HELP
On my Diamond the Internal storage has gone a bit wrong, it all started when i pluged it in my pc to charge it up, after i took it out them later on i went to do sumthing on it and the internal storage folder has changed it name to "Internal Storage 2" but the original "internal storage" folder is still there and i am confused about it
please help
I suppose you connected your Diamond to the PC as an external harddrive and not via ActiveSync. By doing so, the internal storage is no longer visible to the OS as long as it´s conncted to the PC.
I would imagine that during that connection some program running on your Diamond (e.g. Messaging etc.) was trying to access the internal storage, couldn´t find it and created a new folder Internal Storage 2.
Just check what kind of files you have in your Internal Storage2 - might shed some light on the mystery.....

in the internal storage folder there is only theprogram files folder and in that there is RSS Hub folder, in the Internal storage2 folder there is My documents, you tube and a MP3 folder also the internal storage2 folder has the picture of a mem card on the icon like the orignal storage folder used to be like.
And there seems to be the culprit: RSS Hub was doing an update while connected to the PC in harddrive mode > wants to store the update data on "Internal Storage", doesn´t find it so recreates it. After disconnecting from your PC the original "Internal Storage" becomes visible again, but is renamed in "Internal Storage 2" to avoid dublicates......had this happen a few times on previous devices, where the SD card could temporarily not be recognized.
Try to delete "Internal Storage", then rename "Internal Storage 2" back to "Internal Storage" and you should be back in business with all you program links etc. working again!

I had the same thing happen with "Internal Storage2" showing up. It was caused, in my case, by the phone being connected to the computer in Disk Drive mode and then the phone received something that it wanted to automatically store in the Internal Storage area which was unavailable (in my case it was picture mail). Since there wasn't an Internal Storage area available it created one called "Internal Storage". When the Disk Drive mode phone was released and disconnected it couldn't use "Internal Storage" any more and thus it renamed it to "Internal Storage2"
I didn't think of going into Disk Drive mode again until after I had already tried a soft reset. I removed the Internal Storage folder that had been placed in main memory and then did a soft reset. The Internal Storage without the "2" has come back and is the 4gb storage area.
I can't remove the internal storage folder because it has the internet explorer files, and they are in use. I fix it renaming the internal storage folder to another one (in mi cause almacenamiento interno2 to almacenamiento internozzz because my diamond is in spanish) and after a soft reset the internal storage was again in his correct name.
Really need help after doing something very stupid. I by acident formated the internal storage on my diamond when it was connected to my computer an now the diamond do not find the internal storage. It is the same after I have done a hard reset. In system/memory its says that the memory card i not installed!
I´ts ok now. FIXED
If possible, can you post how you fixed the problem? In case people google for the same problem, and find your post.
Cheers
When you connect your phone to pc as disk drive, internal storage is hidden until it’s unplugged.
When I formated the disk it was in FAT so the phone did not find it but when i formated the disk again but in NTFS it worked.
Hi,
I accidentally formated the internal storage of my brother´s diamond while hard-reseting it (I help him flashing ROMs and didn´t know the option to format the internal as well..)
Is there a way to restore the lost data on the memory ? Does PC Inspector reconize the Diamond´s internal storage ?
thx in advance for a reply

Try these http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk and http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec.
The reason I recommend this, is because I have successfully recovered images from a formatted camera SD Card, and the Diamond 4GB Storage acts like a USB Flashdrive.
thanks, but it didn´t work. Though I acted as described in the Wiki I got nothing...
My HTC touch diamond's internal storage name was changed to internal storage2, due to that programs installed on internal memory stopped working. Please tell me how can i change the name from "Internal Storage2" to "Internal Storage".
Thanks in advance!
Same problem here. First it changed to "internal storage2", after that i reinstalled the most needed apps into this storage. Now the internal storage renamed itself again to "internal storage3" ???
Don't panic
It happens , happened to me a couple of times , it has smth to do with the way it sees the internal storage while connected to a PC . you should not reinstall all your apps ,but rename the Internal Storage from your PC or from your phone as i remember and a softreset should do the trick .
let me know if it works as i may have forgotten a step .
