I can't install apps too my internal storage on cm9 alpha 3. When I take out my SD card and try and install I get "external SD required to install application". Is this just part of cm9? Or did I do something to my emmc? Does anyone know how to fix it?

Did you check the option to use internal storage for apps? If not, you can access it through settings, storage, hit your physical menu button to bring up storage settings and check that option. It's pretty hard to find if you're not looking for it.

have you updated from alpha3 yet and resolved your issue?

Google is not helping me out here, searched the forum, and threads with similar titles with no luck.
Can anyone explain why TouchWiz does not like to run apps that are on your SD card? I've been replacing it with ADW, but I'd rather not so that I can get a good feel for the UI.
?? I have not run into this issue. Almost all my apps are installed in the SD card, and they run fine on TouchWiz. In fact, when I install an app from the market, it automatically installs on the SD card.

Hmm I'll take a screenshot and add it into the op, the apps show up fine, but they're greyed out and when press the icon it tells me that it's not installed on my phone.

You need to do a factory reset on the phone, then reinstall all of the apps and they won't disappear.

Hi. I just installed CM 7.1 on my G2x and for some reason it's not detecting the internal SD card. Is there some thing I need to do to fix this?

Weird place for it IMO, but I'm sure there's a way to change it.
Aha. So it is. Unfortunately apps like the gallery and camera are saying I have no SD card. Is there a way to mount it so it's detected properly?

Yes there is. CM7 has a setting for swapping the mount points of the internal and external sdcards. I am not running cm7 currently though and can't remember where the setting is. After you change the setting, reboot for everything to mount properly. Ask over in the cm7 thread where the setting is or hopefully someone else will comment here.
The other solution would be to get an external sdcard for your phone. In my opinion that's the better solution but it also costs money so ...
Thanks for the replies. For right now I restored the stock ROM. There were a few things I didn't like about CM but I'll probably flash it again when I have more free time to mess with it.

I am currently on cm10 8/31. I tryed the new build of remjb and after flashing my imternal storage wouldnt mount. It shows 0 bytes of 0 bytes in fx file and root explorer says it is not mounted. So i restored nandroid back to the cm10 and it was mounted. Oh well its ok, i like cm10...... I tryed to take a picture a couple days later and it says i have no storage.... Now my internal isnt mounted on cm10 either. Did full wipe and reinstalled and it still wont mount. In recovery it shows up fine......... I guess what im asking is can anyone give me a terminal command the mounts the internal storage. Its just frustrating as i cant take pictures and half of my apps wont function right since they have stuff saved in android/data on the sd card.
Ps. My external works fine and mounts and shows in fx file fine....

Look at this thread for answer. I think the external you are seeing is really internal. Real external might be /emmc.

I am sure its the internal not mounted because external is both emmc and sdcard1 while sdcard0 is internal. And my external is 32gb so that helps further prove its my internal just not mounting right.

Have you checked the Storage tab under the Settings to see if there is an option to mount it there?

Not a problem! I'm glad the solution was something easy. =D
It's often easy, especially when we do so much technical tweaking, to overlook the simple answers.
Don't feel bad about it. =P
exactly the same
Hey.
I have the exact same problem, but the "mount SD" in settings won't mount it. It just goes from "calculating" back to the "mount SD" button. Frustrating! It's been worked without problems till now and i haven't installed anything or changed anything!

No it wasn't. I just had to keep hitting mount USB in storage. But I switched to an old iPhone for a while then came back to this. Got the jellybean iemi issue and odined back to stock a couple times. That seemed to fix it. No longer have the issue. Weird.
PS I am in the latest Scott cm10 (11/04 with that kernel fix flashed 11/14 I think and latest gapps) fully went to stock and followed every step precisely. If you go back to stock be sure that when you get to the step where you flash an ICS ROM be sure to boot up the ICS rom once before wiping and flashing jellybean. Not doing that step messed up my iemi again haha xP had to Odin yet again.

