Hello fellow Transformers,
I've flashed Clockwork recovery and I have root access but when I try to flash a custom ROM I get "E: Can't mount /sdcard".
Tried reflashing the recovery img, tried manually mounting the /sdcard ... same error.
I used this thread to gain root access + flash recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125714 .
I don't have a microSD card so the /sdcard I'm talking about is the internal 16GB one.
Hope it's even mountable... or do I have to use a microSD card?
Would appreciate any help!
Thanks!
Edit: tried a microSD card - won't mount as well
That root method seems to be pretty unreliable, judging by all the comments in that thread. Try flashing this version of CWM and try your custom rom again:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093818
If that still doesn't work, I'd say you should unroot and then try one of the more reliable rooting methods.

I saw that thread but how can I flash this Clockwork img if I can't mound SD card? can I use fastboot boot recovery ?
Hah! Good point. You got me there...
Do you have another microSD card laying around? As far as I know CWM requires you have the files on a microSD, not the internal SD.
This is the method that I used and had no issues with:
http://asustransform.com/forum/index.php?/topic/19-how-to-root-your-asus-transformer/
You could try re-rooting your device. This method requires you to downgrade your firmware, though.
Thanks , i'll try the rooting method you did.
Try another microsd card first. I've seen people in other threads with this problem, and a different card did the trick.
Did you find a fix for this? I did a factory reset twice and re-rooted twice via the guide above. Also tried a differnt root method. Tried 3 different SD cards and reformatting them to fat32 (also tried fat and ntfs just in case ) none of them will mount in CWM recovery??
My tf will recognize the SD card when booted but not in clockwork. Im using the "standard " CWM as I can't flash the modded version. Anyone please!! I'm stuck on 3.0.1

Used the nvflash method, which flashes the modded CW, and bought a simple 4gb microSD card and it worked great.
Make sure your sd card is formatted to FAT32.
Thanks for the quick response. nvflash it is then. forgot that's used for more than just unbricking

Well, I was able to nvflash the modded cmw and prime 1.4 which was my primary goal but even this cwm won't mount the removeable or internal sd for me (still not sure which one mounts) reformatted 2 different cards to fat32 on my pc even tried formatting on the tf still nothing. Any other ideas ?

In that case, assuming you did everything, I suggest RMA... It should work so if it doesn't, maybe there's a fault with the sd card slot...
The best test is to take a microSD card that works for someone else on the Transformer and test it on yours, but it's hard finding someone with the same tablet next to you I guess...
That's what I don't get. It mounts fine when the tf is on, mount no problem on my other devices, they just wont mount for cwm on the tf. I'm gonna mess around a bit more to see if anything else works. I have some light screen bleed so it would give me a reason to return if I end up needing to go that route. Thanks again for the suggestions !
Edit: not sure why but CWM recognized the sdcard when I partitioned it, then I was able to mount it and do a backup. Still a little confused that it would recognize/mount the SD to partition but not to install or backup. But it works now

I have screen bleeds as well but very small one and I didn't even notice them until I saw that "Screen bleeds" thread so I'm not going to return it for now... if it'll get worse I will.
It Works!
Thanks to jcarrz1 reply to my post in Clockworkmod recovery 3.2.0.1 roach-tf101-r1 I found the solution to my SD Card not mounting. It was indeed solved by first Partitioning my external SD card. After that CWM mounts the SD card just fine and uses any files I have stored there.
i have the same problem
can u explain what are you exaclty doing to fix it ?
edit : FIXED !
Mount Error Fixed
After battling with the error of the Clockworkmod recovery not been able to mount the SD Card for days, I was finally able to get this to work by formatting the SD Card using the SDFormatter. It can be downloaded here
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
After installing the SDFormatter, formt the card accepting the default settings.
Good luck

This one click method called Razorclaw came out today and I rooted it no problem. The problem is that the stock recovery is still installed and I have no clue how to install Roach2010's (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213723) port of CWM Recovery onto my TF. If anyone can post a detailed step by step on how to do that, I will greatly appreciate it. Please and thank you in advance!
In that Razorclw thread look for Gnufabio's Recoveryinstaller app.
It will install cwm recovery
RazorClaw and Gnufabio's Recoveryinstaller app worked perfectly on my new Transformer B80.
Thanks alot but that doesnt seem to be working. just looks like something is flashing then just reboots and i try rebooting into recocery and it just reboots.

Alright thank you for the help. I finally found out I had to press the volume down button then volume up after I did the recovery app.

I try and make a backup after following the two steps above, but it errors saying it can't mount /sdcard. Not sure if its referring to the internal memory or my sd card. I have a b70 and have been itching to install a rom since I bought it.

It store the backup to the external micro sd card. If you have one and it can't mount, try to format it again on a PC
I have my sd card formated to exFat to support files over 4 GB, do I have to go back to Fat32?

Good morning, after searching and installing a lot of Clockworkmod Recovery for my tf101g B90, i've always the same error :
Can't mount sdcard - Error mounting sdcard
I installed as shown in forum Clockworkmod using RecoveryInstaller.apk that install v 3.2.0.1 roarch2010-tf101-r1.
I've not used Rom manager as shown in forum ( i did this, but i read the forum, so i delete all)
What is the right apk to install a working Clockworkmod, that allow me to install/backup from my sdcard ?
Thanks to all !

