Hello all,
i got a question so i got a F240L and i tried all the latest roms coming out recently (for only the E980 )
everything looking to run well except the external sd card for me(but it could be my phone :s)
so my question is: are the F240's owners use one of these roms ??? sdcard working ?
i heard the sdcard has to be formated to FAT32 (my 64gig card fall to 32gig by doing this...) and it still doesn't work
thanks

I was wondering did you flash the baseband after flashing CM10 or not?
Were there any problems flashing an E980 ROM for F240?
Also was internal memory properly detected?

I didn't flash any baseband (call/data works well)
There is no problem for me everything is OK
Internal memory is properly detected

Thank you
Can you please list the ROMs you have tried that work
also have you tried a different ext sd card?
I've tried all new
Cyanogen 10.1
Cyanogen 10.2
Pacman
Slimbean
Cyanfox
I also tried another sdcard from my tablet which is under aokp rom
On the stock rom has no problem with
Also in cwm from freegee i can't mount the sdcard
I've already format in all way possible
Ok firstly thanks for sharing your experience. Is card being detected when you reverted back to stock or F240L custom Rom?
Yes it's detected and fully usable under stock
I just seen on a Chinese forum that one other user got the same problem
So I thought E980 and F240 doesn't have the same path/bind for the sdcard
I already tried some command line in terminal
HTML:
busybox mount --bind /mnt/extSdCard /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
but didn't work

Maybe a stupid suggestion but you can ask in E980 ROM thread if people are having troubles mounting external cards on their E980 as well.....i say this because many roms are in very early development and many people may not be using external card as internal is 32GB so maybe the issue didn't get reported?
Just a shot

Have you tried to check on the vold.fstab or maybe use that one from stock f240k.
It is under system/etc. Try to check if this would work. This actually replaces the path where your Internal and external card can be read.
Revert back to your stock rom. and make sure your 64gb is detected. Then copy your vold.fstab to your internal. Then flash your desired ROM. Then copy the vold.fstab from your stock to the new ROM.
Hope this helps. Hit thanks and give feedback if it does. :good::fingers-crossed:

is your memory card working on this one???
Yes it's working on this one
I think it's something about Version of android and the path "sdcard/1" on 4.2 vs "external_SD" on android 4.1
Did you just flash those zips as usual without anything special procedures?
I dont have much file to store in my phone, I am happy with the internal storage without the SDcard...

Here's one that I can think of.. Revert back to your stock F240 ROM..
Try this.
Revert back to your Stock F240 ROM
From your stock F240 ROM, go to system/etc, scroll all the way down and look for a file named vold.fstab
Copy that on your internal memory and on your PC since your SD card could not be detected.
Flash your desired ROM.
Go back to system/etc and look again for the file vold.fstab
Rename it to vold.fstab.bak(backup), making the file as your backup from the new rom
Then go back to where you saved your stock vold.fstab, copy and paste it to system/etc
reboot
Cross our fingers it would help. AND Work.

I tried to find a similar thread but couldn't. So i'm creating now
I use CWM recovery 4.x
I know that the latest recovery is 5.2.x
Should i upgrade it ? And what are the differences in these versions ?
you could have carried on with this thread instead of creating another one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2112033
just in case you want to upgrade,I would recommend 5.0.2.0.

Lol how did you find it ?
Anyways no one replied there other than you so i thought maybe more would reply here on this new thread
Few questions from you.
1) i'm looking to upgrade ( sdcard ) from 2GB to 4GB. How will i install a rom from it ? I mean where is CWM recovery stored ? In internal memory or sdcard ?
If it is stored in internal memory than there would be no issues. What do you say ?
Or do i need to have some CWM file in sdcard before ? Or a blank one ?

you can use a blank one straight away.CWM recovery isnt in SD card,only your nandroid backups are saved in SD card.If you want those backups then just copy clockworkmod folder from old sd card to new one.

