[Q] internal sd - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all
when i go into recovery,it does not show my internal sd.only ext sd.
any idea why.
andy

Are you rooted?
Are you on about the CWM or do you mean the stock recovery without root?

hi
was rooted,but all back to stock now.just tried to put jb zip on,then seen no internal sd.
andy

You need to root the phone first mate. Then once you have got CWM then you will have access to the internal memory and the external sd card partions of your phone mate.
Hope this help

You can flash custom roms only after Rooting your device.

Help installing CM10

I'm having issues upgrading from CM9 to CM10...
I downloaded the zip file of the most recent CM10 experimental and when I try to install the zip in CWM recovery it says that no files were found. I can't seem to pull up any of my files on the internal sdcard.
I had no issues installing CM9 or any of the nightlies.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is there anything I can do to check into this? I have never had any problems access my internal sd other than this issue...
Maybe you switched the mountpoints in CM9? Can you access your external SD card (if you have one) from the recovery?

I don't have an external SD. I have no problem accessing my internal SD when the phone is on but just not when I'm in recovery.

When I go into "choose zip from internal sdcard" I get the option to install emmcupdate.zip . What is this all about?

Just do it the hard way. I can't think of anything else. Flash a Samsung stock ROM, then check whether the same problem exists there.

need info

hi all can somebody direct me to modding the sgs3 as i am doing it for a friend need some steps like do i have to unlock bootloader before i root and stuff i am using hox so new to sgs3
Galaxy S3 has an unlocked bootloader, use CF-root to root it. The GS3 also uses a flash counter, if you root or flash a custom rom it will trip the flash counter, and unless it's reset with triangle away even if you reflash stock you may not be able to claim warranty.
Check out the development section for some mods (there is also a sticky in the general with some mods, and roms.)
No, Sammy bootloaders aren't locked (except verizons b*stard child S3)
Flash cf-root 6.4 via odin and you are rooted and have recovery.

soft brick please help with firmware i can flash through odin
Just go into recovery and wipe data/factory reset.
Get into recovery by holding vol up + home + power.
Try that first.

tryed it need to put a rom onto the internal memory but it not letting me mount sd to comp
And how did you delete your system?
It should boot after doing a wipe, unless you formatted your system partition.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
think i formatted system via super wipe for arhd
Christ sake, another person f*cking themselves up because of that script.
Why didn't you follow the instructions properly? Especially the part where it says put the ROM you want to flash on the external SD?
You need to boot into download mode and flash a firmware via Odin.
Sammobile.com is where you need to go now.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
am going to try put arhd on a extern sd and try flash that way will that work n i didnt put it onto exsd because i have arhd on my hox so didnt think to do that as i said doing for a friend
Ya put it on the external SD and flash from there.
Superwipe wipes internal storage, which is retarded, but that's how that dev does it.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
How did that dev not see this coming with the useless super wipe. But yeah put a Rom on your ext sd send flash. Or flash a stock rom through Odin and start again.

That's because hox has no external SD so wiping internal SD would cause this problem every time someone used that pointless script.
Its an absolute joke of a script, it shouldn't touch the internal storage.

installing custom roms

I have been having a weird problem installing roms to my rooted galaxy s3 I9300
i have the phone rooted, i have it backed up with nandroid, and i have clockwork mod recovery on the phone.
when i boot it into recovery mode the phone doesnt see the roms i have on the SD card. from all videos of "how to install" they were left in the zip folder therefore i decided to leave them there.
any ideas anybody?

Do you have a working sd card. TWRP will see external as well as internal storage. Place sd card into computer , download rom onto card, place back into your galaxy then boot back into recovery and flash from sd card.

If you have a rom in your computer you can adb sideload from recovery and will flash.
Probably too late tho since you replied 4 hours ago lol

[Q] doesnt show internal sd card

hello, i am in a mess please help.
i flashed a rom on my gt-s6802 now it doesnt show my internal sd card, which is 2gb, mounted. because of this i am unable to transfer old working rom onto my sd card and flash it. external sd card works fine when put in but cant flash from it.
i have also tried to flash some stock rom using odin but it enters boot loop.
i need help with mounting the card or link to any working odin flashable rom or any other solution you experts can suggest:fingers-crossed:.
thankyou
Try to flash stock rom over odin and check that you have put the right files in odin (Pda, modem,..)
