[Q] Internal SD-Card doesn´t work - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a problem with the internal SD-Card of my Galaxy S2 in CyanFox 2.0.
When i want to use a application that access the internal SD-Card (for example the Camera), it says: "Please insert sd card."
In settings i can still see the card. There was a thread with a fix for the Galaxy S, can i use it with the S2. If not, what can i do?

To me it works perfectly. For Internal SD-card what do you mean? The memory 16GB? Because it works really well
P.S: However, to receive support on some ROMs you'll ask in the thread in question, so as not to create confusion in this section.
Ask here, please --> CyanFox i9100 THREAD

I would write in the main thread but I can´t cause i dont written enough posts...
What I have to say too ist that when i flash stock rom again the error still is there. Yes, I mean the 16GB internal memory.

I repeat: what do you mean with Internal SD-card? The main memory of the phone? ( of 16GB)?

As i wrote above: The main memory (of 16GB)

I do not know what to tell you. If you happened even before then there isn't a problem of CyanFox.
Try to format the memory, nothing you can do more.

Formatting to default worked, thanks. Maybe it would be a good idea to add automatic formatting to the flashable zip of the rom so this error can´t come?

Has always been the ultimate solution to this type of problem, since you delete all the files (or almost). However, I am happy that everything has resolved

MIUI problem - SD Card Safe to Remove

Hey all,
I was just wondering whether there is a fix for such error running on the latest MIUI build from their website. Whenever I turn on my phone, I would receive this message saying Preparing SD card, then it would jump into SD Card Safe to Remove. The phone cannot mount the SD card manually from Settings as the same thing will happen again. I am sure the memory card is not corrupt as both the internal SD card (16gb) and my external SD card (32gb) are both recognized in CWM recovery, although when selecting install from internal SDcard from recovery, it goes into the external.
Hope someone knows how to resolve this issue!
Thanks,
Nicholas

If you got the rom from their site then your best bet would be to ask on their site. No MIUI development is done here. Only translations

mmmm alright thanks (Y)
But just for other people, they released a fixed version of the ROM on the MIUI main site, not the MIUI.us site, that fixed my problem

I'm having the same problem. Have you figured out what was causing the problems?
I'm not too sure,but being unable to detect the external sd card is a common issue amongst most aokp ROMs I've used.
As for your internal memory being used up, I had the same doubt and then realised it was mainly because of my backups. Each one was ~900Mb so that ate up most of my internal memory. Delete any redundant backups from the clockworkmod folder if thats your problem

Installing a secondary ROM takes up about 2GB of your internal memory, if that's what you're talking about. Anything more than that could be your backups..or something I'm not aware of.

Just to update my original post...
I appeared to lose my internal SD when I upgraded to CM9 RC2. Didn't bother me since I had external SD still.
When I updated to a CM10 nightly, I lost my external SD card as well.
The way that i fixed it was by going back to CM9 RC1. When I loaded that ROM the media scanner informed me that the SD cards were corrupt and reformatted it from me. After that I reinstalled CM10 and it recognises both
I had reformatted my ext. SD card using my computer before, but that hadn't fixed the problem. It would seem that my media scanner (in CM10) wasn't recognising the ext. SD or the internal and thus not reformatting it....
Not sure if this helps, I'm not as versed in the workings of android as many people are on here... What I did above fixed my problem though, so perhaps it might be of help to someone else.
Check out the thread for your rom. Some one else before you, has probably already asked about your problem and got an answer

My device is (samsung galaxy S3 - odin rooted )
any solution? thx in advance
I think your /sdcard is internal memory. The /mnt/extsdcard is external memory. If you removed your external sdcard do all your files and stuff disappear or are they still there?
If you are rooted I think you can change where everything gets mounted or maybe change it in your boot.img.
Also, it's not for nothing. Consider this an educational journey into the rich world of rooted phones.

