Yes I have searched for an answer but cannot find one. I am rooted but decided to update my 1.2.3 to the 1.5.2 recovery image. I am going back through the steps in the wonderful guide "theresthatguy" put out and when I try to push the image to the card it says that it is a read only file system. So now what? I tried just moving it over in Windows then flashing it but it says file not found when I do that. Help anyone?
Really? I figured this would be easy for someone or are we spending to much time on all the drama. Just looking for help. This is what forums are for right? Sharing knowledge.

format your card and make sure your rooted first.
sorry your being neglected buddy
im trying to wade through the threads and help sort out the problems
are you using the flashrec method? thats the easiest way.
hope i helped.
You can also just mount the sd card and copy and paste. There is also a newer recovery image out. 1.6.2
I have never been able to use the push to sd method I just move them to the sd card through win and then continue as far as not being able to see it you need to make sure that you
Code:
cd/sdcard/
flash_image recovery recovery-RA-heroc-v1.5.2.img
wait till you get # then
Code:
reboot recovery
I would suggest going to 1.6.2 though
Thank you for the replies. I did the flashrec method origionally because I was having the same problems. Now the flashrec just shows an error and cannot do anything with it. I tried reloading with no luck. I did a format but maybe I messed it up. I didn't know which one to do.

sounds weird, you are rooted already right? maybe try a different sd card perhaps?

^ go there and follow everything, step by step.
I am rooted. I get a # when connected to adb. I guess I will just keep messing with it. I am going to try the 1.6.2 though. Thanks. By the way? how do you format your card? I don't see that option.
I'm reading this of my phone so there may be a solution already, but here is another idea.. If you can get to tyre market.. Download ROM manager, flash their recovery image from within the app
then towards the bottom there is an option to flash the 1.6 RA.. It worked on my wife's phone when I couldn't get adb to work loading 1.5 RA

also if you flash a rom that supports app2sd make sure you format and partition your sd card in recovery as well. you want swap/ext2/fat, you can allocate the size for each.
me i have 96mb swap / 1024 ext2 / and the rest in fat

I don't have the swap/ext2/fat option. Mine says fat32+ext2=swap

no go into recovery and create a partition. it should go in order of swap/ext2/fat. you can also convert your ext2 to ext3 or 4 as well. are you saying it isn't giving you that option?
Correct. I don't have a create partition option. Hoping to get that with new recovery image.

oh yeah, you have to install the new recovery first. follow that guide i gave you.
So I downloaded this (The ROM Manager)and saw where you would do it but it was darked out and couldn't select it. Boo
This is the error reported before doing wipe/dalvik cache.
E:unknown volume for path [ext-sd]
How can i fix this?
This error appeared after installing Juwe's Smart Edition 4.3.2.1 from a clean JVH.
(Before install JVH I made a SD format from settings)
Thank you.
That error always appears in recovery when wiping davlik. Not an issue.

And there's no way to fix it?
same issue here
I was also having that same error as well...I hope that senior member is correct...
but I believe its because you may not have have a partitioned sd card!!! See sd-ext is what the recovery determines as a partitioned space in your sd card. If you dont have one it will read an error or skip it. If your using amon ra you can have it skip the sd-ext. Amonra 2.3 has fixed that error. Just a piece of code running and actually doing nothing! Now theres a hook written in to skip it if it doesnt find sd-ext.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S (GT-I9000) and, from what i gather, i couldn't use Amonra with this device.
I normally use ClockworkMod 2 or 3. But i could also use recovery2e or 3e.
Do you know some method to fix this problem using this recoveries?
Thank you.
It is not really considered a problem. Your davlik cache is being wiped correctly. This has been discussed and looked into extensively in the MT4G forums. It is just something with Clockwork. But like I said, not an issue.

I am also having this problem and cannot ignore it as I cannot load into the phone and trying to factory wipe or install via CwM just keeps getting this error. My phone is now stuffed as far as I can see
Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum ( Actually I have benn here for a long time without account )
Alright, This is my problem, I usually flash back to stock by RUU, my Pico has over 100MB free space. A few days ago, I flashed the same RUU, but this time I have 70MB space only, I have cleaned all partitions by recovery and flash again, still.
Oh wait, I just use Disk Usage and check the storage, it's say there are some data(not system) on the internal storage, wow.
Does anyone have ideas?
My Pico cid is Taiwan(621), so I flash TW RUU.
Thanks
before flashing, did you wipe system partition too?

why not sd-ext partition for apps?

I know that and it's convenience, but this smartphone now is just my secondary phone.
And for a odd reason, I prefer not to creat a partition on my SD card, just like to keep it simple and clean.
Looks like I'm stubborn...
Hey all,
I have found myself getting used to this new A/B partitioning scheme and it is great not having to wipe app/user data as it is shared across both partitions. Is there a reason one would need to factory reset their phone anymore?

If you're having issues with your ROM but then you could just as easy do a fresh install

I had to do a full wipe after too much experimenting broke root. If you are changing custom roms a wipe may be necessary.
I wrote up a guide about A/B here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/guide-noobs-guide-to-b-partitions-op6-t3816123

[A/B][A-ONLY][SCRIPT][READ-ONLY][EROFS][ANDROID 10+] Universal Disable Force Encryption for RO and RW "NEO STABLE"
Disable Force Encryption NEO Do you all know what DFE is? no? Anyway. Basically, your device has an encrypted data section "/data" by default. Let's look at the advantages of google's solution that we will lose after disabling encryption: -...

Hey, I've been using a bunch of ROMs for a while, and recently this has become a problem.
Basically, when using Project Elixir or a MIUI ROM, everything works fine.
But, for example, when using crdroid, Evolution X or AncientROM, after rebooting the device, it just doesn't boot, it bootloops.
This might be related to something about Magisk, but not sure.
Also, this only happens after doing the setup.
Can anyone help, and is anyone else facing this problem?
wipe /data ? I'm almost sure that's the step yo're missing.

If you are changing ROMs you should format (note: format - not wipe) the data partition after flashing the new ROM. Of course this will also delete the contents of your internal storage, so you should backup your internal storage before formatting data.

I always use the instructions provided by the ROM developer, so I don't think I'm doing anything wrong...

Then it seems to me that the problem may be with something that you are installing after installing the ROM.
Perhaps start with a clean flash, setup the ROM, and do not install Magisk.
