[help important] formated everything - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Accedentaly i formated everything on my TF101 B80 ! i have ClockworkMod Recovery v3.2.0.1 roach2010-tf101-r1 but i cannot mount anything neither a usb flash nor sdcard!
What can i do ?? How i can reinstall OS ?

Only thing I can suggest is format your sd card and try again.
If it CWM can't read your sd card I'm not sure what else you can do.

I do not own an sd card now.
I use a usb flash.. Is there anything i can do with the usb?
Also it cannot be mounted :S
What format i must use for the usb?

Get a microSD cwm will mount that

Cant Flash via CWM

Hi there everyone, I just picked up my Transformer today, and while Im not new to the whole flashing business (done it lots on my Galaxy S) I cant seem to get this working on the tablet. Ive managed to get it rooted and CWM loaded, but every time I try to flash a zip from my sd card its lot letting me mount the sd card.
Was hoping someone would be able to help me out
CWM only read files from the Removable micro sd card and not internal sd card.
Also the removable micro sd need to be in a fat32 format

Are certain microSD cards not compatible? I've currently got one in FAT32 format and it cannot read that either.
Some people have reported problems with using a MicroSD when formatted as Fat32 through windows. Try using an SD card formatting tool. Apparently when formatting an SD Card through windows it doesn't format it correctly.
Also some people say they had to try a few card before one could be read.

[Q] Backup/restore/wipe questions

Hey, this is my first tablet. The only other android device I own is a Nexus One (and I've done a LOT of stuff with it, so please don't assume I'm a complete noob!)
I realize that my transformer has 16GB of internal storage... is there a way I can backup my data so a partition or something so when I do a factory reset I don't lose all my /sdcard data? Similar to how I do stuff on my nexus one? My buddy with the nexus s doesn't have to pop in an SD card or anything (not that he even can) and he can still flash roms and his user data is still safe. How are people doing this on the transformer?
As of right now CWM recovry only work with an external micro sd card.

The problem with the TF is that /data and /sdcard (internal) are part of the same partition, so I suppose if you wipe /data, you will be wiping also /sdcard. Thats the maily reason of using an external SD card.
Aside from that, Root Toolkit can save a complete image of your tablet via APX into your PC (if you don't want to use CWM).

^^^ how to use external sd card as main sd card, am not sure how this works with CWM

CWM should behave equal since you're linking your external sd card to /sdcard. If CWM uses /Removable/MicroSD to mount the external sd card, you won't notice any difference.

Messed up Recovery - Help!

In the process of upgrading ICS ROM's I think I messed up my CWM recovery (3.2.0.1)
I mistakenly formatted staging and pretty much everything else that can be formatted within the mounts and storage part of CWM.
Now recovery cannot see my Micro SDCard, it can't mount it either. Nor can I mount USB storage.
I tried installing the nvflash version of the rogue recovery, then reflashed the older 3.2.0.1 recovery from Roach to see if that would reset things, but I'm still having the same issues with not being able to access my MicroSD card.
I want to stick with this recovery as I don't like having all the various ROM files on the internal card (which is why I bought a 32GB external that I can keep all of the stuff I download from XDA).
So my current attempt is to go back to HC by using the revolver NVFlash, which I am hoping fixes my recovery also.
EDIT: this didn't resolve things for me either!! Argh! Still can't mount the MicroSD card.
If it doesn't, can anyone offer suggestions?
Thanks!
The Team Rouge recovery read from external micro sd card as well.

Thanks...but for some reason my TF can't mount the MicroSD (external) anymore, whether it's Roach 3.2.0.1 or Team Rogue.
I've nvflashed back to revolver 3.11 HC, and the SD card shows up fine in the ROM, but not in recovery.
Something has gone wrong and I am not sure how to resolve.
I wonder if putting the device completely back to stock (unrooted also) would help?
I would try and format your sd card again on a PC, try sd formatter
https://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3/SDFormatterv3.0.zip
Just copy the content of the micro sd card to a pc, format and copy it back.

[Q] I need help with my g2x ive looked far and wide.. please give me a solution *-_-

So my g2x wasnt mounting my INTERNAL sd memory in CWM so then I reflashed it to the internal nandroid CWM with oneclick tool NOW I can acually mount it on USB and I formatted the internal to FAT32 on my computer there are NO files on it and no ROM is loaded on the phone. I still cannot mount the SD in CWM. Im using CWM 4.0.1 Internal SD nandroid support. PLEASE ive been looking all over.

Use oneclickflasher to flash clockwordmod touch. Install a rom, and format the internal sd. Try seeing if it recognized under cwm touch (remember, when you hit install zip in cwm touch click the option use internal memory)
I advise using clockwork 5.0.2.0. That's the most stable and actually for our phones and not a port.
There have been issues with certain kernels with other recoveries and it's better to be safe than sorry.

[solved] P3110 + Clockworkmod 6.0.2.7 cannot mount external SDcard

I am unable to mount the external SDcard with CWM 6.0.2.7 or any earlier versions. As a result I cannot backup to or restore from the external SDcard. If I boot into CM10.1 the card mounts OK & I can read & write files to it. The same happens if I try a different SDcard. Any ideas what's going on?

Hi,
I have a P3110 with CWM6.0.2.7. I had the same problem. I simply formated my micro-SD card with the tablet, and now I can backup to and restore from my micro-SD card. (I found this somewhere in the forum by searching.)

Thanks for the reply, I had also searched the forum & google but did not find a solution. I cannot mount the SD card in CWM to format it and there doesn't seem to be a way to format it from CM10.1.
[A]
Try erasing everything on the m-sd card. Put it in you tablet. Then go to settings>storage>micro sd. and select the option to format it.
Hope that helps.

CM 10.1 doesn't appear to have this option under Storage settings
Could the reason for CWM not mounting the SD card be that CM10 has different mount points from the stock ROM for the SD card?
Mystery solved! I tried CWM formatting the SD card in my P5100 which has no problems doing CWM backups to external SD cards - and it would not mount. I then dug out a Samsung branded microSD card, stuck it in the P3110 and it worked first time! It's now happily backing up to the external SD. The 2 cards that didn't work were generic and Sandisk. Thanks for the suggestions.
