Hey alex!
Ok bud, first, which version of recover are you running Clockwork or TWRP?
If you are running Clockwork im more familiar with it as i havent used TWRP too much yet, but if so, make sure that you go into "mounts and Storage" and make sure the one of your options says "unmount storage/sdcard1" if it says the word "Unmount" in front of the option that means that your external SD card is mounted and you have another problem, if it says "Mount" all you have to do is select it so it mounts your SD Card.
Also if that doesnt work, go into "Mounts and Storage" and select the second to last option that says "Mount USB Storage" and if you have your phone connected to your PC, you will be able to transfer the files from the External card to your internal memory on the phone and then you will be able to flash!
Good luck bud i hope this helps, if you have any other questions just ask and ill do my best to help you

My fire has decided to constantly boot to T.W.R.P., I'm going to wipe everything and install cm9 but before I do that I need to get some files off of my internal memory. How can I do this without access to the OS? My PC wont show internal memory and T.W.R.P. doesn't seem to offer an option to mount it.

Posts of this type belong in Q&A.
Look closer at the TWRP buttons... "Mount -> Mount USB Storage"
Thanks for the fast reply,
I apologize for putting the thread in the wrong place. Maybe a mod can move or delete it. But, of course i saw the mount usb option, but this doesn't allow me to access internal memory, just the SD card, regardless of which options i check.

I just assumed you were talking about the SD card. Define "internal memory" for me... what are you trying to pull off of the device?
By internal memory i mean everything that isn't in the sdcard sub folder. Specifically i need to access the "data" folder to pull a few FPSE save states.

You can use adb pull to copy the entire directory or parts of it to your host machine while booted into TWRP. I have examples here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23747804&postcount=3
EDIT: ... and you'd have to mount it first if it's not already...
Code:
adb shell mount data
That looks like what i need, thanks a lot.

http://lifehacker.com/5237503/five-best-free-data-recovery-tools
Good luck...
i have try the software u said.
but the problem is they dont detect the internal memory of the HOX.
after uptade to jelly bean when i plug the usb cable dont appear like in ICS for choose to charge or to hard disk.
so how to solve this?
thx regards
did you looked on pc also...? it can also be that you must update htc sync because of the mtb thingy.....second should be look for an sd speed app..and set it to 128 instead of most 2048.....
if that also fail...the data should be gone...maybe a wipe script that also wiped sd card or something like this
go into recovery and mount usb storage

thx
so from that side all ok...if you are in a file explorer...and go to sd..you see something...? if yes..try to mount from clockwork...if not work...try to copy the files with adb
Tough luck brother, if all else fails then deal with it. Many, including me, have faced the same. Good luck to you.
When you mount the USB mass storage in recovery you have to stay on that screen or it will auto-unmount. Once you've done that load up Recuva from Piriform and scan for the phones storage on the pc.
Firstly Happy New Year to all on the forum, my phone has just had a disaster can anyone help please.
My AT&T Glide crashed today in town, and on reboot I couldnt see the MMC 32gb card, which I thought had been corrupted. Well it was, when I put in another 16gb card the phone wont mount it, then I noticed that the internal usb disk isnt mounted either or even recognised ??
Hows this happened and can it be restored simply do I have to download a new dev rom and re flash from the 1.18gb I have left shown on phone as I cant put it to MMC card.
My phone has custom firmware Osimood.0122.RUXKJ5 which has been great up until this MMC sd card crash.
Any help gratefully received as its my work phone and I need it up and running asap.
Many thanks
Paul
Can you boot into cwm? I assume you have it installed. See if you can access the internal sd card from there. If yes then most probably a simple flash will fix everything, or even a nandroid backup assuming you have that as well. If no its not seen in CWM, then I do not know someone else will have to chime in, seems like something is very wrong for it to suddenly lose its memory. Could be some type of controller our buffer that went.

