Last night I go into CWM and accidently press fix permissions after a while I reboot my phone
And now, everytime I go into Setting - Storage, a notification says "Unfortunately, Setting has stopped",
Also when I plug the phone to my PC it my internal and external storage are not shown on my desktop and it says "Unfortunately, USB Connectivity has stopped"
The thing is,when I remove my microsd, everything works fine, when I insert it, it's like there is a conflict between my microsd and internal storage. So without microsd my internal storage can be seen from Setting - Storage, but if microsd is inserted, none can be seen, and I can't even go into Setting - Storage
I'm using MT27i_6.1.1.B.1.10_Global.ftf ICS firmware
Things that I've tried
1. Wipe everything (Dalvik, cache, data, etc)
2. Do a system restore from CWM to the time when everything is fine
3. Fix my permission again
4. Re-install my firmware via PC Companion
5. Re-install my firmware via Flashtool
And it's still not working, help me please..
try to restore the phone to factory settings.
Settings -> Back-up and restore -> factory reset.
Alas, I tried a different microsd this morning and walah.. it became normal.. I think it's a bad microsd problem, or so I hope.. will be testing it for a while now.. wish me luck
Buy or if you have an USB Card Reader. Plug it in your PC. Go to properties and select check for errors and defrag it if possible.
Yep, I tried 3 other microsd and all of them work fine..
Try settings reset
Also do a factory data reset

How do you accidently select fix permission then select ok by moving all through the no options to get to ok?

Actually it's night time, and my hand-eye cooridination is low during those times
But anyway, new microsd just came in and everything'sback to normal
Hey so I've been trying to find a solution to this problem for a while now and I can't seem to find anything to fix it.
So I went to format my SD card through my phone (I am running Liquid's ICS rom atm). I went into settings > storage > erase sd card, and followed through on everything. After I accepted that my stuff would be lost I got a notification saying the SD Card is safe to remove, and in storage it gives me the option to Mount the SD Card.
However, when I press mount it acts like it is mounting for like half a second then quickly just says it is safe to remove and the mount button is clickable again. No matter how many times I click it, it will just do the same thing.
I tried booting into recovery and mounting it through there and formatting it and other nonsense and it just says error mounting sd card.
I have also taken out my battery and sd card and left it for like 10 minutes and tried again. Still nothing.
The only thing I haven't tried doing yet is putting it into a computer to manually format it that way, but I don't have a device to be able to do that at the moment so I am looking for a way to solve this without having to drive 23 miles to the nearest electronics store to fix this.
I don't think my SD card is corrupt, I mean it was working perfectly (it is a 32gb card from Verizon when I got the TB) and it just started doing this after I tried to format it through the ROM.
Any ideas?
EDIT:
HEY! So holy **** I had a little bit of a moment there. Anyway, I solved the problem on my own. So what I did was boot into recovery, and partition the SD Card under the Advance option. I just did the first setting for each so my operation was like this: Recovery > Advance > Partition SD Card > (Power button for whatever the first option was until it started partitioning).
After that I tried mounting the SD card and it didn't give me an error. So I went into the recovery settings to format the sd card (still in CWM recovery) and after it formatted I booted up and sure enough to worked!
So this thread can be deleted or locked or whatever. Other people may run into this problem and this worked for me so yea.
Thanks for the thread space lol
Have you tried 4ext Recovery?
i have a non rooted 6.0 with latest update.
yesterday and tomorrow morning, i recognized that the avatars in wechat are not shown. i wanted to open the internal folder with total commander and got a failure: folder not available or cannot be opened. then i tried to access the internal storage directly with total comamnder but same issue with error message: no internal storage available. please format.
after rebooting the phone it works again. now i want to know if there are some check tools or how to fix. notice, i have no root, but maybe there are some erros in tables or whatelse. but it is interesting that this occurs over night. during the night the phone is on charge and not offline or in flight mode.
i had this in similar with external sd card some weeks ago. only after a reboot it worked again. and now the internal storage is the problem. i do not want to reboot every day.
does it only happen with total commander or also with the stock file manager?
Hi,
I tried to format the sd card as an internal storage, though I'm willing to sacrifice this sd card as permanently internal storage. 32gb is kinda not enough since I'm intended to use onedrive as offline usage (onedrive only save in internal storage in android).
I tried the ADB style, it is not working either. Do you guys have other method or proven ways to format sd card as internal., for this tab s3 especially.

For some inexplicable reason, Samsung disables "Adoptable Storage" on their devices; a system file (sm.jar, i believe) must be patched to enable it. This thread may help, but I would proceed extreme caution as it appears this patch is specific to Marshmallow:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-a/how-to/patch-adoptable-storage-enabler-t3507387
went to the link, it was made for Tab A with marshmallow, so far, I couldn't a way to do it for tab s3 with nougat.
Edit: nevermind.

