Hello,
I am new to this thread and to rooting. I have a T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S5, rooted, lollipop 5.0, with cyanogenmod 12. This Cyanogenmod does not recongize my external sd card at all. i have been googling this and trying different things but nothing has worked so far.
1) My primary concern is to enable my external sd card
if 1 is not possible, i can settle for 2
2) make my external sd card as my "internal sd storage"
The internal 12GB storage is just simply not enough.
If anyone is able to help me, i would GREATLY appreciate it.
If a moderator can move this to the proper area please do
Thank you everyone!
why not try the latest nighlty + latest opengapps? both are very stable..

Hello,
I am very to flashing of ROM's on my Galaxy S3 so im still learning about things (so pretty much im a rookie)
As in the subject line, i have the latest UltimaROM v5.0.2 installed on S3 and its working perfectly and its rock stable. Really happy with it.
However I do have a quick question regarding extSDcard.
The phone somehow reads my extSDcard as an internalSD card and vice versa for the internalSD card.
In the camera when i have extSDcard (which is internal SD card) chose as the storage, the camera app FC.
While installing the ROM i did select the HyperMOD for the camera and i didn't select the option of Internal2External SD Script option.
Can anyone explain why this is happening and also how maybe i can i have the storage the normal way perhaps?
Thanks guys.

I don't know what this rom is based on but if it's Samsung based you can try to take the vold.conf and vold.fstab file from a stock rom and put it with root explorer in folder etc.

Try selecting the internal SD card instead

Thanks guys.
I just reflashed the ROM again since i wanted to try different mods and this time around i made sure i didn't chose the interna2external sd card option.
things are the way they were before.
thanks for all your help.
I have a problem. This problem is the reason I stopped messing with JB roms a few months ago. I would try AOKP and CM10 roms both. I don't remember which one had the sd card not reading, but the other one wouldn't have data. So I gave up. I wondered back today and found out that the ota had been leaked. So I installed ss3.07, and used lightwave's util to get a jb kernel so I could dual boot. Then I isntalled hater's blur JB rom. I am running into this problem again where it says no sd card is inserted. I have tried different sd cards, and it reads fine on my ICS roms. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.
OH, additional news, when I goto my files app, it doesn't list any internal storage either....but I can still download apps from the market. It says device storage is unmounted.
Trying to get to storage in options FC's settings
To clarify some more things I've figured out, if I'm running a JB rom designed to run on ICS kernel, I can see the internal storage but not SD card. I can also access the storage settings menu. It just reports my internal storage, and says mount for sd card.
On a JB kernel and rom built from the the OTA leak, phone doesn't report any internal or sd card. This happens in any JB rom I try.
I hope this isn't too confusing. I would love to run JB some time soon. Thanks again.
I figured someone might at least have a joke or useless comment :/
I've had problems similar to this. I would take everything I needed off of the sd card and format it. Hope this works.
Tried that. Along with different sd cards. Thanks for the reply though.
Hello all, i have a small (big) problem with my camera on my phone (S2 obviously) but what happens is when i go to use the camera it says "your SD card is running out of space. Change quality setting or delete some images or other files." but it is storing on the SD card (obviously) which has about 15GB left and has never had any problems, and i don't think it is the rom as it does it with all of the JB roms i have tried. i have no idea why it is doing this but if anyone does could you please help. Many thanks in advanced. Yours MBrown

Is it trying to store it on the internal SD card? I think your ROM might be bad, what ROM are you using?
There is not enough infomation in there.

Hello everyone im new here...
I have been at it for hours, and i have finally managed to root my tablet. Its a samsung galaxy tab 3.7.0 wifi only with 8GB of internal storage, most of which is taken up by system memory. Its model is the SM-T210. I have a few questions and i would be very grateful if you could answer them...
1) How can i move apps to my sd card?its a 16gb sandisk...i have already tried folder mount, apps 2 sd and APPMGR 111, but they are either not compatible for my device or dont work/let me install them?
2)ive rooted my tablet...now what do you reccommend i do?
Thanks everyone, in advance.
1) Give Link2SD a try, it sounds like the closest to what you want. Make sure you read its FAQ, it's not a one click solution and you'll need to setup your SD card first.
2) Why did you root if you don't know what to do?
My Redmi Note 4x have a question with a continuously endless reboot loop after I add an external SD card (Sandisk Extreme Pro/ 32G) into SIM card holder that it be set as internal storage. However, the OS work normally after external SD card is unmounted.
Is there any way to set an external SD card as internal storage?
32G internal storage is not enough for me~~~
Thanks for anyone helping.

Are you on miui? Or on a custom rom? I don't really know if miui has an option to set sd card as internal storage, but i know custom roms have them. Regarding the bootloop, disable the feature from settings so you can end the bootloop

My suggestion is to upgrade to aosp extended v5.1 since v5.0 isnt going to be much updated plus it has bugs. Maybe that's am issue to the rom. Just boot in the phone without the sd card, then when the phone is on insert the sd card and format it normally. Then u can just copy the zips and flash them.

You can use titanium backup, but unfortunately that's the only thing :highfive:
More a question,if I only back up all the data, cache etc which are existing in AOSP ROM 5.0 except for system,can all things which are described above restore to AOSP ROM 5.1 after ROM 5.0 be upgraded and backup file be flashed via TWRP ?
In a nutshell, I don't want to lost things which were installed in AOSP ROM 5.0~~

As the above friend said, you can use titanium backup to backup all your apps that you have installed and then restore them after upgrading rom. It's pretty easy and from my experience you might have to configure some apps again, but all will be restored.
