So after recently AE swapping my device, somewhere during the process of rooting the new one the recovery discovered a glitch. If I boot into recovery it says. "can't mount /recovery/cache" and if I try to install a zip from the SD it doesn't show any of my folders. It shows probably 6 folders all empty that I can't find anywhere on my SD. "GPU, weather, messages." I have tried re installing the recovery.

which recovery?
Um it's currently CWM touch but I tried putting regular CWM and it had the same issue. TWRP also shows no difference.

is there currently a rom loaded? if so I would say connect to it with command prompt and see if you can see the files with an adb shell
Yes the phone itself is working just fine. I sideloaded a rom. However not having working recovery is a significant annoyance. So I'm really just trying to fix the recovery itself.

So I just tried going to recovery. It displays the message.
" E: can't mount /recovery/cache/log
/recovery/cache/last_log
Recovery/cache/command. "
When I go to install from SD I don't see my SD folders. I only see.
" /0
/GPU
/clockworkmod
/mms
/weather"
None of these folders are on the root of my SD...

That's because you flashed a 4.2.2 Rom. Wipe your internal storage, reboot and copy your storage contents back to the phone.
Fyi your root has changed to /data/media/0/

Interesting, if I had flashed a 4.2.2 rom... But I didn't. I only flashed Ecliptic... But I'll try that fix thanks.

I flashed cm10 in cwm and it worked fine. Then I flashed jb gapps rebooted the phone. Android updated finishing boot. And when I go to use the phone it crashes and I can only manual boot into cwm and restore. Is it a bad download or is it cos cm10 is only a nightly and it could be a bit buggy
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Download the gapps again and flash it using recovery over the old apps
I will try that thanks.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
It works thanks. But everytime I boot my device it says the process gapps has stopped. I press on OK and it all works fine. Its funny.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Hmmm .. in that case you need a clean flash of the rom again followed by the gapps again
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
A clean flash. U mean factory reset and wipe cache
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
no i mean flash the current rom again using the wipes and formats (system data preload cache) and install the rom again the way you did it
I really appreciate or help, I'm a little confussed how I perform what or saying to do can u plz give me instructions a little more detailed. I'm still kinda learning as I go. And also do know what my external SD card is called in cm10. I can see it in the settings under storage. But I can't find it in any file browsers es or cm file browser.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
its should be in /storage/sdcard1 or /storage/extSdCard
make sure you have all the files needed to flash the rom on the phone..
now boot into recovery and go to mounts and storage
format /system, data, cache, preload
go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache as well
now > install zip from sd and flash the rom again followed by gapps
**** the above steps is assuming that you are still on the Cm10 kernel as its safe
Thanks sorted it out. But still no ext SD card. I know there is a lot of confussion with where SD cards are mounted in cm builds.

What's there us the /storage/ mount?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
For some reason SDcard 0 and sdcard 1 r both mounted in internal memory. ICS SD binder locates my external SD card in mnt/obb. So I thought that's where it is. But when I copy a file to mnt/obb it does not go to the external card I can't access it anywhere.

If it helps when I go into settings/ storage and go right to the last option I can't press on it to mount or unmount SD card. Do I need to mount it? Is this my problem

I've been noticing that I have no storage on my one so I cleaned it out causethe section called 'other' says it's using 18 gb so I deleted the nandroid backup I had and now other still says 12 GB it's using and I don't know what else it is. I've cleaned apps, music and my download folder but still that 'other' anyone have any ideas?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Browse through ES File explorer, or any other explorer. You may have a 0 folder which is sitting in /data/0 maybe..
after upgrading I found I had this odd 12 gig file sitting on the root of my sdcard. i deleted it and everything's running fine
No data/0 folder, is there an app that can tell me what the folder is?

Personally all data are used by CWM when you do a backup.
For see and download it, I used Rom Manager.

It has to do with how 4.3 and 4.2.2 Roms use the sd card vs 4.1.2. If you manually upgraded to 4.3, the symlinks to your sd card were not created, so you are not seeing music, etc.
I'm on a train right now, so can't point you to the correct threads that talk about this, but search for android 4.2.2 and sd card, emulated, legacy, /data/0 .

Uve got astro and root browser. My data/0 folder is empty and my HTC one has no lib.dir file that I can find. I've been deleting stuff and still over 12Gb in "other" I'm also using disk usage and no luck. Arrrggh frustrating

how about you check /data/media
history:
4.1.2: sdcard = /data/media
4.2.2+: sdcard = /data/media/0
but nandroids usually are still in /data/media/clockworkmod or /data/media/TWRP
you need a root-enabled browser to view files&folders in /data/media
SD card data is empty,media folder is empty. I am rooted not sure what u mean by root enabled browser but I enabled hidden folders in astro and root browser and deleted bunch of stuff from the cache folder but there's still a lot in there that I cannot delete. After all the new deletes my 'other' is still at over 12GB. It was at 18GB till I erased my clockworkmod backup but this only came about after doing a backup before flashing a rom.
If I had any hair I'd b pulling it out about now

that's cause the file explorer is not in ROOT mode

get ES File Explorer (free app), then enable Root Explorer (screenshot attached)
Got it and its enabled but under sdcard/data is empty
Sdcard/ media is empty except for 1 ringtone
Sdcard/clockworkmod has an empty backup folder and a download folder
I don't seem to have a structure that goes
SD/data/media/0
In the data folder there is nothing
I do see a sd/0 which has a bunch of folders which looks same as under sdcard. I've looked in the sd/0/data=nothing
Sd/0/media=nothing
Sd/0/clockworkmod= nothing

Ran into some road blocks with CM Nightlies. I install the new one everyday if they have one for download.
I downloaded todays version, rebooted into recovery to install. Now my phone is telling me there is no SD card to mount. Okay, whatever, I go to reboot my phone and now I have an encryption password to access the files on there. I have never set one. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can fix this?
Boot back into recovery and keep trying to remount sdcard

Still no dice. It just keeps telling me it count mount the SD card... Should I try flashing TWRP or another recovery?
So I was able to mount an external SD card and install the update. However, the phone is still encrypted. I never encrypted my phone so I don't even know how to go about getting around this. Does anyone have any ideas?
This phone was working just fine on the Nightlies until this...
Try flashing to a Stock ROM and then going back to Cyanogenmod
Sent from my 831C using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Found a fix. Apparently this is a somewhat common problem.
I went to Mounts and Storage on Clockworkmod, then format /data and /data/media (/sdcard). From there I installed the latest Nightlies and Gapps. Lost everything on my phone, but luckily all the important stuff is shared with my cloud services. Thanks for the help man!

I guess it was because I was on 1.0? I got it all situated...now I just gotta figure out how to convert my MicroSD to useable space for downloading apps....Google Play Services is needed for another app I installed...and thats the only two things i have installed!
So you are rooted and running a custom ROM now but have no room left in data partition?
If so you can try custom mtd partitions to free up some room or partition your sdcard to ext4 and run apps from ext partition, much faster than fat32

I'm having trouble with the partition part...I tried partitioning in my recovery and it still says EXT-SD not available, etc....done EXT2, EXT3, EXT4......
What recovery are you using? Try a full format of SD on PC, or even use something like gparted to do it if it won't work on recovery
