Allready tried to reformat it from the diamond? If this not work, perhaps this tool can help: http://flash-format.en.softonic.com/pocketpc
If both fails it is really dangerous to have a corrupt file-system on the diamond.

Thanks for the tip!
I traied to format whith the diamond but it says that its missing nand flash?
Take a look, if the internal storage has the same name as before. If not, perhaps you can rename it from the pc via active-sync. Good luck!
Nobody else with an idea about this? If nothing works for the threadstarter, this means: as soon as the FAT of your internal storage gets corrupt, (whyever) you have bricked your device more or less, (at least reduced the memory to a laughable tiny amount).
If this is the case, it can only be a very, very bad joke of HTC. It's like you have a big button in Windows Vista wich destroys your harddisk and nowhere is a warning sign or a safety-mechanism - that can't be true, or? (Its not a good example, cause you can exchange a PC's harddisk).
I think there are a lot of reasons, why a FAT can get corupted. (Tools on the PDA, sudden power-loss) and I'am wondering if no one here is a little bit concerned about this.
I've used the 2GB SD-card in my last PDA over a long period and during this, it was several times corrupted, so that I had to reformat it.
In the German PPC-Welt forum someone has posted the same issue, he returned his device, but this is only possible in the first two weeks, at least in Germany.
1. When you hard reset you have the option to format Internal Storage.
2. You have the option to format Internal Storage in Clear Storage in settings.

He can only format the storage, if it is found by the device. Obviousley this is not the case. Perhaps renaming helps. In this (German) thread, the same problem has been discussed: http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?t=133023&highlight=fat32
Finaly ther user in this thread was able to format the storage but it was still not correctly recognized by his apps.
I hope the creator of this thread has more luck.
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..

I know I did it manytimes...but this time after rebooting and standard first launch it rebooted again n started the same process again
So I lost all data n really don´t know what it caused...is there any way to recover it??
Dont know for shure.. I tryed recovering few times data from my hard drive.. but I never recovered more than 20% of data..
You can try if you like with this app... http://www.r-studio.com/

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.

KSPVs
when connecting diamond to pc choose disk drive,than app should see internal storage.
good help!!
Hi does any one know how to skip bad block on 4gb internal memory of our diamond. I've been searching for a solution but haven't found one that actually fix my problem.
Before this bad block happend to my device it was working fine. It all started when I loaded haret from xdandroid. It works fine on my device for the first few tries and afterwards It wont work.. so I keep on reinstalling xdandroid and fixes the problem after many many tries.. I've notice that files that I save on my internal memory gets corrupted. Images becomes distorted documents got messed up and apps won't install.. this is where it all started.. I've tried alot of solutions. formating using panasonic sd formater, formating from the device, formating using windows, bet problem is still there.. also one thing I've notice on HSPL 1.93 the internal memory format wont work but for HSPL 1.38 it's working ok.
I know that the 4gb internal memory in our diamond is a nand and I'm trying to find a tool or a way that can help us skip or fix badblocks or on our diamond to have the internal memory working properly again. I have found an article regarding nand. I know that there is a samsung nand that is found in our device, if im not mistaken. I found an artice that says that there is 2 basic algorithm in our device the skip and reserve block method. My problem is how to do this on diamond or is this posible on our device.
http://www.data-io.com/pdf/NAND/DataIO/NandProgramming.pdf
Here's the link of the artice that I've found while searching for a solution. Please help is someone know how to do this.

