Using internal storage on AOKP? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

So the storage is a bit... wonky on this unofficial AOKP build and when I download things using the browser, it downloads to the internal storage. Tried changing the download path, no luck. Same with chrome. So is there a way to make the phone use the internal storage instead of the external? I remember doing something like that a while back on CM7 I think.

Cyan. RC3 Internal Memory Not Recognized

I am using Cyanogenmod RC3, however, the files on the internal 8 gigabytes of storage are not showing up. Is there a known fix for this?

known issue, and if you search the thread in dev section you will find ways to mount the partition. But, most apps still won't look there for files yet.

I checked both internal and external and found nothing

I believe miui currently only mounts one or the other. There's a flashable zip if you would like to use your sd card instead of the internal one, but no worry your data is still there, if you flash back to a different rom.

Connection to PC

Hey guys I have been asking everywhere but no one has replied me so I have no choice but to post a new thread. I have cm9 and when I connect my phone to the com, I can only access my external sd. Is there a way to access the internal storage as well?
Thanks

When you attach it you're going to see your external sd card. If you browse inside it you should see a folder called "external_sd" or something like it, inside it you should get access to your internal storage.
I may be wrong though. Try it and let me know if it works.

Try changing usb connection to mtp. Im able to see internal and external sd card when connecting to pc, but the prob is, i cant copy files from pc to phone and vice versa. When connecting to PC using mass storage im able to see external sd but no internal sd,but i can copy files from pc to phone and vice versa. So my advice, if you want to see your internal using usb nass storage, try removing your external sd and connect phone to pc again and see if youre able to see your internal. I think this is known bug in cm9 since external card is mounted as emmc and not as external_sd anymore.

I need to transfer files from the pc to mobile

If you need to transfer files urgently into your internal memory, my suggestion is that you transfer the file to your external memory, then you use your phone to transfer files internally from Ext.sd to Int.sd

If your phone is rooted, you can use Link2SD. You will first have to split your MICROSD into 2 partitions and format the 2nd partition as ext2.
There are *lots* of tutorials on this; use your favorite search engine to find one.
Alternatively, use a custom ROM that supports external/internal SD swap, and reinstall everything.

Anyway, I saw this guy mentioning that there was this app on play store (free and paid) which allow both internal and external SD to appear on the PC. It something multi sd thing. Try and search it.

what is the process for formating an internal drive that says i have 225 apps stored on it. Actually its only about 60, which means some how the internal was partitioned when the new load was being installed.. is there something i can do to have access of whole drive save stock apps and rom.. let me know please.. I cant install the modem until i create space on the internal drive.. thanks again
You can flash from external as well. For formatting go to menu> settings> storage. You should find it there. Formatting will wipe everything off of your internal sd.

All apps get sorted to the devices memory which is only 2 gb... eventually I get msg space running out cant sync, update or dowbload more apps... shouldbnt the apps be downloading onto the device usb storage itself which is 14-16gb??? Under settings , storage I get 2 gb device memory, 16 gb device usb storage and 16 gb sd card external storage and yet everything goes to the 2 gb partition... what the hell..?! I heard something about a wiping script. Im using the twrp recovery.. help?

Correct me if i am wrong, but with all android phones, the internal storage is partitioned. 2 gigs are used for downloaded apps, another couple of gigs are used for the system and the rest of the remaining storage is used for the downloaded data within the apps.
Also try moving some of your apps to the SD card. It will help free up some storage in that 2gb partition.

Ou might be right for the partitions but ive never had this problem before. I think something messed up perhaps the partitions? I moved all my apps to the sd card the problem is still there. The bigger storage in the phone just iant being utilized or sonething like that.. I was on the embryo rom for good 4 -5 months had ****load of apps and never had an issue.. been running jedi rom for a few weeks and encoutered this problem. It just doesnt make sence.

I had this same issue on jmt v5, I have no idea what caused it or how to fix it I tried everything, it's like the Rom won't store anything anywhere but the system partition, it's very strange, I switched to embryo Rom by Mohan, all the great touchwiz stuff, very fast and stable, only difference is no Wi-Fi calling, but if u can handle that go flash embryo, best touchwiz Rom I've seen to date
