[Q] My Internal sdcard is corrupted! Please Help!

I Think my Internal sdcard is corrupted!
Please Help! Reflashing android won't work. I think the partition is corrupted!
Device: Google Nexus 5
Original OS: Android 5.1.0_r1 (LMY47D)
Recovery: TWRP 2.8.6.0
One day I turned my phone off, and later i decided to go into recovery. I believe I went inside Advanced Options and clicked "Fix Permissions." Then I proceeded to reboot. I was busy at the time, so when I remembered about my phone, I saw that it was still booting. It had been at least 30 minutes so I knew it was in a bootloop. I decided to go back into recovery and reflash the system.img onto it. No luck. I realized I had to try flashing the entire Nexus image (using the flash-all.bat). The phone would still not turn on. I tried flashing different versions of android, and here are my findings:
Android 5.1.0_r3, 5.1.0_r1, 5.0.1: all cause my phone to not be able to boot up (stuck on the 4 color flying animation)
Android 4.4.4, CyanogenMod (cm-11-20141008-SNAPSHOT-M11-hammerhead.zip): Allow my phone to boot up.
However, after I found that I could boot onto Android 4.4.4 and CyanogenMod, I realized that I could not get access to the sdcard!
Here are my findings:
When I go to the phone's root folder, I see a FILE called "sdcard"
When I go to \storage, I see a FILE called sdcard0
When I open camera, the app crashes (possibly because it stores pictures on the sdcard).
I tried to delete these files when I had root access with CyanogenMod but the file manager said "can't delete file." When I am in recovery mode (TWRP) however, I can see the sdcard folder and the contents. Just through every system boot, the sdcard is inaccessible.
After I realized that the problem wasn't due to the data on my phone (after flashing many system images), I realized my data partition might be corrupted. Then I went to this site and followed the directions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...o-repairing-corrupted-data-partition-t2577447
The e2fsck command didn't do anything as cmd said "The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem."
Afterwards, my friend told me to try mke2fs /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata
I typed that in adb shell and something happened. I started processing blocks or something. Unfortunately now, I am unable to mount the data partition at all. I am also unable to flash the userdata.img onto my phone through fastboot.
UPDATE: When I open up twrp recovery and look in the log I see the following:
E: Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.
E: Unable to mount '/data'
E: Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Updating partition details...
E: Unable to mount '/data'

E: Unable to mount '/cache'
E: Unable to Mount '/cache'
E: Unable to mount /data/media/TWRP .twrps when trying to read settings file.

Anyone know how to fix this? Please help, I owe you so much if you can solve this! Reply to me if you're able to help, I'm also new to xda so I don't really know how messages work. Thanks!

Try taking it out and putting it back in. It happened to me too.

By sdcard I mean the internal sdcard (/storage/emulated/0). Nexus 5 does not have an external sdcard slot anyways.

So you are saying you have no apps, no widgets, nothing... /storage/emulated/0 is your main storage which INCLUDES your system files (unless you have a phone or tablet that has a separate internal SD card - would be /storage/emulated/1 ... I am guessing)

Do a NXT-L29 TWRP backup will resolve the issue ??

You have to wipe /data. Then you don't have this issue. To wipe /data you have to write "yed" on the prompt

You can try to go back to stock rom with the rayglobes tool. Select "unbrick" section. It will flash all partitions to stock.

TWRP - Failed to mount '/data' (invalid argument)

Hi,
i want to format my /data but i can't because TWRP can not mount it.
I tried to change the filesystem to ext4 and format it but i stuck in boot.
It also says internal storage 0mb.
How can i fix that?
or is that normal with nougat atm?

yeah, I have the same problem. I think the L04 doesn't have a working version of TWRP.

same here! I tried to go back to EMUI 4.1 and use flash fire to update firmware without loosing root, it works all the way up to the EMUI 5 update then it forces me into TWRP to flash the file for whatever reason and then I loose root, and TWRP stops working properly.

How to uninstall Magisk?

Hello. I've recently tried to uninstall Magisk through its app but that doesn't seem to work. Some apps still detect that I have root access and not allow me to use it. Thus, I tried removing the install files in my phone and it still couldn't work. I have also tried factory resetting but for some reason TWRP won't allow it.
It writes:
"Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Unable to recreate /data/media folder
Updating partition details
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Unable to mount storage

Phone is still working perfectly apart from these errors. How can I fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

To answer this we need the following info:
1. What phone do you have?
2. Do you use a stock or custom rom?
3. If you use a custom rom, what rom is it?

Well, I have a S7 Edge. I am not that experienced with tech so I'm not so sure what I did for the Rom.
I flashed it through Odin though. I could dm you the link of the tutorial if you don't mind

Re-Flash rom
You can try re-flashing the rom (not sure if it's a word but you probaly know what I mean). So enter twrp (power, volume up & home button), go to wipe and wipe the following: System, Data, Cache, Dalvik/Art cache. Once you've done that flash the rom. Depending on what rom you use, you can see if magisk is gone. If not, try another rom (make sure it is for your device!!!). This should help, if not let me know.

Or just run Magisk Manager, tap Uninstall, then tap complete uninstall.

Phone no longer has OS and having trouble installing custom rom

Hey guys, hoping someone can save me from having to buy a new phone. I either need to fix it quickly or replace it quickly cause my job depends on having one.
I have a Moto 9 g plus.
I wanted to root my phone for a long time and today I decided to try since the Android 11 update ****ed up the camera on my phone anyway.
I followed this guide here
Root Motorola Moto G9 Plus Android 10 using TWRP and Install Magisk
When you have Stock Android on your mobile, You are almost free from bloatware apps. Even if your manufacturer put some apps, You can get rid of them in
www.androidinfotech.com
Everything seemed to be going well except that I couldn't get magisk to install, I kept getting errors in twrp.
I ended up installing the apk for magisk and used it to modify the boot file. I installed the image in twrp and on reboot, it went into a boot loop. I could go back to trwp and after swiping to factory reset, it broke the loop when I restart the phone. The problem is that now it just goes straight to the menu that you normally need to press and hold down and power to go to. I never did get to confirm if my phone was successfully rooted or not, I'm guessing no, and that that is the main problem now, as the phone won't boot up to where I can use apps, and if it isn't rooted, from what I understand, I can't install another rom?
Also, whenever I'm finished with twrp, when I press to reset it says something like "Phone no longer has OS, are you sure you want to reboot?". I read it is from wiping the data or factory reset, but I didn't actually wipe any internal memory, I can still view all files on it and on my sd card.
Maybe you guys can confirm my suspicions that I just ****ed up my phone for good or not.
This is what the error says when I attempted to install a rom, I tried with lineage and arrowos and I don't believe the problem is with the roms.

Thanks to anyone to offers any suggestions, this is my first time attempting this, so don't assume I know anything, I just step by step tutorials and usually don't have problems like this.
