TWRP internal sdcard install?

Hi everyone!
I originally installed TWRP when I rooted today, but when I went to install and internal sdcard, nothing is there. However, everything else is there on CWMR. Is there something I'm missing here? thanks!

~bump

It's located weirdly under /data/media and NOT under /sdcard .

Yes I thought same thing but for some reason it list all of internal card folders and files at /data/media.
The ext SD card shows normal when on it though

Technically /data/media is normal. If you navigate to that when you are in Android you will still end up at your internal memory. All the other mounts you are used to (/mnt/sdcard) are only symlinks.

Yeah that's right...forgot about that. Technically the sdcard card space that we view as our personal internal storage is merely a symlink for the android os. Makes sense now. Thanks

Which version of CWM? Also the card needs to be in FAT32... use Ease US Partition Wizardry to format it...

[Q] question about Data recovery after formatting

read a lot of threads said that it is impossible to recovery the data as N7105 only support MTP mode while not UMS mode.
but i am thinking, if it is possible to have a apps/ adb shell command that can copy the entire internal storage bit by bit to a external device ( like external sdcard or even a pc using a usb cable). so that i could run data recovery program from that image copied bit by bit?

Enable usb debugging in dev options.
This would mount the external and internal storage that is rhe /data/media and not /data.

problem is, it does not matter if it can mount both external and internal storage, because if it is in MTP mode
there are no any data recovery program can detect the drive
just read that adb shell dd command might be able to do the job.
but as i wanted to copy the entired storage
is it possible that there are a dd command which can output the file to pc directly?

I had the same problem. Then I gave up

i have read many cases but with same fate as utkarsh said 'gave up'
Edit:
There is appl in play store, which can recover, but supports only Fat partition
So try getting your device to format in fat32 still can be help, but really i don't know how
Just i have read some command can remove your partition and you can create it to fat, later formating it again make it exfat
though everything is just assumption and idea, if you want to be creative read and collect information. it will never been risk free.

I know the app you are talking about. But it only supports external sdcard.

But link you have attached is interesting.

Why did my internal storage get wiped?

I have been on Liquidsmooth for a while, and switched to Infamous Lite from Liquidsmooth rc2. After playing around with it I tried to nandroid back to Liquidsmooth rc1 and everything went well, except it seems like my internal storage got wiped along with my Titanium Backup and a lot of other things. Is there any way to recover these things?

If you didn't wipe it, then I'm sure your files are still there. Use a file explorer to look around in your folders.

I am looking around, and I see storage, emulated, sd1, sd0, and all of them have the same files and not the ones that I had on my phone before.

Check the 0 folder?

I checked the emulated folder, sdcard0, sdcard1, usbdisk0, and all of them are the same as the sdcard folder. I know my files need to be somewhere, 1.6GB of my internal storage is being used. I just can't see any of the files :/

This IS the correct answer, it creates a 0 directory, files are there....

Same happen to me. Flash back to a tw rom and they should come back

Yes I flashed touch wiz and they came back and I copied them to my desktop. Should I just wipe internal storage and then copy everything back to my phone to free up that space?

There is a folder called "0" that contains all of your files on certain ROMs. It happened to me too. I wouldn't worry about it too much but if you want to clean it up, go for it.

Yeah I found 0, it does not contain everything unfortunately. If I wipe internal storage does my rom get wiped out too? I think my twrp has a wipe internal button.

If you wipe internal, it deletes everything on the device except the external SD card, yes.
If you do this, I would remove your SD card just to be on the safe side. Things go wrong sometimes as you've unfortunately found out with the data loss.

Just format the sdcard and you will have totally clean storage.

Bud will it delete my ROM i am on or only sdcard?

Sdcard is the storage and only wipes that, if you format system you take away the rom tough.
