Hi, I installed the Paranoidandroid rom on my xperia s, now the internal storage is not mounting - the only storage visible to the phone is the 2GB part.
The only way for me to access the internal storage is to mount it within cwm recovery and connect to pc to view on pc. It in inaccessible when the phone is booted into rom, and is also invisible to pc when in rom.
How would I go about fixing this?

Which version of the rom are you using? I'm on deedwars version 20140624 which he posted for testing in a separate post, not the OP. Ii can use the internal sd just fine. Also search the dev thread of the rom. This problem has been mentioned multiple times there, so the explanation and perhaps a fix should be there

Hello everybody,
I bought the above micro sd card but the problem is when installed it i realised that the phone dont seem to be able to able to mount it...
what should i do ?
Is it formatted to Fat32?
The more important question is what message it shows when tried mount it.
I have had the same isue, only way for me was to use a RUU file

I googled and found this on a other forum:
Code:
I get error mounting sdcard (no such file or directory) and unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory)
Edit: I Solved the problem by rebooting into recovery using rom manager. Thanks.
It's interesting how can be people independent and resourceful if the really want to. Then why we have so many question threads are beyond my comprehension.

Of course i googled before asking this question..
The problem is... I boot into recovery but i cant mount my SD. I used other phones and the card is recognised normally
An alcatel one touch 908 and my previous HTC touch HD.
I'm running Leedroid 3.3.3 Data++ version which means i cant boot without an sd card becouse many things run from the sd-ext partition and of course since i cant mount the SD i cannot even flash again Leedroid or any other Rom.. so i cant simply reboot into recovery using Rom Manager.
But since u told me all this i'm going to simply install a clean CM7 nightly and try to reboot into recovery via rom manager..
USB brick. Search for solution.
My usb working flawlessly. Everything happening had to do only with this specific card
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
As far as I know unable to mount sdcard is part of USB brick.
i can mount any other sd card but this specific one.... and i try to find what's wrong here..
Fire up Android and format SD card with it.

Where the hell did you get that information? The fact that an SD card cannot be mounted is not in the least related to a USB brick, they are two totally seperate issues. You may find that on restoring SD card functionality that you then have a USB brick but it's not necessarily so and it cannot be ascertained without first fixing the SD card issue (and by the symptoms as described I highly doubt he has a USB brick).
To the OP, I would suggest that you copy everything from the SD card to your PC via an SD card reader. You can then either format it via G-Parted (Linux bootable disk) or via MiniDisk Partition Wizard. Copy everything back plus the rom of your choice.
You'll then need to flash the rom (assuming that your phone now 'sees' the SD card). You're going to lose everything that you installed, there's no way around this. The copy back and forth is to restore your music / photos and if you're lucky one or two of your apps may find an existing file of history to restore.
Please also report any messages the phone gives regarding the SD card and also try another SD card (if you have one) before you go the above route.
wierd things happening....
When i boot into recovery with power+vol down i cant mount my sd but if i do it through rom manager it works flawlessly... anyway i kept it this way. I installed a clean CM7 build formated my card and then all the things i do i do them via Rom manager...

what are the recoveries u talking about?
when u go in recovery with power+vol down u access the permanent recovery (what version?); while using rom manager u access another recovery version probably (as rom manager use fake flash, even if the latest version should use permanent flash)
sorry for being late answering..
both recoveries are 5.0.2.0
Hey guys, I am trying to mount my internal storage from within TWRP because I messed up my Kernel settings and want to flash a new Kernel and/or Rom and need to copy it to my phone. I do not have an external SD card yet, so I am stuck with the internal memory. Device Manager has an unknown device called SAMSUNG_Android and I cannot access the storage. Any ideas. I am running windows 8 64-bit

I can't get USB storage to work in TWRP either.
It works in PhilzTouch Recovery. You can flash that through Odin (Unless you have the flashable .zip saved on your internal storage, in which case just flash it in TWRP) and then use PhilzTouch to mount USB and transfer the ROM file over.
This is a littel cumbersome, but it'll work.
Hi folks I'm new here so go easy on me
I recently installed CyanogenMod via the installer but I mid the s-pen functions more than I anticipated so I have been looking at the different ROMs on here and decided to try Phoenix ROM. when I downloaded the ROM and super clean as described in the instructions I placed them both on my ext SD card but I can't flash from ext SD via Phil's cwm as it doesn't find the SD card it says its not mounted. Is it OK to place the 2 files on my phone root directory to flash from there or will super clean wipe them from there too before I can flash the ROM.
Thanks in advance
Anybody ???

what is your SD card ?
64 GB ?

if you use a super clean wipe Zootscript Megawipe to clean, yes it will erase your internal USB storage.

Its a 8gb card I've got a 32gb one coming in the post but I'll have to wait a day or two for it. I know the card is working fine as I can transfer stuff to and from it but when I try to access it from recovery is keeps saying there's no card mounted

switch off and remove battery and place the ext sd and boot up and see if it detects on phone now proceed to recovery and wipe there u can even find a ption to mount internal storage so after the wipe u can place your file to internal sd but before doing anything just verify if the mount is working and if the ext sd has detected or not
Tried that but no success still says unable to mount path no matter what I try to do withe the external SD it works fine from the phone just not during recovery. Could it be a bug in cm 10.2
How do I get the ROM to the internal SD if I mount it with recovery can I connect it to my laptop and transfer of over from it.

I've tried formating the SD card to fat32 and flashed the latest cwm recovery and still no joy with being able to use the external SD to flash from. So if I do the super wipe how do I get the zip file for Phoenix ROM or any other ROM for that matter onto the phone to flash it
well, i am not sure it will work or not,
but have you try with OTG cable + thumbsdriver/ pen driver with the rom in it to connected to your phone to flash in recovery ?
if this dont work, probably u will need a brand new memory card for sure
Well i finally got it sorted i flashed the latest cwm recovery again using the internal memory and it worked i can now access the external sd card from recovery so im now running phoeniX v14 and sofar im impressed and glad to have s-pen functionality back again

I spent the last 6 hours searching and trying all kinds of method to get the internal memory to come up as Removable drive so i can perform a file recovery.
I am currently using the Cm11. M2 snapshot from 1/4/14. Before i installed this app, i decided to try Cyanogenmod installer from their website. The installer doesn't let me select or do anything, as soon as the app runs, it started downloading, wiping your phone and installing whatever rom it download. I ended up using recovery mod to flash the latest firmware but now, everything on the internal memory has been wiped.
I have tried using apps that would enable USB mass Storage but no luck, i was able to get the SDcard to mount and shows up as removable drive but not the internal memory.
Please help!
Hello Guys,
I have purchased a micromax canvas a1 from a retail store 2 days ago and there is no problem in the device except that i am not able to access my phone memory (or internal SD) with using any file manager app (root browser also) nor able to access it through pc when connected. Only External SD card is accessible.
There is no problem in app installation, i am able to move app data to External SD card and vice versa. The storage setting also shows internal SD and the app manager too displays the internal SD capacity. Everything is fine except i am not able to view the internal SD card.
I have unlocked bootloader and Flashed CWM and Installed official Cyanogenmod 11 ROM but the problem still persists. You can check the below Screenshots. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for that info. Hope Lollipop update may fix it.
Wondering why nobody complained about it.
Thank you again.
I was also wondering why nobody mentioned this..
My internal storage runs out of space all the time and it bugs me that I can't access it.
And as for nexus devices, they don't have an sd card slot at all, so you can access the internal memory.
