Could you provide us with more information ?
Did you change something ( anything ? ) right before this problem started ?
Which ROM are you running ?
Can you copy a file to the SD Card using a file manager such as ES File Manager ?
Hi, I experienced some issues with permissions with my HTC One Mini (M4) , I searched but I never found the correct answer. I solved this problem thus:
You will need a TWRP installed;
A Pen Drive;
A USB OTG Cable
Enter in the recovery→Format All Data (This will erase all of your phone, if you wants make a back up, save in your computer)
Now, you will go to Advanced→File Manager→System and erase this folder
Put your ROM and Gapps in the Pen Drive and conect this in the OTG Cable and your phone
Go to Install and select and choose the option OTG
Install your ROM
This was the only way I found for to solve this problem, sorry for my English, I'm learning and I hope everyone understands.

Previously I was using cm9, after that I upgraded to cm10. I wiped data, wiped cache in cwm recovery.
After that, I tried xfering some files over to my tab, it looked like this
i. imgur.com/T3LAU.png
From this picture, it can be seen that my internal memory has files and is not empty
yet when I enter the folder
i. imgur.com/Mn7lR.png
Completely empty, cant be seen.
Even after trying to copy and paste files in, only the new files appear, can no longer find my old files.
Can anybody help me? same thing for the SD card. SD card only detected when I removed and plugged in with external usb card reader to my pc.
(I can't post images yet, hopefully someone with >10 posts can hotlink it for me).
Really urgent because I have to use it for my lecture notes in school.
If you want a workaround on this issue, you can use a cloud storage app. For example, dropbox (go to my signature and click the dropbox logo) can allow you to transfer files without even plugging your Xoom into your computer
Managed to solve the issue by doing a complete memory wipe on my internal hard disk but backing up important files before hand w dropbox as the files are still accessible with astro.
No idea how this happened though.
It's called MTP. Hahahaha in other words windows sucks.
Really what happens is the file list directory isn't updated so it doesn't show up on explorer. I don't even use explorer, I just use ADB push or pull.
Hello everyone !
Few minutes ago, I wanted to install a new rom, just to try it, on my acer iconia tab but after having wipe the previous one I saw that I had forgot to put the new rom on the internal sd card.
Do any of you know how to install a rom through usb connection or at least transfer a file from pc to the internal sd card ?
I already have tried to transfer a file with the bootloader and with an adb command but nothing works. (adb didn't manage to detect my tablet).
I have "google" my problem but nothing interesting seemed to work.
I know my english is not perfect so if you need more information don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks in advance.
I manage to solve it by restoring the flexrom (I completly forgot I had a backup)
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, if not a moderator please move it to the right place.
I rooted my Samsung GT-S7580, following the tutorial on this forum, everything went ok. After rooting I wanted to use an app called GL to SD (tried FolderMount first but it didnt work due to some faulty thing) after I opened it it said that it needed to change some folder/files issues and rebooted.
Now I can;t access "device storage" anymore, can't install anything. If I plug in the USB cable all I can see is the external sd card and Phone 127MB/128MB but if I open it's empty. I cant copy anything to either locations. Same thing with the phones file explorer I can only access the external sd card, if I click "Device Storage" it's empty for a second then it backs up.
I did a factory rest ... same thing. Please tell me there is a way to fix this and I didn't just make my phone a paper weight.
I can still use odin and android recovery system.

Iif this isn't a Note 3 (N9005) you aren't going to get any help here...
Each device has its own way to root and different recovery. If you flashed something from this forum in all likelyhood you have (possibly) bricked your phone...
My suggestion would be to find your stock rom and flash that... Then (hope you backed up) wipe everything and try again...
I used a tutorial for my phone model and like I said the rooting went fine. I was able to install and uninstal apps, even rebooted it a few times. The problem was after that gl to sd app did something to my file system. Most things still work, I'm on it right now. It seem that I can't access its internal memory

Going to need a little more details than that ...
Anyway it seems that I can install apps if I transfer their apk on my sdcard on another phone and then put the sd card in my samsung, I installed es file explorer and I can access some parts like /sdcard/ but not /storage/emulated/legacy that one is "not found", maybe it's a permission issue?
Start gl to sd.
Then click top-right corner(three dots).
Press "Restored samsung".

I would do that, if I could find some place to download gl to sd apk .. I can't install using google play and seems all links lead there.
EDIT: The newest version I could find (2.2.0) only has "move data". "Show mounted folders", "Purchase PRO" and "Setting" under those 3 dots and none of these show a restore setting or any mounted folders.
Please update v2.2.22
Only new version has this feature.

