Maybe the internal sd card is mounted as something don't existing. Try saving something in the internal sd and tell if it can be saved

I think it's normal. Samsung says, that SGS II Plus has 8 GB of memory, but the system uses the 4 GB. I'm also using CyanogenMod 10.1 and I have 4 GB too....

my post is probably not 100% related to your question, but this may help
you'll find your files if you use root explorer
mnt>sdcard>and all the files from your previous ROM are here. and inside "mnt>sdcard", you will see a folder called "0"
it's where your files of your int. sd card saved (CM10.1)
you should be a bit confused
here you go:
0 = the folder mounted for cm10.1, to save files separated from the original place
mnt>sdcard=the place where your files are saved in the original ROM
SO, installing cm10.1 actually (from what i make myself understand) made a file with root permission, and then all the things you need to save when you use cm10.1 will be saved there, for example, your sd card game data.
so you have some spaces occupied (from original rom, and also your current cm10.1) but you can't see what are those files if you use normal no root needed file explorers.
if you want to get back entirely 4 GB, format /sdcard in cwm.
everything, including mnt>sdcard and mnt>sdcard>0 will be wiped.

[Q] Entropys' CM9 Not Recognizing External SD

Hey guys, I have looked all over and cant find an answer...
I am running the most current (4/23) version of the cm9 rom, but i cant get my infuse to "recognize/or/find" my external 32gb sd card... it finds my internal 16 gb no problem, i have also swapped it out for my 16gb card and its still a no-go...
what do i have to do / change to get it to show up? im needing to get to my music because my daily drives of 14+ hours are getting a bit tedious...
if you could in full detail tell me where the file to edit is and what needs to be changed it would be awesome!
thanks in advance and if this has been posted i apologize i must have missed seeing it...
also running 4/23 built and it reads mine no problems,, bad flash?
I'm thinking its possably something to do with a lib file as both clicking on external SD and internal SD both go to the internal SD... using astro file manager I can see both fine... but not when I use a stock app... *shrug* I also can't afford to try and reinstall it as I'm no where near home for the next 5 days either and if I screw up I'm without a phone...

you can try flashing it over and see if that helps, this time use fix permission and it could also be a bad download, what i would do is re-download, go back to phone stock , and while you're there factory reset the phone( back up all your other data ) , flash kernels to get red cmw ( entropy DD ) and then flash latest cm9
I recently installed a 64gb. I had to go back to stock to get it recognized. Then when I reinstalled CM9, I found it under /mnt/emmc.

Go to the themes and apps forum - See Axiomkids mods and tweaks for this build. Go to number 5 in the OP. Although it says it won't recognize the external sd it does for my phone . I only have an 8 gb card, don't know if that makes a difference. Hope this helps. Edit- Here's the link. I used the1.1.4 version. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389375
Thanks... phone can find it now... but music and video apps still don't "see" it..
Is there a "string" (?) command i can use in the terminal console to change where its looking...
seems to be finding the "external SD" folder but not the actual card...
Seems very odd to me cause both when i flashed back, googles' stock apps found it, and as well as the cm 7.2.0 release found the external sd card in the right spot.
Now flashing cm 9.0 (05/02/12) it finds the external sd folder on the internal sd, but still doesn't find the external sd...

thanks for that, i have just gone completely stock, then rooted, flashed cm7, now back to cm 9, and still nothing. yet cm7 and stock can find all the music n videos on my external sd fine with the native built-in music/video apps... once i install cm9 they don't "see" it or recognize it... tho when i go thru astro file manager i can see it just fine... *shrug*
Google Play Music did not find my songs despite following their instructions. Winamp & the music player did.
So did Album Art Grabber.

Did a clean install and wiped twice everything I could via cwm recovery... seems to be fine now - took me 3 hours to get back to a working stock... think my phone doesn't like the stock now after being on cm lol... anyways its working fine now... thanks to you guys on all your input... found it was a bad micro sd format when I formatted it (micro sd) from cm recovery the first time I installed cm9 on entropys first build... :banghead: shoulda thought of that earlier...

