Hey guys I spend a good part of Friday trying to install a custom Kernel to my infuse. I tried using clockworkmod and odin to install the zip from my sd card. I had no luck. Every time the install from zip option was not available. I'm puzzled. Has anyone had this issue or see anyone else that had this problem. Thanks for any help.
Try moving the zip to your internal card if it isn't already. I know that CWM doesn't really like using the removable card.

He is correct.... CWM ONLY reads the internal card....
Thanks guys. I will try moving it today. I will let you know what happens.
UPDATE
Stupid mistake on my part. I transfered the files and REMOVED my phone from the usb cable and vola. Flashed. Thanks for the help!!
Sometimes you just have to walk away and come back another day to see it more clear.

I'm getting this error when using CWM 5.0.2.6 to wipe user data:
Error mounting /sdcard/.android-secure!
So the wipe fails.
I'm also unable to mount the internal SD card and do not have an external SD card to try.
I attached the error I get in ADB when trying to mount the internal /sdcard.

Can you access both the internal/external mass storage on the computer? If so try to format the external SD. Fat32 I believe and don't do the quick format. Just a thought I suppose. If I'm wrong someone scold me.

Just an educated guess, but if you can't mount either internal nor external cards, nothing will see them. I would highly recommend purchasing an external for this kind of work. You don't need an absurdly expensive 32G card. A very cheap 4 or 8G will do nicely. I picked up a 16G for $44 at Best Buy. Pass on the $80 version AT&T wants to sell you. You can find 4G cards on Amazon for around $5.
My computer see the phone and I can add any files to the phone can't install any roms or use cwm to install anything. Phone is rooted
I can see the sd card in Task Manager, under Storage. But in cwm if I try to wipe the dalvik cache or flash an update for a rom, it takes a few tries, but it works.
You need to odin the stock tar. Then boot into stock recovery and wipe data/cache. Then reboot. I have had this happen as well. Its a problem with recovery some how messing up partitions . If you just odin the stock tar it may boot loop. Thats why i say boot into stock recovery after and wipe. Actually several of us had this problem a while back. And there was no other way around it.
This happened to me when I flashed the SystemUi.apk file from my stock AT&T into boneSTOCKeteer. Did you do anything like that to get the ATT LTE icons?

Error Mounting SD card
Hi Guys,
I rooted my HTC desire few days ago and I tried to install LeeDroid HD with A2SD ROM with couple of addons through ROM Manager. And then when it installed and the phone rebooted I am getting the white screen with HTC logo folled by black screen with Android written on it. And it just stuck there.
When I started the phone into clockwork recovery mod and started to backup and restore it gives me an error E:/ Cant' mount/sdcard. Now I am stuck and need your help.
Please tell me how do I get rid of this problem and install another ROM and save my phone. A step by step guide would be really appreciated as I am new to this.
Thanks!

Hello XDA,
Im having a problem with recovery mode, my laptop and skyrocket read the sd card fine when in usb data storage mode. even when i check myfiles on the phone it says that the flashable zips that i have copied over are there. when i boot into recovery mode it gives me a list of dir's but when i go into the external sd dir nothing is there... Why is this? If anyone can help please!!! Thank you in advance. what I am trying to do is wipe my phone with The DarkSiDE SuperWipe and then flash the phone with ATT-ICS-Tmo-Port_2.zip. I have a Rogers Samsung Galaxy II Lte
Model# SGH-1727R. Rooted. Sim unlocked. Telus Sim in.
Are you picking install zip from sd/ choose zip from sd?
the only options i get are to apply update for sd, wipe factory reset and wipe cache. thank you for getting back. but it wont even recognize that anythings on the card to begin with.
apply update FROM SD that is.
Sounds like you have stock 3e recovery and not cwm.

Hey guys, I think I botched my tab... Stupidly I accidentally flashed a kernel that was not for my device...It's stuck in a boot loop, and I don't have my original CM9 rom to flash back. When I try to mount the sd card to my computer to try and put the CM9 rom back on, it won't mount. If I use an SD to Micro SD card adapter I can throw the rom back on and flash it right?
Any help is greatly appreciated. I am about to try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2007876&highlight=stock+rom but I need a backup plan if it doesn't work.
Thanks!
EDIT: Guide worked like a charm. Won't be making that mistake again.

That would be your best bet. Everyone makes mistakes like this once in a while but make sure that you always create backups so you wont lose all your data. Best of luck
yeah...u can use that procedure to get back to stock which will unroot ur device..this is a safe procedure..
but, if can get a rom in your sd card, flash it and make wipes..it'll be shorter method i guess, it'll save a lot of time!
Haha yeah it's funny the download link for the stock restore zip was downloading 700mb at roughly 100mb/s so yeah...slow af. But it worked so that's all that matters.

I dont know about you but 100 mb/s is lightning fast to me...
Wow really? I can usually pull 1.3mb/s to 2mb/s on some torrents. Guess I'm in a good area.

Hey guys,
Just experienced what I think is a soft brick. I know that this has been talked about a dozen times, and I have searched. I just want a more experienced yes or no to be sure.
Basically, last night I tried flashing PAndroid on my skyrocket and I went through the format system, format data, factory reset, and wipe cache. Then when I went into flash a zip it said something to the effect of "E: Can't access SD Card". So then I tried to use my band road but that also gave me the error. I then tried to mount the SD card, but it gave me another error. So, guessing that it would just factory reset me, I rebooted.
Now, my phone will vibrate and flash the Samsung logo before going to a black screen (but the screen is on). It also had the symptom of sticky power button for a while with the few second interval buzzing, but I jammed the power button and it seemed to stop doing that and is now doing the aforementioned thing instead.
Should I go use Vincom's soft Brick guide? Also, does anyone have a link to a 7zip extractor that isn't riddled with viruses? (had a hell of a time getting rid of them the first time I rooted haha)
Again, I know this is probably a fairly obvious answer, but yall have just been so helpful in the past that it makes me want to come here before just winging it. And I'm really nervous with this being my first time haha.
Thanks a lot guys, yall are the best!

Use vincoms guide and Odin back to stock. I just googled for 7-zip and didn't get any viruses. Don't have the original file or I'd put it up on dev host for you

You wiped system. That's why nothing is happening. You should still be able to enter recovery. Now why your recovery was giving you that error is a different story. Go to recovery and copy the version down here.

Okay, I managed to get into recovery, but I'm still getting the error about the SD card not being mounted. I was looking on Google and I found two different solutions. One was to re flash CWM with Odin, but would that mess up my phone because it already has CWM on it? The other was to reformat my SD card on the computer, but I have no honest idea how to do that haha.
EDIT: v6.0.1.4

Re-Flashing cwm won't mess anything up. Formatting the sd card will remove everything on it including the rom you're trying to flash.
