Internal memory is "locked"

Dear guys,
I have a very strange problem with my tab. The internal memory seems to be “read only” after restart.
Ai have this problem after I stopped a transfer between my laptop and the tab (a movie). The problem is that o can’t format internal memory, to fix any fat leaks. I try to wipe all, flash with every know firmware from h__p://w w w.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-p1000.htm, format internal memory from CWM. Every format command works (finish format ok),
I can used the space on tab (even accessing from laptop) but when I restart my tablet I have the old content.
My question is what the f__k is happened and who to fix it.
Many thanks in advance!

Any one??!?!?!
Any one??!?!?!

I can't help with the solution but fwiw I have exactly the same problem. Samsung's only suggestion was to send it in for repair but I'm hesitant to do that because all my data is still on the device. I've tried hard resetting it but everything comes back as soon as I reboot. I can remove or install application but they reset as soon as I reboot the Tab. I cannot make any kind of permanent changes to it.
It's very frustrating to say the least. Anyone have any suggestions for what would cause this? Mine is still a stock device with only a few market applications.

I also have some issues with internal "SDCARD" and that is that i cannot move anything onto it using andy SGT filemanagement system or the very bad KIES software. At the moment my external SD is full but the internal SD has like 14GB free and i cannot balance the storage!?!
If I move programs to SD will it me moved to internal or external SD and can I choose the setting?
The only way I managemd to move stuff into internal SD is to download files like films and music via DLNA over WiFi - those files are saved correctly were I want it...
any advise would be appreciated...

So this means that i can't repair my tablet?
I can't find any solution for this problem. and i believe that we are not the only one with this problem.

I send it to service... they replaced main board...
but canceled my warranty reason: unauthorized software intervention - root access
So... watch out for this. factory reset you tablet or mobile (if possible... in my case was not possible)
Thank you for your support.

I have the same
I have the same exact problem ,, anyone can help plz ??

Hi:
I´ve just discovered this forum. Hello...
Just the same problem here and Samsung doesn´t repair my device. Can you give me any help?
Regards

This is exactly the same problem I've encountered. Moments AFTER rooting the thing.
Which leads me to believe any and all warranty question is well out of the window.
Has anyone encountered a solution as yet?
I appreciate the posts above are a few months old so I'm hoping some sort of resolution has been found!

Same problem here too
Internal mem seems fine and you can delete things, but after reboot nothing is remembered.
Gave it to service (non samsung/carrier), They said that the p1000 is known for having bad internal memory problems.
They partitioned my 8GB external sd card and installed a Chinese MIUI rom 4.0.4 that is supposed to support installation and running from external SD mem.
The problem is they didn't remove the internal memory - so all old apps still exist there and can' t be removed (it probably mounts the internal mem and thinks it can write to it - but in practice nothing is written). So when i go to market and try to DL an app it says no memory left on device because it tries to put it on the internal mem and not the external.
Also, after reboot all the account setup wizard screen settings are forgotten and you need to redefine everything again.
I saw a thread on XDA that explains you need to remove the internal SD mem physically (and explains how to do it) but i am a little afraid to do it...
Anyone else try this ?
Also strange you need to change the whole MB for a faulty memory, why can't the internal mem just be replaced ?

Hi, please keep all question/help related threads in the Q&A section only. Thank You.

Instant reboot when moving app to SD card

Hi,
I have installed this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061648
Everything if fine except that all the apps are installed in the internal storage even though the app are listed in the SD card. If I press the button "Move to SD card" the button remains highlighted for a second then my Nexus One instantly reboots.
Is there a way to fix it? I already run the in the error: "No space left on device".
Thank you,
colossus73
PS.
I post here because the forum doesn't allow me to post in that thread neither to send a private message to the guy who cooked the rom.

Hi, I tried the hints in the post below but with not results. I have reverted to old Android non stock roms and then I installed all the Android updates directly from the phone. Then I used Superboot to have root and now I'm an happy user of my Nexus One.
Hope this helps.

