My S9 now shows internal storage as 32GB. Cleared cache, reflashed the latest firmware for my exact model and still only 32GB. Does anyone have a solution for me before factory reset? SM-G960W
Probably going to have to use the "Repartition" option in ODIN settings to fix the storage capacity problem
It will wipe the phone

Curses. Backups don't backup everything. Is there a less radical solution?

Odin won't work. It says it can't open the specified file Line 1892 and then it gets stuck on Setup Connection forever.

Try a different USB port, or USB lead, and even a different PC if that doesn't work
I'm not sure if there is a less radical solution, probably not for something like this, my gf's Sony Xperia has done the exact same thing and she is delaying the fact we need to do the same thing to that

Different port didn't do it. I don't have other USB-C cables so I can't try that. I'll try another PC.

I just got my Gs3 Replacement and for some reason i cant get my pc to recognize the phone so i can transfer files. Do the drivers from my last Gs3 have anything to do with this?

Same Issue here, someone said to go back to stock, and then reflash everything. Let me know if you found a better solution.

Finally got it to work by just doing a factory reset. I was stock none rooted. But trying to root at the time.

This happened to me after I switched Roms, but I just did a factory reset and re flashed the ROM and it seemed to do the trick.
Gremlins I guess, always best to do a data wipe and factory reset.
You can use a regular SD card reader. JS

Yeah, but it is very important to have the ability to have your phone connect to your PC, this makes things much easier and quicker as well.
Also you can't access the internal memory of your phone, this solution just solves half of the battle.
Hello All,
My t989 keeps loosing connection when attached to any pc while copying files to the external sd card. Also cannot install roms, restore roms, or install any large files from that sd card. The card is a 64 gig card, but this behavior also occurs with the 32 gig card. This problem start happening apprx. 2 weeks ago. I've even reformatted both cards but the problem remains.
Any ideas folks?
My T989 is rooted, and I run PACMan rom and CM10.1.
Thank you everyone.

If you mount USB in recovery does it do the same thing? If so, you probably have a faulty USB port.

Well, I just tried it while in recovery, and file transfer worked just fine.

I'm beginning to think that my ROM has become corrupted/unstable and that may be the cause. I'll completely wipe and re-flash the sometime this week and see if that does the trick!
Hi, I just received my P6 and rooted it using eRoot. I have tried upgrading to B125 (running B109 out the box) by downloading the B125 file, passing it to dload on SD and performing a local upgrade, once the device boots to perform this it immediately says FAIL, and if i select the file manually it says "E:\signature verification failed" any ideas on how to solve this? Am I meant to update to something else inbetween before jumping to B125? (I've downloaded the file twice just to make sure it isn't corrupted or anything). I am a complete noob with this device, used to doing this sort of thing through CWM on my Nexus 7.
I have looked around this forum and seen various answers involving using TWRP first which if I could avoid I'd like to avoid as my aim is to load stock firmware without any of the bloatware that comes with my service provider, I'll leave the CFW stuff like AOSP for my tablet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It was sitting on 89% charge when I initiated the procedure...
Any idea if using CWMR from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2417919 would be any better? It keeps stock recovery, just figured another option wouldn't hurt?

Try to do a MD5 sum check. Probably your download or copying to SD card is corrupted.
Redownload the B125, but worse comes worse, try B118 or B122.

Re-downloaded it and used a proper zip program to unzip the file and it worked!!! So happy
Quick question what would you guys recommend I do to get rid of the service provider bloatware that came with my phone because with the upgrade all that stuff still stayed on my device? I tried uninstalling it normally and it just says system application cannot uninstall...
Battery life is a HUGE improvement. Sitting on 40% after 15 hours of abuse. Thanks again guys!

That's great to hear!
BTW to get rid of system apps you do not want, install this. Your phone must be rooted in order for this to work.

Tho becareful, don't get rid of vital apps.
If you haven't rooted your phone, head here.

Good luck!
So a friend of mine updated his G3 to lollipop and he's facing two main issues:
Settings isn't opening at all. It FC's right when you open it
Messages app also force closes many times
the most annoying problem: Alarm if set, phone only vibrates no matter even if sound is set to full.
And force closes of apps frequently.
Can you borrow his phone and reflash everything with a fresh download from one of the XDA threads? Perhaps it was a bad flash?

He didn't flash, he updated OTA and I think I can, he's pretty busy person though.
Was looking for a more easy solution.
Yeah well it still has some degree of flashing I think. Just try a factory reset to stay on the safe side. Then alternately try reflashing. A factory reset shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes.

Just take out the SD card. I dont think it would. I haven't had this phone for long but I dont see why it would do that. It hasn't for any of my other phones.

Hey ,
the problem is caused after i upgraded from lollipop v21a(TWN) to marshmallow hongkong using LGUP , well now i have a phone with no wifi or signal or any kind of network and what is even worse is that I can't connect it to computer .. the computer wont recognize it no matter what i do , i tried changing cables , reinstalling the drivers , and trying in download mode ... well so far none helped.
anyone familiar with this problem ? is there a solution or i just destroyed my phone beyond repair :/ ? oh and if it matters the phone does charge when connected to computer
any help would be appreciated , thanks in advance.
***short version i flashed a d858 rom in to a d855 phone and now the pc cant recognize the phone even in download mode , any idea what shall i do ? ***
any idea any one please ? :crying:
It's odd that it won't even charge from the PC. Did you try charging it from just a simple wall charger to see if it would work? Or try a different PC?

DOES! D'oh.
Well, first thing I'd check is the USB configuration. Go to settings, developer options, Select USB Configuration. See if for some reason it's stuck on Charging Only. Unfortunately, I don't think that will help, but might as well try.
Other than that, maybe you have an microSD Card lying around that you could load with a new ROM and associated bootstack and reload the ROM from there?

i will try that , but is it possible to do that without root ? I'm not very positive that it would read the sd card though but it is worth a shot .. but how exactly to do that
how can i flash a rom without a twrp or root ?
(if there is way to do so) can you tell me which bootstack i need to flash for kitkat (4.4.2) and which to lolipop 5.0 , or a link to download would be even better since i can't seem to find them
