hi all
my 9003 telling me the internal and external SD unavailable as you can see on the attached photo
i have 8gb card it's working fine on my pc and other nokia phone .
when i try the parted command from adb shell i can access the external card on /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
but i can't see the internal memory on /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 as the entry shows on the /etc/vold.conf .
can't mounted or formatted from UI or recovery mode
am running XXKPH with CF-ROOT-XXKPH-21.08.2011
also tried different firmware with re-partition but no luck
i think it's internal hardware problem
please advice
thanks
problem solved for now , i can get some storage space from my external mmc
as the phone can't detect the internal mmcblk1p1 and no storage space was available internal nor external seems it's h/w issue.
1st i used parted to make partition on my external mmc from the adb shell
2nd edit the vold.fstab
# internal sdcard
{
ums_path = /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun1/file
asec = enable
mbr_policy = overwrite
}
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 1 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.0/mmc_host/mmc1
#end line ## keep this line
3rd edit the /etc/fstab
/dev/block/stl11 /cache rfs rw
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /data rfs rw
/dev/block/stl10 /datadata rfs rw
/dev/block/stl9 /system rfs rw
/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /sdcard auto rw
now i have 4gb from my external mmc mapped to the internal , i can install apps and use my camera again
you are my saviour. i got same prob as you. now its working after follow your step.
PLease guide me as I am new to it that how could I Reterive my Internal Memory.
look at the top post!!
Hello ahmedjust
i want to know how to 2nd edit the vold.fstab plaese help me? aed when i give # internal sdcard
says internal : not found how to solved this problem?
i solved it by changing the phone
I have this problem too, I think Internal hardisk has problem .
Same Problem, I guess
Hi all,
I think i have the same issue..my SD card is not being detected , its sayin "Mount SD Card" and that field is disabled probably because it doesnt know that its there even though i have an external 16 GB card inserted..
fyi here are the specs :
model : GT-I9003
Android version : 2.3.7
Internal Memory : 1.87GB
SD Card : Unavailable
Baseband : I9003XXKPQ
ROM : MIUI 2.3.30
Here is the thing, i have flashed my phone about a 100 times, with various ROMS including stock XXKPE,XXKPQ (latest) and still no success
Also, the funny thing is, only 12 gb of my 16 gb external sd is usable so im guessing the 4 gb is being used internally by the phone for the default 2 + 2 gb of samsung galaxy s
on reboot to recovery, when i go to --> install from sd card, it says E: cant mount \sdcard
whereas when i go to --> install from internal sd card, it shows me all the files,folders on my external sd card
Another thing ive seen is when trying to clear cache it says :
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
-------------
Now all said and done, i just wanted some sort of idea whether i should go ahead with this solution because im very sure its the same problem..ive inserted my external sd card on other samsung galaxy s and it works fine..and ive tried inserting other external sd cards onto my phone but it doesnt get mounted..
Thanks!
Same Problem
I think I have the same problem! Will report back if the solution works! It seemed so bazaar, I didn't think anyone else had it.

install any root kernel into your phone 1st.. then put it into recovery mode.. connect to pc and run android sdk... type command "adb push c:\(location of vold.fstab file in your pc) \system\etc\" and enter.. type without the " and ().. this way you will push the file from your pc into your phone and it will replace the previous one..
example : adb push c:\users\anplugged\desktop\vold.fstab /system/etc/
have a try mate.. good luck...
thanks to you.

thanks mate... This solved my issue... Just one more thing can use more than 4gb from the external sd?

1st of all, of course you'll need a larger capacity of SD.. i.e 16gb..
to increase the external memory space, edit the 1st partition of fat32 format.. in the picture posted by ahmedjust, he created :
start end
32.8kb 4702mb <--increase the end figure to get more space on external..
But the following 3 partition must have +/- space as seen on the pic..
You just need to do the math to divide the space...
Good Luck..
Help
hi,
i was flashing poseidon rom on xxkpq when suddenly my internal sd card and external sd card just disappeared ...
could this help me solve my problem .
Thanks
plz help me i am not able to partition the external sd.
My problem: modified my phone as described in #1.
Phone boots fine, but whenever I install an app it just reboots. Any ideas?
Did you know? Editing /etc/fstab is pointless. Every time you reboot, it is replaced by a default one.

