I wanted addoptive storage and at the time I was waiting for my bootloader to unlock. So I used a tutorial that explains how to format the sd card as internal storage. I did it and it showed the sd card as internal storage but never worked. It was still the same way other than it saying it had more storage so I removed the card and formatted it as sd storage again but now when I go to apps setti g then storage the option the change storage is completely gone I have tried full wipe restart finally unlocking bootloader and reflasking the stock room and nothing brings the option back
I know I'm not the only one with this issue so any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Thank you so much for all your help...
I figured out how to use my sd card as adoptive storage and actually have it work. So I am happy to say problem solved.

How can you use the SD card as an internal memory?
I rooted with Magisk and downloaded root essentials and use the adoptive storage option so far its working great.
I have the 64gb model with 128gb sdcard i will include pics
By the way I still have not found a way to have the change storage option not sure if it is that my sd card is too big (thats what she said) or partitioning or what happened I had it appear once and lost it again. My ultimate goal was more storage but wouldnt mind knowing how to get this to work still if anyone here knows
I still really need VOLTE to work if anyone has any answers...
My wife has the redmi note 9 pro and her Volte it exactly the same non functioning with MIUI11

Hi guys,
I tried to find solution but couldn't find. the solutions were for different phone and etc. so not sure if that would apply to my case this is why want to make sure will get right fix for the issue
Phone was working fine for a couple months but couple days ago I noticed that I can't take pictures because it can't mount sd card
Well I'm thinking I will restore from backup but guess what I can't because clockwork can't see the sd card so I'm kinda stuck here. I think this is a phone's internal memory card not the micro sd card. Am I right?
Thanks for help in advance and if there is a thread with same issue and device please send me a link as I couldn't find it.
Quick info about phone
sgh-t989
android version 2.3.7
baseband verion T989UVKL1
Kernel Version 2.6.35.14+ SGS2-Streamline #3
Mod Version CayongenMod-7.2.0-RC0-373_R6-Kang-SGHT989-KANG
not sure if this is enough info but if you need anything else please ask
thanks for help
Oh well today I had some free time so I sat down and tried to look for fix, turns out it is was external micro sd issue which failed.
Phone was setup to use external card. So after I told phone go and use internal memory rebooted and all good, inserted smaller micro sd card, just to have some additional memory and all is good. So here you go if you will have something similar going with your phone maybe that will help you.
how did you tell the phone to use internal memory? i'm running across this same problem where my external sd card is not being mounted or read
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 !
Hi new poster here,
So i have an t mobile lg g3 and i got the marshmallow/lg g5 rom. I got a new sd card and set it as my internal storage for more space but now whenever i try to go into recovery mode, twrp doesnt load. I messed around with it a few times and found that twrp works fine if I set my sd card as portable storage but it wont load when its set to internal storage. Id like to have my sd card set to internal storage and be able to go into twrp at the same time. Ive tried looking for answers online for hours and i cant seem to find anything on my specific issue. Any ideas what i should do to fix this problem?

Hi guys,
I have a samsung sm-t520 which I recently resurrected with lineage os 14.1-20190104-Nightly-n2awifi. I think everything installed correctly, but after I inserted my sd card I put it as an internal storage. Later on I honestly don't know what happened, but the card wasn't being seen by the os. I am getting an sd card checking... I just wiped the system, it recognized the card for a second but after I selected format as portable, I got to where I was in the first place with sd card checking stuck. And nothing happens. I tried formatting the card through pc, but it couldn't (unable to format, I even tried with disk manager). There's nothing on the card, I tried to format in twrp but depending what I do it gives me error 1 after failed formatting. I'm not sure what I can do with it. It's a 64gb card. When I try to change the file type on the sd card twrp just keeps working on it and then it reboots to the os normally. (I'm not sure now if it's not happening randomly, really frustrating)
Help much appreciated.

Here is a method discovered by another member here to fix a corrupted sdcard that was used as adoptable storage.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/corrupted-sd-card-adoptable-storage-t3801250
For future reference, adoptable storage has to be reversed before factory resetting or reflashing the device, then you have to go through the adoptable storage setup again.
In my opinion(many others would agree), using adoptable storage or any other similar feature that uses external as internal is not worth the hassle and exposes your important data to corruption very easily. Also, when using adoptable storage, the device will not boit if the sdcard is removed or corrupted. It can even cause the device not function at all.

Thank you for the information. Well, I have worked with Linux last time maybe 10 years ago so I don't really understand what is happening in this post. Is there a translation available anywhere to windows? ddrescue is available on everything but windows from what I'm seeing - great... Also, is there just a way to reset the card so I can use it in an automated way?
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.
