I am looking at a DGS7002F model car radio from ownice with map/sim slot.
I was wondering if this map slot something special or Android recognizes it as external storage? or map card is not a normal sdcard?
Because I asked to seller if this device has an sdcard slot and the answer was that it DOES NOT have an sdcard slot, it has a map slot. The exact answer I got was "The item front panel only have sim card slot and map card slot, don't sd."
So if I push in an empty sdcard into that slot (assuming map card is an sdcard) I can't use it like normal external storage like with Android phones with sdcard slot?
Thanks!

Find another seller as this one doesn't sound like he has any clue. I can't say for your model specifically, but from previous experience the MAP slot usually works as an SD Card slot.
Actually, now I asked again and the answer is "You asked the model is 7002F, the map card is sd card, you also can use is as media card too." I think the problem is that the chinese people are very literal. I think they think that the map slot is different than sdcard slot, until somebody tells otherwise.
Anyway, the issue is resolved then, if you have map slot, you can use it for media storage. Which is what I wanted to know exactly.
Thanks for the response @aarick.

My galaxy tab fail to detect the internal sd and external sd card today. Don't know why.
The case is that:
if I use the application "my files" I have the following message
No SD card is inserted in your phone
in the the menu card and SD memory:
I have
Internal SD card
Total space not available
Space available not available
any possible action on:
Disassemble the SD card
Mount Sd Card
Format SD card
menus are dimmed
External SD card
Total space not available
Space available not available
any possible action on:
Disassemble the SD card
Format SD card
menus are dimmed
phone's internal storage can be shown as usual.
The above problem happened after backup all the apps (about 90 apps) into sd card (I am not sure which one) and then I shut down galaxy tab and put out the external sd card for copying some files. I returned the external sd card to the galaxy tab and switched it on. Then I found that it cannot detect the internal sd card and external sd card.
I had tried to hard reset it and still fail to solve the problem.
Help!
Anyone can help me?
I just got the phone for half day.

Weird thing, I got that same message today on my tab, but it was for a sec and disappeared.
However when i went inside the my files, all content and everything was ok.
Don't know why it gave that message.
Also i got the message for external sd card - not internal. (have a 32 gb one added).
I have exactly the same issue. I just got my today and have being going crazy on internet all day to try and find a solution to it...anybody has any idea on how to fix this...this is driving me crazy...

how to reformat internal sd card ?
Im also facing the same issue. Cant mount both my Internal Sd and External SD.
I had a related problem. My tab originally had no external SD card, but there was a folder in storage called "external_sd". This is where I've been putting my music etc.
Today I went to add and actual external SD card. Upon doing so, the file explorer on the device now shows the new external card as "external_sd", and its icon portrays an SD card rather than merely a folder.
Problem was, my original "external_sd" folder was now nowhere to be found.
However, upon mounting via USB, my PC detects both storage devices - the internal memory containing the "external_sd" folder, and the actual external SD card.
So on a hunch I renamed the "external_sd" folder on my internal memory to "internal_sd", unmounted, and low-and-behold, I can now see my "external_sd" card, and my "internal_sd" folder.
It seems like Samsung mistakenly named a folder "external_sd" and this name collides with the name of an actual external SD. I never questioned the name, I just assumed they included memory that was logically external, but physically internal. Seems instead they just had a dumb name for a folder.
...or something else I don't understand.

Hi,
I got a Galaxy Y from a friend and I was trying to MOD it. I discovered that the internal SD is not available... and no way to get it back. I tried to wipe data, hard reset, stock firmware upload with ODIN but no way to get the internal SD back. I tried ADB in order to try to push the ZIP files in a ROM folder but of course no permissions as it's not rooted.
So, no way to root my mobile without copying the files to the SD?
Thanks in advance
Joe
I dont know what you mean by internal sd - galaxy y 5360/6102 doesnt have internal sd - it uses a mico sd card to which you will find the slot if you take the cover off and look on the right hand side of the phone
place any files you want on the sd card either via card reader or usb cable
please note that questions should be asked in the question and answer section and NOT the general section

Thanks Marcus,
I did not know the mobile had no internal SD.
That's the kind of information that saves a lots of time and work!
Thanks again.

Ok,
I tried to use a Miscro SD on the GT-S5360 but there was no way to have it acccepted by the phone.
I formatted the Micro SD (Sandisk 2G) in many ways (full formatting) and it was mounted OK with all my other phones (Galaxy S, LG L5II, Huawei) but not for the Galaxy Y. I tried to format the card with the other Samsung too but it did not work..
I've read a lot around about the "blank SD" issue on many mobiles and tried some of the suggested tricks but with no luck.
So, assuming there is no way to have a MicroSD installed on the phone, I resume the original question:
- Is there any way to root the GT-S5630 without an SD card?
Thanks in advance
Joe
well unless your sd card slot is damaged there should be no reason why it shouldnt work
the sd card needs to be formatted in fat32
there best way to do it is to inset your sd card into your phone
goto phone settings
storage
unmount sd card (sd must be unmounted before you can format it)
format sd card
you can also format it via your pc using a card reader as long as its fat32 but its best to format it using the phone or format it again using the phone as sometimes cwm may have problems mounting the sd card if you use something else to format it
You might find universal root tools via google but the quickest most simple way is just to use a root zip file and flash it in recovery or cwm

Thanks Marcus, your replies are very quick .
I tried formatting the SD card FAT32 with different Allocation unit sizes, always full formatting, never quick.
The SD card is recognized as BLANK SD CARD (or unsupported filesystem) when inserted with the phone ON. The same occurs when I switch ON the phone with the SD card alredy inserted. The card is never mounted
The internal formatting functionality of the phone seems to be not working at all. The function FORMAT SD CARD is enabled but when launched it lasts just few seconds and nothing happens (the card is not mounted neither automatically nor by hand).
There could be some compatibility issues between the card and the phone and it could be worth to buy another SD to test the phone card reader again, but I'm not confident it will work.

allocation unit size is I think 16 kilobytes but just select default - quick format is fine if the card is not damaged
you can try using mini tool to delete the partition on the sd card and create a new one and format it to fat32
you can then try reformatting it on your phone after
Mini Tool Download

Thanks for your help Marcus,
I tried MiniTool, with both FAT and FAT32 (the card is a 2GB card) but the result is still the same: BLANK SD CARD.
I will try to buy a new one tomorrow and see if it makes any difference...
Thanks again

Ok I got a new MicroSD today and everything seems to work fine.
Thanks again Marcus.

Hey guys did anyone ever try putting a 256gb micro sd card in the s5 to see if it supports it?
yes it does. (bought it yesterday, sandisk).
Now.... my problem is: making the phone to See these 256GB as INTERNAL Storage. cause without this.... (imo) the phone is just a piece of ***ℂℝÅℙ***.
theoretically, the phone can support any size of SD card pretty much. And to the first reply, 6.0 usually asks you if you want the ext sd card to be used as internal storage.
Thanks very much.
I put my SD card into the tray of my s8 and I can't seem to get it to pick up the card, I seated it so it is flush with the tray. I also checked in twrp to see if I could mount it and it would not mount. I check the sd card on my computer and it works fine. I do not get the option to format or anything its as its not in the phone. I also tried moving my simcard to the second spot (where the sd card is supposed to be) to see if the sim card gets detected and it did.
What I have done so far:
Reseating sd card
cleaning pins on sd
trying sd card on another machine
move sim from slot 1 to slot 2/sd to see if there are pins to read stuff there.
Any suggestions?