[Q] Recover photos from internal storage

so yes... I know its impossible but I have lost lots and lots of family photos within the internal storage for my XZ. It was just yesterday when I wanted to give custom roms a try and I totally forgot about backing them up... ive been searching 13hrs so far on google trying to recover those files. The closest topic I found was this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994705 i am stuck on adb (google usb driver) installation part, which I get an error "The folder item you specified doesn't contain a compatable driver for your device. If the folder contains a driver, make sure it is designed to work with Windows for 32-bit
systems." can anyone help?
or please let me know if there is a way to mount xperia z internal storage to UMS mode? I mean I would like to connect my phone to pc then scan phone with software like Recuva.

that guide is for galaxy nexus. Not sure if you can do that, what you can do is contact Sony, tell them your situation and see if they can do some forensic stuff on the phone, sometime they can recover it...

that method applies for all phones , I have used it to recover my note 2 , Xperia Z and even the Note 1 so its same for all androids

I was having the same problem last time, accidentally deleted some photos on internal storage from my Son Xperia phone, then I did some research and found this solution: Sony Xperia data recovery
the Sony xperial file recovery guide helped me get back lost photos from internal memory of my Sony Xperia phone. hope that it helps you too.

Use a file explorer and navigate to /data/media and data/media/0 under /DCIM/100ANDRO and see if pictures are there.

Mount the XPERIA Z as an external hard drive and then use a program to recover the files (I'm on mac and I'm using Stellar Phoenix Mac Data Recovery... There's a windows version too).
Literally doing this to my sisters' XPERIA S as I type.
One drawback is that it takes forever.
EDIT: Sorry I just realised this is what you were trying to do all along. To get XPERIA Z mounted as an external drive go to settings>xperia connectivity>USB connectivity and select MSC. I know you requested UMS but these programs should still be able to recognise and recover data from these drives

kitkat concers. please take time to help a newbie

Ok so after reading about the limitation on kit kat regarding sd card, i got really confused being a newbie in technical aspects so i was hoping people here can shed a light on my questions:
1. Is the touchscreen issue fixed on kitkat?
2. If i update right now to kitkat, will all my pictures and mp3 saved in sd card be still readable and playable? Or will they be gone? Some people reported breaking sd card after updating.
3. Can i still download music and use file comando(never ised that app before) to move files to sd card?
4. If i use stock camera, images are still saved in sd right?
5. If i have an app moved to sd, and updated the app after updting to kitkat, will i still lose my saved files?
6. Does this limitation mean that we can no longer download files bigger than the internal memory of the phone? Isnt that going to make our xperia z1 useless if you have big apps and only have like 2g internal memory left??
7. I read something about apps can still write on your sd if they make a private folder but i dont understand it. So does this mean we can still download files directly to sd if the app supported kitkat?
Those are some of the questions i have for now. Please please someone answer me cause im really confused.. Thank you.

Search the forum...all questions will be answered if you put a little effort to it

1. It was fixed already in .136 4.3, if you still have problems go via Warranty.
2. Yes, with some specific applications.
3. No, you have to get root.
4. I think so.
5. How did you moved the apps to SD? it was never possible from 4.2.2.
6. Ask Google.
7. You are will not be allowed to write to SD until you get Root and modified system to do it. Search on Z1 section, is there.
Best answer for all your question is: Do not Update to KK.

Use any data recovery tool for windows and then recover files from the SD card using it..

Send form my Xperia™ Z (C6602) using tapatalk?

if the photo was on the internal storage
then i am sorry bro, it cannot be recovered
same thing happen to me at the start of the year
lost some very valuable memory...
tried everything my self, all the data recovery software avaliable
i even send the phone to 3 different specialist data recovery place
none of them was able to even extra an image file of the phone to work with...
(because Sony use a different file system ect then other android device, which, atm, has no interface for)
ever since then i got into the habit of backing up photos everyday onto a sky drive of some sort
so yah...
i am sorry
PS: data recovery place in your country might have better resource / system then mine (australia)
so if you want, give them a try...
i really hope you are more lucky then me bro

if it's external sd card, CardRecovery is best software. but it is paid software
