Problems after "vold.fstab" trick - Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
My problems with Ace 2 continues. Yesterday I saw random reboots, today I flashed stock GB with ODIN, did Factory Reset, rooted device and did "vold.fstab" with CWM. After that, I can't access my system memory, but yesterday everything was fine. Also my SDCard is USB Storage now. It's normal?
EDIT: Yes, it is huge problem. I can't move apps to SDCard. I will try to do factory reset once again and flash stock GB with ODIN.

Trick worked this time. Why? Because SDCard was in the phone. Now I have 7.43GB in USB storage and 1.10GB in SDCard. 1.10GB was not accessible at all last time.

Thanked you by accident, but if you are using a repack kernel than you won't be able to. Try flashing stock.
Oh boy...

What modem and kernel are you on?
You have to unmount the SD so it can install on the internal storage.
I have been having the same issue. Running stock kernel and unmounting SD card doesn't seem to help.
Sent from the phone my girlfriend said was too big.
seems like just another reason to stay on GB for a while...

Try mounting your phone to a PC and then installing.
Seem to remember something through kies...maybe im wrong but wasnt there some option when you set up the phone for default save??

Flash this cwm, ZedoMax gets the cred for this as I was having the same issue. Install from sdcard is your external and install from internal sd card is.......well obviously your internal.

Edit: Flash through ODIN.

CWM external SD card unable to mount

I was having no problems using and accessing my external sd card from within CWM. Than after some flashes and wipes trying out different roms, and even a complete reset to original rom through ODIN to try and fix it. I can no longer use my external sd card in CWM. It says something along the lines of E:/ cannot mount external sd. Does anyone know what could be causing this, and if there are any solutions?

If the card still reads on your PC I would try to take everything off it and re-format the card.Also maybe try TWRP.I don't have CWM right now but there is probably a selection in it to mount/unmount sd.I know in TWRP the option is there.
HaHa, I had the same problem last night and after spending 5 hrs +, I finally fix it...
After flashing some PA, Jellybam roms, both recovery and the rom can no longer see my mircoSDXC 64gb card. Flashing the latest cwm or twrp did't work. Doing numerous quick and full format on the card to fat32 and exfat didn't work. Restore the stock rom and finally the rom can see the card; however recovery still can't read it. Formatting the card with the rom didn't work. Went to the store and grab a brand new card and still no luck. FINALLY... odin a new cwm recovery fix the problem.... :banghead:

Did you use goo manager to flash? That just pushes the recovery img to the phone not flash it. Ive never had a problem with TWRP with any phone or tablet ive used. CWM on the other hand....thats a different story.

Here's my data point. I had the exact problem of clockworkmod unable to mount external sd card while making a nandroid backup. I tried it via the paid ROM manager plus app without any luck. I sent them a log file.
Then I tried goo manager + twrp and it worked. I donated to twrp.

GooManager/TWRP worked for me.
Sucks trying to use internal memory to flash with only 16GB total.
This is a limitation of driver support for ExFAT, you can force windows into formatting fat32 using a 3rd party utility like this one:

HELP! Accidentaly formatted everything

I know this will sound stupid, but I'm kinda new to this and I accidentaly formatted everything on my phone. Basically the only thing I can do now is boot into recovery mode. How cani fix this? Can I just flash a rom from my external sdcard?
Yes you can
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
So you didn't format everything if your sd card still good. Also in yourcase you should of probably have had a nandroids backup on the sd card.

If you formatted everything including the SD card that had your nandroid like I did a while ago, you can follow this guide:

Put a rom on your sd card from your PC... put sd card back in your phone. Boot into recovery and flash.

Phone stuck in Recovery (TWRP) OTG Transfer possible?

Hey guys.
So my phone stuck in TWRP screen cause like an idiot I accidently erased system files as well.
Now I tried to adb push a rom bout I tried everything and couldn't get my both mac/windows to recognize the device.
So I now got a OTG cable to connect my USB key which I transferred a rom to use, but how do I get TWRP to recognize my USB key? If I go to INSTALL > EXTERNAL CARD it will not let me click on it.
Thanks!
Can you just load the ROM on an external SD card ? You can flash it from the external card in twrp.

Yeah so I transferred a rom.zip to my SD card than I went into INSTALL on TWRP to locate the file externally but it will not allow me to access the external memory.
Put the device into download mode and flash stock ROM and reroot
(Thanks if helped)

Male sure your drivers are installed properly and you are using a micro USB cord that supports data. If not it wont see it. When you say it wont connect have you opened Odin to see if it sees your phone in a com port ?
Not sure why it won't see your ext SD card. What's the size of it ?
