Ok, I'm not sure what the problem is but every time I open ES File Explorer it tells me my SD card is unmounted or not present. However, all my programs installed to the sd card run and if I use Astro file explorer I can access the files on my SD card. Also, If I go to applications and clear data for Es file manager it will run until I reboot my phone and then it will not work again. I've tried unistalling it and reinstalling it and it will run unitl I reboot and I still get the same error. I've searched this forum and on google and have not seen anybody else experiensing the same problem. Does anyone know what's causing this? Thanks.
Nobody has any suggestions?
Try going into settings and unmount your SD and mount it again. Then open ES and try again. If that doesn't work then try the above steps again and uninstall and reinstall ES before opening it.

I am having this issue as well. I think it started with the latest update.
I have same problem... I reboot phone. Same problem. I end up uninstalling and reinstalling then it works for a few days then problem comes up again. So I repeat process.

Try Root Explorer
I was having this problem as well. It occurred after I allowed es to have root access, and then tried to connect my phone to my computer through USB to transfer files. I was however not able to transfer files between my computer because the mass storage button on my phone would not process any function. I resolved this problem by enabling debugging mode, then pressing the mass storage button. After transferring some apks, I disconnected my device to install them. However, as I stated, when I opened es it gave me the "unable to mount SD card" error. The only way to resolve this I found was to go back into es and disable root access. After I did that I was immediately taken to my SD mount.
I fixed the issue by going into application, ES explorer and clicking clear data.
Unfortunately you lose settings, but it saves reinstalling.
nope!!!!
the way to fix this permanently is to go to settings and disable root access.
works perfect!!!!!!! and dont need root access ALL the time lol
SD Card unmounted or not present. Here is the fix:
Android ES File Explorer Error:
SD Card unmounted or not present. Here is the fix:
The path is the problem.
1. Launch ES File Explorer
2. Click on "Menu", "Settings", "Home Directory".
3. Change the path to exactly the following (only the one slash as shown):
mnt/sdcard
4. You may need to refresh by exiting ES File Explorer and re-launching it, or by pushing the home icon in the main program screen.
5. Celebration!

I just got my first Droid cell phone, and was having a problem finding my external flash memory card also.
In ES File Explorer settings, (open program, tap menu pad, elect "Settings"), and then scroll down to "Up to root". Enable "Up to root". This lets you tap the back button all the way to the roo directory of whatever file system you are browsing.
The path to the external flash card is /mnt/sdcard-ext
This means you tap the back pad until you see / as your path up top, then scroll down to "mnt", and select that. Then you scroll down to "sdcard-ext" and tap that. You are now browsing your external sdcard. Add it to favorites, so you don't ahve to do that again!
While I am new to Droid phones, I am not new to Linux. I run it exclusively on everything. Basically, the android operating system is a screwed up version of Linux. Google uses Linux to get the system going, then they make it so you can't run any of the tens of thousands of already finished nifty open source Linux programs, such as LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird, etc...
Hi
I recently restored my Nexus with the toolkit but when it put the files back, I think a permissions problem has occurred. I can rename folders, but I can't delete them. I have a rather large folder that I can't get rid of. When I try in various programs, it says delete failed, or no permissions, etc.
I am rooted, and have installed Terminal emulator, but am not terribly familiar with how to use it.
Any tips would be helpful.
Thanks

Simple solution might just be that your file explorer app doesn't have root access. Force stop it in apps->settings, check your superuser app and clear any saved entries for it, and launch the app again. It should request root privileges.
Where are the files/folders in question located? If they're in a secure place like /system/ then it's more likely to be the above scenario. If they're just in your sdcard folder, are they user made, or at all special?
Edit: Also in the future, this sort of thing is what the Q&A forum is for.

