Thanks!

Cannot even imagine how you should be tied of this issue 8-)
[Galaxy S II General] fstof:
I dont get why this storage mount point thing is only done for the GS2.

Surely it should be the same as all the other devices with internal/external storage.

Am I over simplifying this? Or dont I understand something?
[Galaxy S II General] coversnail:
Yep, this build works. The correct storage descriptions are shown in the settings menu even if you switch.

CWM has the correct location for internal and external sd cards.

If you wanted to be really picky you can no longer unmount the external sd from the settings menu, but seeing as though you can't remove it without pulling the battery anyway, it's hardly a problem.
[Galaxy S II General] MilesTEG1:
Thanks :)

Can I have a md5 checksum please ?
[Galaxy S II General] cloud596:
my thought precisely because while booting since sdcard and emmc as standard

cm the apps and games which installed on sdcard become autounisntalled cause it confuse while start up sdcard not mounting,

so in my mind if sdcard inserted and act as default sdcard while there is no reason apss and games confuse on sdcard cause sdcard act as none removeable storage while start up.

Somebody once said : " The right thing to do is not always the best thing to do"

Go figure...
[Galaxy S II General] Molitro:
Funny thing with the MTP.

You plug the phone in, and you see internal storage and SD card correctly named, judging for the used/free space.

But when you actually click on one, the other one's files show.

As in, I click SD card, which shows 7 gigs used correctly. I click, and I'm showed the files in the internal memory instead.

But then, if I copy a file, it actually gets copied in the correct memory, though it was showing the other one's files xD

I don't know if the MTP is just crazed and a wipe of it's cache or something like that would repair this. I just find it very funny :p
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Try a couple reboots and report back

MTP is crazy sometimes, but I prefer it still

EDIT: All is well on my end with latest Codeworkx build
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Emmmm...

Using MTP file transfer both storage has the same name "Sd card"...

Think should be somehow different...

PS

Sorry, i am still on 22 build but not the last...

Will check with last
[Galaxy S II General] Molitro:
I cleared caches and rebooted a couple of times, but it is still crazy.

I'll wipe and do a fresh flash. With all the changed I'm probably just carrying stuff.
[Galaxy S II General] lrbpereira:
For me in this new build...

Emmc is still internal

Sdcard is still external

With the box ticked to internal storage...
[Galaxy S II General] iamnotkurtcobain:
Done a full wipe?
[Galaxy S II General] Joppers:
Now in the latest build the menu shows the correct data:

Internal storage 2GB

Internal storage 11,5GB

SD-card

But in ES File Explorer sd-card shows the internal 11,5GB, and emmc shows the SD-CARD.

Unticked ES File Explorer shows the correct data, but the menu is wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] MilesTEG1:
I flashed the lastest build given by codeworks, and I don't have 3G (HSPA) connexion... No logo...

Is that normal ?
[Galaxy S II General] coversnail:
The menu is right. The s2 has 2gb of internal phone memory, an internal sd and an external sd.

Sdcard is internal. Emmc is external.
[Galaxy S II General] MilesTEG1:
I've done a full wipe before flashing.

And I reboot my phone, and the 3G is back :D

Don't know why before it wasn't here...
[Galaxy S II General] churchi:
I have exactly the same issue as you do
[Galaxy S II General] MilesTEG1:
I had to reboot the phone to have 3G network... strange...
[Galaxy S II General] churchi:
Again same thing as you spotted. A reboot without the wi-fi enabled abd the H or 3G logo appeared and data is back.
[Galaxy S II General] tch123321:
everything is normal ~ lastest build

Can switch 2g/3g/wifi:D
[Galaxy S II General] lrbpereira:
Yes I have done a full wipe yesterday with 20th nightly.

Now:

Emmc . Internal

Sdcard . external

With box ticked to internal.

Is this normal? All runs great tough.
[Galaxy S II General] Molitro:
Did the wipe, now it's working as spected.
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Ok seems Nightly 4/22 is now perfect once again.

