Get storage.xml file from your stock rom and put it in /data/system/storage.xml in your current rom.
This may fix your internal storage problem.
Take nandroid backup first before trying this because I am not sure this will work or not.

This ROM.....
This ROM is not properly built by the developer, so you need flash another trusted and stable custom ROM like lineage is and aosp.
Visit this XDA thread to find stable ROM for your device.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...on-roms-kernels-recoveries--other-development

Can you explain further on this pls, I have a similar issue here.

Of course, all though I think you're gonna have to reflash the original ROM and start over again.

1. Go into cwm recovery and go to mount sd.
2. Once mounted, download the original stock rom (search stock rom u8150 on google and look for it on filecrop, mediafire, etc) , extract the file.
3. Make a file on the root of your SD called "dload". Move "UPDATE.APP" from the extracted files to "dload".
4. Turn off phone, hold red key, volume up and power until it boots and says "updating firmware".
5.Done!
boot into recovery wipe everything and then reflash your rom

[Q] Can't see whole internal SD card to clean up

Hi,
I hope the title makes sense
I have the HTC One, but I know the issue I have is not unique to this device. I have flashed a couple custom sense roms, and what I have found is that I seem to have 2 parts of my internal sd card for some reason. When I boot into recovery to flash something, it finds the old sd card, but when out of recovery, I only have access to one, which according to recovery, is in "0". Because the roms I'm on are only using "0", I'd like to delete the original, but I can't because I can only see it when in recovery.
Is there something I can do? I've did a bit of looking around with no luck.
thanks
Anyone?
Same issue
Has anyone heard of this?
I am having same problem....
I am sure it is something dumb I am just missing but I have his issue to a T....
Have you tried to format your sd card from pc ? Or maybe you can try to flash another custom recovery, i use Philz Touch and it has never given me any problems
running CWrecovery. That is the only place I can see the whole SD card (in recovery) but I have to go to SDCARD directory to see what I copied on the phone recently.
It is like I am prevented from going up a directory when the phone is booted up.
I would like to recover what is on my phone so I am trying not to format.
Thanks for the help BTW

No problem I'm not an expert but I've had so many issues with new roms that maybe I can help a little
you could try:
-flash Philz Touch with Odin
-dismounting and mounting the SD card
-mount USB storage from recovery and see if from your pc you can at least copy your data
-though I think you'll need to format sd to solve the problem

i got back my imei fixed through a local store. i tried everything which didn't work at that moment. now i have my imei and i used mtk droid tools to take a backup this time and tried the whole process again. i used sp flash tools and the zip method for increasing internal memory for installing color os rom. but it didn't work again.
the current status of my phone is that i am using stock rom which is rooted but all i wanted to ask is that did i mess up with my internal sd card which is actually not allowing me to install color os rom? or is it something else? because i did each and every step correctly each time.

so what do you think is the exact problem? the storage space space showing on my pc used to more before i tried to increase it.
and do you think this has been the problem which is not allowing me to install color os rom? please help me bro i am tired with the stock rom. I wonder flashing custom roms in mmx a52 was much more easier lol

I followed each step correctly..
i used 880mb partition file for that i did wipe data/factory reset>wipe cache>wipe system> wipe dalvik cache and then installed 880mb.zip
as memntioned in that thread i installed the rom zip directly after that and rebbot system. i was supposed to get the bootloop at first which i got and then i did wipe data/factory reset>wipe cache>wipe system> wipe dalvik cache again and installed rom again. but i am stuck in bootloop.
i was reading the reviews in color os thread and it was mentioned to unmount cache and sytem before flashing i did that too but no luck.
so please let me know if i did anything wrong because thiis is all i have been trying.