I have the same problem, but the system writes "Not enough memory to install applications". Installed via Google Play, through the apk files - nothing works. Does anyone know what exactly this program is changing? I am excruciated wildly. I do not want to reflash the phone.
Hi there,
was switching from CM10.1 to [ROM][KK][4.4.2] CarbonRom [27/2/2014] for my One S C2 today, trying to solve the homescreen bug. Anyway while recovering my phone with helium, I figured out, that only one app couldn't be installed to the sd card.
Now I want to delete the smdl2tmp1 file in .android-secure as everyone suggests on the Internet. Unfortunately I'm unable to find the location of this file. I've used the file manger which is deployed along with the rom in root mode (superuser). Did the same with "RootBrowser" too. Mounting the card via usb to my win7 machine wasn't working either (could only see the internal sd card without any hidden folders[of course the respective option is enabled]).
Hints and help much appreciated.
Hey guys,
I want to repair the i9003 for a friend and I'm a little bit confused o.0
I own a i9001 so I'm familiar with Odin and that stuff.
He gave me the device which only had access to the Download Mode. So I flashed a Stock ROM (MODEM, CODE, CSC, ...). It ended in bootloop and previous appeared note in recovery that it wasn't able a access to the sd card anyway ("unable to write to ums lunfile" and can't mount).
I flashed various Stock ROMs but everytime the same conclusion (bootloop). I've already tried to format/(un)mount sdcard through CWM but no chance.
Can anyone help? I read about a method where you have to open the device and connect something to the mainboard but it isn't my device, so I wouldn't do it.
Need help

if phone is rooted go this dir mnt/sdcard/(files)
u can do this with wondershare mobile go program (wondershare mobile go is a software that allow u to manage phone file edit or install app or read massage that nice):cyclops:
so.. mnt/sdcard(files) .export those files with wondershare mobile go from that toolbar .
see can u do this or u will get error during export(beware after export import it and make backup) ?or check it maybe these files are deleted and sdcard folder is empty like my problem.
all my regret is why i didnt backup from that.when i bought it first day.
anyway i have same problem .phone doesnt recognize int/ex sd card and unavailable keep goin thread to find .wont fix with flash by odin at all .
tell me about those files try find them maybe they are corrupted .like mine.i think must take it from other i9003 that hasn't sd card problem.when u find plz upload cuz i need too
and it this case problem will fix with a simple copy paste and if not u dont lose nothin
I can't do that. When I type "diskpart" in cmd.exe and "list disk" there will be no device found (only the hard drive in the computer).
But the PC recognize a device connected to it because in the taskbar the icon for a connected USB drive is shown.
In short:
- device doesn't boot normally (bootloop at logo)
- in stock recovery and CWM there is no internal sdcard shown ("E: can't mount sdcard")
- windows recognize a device but has no access to it
Is it possible to use adb sideload anyway on the i9003 or anything else where I can use adb.exe? I don't know if adb works in Download Mode ... does it?
I tried this CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351056 and an another one with green letters.
The first is quite outdated (packed in 31.01.2012).
Is there a newer one?
Here are photos what the Recovery (stock) says after Odin flash (stock firmare)

i had exact same paroblem
do this maybe work (worked for me) .
this problem occurred when i used 16 gb toshiba as ex sd card (doesnt matter brand) after flash sd card and format it by pc that said ex sd remove unexpecteldy and turned off and whole battery charge was over. then i changed ex sd with my other phone and it work with no problem and when i replaced again 16 gb toshiba in phone ,again problem.
but after i format internal storage by phone from setting/phone storage . phone couldnt mount int sd till now.
so i inserted new ex sd and flashed whole rom with odin (MODEM, CODE, CSC, ...) phone started but without int storage i found out sd card directory is different and wont fix with flash STOCK ROM .but i doubt it for Custom ROM.
then i took ex sd card out from phone and turn it on again phone didnt boot up and was hang on samsung logo (same problem with 16 gb toshiba).then put that new ex sd card in and phone was boot up with no problem but int storage didnt come back..
so try with new ex sd and try flash rom (MODEM, CODE, CSC, ...) with odin then it will boot up.

and if ur int sd card come back again it will solve E:cant mount sdcard .first do two prior steps . for bring back internal sd again i think we need >>mnt/sdcard/(files) and copy paste those files in that location from other i9003 phone to our devices IMO cuz i tried many method they are useless. upper 60% im sure those files will revive int sd
I already solved it by destroying the internal memory on board and force install the stock ROM on an external sdcard. I successfully installed CM11 and it works except camera and downloads ^^
hi, have anyone found solution on this issue?
i am also facing same issue....

Hi Friend,
I have the same problem. flashing Stock, Kernel , custom rom. Nothing make my phone successfully boot up.
Can you help me how exactly you did this. It might give a life for my friends phone too...
Remove or replace microSDCard.
Perform a clean flash with ddlf2 or original firmware.
And let us know how it went.
Also i see people saying this mistake several times...
Internal SDCard or SDCard stands for phone storage.
Emmc/External Storage/ External SDCard Stands for the microSDCard.
Noting that custom roms usually change the names.
With a custom rom the microSDCard is called emmc inside the system.
Please press "Thank" button if it helped you.
