Memory Card Corrupt - Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 Questions & Answers

After restarting my phone I see a notification that said memory storage is corrupt. https://ibb.co/ijD8az
Luckily I had all the data backup on my PC.
Don't rely on memory card storage, don't store important data, if u do make sure u have a backup elsewhere.

Internal Storage Full but isnt.

last nite i was copying a file over to the storage card (the internal 16mb) of my m1000 but the unit crashed for some reason (battery was quite low so may be a reason)
now the device thinks that the storage is full 100% even though the file manager shows it as only having the backup folder and a history file. certainly not 16mb worth.
now my machine cant do the perminant backup on boot and since you cant specify what drive to backup on is a bit of a pain.
system mechanic cannot format that drive. hard reset makes no difference.
any ideas?
clean up...
check your storage card holder.. blow it or clean it.. if still desame you need to open it up.. its the storage card holder.. u can try pressing the mem card up down up down.. and blow it.. try it.
nono its the internal storage. the 16mb built in non volatile memory. my external sd card is fine

Swap Internal and External storage

Hi, friends please can anyone guide me how can I swap internal and external storage on YU. Currently all the data like games data, WhatsApp data are saved in internal memory and are lost with phone format.
u can take backup of the obbs & other data via MTP. If rooted, use titanium backup to save game & apps data of the current state which u can later restore after formatting. Save the backups on ext. SDcard or a PC for safety reasons.
Honestly, i have no idea, whether u can swap internal & external storage.

You can try this app (requires root access)
Root External to Internal
http://download.downloads.ws/app/41392
Works on Samsung devices, haven't tried it on Yureka yet.
Look for the port number of mmc in settings.
Fill up proper paths for swapping (use root explorer for finding paths)
& swap it.
If it works fine, then only tick on [on boot] option.
Currently I am using Folder Mount
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en
for using/storing game data from mmc in Yureka.

internal storage twrp

so i opted for the 16gb moto pure and am now getting no available storage when trying to download a app in the play store. After looking into what is taking up all my space it seems twrp is 4.25 gigs. Is there anyway to have that on the sd card? I have never had this problem on older phones that were 16gigs with a sd card.
When you're in TWRP and doing a backup (Nandroid), there is the option that says "Storage: Internal Storage". If you click on that, you can change it to your external SD card. In the mean time, you can copy the backup folder from your device storage to your external storage. If there isn't a folder called TWRP yet, you can make it (or cut & paste the entire TWRP folder on your device to the SD card). Or you can just do a new Nandroid and see how it works. It usually takes a few minutes longer to backup to your SD card compared to your internal storage.
Normally, pre backup, your TWRP folder should be VERY small.
You can change your storage when flashing ROMs or apps, depending on where you've stored them... Also, if you ever restore a backup and freak out because you can't find it, make sure you have the proper storage selected.

I hadn't used TWRP in ages. I got my phone yesterday and inadvertently backed up to my internal card. I went back in and then saw the option to choose my external card. I ran another backup to the external card and I was amazed that the backup took less time going to my external card than it did to my internal card. I don't mean a little faster, it was quite faster. You would think the internal would be much faster.

What are these files in TWRP?

Are these files safe to delete? I was under the impression that with this being a 16gb phone I wouldn't be fighting for internal storage space after owning the phone just a few days and less than 10 installed apps.
Looks like your own backups... your internal storage wouldn't be full if you bothered to use a sd card.
If one does have an external SD card, I don't recall if TWRP defaults to storing there or if you need to select external SD - something to check on for TWRP newbies.

I've found TWRP to usually default to internal storage on every run, but once you set up the path/naming for your backups it usually sticks.
It seems like you are toying around with TWRP, possibly attempting to get ready to flash a custom rom. Given half the storage is system files, you'd barely be able to backup said default files to internal storage without running out of space.
You could always backup these files to a computer, delete them from the phone to free up enough space to download a rom (of which you should verify the md5 checksum), and hope everything goes perfectly.
If anything goes wrong, you'll need access to a computer and either use some advanced fastboot commands or.. an sd card, which you can easily swap on to a computer to download custom roms or backup files.
I would recommend getting a micro SD card for TWRP backups to avoid being fully dependent on a PC or internal storage. I like to have at least two TWRP backups on my micro SD. I know this phone works with 128GB - not sure about larger.

How to recover photos after formatted SD as internal storage?

Hello, i own Xiaomi Mi A1 with rooted Android 8.1.0 and i got 32GB Samsung SD Card.
I was using it as internal storage, i wanted to get rid of it to make space for another SIM.
I made sure that there are no apps - Moved everything to internal space.
I checked usage of SD card and there were only system and apps, a said fine, i am ok with deleting and reisntall some apps.
So i formatted the SD card ("Use as external storage")
And then i noticed all my pictures are gone. If i am right, when you use SD card as internal storage, device encrypts the card, then it was formatted.
I immediately took card out of phone. I am still own this device, so is there any way to recover encryption key or something?
Now i am tryin recover files with app PhotoRec, but it doesn't seems to get any files.
Any idea how to get photos back? I don't have updated backup of Google Photos.
Sorry but you have no hope, did they not backup to google photos or did you not have that turned on.
So there is no way to recover content of card and then decrypte?
I did not turn that on intentionally, i thought i am smart enough not to do such a stupid stepwithout backup, lol.
EDL Mode
I had the same problem. I only managed to solve via EDL Mode. On youtube there are several videos teaching how to do it.
