zip" but it didnt do anything.
Is it because i need to rename it? Also where should i place the zip before installation? I tried flashing from my download folder and the root of my external sd card and neither worked.

yes v2.78 is the correct one , it doesn't matter where you put the file but it's better to place it on your sdcard not ur internal memory

So what am i doing wrong for it to not work? While in twrp when i flash it it says that is succeeded but when i boot back into system nothing changes except the supersu app is gone and i have to reinstall it, but when i open it it still says i need to update the su binary.
Edit: thank you so much! for trying to help me but nothing is working. I posted my problems with a lil bit more insight in hopes that there are (no offense) more advanced users there that may know exactly whats wrong and how to fix it if its even fixable
Update - thread can be closed
Problem fixed, to fix the problems i was having i had to download the stock system files for my device and flash them, after that just installed the latest supersu 2.78 zip and remount problem is fixed.
