[Q] Big problem ! Cant mount my exst. Sdcard in recovery - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Android Elite ,
today happened a big bad problem to me:
My provisorily used rom was IllusionRom. I started the wipe routine on CWM recovery v6.0.3.4 to flash a new rom (SlimBean).
Now I must select the zip image but unfortunately are the ext. Sdcard not mounted. So I've navigated to "mounts and storage" to mount my ext. Sdcard without success. I have only access to my internal sdcard where nothing to find. My entire backups, roms are on my external Sdcard.
Is there a little chance to change the filesystem ?
Thanks alot ! :laugh:
P.S
Please excused my bad english, I've written this text with pure desperation :laugh:

[Q] internal sd-card fail to mount?

Hi guys. i have a Note thats behaving strange in recovery .
first when i get the phone i root whit cf-root and flashed latest Check rom.
in CWM i got this really strange thing i´v not aeen in my other devices SGS & SGS2. when beging to flash it comes up like this
20s sd-card mounting
19s sd-card mounting
18s sd-card mounting
counting down to 0 then it says cant mount sd-card let go anyway and it installs whatever.
yesterday when i was installing a theme
and was going to make a factory reset whipe data and it was unable to do so because it couldent find the sd-card and whent to boot loop .
whent in to recovery again flashed check-rom and the phone started.
but what the hell is the problem whit my internal sd-card and is there any solution to fix this by my self? or must i unroot and flash back stock rom of the phone via odin and send to repir?
sorry if this question came in wrong section or is asked alot.
best regards
do you have an external sd card in the phone?
what kernel are you using?
ive seen some kernels swap the internal and sd mounts around so the internal becomes external and external internal
using the cf-root kernel that comes whit the check-rom. got no external sd-card.

[Q] SD Card can't be formatted nor add files to it.

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

[Q] problem with sdcard

Hello everybody
After two days of research and attempts, I finally gave up and decided to ask for direct help.
So, a week ago I rooted an Orange-branded Ace and flashed a few ROMs over the next 3-4 days to try to find the one that could suit better.
However, I screwed up something cause at some point in the process the internal sdcard was not seen anymore.
I mean, I can still go in Recovery or Download mode, flash stuff through Odin, boot without problems and use my phone.
Although, any direct access to internal storage is forbidden.
So, no rooting.
Both 2e and 3e CWM can't mount sdcard.
The type of messages I get :
When I pick "apply update from sdcard" -> E:Failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)
When I rebbot after flashing -> -- Appling Multi-CSC... Installing Multi-CSC. Can't access to '/system/csc/whatever/system/'.
No way to get a USB connection either (different computer were tried), all with drivers correcting installed.
Also tried to get to the storage mass with MiniTool partition Wizard or through Disk management, but nothing.
Factory reset is useless, as well as any recovery's wiping process.
No sdcard formatting is possible.
I flashed several stock firmwares, went all the way back to Froyo, but nothing.
I wanted to try and flash a rooted stock rom, but couldn't find any /:
Hopefully one of you will come up with the fix.
Anyway, thanks in advance to everybody.
Cheers

Sdcard is an external memory, and yes you can't manage it without root permissions so when you connect your phone via USB to your pc you can't see your internal memory partition, only the external (micro sd-card).
Maybe your sdcard is corrupted, try to format it with an USB adapter and then try again

Hey, thanks for the reply
Although, I'm afraid I might not have been clear.
I haven't mounted any microSD so far and I've always been able to access to /mnt/sdcard (before screwing up).
Now, after flashing anything on the device, trying to access to My Files - or whatever file manager - will result in a dead end, since no sdcard is seen by the device itself (so, for example, I have no access to DCIM, or Music, Movies, anything).
I can't format the device cause:
- the computer doesn't see it (although drivers installed), not even from Disk Manager
- general disk-formatting/wiping softwares don't see it
- formatting from Recovery is impossible

Well, I'm gonna explain my post...In my opinion your SD-CARD is corrupted!!! so format YOUR SD-CARD, NOT YOUR PHONE!
Use an USB sd-card adapter!
Right?

But you're talking about the microSD, right?
What I mean is that, at the moment, I don't have one mounted in the phone.
I've had one before having problems, but I messed up partitions, so had to format everything anyways.
But, right now, it's out of the phone.
Also, as I was saying, I cannot access common folders like Music or Downloads, nor can I drop the update.zip on the internal memory to root, and I don't think any of this has anything to do with external storage /:

".../sdcard/music
/sdcard/downloads
/sdcard/DCIM..."
All the folders you are saying, they are in sd-card folder so.... and ROOT.zip must be in SD-CARD to flash it....
Did you try to do wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache via stock rom then when you finished to flash the stock¿?

I'm sorry, but I might be misunderstanding.
All these folders are in the sdcard folder.
But the sdcard folder is internal, not a microSD, am I right?
When you suggest that the "SD-CARD" might be corrupted and that I should format it, are you referring to the sdcard folder?

