Missing external partition - General Questions and Answers

Hello guys,
Im using CM12 on my Xperia l device where this happens suddenly and I'm unable to use my external sdcard and cant even format so i changed my SD and no result came .Here is the screenshot of my partition in which i couldn't find any solution ..its been two days of search and not close to finding answer

Sounds like something that should be handled by the ROM developer imo if you had it in the beginning of your use ,if its not a bug with the ROM you may try to do a wipe of data/cache/dalvik or if that doent work reflash the rom

Tried it many times but that results in no effect , even changed my ROM twice but external not mounting..Lastly tried flashing stock and struck on boot loop ..

G3/Apollo after custom rom it resets itself

Hi guys newby here and certainly newby on the android custom firmware user.
So i recently acquired a G3 (free) that was (and still is) in a bad shape. Can't use the side volume buttons as they were ripped off the motherboar
Also the stock firmware was a locked (by password).
So i decided to upgrade firmware to a custom rom. Tried the M12 rom but in the recovery could not do wipe (due to volume buttons) and although it worked, everytime i turn phone off then on i have to enter all the preferences from afresh.
Flashed a kernel with touch recovery (v5.0.2.8) and this helped a lot and i am now able to do wipe/reset wipe cache but after that an error comes with E: can't mount cache... can't mount etc etc etc and when it gets to do wipe dalvick cache it does not give me even the option to do that!
Any help? thank you in advance.

Actually, i had some similiar issues, some months ago... i actually ignored it, because it didn't bother me that much, but then once after restarting all my apps were gone...
so i guess it has something to do with the filesystem, because in g3mod.log there was an error on booting because fsck (the filesystemcheck of android) didn't return a clean filesystem...
i experimented a little and formated cache from recovery, that seemed to do the trick once, but not always...
running e2fsck forced with all yes through adb shell repaired my filesystem and since then i didn't have any problems anymore, but i don't know if that's so good doing with an installed rom, because maybe some systemfiles are ruined after that, who knows?
could you maybe post the exact errors from recovery...
Does your phone boot? How did you manage to get into download mode and recovery without using your volume buttons?

The phone does boot and works as it should now... albeit i can't get any sim card to work with it.Although there is a possibility that this phone is actually blacklisted (reported lost or stolen).
I used odin to flash different kernels, at the moment i am using G3Mod kernels and that supports touch recovery, and i ve also got CM9 as the main operating system. after that i use the reboot in recovery options from phone, thats the only way.
try making a fs.convert file
try making a custom fs. convert file n putting it in ur SD. else try this app g3mod configuration from play store n convert the filesystem as required by ur rom n kernel. U should check the dev page for supported file systems. Even I faced similar problems b4 on kyorarom. But now everything is fine.

[Q] OnePlus One totaly bricked?

Hi all
My friend has a problem with his 1+1
He installed Xperia SDMount (yes, weird), but it works, some time ago he switch storage mode to default and he formatted storage using PC
Now this 1+1 has many strange bugs, first time it had many AudioFX FC's, you cant do anything coz this fc dont let you close it.
Then it was some bootloops, storage doesnt work, you cant copy anithing. If screens shut down, it doesnt wake up any more. Bootloop can be fixed with wipe data, but he cant make calls and imei is unknown.
Tried to reflash CM11S, flashing kernels\roms (cant flash roms), wiping in TWRP recovery, but its all same.
What can we do?
Another friend had almost similar things (but he dont use any mods, etc, it was from nowhere) with SGS3 Mini, but its dead, in service center they say to replace motherboard
Sorry for my bad English

Problem with BlissPop: Stuck at "BlissPop is starting..."

Hello to everyone, posting this here as I don't have access to ask in the forum post for BlissPop - I.E fresh user
I'm having issues with my "recalled" shield tablet (wifi), I had it flashed to BlissPop successfully previously but when I tried reflashing it the other day I was met with a major roadbump: It just won't load the ROM.
The tablet freezes at the screen following the installing and optimization of each application - basically my screen is stuck at a small wall of text saying the following:
"BlissPop is starting...
Powered by Team Bliss
Starting apps.
Please wait for the optimization process to finish."
And before you ask, yes I have waited long enough (left it on through the night just to be sure - this thing won't load).
My procedure is as follows.
Bootloader is CWM and it is rooted beforehand.
1st off going into recovery mode.
#2 Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache - done
#3 Installed BlissPop via sideload, then gapps_pico afterwards (I've tried wiping cache+dalvik before installing gapps to no help.)
#4 Rebooting from CWM, here I've tried both allowing and denying CWM to "fix" root settings.
I've tried the first ROM I installed (when wifi/lte versions were available) and the newer releases - same problem with both.
After this I am met with this screen that won't budge, anyone got a possible solution to this issue?
Hey I just received my replacement tablet and was going through this process too. I did some digging around and found / remembered that having an external SD card socketed can cause this problem. So I powered my device off, removed the card and then rebooted without major issue.
Hope this helps.
I don't have any SD card in my tablet though, thanks anyways.
Did you format system?
If not then do format system/data/cache

Tried doing a format of system as well as data/cache/dalvik, still getting same result :/
Not sure its still helpful or not...i saw the xda thread regarding to this thread and whoever tried to flash the last zip got stuck at boot. So I'm guessing if you will flash a different one (by this time maybe they upload a new one) maybe you could get rid of it..

When I switched to BlissPop I had to format /data because TWRP was unable to wipe it. TWRP offers that option unter "advanced wipe". Might be the same with CWM.
any help my phone stuck on this boot loop and i dont know what to do now , any fix ? i dont wanna have broken phone i did everything that u guys said nothing works

MOTO G custom ROM weird bug/problem

Hello, so after I install a custom ROM, after 2-3 weeks of using it, my phone gets stuck, and then reboots. After the reboot, the phone acts weird: no notifications are shown, home/recents buttons not working, some apps not working and not locking and some options just reset.
Thank you in advance.

?? Yep i know this thing few symptoms were shown on my osprey so it happened to me bz i just to test many custom rom and many time there residue remain uncleaned even after many twrp formats (it weird but i think this happens) so try clearing your intenal storageand (no need to clean memory just remove it) even remove you sim crad and memory cards
flash a recovery from your current recovery if there is not update just reflash the current recovery and then just make it a reboot to recovery ( msg will pop up no os found but there will be no issue if you're rebooting directly to the recovery)
So after reboot put your memory card in phone where you will store your rom and gapps ( if memory not detected just reboot to recovery one more time) puff install things let your sim cards in enjoy your rom
If this thing failes go install stock firmware its an ultimate solution
i finally flashed the stock os, hopefully no issues now!

The same issue happened to me yesterday
So, now I am trying to clean flash the custom rom first
I've been running a Lineage OS PIE version on my Moto G3 2015(Osprey) XT 1541 for several months now and not a single problem.I think it's a Fantastic Custom rom that you might like to try,
http://www.droidthunder.com/android-9-0-pie-on-moto-g3/
Note:
Before installing any Custom rom do a,"Nandroid" backup and then a Factory Reset.
Then once the rom has installed and before setting the phone up do another,"Factory Reset".
I've found this the best way to make sure the install is really good and clean
