Hi,
I have a MTK6575 tablet which is now bricked after trying to resize the data partition with Meos app. Its name is ED88 and it has 512mb ram and 4gb of internal storage.
Essentially I can enter in recovery console but there is not much I can really do there... I tried to restore the user data backup I took before resizing but it does not help, I guess that's not supposed to help with the partition problems. Just wondering is there some sort of tool that would help me to redo the partitioning... or any other way to fix that...
The USB connector is broken but I was able to solder the power pins, just good enough to charge the battery. So, I am looking for a solution based on microSD flashing.
Many thanks for any suggestion.
Sorry for the bump...
Anyone can tell what options I have to repair the data partition by injecting a ZIP'd script on microSD?
Thanks.

Need help/advice. I updated my phone with the newest Fresh Evo LTE 5.3.1 and the radio firmware. And after rebooting...noticed the Damaged Phone Storage notification. At first I thought it was no big deal cause it was the micro sd card. But then I found out it is the data/second partition on the internal phone storage. I tried to erase the phone storage...but that does not work. I am thinking of trying to restore back to stock and hoping the stock image restores the second partition.
Do you know what might of happened? And any options on trying to fix this problem?
You most likely need to reformat it. Best method so far seems to be booting into twrp and mounting the internal sd to PC and formatting it. Unless there's another cause, I don't know of any issues so it would help to wait for someone who has has to deal with anything similar before taking my advice

Thanks that worked...mounting to my PC in TWRP and formatting. Lost all my pictures and videos...will teach me for not syncing to one of those cloud storage services
Just make it a habit to back up your cards. Its always a good habit to back everything up
this just happened to me after a hard reset...can you show the exact steps i cant seem to figure out how to mount this?
Reboot to TWRP and look for mount, make sure it's set to internal and mount storage, in Windows a dialog should pop up saying that the card needs to be formatted
my phone is samsung a9 . ihave found that my phone storage is reduced from 127 gb to 7.95 gb and my sd card got damaged what can i do for this
Hey guys, figured this would be a good place to ask. I got this mirror off ebay:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/5-Android-4-...Monitors_Cams_Kits&hash=item2c87701b25&_uhb=1
It's pretty neat, but it has a pretty modified version of 4.0.4 and it's kind of a pain to get around some limitations. Maybe someone with more knowledge can guide me a bit:
1) I managed to root it and install gapps which work
2) i figured out how to get into recovery, but no volume buttons so all i can do is select reset
3) i can use ADB and connect it to my computer
Issues:
- i would like to install clockwork touch, but since it was never developed for it, i seem to be SOL.
- it has 8GB internal memory, but something is off, the "system partition" is 250mb and seems to be the only partition the OS thinks as of internal. Oddly enough the other 6GB also show up as internal in storage, but apps will install by default to the 250 partition, which limits me quite a bit. Connecting to the computer will lead to the 6GB partition. I don't get it. Moving apps to the 6gb partition shows them as "on sd". It has a micro sd slot which shows it as "sd"
- i cant for the life of me change the default launcher which is made by them and garbage
If anyone has some ideas, shoot. First thing would be figuring out a way to backup and restore, without that, i don't have much courage to mess too much with it.
Thanks for reading!
any news about this one ??
can you install any rom on it ?
Hey everyone
I have recently bought an android tablet with KitKat and 16 GB internal storage.
But there were just 1gb available memory for installing apps and the remaining 11 GB were USB storage.
As I didn.t like this I tried to partition flash memory with mini partition tool wizard home(or sth like that I donno the name exactly).
I have partitioned the flash memory as following: 3gb for internal storage(fat32), remaining memory for USB storage and 8mb as ext2( I completed this after a tutorial).
Everything was done ,I applied and then I reboot my tablet. When I entered link2sd said that cannot detect my partition. When I get to storage information I realized that I still had 1gb internal memory, but 445mb USB storage. I was a bit panicked so I tried to wipe data, but didn't work. When I tried to repartition the flash memory with mini part tool , the computer couldn't connect to my tablet storage.
I have lost my internal memory(most of it) and now I want to recover it as it was stock.
Plsssss help me I have root access and I think there is a way to fix with root explorer but I don't no it so hopefully you guys understand my issue and help me.
Thanks

Are you rooted?
Edit: nvm you are I see.
You have to use an external SD card for link2sd, does not work with internal storage.

