Hey guys,
Had a question, i have downloaded several roms to my ext SD card, my phone sees them and everything while i'm in recovery. My problem however, is that when i try to install one of the roms it just freezes up and doesn't move past the psrogress bar. I was running Clockwork recovery, and thats where the problem started, I was curious if i might had disabled something there. I switched to TWRP and still the same thing is happening. I would love to see if anyone has had this issue and if so if someone could help me out. side note i can flash roms just flash roms from my internal memory just fine..
thanks in advance...

Hi all,
I just installed Auxora 2.3.1.0, and everything is functioning fine with the phone except for the fact that the phone doesn't recognize that any storage is present on the phone. Under settings > SD and phone storage it says "Unavailable" for both SD and phone storage where it would normally show how much space is available.
Any idea how to fix this?
Not quite sure if I'm posting this in the right place... I would have asked it in the thread where I downloaded the ROM but I'm not allowed to post there yet.
Thanks in advance
i know 2.2.1 rom had a sd problem for me and i was on 2.2.1 port but from there i flashed another kernel over (deAD hourse) and it solved my problem
I would try that, but I have no way of flashing a new kernel because I can't put anything on the internal storage because the phone can't access it..
I'm now able to successfully mount the SD to USB while I'm in recovery mode so I can transfer files onto the SD, but no matter what I am unable to get the phone to recognize either the internal or external SDs unless I'm using stock 2.1 update-1...
Anybody have a solution to this?
This problem is getting ridiculous for me... the phone won't recognize the phone storage or sd card on any kernel or ROM other than stock 2.1. I've tried Bionix, Auxura, and just finished flashing Deodexed_KA7 one of these that will allow me to use my phones storage is 2.1.
I also tried applying the fix found in this thread, and it didn't work.
Anybody have any ideas on how I can get fix this??? I really don't want to be stuck with stock 2.1 anymore

lol i dont know how to move it except just post new thread there
Sounds like you need a new SD card. Some of the stock cards don't play well with MTD based ROMs. I would probably get a Class 10 microSD card (be careful if you get 32gb, there are known problems with some of them)
I bought http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-microSDHC-Class-Memory-Adapter/dp/B0058GH4U0/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1335980268&sr=8-12 and have had no problems at all after!
You are flashing the THS build 2 first right? You have to flash that rom, then reboot to recovery by holding down the power button wile your in the OS and select the recovery option after that you'll be in a compatible version of CWM. Flash AOKP M5 from there.
Hello guys,
I have a problem that is very rare and I have not got into any other other threads to fix this one in particular.
the problem i have is that I was on Jelly Bean and then out of no where the phone went to recovery and was just there
trying to read the SD Card and it attempt 10 times and it just keep booting on and off to the same error at the CWM Recovery
So I got the phone into Download mode flashed the Boot loader for Frojo and then Odin again but with Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo.tar.md5
I got myself back to stock but it still have the same problem on not detecting any of the SD Cards Internal and EXT.
This make go and Odin back again a new rom EUGENE373_SamsungS_Froyo_PDA and the I went to STOCK Eclair and i still have
the same issue.
Is there anything I can do to restore my SD CARD?
With this problem there will be pretty much anything to do to the phone any more as it wont read the SD CARD for files, apps or anything
in there. Im getting an error at the notifications
Code:
Can not mount External SD card
Mountpoint absent or incorrect
I really need your help as I need apps for my job as i work on the road 24/7
Please advise on how to fix the i believe is the ICS BUG
Thanks
Soft bump
Anyone?

Hi all,
I recently rooted my phone so I could install a custom ROM. I´m new with android and also with rooting. After reading a lot of articles about rooting and flashing a custom ROM, I decided to give it a chance. Because the CyanogenMod is very populair, I decided to flash this ROM. I rooted my phone with Odin adding the Siyah Kernel. This worked and I followed the manual on the CyanogenMod Wiki for I9100. I flashed CM10 with ClockworkMod Recovery. Everything went fine and I saw the great interface, which is a lot better than touchwiz.
But I could't use the camera app: No external storage available. A 16GB SD card is inside. It appears CM can't mount the SD. I also saw the internal storage: 1.97GB. But the internal storage has to be a lot more than that.
I might think that it has something to do with the encryption I did within Touchwiz. I haven't decrypted the file system before flashing the ROM...
Anything I can do?
Update: I went back to the stock ROM, and could acces the internal storage and SD card. Then flashed CM10 again, and everything was working well!!

I am too having this issue ever since moving to custom ROMs. Its not the ROM as its happened on RR and RB ROMs.
I find it happens when the phone crashes and needs to be rebooted by holding the power button down.
Sometime after a few restarts I am then able to get the internal storage to mount, other times I need to turn the phone off and leave the battery out for a while but its just happened and nothing I am doing is working.
I really hope someone can help.
Try dori kernel. Should Mount OK custom is either 8.xx or 9.xx
I am using Dori (9.33). Having said that it never used to be as much of a problem when I used to run Siyah.

Try 9.32 I use 8.32 and have swapped ROM this week about 7-8 times and have no problems.
Hey all,
Long time lurker here with a new problem finally coming out of my hole to post. Most of you have probably seen the 4.4 Kit Kat build in the developmental section. Well I thought I would give it a try. Flashed it and gapps and no option came up to sync my google account. So I flashed different types of gapps to see if that was the problem, and re-download the rom and flashed it again. I removed everything from my SD card in the case that something went wrong. Well nothing worked so I flashed back to stock then used the overstock rom to root and install CWM and move back to my basic CM build. The problem is that Overstock keeps reporting a problem with my storage. Any suggestions?
EDIT: UPDATE
Flashed back to stock and tried using the dbdata file to help mount. No success, however under settings --> Sd card and storage I formatted the storage and it could be working now. The internal storage notification doesn't come up any more. Will try flashing something when i get home to see if it is fixed.
EDIT: UPDATE UPDATE
Loaded rom onto internal sd odined to overstock kernal and booted it up through there. Problem solved. Hope this helps somebody
