Hello,
To make a long story short
Probably one of my installed apps is causing this problem I have (app2sd)
A few days ago I always got this "force close" msg for ALL of my apps.
I decided to factory reset - although it worked ALL the apps folders were not deleted from internal memory
BUT the apps are not there realy, just the folders.
I did a hard reset, the same.
all the info on the INTERNAL MEMORY comes back after any type of reboot.
Tried to FLASH and reinstall the ORIGINAL STOCK. -- NOTHING it doesn't work, I mean the new installation is but the apps' folders are STUCK on the internal memory of the phone.
Any help?
How can I really format the internal memory? flash it totally? I can't even re install the apps again from market, it doesn't let me.
help?!

If you are currently on Gingerbread 2.3.6, go into menu> settings > storage and format your SD card and settings privacy> to do a factory reset and erase all than try power down and boot into 2e recovery to do a wipe data and wipe cache and reboot phone to download mode and re-flash the ROM again and back to recovery again to wipe data and cache
Hi,
A nephew asked me if I can fix his phone. So I have no idea what he did to get this.
But the problem is that all app's crash when booted (including android system app's). So it isn't possible to use the phone.
What I tried to fix:
-Wipe data/cache/dalvik -> crashing install guide + crashing app's
-Flash CWM -> succeeded
-Flash Cyanogenmod:
.. from internal sd: "BAD zip" error
.. from external sd: "No files" when choosing folder "external_sd"
Also a weird problem is that when i mount the internal sd from CWM, I can access the files from my computer.
If i add files, delete files, format the disk. The internal sd is back to its original state after rebooting the phone.
Could this be a hardware defect? Any idea's what I can try?
Thank you in advance.
same here...im in gingerbread 2.3.6 JW4.
apps are crashing and cant use the internal sd card..no errors display when i do a full factory format but it restores in the same state as before.
tnx in advance!!!!!
I believe I may have bricked my Fire HD 7". I decided to flash a new ROM. Something I've done many many times. However, this time I decided to wipe the SD card because I wanted to get rid of all the app folders, my documents, music, etc. and start from a clean state. The problem is that it occurred to me half a second after the wipe that the ROM zip as well as the backup were on the internal SD.
So now I'm in TWRP trying to mount the device, but Windows (8.1) will not recognize the internal storage and mount it as a drive. I have the latest drivers installed but nothing...
It seems I have no way of getting a new ROM onto the internal SD card so that I can flash as normal. Help?

Use a Linux distro live CD to side load the ROM.
Sent from my device running CyanogenMod 11

Tried that under Ubuntu. I get an error message that the volume (Kindle) can't be mounted.
Figured out the solution. Neither Windows nor Linux would mount the device, so that I could transfer the ROM to internal storage the easy way. What worked was using ADB sideload. Now I'm relieved! For anyone else having this issue or a similar issue because they had a brain fart and wiped the internal storage AFTER wiping the ROM -- this is the solution to the problem. Use ADB sideload in TWRP.
So what are the steps

I'm in the exact same situation you were in (pre-brain fart) - I want to get a "fresh start" with my kindle. What are the steps I should take? I see in TWRP that I can wipe Dalvik, Data, Internal Storage, Cache and System.
I'm guessing I should wipe System, Cache, Dalvik, Flash the ROM, flash gapps, then wipe data/internal storage -- does this sound right?
Thanks

Thanks - can you explain though? OP wanted to get rid of all of the music/documents/etc... Isn't the internal storage where these are? If not, what is stored here?
You can wipe internal if you want to, but be sure you can adb push your rom. I don't like to do this b/c it leaves you no backup plan. Besides, "fresh start" is mostly placebo imo.
Hi,
I have Samsung Galaxy S3 I9305 phone. It had a logo stuck issue. Then I rooted the phone and flash CWM recovery using ODIN3.
Then I made the CWM backup to the SD card. Then I wipe the dalvik cache and wipe data/factory reset. Since still phone is not booted I misunderstood the steps and mistakenly did the CWM format /system and format /data. then I did nothing. Now the phone is not booting. It only goes to model no display screen. I read that even when formatting data, It only deletes the table of contents(pointers) and not the actual data. Now please tell me that, were all photos in internal memory lost? Can I recover photos in internal memory using recovery utility?.
Wiping system means NO OS. Just flash a new ROM and you'll be fine. Also this dosen't need to be a Q&A Thread, it's better if it is just a Normal Thread.
Thanks for the quick reply. Actually my question was even though I formatted the system and data, Can I restore data in the internal memory?. I need only internal memory photos. I have read that I even formatted the data, table of contents is deleted and data is still available.
If its still there, flash the exact same ROM you flashed before the accident then if its still not there then use DiskDigger from GPlay. If DiskDigger can't find it then it can't be recovered ever again
Quick question Jeri. I have backup the ROM using CWM recovery AFTER the accident to external SD card. Back up has the following files:
boot.img
recovery.img
system.ext4.tar
system.ext4.tar.a
system.ext4.tar.b
It was the stock ROM(I mean original OS, which phone had when I bought the phone).
So please tell me that what to do next? sorry about my lack of knowledge of this area.
is any body there to help me on this matter? only experts can ask questions on this site?
I flashed the ROM using ODIN. I used the I9305XXUFNL1_I9305H3GFNL1_I9305XXUFOA1_HOME.tar.md5 file for flashing. But I'm not sure it is correct. But still my phone is not booting, and stopping at logo screen. What do I do next?
Hello everybody,
I am in desperate need for help.
Received my OP3T yesterday and followed the instructions to flash Sultan's CM13 ROM, unlocking bootloader, running "fastboot OEM unlock", deleting data and system partitions, attempting to flash TWRP and even using the SuperSu root afterwards.
I now have an issue where the internal memory of the phone does not show up on PC. It does not show when I am running CM13, and does not show when I'm in the TWRP recovery menu.
- Using the mount feature in TWRP does not work.
- All my file systems are currently set to ext4.
- USB debugging is on, off course.
- Tried accessing internal memory on a different PC, and still doesn't show.
I've tried completely deleting all the partitions, re-flashed TWRP and re-flashed CM13. Also tried re-flashing the original recovery and the original OxygenOS rom.
As a result, I can only access the TWRP recovery now. I have no way to copy the CM13 zip file or any other file to the internal memory.
Anyone know what's going on?
to see internal storage in TWRP you need to enter the password you definied as android login.
to see internal storage on pc go to "Settings/developer options/usb configuration and use again "file transfer" (i hope this is the english word for "dateiübertragung")
