So, I can't access the internal storage on my phone through a pc after flashing AOKP and their custom recovery, from AICP and TWRP. Just keeps insisting my phone is empty, tried using the phones browser to download opengapps (what I was about to put on my internal storage to flash). No luck there and I can't give permission for the browser to use storage as it crashes when I try... To reach this point I came from AICP using TWRP and flashed the new (AOKP) recovery using chainfire's flashfire, then I messed up booting the new recovery and installing the new rom over the old one instead of wiping the system first causing the phone's applications like UI to crash and unusable. So I then went back to the recovery and wiped the system, downloaded the rom to my pc and tried and failed to copy it over (internal storage isn't there). Using minimal adb and fastboot (which wasn't working properly with my phone; adb could detect the device but then trying to deliver any fastboot commands it just says 'waiting for device' with no device being detected while in fastboot mode or recovery, I managed to sideload the rom and launched it up and now although the phone's stable and not crashing the internal storage still isn't showing up and this is when I found out trying to give storage permission crashes the app I'm giving permission to. Can anyone shed some light onto how to fix this? Been here before after a new flash but cannot remember for the life of me how I fixed it and even then it took hours of messing around. I've tried uninstalling the drivers and reinstalling, all states the phone can be in (bootoader, recovery, system) and uninstalling the drivers rebooting the pc and phone and reinstalling the device. All to no avail... Scratch that, factory reset and wiped the cache again and the storage has miraculously reappeared sorry for taking up space haha

I'm having trouble with my nexus7. When booting, it shows the android and a START. The only thing it lets me to is RESTART BOOTLOADER.
START or RECOVERY gives a message BOOTING FAILED.
Cannot re flash the stock recovery (doesn't work in adb, nexus7 toolkit)
I can flash a temp recovery and they tell me that nothing will mount. sdcard, system, cache, nothing. They also say INTERNAL SPACE 0MB.
I was changing kernels and it bootlooped. Then trying to restore in recovery, the whole internet storage has gone missing.
Is there any way to remount the storage? Maybe it's dead... I have a spare parts nexus 7.. is there any way to take the storage out and place it in this one?
Thank you. ahhh.
My Nexus 4 is not recognized by any PC anymore... Tried 10 different cables and 5 different computers.
It is charging while connected to a PC, just no ADB/USB storage.
Anyway, I flashed Lollipop factory through CWM and everything was fine, but still the same with the USB.
I flashed TWRP recovery and flashed Lollipop from there, again, all good except the USB not being recognized.
I chose "Fix permissions" in TWRP -> reboot took forever -> Reflashed Lollipop -> Device booted fine -> NO Internal Memory anymore.
Used multiple file explorers - the sd card folder is empty. Tried browsing through mounted/0, legacy, sdcard, mnt/sdcard, etc... nothing.
If I use the File Browser on TWRP, I can see all my files so nothing is deleted.
I assume the SD Card's permissions are screwed or it's not mounted...
Status:
* I can't download any other ROMs (as now my Internal memory is basically not recognized by Android).
* I can't move files to the SD card from my PC as my USB port is probably broken
* I have a running Lollipop system with the latest bootloader, radio and a TWRP recovery so I can use its terminal for some commands.
Is it safe to say my device is dead or someone have any idea how to at least fix the SD Card mount issue?
Thanks!

I'll try. Is it any different than wipe using the recovery?

As per my understanding, factory data reset does all the wipe in one touch instead of doing one by one

I did full wipe, including dalvik. Anyway, I'll try it and update ASAP.
Thanks
Didn't help. My device is now stuck in boot loop and now I don't have a ROM to flash as the full wipe clears the SD card.
Just a quick check to eliminate drivers issue may help...Connect the phone to your PC with the usb cable, then go to Device Manager on the PC and see if your phone shows up. If it does with a yellow exclamation mark, you need to install/reinstall the usb driver.
Same problem here
I know this is an old question but I have the same problem as liorry does. I currently installed a new ROM on my N4 (SimpleAOSP), after a lot of tweaking it ended up working but now I cannot access the /sdcard folder via any app or via windows. If I go to recovery I can still see the folder is there and has all the data I had before. Does anyone have any idea on what can I do?, I think I can roll back to my previus kitkat based ROM but have not tried yet because I dont want to screw up the phone.
Suggestions are appreciated!
So I successfully Flashed TWRP on my Galaxy Tab A SMT580. Two issues I'm experiencing tho....
1.) TWRP is unable to mount my internal storage which shows as 0MB. Thus I obviously have no ROM I can boot into. It reads and mounts my SD card and the correct size shows up. Unfortunately I have nothing on my SD card and I can't get ADB Sideload to work.
2.) Which brings me to my next issue whenever I do attempt to boot it says failure to verify. Which is fixed by flashing that DM-Verity zip file. But I can't since it's not on my SD card and, ADB Sideload won't work.
Any thoughts on how to fix these two issues.
I feel stupid having forgotten to put the file on my SD Card prior to flashing TWRP

