I tend to use my HD as usb drive most of the time for transfering files. But recently i discovered that my storage card as been duplicated as starage and storage2 and the working one now is storage2 however all my installed program were done to storage card, so none of them works. please help as i dont want to reflash my phone.
I am using davideuk v.4.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
Simple.
Just delete the Storage Card Folder and restart your mobile.
I cannot because i still have another program file folder in my previous storage folder.
Actually that fixed it. thanks
Recently I had my galaxy s3 updated to cm10.1, and I'm loving the new features but I'm having some difficulties connecting the phone to the computer for file transfer. My computer does recognize the device, but when I click on it, and look in the internal storage, it shows that there are no files in there, even though there are. When I go in my file manager on my phone, there are 3 storage components: sd card (/storage/sdcard1), internal storage (/storage/emulated/0), and USB storage (storage/usbdisk0). I'm only able to access internal storage, and the rest it says "This operation requires elevated permissions. Try changing the Root Access mode." Not sure if this part is relevant, but just wanted to share. What do?

Good luck...
i have try the software u said.
but the problem is they dont detect the internal memory of the HOX.
after uptade to jelly bean when i plug the usb cable dont appear like in ICS for choose to charge or to hard disk.
so how to solve this?
thx regards
did you looked on pc also...? it can also be that you must update htc sync because of the mtb thingy.....second should be look for an sd speed app..and set it to 128 instead of most 2048.....
if that also fail...the data should be gone...maybe a wipe script that also wiped sd card or something like this
go into recovery and mount usb storage
hi
i have try go to recovery with clockworkmod and if i try to mout sd card nothing happen.
i choose mount sd card and then i reboot the phone and apears unmout again.
and in the phone if i go to settings and storage on the bottom said USB Storage device is not available.
thx
regards

what version of cwm...htc sync updated..?
yes htc sync is updated and the cwm is 5.8.4.0.
thx
so from that side all ok...if you are in a file explorer...and go to sd..you see something...? if yes..try to mount from clockwork...if not work...try to copy the files with adb
Tough luck brother, if all else fails then deal with it. Many, including me, have faced the same. Good luck to you.
When you mount the USB mass storage in recovery you have to stay on that screen or it will auto-unmount. Once you've done that load up Recuva from Piriform and scan for the phones storage on the pc.
Good Day All.
I'd like to share a weird problem that I've encountered today.
I have a Lt26 running .55 firmware stock, and my OS is Windows 8 Pro 64bit.
Now what happened today was I plugged my phone in my PC via USB, the "Xperia“ icon appeared in My Computer, under removable devices. I clicked on it, it will show Internal Storage (Contents on my phone)
Until this stage, everything was fine. I then went into my phone's internal storage to look for a mp3 file, but ended up finding an empty folder called "sdcard". Now the strange part comes, I've never seen this folder, and it appeared in my internal storage's root folder. I went into this folder, there was an empty folder called "Screenshot".
Bear in mind at this time there are 11GB of files on my phone. And all other files are presence on my internal storage, all was normal.
I made a bad decision to delete that empty folder, by pressing Shift + Del. Bad choice, my Explorer process got stuck, so I had to force close it. Then I pulled out my USB cable....
Now when I plug in my phone again, the internal storage shows that I have 25 GB of space available, but when I goto the root folder of the internal storage. I can see ALL THE FILES ARE STILL THERE, WITH CORRECT FILE SIZES. But if I unplug the usb cable, and open Root Explorer on my phone, the SDcard folder now has nothing in it, completely wiped. And the total available space now shows as "25GB" (Which is the full space)
I can only see those files on my PC. But when I try to copy them out of the phone, Windows tells me "Unspecified Error". I looked up for the meaning of that error code - Access Denied.
I have tried to mount Internal Storage as SD card using SD Mounter V2.0. Then used some recovering software to scan for files on that drive. I manage to recover 9000 files with a file size of 32kb only. Interesting enough, I can not copy anything back to the internal storage anymore.
I suspect that I might accidentally deleted the file index. As I've never seen that folder before.
MY QUESTION is. Are those data still there on my phone? Should I just give up trying to recover those files and clear internal storage within my phone's option?
Many thanks.
Use sony pc companion and try to back up everything on ur computer.
After that format ur cell.
Thn restore ur backup.
If the files are available it should help
Or else no way out.
Press thanks if helpful!

Hi there. I tried your method, and unfortunately the files can not be recovered this way. PC companion "having error trying to copy files". So I used Final Data and recovered about 70% of my stuff.
Thanks again for the input.

That's exactly what happened to me (deleted sdcard folder inside internal storage, etc, pc companion has errors trying to copy files). So I'm pretty much in the same situation now. Did Final Data really solved your problem? Where can I get it? Do you know any other software that might do it?
Thanks

And how did you recognize the internal storage inside Final Data?

Firstly, you can google around Final Data. Or try using Recuva. They both work, but I'd say Final Data works much better. I managed to recover 29G of stuff (Most of them are not working) from both softwares.
To get Final Data recognize your phone's internal storage, you must remember to use SD Mounter by Soheli (I used V2.0). It's in the same forum, maybe you should look for it. Sorry I don't have the link anymore.
DO NOT TRY TO COPY ANYTHING INTO YOUR PHONE AT THIS STAGE (Except for SD Mounter Maybe). Mount your Internal Storage as Mass Storage after you installed the apk file. Your PC should recognize the drive as a "Removable Drive", then open Recuva or Final Data, do a deep scan (It took me a whole night just to scan through 11GB of files, another 3 hours to recover the files).
Good Luck. I recovered 70% of my stuff with this method.
Can somebody explain what that SDCARD folder actually is?

Damn, it requires root and I don't have the phone with it and trying now to root it would wipe data (at least it seems so)...

Ok, I was able to do it. Having stock ICS without root and bootloader locked, I had to get root to try the sd card mount and recover data.
Luckily, I found Bin4ry's root method for Xperia S: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460 . It worked as a charm, and now I have root in stock ICS (without unlocking bootloader).
After, I follow your comments, installed SD Mounter: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1744878 , mounted the Internal Storage as SD Card and was able to run the PhotoRec and recovered almost all pictures (without the correct name). Couldn't use Final Data and Recuva only found 5% of the photos.
You can recover data from android phone internal storage, see this solution: recover data from android phone internal memory
hope this helps.
Ok well first hello this is my first thread!
I'm having problems transfering files to my S4 (M919) on both internal and external SD, the issue is when im transfering files bigger than 1GB just before it finishes I get the messeage "the device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected", I looked for someone with a similar problem here in the forums and found that maybe enabling mass storage instead of MTP could solve this and it didn't work, I was trying to copy a 4.3GB file to my external sd in mass storage mode and now a message pops up saying that theres not enough space and file cannot be copied when there is 29.3GB free on the SD and only reads my external and not the internal memory can someone please help I'm getting tired of this I can't even copy a file to my phone, thanks.
Also the phone is rooted with clockwork touch 6.0.3.2, I have tried different USB ports and different computers and its all the same.

I assume you're using the cable that came with the phone? I only ask because I can't transfer a TouchWiz ROM with any other cable than the stock one; I'll get the same error as you. Also, I don't know if you're keeping the screen on during transfer, but try that as well.

Yes I'm using stock cable and the same thing keeps happening just 5 seconds before finishing the transfer, and yes keeping the screen on and it doesn't make a difference.