I was using Root explorer, and have granted it root access
It is in /SDcard, so it shouldn't be anything that's protected

Did you check the permissions for what you're trying to delete? They're displayed right in the normal view in root explorer, and you can edit them from the long press menu.
Anything unusual about the files/folders themselves? Were they created on the phone? By you? By apps? Copied and pasted over USB from a computer? You could try deleting from your computer over USB.
As for command line options, you can try 'rm -r [path]' for a folder and just 'rm [path]' for a file. rm is the delete(remove) command, -r is the recursive flag to apply the action to all items in the directory if a directory is the target. Pretty sure that you can do that straight from terminal emulator on your phone, and from a command prompt over usb you'd need to use 'adb shell' first.

In root explorer the info under the folder says
rwxrwxr -x
I'm pretty sure that the problem started when I restored from the nexus toolkit on pc. I had a similar problem with my camera in that it couldn't save pictures to a folder, but all I did was rename the folder, and the camera app created a new one.
rm -r [path] in terminal emulator says "permission denied"
EDIT
upon further googleing, the 'chmod' command might be what I want, but I'm not sure which syntax is right.

For chmod you want 'chmod [number] [path]', where number is a string that's a bit complicated to explain. You can learn about it by googling chmod probably better than I could type it out here on the fly. But if you use 777, it should assign full permissions, which would display as rwxrwxrwx in root explorer.
You can achieve the exact same effect in root explorer though, long press and choose permissions and you'll get a 3x3 grid. All boxes checked= full permissions, same as chmod 777. The three lower boxes for special permissions should be unchecked (fyi, they would turn chmod's numeric component into a 4 digit number, and as far as I know, android doesn't really use them at all).
Also, did you type su in terminal first? It doesn't innately have root (just like any app) so you need to do that and confirm the popup first. You'll need to do this before using chmod, and if you didn't do it before using rm, try it again.
Worth a try but just for reference, rwxrwxr-x is the normal permissions set for folders on the sdcard, so that's not immediately looking like a problem.
at the top of root explorer, theres a button that says mount r/w. press it, now it should say mount r/o. go ahead and delete that file now

it might be the files within the folder, rather than the folder itself. going into it, some of the files have a shield on them
When I go into its permissions, some of them were unchecked. I checked the 9 at the top, and it says:
"permissions change was not successful. Please note that some files systems (e.g. SD card) do now allow permission changes."

Well under normal circumstances, individual files on your sdcard should have permissions rw-rw-r--, and folders have rwxrwxr-x. (For reference, this is read as read, write, execute for Root, System, and Other, with dashes indicating that a permission is denied. So rwxrwxr-x means all permissions are granted to all three groups except for write to Other). This ties into larger aspects of the OS that basically exist to stop individual apps from reading or writing whatever they want without being included in groups.
The fact that you can't do something that shouldn't require elevated permissions, and you're getting that kind of error when you try to execute commands with higher permissions, suggests to me that your sdcard partition is using the wrong filesystem. Sort of sounds like a program tried to treat it like a real sdcard and formatted it to something else, in which case I have a hunch you're going to need to back up your data and do a full reset.
You might get a simpler solution if you ask in the thread for the toolkit you used. It's not something I have any experience with so good luck.
Out of curiosity, are you on Jellybean now? Jellybean changed the address for the sdcard partition, so if the toolkit wasn't updated to reflect this, it seems like the likely place things may have gone wrong.
---------- Post added at 07:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------
Actually if you want to check if it's using the right filesystem, run the command 'mount' from terminal. It'll give you a bunch of information, probably towards the bottom will be a line that mentions sdcard. Mine reads as
/dev/fuse /storage/sdcard0 fuse [more info about how it's currently mounted]
Yours -should- say that if you're on JB. If you're not, it should say something instead of /storage/sdcard0 (maybe /mnt/sdcard? I forget how it was on ICS). If it says something in place of fuse that may be the problem.
..I actually think mount used to say that the sdcard block was formatted as yaffs2, while everything else was formatted as ext4. Or maybe I just looked up that it was yaffs2 online, not from terminal on my phone? I wonder if this whole thing is the reason why some people seem bootloop-prone when flashing JB roms, if the changes have cut out access to important information about the filesystem, it may be triggering a really long error scan if their sdcard partition is large.
yes, backed up in ICS, and went to Jellybean.
doing a 'mount', I believe the line reads
/dev/fuse /storage/sdcard0 fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,realtime,user_id=1023,group_id=1023,default_permissions,allow_other 0 0
The files that have the shield icon have permissions:
rw-rw-r--
Yeah so everything that I can think of for you to check seems to be displaying as though normal. Although I don't know what aspect of these files root explorer is reading to mark them as protected and put the little shield on them.
You've tried these methods (rm, chmod) on individual files within the folder too, right? I guess this comes more from experience deleting protected files in windows, but I've found that sometimes a folder will deny deletion as long as it contains protected files, but it's relatively easy to give yourself permission to delete the individual files one by one, after which the folder goes down too. Possibly time consuming without a batch function, but easy.
My understanding of the fuse filesystem, by the way, is that it's just a virtual layer that allows the sdcard block to be treated differently than everything else on the phone, which is important for what happens when you plug it into a computer and the device is read. And I believe that the sdcard is supposed to be formatted as yaffs2 (everything else is ext4). Not sure how to check that directly, but it's possible that it has been changed to something else. But unless you can't delete -anything- on the sdcard, this seems unlikely.

