[Q] Nexus 4 Lollipop SimpleAOSP - no acces to internal storage - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I installed SimpleAOSP v10 on my Nexus 4 (with TWRP, 2.7xx; Paranoid Android 4.6 Beta)
When I discovered that any of apps can´t acces internal storage (imgs, downloads etc.) i switched back to paranoid android and updated TWRP to newest version. Then I´ve installed SimpleAOSP lollipop again, still no change (no acces to internal storage).
I saw guide, where is adviced to do factory reset via phone settings. (I dind´t try this yet, because not sure if it will delete internal storage with backups and rom imgs => if u know this please tell me what does it delete or change)
Any ideas?
Thanks for your time guys

Ask the developer the problem seems specific to the ROM

If you have backup of your rom/data (recovery), just restore it.

i'm using the rom without any problem.
your problem probably is something went wrong when installing. i suggest to try to format /data via recovery or a factory reset erasing everything even sd. also you could try to install a clean android (via wug toolkit or manually) and try to install a different version of simple asop.
P.S. i don't know if formatting /data will preserve your data or not. look it up!

[Q] Newbie questions (don't kill me Im new!)

Hy there I love xda and im a new user to xda nexus forum
With excelent guides I learnt how to root unlock and install custom rom (quite easy let it down into your internal storage and install from zip)
but I have few questions..
When I tried to wipe data and cache I accidentally did factory reset which ended up in no installed rom, internal storage empty and I was in custom recovery and I couldn't connect to computer, so I had to start from 0... last times I've been selecting wipe data and cache.. but I seen that in my nexus 7 some old files are still there (under a folder called 0) What should I do to make a clean install? which option of the new recovery should I choose? thankyou

Use TWRP for recovery and to do a clean install wipe all data from TWRP.

I'd flash a stock recovery image onto your device available here which would restore your device completely back to stock (with your bootloader unlocked) From there I'd just re root and do what you want. However I'd personally use CWM Touch Recovery myself, but I just like that recovery more (have used it and the non-touch version for ages and on many devices)

I actually have Team Win Recovery Project..
under wipe I can find
Cache
Dalvik
Factory Reset (This is the one I use.. but It leaves in my internal storage with a folder called 0 and my old data from previous roms is stored there)
System
External Storage
Int. Storage ?
Format Data (I did this and I lost everything except TWRM which I could boot at it (but I had no option to install from zip neither couldnt transferr a file through usb mount sd card didn't work))
Which one of all of this should I run before doing the install zip from sd card?

I think it would be easier and cleaner if you restored back to stock before trying to re root, flash recovery, etc. If you have no important data on your device I'd go for it. If you do have important data, then try and pull it to your computer and then flash a stock image and re root etc.
I always find that in times when my device is screwing around, or I have file dregs around the place, I find it simply easier to backup important things and flash a stock image.

[I9505] Recover files

Hello Guys. I'm desperate as yesterday i did try full wipe on my brother galaxy s4 via stock recovery and I did wipe whole phone including photos and videos. I'm so surprise as this never happened on my old s2. Now I'm trying to recover some files but s4 blocking access to those files. Phone is rooted running 4.3 Any advice please? How to remove those blocking system ? Please Please
how you want to access files that you have deleted

I believe there is option via for ex dr.fone software but unfortunatelly s4 blocking access. Wondering if I flash any non stock rom it will help
if they were stored on the internal and you formatted it, they are basically gone, as i don't think you can mount this in windows, you will only have limited access to certain files via the mtp interface.
if they were on your ext sd card, remove it and use a card reader to connect to your pc and try recovery software?
as have been deleted in stock Recovery I do not believe to be restored
Guys you both right. Still no luck on stock rom. Just wondering if I flash for ex SlimKat will I be able to mount internal storage? Thanks

This is part of how to install SlimKat
Reboot to recovery.
In recovery make a full wipe as per these instructions:
In CWM perform wipe data / factory reset and in mounts and storage section format system.
In TWRP choose advanced in wipe section and wipe dalvik cache, cache, system and data.
Flash SlimKat rom zip.
Flash SlimKat gapps zip.
Reboot, setup and enjoy.
What's up
You will delete,format again,wipe again

Need help with TWRP not showing internal storage files

Sorry ppl, need some spoon feeding. I have searched but to not avail.
I unlocked my 6p, flash TWRP and installed chroma rom + despairs kernel. All was fine in TWRP
But when I boot into the TWRP after installing my apps, it says password to decrypt and I skip that but allowing it to mod system files. Tried to install zip but internal storage shows 0mb. Can't seem to find my files in SD card folder
My phone is still encrypted.
Never experienced such issues with my nexus 6. Any help?
Chroma works perfectly
Make sure you have the latest version of TWRP for the 6p. Initially it only worked if you decrypted, but a few weeks ago a newer version was released that does not require decryption and will see your files.

First things first, try booting regardless, every time I flash the stock Oreo rom V20A, it says no os installed
(I recommend having an SD card to put the rom on) go to wipe and format your data, once having done that wipe everything Dalvik, Data, System, Cache. But not the SD card. Then after that, go to flash, select your SD card then flash the rom.

Internal Storage Decryption problem

Hi.
I have huge problem. I have Redmi Note 7 with xiaomi.eu (Last stable MIUI 10 version). Today I decided to update it to latest version (MIUI 11). Before it, I made backup via TWRP and then perform update. Update successfull. I thought that I prefer MIUI 10 so in TWRP perform wipe dalvic and cache and make restore backup. Backup succesfull. But... System wont boot up. In TWRP I cant see internal storage (0MB), TWRP ask for decryption password but the password from unlocking phone doesnt work. I dont know what to do. I dont want to lose my data. I found info that OrangeFOx recovery could be helpful so I flashed OrangeFox recovery. But it also ask for password.
Help please.

You're out of luck. You need to format your data partition - and you will lose your data and all the contents of your internal storage.

Is there any way to backup storage eg. via adb or something and try later to restore it?
EDIT
I performed wipe, install latest android. Data is gone. I found some windows apps to restore data after factory reset via adb. I'll try this in next week

Good luck!
PS: if your original MIUI 10 backup included /data, then you should be able to restore the data after formatting, flashing a fresh copy of the MIUI 10 ROM, booting the ROM, and then, booting back to recovery and restoring the data backup. But the content of your internal storage is gone forever (if you didn't back it up before).
Unfortunately I lost all my data (mainly photos). I'll buy microsd to store data and backups.