First thx and about stuff disappear , no i can still see them whenever i use usb cable or any
its my first android so am new to expressions (your boot.img)
its ok just wanted to have more memory cuz my empty memory is 700 mb :S right now
and am using the factory rom ( maybe i have to setup rom so it can work?)
about education am afraid to educate on my s3 maybe i have to buy a cheap one until i learn how to use
thx again bro
Since you are rooted you can install a custom rom that has no bloatware. You'll get more space because it will only have the apps that you want

[SOLVED] 'Hidden' storage after flashing CM 10.2

Hello,
Yesterday I finally decided to flash CM 10.2 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (i9300), but now there's only 2gb of free storage available. I cannot see all the stuff I had on my internal SD before flashing it, but it's still there because when I tried to reinstall CM 10.2, I saw all the folders on my phone. Also in Windows File Explorer it doesn't show everything on it. So basically that means they are hidden, right? It's annoying, because all my music is on the internal sd (yes, I've made a back-up of it), but I can't listen to it etc.
How can I fix this? Please help.:fingers-crossed:
Kind regards,
UDO16

[PATCH]**Adoptable storage enabler** MARSHMALLOW

As you may all know Samsung disabled the Adoptable storage function. Even the well known S7 hack doesn't work on some Samsung devices.
Well now it's back...
Thanks to some legwork (no pun intended) by @longshanks197 we now have a workable solution.
I have created this patch to fix the issue by patching the boot image and replacing sm.jar in system.
This will enable the adoptable storage feature in Settings>Storage
This should work for pretty much any Samsung device running Marshmallow
I advise making a backup with TWRP before proceeding.
NOTE: Due to Samsung's modifications the combined storage capacity may show as incorrect, ignore this and pay attention to the separate internal and external capacity which is correct.
INSTALL:
Copy the zip below to your device then install with TWRP.
adoptable_storage_enabler_ashyx
For information how to enable adoptable storage see the guide below:
how-to-use-adoptable-storage-on-android-6-0-marshmallow
This may also be worth a read for more info:

No. You can't flash anything unofficial with stock recovery.
Can someone do me a favour and check if adoptable storage is mountable in TWRP.
I. E. tap the storage button it should list internal and adoptable storage as selectable options.
Works on the last firmware up to day? I have A510MUBU3BPI3

No reason why it shouldn't unless Samsung have changed something.

Hi there ashyx,
I had some trouble (Noob trouble that is...) installing your 'adoptable storage' mod on my Galaxy A5 2016, but after some bit of thinking and troubleshooting I was able to succeed without much difficulty, I have related my epic adventure on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sam...to-configure-adoptable-storage-t3458536/page2
As I mentioned there, I'm going to make a donation to you right away to express my sincere thanks for your awesome work!!!
Cheers,
Laurent
Thanks a lot. Its works great for me as well.
I'm using A710FD, Indian firmware, 6.0.1.
Please, I would also like to request you or any of the developers here, to develop a permissive kernel for A710F, Marshmallow
I've Link2sd paid version and it doesn't seem to work on MM.(Mount storage error !!).

In TWRP i try to install xposed but can't find anything(only show folders no content). what would be? I try mount internal and external but no solution.
Thanks for your work.
Thank you !
Works on SM-A510F using TWRP 3.0.2-1
I Hope we will stop using "hacks" for those basic Android features in future.
Edit : in TWRP I don't see adoptable storage(The fuse one I mean). I still see Internal Storage and Micro SDCard separated.

Hello ashyx thanks a lot for this awesome work.
But i am having issues when I am trying to format the card as internal, the device restarts itself. And now even when any card is not inserted it is showing checking under the SD card section in storage settings. Please help. Can i uninstall this mod and try again. My device is A5 2016.

I did just that only before formatting it as internal.
Formatting as portable was successful. But then when i tried to format it as internal, the device restarted. Since then it has beem restartint many time on its own.
Is it something to do with xposed installed ?

I think you should reflash the stock firmware and try again to rule out any issues.
After i changed the card it worked. But then i thought of a fresh install. Reflashed the stock rom. And now after all sorts of combinations of installing the mod with xposed root or not, this is not showing the set up function. It seems the device has become inmune to this mod. What steps should we take for this ? This worked earlier with the same mod
this works like a charm thank you so much , i am using galaxy A-7 2016 SM-710FD.
I have problems with the mod, twrp not reconice internal, MicroSD and otg storage, I can't flash anything... help
