Internal Storage ? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hello Guys,
I did a hard reset my Diamond and installed on it Elite 2.0
I then noticed that anything I placed in the internal storage was not deleted after the hard reset.
Can someone explain this to me ?
what's the difference ?
where should I install the softwares I want ?
thanks a lot guys.

You can install software wherever you want - but some may not work properly after hard reset as it need registry keys etc ... . Internal Storage is not erased after hard reset. It`s because of lack of microdrive slot so you can make your backups to internal storage when are you going to do hard reset. If you want to clean Internal Storage you can do it from Settings menu.
And finally if you used search you could find all this info here as this was mentioned several times.

[Q] Recover data from internal storage

Please does anybody know what´s the best program to recover data from internal storage?? It´s very strange, but after flashing new ROM my internal storage is totally clear - I lost 3,5GB of data
I tried Power Data Recovery - that works, but it found only half of lost files..
My backups from PIM backup were also stored on there so how to recover it??
Thx for your help I´m an idiot - I left my backup only there n didn´t copy to PC
I never make and backups.. and after flashing the device all the data on internall storage remains intact.. as it should be.. Flashing shouldnt have to do anything with your internal storage..

Some HardSPL have the possibility to clear Internal Storage as well. When you perform Hard Reset procedure: just after you press 3 magic keys and get color boot screen, you get the gray backround with the message like: "Press VolUp to reset (or resume defaults) the device"..
I guess Olinex SPL got second one: Press VolDown to reset and clear the InternalStorage...
I guess this may be the problem.

Thx man I´ll try it...for me is most important to recover some jpg photos and PIM backups files. By "Power data recovery" I found 70% of all lost data, but most of the pictures-photos are corrupted n I don´t know how to fix them.
Edited: Yes this issue with HardSPL I probably have, ´cause like I wrote, after flashin new ROM the phone after first launch n installin all of apps reseted itself n the process was simillar like when you do Hard reset manually - after restart it wanted to press vol up to boot - that means it made Hard reset I think n I couldn´t stop it)))
Edited: So I tried about 5 programs n did number of scans with the same results - 372 files found, but at least two thirds of them are corrupted or damaged so can´t be recovered..unfortunatelly most of the "health" files are mp3s n its´ tags (pictures) n that´s all (theese i got in my pc), all 48 wallpapers (also got in my pc), but only 3 photos n no backup file...I´m f....ing IDIOT that I never backed up these files to my pc
Thanks guys for your answer))
I have a similar problem - I've lost important data from my Diamond. I've tried recovering it with few programms (Easy Recovery, Power Data Back) and they've found most of lost files from Main Storage. But the problem is that these programms don't detect Internal Storage, so I can't even try recovering my data from it...Is there any way to make the programms see Internal Storage (if yes, which..?) or maybe I should change sth in settings of Internal Storage?
2months before i accidantly formated internal storage.
tried wih few apps(o&o,norton...) result was almost 0
than i installed recover my files and i succed to recover almost ecerything.,so try with this app,hope i helped.
Thanx, it's seems to be a great programm, but still it detects only my computer's drivers, it doesn't detect Internal Storage. Can you describe more precisely what've you done?
Damn...
OK we all make mistakes but yes me too I cleared the 4gb drive when conected to my PC thinking it was my usb pen drive DOH!
but i recovered 85% using EASEUS data recovery software worked a beaut...
goodluck and hope u get ure files back.

when connecting diamond to pc choose disk drive,than app should see internal storage.
good help!!

Strange problem with disk space on Diamond

Hello everyone. I have discovered a strange problem on my Diamond. When I try to transfer something to Internal Storage from the PC (a MP3 file , for example - a very small one) I get the "NOT ENOUGHT STORAGE SPACE" error on my device.
I have checked the properties in the Diamond, and apparently the 4GB disk drive is recognized properly (i have 3 gb of memory free).
I tried to flash another stock WM 6.1 ROM and a hard reset, with the stylus, but no luck.
Do you know what could be wrong ? And how can i fix it. Thanks!
nobody ? its very annoying, because i cannot transfer anything to my device.
have you tried on another computer ?
also try hard resetting along with formatting your internal storage aswell....you get an option for that in the hardreset menu.
or u can go to the settings and format your internal storage from there
just try
thanks for your reply.
i tried on 2 computers, but same thing happened.
i will give it a try with the internal storage format, and later today i will post the results. thanks!
clear your browser cache, cookes, and history. Fixed my low storage memory problem.

Format Internal Storage

Hi guys,
I think i accidently formated my whole internal storage, i did a hard reset and accidently click return to manufacters settings.
Now i have not one thing in my internal storage and i was just wondering if someone could post up the default folders that usually are there for me so i can make it look like it use to.
thanks,
luke
If you returned to the manufacturers settings, then everything should have gone back to default. All the default folders should be there.
ohk, i dont know what i did then cause theres not 1 folder in internal storage.
Then do a hard reset AND reformat, and you will get all beck - except the data....
for someone else can help this hotfix directly from HTC>

Memory corrupt?

On Friday I flashed new Morna ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469852). Everythig was ok, I've installed all my apps. But in the evening it hang up, only hard reset helped.
Then something happend: my device hard reset or hang up (is does not load then, only hard reset helps) every time when program storage memory (not internal storage) remain about 50mb. I've tried to update everything: ROM, Radio... Nothing...
May be program storage memory corrupted? Is there any tool to diagnostic and repair it?
Post in ROM thread...
You should post this in the thread where you got your ROM, you'll probably get more specified help there.
You can try clearing the internal storage. I had to do this once because a ROM was acting strangely. Why internal storage should affect the ROM I don't know, but it fixed my device.
Start - Settings - System tab - Clear Storage - Select 'Format internal storage only' from the drop-dowm list

My Internal Memory gone MIA?

I already searched the forums and found a few threads of other people suddenly missing their internal memory. The only solution i found was installing some hotfix and then doing some sort of wipe. This was ment for one specific version of the Diamond and i don't which one i got.
Anyways i have an exchange sync with a policy to use a keylock. Somehow in my pocket it sometimes tries to unlock and fails, thus enforcing the exchange policy of wiping my device It happened twice btw, and i did find a registry hack to disable it - but that's not the point in this post.
Anyways I can't see my internal memory - only the 100Mb default storage. Both on the phone and on PC link - the full 4Gb is missing.
What should i do?
if it doesnt appear even after wiping which i presume you mean to be a hard reset, then first try flashing a stock ROM. If that still doesnt work then do a hard reset selecting volume up to format NAND flash (which is your internal storage).
Thanks Supersanj - i finally remembered i posted a question here and after almost 2 months i pulled myself together and did a hard nand reset That wasn't too hard and it seems it solved the problem