Internal SD files Emulated 0

I was on 4.2 went back to 4.1 and restored back to 4.2 which left files on my internal SD. I can see them while in Clockwork back cannot access them any other way. IS their a way besides flashing 4.1 to get those files. I have a couple GB their of zip I want to delete and some pics.
From CWR I install zip from Internal I see folders 0, download, DCIM,an about 8 others.
Thanks

thanks, I was just having this exact same issue, but when flashing via TWRP. I normally have my flashing folder on the root of the SD, but once I flashed a 4.2.1 rom I couldn't find it in TWRP. kind of odd... but there it was in data/media. thanks!
Anyone know how to fix the multiple 0 problem? When I flash a 4.2 it naturally makes at least on 0 sub folder but sometime it gets corrupted and I end up with emulated/0/0 and it messes up the root of my internal sd. As such when I try to use titanium it cant find the files after a transition between asop and tw roms.
I would put all my flashing material on my external SD..and format your internal sd after doing all the standard wiping before a fresh install..

At max storage capacity after installing CM10

I was looking through the folders to try and see which one was taking up all of my space, found the Samsung folder was at about 11 gigs but the three sub folders are nearly empty. The sub folders are just images, videos and music so I'm assuming that it's OK to delete this folder but unwanted to make sure that I wasn't missing something first. (everything I load besides apps goes onto my external SD card)

I just flashed cm 10.2 and I'm only showing 4gb internal memory with about .5gb avail. I don't know where my storage went either. Used SD analyst and it doesn't add up to 4gb. Wondering what happened to the other 4gb. Any ideas?

That happened to me too... The problem was that cm10.2 rom saves data to /sdcard not /sdcard0, so the files in /sdcard0 just stays there.... You can't delete the files inside because you can't access them. You need to flash the previous rom, and delete all files in /sdcard0, and reflash cm 10.2.
So does that mean a previous version of cm or whatever rom I had installed before cm10?

I think they are the same thing. Create a folder in in sdcard and you will see it in Sdcard0. Your 8gb of storage is 2gb for ROM, 2g apps and apps/data and 4gb storage.
thats weird
emm try to stay away from CM 10.2 , android 4.3 is not stable yet !
try CM 10.1 or a stable rom.. i advice you : slimrom build.8-OFFICIAL :good:

Can't delete a file on SD card

Hello.
Can someone please help me out? Awhile ago I flashed rage rom, and it placed a folder called HD rage extras onto my SD card. I have since then been using other roms, and wiped everything except internal SD card multiple times. I cannot seem to delete that rage folder, or the 5 files inside it
YES, I have used root file explorers, multiple ones, and all of them will not allow me to delete them.
Even tried changing permissions but they still will not delete.
Any ideas?

The next time you flash a ROM, wipe data and it will be gone.
I've done that at least 5 times, currently running cm nightlies I have wiped everything except internal SD.

You need to wipe or format internal.

If I did that, wouldn't I lose my backup, recovery, or new rom download? Would I have to adb with a PC after?

Wiping data doesn't touch your recovery, but it will get rid of everything else. I always save my backups, etc. to my external SD. That's what it's there for.
Yeah, my ex card stopped working awhile ago. Still can't believe there isn't another way to delete a file that's not even being used any other way

Skyrocket i727 running cm10.2, want to remove partition.

So I have two phones, a note 2 i317 and a skyrocket i727 running cm 10.2. I recently flashed cm and with that I went around to installing my apps. And after installing just a few apps, and I get the error, "insufficient storage available". I look in my storage section in settings and I discover two internal partitions, both labeled internal storage. One has 1.97GB available and one with 11.24 GB available. The apps seem to install only in the smaller of the two partitions. And in my manage apps section there is an option to move apps to SD card even though there is no SD card inserted. Of course all apps don't support SD card moving so this creates a problom. How do I remove one of these partitions so I can install more apps? View attachment 2323488View attachment 2323490

The 1.97GB is your total space on that internal storage. If the available space is only around 200-300MB then try deleting all the files in data, lost+found. You may need to enable root access for your file browser (I use ROM toolbox, root browser). There will be 1,000-7,000+ files in lost+found to delete, so be patient after clicking on lost+found while it generates. After selecting and deleting all, check your available storage. Should be around 1GB. Now your apps should be able to download and install