Why would you repartition your storage to a windows (fat32) partition? This is a Linux based system running on ext4. You may just have killed that partition without redoing your device from the boot loader up.

OK I know that but is there any solution to recover my internal storage partition?
I used diskinfo and I realized that my partitions exists but they cannot be mounted.

You will need some sort of default rim update with the correct partitions. It will wipe your device if you can find one. Which depends on the device. You. At have corrupted it beyond any repair you can do. Check the oem site as you. Ever stated what device it is.

OK don't take this the wrong way but you really seem to have no idea what your doing. No you can not fix a partition issue by replacing some system files. You messed the base system up. I would go to the oem site and forums and see if you can find something that will help you. Basically you will have to flash a rom from the boot loader. This should fix your issue. But with it being a minor brand device you may spend a long time finding it but I wish ukulele luck.

Oem stand for original equipment manufacturer. A google search may find it as I have never even heard let alone seen this device.
Now if/when you get it fixed I would advice you to do your proper research before doing something that could leave your device bricked and void your warranty. Age has nothing to do with it. My sons are the same age and know to spend a few hours or even days researching an issue before trying anything. Flashing your device is not an easy, no risk thing to do. It holds many risks as you have found out. I would read up on Linux a bit

I know age has nothing to do ,it was about I didn't no things like I need to reflash device to restore partition. I have great experience with android and flashing Roms as I have plenty of devices. I change Roms weekly tasting their features. Whatever my dad is working in it but he's on windows.
I have found a possible solution to my prblm after few hrs of googling== I found with disk info that I didn't make any partition, their just unmounted. Nows da big question: is it a way to mount them ( I found out that I could merge partition kernel source- or srh like that -)
My tablet is a copy rebranded after onda 711s==allwiner a31
Hey Everyone, I'm a long lurker here but I really need some help. I'll try my best to keep it short.
Yesterday I deleted a folder from my internal memory on my moto g 3rd gen that wiped the internal memory and my SD card. I was able to recovery my sd card completely using recuva by connecting it to my PC using an adapter. My internal memory on the other hand doesn't mount as a mass storage as you guys probably know so recuva is useless. I was using This guide but after hours of not being able to retrieve any mmcblk files that weren't the size of 0 I gave up. Instead I made a nandroid back up using TWRP recovery.
So my only question is, am I able to go through a variation of the same steps as the guide I mentioned to be able to use recuva with my TWRP backup or will I have to do something completely different? If so what do i have to do?
also, I've tried apps like disk digger and undeleter but I don't think they do a very good job. Thanks for the help.
I HAVE A GIONEE S PLUS ON RR5 ANDROID 7.1.0, ive used the phone for quite a long period of time now, i decided to sellout so i can save money to get a new phone for my mum, in these phone i have 32gb memory card which i formatted it to be used as an internal storage, today i backed up all my application and the data through titanium so i can restore after i get a new phone to use, all data was successfully backed up, and i removed the memory card and reset the phone, as im typing this im crying with a heavy heart my memory card cant be seen on computer or my samsung s8 (say i should reformat its corrupted) please i need help how can i get my stuffs back atleast my titanium backups of apps and my contacts and sms threads. pleaase some should help me out on this. i really need help

It's not Android that makes an external SD-card ( by default formatted as FAT32 - so readable by any cardreader ) in part or in whole unreadable: It's you, the user , when you decide Android should use external SD-card's storage capacity in part or in whole as system memory. This adopted memory uses the Ext4 file system and 128-bit AES encryption.

Done with it, couldn't find anything in the Memcard, just few empty folders, so I decided to create an image off of the card, and I saw actual 12gb which is the total amount of space I remembered my data consumed when my phone is still alive, please help me with any tutorial or step by step so I can get my stuff back i think all of them are hidden. And can't even be viewed not extracted......?
