My phone was getting stuck on LG logo, which I fixed by rooting the phone using SuperOneClick and installed clockworkmod, but now I am having problem with mounting SD Card when I go to the cwm recovery.
I can download everything, take pictures and save them. Its just that the cwm cannot mount the sd card.
Just worried about bricking the device since its my gf's phone and because of the past issue, I don't feel like trying anything random. If anybody has tried something and succeeded, please leave your comments below and help me out. It'll be really appreciated!!
Did you try formatting the SD via adb? That should solve it

No. I haven't tried that yet!
Can you please provide me codes specifically for mounting/unmounting via adb?
try to change cwm version..

Hi, all.
I have some problem on my previous sdcard (so sad :crying and it's broken.
Now i have a new sdcard (yeah...) and another problem appears!
I formatted my sdcard and it said that the sdcard formatted successfully, but when i mount my sdcard into computer, the existing files still there.
Whether i add some files into sdcard (for example: i just copied JB Mini ROM into /sdcard/John) and i rebooted my phone into recovery mode.
When i enter the recovery menu and want to install the ROM's zip, the file cannot be found. Then i copied JBMini's ZIP file once again into my sdcard once again. I mount my sdcard into my computer with "Mount USB Storage" in recovery. When i'm trying to install it, it says (bad) errors. Then i reboot my phone again and the files (JBMini ROM) dissapeared!
Can somebody help me?
If the recovery says "bad file" then that means that the zip is corrupted..
Retry downloading it/retransferring it to the sd card..

Hmmm...What ROM are you using? If you're using a custom one. Try getting back to stock Eclair 2.1 and check if it does the same problem. If so contact the shop where you bought the SD Card.
Man ...
You have a hard luck with SD cards!
see boot animation without rebooting

Haha... I don't know anything.
Maybe i should throw this microSD from the uppest floor of high building, then go to the downstairs by stairs and get it back again.
It's not about corrupted ROM files or somewhat, but again, this is SD Card problem.
My sdcard have two partitions, FAT32 and ext4.
I had tried to format it from recovery, but it failed.
I had tried to format it from my mom's Blackberry (which is good in fixing corrupted sdcard, but failed with my first sdcard) and it couldn't finish the formatting process.
I had tried to open my sdcard on my computer and i format it and it said something like this : "Windows couldn't finish the format process" (My Windows 8 using Indonesia language)
I had tried to delete all partition from MiniTool Partition, but when MiniTool refreshed the devices list, that two partitions (FAT32 and EXT4) still exist.
What should i do now? I'm really confused with sdcard problems, what they (sdcard) wants?
Format the ext4 partition. Alfs kernel has that option in it's recovery. Then try again.
Note : Not responsible if your SD broke after this.

Looks to me like you've touched the write-protect switch on the sdcard.
Remove it and sllide the switch back again..
Try for a low level format

try using a sd card reader and then delete the parrition and recreate it and the files should be deleted
Well, I can say that I spent hours on hours trying to search for a solution with no luck,
The internal sd card of my Galaxy S GT-I9000 is corrupt.
I get E: format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 when im trying to format without sdcard inserted.
What I have managed to get after doing everything I can from my own knowlage and from the internet:
100% Working phone with ICS 4.0.3 only with 2 partitioned sd card(reiserfs and fat)
did everything in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31017954
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdMhYYdMB08
also flashed multi-csc firmware with pit(JVU/JVZ) after format everything(except /boot) through CWM with no luck.
main goal:
100% Working phone WITHOUT SD CARD
I thought maybe someone could tell me if this could be solved within software itself or only FLASH IC replacement?
got linux and windows systems so guides with commands involved wont be a problem.
THANK YOU!

I need it working without sd card inserted if someone could help me
goto "settings" then "storage" then scroll down to bottom there's option to unmount and erase internal sdcard.
Hi guys!
Here's my situation:
- P990, tonyp's PA 2.6 v.13, old bootloader, Kowalski kernel exp. version 12x
- Phone started boot looping (no obvious cause)
- Tried deleting cache. Didn't help.
- Tried flashing the same ROM from external SD. Didn't help.
- Tried restoring working backup (boot and system only, not complete restore) from CWM. Didn't help.
So then I guess I have to do a complete factory reset, but that means I'll lose everything on my internal SD card, right? I want to make a copy first so that I can keep my files. My nandroid backups are only 2.x GB, so I guess they don't include everything on the internal SD card.
I tried to connect the phone to my laptop, but nothing happened, so I deleted/reinstalled drivers from the LG website. That didn't work, but then I found this post which got me a little further. It said the installation was successful, but when I was in CWM, the disks (int. and ext. SD) wasn't being recognized. When I rebooted recovery (from CWM) or just rebooted the device, the computer recognized the discs and started installing four drivers, but as the phone either gets into CWM or just boot loops, it seems like Windows isn't able to finalize the installation of the drivers. This results in the SD cards not being functional in Windows. I can't even see disk labels or storage used/available.
Does someone have an idea of how I might be able to access the internal SD from Windows? Either by fixing the driver issue, or some other method?
I guess I have to fix this USB issue to be able to try to use adb pull to get all the stuff off the internal memory as well, right? Or is the connection between phone and computer not required to be "complete" to be able to do that? I do not remember for sure, but I believe I had turned on USB debugging before all this mess started. However, I have never used adb before.
I'm massively thankful for any help!

I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.3.1.
Yes, I tried wiping dalvik cache as well, but that didn't fix it either.
Are there some other ways of getting out of the bootloop? I don't mind flashing stock rom or whatever else, as long as I can recover my internal SD.

Download AIO-toolkit from the developement forum. Install itt, and install nvflash drivers with it.
At the main screen select option 2, and then select option 2 again. Follow teh instructions on the screen, and select TWRP 2.5.0.0 to be installed, or cwm 5.0.2.8, both have working mass storage.
(6.0.3.1 has broken massstorage and adb interface. I think you installed cwm 6.0.3.1 through rom manager, if it that true you are on old bootloader.)

Aha, that explains it!
I installed CWM 5.0.2.8 and I got a little further than before. When I mount USB storage in CWM, my external SD card shows up on my computer, but not my internal SD card. What can be the reason for this? Could the card be corrupted, or are there other ways of getting the internal SD to appear?
I tried mounting everything I could mount from the Mounts and storage menu in CWM, but the external SD was still the only thing that showed up on my laptop.
Thank you so much for helping with this!

Do a factory reset with a working cwm. You will lose all your installed apps and their data, but it will keep data on internal sdcard. After the factory reset you can boot up into andorid

YES! I thought factory reset would delete the internal SD, so I didn't even consider that, but it worked like a charm! Thank you so much for caring and helping! You just made my week! :highfive:

INTERNAL /SDCARD please read!
Just reflash from KDZ if you can't access the /sdcard folder from recovery. I've never heard of this happening on our device, so I wouldn't take the risk of playing with it if I were you.

u can format it in recovery mode. at least in team win recovery there is a choise to format data. after format , reboot in recovery and the sdcard is mounted. if it doesnt mount , u can do it manually again in recovery. this is not even a problem. its like in linux u mount the /home directory. the disk is always there u just have to let the system "know" that this part is used as "home". same here. u let the phone know that this here is the sdcard. so go ahead and format it ,reboot. if not fixed then mount it manually.