By default, the data partition on the T580 is encrypted. In order to install a custom ROM, you must first format that partition. Click wipe then format data, type in "yes" and when it finishes, reboot to recovery. Your internal storage should no longer show 0mb.
ok that worked, my internal storage is now mounted, but my SD Card is not. Now I just need to figure out how to get the custom ROM files and the DM Verity file onto my internal storage.
how can I just flash the tablet back to stock recovery and ROM
so I got everything working, I didn't need to flash a rom, it booted to the stock rom, ony issue that remains, is for some reason the WIFI will no longer turn on. When I tap on it in settings to turn it on, it just says its turning on, but never actually turns on. Just hangs there. I can't figure out what to do
anyone ? I really need to get this fixed...should I reflash the stock rom using ODIN, maybe a fresh install will fix it ?
Also, when I plug my tablet into the laptop, it says connected device cannot access data, and the tablet doesn't show up on the laptop, so I have no way to transfer files or anything. It does show up on ADB, I thought about trying to push the files that way, but not sure if thats possible, been a long time since I used ADB.
Hi Guys,
It's all in the title really, I have tried rolling back from the latest MIUI stable rom 20.1.9_v11-10 to my previously run V11.0.2.0 , this got my phone (mi9t) stuck in a bootloop. After going into recovery mode, I have realized the internal storage folders are all messed up, with the folders names showing in an odd combination of number and letters (Something like: 9KJJGDKJ).
The phone still mounts via USB to the laptop, by I'm unable to transfer any files to the internal storage. And as such, I'm currently unable to flash it with a ROM.
I'd appreciate any advice on this, hopefully one that would also help me salvage the files and data I have on my internal storage.

For backup have you tried running adb command "adb pull /sdcard _(here specify any location in your pc such as C:\x\) from CMD when in TWRP? And for flashing ROM you can use "adb push (ROM zip location and destination such as C:\x\anyrom.zip /sdcard/)" and flash ROM .zip from your sdcard root in TWRP AFTER factory reset and wipe system from TWRP. Remember factory reset will erase your internal storage. Hope it helps. Good luck.

Well, it looks like you phone is encrypted and the only way is to format data, and did you format data before doing the downgrade?
Do you have TWRP?
You need to format data, internal memory encrypted.
Boot to TWRP
Format DATA
Reboot to TWRP
Transfer xiaomi.eu rom and flash
Reboot

I would try another recovery, sounds like something is corrupt with the twrp version. Have you tried Orangefox?
I had the same problem. Only thing that works is formatting data. A different twrp wont work. I tried 3 different versions all the same.
Thanks guys, already formatted my sd card yesterday and then I was able to re-flash the Android Q update.
My data is lost tho. Thank you all for your input here.

Hi all,
Recently it's been restarting every once in a while.
I have TWRP installed, so I went into recovery mode and factory data reset my device to start fresh of course backing up all my data.
But me being the cleverclogs went into Wipe -> Advanced Wipe and selected all the boxes thinking it will do a proper cleanout (Dalvik/ART Cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, Cache, Micro SDCard). But when I try to reboot it there's a msg saying "No OS installed! Are you sure you wish to power off?".
When restarting the phone it just goes back to ASUS IN SERCH OF INCREDIBLE
How can I install the stock ROM or I might even try custom ROMS (any recommendations?). I haven't installed a custom ROM since the Samsung Galaxy II days so I'm a complete noob again.
I have two Rom in the Internal Memory, one Asus stock and one of LianogenOS 16, but when trying to install, in both they give me the same error, MD5 NOT FOUND
I have copied the two ROMs into a micro SD, but it is not shown with the TWRT File Explorer
I am trying to send a ROM to Internal Memory with ADB push from Minimal Adb but it gives me an error.
Maybe I could install an .img ROM from Fastboot Mode?
Where can I find any?
Thanks for your help.
