Hello everyone, idk if i am in the right place to ask or not but. I got problem with the note 10+ storage missing, i came here bec the phone was rooted before and was sent to a device fixer place. To install the original operating system and remove the sim lock. Now everything was fine except for the fact that the storage is gone, from 215 gb or so to 32 gb. I want to know where did all of that go? anyone knows anything about this problem?

[Q] Nothing will install

So, randomly nothing will install on my droid eris (kaosfroyo v39)....no ideas why this has happened. Any help would be appreciated
Do you have Unknown Sources ticked under Settings -> Applications?
yes i do should i not?
Just a bit more on this. I tried to install an app, it failed. But I changed where it installs (from sd to phone) installed fine. So I tried moving it to my sd card and that was fine as well.....any ideas?
I've had this issue when I had everything installing to my SD card and then took it out. When I put it back in it wouldn't install to it again until I installed something to the phone first. I can only assume that its an SD card mounting issue.
This shouldn't happen often as its only happened to me the one time
Any fix for this?
I guess u need to reformat your phone memory and memory card? Do a full restore and see what happens... but make sure u backup your stuffs...

[Q] Why does my SD card keep switching from internal to external

I'm about ready to send my phone back and get a warranty replacement. But I just did a fresh wipe/format of the the sd cards and then reloaded all my rom and kernel. Running ICS using Owain/Harsh combo and I checked the Vold fstab and it has an 8 not a 9. also loaded a gb rom first because that's what the dev thread said to do. New to the forum not new to rom replacement. trying to get braver about asking for help. It sees the external and switches it back and forth every boot and even mid boot. no recognition of the internal hence why I want to just warranty replace the thing. I'm at my end please guys give me some suggestions
thanks anyone who can throw in some ideas.

what do you mean by they are swtiching? do you mean mounts it as /emmc then /sdcard? i really hope not cause that sounds bad...
make a backup, and flash a gingerbread rom and let it boot fully to check if the problem is still happening, then report back.
also, before you warranty it, try putting back a completely stock rom and see if the problem is still there.

well no worries about the making a backup.. i haven't installed much because of the issue, so far the sd card has remained as the external with emmc not being mountable from settings>storage...
flashing gb will report back
repartioning my sd card back to full use.
So my problem was simpler than i thought evidently the format that I did to the internal sd wasn't complete so while in gb I used the erase sd tool and voila I have internal sd memory again the only issue I'm having now is it's like 6gb instead of the 8 it should be because way back when i partitioned my sdcard for sd-ext... hence why i was trying to format in the first place... any help for that.

Is it the internal or external that's smaller than it should be?

[Q] External and Internal Storage Cards Unmounting automatically in JB 4.1.1

I installed stock JB 4.1.1 via CWM by paplu3. After flashing it I am facing a very unusual problem. My external card and internal storage card keep on unmounting atleast once in a day. I tried to find a pattern but the unmounting times are totally random. I have to restart the phone in order to bring them back as I can't mount them back from Settings.
Has anyone faced a problem like this? Please help me to solve this. Thanks.
restore your previous ROM

Thanks for helping mate. But the solution to the problem was very simple and basic. I removed the memory card and inserted it again. Boom! No problem from last 4 days. I used your trick anyway just to switch my memory card and phone storage.

Help internal storage is blocked.

Hey guys.
I'm in a bit of a problem. I just flashed the new cataclysm update ( the December 5th ) and now my internal storage is like blocked.
all of my media is allegedly " gone " although my nexus tells me that nothing has been deleted like all of my files are still on the phone but they are not visible I checked on the storage option and nothing has been deleted.
I tried to accesses my storage through the phone using FX but I get a " Access was denied " message, and when I try to copy new files to the storage through the computer i'm getting an error so it's not even possible to copy an older build of cataclysm to see if the new build is the problem.
What should I do how can I handle this?
Maybe there is help here

[Q] Recover data after factory reset (Moto G 4G)

I had to do a factory reset on my Moto G 4G as it was not working properly. I backed up everything using Helium and all the contacts to storage. I didn't realise that I was actually backing up to internal storage rather than an SD card (not present). After a factory reset, I lost all the backups. I assumed Helium would have backed everything up to the computer it was connected to?
Is there a way to recover what was on the internal storage prior to the factory reset? The phone doesn't appear as separate mass storage drive when connected to the computer. It is just listed as the phone name under My Computer so I cannot seem to run any standard file recovery tools such as Testdisk.
Help!?
No hope?
I'm guessing since no one has replied that there is no hope in recovering the original data?

Hey
U know recovery applications that I used can scan memory that can mount ... (I can't remember exact name)like using Samy or Sony.they shows the drives as a software not a mountable memory.like u put SD card on a memory reader n use that.it can be support by rec app but that one no I think
Try rec app in ur system or find a hack that can mount internal men then go on
Hope this will help you
Might see if this thread will help mounting the storage in ADB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2843152
