While trying to get the external sdcard to be recognized as the phone's internal memory, I guess I mess up the "vold.fstab" while and now I cannot access the internal nor external memory. I also cannot mount the phone as usb storage to a computer.
The phone is a Spice Mi-500. Was curious about it and now I just messed it up. Is there any way I can access the phone's memory again so I can fix the "vold.fstab" file?
flash your phones stock rom.
I helped a friend to root his DX2 and in the process of coping the files off of sdcard I hit move instead of copy. Now I would like to put the files back, but it says there isn't any more room for them.
The phone has 619MB of internal space left and I didn't put anything in the MOT directory. I am presuming that the phone it reporting the internal sdcard space as MOT. And for some completeness the "hidden" files weren't moved and are still there.
try formating sd card
menu>settings>storage>unmount internal storage then format internal storage

Sounds scary. I'll have a go at it and see what I can find before hand. I figure if I format through the settings menu it should be right, right?
I figured it out. What I did was copy the files that were still on the internal space and saw that it was about 3.8GB. Way too big for what should be there. Then looking at what was in there (like I said, it's my friends phone. I didn't want to rummage through his stuff.) I found that everything was in the trash.
That's what I get for not getting sleep.
Hi,
I'm currently using JellyBam rom.
The problem is that when I'm using whatsapp, I can't download images, or create backups.
I think the problem is that the rom created a separate folder for the SD card, instead of mounting it in my internal memory.
How can I mount my external SD to my internal?
Or are there other fixes for my problem?
First of all, you don't need two threads for this, i recon an admin will remove it soon. Please only create ONE thread.
Om Jelly Bean, samsung made a seperate folder for your external sd files (providing that you have one) in mnt section. In you file explorer go to mnt folder there you will see an ExtSdCard folder. There you have all your external sd files.
You say you have problems with WhatsApp saving it on the external sd? If this is the case then just set the defaulr storage place to internal sd card?
Also before JB the external sd wasn't "mounted" in internal. The file was just located inside the sdcard folder. Now sdcard folder is sdcard0 and external sd is ExtSdCard as mantioned above
If you found an answer, dont forget to thanks
Or any further questions, just reply.

Thank you the quick reply.
How can I change it? Because it is very annoying!
I didn't know I created two threads.
My galaxy s5 started showing memory full when all storage programs said there was about 5 gb left.
I downloaded foldermount and it said it found the issue so it was going to repair it.
Well after I rebooted. The internal sd card(phone memory) is not mounting.
When connected to the PC, it shows 128mb.
on ES FIle explorer SDCARD shows "???" and when I attempt to open it ask what file I want to open it with, but with the program storage analyzer it finds the "data" folder just fine and lists all the files and folders within it.
In the phone settings options, it can show the amount of memory being used along with the media, mp3, apps, so the Folder is still there along with all the info, it is simply not mounting properly?
Thank you.
UPDATE: I found the path of where all my files are at, but the phone is not mounting it as the internal storage?
It is located at data/media/0 and mnt/sdcard0 or mnt/sdcard1 are missing.
* Aside from Phone being rooted, there were no other modifications
* Phone is running on original OS(as opposed to roms or such)
*There is not an external sd card in the phone
Folder mount will not do anything for you really without an SD card. After you use it to clear space you need to unmount all the folder it mounted to view what is actually in the folders. If not it will show the folder that it is linked to and look like it never worked. Changing your system data to SD data in your case keeps it in internal memory and does not free it up. You need to use folder mount with a SD card for it to help you. Saved me over 500Mb with it on my s5

Sorry, long story short,
My phone mnt/sdcard and sdcard links are no longer there. Is there a way to recreate the links? Certain apps are still able to function because they are using the actual link, device/media/ect, ect, /0/ folders as opposed to mnt/sdcard/
I saw on another forum that
su
echo mkdir /storage/sdcard0 > /data/local/userinit.sh
chmod 700 /data/local/userinit.sh
reboot
May help, but not sure if it is only for roms and not for original OS.
On another forum there was talk about recreating a syslink?
Solved:
Simply went to "system/bin" and erased the "sdcard" file and renamed the file "sdcard.backup" to "sdcard". Rebooted and it solved the issue.
im trying to rewrite my system so there is no emulated storage and so my phone reads my sd card as an actual sdcard to use for link 2 sd
