[Q] Q:Resize /data partition and mimic as ext sd card - HTC One Mini

Hi,
I have been searching since past 2 days ...yes I know we can repartition the data and system partitions... but I want the new partition to behave as an external sd card ...did not find any data on this yet ....
The whole aim of this is to enable mass storage mode when connecting to pc usb cable as phones with only "internal storage" just have the mtp device mode ...please guide me in the right direction if anyone knows if this can be done ...thanks in advance.
Device Info : at&t htc one mini unlocked

[Q] ANY way of mounting internal storage to PC? (for data recovery)

Hey guys.
I realize the SIMPLE answer here is probably no, but I'm in dire straits here.
I don't know how, but somehow, my xoom deleted all of my photos, now I honestly don't know if it was on my external sd or internal storage things got messed up, but I'm currently running a full deep recovery on my sd card to check there.
I'd also love to be able to do the same with the internal storage. Since they took away the USB mass storage thing, this seems 'improbable'. But I really need some of the wise wizards in here to tell me if there's ANY way - maybe an old kernel? maybe there's a way to do it with linux!? If anyone could help me, I'd let you name my first-born child
you should be able to see both the SD card and the internal card mounted when you plug in the USB cable, make sure you have the correct USB driver. Hope this helps..
yeah, the MTP protocol allows me to see it, no problems. But it needs to be mounted as mass storage device for data recovery tools to be able to get to work on it, since MTP doesn't give access to the actual file-system.

[Q] Internal Memory of Oppo Find 7 a missing!

Hey guys!
I'm using Oppo Find 7 a (stock rom,unrooted,bootloader locked) . I removed my external card formatted it and put it back and for some strange reason my internal memory was missing. The partition for the apps storage(3.8 gb) is still in tact but my 9 gb internal storage space is just wiped out. Hence I've lost all my photos, videos and apps which were moved to sd card and also my app data. I formatted my external sd card separately using a card reader.
I've tried all the data recovery softwares online but all of them do not recognize my phones storage drives as they require it to be in usb mass storage but mine is mtp and my phone doesnt have any options to set it into usb storage mode. My USB debugging is switched on. Can any one help me recover my lost files?? Im trying to not use my phone much because i know if i do, the data will get over written and lost forever. What i need is for my internal storage to be read as a drive on my computer so that i could use a recover tool and get my data back. I would really like to NOT root my phone as its just 3 months old . Any other suggestion or help would be most appreciated . Thank you !

Help! Partitioning my tablet Internal Storage went wrong.

Just got my new Tablet ME rainbow 7 quadcore. I rooted the device and it went fine. The tablet has 1gb phone/system storage and about 4gb of Internal storage. I partitioned the internal storage using mini tool partition wizard, followed the instructions carefully and its done.
But after I rebooted my device, somehow it got messed up. The Internal storage shows 0.00b and Misc of 20kb. I tried to access it again via my pc but when i turned on the usb storage on, I cannot access it. Need help to solve this issue
Is there a way to somehow recover my internal storage or repartition it again?
Thanks alot, hopefully anyone out there can help me.

Either you use the "format sd card/storage" function from android itself or u can use a custom recovery like ClockWorkMod to revive your storage.

Seems as there is not a custom recovery for your tablet released yet. Have you tried "Settings->Storage->Format SD" ?

tried it but no format option. I ask a friend and he said that maybe I partition and format my intrenal storage to a file system that my tablet does not recognized. As a result, my tablet does not read my internal storage. Tried to connect it also to my pc but when I choose option to turn on my usb storage, it just keep reading (circling icon).
Is there a way to repartition/format my internal storage using adb commands?
or other way to access my storage using my pc?
Thnx alot

Does mini tool partition wizard show up the partition?
EDIT: Most stock recoveries / bootloader have a option so format sd card / storage. Should be worth a try.

Broken storage and /boot missing (or unmounted)

Hi,
so I have a really weird issue with my Redmi 6. As you've read from the title my phone's storage is broken and /boot is missing (or maybe unmounted).
Let me explain what happened.
So my bro needed 16 GB SD card for postmarketos (the SD card was in my phone) so I told him that he could have it. He had 4 GB SD card which wasn't enough for the postmarketos so he gave me the SD card. When I inserted it to my phone, MIUI asked me what to do with it. There were 2 options. Use it as external storage or extend internal storage so I selected extend internal storage. When the process was done, internal storage was unmounted... I tried mount /sdcard but it didn't work. Then I came across a video that has sm command in it and it was a partition management command or whatever. So I tried mounting internal storage, and it worked! BUT when I opened file manager it detected internal storage as USB. I literally have NO idea why (MIUI file manager detects it as USB but Google file manager detects it normally). I tried to fix it with the sm command, but I only made it worse... When I tried mixing the partitions I accidentally typed disks instead is disk (sm partition mixed disk"s":128,179 50). Then I think is started formating the partitions. I was lucky enough to cancel it, before it formats the whole /. It formated only the SD card and I think /boot. I don't think I can give any more info about what is did. I hope someone could help me.
Thanks for your time.
