I backup my rom file and tried to restore from backup files. It always fails, with Error about /data(I can't remember well...).
When I boot and check storage, it does not shows internal sdcard, but only 1.94GB storage and my external sdcard storage. When I tried to mount /emmc in CWM, it always fail.
Is there any problem with my phone? Is it became half-bricked?
Hi, friends. I flashed a few custom roms and kernels, also quite a few applications. Now I want to start fresh with a new custom rom and installing afresh applications. I do not know what kind of folders and files are in Internal SD card (accumulated over a peroid of time). Can I format the internal SD card, just before flashing a new rom. if so how? thanks.

If you are on safe kernel then yes you can format your internal sd card. Just go to SETTINGS>STORAGE>FORMAT SDCARD(INTERNAL STORAGE)

Yes you can format as above said by sahil, but make sure to copy DCIM folder, if your camera having default setting and your snaps are there. Same way copy any other folder, which you have manually create/edited like music/videos. Rest of folder will recreate as system need.
Another alternative is to mount in windows and format there, as Dr k said keep the dcim folder.

note that on some kernels, the emmc and sdcard are swapped, so format sdcard can sometimes wipe external.
Happened to me unfortunately a couple if times so take caution and remove external and format both to be sure

Hi All,
I have done repartitioning to my N7000 (using 16GB internal + 16GB ext card) with Odin with PIT file & the required *.md5 and used the 10gb Data partition PIT file.
But after reboot the application partition completed, but the rest partition not showing and giving error of "Blank USB storage"
I have tried to connect with PC to format it, but also there the partition is not able to format.
Kindly help if anybody have faced the same issue and done some solution to restore this internal memory.
@vikashrastogi PIT file is usually flashed aside and together with an entire stock firmware.
I have no clue how could your phone survive such attempt

I have been trying to create the SD card. I have followed the following instructions:
"You'll need my CWM early 7.1 image that you'll need to write to an sdcard, at least 4G in size. (gunzip and use dd or winImage)
Also get the the stock image from stock-ovation-2.1.0.zip and either place it to internal storage or reboot from the card and use adb push it to /sdcard (basically it's like you install CM ROM, refer to user-friendly thread in General if you cannot follow my condensed instructions here, only use different file name). Note this already has gapps and other stuff, so you don't need any additional installs other than stock at the beginning."
However, on the SD card there is a partition with 5 files but it is only 110mb and I cannot write the ovation zip file to it. I tried using a partition manager to increase the size of the partition but that did not work. To make sure that i am doing this right I unzip the CWM early 7.1 image and use WIN32 to flash it to the SD card. How do I increas the size of the partition so I can put the ovation zip file on the SD card Thanks

You need to download that file onto your internal storage, e.g. boot your nook without the new SD card, navigate with a browser or other means, and download the file. When you later boot into the cwm on the SD card, you will see the option to apply a zip file from internal storage, and navigate to it from there. You do not want to resize any partitions on SD card.

So the SD card is bootable and the file I need to put on internal storage is the ovations zip file? So once I have rebooted applied the zip is the B&N operating system installed on the SD card so I can delete the zip file on internal memory? Thanks I bought the Nook HD+ rooted and I want to deregister it from the previous owner and register it in my name. I assume this would be the way to do it without returning the Nook to stock. Thanks

Do you have his screenname and password? You will need it to register it on SD and then you can deregister.

hi everyone,
i am using TWRP 2.2.1 on my sgs+ for a long period w/o problems, but now i did some mistake and i cannot anymore read external SD from TWRP.
what i did is: full wipe and factory reset (as i always did before any flash), but this time i also did an internal storage wipe, because i wanted to try a clean installation of a rom.
after this internal storage wipe, i went back to install menu, but i am not able to see external storage. it seems that i only get access to internal storage.
if i try nount menu and i mount external sd card, i can correctly see the sd on my win7 pc, so i am sure that it works and the files are inside it.
but if i cannot access it from twrp, i cannot flash any rom!
i try to play wit mount menu, and check some field (mount system, mount data, mount cache...) but i do not even know what i am doying!
any hints?
thanks in advance!
I experience a strange thing when installing CM 11 in my p880 the internal storage appears in CM empty (freshly initialized) despite there having been files before installing CM from that storage.
Now, when I boot back to ClockWork it shows me the new empty /sdcard but when I install a backup from the external sd card of the stock OS than the contents of the internal SD card is back and all the stuff that CM created/added is located inside a subdirectory of it /sdcard/0/
And no the backup did not contain the contents of the internal storage only boot.img /system and /data and /cache
So apparently Cm11 is handling the internal storage differently from he stock ROM in a way that makes its original content inaccessible :/
What wonders me the most is that ClockWork assumes the internal storage behavior of the installed ROM shouldn't that be independent?
That surly must be a known behavior so whats up with that can I somehow make CM use the internal sd instead of its /0/ subdirectory.
Or is the only way to not have inaccessible files to format the sd card from ClockWork while it still shows it properly just before flashing cm11?