Let's take aside the noobish method. What would be the mount command for sdcard0 mounting anyway? So much garbage on the forum, that this simple question is impossible to find a resolution for.
Here is my beta build of Team Win Recovery Project V2.3.1.1 For The Galaxy S Blaze 4G
I have been testing this out and so far everything is working fine.
I have noticed that in recovery the reboot buttons work but do not light when touched. I am working on a fix for this.
With that said:
Links: http://sourceforge.net/projects/paranoidblaze/files/TWRP-Recovery-Blaze.zip/download
Download and put on external sdcard
reboot recovery
Flash Zip in recovery...
reboot and enjoy...
Thanks...
TWRP opensource project
FIXED USB MOUNT ISSUE... NEW LINK UP
Awesome
Just flashed, rebooted back to recovery, checked it out a little but when I went to go reboot to system it just went to a black screen I had to pull the battery.
EDIT
Re-downloaded and Re-flashed and it reboots fine now not sure what happend.

Yes TWRP is open source. you can find them on github:

it's pretty easy to incorporate into a system build if you follow their compilation guide at the bottom of their page

If you are trying to mount the internal storage you go under advanced / File Manager
Really appreciate this, I'm sure everyone else does too. Use twrp on both my tablets, hate cwm. Is there any known issues of why this couldn't be permanent recovery?. Just about to flash will report bugs if any occur. Thanks button hit

There doesn't seem to be an easy-to-use interface to mount the internal sdcard (emmc) - but you can still do it. Go into Advanced, then Terminal Command, select / as your starting folder (working directory - just hit select it'll likely be there as default), then type in the following:
/sbin/mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p28 /emmc
Then when you back out of there and get to the Install area, you can switch between the internal and external. Hope that helps!

One other thing I noticed - not sure it matters if it was made this way by design, but if you happen to be usb connected while in recovery and then reboot system, instead of rebooting the phone just powers down. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
As an aside, this is my first experience with this recovery - me likey

Wait what? this is like the EASIEST thing ever. I mean you could not get any easier/smoother than TWRP.
Search in the Dev section. Plenty of threads showing you how to get back to cwm

ok i have a samsung galaxy stellar / sch-1200 from verizon, cant find a forum on it so i figured this would be closest hopefully.....
it reads internal storage as "sdcard01" and i also have an 8gb external sd card. the phone itself does not have an option to move app 2 sd card in the application manager.
ive tried app's via the playstore and still no avail. app2sd and others..
my question is.. is there an option somewhere in the phone that i cannot seem to find or a way to get it to default save items/pics/mp3s/ect to the actual sd card??
ive looked all over to try to find out some similar problems and cant seem to find any info besides actually swapping the external to internal and vice versa using ADB.... i do not have this phone rooted and wont until warranty is up. if anyone could point me in the right direction or inform me on how to change the storage settings id really appreciate it.
thanks in advance.

no not yet.. i will be rooting it in the next couple months but as of right now its not unforunately. its like the phone doesnt even recognize the sd card it in even though it is mounted and reads pictures and music that i manually put on there. but the application manager doesnt even have an option to "move to sd"
I don't know. Maybe it is mounting as read only. That is what happens on the xoom

shouldnt be.. i can move individual files that i have downloaded, its the weirdest things ive ever came across..
my og droid was rooted and my htc inspire, they both even before rooting had the option to move apps to the sd card. the phone has 2gbs of internal space so its not like its worse than the previous just blows my mind and i have no idea how i could maybe change it to having the external card being the primary storage. under Astro it says there are 2 sd cards... i know its thinking that the internal storage is the first/primary card. just dunno how to get it to switch over i guess..
thats the best way i can think to describe the situation..
For moving pics and music and such I would think a file browser like es file explorer or something would let you move from one storage to the other. I dunno that you would need root access for that. But apps are a different story.

yea the file parts im not real worried about. i am able to move them and everything.
i might be not able to really explain it the way im wanting to. its reading like there are 2 sd cards when there is only one in the phone. so the primary storage is to the internal (fake sd card) so it wont move apps to the sd card to free up internal space. thats my assumption anyway. so i thought there might be a way to change the primary storage but i havent found a way to. if that makes sense.
yeah there are external2internal swaps or whatever but I'm pretty sure you're gonna need root and custom recovery to do anything like that.
