So yeah, my phone memory turned to 32gb from 128gb after I used the force wipe data from the oneplus3t toolkit can there be a way to fix this?

Thanks for the reply, tried it and still gives me 32gb of internal storage. Do I need to format/wipe the internal storage or the system?
Fixed bro, changed the file system from f2fs to ext4.

Hi!
I would like to fully format my phone ,as in both the internal as well as the external memory.But i would like to know if CWM would be erased by this procedure or does CWM resides on the phone memory.
Thanks all.
Cheers!

i thinjk that CWM its on the internal memory, you could make the full wipe from CWM , so certainly not erased. ithink

Hello to format then you have to use the Dual smartflash a tool that allows you to perform a full format with regard to the internal memory. The phone will be as soon as it left our facilities. But as for formatting the memory card, the easiest and fastest way is to insert the SD format from PC to your PC and format it

just go to CWM / Mounts&Storage and do all the formats that you see there, except for /system.
Those formats will not harm your CWM but will absolutely erase all user data, and internal SDcard, and external SD, it will not remove your rom but the rom will be factory fresh (asking for the google account on 1st boot).

Well... formatting /system will wipe your rom.
isn't that what i said?
edit : indeed, it isn't what i said... , so OP shouldn't format /system.
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?

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.

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
I have the T599N phone with the newest clockwork recovery installed. I noticed my internal sd card is a complete mess and understand that it's not formatted when installing new ROMs. What's a safe way to format it? Does formating it through the clockwork recovery work? I don't want to brick anything. Thanks!
EDIT: It worked, in CW recovery I formatted the /data/media/ (sdcard) partition and it cleared out the internal memory perfectly.

Yep it'll work. Wipe cache and dalvik cache while you're at it too.

I used Quarx's CM11 for a couple of days. While making a nandroid backup through CWM recovery (the .img found in Quarx's thread) I tried backing up to the internal storage. CWM reported /data backup error. After rebooting system reported it is low on storage. Somehow it only sees 3.8 GB of internal storage now.
Since then I tried formating and /data and restoring previous backups. Nothing helped. Flashed KDZ file, rooted again and now I'm using stock, locked bootloader. Still the system only sees 3.8 GB of internal storage.
Any pointers or ideas? My assumption is that CWM somehow partitioned internal SD while making the backup and now one of those partitions is not visible to the system. Is there any way to delete all internal storage partitions?

Internal storage is only 3.8 GB. CWM or any other recovery will NOT partition your internal storage.
But simple zip package can do it
2GB system partition is massive waste of space

Can you link to the page with this zip?
I don't have it. I just wanted to say that it's easy to do. But as lg software don't repartition memory during flash of kdz, it could be risky
OK other phone I had has external SD card. When I wiped data it wiped internal SD completely. Since turbo has no external SD, will it wipe completely or just Android file data and preserve other files on internal SD. If it does wipe internal SD completely how would you flash ROM? Thanks for any advice.

That depends on what kind of wipe you do. If you do a factory reset in TWRP, it will not wipe your user data (downloads, music, everything else in /data/media/0 or /sdcard). However, if you select Format Data, or you pick Internal Storage in the advanced wipe menu, all of your user data will be wiped. Usually, a factory reset is all you need after flashing roms, so you don't have to worry about losing photos/music/etc.
Great thanks for the fast reply. OK other phone was sgs3. Sometimes when flashing and then running new ROM it seemed the settings stayed the same as previous ROM. Devs would have you format data for clean install. How would that work on this droid turbo?
I also wiped data and it wiped my internal storage. I thought maybe I had wiped internal storage accidentally or did something else wrong but this leads me to believe I didn't do anything wrong. Back to the previous version that worked for us? (I think it was 2.8.7)
Edit: I just read that choosing to format data will also format internal storage, but a factory reset which "wipes data" does not touch the internal storage. This is a little confusing if you aren't familiar with how everything is partitioned. Is internal storage actually on the data partition?

If I have the ROM and gapps on internal SD and format data I loose ROM and gapps right? Then how would you install ROM? Second if I delete Android file on internal SD would that make it a clean install? But other files would still remain. Just trying to understand so I don't brick or can't get ROM on. Thanks

Yes, the internal storage is on the data partition. When you do a factory reset with TWRP and you read the script as it executes, it says something like "wiping /data without wiping /data/media." Doing the factory reset wipes everything on /data except /data/media, which is where your user data lives. So what gets wiped is all of the user apps and the data generated by the system apps, but your user data is preserved.
It makes sense that wiping data would wipe everything. I think having separate boxes for data and internal storage is to account for someone who might install an older version of android that is partitioned differently. I can't remember when the change happened, but at one point, the user data and app data were kept on separate partitions. I think that user data lived on /sdcard and apps lived on /data. That's why you see the /sdcard folder as a symlink when you go exploring with a root browser. It's symlinked to /data/media/0 to maintain backwards compatibility with older apps that are expecting /sdcard to exist.
Thanks st33v. My last phone had a /sdcard partition separate from /data so I think that is where the misperception came from. It also had /sdcard2, which was an actual SD card.

Yep my thinking too. You guys are great! Cleared it up.
If you wipe all your files simply use twrp and connect it to the PC. You can drag the files over for flashing.
