Agree. Probably sd card is corrupted. Back-up your files (and rom), format it from windows (or phone) then move back your files.

Yes i tried 2 other sd cards but the same thing happen ... when i flash a mod then reboot it says "damaged usb storage" and dont see the card , i am 90% sure that the (wipe external storage) option corrupted my phone ! but i dont know how to fix it

Did you tried clean start:
-Format sd card
-Flash firmware
-Flash kernel
-wipe system and data
-Flash your rom

[Q] No internal Memory

Hello there,
I'm using Arconium final with doomkernel and baseband 36+patches.
My installation order is as follows:
1. flashing baseband.36
2. flashing kernel
3. boot into cwm and do a factory reset
4. go to advanced and clear dalvic cache and battery stats
5. flash arconium+timescape+sound mod
6. flash baseband libs
7. reboot
Now I don't have any space on my internal memory. There even isn't any space shown. I do not know how to solve this
I've attached a screenshoot so you know what I mean. I can't use the market as it complains "no space left".
Strange.
No problems here.
Flash the stock ROM again and repeat the installation of Arconium.

Try to use app2sd or Link2SD, you can move user apps to the sd card.

This don't solve problem itself.
Fresh stock flash is best option like Flo95 tell us.
Sent from my MT15i using Tapatalk
A really strange problem, haven't seen such thing before.
But only thing to fix it, would be flash stock and then Acronium again like Flo95 already described, imo.
Try flashing 36-baseband and its libs after flashing arconium+timescape+sound mod..
Thank you very much!
I've flashed generic stock rom and then arconium again. All is fine now.
Maybe it was because I have had miui on it before?

Phone stuck in bootlooop!

I installed ParanoidRom and everything was going fine till my phone did not start and went into bootloop.I'm really worried,i don't know what to do.
I've gone into recovery and wiped everything from cache to sd card but nothing seems to help.I have tried re-flashing boot.img and recovery.zip files but nothing works.I tried downloading stock RUU for my device but could not find the right one.
I want to flash another custom ROM but i don't know how to do it without access to SD card.SD card does not show up in my computer.It shows up only if i start my phone and change from "charge only" to "disk drive" but since i can't boot into my phone that option is closed.Is there any way to install the ROM from the zip file on my computer?
I have tried extracting the contents of the ROM zip file to the fastboot folder and flashing the boot.img but it gives a BootMagic check fail error.
Is my phone bricked,is there any hope,i can't lose my phone.
Yes there is hope, so don't worry
Go to recovery, Mount SD card, transfer ROM to phone and flash

R: Phone stuck in bootlooop!
Get into recovery->advanced->mount usb storage. The pc will open your sd card. Just paste the rom then on the phone do unmount

When i go into recovery,the phone opens the clockwork mod recovery and under it's advanced menu the only options are :
reboot recovery
wipe dalvik cache
report error
key test
show log
fix permissions
partition internal sdcard
go back
There is no option to mount USB storage!

Oh sorry I use twrp recovery. In clock work there should be a mounts and storage option, then mount usb storage

Ok i managed to copy the ROM zip file to SD card but when i tried to flash boot.img it gave me a BootMagic check fail error.What do i do now.
R: Phone stuck in bootlooop!
Why are you still trying with that rom?
Custom roms are sometimes bad, its happened to me 2 times one after the other....theyre just too buggy to work.
also putting stuff on microsd card from phone is kinda....stupid. just use the microsd card adapter for pcs they always hand out one along with the micro.
Download ANOTHER custom rom (there are many better ones than paranoid...foxhound or rootbox are good. Not cyanogen they still need to make a complete version for s3).
And FACTORY RESET/FORMAT EVERYTHING and then flash from rom package. Why bother flashing boot image?

Plus theres no reason to be worried if ur phone is stuck in bootloop. Bootloop saves phones not kills them. If it can't run the os (custom rom)....well it just can't. Take off the battery and re insert, at least it wont run out of battery life.
Then when uve got everything ready along with rom on sd card just boot in recovery mode and do what i told you earlier. If sdcard is a problem i remember there was an option in clockwork to have the rom pushed to the phone from the pc just like what happens when u root with odin...

