[Q] Internal Storage Partitions mixed - T-Mobile LG G2x

After flashing the new eaglesblood 2.3.7 update, my internal Storage is 1.48GB and the unusable additional storage is 5.22GB when it should be the other way around. Can someone please help? I can't even restore my backups updates because it just says MD5 mismatch. (I'm also sort of new to this so the only thing I know how to do is flashing properly)

You need to fix md5 files using adb

MD5 Mismatch

Hey for some reason whenever I backup my system I get a message that says "Unable to find mounted volume: /sdcard error finding an appropriate backup handler" I tried this on both the internal storage and the external SD card.
Then when I try to recover it, it says that there isa Md5 mismatch.
I am on stock rooted with unlocked bootloader. I was on the the official CM10 build last night but restored back to stock and now it doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Also I made an old backup of my system and it wont let me restore that either and it says it also has a mismatch.

Delete the folder /sdcard/.android-secure and see if that allows you to make a new backup.
I had this on my captivate. The solution was the change to a different cwm

CWM 6.0.1.0 cant backup to local SD?

Hi,
I tried to run a nandroid backup & I am getting this error message:
Unable to find mounted volume: /sdcard
error finding an appropriate backup handler
I then tried to mount the SD card using CWM, that didnt not work but I can mount my external card & perform a backup - but it takes much much longer.
Any ideas why this would be?
I am running the stock ICS rom that is rooted. I did try to upgrade to a JB rom & updated the modem and rpm to a JB one. I dont know if that is the issue.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks,
Rich
Are you using an SDXC card? If so, try formatting it to FAT32 using this guide (I used the GUIFORMAT.EXE program to do it): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773735. I have a 64GB SDXC card in mine and couldn't see it in recovery (or in AOSP ROMs) until I did that.
I am not using a SD card at all anymore. I am sort of stuck. I want to try another rom but I want a nandroid backup before I start messing around so I have somewhere to get back to.
I tried deleting .android secure but that did not help.
Any ideas on what I could try?
When I backup it says:
no /sdcard/.android_secure found skipping backup of applications on external storage.
no /sd-ext found,skipping.
Complete
My backup (which by the way says its in 1970) is only about 30 megs which seems way to small to be a real backup.
Thanks,
Rich
That's the backup. They use blobs that store common info so backups seem small. My stock backup is only 20.82 mb

[Q] How to mount internal SD as UMS for file recovery?

I'm trying to recover some important photos that were deleted by mistake on a friend's Galaxy Note 10.1 (N8013) that is running JB. I installed the newest TWRP because I saw some others say they were able to mount the internal SD as UMS. If I disable MTP in TWRP the file recovery applications see nothing. Is there another way to go about this? I've seen someone else saying he was able to do it using dd to do a low level backup of the internal SD, but details are scarce. I don't want to load a different ROM since that would probably wipe out everything I am trying to recover.
Thanks for any advice!

Can't see all files in internal memory

I finally got my MT7-L09 running on MM by flashing TWRP backup images posted by others, but I'M still having a few problems with it.
1. When I USB connect my phone to my computer(s) it only shows 4GB of internal memory in the device, it should be 16GB. I only see the basic folders, in Internal storage......alarms, DCIM, HWThemes, Notifications, etc....14 folder total....it's like I can't see the root, it's like LP is still installed and my internal memory somehow got partitioned.
2. WIFI doesn't work......it stays grayed out and doesn't see any networks.
3. Bluetooth doesn't work.
I currently have TWRP installed, so if you know of any fixes, let me know if I have to flash the stock recovery.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

MT7-L09
I flashed the stock B510 recovery over the B511 Rom and now the capacity of the internal memory is about 12GB (up from 4GB yay!)
If anyone has an any ideas about recovering the lost space I'd appreciate it. I've tried looking at the memory with repartitioning software and it doesn't show it either.
I still can't figure out how to get wifi working.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks:good:

[SOLVED] TWRP can't mount internal storage - the problem is coming back...

I wanted to update my rooted Android Nougat to Oreo and also go from SuperSU to Magisk. During that process I discovered that TWRP recovery couldn't mount my internal storage.
I quickly saw on a lot of sites that it's a well-known issue, and I solved it by converting from ext4 to ext2 and back again. Now my phone is running perfect. All apps are installed, data and settings are restored with Titanium and root with Magisk is working fine. But then I remembered about the issue with TWRP and booted into recovery - just to discover the problem is back again. I can't mount my internal storage. So I can't flash zip files, I can't do a backup etc.
When I search xda or the web in general, I can't figure out why the problem has occured again. Also I can't find out how to fix it without losing all my data. Can anybody answer these two questions? Why is this happening again and how do I permanently fix it? And can it be with all my data on my phone - because I'm not able to do a backup.

The problem occurs when you use a ROM which encrypts the software or the ROM your flashing has an encrypted kernal. The only way out is to flash a ROM which doesn't encrypt. It is a known problem with TWRP and we have to wait for the TWRP team to update TWRP to handle quota allocation.
It seems the problem is solved for me. I flashed the TWRP version from this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77296102&postcount=1243
First I tried from Odin but it didn't work. Then I installed the TWRP app from Google Play and flashed the other file, rebooted to recovery, and it seems to work. I can mount my internal storage, make a backup etc. So this is the solution for me.
I had also similar problem of internal storage 0mb and i was not be able to mount my data
so when i flash color recovery by nobody
It's gone because it's allready patch by him
I think it's issue of encrypt data so just flash this recovery from nobody post

i think you must try with different file mngr, that one have no ability or permission to read system files

I'll re flash later and try a different file manager. Otherwise I'll install treble or re flash stock and start over

same problem, have you found solution ? please help me
TWRP sometimes can't mount the storage, the storage is encrypted, but don't worry. You can still flash your files and rewrite system partion. But in order to show the Storage, you have to use a different version of TWRP. Why am I saying this is mentioned following:
I installed the latest version of twrp, It didn't ask for any password patter to decrypt my storage. So , different XDA posts made me understand that , formatting everything, factory reset will decrypt my storage. And trust me, I have done it several time, several times my brother but it didn't decrypt my storage. I couldn't backup my ROM and without backing up my ROM, I didn't take the risk of flashing new ROM. I waited. This twrp couldn't even mount my system partion. So I seeked knowledge from different person. It took a lot of effort.
Then I learned that, I should change this version of TWRP. I changed to an older version and it didn't decrypt my internal storage after formatting, but it mounted my system partion. Since, it couldn't decrypt my internal storage, I couldn't take backup of my rom and save it to internal storage. so I inserted a pendrive in my phone, and saved the backup of my rom there.
Permanent Solution​
Flashing DM Verity Force Encryption Disabler will decrypt your storage instantly. But in my case, it aroused another problem, None of the security measures of my phone worked afterwards. FOD, pin, password, pattern none of them worked. I don't know the reason but I don't suggest it with my little knowledge. but almost every rom flasher use them, so I thing I have to study about them to know how they work.​
second and best option: start trying older version of TWRP, the good one will be the one to ask the password the recovery in the beginning. It will decrypt your internal storage.​
I was brief here, if anyone doesn't understand these things, let me know, I will explain them step by step because I know the pain of being NEWB.