It isn't made for the Tab A, it's universal as stated in the thread.
It may still work with nougat, I've had a couple of reports of success.

This most definitely does work with this device. I literally just installed it and it is working on a 64GB Sandisk Extreme Plux. It did boot loop once but afterwards recovered stock ROM due to encryption issues, tried another method (because the patch modifies the system and therefore triggers Samsung to say NOPE).
Do these Steps:
0) Download the patch off this thread.
1) Download ODIN from here.
2) Download TWRP from the TWRP Guide.
~~~Refer to the TWRP Guide. Again. Note you do NOT need root. Read the following but ignore the "root" parts.
To disable forced encryption, mount internal storage(DATA) and disable dm-verity:
(Note this MUST be flashed after SuperSU if you intend to root)
1. Boot to Twrp
2. Format Data partition using FORMAT DATA button under Wipe options.
(Note: This will wipe the internal storage)
3. Check DATA is mountable.
4. Install SuperSU (if root is required)
5. Install boot image patch below.
6. Reboot

^ Download this Boot image patcher referenced in the TWRP thread.
Enabling it:
1) Put the following on your SD card root:
1: adoptable_storage_enabler_ashyx_13916
2: no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx
2) Use ODIN to flash TWRP.
3) Swipe to modify system settings.
4) FORMAT -> Data
5) Install -> External SD Card -> no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx
6) Install -> External SD Card -> adoptable_storage_enabler_ashyx_13916
Reboot.
Your system will be back to default and you will have the option for adoptable storage.

Would this work on JellyBean? Currently have one stuck in CWM recovery trying to get same result through rooting and using APP2SD, and partitioning the external SD. I have a new thread in this S3 forum.
Hi Guys. Im New to this, so please be gentle .

I did this steps and it didnt work.
I got the "Set Warranty Bit: Kernel" Error and the boot was stuck.
Any Ideas what went wrong?

Hi, I did like you wrote, but I can't find the option to format internal. How did you mention it?

Originally I was going make a video of this to show, so folks here know how to do it, but forgot
I don't think I can bear spending another hour flashing stock to root again though (the first time I bricked it accidentally). But perhaps I will eventually, there at least two people here with this mod working so surely it can't just 3 of us with working shared storage. As always, you do this at your own risk.
Edit to add: Latest update is 09/28/17 and I'm using a firmware that's already 3 months behind.
2) I don't know if this is compatible with *your* model and I don't know anything about the variations of ROMS thereof, I'm just explaining how I did it, don't shoot the messenger.
Is there any easy option here then that won't brick my device? I've just purchased an S3 and I'm annoyied you can't use the SD card for internal storage. 32gb isn't a vast amount of space nowdays, why would Samsung turn off this option??

Wow, this is news to me and SO DUMB of Samsung to do this! What the hell would be the reason for this? If they're going to remove this feature, then this tablet should've came with at least 64gb. 32gb is weak for a $600 tablet!
No need for that. Don't download Lotta apps. Play one or two games at a time finish them. Use your phone for other stuff. I use tab mostly for HDR video Netflix Amazon and download on SD card 64 GB so no issues. 32 is actually good will save a ton of battery tab easily lasts 2 days with binge watching on speakers and 67 percentage or full brightness last about one and a half day

There is a developer option to force apps to move to SD card
how do u enable microsd card as internal storage on android 8.0 oreo? samsung t820
It is simple. Just flash the ZIP file which I attached here in Recovery and then you will be able to format SD card as Internal Storage.
*** If it is not working, you must need to FORMAT DATA to delete the encryption, so before of that - make a backup of all your files ***
I tested it on Android 13 and it is working perfectly.
Then you can use for example an app: APP2SD (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.co.pricealert.apps2sd) from Google Play to move apps to adopted storage (SD CARD)
I've spent an ungodly amount of time trying, and failing, to set up a 256GB Samsung Evo Micro SD as internal or adoptable storage so that I can give my 64GB Poco F1 more room for Apps. What has been happening:
I completely wipe the phone and do a clean install of a 12.1 ROM
After initial set up, I go into the storage section of the setting and select the option to format the SD card as internal storage
The process starts but then the phone enters a boot loop. It boots up, there's a pop up about SD card not being detected and in a under a minute it restarts. This happens endlessly
Usually, the SD card ends up corrupted and write protected, requiring me to format it from my computer before another attempt
I've tried the following:
Different ROMS: the same thing happened with crDroid, awakenOS and LineageOS
With and without GAPPS: exact same thing
Letting phone get set up a bit, rebooting, then attempting: same thing
Using `adb sm partition`: sm wasn't recognised as a command
I'm not too sure what else to try, maybe it would work with a smaller card? I'd appreciate any insight or ideas you all might have.
same issue i tried using adb shell and no luck