I'm trying a different ROM.I'm not using Paranoid ROM i'm using PAC ROM.I don't have a microsd card adapter but anyways i was able to successfully copy the ROM zip file to the sd card.
I have downloaded PAC ROM but i can't install it.If i install it by flashing the boot image in fastboot folder it gives a BootMagic error and if i try to install it via CWM recovery it aborts the installation and gives some weird error.

I'm using the boot image found in the zip file of PAC ROM.When i flash this boot image it first sends boot but there's and error when it tries to write boot.
I was using the command fastboot flash boot boot.img but that was giving an error so i tried using another command,fasboot flash system boot.img and there was no error this time.So i typed the command fastboot reboot and went into recovery to open CWM recovery and chose install zip from sd card,i chose the zip file but it gave an error and did not install.I don't know what to do.Looks lik my phone is done.
R: Phone stuck in bootlooop!
Don't do that stuff without asking! I don't think it was a good idea to do fastboot flash system.. But it may be fixable. I've never used that command so just wait that someone that knows what to do gets here.

using that command didn't do any damage.The problem is that i cannot install from Zip file on the sd card,it gives an error :
E:Error in /sdcard/Winzipfile.zip (winzip is the name of the ROM file)
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.
R: Phone stuck in bootlooop!
Are you going mad? What the hell is pac rom? Are you fixated with paranoid android? All they have are.dropdown windows like tablets...not really very useful. Get a MORE popular rom, and more stable. Try aokp.
And dont flash just the bootimage. Flash it ALL. Reset everythung to factory and install FULL rom...at this point its obvious.the problem of the paranoid rom doesnt rely in bootimage...maybe its kernel.
So:
Intstall new rom + new kernel(just to be sure its not kernel problem).

How about googling something before calling someone else mad?

PAC rom is quite popular.
And only image files can be flashed and there is only one image file in the zip file called boot.img
R: Phone stuck in bootlooop!
dont get sensitive i was trying to help. What i meant was:
"Good sir, would it not be wiser to stop flashing bits of roms and instead flash all of it through cwm?
It does, in fact, seem to me that your downloaded rom/roms appear to be broken or somewhat buggy, perhaps flashing some evem MORE popular roms that the already very popular pac rom would fix the problem, thus liberating all of us from the madness you cell-phone is causing and making it's user happy once more"

no effect when you flash from SD card or External SD card , the effect come when you flash rom over another rom so you have to go pristine .. you can find pristine way in this thread link http://goo.gl/nleJk

Can you get into recovery or download mode?
If you can get into recovery, try wiping cache, dalvik and data wipe/factory reset.
If you can't or wiping doesn't work, try going into download mode and starting fresh with an odin flash of your firmware (stock ROM)........

Problem with phone and CM10.2

Welcome. I have a problem with the phone since the release of the nightly 26/10 firmware CM10.2. I have updated it to wipe cache + dalvik, and the phone did not want to boot. The only hope was to download mode in which the flash went and MG2. When the phone woke up and I thought that flash the CM10.2 of full-wipe, but unfortunatelly. It seemed that my internal memory (not about sd card) has been broken. In the settings, format the it, but the built-in recovery were visible on the files. I decided to upload the leak MB2 with pit file, then flash on the MG2, but it did not work. What should I do? Is a return to GB and JB flash again do something about it? Can someone with such a problem already have? I hope you can help me, best regards.
well , i had the same problem on 26/10 build , i did full wipe ( wipe data , cache , dalvik , and try to format system),but it still not work , it stuck on ace 2 logo and not going to boot animation , i must flash firmwares again ... , i have this problem only at 26/10 build
i hope someone can solve this
Yeah, we must wait...
Had the Same problem..

Yes. I swap. Nothing change it.

1. Use odin to flash stock firmware
2. Flash d-kernel for stock via terminal ( see procedure in d-kernel thread )
3. Wait 10 minutes from now for new build 27/10 ( i reverted commit that possibly broke your storage)
4. Flash it using cwm recovery build in with d-kernel
5. Enjoy your phone again
I hope this will work !
Yup, that helped me. Thread can be closed
