[Q] CM 10 No External storage - LG Optimus 2x

After finally getting rid of stock LG Froyo, I'm running the lastest CM 10
Everythings fine except most apps cannot detect external SD
Using File manager I've found in root /sdcard/ and /storage which contains /sdcard0(I assume internal) and /sdcard1(my external)
My gallery and camera app when started will say No External Storage then close.
I've tried ICS Binder- Fails after reboot when used
Lots of apps cant detect the external SD
Does anyone have similar problem?
is there a fix??
Thanks!

Got almost the same problem earlier today (not with CM though).
A restart solved that problem (for now). Have you tried that?

i tried it (restart) but its not working
Same error (Please Insert SD Card before using the camera.)
please help me friends .
Has there been any kind of notification telling you that your SD is corrupt?
Can you see your SD card in a file manager?
Do you even have an SD card? CM does the internal storage differently.

I'm surprised that Cyanogenmod install can be done without a physical external SD card.
It's mandatory to have an external SDcard to use Cynogenmod, even if your internal SDcard is empty.
There are complicated things to do as mentionned above to switch internal and external mounting points for Cyanogen but I can guess this can be tricky for someone not used to those things....
So:
- buy a sdcard, even a small one, internal sdcard still can be used for multimedia files and so on, and is mounted as /mnt/emmc (grab Astro File manager for exemple to see it) and is concerned by media scanning.
- flash back stock firmware (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127849) if you didn't made a Nandroid backup before flashing CMod.
- flash another optimized Froyo rom (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127849 there are some)
- Didn't try Paul Modaco's Gr2, based on official Lg leak 2.3.4, perhaps its mouting points are more conventionnal; but Gr1 pre-baked didn't went good for me as there were no SIM card detection (probably missing some APN related files or so...) so I jumped to CyanogenMod Nightly.
I just bought an O2x with CM7 RC1 already installed.The camera doesn't work (Please insert an SD card before using the camera) and my computer doesn't find the phone when i connect the USB cable(it says it's charging but nothing happens on the phone or the PC). I tried installing LG Pc Suite and the official software on the LG site(mobile updater) and the USB driver seems to be installed but nothing happens when i connect the phone.
What should i do? Should i flash a newer CM7 nightly or a stock firmware? (i have literally no idea how to do that, i'm going to have to read some tutorials).Can i do that if i can't connect the phone via the USB cable? Is there another way?
Yeah flash a newer version, RC1 is quite dated. In the new nightlies you can make internal storage replace the SD card.
You can update the drivers with the LG Mobile Support Tool, PC Suite isn't compatible with CM7.
I installed LG Mobile Support Tool, still nothing. The battery is "Charging" but nothing else happens on the phone/pc. Can i flash a newer version if i can't use the usb to connect to the phone?
Edit: The phone has ROM Manager 4.3.2.3 installed and when i start it: "The SD Card needs to be mounted to use ROM Manager."
I suspect you don't have an SD card, only internal storage. You can't use ROM Manager with that on RC1.
Try the drivers here: http://android.modaco.com/topic/335...elease-103521-20110725/page__view__getnewpost
No, i don't have external SD card. The phone already had CM7 when i bought it. So i just have to download those 3 files and follow the tutorial?
I also found this tutorial and it has that AP BIN thing in plus. Which one to follow? I would be happy to install stock froyo if everything works on it.
Which one to follow depends on what you want for your phone. Personally I'd use CM7.
Ok , i'm gonna go with CM7. If i follow that tutorial(the one you posted) what exactly i'm gonna have on my phone? What does it do? Don't i have to install a newer CM7 nightly build?
This tutorial doesn't say what to put in the AP Bin box, i just leave it blank?
If you go with CM7 then you have to install via recovery, not Smartflash, completely different process.
Download the newest version from here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=p990
Save to your phones internal SD card
Update recovery (unless already on 4.0.0.9 or higher)
Reboot to recovery (can use ROM Manager for that)
Install zip from SD card
Choose zip
Select the CM zip and pick yes
Reboot
In the CyanognenMod settings, in the top option (i foget what it is now) tick 'use internal storage'
Reboot again and you're away
"Save to your phones internal SD card" How am i gonna do that? I can't use usb to connect the phone.
Oh, have you not sorted that yet? Bugger.
Try running mount -t auto /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /sdcard from the terminal, with any luck this will make your internal SD /sdcard and you should be able to download CM via the phone. You can also use ROM Manager to install it then as well.