I didnt think you could skip blocks on NAND
Have you tried linux > delete the full partition > create a new
Haven't tried partitioning since I don't have linux and still not familiar with linux emulators.. will try to check this if it will resolve this issue.. do you have a link on how to do this on virtual linux machine?
Please help!
Anyone having issues with corrupted files on their 4 GB internal memory? Please help! I’ve tried to do info 8 on MTTY and it's not showing any bad blocks on my internal memory. I'm really lost on how to resolve this problem that I am experiencing.
mtty is for your nand (doesn´t fix bad blocks though as far as I know) ... if you have corrupted files on your internal storage; back all the stuff up and format fat 32 with hp formatting tool. that´s it.
"It all started when I loaded haret from xdandroid." - that is what started the problem ... hp tool is the key - you can find it in the xdandroid thread
cheers ede
Tried almost everything.. My internal memory still is unsuable.. it can still be detected by my diamond and as a storage device. What I noticed is that pictures, videos and apps gets corrupted. Document files still can be viewed..
What am i gonna doo....
I have an international i9000 that seems to be pretty solidly soft-bricked. I've recently moved back to Canada from the Middle East and was trying to enable to 850 band so I could use it with Bell. I was under the impression that the Bell SGS and the international SGS were basically the same hardware so I flashed (ODIN) a PDA/PHONE/CSC designed for the i9000m. At the time I was on the teamhacksung ICS.
Now, regardless of what I do I always end up in basically the same spot. After my most recent flash through Heimdall, following the first reboot I end up in 3e recovery with the following errors...
---------
E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount /sdcard
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Data wipe failed
---------
I've been at this for 2 days and tried pretty much everything. Flashed through Odin and Heimdall as well as from recovery off an external SD. I tried 1-click de-brick. I tried to re-partition through ADB. I get various messages in ADB depending on what I'm doing. Sometimes it's I/O errors and sometimes it says "unrecognized disk label".
I can get to recovery and download so it seems like it should be solvable. My impression is that the partition table or structure on the internal SD card has been corrupted.
Sorry if there is already a thread for this with a simple answer, I've been through a ton and couldn't find anything that worked for me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm not an expert in shell but I can follow instructions. Happy to try anything at this point.
Thanks
Exactly the same issue here, so I'll just wait for a solution here.
I think I saw this problems before. Have u backed up all your data? If yes then do this 3 ways below. If you haven't backed up yet, try to do Nandroid backup from recovery mode and restore it later.
Now try this:
1. On recovery mode: wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, in advance-wipe Dalvik cache.
2. Remove your external sd card ( put it back later if everything's fine ).
3: Set the USB debugging ON, settings-applications-development.
Hope this helps. If it does, please consider 'THANKS' button
At this point it doesn't boot into Android. It was looping for a while but now the boot animation will start, then the screen will go black and the back/options LEDs at the bottom come on. Anything on the phone is long gone after multiple wipes/flashes/etc. I'm not worried about that.
I'm pretty sure it's a problem with the partition on the internal SD. Does anyone know how to reset/repair the partition table and rebuild the partitions from ADB? Why doesn't that happen automatically when I flash from Odin/Heimdall? Isn't that the point of the "partition" toggle?
Or, could I try to convert the file system as if I were moving from a stock ROM to something like CM7 (ie...RFS to EXT4)? Would that recreate the partitions and fix this?
Thanks
Have you tried to flash a stock samsung firmware for your phone (i9000) and re partition using a 512 pit file via Odin? Have a read of the following thread below to get the latest Stock firmware for (i9000).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1102881
Yep, I've tried several of these across froyo/gingerbread and always end up with an unmountable internal SD card. Just for fun I went and picked another one basically at random (JV6 2.3.3) and it flashed as normal and dumped me at recovery with the mounting sd card/storage not prepared error.
Are there really no takers on this? I keep reading that these are un-brickable if they still start up.
This might be worth a try, failing that you might have to take the phone to a Samsung repair agent.

i read about this problem before on darkyrom i think there was a way to bypass corrupt internal sd and use external one go check there its worth a try

Hi!
I had the same problem with my i9000. I have moved /data to external SD card and everything is working now (on ICS).
I have created a manual for solving this issue. Please click "helped" and/or ads, if this helped at least a bit.

I've the same problem and I've tried everything. Not I'm sure that the internal memory is broken, so I want to use the external sd as internal memory. I'm following your manual but I can't get it to work. I tell you what I've done:
1) I've formated the external sdcard with two partitions: one of 6 GB in vfat format and the other of 8GB in reiserfs. It seems to be ok.
2) I've tried to flash with odin the JVU 2.3.6 version. Here I've some questions: Shall I check re-partition? And apply the PIT file? I've tried all combinations but I still doesn't use the external memory and I get the mmcblk0p2 error...
Any help?
Here I have posted how I have solved my problem of corrupt internal memory. Look at it and I hope someone will help.
This guide install rom to SD Card, but still have question, how to repair internal memory? i`l boot`ed rom from SD Card, but cant see internal memory, use camera, etc. who need internal memory...
Maybe are any app to fix internal memory, when android boot`ed?
In most cases I have met (including Galaxy Tab P1000 and GT-i9003) with internal memory failure or corrupted memory, the only solution is to replace the chip. If you've booted your terminal and can not use the camera or see the internal storage, you have to modify the file vold.fstab according to your android version.
hello!
i have an i9000 that produces this error after flashing stock. and is stuck on a boot loop.
i believe* the internal SD is damaged.
i think there was a good (and understandable) guide on how to make the phone running from the external SD card (using ADB to swap the lines in /etc/vold.fstab)
tried to search for it but with no luck.
made me think maybe i was wrong and this wasn't covered? found hacks swapping the Internal & external storage, but they assume the phone is working, and doesn't contain detailed explanation. with all the info here it should be possible to run it from the external SD without a problem.
* reasons that makes me believe the internal SD is damaged is that just before the phone got stuck on boot loop, all apps / photos were erased on every reboot, until it stopped loading up.
plus, i already tried all the flashing stock, wiping data, complete SD card format and flashing .pit.... basically everything i found, and it didn't work.

I got this one as well but in my case this happened when I was flashing from stock 2.3.6 to CM9. I found on the net that I should flash twice. I tried and it resolved the issue. Hope it helps.