Yep. I've flashed (several times) 2.2.1, 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 stocks, wiping everything before flashing and right after having flashed, but I'm always stuck with no access to /sdcard or failure to mount /sdcard..

/sdcard = external memory = YOUR MICRO SDCARD!!!!! = THE THING YOU INTRODUCE INTO THE SIDE SLOT!! NOT INTERNAL MEMORY!!!
I'am refering to your SDCARD (above you can see what sdcard means)
And yes all these folder are saved in it
The Galaxy Ace does NOT have an internal sdcard. /sdcard is the external sdcard.

Hi inthered, I think this is getting confusing.
Sd card is the external storage, where you usually have the data, music, photos, etc. Is this sd card that your Myfiles see, if it isnt there Myfiles cant see anything, cause it cant access internal storage.
To access internal storage you must be rooted and have an app that could do that. I believe you said that your phone inst rooted, so you can only see external storage and seems that it isnt there. So you cant access all that folders ( music, etc,) cause they arent there
Have to mount SD first. You can format SD with Mini tool partition Wizard, in FAT32, and use it only as external storage.
Or you can create in this external storage one partition to help manage the internal storage, but that partition wont be seen by normal apps, like Myfiles, ou PC explorer, and you need to be rooted and everything else that didnt worked first time [but it works, I guarantee that]
To finish, internal storage can only be seen in rooted devices and with some apps ( never Myfiles)
Sorry if I wrote too much, but everyone was right, it had to be better explained
Hope I helped
thanks a lot everyone.
sorry for having been insistent, but i really missed the point about the no-internal-sdcard issue (as you might have noticed).
found only today a little time to re-partition sdcard and flash, and it finally works.
thanks again

help, problem with internal storage

Hi at all, I've a problem with my samsung galaxy note n7000, I have the latest 4.1.2 original samsung touchwiz , I've only rooted it,
the problem is that the android os doesn't mount the internal sd card, and get me a notification that say "blank usb memory or not supported file system", I tried to reboot custom recovery(philz recovery) and wipe data and cache, format sd card but nothing works, can anyone help me????
Did you format it to fat32? In recovery did you try formating the external storage?

*bump
I'm facing the same problem right now. It occurred after I did a hard reset. In the best case scenario, this is just a partition table corruption, but in the worst, a physically damaged card.
On Linux, I have fixed partition tables with a nifty tool called gpart (not gparted). There is a similar utility available for Linux, Windows, Mac etc. called TestDisk. Unfortunately, these tools are not available on Android. However, there is something called aparted available on Play Store that supposedly fixes filesystems.
I have installed it, but it wants to install some browser addons too. I've tried to repair the filesystem that it shows as empty, but no luck so far. I will shortly check its online manual, but I hope we can get something like gpart on Android.

Hi, I have been able to get the Internal SDCard (/storage/sdcard0) mounted again, albeit with loss of data. Look at my recent post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48595569&postcount=24
and the one from which I got the hint
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35726016&postcount=6
The step by step procedure is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26285877&postcount=12
but if you have only one partition damaged, you could just check it with e2fsck and then, if necessary, recreate it with mkfs.exfat or the other method in the referred post.
EDIT: link to parted and other files: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38598228&postcount=4
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/htc-droid-eris/78650-internal-storage-partitions-screwed-up.html
I don't know if you can recover your original data - I had tried formatting the partition, by mistake, to ext4 with mke2fs. You could avoid this, and see if you can back up your partition with dd before re-formatting it to fat32.
solved, I download latest frimware, and flash it throught odin and all are fixed

internal sdcard0 undetected with error: command '117 partition disk volume

Since this morning, my janice fails to mount the sdcard0 failing to download files from the browser, or pictures from whatsapp. Going in -Settings - internal memory; the sdcard0 been damaged and that to use it you must first configure / format it. Formatting does not start and a message appears: command '117 volume partition disk: 179_0 public' failed with '400 117 Command failed'
How can I fix the problem?
idk really about this..what about mount sdcard0 in recovery? Happy Canada Day ”9¶3
could you tell me step by step the steps to be taken?

What izwan15 is saying is that
GO TO RECOVERY (vol UP + HOME +POWER)
Select mount and storage option
See if sd card0(internal memory card) is mounted if you see it unmount , just click and mount it ,
reboot and see if it fixes the problem .
hope it helps
From recovery when I go to - Mounts and Storage - mount / storage / sdcard0 appear this error message: / storage / sdcard0: Idle-Unmounted E: Error mounting / storage / sdcard0.
I do not know which way to turn!
Please help me!!

HI , well i would say that the partition table is screwed for some reason, because the internal storage partition has gone completely gone you are having this issue simple thing to solve this would be flashing stock which will ultimately repart the partitions and format the sdcard0. [Try to backup some important data first].
SOLVED. Give a medal to this man.:laugh: Thank you so much @DaksAnkit.
I installed the Stock Rom via custom recovery (found on another forum by a user called Gargaros) and subsequently by a temporary recovery reinstalled the Rom I wanted (in my case 5.1.1). Now everything works perfectly!:victory:
