I have a Samsung Captivate and I accidentally deleted the sd (at least that is what i think it was called) folder. How do I get it back? If I just create a new folder that says 'sd' will it still save things onto my internal sd card?
my /sd/ folder is empty at least looking at it from the OI file manager on the phone
I think mine was as well but I want to put music on my phone and i want it to go on the internal sd. I tried seeing if the files would go directly on the sd so i put a few music files in a folder i created but when i checked my task manager the internal memory storage changed, not the internal sd storage.

It depends what OS you are running.
2.1 used /sdcard for internal and /sdcard/sd for external
2.2 moved these directories under /mnt but left the old directories empty

Does anybody know what to do if the sd folder is deleted?
I noticed I had an 'sd' folder and an 'external_sd' folder. The sd folder was blank, so I deleted it after I viewed it on my pc - there was nothing in it. It didn't seem to be needed. But now I can't view certain files on my phone only. I can view them on my laptop via USB connection using Windows Explorer.
To attempt to find this folder on my phone, that I CAN see on my laptop using Windows Explorer, I created a txt file in that folder (that I can't find on my phone), naming it 'sdmissing.txt'. I searched everywhere on my phone, even from root directory, trying to find this file and couldn't. Yet after connecting to my laptop via USB, I can see it. What can I do??
Thanks in advance for any help!

backup important data and apps with tibu or any other apps in the market and perform factory reset with your phone it should bring you back to where you are.

Turn off and on ur phone to see if it works for you or not. I found that sd is a hidden folder and its blank. When I flash custom roms, I do it without going to stock. But, I do delete Android, data, sd and some other folders, that I know will be automatically created after the reboot/flash. When I go to cwm recovery to install rom from zip, I do see the Android folder and sd folder showing up there. Don't panic. Just do normal shutdown and restart. If that doesn't fix, reflash the custom rom if you are using one.

Can someone tell me how to move files to the internal memory without connecting to pc.
when i try doing it wth file manager it says file could not be moved
i cant pay for any app right now, need something free
notenoughspace is one app that can do it but i again i cant pay for it right now. If anyone has it plz post the apk.
What ROM do you use? Astro File Manager works fine with Nokie Froyo and rooted stock.
P.S. Are you aware that if you want to store files in eMMC, you should place them in /media folder, not in /,/system etc.?
I am using cm7 right now, i try to place files in my files and it fails
Edit: it working now, but only copy and paste, when i use move, it fails but thats not a problem anyway.
i think the place you are trying to put the files is mounted as read only. Try putting files in the /media/ folder using astro or esf
Root Explorer is best file/rights manager...
Good question. Once you have Root Explorer working, try emailing the files to your self then install to SD Card or eMMC.
Good luck m8.
I use Dropbox to port files to my Nook, Gtab, and Evo phone. Just open Dropbox and download the file on your device. Dropbox puts it on your SD card in the "Dropbox" directory. Then you just use Root Explorer to move and paste from there to your emmc memory folders.
Hi guys,
I recently bought a HTC One, I rooted it cause I wanted to change the htc icon to being operational so then flashed the kernel teaMSeven-sense-4.2.2-kernel-v2.1.4.zip. All appeared to be fine but now I am being told that I have no SD card installed so I can't access my photos, use my camera or access the Dropbox app properly. I presume there are some other issues but can't be sure yet. When I connect my computer to my laptop I can access the internal storage without a problem. When I go to recovery mode and go to Advanced - File Manager - sdcard I can see all the folders. Also when I go to mount and try it first gave an error that usb-otg couldn't mount and now it hangs at updating partition details.
Please help!

try this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1YiI-ZZGBs
USB OTG is not your internal storage.
I had the same issue and that video is far too complicated for what you actually need to do.
This is what I did when I upgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 on my HTC One.
Issue: You will have a new place for your data now. The default under 4.2.2 is now /data/media/0. Under 4.1.2 it was /data/media. Notice the extra /0 - that's for a multi-user environment.
Resolution: Needs root access, of course.
1. Install ES File Explorer
2. Enable ES File Explorer to have root under it's settings.
3. Navigate to /data/media
4. Ta-da! All your old files are there! NOW...
5. Select and move your files that you want to keep from /media/data to /media/data/0
This worked for me 100%. My free storage was only 2.58Gb with a fresh 4.2.2 install. Because I moved all my wanted files across and deleted all the other legacy items, it's now about 13Gb free.
Used the youtube vid so thanks for that osmosizz, worked well and thought me a bit in the process like getting your java paths right!!
Will try your method Joe if this happens again, cheers
Hello! First sorry of my english!
I have i9000 internal memory of his burnt. As a result, the device turns on only to symbolize Samsung Dwonload Mode and Recovery. I found a solution to put an external sd card partitioned and install ROM through Odin and then error correction dbdata file then the device increases. I Divided with minitool partition but the device did not initilaze. So i installed Recovery blue cwm that comes with cm10.1 (do not remember the version of Recovery) partitions divided his card and rose with the beauty device Orange Rom 2.3.5. currently i have a problem access to my files and when i run camera you get an error "Turn off USB storage". I found solutions to Root the device and install on your computer myphoneexplorer and through root explorer installed on your device. Then access the device via root explorer etc folder name change or replace the file vold.fstab the same file, but the device instruction set that gives access to an external card if it is inside. I did it but without success.
Would appreciate help on this issue and if I was wrong for the whole process I will be happy to correct Thank you very much!

gt-19295 on lollipop 5.0.1
the problem started that whatsapp stopped downloading media,and when i try to download it say there's no enough space,even that there were enough space.
i don't know what started the problem!! but maybe after root!
i did some changes to platform.xml ..
but know the problem extended to,
all apps stopped working ( cause they can't reach sdcard maybe) even i can't start helium to make a back up!
even "my files" say that there's no files ( not seeing internal or external card)
and es file explorer when choosing sdcard say "cannot start streaming server"
but root explorer can explore files from /storage/emulated (external and internal)
===>
i 've unrooted it and restored the original platform.xml
downgrade it to kitkat and re upgrade it
cleared cache partition
nothing worked!
please what could be the problem ? and how to fix it?
sorry if i didn't make it so clear , cause im not so fluent in English.
and thank you for reading.
P.S when i was flash a firmware it was restore the custom status to official ,but now it stay custom !
There's noway I can reset system settings and keep personal data!
(apps data contacts messages..)
removing-replacing-editing files using root explorer?!
cause this is the only thing works now! :T
and i don't wanna to do factory reset ;(