[Q] Internal Storage problem

Hey everyone! I've been googling and searching on for this problem for a few days, but I didn't find any solutions for it. So, here goes, I guess.
I own a LG Optimus 2X, currently on CM10 nightly. It worked like a charm, until I decided to try the official LG 4.0 "update". It's horrible in many ways, so I decided to go back to CM10. I am aware that CM10 uses EXT3 and LG's official rom uses EXT4, so I was careful about all that, but it seems as if I wasn't careful enough.
I flashed back the original Gingerbread ROM with a .KDZ file and then via CWM flashed CM10, but I couldn't access my internal SD card (/sdcard), not even via CWM! The camera says that there is "no external storage available" even though there is, ES file explorer says that the "SD card is empty, unmounted or not present.", and other programs such as torrent clients also bug out. I also can't load any music because of that problem. Plus, in CWM, it says "Error, can't mount /sdcard" nor can I format it sadly.
Is that because I didn't format it correctly back from EXT4 to EXT3 or something? I am really having a hard time here. And it would be nice if someone had a solution for this! Thank you all in advance!
I think you need to format sdcard.

Heh, I think I got that one too. But the question is how? I can't even mount it in the ROM and ClockworkMod Recovery can't mount it either. Is there a way to do this over a flashable rom or via PC (like ADB)?
Use the one in all toolkit @ android development to flash a new CM.
It's a common bug for flashing back to CM from LG ICS.
Follow the tutorial and use the CM addon and choose for change bootloader even if you are already on old one.

strange SD card behavioure with CM 10.1 RC1

I noticed a strange problem after installing CM 10.1 RC1
many files from the internal storage are gone, for example most files from clockworkmod directory, some are there but the most are not, when rebooting to CWM thay are there, also when restoring original ROM they are also there.
whats going on?
i met this bug as well if you use your PC to manage your files.
first, some files shown in SD card are actually belong to internal storage
if you try to create file, it may shown in other part later.
so just use root explorer as base standard

I used root explorer and im stock it always worked fine but in cm 10.1 rc1 same problem as with the PC

I will look at the zip to see if it needs to be modded and get back to you.
Edit: You were right, there was an assert error in the zip. Fixed in rev6 now.

Hi,
Ok that installed ok but still having issues: on boot all apps and processes crash (stop responding) when unlocking the nook if I clear cache in cwm it boots fine and I can see that the swap has occurred internal still shows 5gb but is actually my 32gb sd card. However I can't side load any apps I get an app not installed message even though unknown sources is ticked also as soon as I reboot the nook its back to square one and all the processes and apps crash.
I never saw any instructions for installing this i simply flashed from cwm recovery. Is there a set install order or process for this maybe I'm doing something wrong? I.e. does it need cm 10.2>sd swap>gapps all on initial flash? The only thing I can think is I'm installing the sd swap after I have installed a few apps

Remember this is a kludge, so everything does not work perfectly. I have found that sideloading apps from one of the SDs (I can't remember which) fails. Just copy the apk to the other one and try. And the setting storage shows wrong.
But I have not had apps and processes crash. If you have apps that were using internal for media storage, you may have to move their media files from internal to external. Like you say, you may want to start fresh with CM10.2, gapps and swap before you install any apps.

Hi,
ok I cant seem to get this working. I have a similar mod on my S3 which works perfectly. I have done the following:
1) Tried it WIth 10.1 RC3. Boot to recovery wiped data and cache flashed 10.1 RC2 > GAPPS > SDSWAP on boot the swap hasn't happened if I then reboot and flash the swap again and go into storage the calculating space hangs at calculating and no apps will open when you click on them.
2) as above but tried flashing 10.1 RC2 > SDSWAP >GAPPS exactly the same results as above.
So it doesn't seem to work with 10.1 or 10.2?
EDIT: This is driving me insane lol
Ok if I flash the cm 10.1 and SDSWAP then look at es file explorer the swap has worked and apps open ok SDCARD0 shows 29GB and SDCARD1 5GB but I have the same issue as with 10.2 if I try and install an .apk from SDCARD0 it opens and displays the app permissions as normal then as soon as you click install you get an app not installed message ? IF I copy the .apk to SDCARD1 (the internal) I get a problem parsing package error. So the swap works but I cant install any .apk's

I told you that settings/storage does not work. Why try it again and be surprised that it does not work?
And I just tested it again on the HD and install fails if you try from the real external SD. But it works from the internal SD. And I get no app crashes.
This is on the 7/08 CM10.1 from verygreen. I will now try on CM version.
Edit: I just updated to CM10.1 RC2 and it works the same.

Ok Thanks for checking that's strange as it definately doesn't work for me. I will just have to use the SD Card Install instead as I only have an 8gb nook and its not enough space.

Does the camera works man,i think your sd card will work gradually it's just a nightly version give some time to improve.
camera is working at my first look
Exactly the same problem here. Everything works well except for the following features:
- SDCARD (32 GB here) does not show
- Privacy Guard freezes and it shows the status icon even if the app that uses it has been closed
No other bugs so far. Everything works with iodak v9 kernel.