I have this error since today. Befor installs I never had this problem. I didn't install a new ClockworkMod Recovery since rooting. Only the roms I changed.
Edit: Now it's working. With a 16GB card it's working. 64GB not.
Not to meta-mod, but this is really stuff you should post in Q&A or general.

Format your card for FAT32.
For a 64 GB card you need to use a 3rd party utility
(Now, I know this is not in the right section or even in the device's page, but...)
Forewarning: I am NOT responsible for any damages caused by running this tool. (You ran it, not me.) Also, do NOT use on the Thrive 7 or ANY of the Excites! The Thrive 7 has an entirely different bootloader/partition layout than the 10.
Pio_masaki and I have been working hard for almost a year to get root on the ICS version of the Toshiba Thrive 10.
Last night, I was able to finally sneak past sealime.ko and have it work.
It uses the "root any ICS device" tool, with special modifications specifically for the Thrive 10.
(can't post any links, so it's on the "thrive-hackers" github page.)
Special note: While it is set up for OSX ADB, I have not been able to find any binaries.
Are you saying that we are close to a root method for Thrives running Toshiba ICS?

Saying there is a method to root it now, yes, we got around sealime.ko. This means we can flash the HC bootloader which is unlocked, which allows custom recovery and kernels/ramdisks (boot.img) to be used.
BTW the link is https://github.com/Thrive-Hackers
congrats guys ! very awesome work !
jdsingles deodexed ROM w/ agat63's 1.3 kernel Suped up w/ CB 6.26.13
More specifically, it bypasses sealime to flash the unlocked bootloader. What we did was we MVd /dev/block/mmcblk0p6 to 0p9. It's a pure fluke Pio and I found out that it works. We found out that sealime was explicitly blocking write to 0p6, so he semi-sarcastically said to move it. I ran the mv command, whadda ya know? It worked!
'Course, getting the tool completed wasn't as simple as that...
PS: Could we get this moved to the Toshiba Thrive Development section?
Have instructions been written for the process?
worked for me
I used this tool on Jul 8 and it worked very well. I got it from thriveforums dot org. Thank you pio_masaki and AmEv.
I tried changing the recovery to the latest TWRP using "fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.4.1.0.img" while in bootloader. I was not able to, though as it kept giving me errors.
Does this bootloader not allow flashing a recovery? I noticed the rootme script uses adb commands to push the CWM recovery.
I am now running Dale's latest deodexed rooted ICS rom with the CWM recovery he included.
Other unrelated lessons learned:
If you can't mount your SD card in recovery, try a different card!
And, Dale packages his update.zip inside the downloaded zip file!

I installed the drivers, used the root tool, the restore was successful, but now the tablet is stuck in a boot-loop mode.
The root tool was running, there was a line that said the screen would go blank, which it did, and it stayed there for several hours. When I came back to check on it, the tablet was off, so I turned it on. That's when I found the boot loop. It'll get to the home page, tell me that nova launcher has stopped, then loop back to the moving stars section of the boot screen.
Any ideas on what to do now?
DLeach4512,
if CWM is still alive, so just flash any ROM via CWM (flashing wipes all your data that exist in internal memory, so you need to make backup via CWM if you wish to save your data; and after flashing ROM you can import all data via Titanium Backup)

You know, I feel kinda dumb because I didn't even try that!
Now i've tried it, and I see I can get into CWM.
I put a ROM on an SD card on my PC, then put that SD card into the Thrive and used CWM to install the .zip of the ROM I selected, and it won't install. It starts, then it says Installation aborted, but won't tell me why.
Any ideas where I should start unraveling this mystery?
1. check that your recovery is CWM and not stock recovery
2. check that you put on SD archive that contain folders named system and META-INF, file like boot.img, something other maybe (many ROMs archive contain "archive in archive", so you need to unpack archive from main archive and than put that internal archive on SD); after checking that all right try to flash that archive again
3. try another sdcard (full sized SDHC + formated in FAT32)

