External storage error - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I was on a plane last night after the longest week ever on a trip.
I have a perfectly functioning nexus 10. I downloaded a flashable zip of clockwork touch recovery instead of the non touch one I was using.
Stupidly I flashed it and rebooted and ever since I get the gallery error of now external storage. Google play doesn't work either.
In setting the nexus knows I have 13gb available and I get no error messages when I boot into recovery.
A pain in the butt for sure and I am not sure how to undo my stupidity.

I tried reflashing. I tried fastboot -w. I tried a few other things but to no avail.
I'd prefer to just blast the entire partition structure and start over

I'll redo the boot loader tomorrow. Maybe flash the Ubuntu preview then back.
Thoughts?

So far no luck. I've relocked and unlocked. Changed recoveries. Installed ROM after ROM and still same error. I'm completely at a loss
Anyone have any ideas?

Did you try fix permissions in recovery?It's worth a shot.
I dunno why flashing any version of CWM would cause this though.

I did yes sir. I tried 100 million things. In the storage section of settongs the tablet knew it was a 16gb. But just wouldn't let it be mountable or usable.

Its almost like it doesn't know its partition size or where it is.

Sent to Samsung for repair. I'll report back their findings

I am having the same issue, not able to access Google play or the internal storage even after reinstalling to factory image many times. Have you got it resolved from Samsung. Please update

Hi. Sorry for the delay.
Sadly I contacted Samsung about it and it was officially broken. Happily Samsung repaired it under warranty for me. It was the motherboard that died.

Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk 2
I am not cleared with your problem. If you are trying to unlock your recovery than
1. Install Acer recovery application from play store.
2. From tegraowners.com download latest recovery image.
3. Save your recovery image in your sd card.
4. Run Acer recovery and backup your current recovery image.
5. Select install from sd card, and update your recovery.
Thanks for help

there is only one for acer and its free !
For OTA ICS:
Root using Blackthunders one click root tool. Then use Afterota to add kernel, v7 unlocked bootloader and CWM.
ICS has locked bootloader that you need to unlock before flashing a recovery.

Format internal sd

I did this with my s3 and it made everything fresh, install a new ROM and back to clean. Can I do the same with my s4? I went through cwm, format sdcard.

hehe everyone is still sleeping, yes you can do it, your recovery has the format INTERNAL SDCARD option, umm you are talking about the internal right?
Just make sure you are formatting the correct sdcard...be careful.
The Ax says good luck.
Yeah the internal. Will I have more space if I format then install like a cyanogen ROM or something? I have only 8 gigs on the 16 gig phone

That is not going to help gain the internal storage space sorry, I don't not care what you format your internal is going to see maybe 12 max, samsung has a hold on 4-5gig period, this is what you asking correct?
The Ax says, your welcome.
Correct. Even 12 is better than my 6 I have now.

You did good, you should be ok now. Happy flashing.
Anyway, what's up with this 5gb holdback? No fix or anything for this? I have an ext 16gb but can't figure out how to format it to work as a internal SD.

the locked bootloader stoppers us from re-partitioning the phone for more storage, and i agree its bullcrap sammy holds out SO much....even their stock odin ROM is less than 2 gigs....admittedly thats all compressed but still cmon man why advertise 16 and only give 9-12
I'm not really new to flashing/rooting etc, but still learning. Will the bootloader be able to be unlocked? Are all s4 bootloaders locked?

Error downloading updates!

Hello everyone!
My dad's nexus 4 hasn't been downloading updated recently. Whenever he says update all, many errors come. Any ideas?
By the way, he's on official 4.3. Stock, Unrooted.

[Q] No OS only clockworkrecovery mod and a computer

Hi. I recently deleted and formatted everything even lost all my recoveries and back ups and am trying to put nexus 4 stock rom back on to my device. What do I do? I still have clockworkrecovery mod but that's it and a computer to work with.
Download the factory images of your choice and flash them. It is the 15th time today that I am telling this to some one.

I've just done this and used Nexus Root Toolkit, absolute god send. Just plug your phone in, as long as you can get to fastboot, then flash stock + unroot and in a short amount of time you should be back to good.

ok that's what I was doing but I was going to try to install zip from sideload cause I don't even know how to get to my sd card and the android 4.3 stock rom I was downloading earlier was taking hours and my computer got shut off so that never completed.
Flash rom with adb. You will be fine

Then start with your computer first. Fix it and then fix your phone.

S4 dead

So my s4 which was running multirom with touchwiz and cm rom suddenly switched off and went into a bootloop. I tried reflashing. Nothing happened. So I flashed original firmware through odin with and without the pit file. Both times it went into a bootloop I.e stuck at samsung logo. I took it to the Samsung showroom. They said there was no warranty. One of my friends said that the motherboard could have been fried.
Your thoughts? Any hope to revive this phone? Or do I have a 40k worth paperweight? (Actually it's too light for that also)