Figured out internal Sd card mount error clear solution.
Here's what i think you have done
You did a system partition with sptool and also tried zip like 507mb to 1gb or in between .
I had the same problem of lost internal sd card in file manager.
If you want it back or increase system partition try factory mode to format unmount error of internal sd card.
follow these steps.
1) take or keep a backup in sd card.
2) go into cwm recovery mode and flash 507mb partition zip or 1gb partition zip(507mb for undo partition and 1gb for partition)
3)To solve mount issue without external sd card go to factory mode after the flash.
select "Full test" option in it select memory it'll show 3 options
1 Format ext...
2 test pass
3 test fail
And it shows the space in yellow text in two sd card as 0 mb or any . Select the first option which will increase the space of internal sd.
After you'll just need to update or restore backup to successfully fix mount error for internal sd card either for partition or undo partition.
This worked for me when i just tried various format option to format the partition error.

Need for Phicomm e670 ROM

Last night i updated my Phicomm e670 and now i'm stucking, staring at my phone's logo unable to start. So i decided to do a flashing myself but i would be needing the specific ROM for my phone model. Can someone help me find it? Where can i get the file? Please ...
Go to phicomm website. There you will get updated latest firmware of e670. Download it. Place it on your memory card. Then restart phone pressing power' and voume up button together in stock recovery. There u can update ur mobile to stock rom updated. Hope it helps.
Problem!
Thnks 4 da rply. I still have a problem regarding to that because when i enter update from sd card, nothing shows except sd card not mount. When i connect with cable my computer cannot detect my device. What to do? Please help..
have u download the updated stock rom (around 785mb) from phicomm website? If yes then Just place it in ur sd card by a card reader. Then insert sd card in ur mobile. Then proceed in mobile as i stated in above post. U need not connect ur mobile to pc. Feel free to ask. It should not show mounting problem if ur sd card is not damaged.
Still problem
Yes i've downloaded the updater rom from phicomm.in. My problem is that when i enter recovery mode like u said and enter update from sd card, there is nothing even though i copied the rom into my sd card (which is fine) from my pc and it still shows unmount problem. When i tried using cable, my computer cannot detect properly. What could possible be the problem? I've bought this just last week. This is happening all because i updated the system which shows about 38mb which I should have never done it.
Sorry for late response. I can understand your problem. I had also faced same issue when i updated the 38mb file because i was trying to update it without unrooting my mobile which was previously rooted by kingroot apk. After 3/4 days i have updated it using the method i had mentioned already. I m now out of idea, which caused u the upgrading issue. Small thought, did u tried to upgrade it when it was connected to pc by usb ? It doesn't need to connect to pc while installing.
---------- Post added at 12:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ----------
Another thought. Back up sd card data in pc. Format the sd card in fat32 system in 'hp usb formatter ' (download googling it on net) or pc's native formatter applicatin in pc. Then place rom and try to upgrade as mentioned earliar.

Install TWRP on S7 SM-G930F with flashify

Hello
I have a question. Can I install TWRP Recovery on S7 using flashify? Will I then be able to install mods like magisk and so without wipping all my data?

HI
TWRP recommends Odin but yes is possible to do it with flashify , regarding mods it should work...also if you put the mods on the SD card instead of the internal memory and use TWRP
Remember to swipe in TWRP to allow modifications......
Thanks for your fast answer.
But do I have to wipe my data EVERY time I want to install something with twrp? Can I flash things when I have everything on stock (bootloader,kernel etc.)

Not sure what you mean.....
You only have to format data ( apps , music , photos, backups...) if you want it available from TWRP ( MTP transfer for example or flashing mods from the internal memory) , if you backup to external SD or flash mods from External SD you do not need to format the internal data

Second part of your question...
yes , they are not located on the data partition so no need to wipe anything there to flash them
So, when I see it right, I don't have to wipe my data before installing when I have the flash the folders? And can I just swipe to allow system modifications and then do my stuff?
Remember: I have a s7 exynos!

In many youtubetutorials they are flasing something like no verity encrypt so that the phone can start. Do I need to do this?

You only wipe data if you want to use that partition with TWRP , for example to save your nandroid to the data partition or save a mod in the data partition and flash it from there ( you can also use the external SD for this) or transfer a file (MTP) while you are in recovery mode..... if you have no need for this then is not necessary to format the data , you do need to allow system modifications from TWRP to be able to flash mods

You only need that file if you format the data and get rid of the encryption
