Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
Most of these cases are, that a bad disconnect from your PC leads to a corrupted file-system. You need rootsh from extras repository installed through your application manager for this to work:
Code:

sudo gainroot
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs

The second command should give you an error, you might neglect.
Feel free to ask if more errors show up.

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
Sorry for being so late, busy week...
After you installed rootsh, open X-Terminal application. After each line of code hit the enter button.
Become root by typing either
Code:

root
or
Code:

sudo gainroot
To be sure nothing is mounted type
Code:

umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
Note: This is spelled MMCBLK0P1 but each letter is written small, also note: there might be an error, which is however fine.

After being sure the partition is not mounted, perform the actual file-system check by typing
Code:

fsck -af /dev/mmcblk0p1
If strange output arises new questions feel free to ask here.

If no further errors occur, mount the partition
Code:

mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs
Hope it helps!

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
I do what u said but nothing change the same problem! !!!!!! Do u have another solution like do software or something else

michaaa62 2011-05-28 11:45

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
Was there any error message in X-Terminal?
Did you try to reboot the phone?
Is there anything of value that you need to recover, or would 'just' a fresh new file system could make your day???

twister5 2011-05-28 12:25

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
No there isnt errors just like u said .. And i reboot mey phone also .. And i couldn't understand ur last line ... But just i need it work by anyway

michaaa62 2011-05-28 12:32

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
Is there something important stored on your MyDocs folder???
If not then just format the partition and move on. Code would to erase the partition and reformat it
Code:

sudo gainroot
mkfs.vfat -n MyDocs /dev/mmcblk0p1


twister5 2011-05-28 12:57

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
I do that but nothing change also and that apear ( /bin/sh/: mkfs: not found )

michaaa62 2011-05-28 13:08

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
Please read the codebox again. The command starts with 'mkfs.vfat' in one continuous word.

twister5 2011-05-28 13:19

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
What can i say !!! I am so shy from you but really i need help .. I do it .. And its apear( mkfs.vfat 2.11 (12 mar 2005) )

Re: plz help me om my mass storage doesn't work
 
If you have no data on the device, just do the steps like in post #12 of this thread, this will aply a fresh new file system on the partition. A reboot or mount of the partition to /home/user/MyDocs should be sufficient to get rid of the error.
If, however, there was data in the MyDocs partition, which you like to get back, do the steps in post #2 line by line to check the file-system and repair it.