Storage "issues" are now behind us, we can go back to normal offtopic discussions now :D (not! :p)

Update-cm-9-20120422-NIGHTLY-galaxys2-signed.zip - http://db.tt/1DxjlgSl
[Galaxy S II General] luminus:
I can confirm that cm 12/04/22 works perfectly. Didn't do a wipe and all seems fine about sdcard-emmc issues.
[Galaxy S II General] Joppers:
So your Storage menu shows internal storage = 11,49GB

AND

ES (or other) File Explorer shows emmc = 11,49GB ?
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
Right. Today's my 30th birthday. (really) :)

..........

I hope they are making progress with the accelerometer & compass.
[Galaxy S II General] Vaedryn:
Gratulation to Birtday:)

Cyanogen (mod) 9
[Galaxy S II General] T!b:
Happy Birthday too ^^

Hope this update will be the one..

Cheers to all my french friends ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Kung-Fu-Tse:
Happe birthday :) but Im older :D

I hope this nightly is better :D it will ;)
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
again im haveing the same problem with all the builds after the 19.04...

the problem is that if the option is ticked the gallery works but the music not working

and if the option is not ticked the music works and gallery does not

both my music and photos are on the internal non removable sd card and i dont have an external one installed

why is that keep happening ?
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Which music app are you having this issue with?
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
google music and cm9 music apps just noticed another thing

most of my photos arent even loading i can see the thubnail but the photo itself doesnt load especially the old ones
[Galaxy S II General] FRLinux:
Storage working perfectly on latest build. That said, only have internal and no sdcard.
[Galaxy S II General] donkeyhitman:
Am I wrong to think that the last build is basically the way it was prior to this "emmc/sdcard" fiasco?

I have an external sdcard. I want apps (including camera) to be stored in the internal sd. I want to keep my media files (music/videos) separately in my external. Do I have to tick/untick anything?
[Galaxy S II General] eseregin:
Stop Music.apk, clear Data in Settings - Apps - Music
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
Nope, you don't have to do anything. That's the default behavior.. Exactly like the build before this storage fiasco :p
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
It should already be ticked by default now, take a picture with stock camera and check where it lands, then you would know for sure
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Full wipe time then.

Gallery and Google Music works fine here (i did a full wipe for this build also).
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
Eh? Another storm brewing? http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/14988/

:p
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
No it's not like it was prior.

Before:

Internal storage = /mnt/sdcard/

MicroSD storage = /mnt/emmc

Samsung MicroSD = /mnt/sdcard/external_sd

Now:

INternal storage = /mnt/emmc

MicroSD Storage = /mnt/sdcard

They have swapped places. Apps will be installed by default to /mnt/emmc since not everyone has a MicroSD card.

If you want the options to be switched - say your MicroSD card be "Internal" to save your Apps and Games then go to Settings - Storage - Menu - Storage Configuration and UNCHECK "Internal Storage". That option will then mount your MicroSD card as the internal one. and your Internal will become your "External"
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
i think ill just stick to the 19.04 update until stable or just switch to another rom :( looks like i need to deal with alot of problems with this rom
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Already included in 4/22 :) It's just so that the Settings - Storage area shows "internal" instead of having 2 "SD Cards" there.
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
You are wrong.
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
No need as I said, full wipe and you'll be good.

Then again this is a ROM in test phases so you can't expect everything to just work. If it would "just work" then it wouldn't be in testing phases anymore, it would be complete.
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
These are nightlies, comes with the territory ;)
[Galaxy S II General] Kung-Fu-Tse:
that's what I've said all along :rolleyes: :D
[Galaxy S II General] shotta35:
Umm wrong how again? :confused: If you are gonna tell someone they are wrong at least attempt to correct them so they don't go spreading "wrong" information.:rolleyes:

/offtpic rant

Hate people like that that's all smug knowing correct answers but don't tell the rest of us. I know some people just want X to work without knowing why or how but I think most people would like to be corrected if they are wrong with an explanation of "why" rather than just "You are wrong, just stfu and take my correct answer!":mad::p
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Not really like before.

