Hello guys,
i wanted to use a custom rom, so i unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom rom (i could access the internal memory from windows while in recovery). Now i wanted to use another rom, so i boot in orange fox, do format data, wipe and reboot to recovery. But now, i cant access the internal storage anymore. Windows explorer shows me the device, but i cant acess it. I have the global version Redmi Note 9 pro. I tried pitch black recovery as well as Mauronofrio's TWRP. I also tried to flash the Stock Rom from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com with the official mi flash tool and followed this instruction (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unable-to-decrypt-fbe-device.4206579/page-3#post-84370443). But then again, i could not access the internal storage from windows and the moved files from step 4 where not there anymore.
When i boot to the original stock rom, run all the setup and stuff and then boot again to recovery, i am able to access the internal storage. but then again, after format data i cant access it anymore and cant copy any custom rom on the phone. What to do?
Use adb sideload to install the ROM directly from your PC.
Not all recoveries support it though.
LineageOS recovery does so that's the reason why I use it.

Just few alternate method without adb/PC:
1. Use an sdcard to store roms, recovery backups...
2. Few days ago forget to copy the rom to sdcard (and already formatted the data), used an otg cable and installed the rom from usb-stick without any problem.
3. Flash the rom from internal storage, format data and boot to system.
Always use latest recovery (now ofox 11.0.1).

Hello, i've installed the twrp recovery from venom , also tryed the cwm recovery , and i can't mount the sd card to copy the rom on the sd. I mean , i have wiped everything.. what i need to do?
Up please i need the phone
are you stuck in splash screen? or, can you access to recovery? or you just can not flash anything because you deleted all your data (including the rom)?
if you can access to recovery, but you don't have any file to flash, you could try DROID EXPLORER, (I can not remember if i use droid explorer in fastboot or in recovery) in any case, you could use droid explorer to copy your rom to your phone to flash it...
It happened to me, because a skin of TWRP changes the buttons and then... I clear all my data XD

You can't mount sdcard in recovery (yet) because there is no real sdcard on this phone. The virtual sd card is just a folder called media on your data partition (/data/media). You will have to install TWRP and use adb sideload command to get the rom onto your phone. There's are two tutorials in the One X+ General forum with everything you need to know about unlocking/rooting/flashing on this phone. One of them also contains a section for ADB Sideload command, shouldn't be that hard to find.
But i recommend you to completely read both guides to avoid further problems.
And don't forget to press the Thanks button for the guys who made these tutorials!!!
Flash the latest recovery compatible with your device using fastboot command...
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Where "boot.img" is type where the location of the boot.img is.
hi i just bought a samsung mega 6.3 in indonesia, it's a 16 version but i didn't check it before i root it, however i seem to remember when i plug it onto my computer it was 11 or 12 gb storage
so after rooting using guide in this thread " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2355680&page=3 ", when i plug it on my computer it shows only 128 mb storage, why is it happening? and if i checked setting - more - storage it says "8 gb (why 8 gb instead of 16 gb or 12 gb?).
if i open application manager from setting - application manager it says 352 mb used out of 12 gb free.
I used odin 3.07 to flash vcoreroot-v2.tar, followed by original kernel KERNEL-XSE-I9200XXUAMEE-1369705836.tar, followed by cwm recovery v6.0.3.2 - i9200-cwm-recovery
please help me. thank you so much
oh and the storage on the pc is empty without any folder, and i can't copy files onto it...
please helpppppp
The internal storage ( sdcard ) is only a folder on your data partition ( /data/media ). The entire 16GB is not allotted to your sdcard. It is shared. So you will not see the entire 16GB when you mount your sdcard on your PC. So no worried there. Also make sure your usb debugging is on before connecting your phone to PC.
Regarding root, the easiest method is to flash cwm recovery and then flash the SU zip file. If you use twrp recovery, the recovery will do the rooting for you. Just remember to reboot to recovery first after flashing the twrp recovery, else recovery will get overwritten by stock recovery.
I suggest, you flash your stock rom again and re-root. You could also try this app to root your phone using windows.

thank you for helping @Silesh.Nair
I've attempted to flash a newer version of cyanogenmod on my phone (10.1.3 to 11). I'm using TWRP 2.6.1.0
I can not boot because I've wiped the phone (dalvik, system, data, internal storage, cache), and I suspect the ROM I have is corrupted but I can't connect it to my computer and transfer the file via USB because I have no ROM installed and can not boot. I also can't take the SD card (since there's non) and put the file that way.
My phone is Oppo find 5
My root file flashing was successful, but installation of the ROM cm-11-20140204-NIGHTLY has failed. I assume the file was corrupted, but I have no way to find out what it is.
I now realize my mistakes, like wiping the system unnecessarily.
Is there any way to get another file on the device? any other suggestions?
Also, I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I was not able to find the right place. I apologize in advance.

Check that thread, set up adb and push a ROM to the internal sd of your phone via adb. You can use adb in recovery mode (I could in CWM, dont know about your recovry) so if you can boot into recovery, you can push the rom. (There is info on the thread about adb pushing/pulling)
Sent from my GT-S5660
Cwm has an option to mount storage to PC in mounts & storage menu
Check if twrp has the option
You can mount it that way:good:

Hello. I would like to install a different custom rom. I know I should erase device in the recovery, but from what I remember, that erases the internal sd storage as well. Is there any work around? coming from one custom rom and I want to install a different custom rom. I also remember having a hard time to install this custom rom since a full erase erased the rom I had in the storage so I had nothing to install. I cant remember how I got it on the storage again to flash the device, since accessing the internal memory from the recovery was impossible.
Hi @liquidzorch, use ADB side load method to copy your rom to device from recovery and flash the rom. dont wipe internal storage next time
Hi XDA,
I used to try out every new ROMs out there and today I just did the same. I downloaded and installed Dot OS and now the device's internal storage is not accessible. When I try to wipe the data it says unable to mount storage.
Nothing is found on the file manager.
I can't download anything from the internet since there is no internal storage available.
But it is available from Red Wolf a recovery mode. I can see all the files from the recovery but not able to see or access it from the file manager.
please help. Now I can't install new ROM since I can't download new one.
I haven't tried factory reset yet. Please help me if I can do something on the device or inside the recovery.
please help
Wipe everything through Recovery EXCEPT internal storage. Then there are three things you can do:
1. Try flashing any ROM you have saved in your internal storage.
2. If you have saved some ROMs on your PC (good habit), you can flash one using Adb side load.
3. Download a ROM using someone else's phone and use either a microSD or USB-OTG to flash it.
Found any fix for this issue
Because I'm also facing same problem
security
Flash any custom rom before remove all password (fp, pattern, pin, etc)
This is just an encryption problem you have to decrpt your phone. If your phone is encrypted your twrp will ask your password to decrpt and you have to remove password or pattern from twrp go-to youtube and search for how to remove pattern or password from twrp watch vj mehta's video and do it and enjoy but all file in internal storage will deleted so you must copy everything before you doing this ok