yeah, I tried deleting files individually on the phone, and in windows. Wont let me do anything.
I guess the only sure fire method of clearing these files at the moment is to do a factory reset.
I can back up my stuff with titanium, so not that big a deal.
Your assistance has been much appreciated

Try deleting them directly from /data/media instead. If you're able to delete them there, reboot afterwards to ensure /storage/sdcard0, /sdcard, and /mnt/sdcard are updated properly.

Sorry to necro this thread almost 4 years later, but I had the exact same issue with deleting a folder on internal storage (Android Lollipop). Regardless if you're still here on XDA or not: thanks for this solution.
So.. Not really a I9250, but I guess my problem on i9100 is the same.
For some weird reason this just happened to WhatsApp directory.. But whatever.
After digging deeper and deeper in recovery, it seems like the folder wasn't own by media_rw group, but root
I just had to run
Code:
chown -R 1023:1023 <folder-path>
For some weird reason neither chown nor ls -l were correctly working when booted on normal system

@Cilraaz, I have no idea if you're still on XDA but after at least a week of intense searching I found your advice which solved my problem! Thank you.
My problem was on i9500 (still) running stock Lollipop. I've been preparing to install a custom recovery, and did a TWRP (2.8.7.0) nandroid backup. Problem was I then couldn't find the TWRP backup folder. It would only show in TWRP's file manager. Root Browser didn't show it with SU privileges, nor ES File Browser and connecting it to the PC didn't help either. It's only after looking in /data/media/0 that I could find the TWRP folder.
I have a strange problem and I haven't been able to find a resolution online. I'm hoping someone smarter than me can offer a solution.
I have an AT&T LG G3 (LG-D850). When I got it, it had stock KK. I rooted it with Bump and everything was cool. I stayed with stock.
Last night I upgraded it to Lollipop using the stock, bump'd LG-D850 20F Lollipop 5.0.1 ROM from autoprime. I didn't run into any problems with the install. The phone appeared to be working fine.
However, today I'm having trouble with the internal storage. When I try to download a file from the internet, it's failing. In the stock browser, it just fails. Downloads says "<Unknown> Failed." In Firefox, it tells me "Cannot download file because SD card is in use." In Chrome, it tells me "No SD card."
I'm also not able to move files to or from internal storage. I can cut, copy, and paste files from one folder on my external card to another on my external. However, I can't cut, copy, or paste files from one folder in my internal storage to another folder in my internal or external storage. I've tried both the stock file explorer as well as FX.
I tried the SDFix app from NewApp on the off chance that it would help (I read somewhere it would also work on L), but it had no effect.
I can still download apps from the Play store and install them. However, if I create a new file in QuickOffice, I can't save it ("Failed to save document.") I can navigate to root and copy/cut/paste files from the data/app folder to my external card and other folders. I think the issue is the system/sdcard folder. The owner/group on the folder is root and read, write, and exec are all checked.
Does anyone know what the permissions on that folder should be? Or if that's really my problem at all?
Thanks.

