Samsung Galaxy S cant see inbuilt ROM - Galaxy S I9000 General

Hi have a problem hope someone can help me, just connected the phone to the pc through usb but cant seem to see the inbuilt ROM. I've gonne into the phone settings and selected mass storage connection setting but still nothing.
I'm running Win7 32bit,
Thx

with mass storage you can only see the SD Card I believe (not 100% sure but that's how it is on my HTC Magic)
I think to see the inbuilt ROM you have to open it with Kies

if i plug my omnia in it shows both inbuilt an sd memory so dont know why its doing this...

That is because the Magic doesn't have any extendend internal memory. You can't see the system/apps partition with mass storage. On the Galaxy S, 2 GB of the internal 8 or 16 GB are reserved for that, the rest (6 or 14 GB) is extended internal storage - like a non-removable SD card. With mass storage, you should see that and the SD card.

on the galaxy1 you also see the internal 8GB as a standard mass storage on the PC.

Take the sd card out and try maybe ???

good to know thank you phew =D I hope it works with the galaxy S also

If you have a newer stock-rom (2.2.1, JPY,JS5) you can put some apps from the system memory to the internal sd (System/Application/Manage Application). The errormsg is because you run low of system memory.
bye
sorry but im really confuse i got this
External SD
total: 7.41Gb
available: 6.33gb
Internal SD
total:5.78gb
available: 5.70gb
then there is this internal phone storage
1.63gb available
whats the difference on internal SD and the internal phone storage? is there any way we can merge the internal sd and internal phone storage. coz what i notice is when im installing apps it goes on the internal phone storage and external sd but the internal sd doesnt change even a thing

When i remember correctly is the internal sd some sort of extra memory for your phone. On the internal phone memory is the android system and space for some apps.
It is not possible to merge the mem. You can free mem when you put the apps from the internal phone mem to the internal sd.
bye
ah so it means that when u transfer the installed apps on sd it goes on internal sd not external sd one?

SD cards not recognized on my new HD2

Hi everyone
Bought my HD2 a couople of weeks ago. Since I recieved I have not been able to mount my sd cards. I have 2 8gb adata ones both class 6 and one 8gb bought from **** smith electronics (a class 4).
I have tried formatting with SDformatter from the sd association and with EASEUS partition master. Both don't seem to have any effect on my hd2 mounting the cards.
The funny thing is though when I use magdlr and use the usb mass storage function with the sd card in, on my pc it recognizes the mass storage and I can copy files to the sd card and then put the sd card in a card reader and the files are there.
I have tried mounting the sd card in a couple of nand android builds and the official windows 6.5 rom for LEO but to no avail. Phone still does not recognize sd card.
Any help or ideas on what I can do? Really want to have wp7 with 720p video recording
I'm sure you know this but on the cm7 builds I use when you connect USB you have to jump to pull down notification screen, tap USB connected and then tap "turn on USB storage " before it shows up to your PC.
have you installed automount from the market?
Yes I did try automount but that didn't work. I am just hoping that it is not a hardware fault. But the usb mass storage feature in magdlr worked for copying files to the sd card

be alittle carefull with the magldr mount, it doesnt handle larger files well apparently. cwm has a mount option that works well.
I am having this kind of problem too and bought a card from austrailia. problem is my HD 2 reads my 2 gb card but when i pop a 16 gb , it freezes. On my pc however it reads the card and i can store data
Formatted the thing and no effect. would love some advice as well. It is a class 2

Do you still have WP7 flashed on the NAND? Absolute worst case scenario, start at the beginning. Reflash Windows Mobile 6.5, then Magldr, then Android ROM for NAND.
Am I reading this right that you're booting Android from your SD card?
win7 already i flash witn android nand. No its not booting from SD. it booting from Nand.
I guess my next question is why would you want to put photos and music on the NAND? The HD2 only has 1GB. Wouldn't those files be better suited for the SD card?

Micro SD doesn't mount correctly

Hello. There is one thing that doesn't really work well by me: if I plug the phone (usb) and choose the mobile archive function, windows 7 detects 2 thing:
- space volume of 12 GB (the phone?)
- MICROSD32 (the name i used when i formatted it), which is 32 GB
The problem is that not the whole microsd is mounted: from the file browser on the phone, I can see that the micro sd is there, and then there is a folder named 'external_sd', and THAT folder is the folder that is been mounted on windows.
This doesn't allow me to read/write data files on the sd (application files, savegames, and so on)....because it doesn't mount that part of the micro sd.
Is there a way to fix this? I am always forced to copy/cut/paste things from the phone file browser...to get to the micro sd root...
And BTW i have root access now. if that can make a difference with this.
I just noticed that I am wrong, and BOTH volumes belong to the same micro sd....the mobile storage 12GB is the root of the microsd, while the other 32 GB volume....is also the microsd....but the external-sd folder....why this partitioning?????
external_sd is where your 32 giga micro sd should be mounted, if you're browsing from the phone.
You should have checked the option 'usb debugging ' in menu/applications/development'. Then connect the phone to pc and you should see the both internal and external storage.

It doesn't happen. I have usb debugging, but it mounts the micro sd as two volumes : 12 GB and 32 GB...which is impossible.
Also browsing from the phone, the mircrosd (sdcard) has an internal folder named 'external_sd'....weird.
Maybe I should reformat the card from the phone? I formatted from the computer before putting it in the phone...but it was completely empty.

Without an SD card in your phone your memory problems are not over. You'll realize that once you start installing apps in ICS.

Buy an sdcard and boot to wp7 and reset the phone in settings and while its in magdlr put the sdcard and it will be formated and used with wp7. Micro SDcards are not that expensive, I bought a 16 gb for 20 bucks and saw the 8 gb for 12.
How to do that
