Ill start with what I was trying to do.
I wanted to port the new ICS on my Nexus S i9020, I got ClockWorkMod and Went through all the steps that were needed and then I had to boot the phone to see if it worked, but it stayed on the white Google sign.
I Pulled out the battery and put it back in more than 30 times and still didnt work. So now I cant access the phone itself only recovery mode.
When im in recovery all I get is cache failure, i get:
E: can't find misc
E: failed to find "cache" to mount at "/cache"
E:Can't mount cache/recovery/command.....etc.
Im new to this, Im not sure what I should do. Can anyone help?
I have had same problem as yours, try flash newer version of recovery via adb in bootloader and then flash rom
ics is not stable yet, flash 2.3.6,wait for another week for ics

So here's the deal. I have A rooted Droid Incredible and i cant get past the splash image. I tried going into recovery and wiping everything and flashing a new rom but I keep getting the following message:
E: Can't mount dev/block/mmcblk0p1
It comes up when i try to flash a rom and says installation aborted about halfway through installing. It also comes up when i try to wipe and do a factory reset.
If anyone knows a way around this It would be immensely helpful, because as of right now i cant use my phone which is a problem. I'm running clockwork recovery v2.5.0.5.

Try to post this in Droid Incredible's ROM development section - you will find better help there!
Ok, I cant install any update.zip files or NAND stuff to go back to stock. Everytime I try, it says E: signature failure and aborted. Ive wiped all my data and everything too.
Here is the screen info.
Android System Recovery <3e>
reboot system now
apply update from /sdcard << cant install anything using this.
wipe data/factory
wipe cache partition
So everytime I try to install something it says E: signature verification failed.
I run a WIND Nexus S, with a the ICS 4.0.3, which really ate up my memory and started lagging like turtle after an hour or 2. SO I wanna go back to stock and install another version that hopefully rus better and smoother. Please help
Do you have cwm 5.0.2.x or greater?
No, I think Im 3.xx something. BUt Ive tried updating thru rom manager and it says I dont have the privileges. I have superuser installed o I dont know why its not letting me. Do I have to manually apply the 5.8.0 touch update???
I assume you have an unlocked bootloader, so use fastboot to upgrade to v5 or greater. You don't need the touch if you don't want it, you can just use 5.0.2.0 if you prefer.
Recap of command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You can get the latest superuser .zip file from here. You can probably flash that through the older recovery if you're unsure how to use fastboot.
Thanks for the replies Harbb. SO I did fastboot flash recover to the new 5.0.2.0.. but nothing happened. The cmd did say recovery sent in 1.7 secs. But when I reboot nothing changed. Its still the same recovery at 3e and I still cant install updates cuz of the e: signature verification failure.
EDIT: I just got it to work. Thank for the help Harbb, extremely appreciated.
Good to know you got it sorted
Hey guys!
So i had my HTC One S unlocked and rooted and all was fine until i gave my phone to my friends to flash a custom Rom into it... The problem is that it got stuck in the bootloop... After surfing the web for hours i think i only made it worse cuz now i cant get in the recovery anymore!
I got my HTC 4 days ago so Im not an expert at all...
Mainly when my friends saw that the rom failed and my phone got stuck in the bootloop the tried mounting the phone to the computer via recovery but the phone said that the mount failled! they did the wipe of cache and factory somthing...(i cant remember exactly cuz they did it and not me).
I have read that i need to install the RUU and i did but i got the error 132 signicher failed... so i did what was in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459
But failed at step 4 cuz i cant get the the recovery(when i press recovery it reboots and goes to "FASTBOOT USB"...
please help!

Download twrp recovery IMG and flash it through fast boot to get recovery back.. Then go to boot loader select fast boot again and run cmd OEM relock and as long as you are using an ruu with the same or higher hboot you have currently have it will work.. If it doesn't then you need a different ruu...again the ruu needs to be same or higher than hboot version currently installed..

well after countless hours i was able to get the recovery back!
the problem now is that in the recovery i press "mounts and storage" and "mount USB storage" it wrote:" E:unable to open ums lunfile (no suchfile or directory) "... im in the CWM recovery and the usb cable is connected to the conputer with the installed drivers...
also, i tried installing RUU's and they all failed in the same place :"signicher failled"
i noticed that there was a website where i could download all the original RUU's but is has shutted down for some reason...
BTW if there are any files i need to download could you please post the link cuz i have no idea where to look... if you cant post the link for some reason could you please post the full name of the file?
So I have advanced and now im in this situation:
I have a TWRP recovery... I enter mount. Check mount storage,data,cache but sd card wont mount...
X Unmount System
X Unmount DATA
X Unmount Cache
O Mount SD Card
My computer sees the phone as removble and askes me if i want to format it!
Should I format or should do something else?

Format it then again install recovery through fast boot.. On your PC pick and download a custom rom.. Open zip and extract boot.IMG file to PC in the location of your fast boot..boot phone into recovery mount SD ( it will mount fine after you format and re flash recovery ) move ROM zip to SD card... Boot back to fast boot this time open terminal type...fastboot flash boot boot.img... When done do... Fastboot wipe cache.... Then boot to recovery wipe every thing except SD card 3 times and install ROM zip.. After process is complete wipe only both caches one time... Reboot and you'll be good to go...

Thanks!!!
That worked! Your a genius!
Not sure if anyone will check this thread anymore, but Im having almost the exact same issues as the guy above ^ and I tried the solutions given in this thread and Im still stuck on a bootloop. I have another thread on here and people are trying to help me but still nothing works. Ive tried installing dark jelly cuz they told me you dont have to worry about flashing a boot.img and it installed fine but went right into bootloop. So im kinda stuck. just branching out for answers at this point. Thanks for any help
Firstly I hope this is the right subforum for this post.
So I am pretty much stuck with a brick atm( can make calls / texts ) and I am not sure where I went wrong.
I went and unlocked my phone, unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM.
But when I went to flash a ROM and Gapps I encountered a problem
When I went to go and wipe data and cache I got these errors.
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I still proceeded to go ahead and try and flash Gapps and Liquidsmooth ROM.
When I selected to reboot after the flash my phone did nothing.
The screen was black and I was forced to reboot with Volume up/ Power.
Now I have found a thread in a sub forum of another phone but was hoping to find a Razr HD XT925 specific fix,
I will link the forums for reference but I am worried I may have bricked my phone.
When I do get it to boot it is practically the stock ROM but no Gapps, some buttons dont work.

Thankyou in advance.
EDIT: I also cant get my phone to recognise that it is in fact in USB debugging mode and I wasn't able to re run the Motopocalypse and Motochopper

Someone here might have an easier fix, but you could try Matt's utility to bring it back to stock and start again.

This worked perfectly! Thankyou so much for the link and reply
So I thought I`d try out a rom just been running a stock rooted rom for awhile now. I thought I`d play with MIUI rom but for some reason I get "phone has stopped" so I was gonna go back into recovery and reflash it... Well I cant as now it says cant mount /sdcard. Now what?
Phone still boots into the rom but I cant do anything as it says phone has stopped
Odd... After a few reboots CWM is now working correctly now. Not sure what caused this..