Excellent!
1) I had to extract "update.zip" from the ROM I had downloaded.
2) I re-formatted the card I was using to FAT32 instead of FAT.
3) I was able to get the install started with no trouble after following your directions.
BIG THANK YOU FOR THAT!
I got a successful install message, and then it booted!
Thanks a million!
Problems after Mount Changes
I changed the mount as described on thriveforums.org to allow apks and data to go to the external sd rather than "shared" internal memory.
I now have the situation with less free memory available on the sd card than on internal. The CWM backups went on the physical card- a 32 G one almost full. Will look for a major mfr 64 Gig.
One or so issues with the revised mounts where the external sd card is now internal. They relate to making backups with dalepl's latest CWM 6.0.1: where to put CWM backups for now and are they being made correctly with the revised mounts?
The backup made prior to the mount change looks normal: a single, dated/numbered folder about 2.6 Gb, 6 files: boot.img, cache.ext4.tar, data.ext4.tar, nandroid.md5, recovery.img and system.ext4.tar. However, the one made after the mount change also has a dated, numbered folder of only 15.8 Mb and 7 files: .android_secure.vfat.dup, boot.img, cache.ext4.dup, data.ext4.dup, nandroid.md5, recovery.img and system.ext4.dup. There is a second folder associated with the later bu called "blobs", which is huge --2.76 Gb, 3292 folders and 6581 files. Is this an expected result and any one think it might be a valid bu?
Also, it went on to the external SD (now "internal") and total storage use is now almost 28 Gb out of 30.2. I now have the situation with less free memory available on the sd card than on internal. The stuff there looks ok, pix movies and music plus CWM bups of 5.5 G and App_Backup_Restore archived apks at 2.8 Gb. So, I copied the cwm backups folder to the real internal memory, now sdcard2. I assume this true internal memory might get wiped during a restore so, this is not a valid storage site for this? And, if I put copies on a spare card, will that really work if my downloaded apps are on the original card, eg does the CWM backup copy the external card apps?
As I note, for some reason this 'blobs' folder won't copy easily to a USB via the Thrive or Win 7 pc. It also won't copy to a Win 7 HD partition where I store my Thrive stuff. (Update: I was able to do a wireless transfer to my pc and then, from there, to a spare SD card.)
Any thoughts? Should I go back and change the mounts to default?
BTW, I find FolderMount has no real use with the changed mount on the Thrive unless someone tells me otherwise. With the Thrive mounting the external card as internal, files go to the physical card.
gberpa,
I don't understand your question - it is very long. But I know that custom recovery (CWM / TWRP) itself remounts sdcard and internal memory before wipe process so it will wipe correct memory (only internal memory). If you need to change the ROM you don't need to worry about mounting paths because after wipe mounting paths will be restored to original.

I am using Samsung SDXC 64GB class 10 card. For some reason I could not format the EXT4 successfully. I have tried MiniTool partition and GPart USB and Disk boot.
With latest GPart I receive error "Input/Output errro during write on /dev/mmcblk0" with header message "Libpart Bug Found!".
I tried to leave the first partition empty then format the 2nd partition EST4 as well but it made no different.
Finally I ask a frined to format the card from his Apple laptop and he said he did it. However I am still unable to detect the 2nd paritition.
This time the Gpart softare has shown a Warning message as shown in the attachment.

I have heard that MiniTool has corrupted a few users SD when they use it. If it is still new, you can get the exchange from where you bought it.
Otherwise, you could try this to see if it works out for you.
You can use a card reader and plug it in your window pc. You need to reformat your SD with extfat. If everything works, then you can use gparted to format two partions, fat32/ext4, to use for data2sd.
If it is still not working, you can go to the SD card associate website and download the format4.0 tool. You need to install the software on your pc and use it to format your SD. In the pull down option, you need to select the "overwrite" option in the menu and hope that they can repartition your allocation table in order for your SD to work again. Good luck... :fingers-crossed:

You must use gparted to format the card. There is no other way.
Take the microSD out and check if it boots normally. You may have corrupted your card with Mini Tool...

That's what "intmedia" does.
The ext4 partition should contain your apps and app data.

Thanks _that :good:
But one problem remains:
Wipe cache and davilik doesn't work correctly. After the wipe my tab don't update the apps during the boot of the rom.

You have to use the mount-data2sd.zip from the data2sd thread to temporarily switch your recovery to use /data on the microSD card.

Hi, do you mind giving me tips on how to solve my problem? I am thinking if my tablet could not read the 2nd partititon on extenral MicroSD card, I will not get DATA2SD works no matter how. Please correct me if I am wrong. I have also installed mount-data2sd.zip from TWRP 2.6 and then flash Cromi 5.0 ROM using built-in DATA2SD kernel by that_4. the outcome is still negative.
Thanks

May I ask how do you try to read your ext4 SD? Did you flash _that's data2sd zip file? I don't recall that I have ever gotten any problems with the exactly SD that you have...
Edit: If you use _that data2sd kernel, then you don't need to flash _that's data2sd zip file.. However, it is not a bad idea to flash it again to see how your tablet responses..

Hi, the way I checked is when I goto storage option, i could only see the internal and first partition on my external SDcard so I assume the 2nd partition is not recognized? Also using ES Explorer, I clicked "MicroSD" option and it only showed the content in the first SDcard partition.
These are the steps I did:
1- From TWRP 2.6.0, I flash a separate mount-data2sd.zip
2 - still in TWRP, once the above flashing complete, I flash CROMI-X 5.0 deodex and select that_4 data2sd kernel
3 - wipe cache and dalvik cache
4 - reboot system
5 - I got message there is no OS in the internal parition/disk do you want to continue? Since I got no choice, I clicked yes then the screen hang at initial Asus logo screen.
Luckily I have TWRP backup prior so I managed to restore my complete /data, /system and /boot or recovery.
Plz help and advice my misunderstanding or missing steps here. Thanks

First, can you tell me what rom and kernel you are running? I don't think that you can see your ext4 on your external sd unless you are using data2sd.. For now, you can use gparted to see if there is a second partition with ext4.. I need to understand your system a little more in order to help you set up data2sd..
