Hi all,
i am in bit in need of help.
with a cut past action from internal sd to external 3 video files where corrupted when my phone freezed during action.
I hope they are still on my internal sd but then deleted (because of the cut action and they arent visible.).
is it possible to recover from internal SD with a non rooted device?
All my windows recovery programs do not reconize the phone when plugged in (because it doesnt get an drive from windows).
hope someone can help me!
So guess it isn't possible to recover from internal memory?

Hi, is it possible to swap the internal sd card with an external one? I have a rooted Sony Xperia J with locked bootloader. It is running Jelly Bean. I have a SanDisk Micro SD. Help?
How do I do it?

Yes it is possible. But I recommend you not do that because it is quite dangerous, as it might hardbrick your phone.

Ok, thanks for the fast reply. So, how do I go around doing it?
Ok, but...

Well.... The thing is, you'll be fine as long as you dont mess up. But its very easy to mess up. For example: if you wipe internal storage while using the mod, your phone is hardbricked. Another note: Various users have ran into problems while swapping internal and external sd (disappearing, corrupted apps, and your phone and apps might become sluggish if your sd card read/write speed is not fast enough,etc....).
There's a way around this, but its not quite the same thing. If you have large apps that store its data on internal sd (examples: games like Asphalt or large dictionaries), you can use apps such as "FolderMount" or "GL2sd" to move the apps' data to external sd and link it to internal sd (You're fooling the system into thinking that the data is in the internal sd, when its actually in the external sd). Of course, by using this method, you will not actually be swapping external sd with internal sd. And the apps are not moved, just the DATA of the apps.
If you don't care about the risks and the method I suggested above isn't good enough for you, and you still want to do it, search "vold.fstab swap external sd and internal sd xperia j" on the forum.
(Don't say I did not warn you!)

Ok, I kinda screwed up. I did what they told me to, but when I rebooted my phone, my external SDcard was not mounted and my internal one was un-mounted! Hence, I have access only to the apps in my phone storage... I did a backup and tried to flash the stock firmware but Flashtool told me that a folder could not be found and flashing failed... I still can use my phone, but alot of apps are gone. ;_; I can't even access Whatsapp! Any advice? Also, I do not have access to Root Explorer, and when I plug in my phone to my computer, 1 error message comes out: The process android.process.media has stopped. Any help? Plus, are there any good suggestions for common and cheap smartphones? Thanks for helping!
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 !

The app that you tried might not be supporting the s5 clone.
So i would recommend you to uninstall that app and then reboot your phone.
There is a change that your problem might be fixed.
did factory reset and didn't help
thank you so much for replay any way that didnt help
i flash new rom or the phone it turn up the same old rom and problem fixed
now i lost the imie how do i restore the imie please

Have you formatted the SD card using your recovery provider? failing that the phone itself?
Make sure to format your SD card on stock. On root it wouldn't work properly for me

Hello everyone,
I have a very strange problem that I got yesterday evening. Usually, I can find myself the solution or with the help of search forms or google but this is very strange and I need expert of Android. That's why I am asking it here.
I have a Vernee Thor E (the model of the phone is not needed I think) and I have a shared memory between my internal memory of 16 GB and a micro sd card of 16 GB. Yesterday, some apps didn't launch and I first thought I had to reboot my phone. But when I did that, some appls disppeared from my phone and all photos and videos. So it was like my SD card was not detected anymore.
Now, the SD card is detected again (and also as a shared memory) but I cannot access anymore the old data (about 8 GB). So the sd card is half used and I see that 8GB is used but I cannot access the data. Files are hidden. And as it is a shared memory, a computer cannot read these data.
Is there a way to have access to these files or restore the old link ? With some adb commands or something else ?
Thank you very much for your help.

Here is a method discovered by a member here to restore corrupted Adoptable Storage and retrieve data.

Thank you very much. So, now I hope that the system didn't delete the key. I will try this this week and of course, I will come back here to explain what I did if it can help other people.

There are other methods here for various states of sdcard/adoptable storage corruption. Try finding one that specifically suits your scenario based on what is or isn't accessible and how the card is or isn't being detected.
The solution might be different or even easier depending on the specific conditions involved.