Hello folks,
Recently I have flashed CM 10 via CWM 6.0.3.2 on my Samsung Galaxy W. (I followed this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1990795)
Everything worked out fine (yay) exept for two issues I have:
1. My SGW doesn't recognize my Sd card (internal) at all. (though internal is mounted in cwm menu)
I have several folders regarding my sd and external sd:
- sdcard> tells me it is "unplugged" (in German> translation might differ) when I enter via file manager
- mnt/sdcard> here it tells me my sd card is unplugged as always
- storage/sdcard0> unplugged
- external_sd> it tells me sd card unplugged if I enter
- mnt/external_sd >here I can enter all of my folders
- storage/sdcard1> here I can enter again
2. My SGW can't mount my external sd anymore. I can clearly enter my external sd's files, but apparently I cannot mount my PC. Especially not with Multimount because it requests me to mount my internal sd (issue 1).
So how do I get it to work properly? - is it possible to do it via Terminal Emulator?
Specifications:
- Samsung Galaxy W
- Android Version 4.1.2.
- Kernel Version: 3.0.80-cyanogenmod-gc689589
[email protected] #1
- Cyanogenmod Version: 10-20130605- UNOFFICIAL-ancora
Thanks a lot in advance
Hi, I have similar issues with internal storage after flashing to 4.2.2 and also 4.1.2. Model is galaxy W previously 2.3.6 stock.
At root, i have
/data, which seems to be my internal storage as the FX file explorer show it has a storage of 1.07gb
/external_sd, which contains my files in micro sd card
/sdcard, which ES say SDCard unmounted
/storage, which contains sdcard0 (SDCard unmounted), sdcard1 (micro sd), usbdisk (SDCard unmounted)
In the andriod settings > storage, I can see internal storage with total space 1.07gb, but unable to mount it.
My camera and gallery says "No external storage available".
What should I do? Please help

This can be done for the SDcard you can unplug and plug directly to an other device like an PC, but not with the internal.
So better try the following. Secure your files if you can. Reboot into recovery and format there both. Rebooot into CM10 or whatever ROM you are using and change your USB operation mode from MTP to Mass Storage.

If The Internal Is The Problem Then You Must Back To The Main Software 2.x.x
Then Back To The Edited Mods And Rom's
The Internal Storage Will Work

You probably mean back to stock Samsung ROM. But how will this fix corrupted partitions? And why "must" if there are probably more simple ways to fix it rather than flashing roms forth and back?
First of all he should format both and switch to Mass Storage mode to see if this fixes his issue. Flashing ROMs still can be tryied as a last resort.

I think you are mixing something up. First of all he didn´t say he can´t mount / access it from CWM Recovery but from a running ROM. This is two different things so it still should be possible to access both in CWM Recovery and to do a format.
Secound. Flashing a ROM will not format the internal Storage but only the partition where the ROM will be flashed to. They are not the same, so this is also two different things. So even if you flash a ROM but are having corrupted SDcards (Internal and external) they will stay corrupted till you fix this.
And this is why I suggested to first boot into RECOVERY, format both and finally after rebooting change to Mass Storage as the MTP Mode is not always working very well. If this doesn´t help he still can flash back to stock ROM.
However now I´m just repeating what I already said before. If you can´t get it, then I´m sorry for you.

I have just bought a new external SD. I formatted it as ext4 in CWM recovery, but I cannot write on it, neither as root (instead in FAT it is working properly). I have Cyanogenmod last nightly. By googling a bit, this seems to be a known issue on KitKat, but I have also read that it should be fixed in Cyano... some help/hint? Instead a nandroid backup from CWM worked. TIA.

Meanwhile I formatted my SD card as FAT32 again. I ran into problems accessing the card from my Linux machine as well. Somehow everything went wrong suddenly on both my phone and PC.

That app modifies the file /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml
I have already tried editing directly this file and it didn't work. Now I am using FAT32 without problems, but it is stupid that an linux-based operating system does not use natilvely a linux filesystem.
