Hello ppl
The other day i made my first bigstorage using rom 1.12.05PTB from i-mate, it run perfectly... no boot delays, random cold boots... nothing...
Yesterday i felt the need to test the new 1.13 rom and radio WWE, everything ok... no problem. but then i felt the need to go back to my language... and updated to 1.12.05PTB again but now without bigstorage...
Now the problem is that my storage simpy disapeard... how can i get it back?

Goes back to BigStorage and fill up your /storage with 8-10MB (exceed 7MB) then put your wanted rom. New Rom will format your /storage and u it will come back without BigStorage.

Mine is not formating.
I copied the same file more than once on the storage and had 9,7 MB usage.
Then i flashed with a official update and storage was back again.
But some of the files are also there, and i cant delete. i will try another time with one big file tommorow.

So, it seem that this solution not working.
After my last post i tried with one 12 mb file. Storage was missing.
Back to Big Storage and did it again with a 9 MB File. Storage was missing.
Last try was with 9 1MB files. Storage was missing.

Any suggestions?

Try to use 2 files 3MB don't fill over the 7MB... It worked for me hope it works for you to.

I fixed it!
Seems that the issue was that i did the bigstorage with an wwe rom upgrade, and than revert to tmde rom.
This morning i created a new bigstorage with a tmde rom, put all files from extrom in the storage ( i wanted to check if autorun would work if i put it in there - no success ). After that i flashed it again with the orig tmde rom, and during ce rom upgrade ther was a failure. Hard Reset, still in bootloader and started the upgrade again. After successfull upgrade i now have back my storage, with no files in it, and i can write and delete.

Now it could be that it was because of the:
- wwe<->tmde differences
- the failure during the upgrade ( whatever this could have done )
- just a little help from my guardian angel ( i only borrowed it from a colleague for a project where i needed this device, and i think he would bo not very happy without storage )

Maybe i will try it again if a can get my hands on an magician when one of my colleagues orders a new device... But for now i´m finished. Thanks.