In vold it's still switched, but because of that magic ticked box, it's like before.

The little different is, the box now does what it says and isn't reversed anymore.
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
In the latest nightly, by default:

Internal Storage: /mnt/sdcard

External SD: /mnt/emmc

Edit: And calm down bro :)

Cool! Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
i just did it and now everything works..

just i want to restore all my data is that possible to restore it from nandroid backup?

i mean to apps
[Galaxy S II General] Kung-Fu-Tse:
Servus D.H :)

so its better make Data/factory reset + wipe and install apps again?

Is this better?
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
...well thanks.

:cool::rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] donkeyhitman:
Yup, that's what I'm seeing...like before. And I did a full wipe. I even formatted the cards cause things got really cluttered with apps stored in both cards at the beginning of this confusion.
[Galaxy S II General] Vaedryn:
Well well well , i hope the crying is stop now.
[Galaxy S II General] CRudner:
Apps missing after reboot.

Hi There,

Just to make sure, does Nightly 22/04/12 fix the problem with the apps disappearing after reboot.

I looked at the change log, but I am not sure what I would be looking for to see the change.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II General] armanderli:
Seems like my MTP connexion is so confuse right now...UMS way to go....
[Galaxy S II General] Putzy:
@codeworkx - bit of an issue with the most recent nightly, MTP is always showing up blank... I'm not sure if that's because of me using a Mac or because it's getting the SD cards messed up (I don't have a physical micro SD in my phone).

Not wiped my phone since 19/04, not had any issues with anything until now. :)
[Galaxy S II General] churchi:
I don't believe you can restore individual apps from a nandroid backup (could be wrong, please correct if i am), however you should be able to use a program like Titanium Backup to restore them.
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Is your phone locked with a pin code or something?
[Galaxy S II General] melorib:
I am looking forward to buy an S3 and get rid of this CM9 theater :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] Putzy:
Nope. I'm doing exactly the same as before. The tick box in Storage is ticked so /sdcard is my internal storage.

Will see if I can get a micro SD into the phone and test. I think it's because MTP is looking into /emmc, but I don't know enough about the code to mess around to test it.
[Galaxy S II General] qubz:
Titanium Backup has extract from nandroid.
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
Flash stock samsung rom?

It's much cheaper than getting a new phone which also has a terrible ****ed up touchwiz rom.
[Galaxy S II General] jcasares:
So the change was not that useful as it requires a lot of other changes in places we don't have control (third party applications). Anyway, Galaxy Nexus also names the internal memory sdcard if what I read in the web is right. Then, I wonder if it was only a (wrong) Samsung decision or Google's as well (worse). They ultimately created a mess. :p

It seems to me it's the same as we used before (sdcard=internal and emmc=external). What's the point of the change then? Just asking. Don't get mad at me.
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
Right. Menu -> More -> Extract from a nandroid. (nandroid has to be in folder: internal/clockworkmod/Backup/)
[Galaxy S II General] luexi:
Hi,

i just flashed codework build for 22/4 at page 2705, and inside root explorer still show emmc as internal and SD as external? is it what it meant to be?

i am using air droid and it direct me to SD card which is in external. no way access back to internal storage. any guide?:confused:
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
I'm sure. Emmc stands for "embedded media memory card" not "external memory card" like people think

Emmc is internal
[Galaxy S II General] aydc:
Yeah.. I can imagine someone at Samsung looking at this debacle and saying "there's a reason we named the cards that way in the first place, dude". :)
[Galaxy S II General] giosoliman:
Can someone enlighten me?

I have the box unticked meaning my /emmc = internal and /sdcard = SD Card

Now. if I install an app, it will go directly to my external as it should. But what if i decide to move that app to my internal memory (move to phone option). Will it be saved onto my internal memory (1.97 GB) or internal memory (11.56 GB)?