Googleing restorecon brought up a whole bunch of hits about this problem along with this solution. Too bad I couldn't find the answer unless I already knew the answer
this should be added to the autoprime thread or on the q&a for all variants.
Is there anyway to fix internal sdcard? i get bricket on a F460K and cant install .zip files in recovery philz, when i choose zip from/sdcard resolves "Couldn't open directory" and "ni files found" but i can put files in "sdcard" via adb =/, anyone know a way to fix it?. thanks!.

@P760x when you type adb devices, what do you get? If it doesn't list any devices you probably need to reinstall the phone drivers on your computer. If it does list your phone, then there's something else wrong.

For some reason,when i connect my phone into mtp (Files transfer to pc) mode my pc can't find any items in phone,so does extraction applications in my phone,it's just all empty, even though i have gApps,custom kdz.
I tried with terminal emulator (android version) - it says permission denied,so i think that requires root? I would get instantly but i can't transfer or download anything to my phone...?

@P760x I noticed that I can't connect my phone in MTP mode unless developer options are on and USB debugging is on. I didn't have that problem on KK, only Lollipop.
If adb devices still doesn't list your phone after that, manually download and reinstall the phone drivers from LG. I've had multiple occasions when Windows eats those drivers, so that's the first place to start.
Hopefully that helps.
ok i have searched this issue but what i found wasnt specifically for this devices and none of the similar topiocs solutions work for me. so here is my issue..
First of all i have Sprint HTC 10, htcdev unlocked, sunshine s-off, latest twrp, running viper10 1.2.0, no other mods currently & running great from the start.
the issueis.. with root explorer, when i copy/cut/move any type file from the internal storage and try to paste/move file to my external sdcard it give me a SD write Persmission (see attached picture) its says after pressing OK a dialog will be displayed and to navigate to sd card but afteri hit ok root explorer closes and i get "unfortuantely, root explorer has stopped" keeps happening and come think of it similar happens with fx explorer an ES explorer as well. i gave permission during twrp and in venom tweaks i have "mount system r/w" option turned on, root explorer is r/w as well. i can move files from sd to internal storage without an issue. can anyone help me solve this. thanks in advance
I am running the latest stock Oxygen OS version (11.2.10.10.LE15AA), rooted with Magisk. Somehow the internal /sdcard directory got unmounted and now I cannot save anything to the user storage because it doesn't exist. I could not even take screenshots because it saves by default to /sdcard/DCIM/Screenshots which doesn't exist now, so I apologize for having to take photos of a screen (the first is from terminal, the other 2 are from ES File Explorer). However, when I run "ls -la /" as superuser in a terminal window it lists sdcard. Does anyone know how to fix this? How do I re-mount /sdcard and get it recognized again?

Try to reboot to recovery and factory reset
Fixed the /sdcard unmounted error!
What finally ended up working was flashing the Oxygen OS zip in TWRP and rebooting without root. I noticed my internal storage was restored along with all the files in it — but then when I rebooted to bootloader to re-root the device with a Magisk-patched boot.img (booting into Android once as temp root with "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img", then running the Magisk app and selecting "direct install" to patch boot.img for permanent root) the /sdcard unmounted error came back! So I disabled all the newer Magisk mods I had installed, rebooted, and I have /sdcard again along with root. Yay! Factory reset was going to be my next attempt if that didn't work though.