That is not true. I am a user of modified fstab file and it has been very useful to me because it saved my phone from being totally useless. I used to have "pseudo resets" errors, "sd card unexpectedly removed" errors, "force closes", but now my phone is 99% OK (1% = my internal SD is destroyed already :laugh: ). But no more errors encountered after using modified fstab, very stable for 3 weeks and counting.
how do i get internal storage to show on miui without a sdcard?
What exactly do you mean show?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I believe I may be having same issue so i will explain. My phone after flashing to MIUI cannot jse a sd card I put in for what ever reason when I insert one it gets super hot and just tells me card is ready for removal with no way to mount. Before Rom Manager would allow me to use internal memory for roms or downloads from browser but after miui I cannot even find the internal memory. We just want a way to access it.
Just flashed miui on my G2x and an experiencing the same problem...
If you don't have an SD card and want to make the internal SD act as the external click here and flash the external secondary miui one.
I want to try the MOD you posted but can't download it to phone because of no sdcard problem.

What I did was restore to gingerbread or cm7. (basically a ROM that can discover the internal sd.) Then i connected it to my computer, put the mod and MIUI on my internal SD, wiped data, wiped cache, flashed miui, flashed the mod and bingo
I think I have a solution for you. You will need a file manager with a text editor built in like Root Explorer. Brows to /system/etc and open vold.fstab. This is the file that tells the OS where to mount the storage. Yours is most likely trying to mount the internal on the external sd which is default. All you have to do to change this is to change the vold.fstab from this:
Code:
# Internal SD card
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard/_InternalSD 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
# External SD card
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
To this:
Code:
# Internal SD card
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard 9 /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.3/mmc_host/mmc2
# External SD card
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD auto /devices/platform/tegra-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
When I mount my phone, it gives me only my external SD card. But I want to mount my internet SD card. Because I want to flash cm9.
Anyone know how to mount internal SD?

There must be a problem in the partitioning process
Re-partition your sdcard
Just re-partition you sd card with 0MB of swap...it has happened to me and I solved with this
Hi everyone ,seeing how my tablet slows down every time i install an app i bought myself and sd card class 10,16gb.
I just installed the freshest cm10 build now i want to set it up so that the apps automaticly install on the sdcard ,can u guys help me out )?
Tried the foldermount ,but it`s very confusing and uncofortable.
THX in advance
Bump ? PLEASE I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP
running speed of the apps in internal storage is always faster than the one in external sd card. 4.5G internal storage usually enough for app installation. If internal sd card is not enough, maybe you should swap internal sd card and external sd card. It's better.

Can you please tell how to swap? The vold.fstab method is no longer working.

I don't use CM with my 3113. For my Nook HD running either CM and JB 4.2.2 or JB 4.3 there is a script. If you look at the OP in this thread,

4. Swapping "sdcard" and "ext_sdcard" read this
"I have two zips attached below, one to install the swap feature and one to remove the feature. Just flash the one you want and on the next boot it will become effective.
I also now have a version for the official CM10.1/CM10.2 on emmc for the HD+ and HD."
Maybe this will point you in a direction to get the answer. I lack the knowledge and skills to experiment.
#!/system/bin/sh

sleep 30
mount -o bind /data/media/0 /mnt/ext_sdcard
chmod 777 /mnt/ext_sdcard
exit
You'll have to watch the name and locations, ext_sdcard might be extSdCard for the Galaxy Tab 2.7. You should consider having a .zip to flash from recovery to overwrite the experimental script. You might try ScriptManager to test running the script.