If it is saved onto the 1.97 GB memory, what will I do with my 11.56 GB of memory? I only have an 8GB external memory card so I would like to use BOTH my 11.56 GB internal memory and 8GB external memory for storing apps? Is that possible?
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Emmc being external memory card is wrong. Emmc does not stand for external it stands for embedded, as in internally fixed. Therefore emmc is "internal" sdcard is "external" for want of a another word. What's the problem?

They would probably laugh at the mongoloids in general.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
If you want emmc as internal. Then you want it wrong. If you want it wrong. Revert to an older build. Or just get used to it being the way it should be. :banghead:
[Galaxy S II General] codeworkx:
just untick the checkbox. ;-)
[Galaxy S II General] netokee:
What news with the Compass Problem ??

It seems that this Problem with the Compass is not resolved in 20120422.

(See older post)

(and one stupid question : and one question : why is the NLB not included in the CM9 developement ??)
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Or do that! Ha
[Galaxy S II General] luexi:
what i did is to check the box, and restart the phone, now in airdroid i am able to browse the internal data and camera are saving to internal as well. on codework 22/4.

now for me is emmc = my micro sd

sd = internal storage
[Galaxy S II General] nanujra:
Do I need to wipe everything if I am upgrading from the 14th april nightly to the 22nd april one?

I ask because I am hoping that the reverting of the mount points back to the original in the latest nightly will spare me my second full wipe and restore in 2 days
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
You shouldn't have to.. But make a nandroid backup just in case!
[Galaxy S II General] donkeyhitman:
This nomencalture issue has been a pain to everyone including Cody. I for one still have not figured whether I have it right today.

I do want to follow CM standard and have emmc=internal and sdcard=external. I have the latest nightly with the tick and Astro is telling me emmc=external and sdcard=internal. Now I'm reading the suggestion about unticking to fix the cards' names but how will this "unticking" affect my goal to have my apps installed and stored in the internal sd? Or that is just not possible?
[Galaxy S II General] Quipper2008:
Which Nightly is newer?

Codeworkx or the official one?
[Galaxy S II General] bazzag:
Wondering the same. I'm still on the 13th build, about to install the 22th.
[Galaxy S II General] ghassir:
I dont think! a cache wipe in the fact.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
This thread had entered new realms of retardation since the fixing of storage. What is hard to understand.

Default. Emmc : embedded media card

SD card: optional external media card.

Media and files saves to emmc (embedded remember)

UnTick the box results in our files being saved on the "sdcard" not the phone (emmc)
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
Not possible. If you untick, apps will get stored on external SD.

Apps always go to /mnt/sdcard

With tick (default):

Internal = sdcard

External = emmc

Without tick:

Internal = emmc

External = sdcard
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
OMG! No! This is not correct.

EMMC - EMBEDDED

Pick box only determines which card your files save to as default. It doesny change he fact that EMMC is the INTERNAL card.
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
What I wrote is absolutely correct. You can check for yourself :)
[Galaxy S II General] aydc:
The fact that "E" in EMMC stands for "Embedded" doesn't mean anything. It can still be the external card. If it's mounted in the device, it can be considered embedded in a way.

The "S" in SDCARD means Secure (Secure Digital Card), but those cards aren't secure in any way.

Don't get so hung up on words.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
I have. Emmc is embedded. Not external. The tick box doesn't change name of the card. It changes the save destination. Emmc stays exactly that "embedded multimedia card"

This is ****ing retarded
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
Lol exactly :p

---------- Post added at 08:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:52 PM ----------

The tickbox DOES infact change mount points. And no, I'm not going to agree with you no matter what you say. Cause you are wrong :p
[Galaxy S II General] mkriedel:
Weird storage representtion

I've been following this thread, and I try to keep up as best I can. I know about the switch between /emmc and /sdcard, etc. I even reflashed my phone using the Resurrection ODIN tarball and went through the effort of setting everything up over again. I formatted both the internal and external storage, so I was back to a "new" phone.