Thank you for your reply, I went in to CWM and can see an update file on a the sd card so technically if I get the Osimood zip file I could reinstall the system but I am unsure which disk it is seeing this file from I dont think its the external MMC or internal USB so how to I get the file on a storage area that the phone can see.
On the phones settings, under storage pane, USB now has the option to Format USB storage, this has appeared since mounting the system files etc within CWM as most were set to unmounted, but it would not let me mount the sd card as far as I could tell from CWM, when I go to update system menu the option to install update.zip but which disk is this as I could not mount any disk from CWM to view mounted files such as directories etc.
I am in the process of recovering the MMC card that the phone crashed so not all is lost, but I am pretty sure there were files in the Glides USB storage that I would like to save if possible, if I format this storage I am unlikely to recover whats on it, but would a straight reinstall of Osimood format this disk anyway ?
One last question does anyone know what the option "download" is on the power off menu on Osimood it is along side recovery, reboot and power off etc.

Sorry one last thing I have noticed, when in storage settings SD card has the option to mount when selected it says preparing sd card but nothing actually happens the notice just goes and I'm back to square one, USB has no option in the menu to mount just to format.
I hope that the above is significant in what has happened here.
Thanks
Boot into CWM, enable "mount USB storage", then use a PC to check the internal storage for filesystem problems.
If that doesn't fix it, next step is to factory reset I'm afraid.
Hi everyone, thank you so much for all the assistance I have been at work and therefore forced to format the internal disk which once down the ext sd card became visible again ??? once reinstalling the apps again all is well again, my biggest issue is that all the sd card app back ups failed me as it wiped the ext sd card the internal was wiped on reformat so had to start again.
Note to self back up apks to computer is much safer the ext sd card.
Just hope it doesnt happen again the apk shopper was the culprit that crashed it all.
Many thanks brilliant forum.

I'm sorry. I'm somewhat new at this but I'm pretty sure this isn't what's supposed to happen.
I was going to flash a new ROM to my Note 2. I backed everything up in my external SD card (Nandroid and Titanium). I did all the wipes in TWRP 2.4.3 -- Factory Reset and System-- but I also decided to "Format Data" (reformat my Internal SD) which I now regret because, when I go to install the ROM that is in my external sd card, I find that I can't mount it. When I go to reboot, it says there's no OS installed.
I still have access to TWRP. When I plug my phone to my computer though, it doesn't detect it.
Did I just brick my phone? What are my options? Can I load a ROM from my computer or something? I really need help.

Resolved the problem. I was able to mount my external SD card eventually and recover everything. Thanks.
Hey guys need a bit of help. I have a HTC One X (Endev) running Cyanogenmod 10.1.2. My phone started to dislike certan apps and woukldnt let them run, I though great, A good reason to update Cyanogenmod. Now hgere is where the problem comes in. I connected usb Storage on my comp and deleted EVERYTHING from the SD card. Now I have no access the the SD card on the Phone or the computer. Any ideas ??
Thanks for your time
Which recovery do you have, think that Philz have sideload option. Go to recovery, select sideload and transfer rom from pc to sd and then flash.

If you use windows pc, go to Control Panel and find Auto Play, in that you can find "Device" and changed setting " Ask me every time". If so when you connect the device with PC windows will pop up waning for "Formatting Disk" and just chose "cancel" only.

Unfortunately cannot find device in autoplay at all
UPDATE: @snebojsa, Cannot seem to find a sideload option. if this helps when I go onto the Advanced menu on Philz Recovery I get an option saying datamedia not supported. Also for future reference I can still turn on my phone and use it etc but USB PC Connection doesnt work and SD card doesnt show

OK Open control panel and at upper right there will be "Veiw By", change to "Large Icons" and you can find easily "Auto Play".

So you didn't wipe the system, you can boot into rom and use phone? I thought that you wiped everything and have no rom on sd card to flash, that's why i told you to go to recovery and transfer rom to sd from sideload and flash, obviously you have some other problem.
Just go into recovery and format the sdcard then mount the sdcard in the mounts and storage menu ! Why so difficult
That's what i meant
Sorry, This is going to sound completely noobish but how do I format the SD card in recovery ??
Edit: Found the format etc, when I go to format it says error mounting /sdcard
UPDATE: I dont know how this worked but I reinstalled stock recovery OTA and my problem has resolved its self. Thanks for all of the advice guys
Nice :thumbup:
