Hello. Yesterday my phone would not open so I tried to start it in recovery mode and try to factory reset. But it didn't let me to do a factory reset and said unable to mount /data and /cache and storage etc. etc.. So I looked at the install tab and saw that internal storage 0mb. Then after a few restarts I was able to wipe data thinking it would help but nothing happened. Can you help? SOrry for bad english.
I had same problem goto recovery Wipe and chose format data
then reboot back to recovery hola that's it
Caution : you will lose all your data by data I mean entire internal storage will be wiped out

I am no expert... And I use TWRP (you can get by downloading goo manager from the market)
I did a system wipe...
Which deletes all contents from your SD including previous back-ups
(so back up everything to a harddrive 1st)
The I used wugfresh to put the stock software back on
Then I flashed my desired ROM (Mmuzzy)

System wipe only wipes the /system partition and doesn't touch the sdcard, for future reference. If your sdcard gets wiped to something must be wrong.
Hi, my question is, what of way do you format device to flash a ROM. In picture A there is swipe to factory reset and in picture B you have to type yes to start. While flashing a ROM which option do you choose? Factory reset or Format data. I forgot which one I used to format data.
With TWRP if you wipe "factory reset" clears, / data, cache / and / dalvik but in / data does not erase / data / media / or your internal storage.
But is you wipe /data from Advance wipe, it will delete everything in data partition including internal storage.
:good:
Format Data now what
I used TWRP to "format data" on my phone and then loaded CyanogenMod from an external sd card, but it is stuck in the load screen. Do I have to use a different ROM after a "format data"?

reflash the rom
Insert SDcard into PC via an adapter and try opening it. Windows can repair errors on the card, if it finds any. Data recovery not guaranteed though.

Do this remove sd card from your mobile and connect it on pc through adapter and check its readable if readable copy all file to your pc and format your sd card and reconnect it to your mobile and check its now readable or not.
I might do something stupid playing with TWRP and wiping data to f2fs even if after i flash my rom its ext4 again...but now i have a problem with storage...it shows a folder without knowing whats inside called "System Data" i wipe everything except sdcard now i reflash my rom from 20GB its now 8.25GB i can't take a screenshot its sais its corrupted...any help??do i need to wipe my internal storage too??what happent?
Why i dont have almost nothig of free space on my internal memory? i installed custom rom and wiped everything with twrp recovery but i still dont have any space left.. how to resolve this?
Try Wipe data, System, cache, dalvik, and reinstall phone
Edit: Oh sorry you already done this, i don't know
Boot into twrp...go to wipe then fix or change filesystem of internal storage..check what format internal storage is in..if it is in vfat change it to ext4..! this should solve your problem..
PS :VERY IMPORTANT: you will lose all data on internal storage! i am not responsible for loss of data or bricked phone !
I was facing the same problem . By Factory Data Reset from the settings of Redmi 1s i succeeded in reclaiming 2.3 GB of internal storage.. In the process of reset all personal data, apps and even google apps are gone .. but i restored from the backup i have created before hand