In the process of doing that, I noticed something weird with the Android File Transfer tool on my Mac. It doesn't seem to represent the way things are actually laid out on the filesystem.

In the first two screenshots (emmc.png and internal.png), you can see an ADB shell view of the filesystem. "Music" and "Backup" are basically the only two folders on the external (32GB) MicroSD Card. The files listed in "internal.png" are actually on the internal SD Card. So all is good there.

However, if you look at the AFT screenshots, there's virtually nothing listed on "Internal" and everything listed on "External". The two red arrows point to the only actual files on the External card.

Is this weird, or is it just me?
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Nah people are going o get confused about all this ****. Emmc is supposed yo be internal. SD card external. Why keep hanging on about how to make emmc external when you can just use SD card.
[Galaxy S II General] luexi:
+1 for u,

what u say is right, i tried it myself, and now i have the box checked, for all apps, camera photo are now stored to in to my internal storage(which is in SD folder) airdroid can be access too. emmc folder now will remain for external optional SD card.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
It changes mount points YES. It foes jot change he Name of he card. Just the mount point.
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
And I was talking about mount points only.. :)
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Right. I'm talking about the default means emmc in the truest sense. People are saying they have the box ticked and emmc is external, which isn't correct. Sure you can untick the box and make it external. But by default its internal.
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
Please do not use medieval accent here. ;)
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
We're ALL just talking about mount points. When you tick, the SDcard mounts to /mnt/emmc
[Galaxy S II General] DAMAGE_INC29:
internal SD transfer

hi guys..anyone notice that copying/transferring files to the INTERNAL SD is very slow?mine is just 1.20 MB/sec?

very slow right?
[Galaxy S II General] coversnail:
I have the latest nightly from today. The box is ticked to use internal storage. Navigate to /emmc using root explorer. It's my EXTERNAL sdcard
[Galaxy S II General] DAMAGE_INC29:
i agree
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Nah not so sure about that. As stated my emmc is my phone memory. My SD is micro SD. Box is checked. Unchecked its the other way round.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
I'm from Isenguard. Didn't you know?
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
Then either you're not on the latest nightly, or you have to do a factory reset. By default, the box is ticked, and External SD Card mounts to /mnt/emmc
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Looks like I need a factory reset then. Why isn't emmc by default the internal card if thats what it means anyway. Its retarded.
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
It's because apps can only go on /mnt/sdcard, no matter which physical card that points to.
[Galaxy S II General] donkeyhitman:
Why are you keep disputing what our File Managers are saying? Are you thinking that we're blind? Kalpik's right, you're probably not on the latest.
[Galaxy S II General] confusedmuse:
I think it would be best to name both storages "external_or_internal_storage" lol
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
I am. What do you I think I am blind? Just because I'm not agreeing with you and kissing your balls doesn't mean you have to take offence. I'm reporting what MY file manager is saying. Again, do you think that I'm blind? Because I CAN see my OWN file manager, what I'm saying is right. My phone might not be.

Don't taken it so to heart. This is a forum about phones.
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
So when I'm flashing from my internal in cwm it says its flashing from emmc though.

[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
Yes, in recovery it's the other way.. As codeworx mentioned that in vold it's mounted as /mnt/emmc :)
[Galaxy S II General] BrandoHD:
Your answer is below
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Right. That's where my confusion came from. So unchecking it. Makes it so files are automatically saved to internal storage.
[Galaxy S II General] kalpik:
If you uncheck the box, the Internal Storage will get mounted at /mnt/emmc, yes. But then the apps will go to the External SD card :)
[Galaxy S II General] digeddydogg:
Ha. Right. I'm actually quite smart (doing a masters degree) but this has well and truly ****ed my brain today.
