hey alll,
i was running the latest Infused ROM until i decided to play around.
I backed up the current ROM using Red CWM,
then flashed DlevRom Infuse edition which worked flawlessly.
Then i decided to try MIUI Rom, and i also succeeded.
I didn't like MIUI, so I decided to "restore" my backup.
Now.. I had restored previously many times so I thought I knew what I was doing..(apparently not, cuz I'm stuck at Red CWM now..)
So I went into recovery, i think it was blue... so i remembered from my restore to infused from CM7 that I needed to be in the same recovery as the one I made the back up with. So I rebooted into MIUI, installed SGS Kernal Flasher, and flashed Bedwa's latest kernel which I was running with Infused.
So I booted into recovery, and had my Red CWM up. so i tried restoring...
here's the full CWM code(word choice?)
Checking MD5 sums...
Restoring system...
Restoring data...
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
Error mounting /data/!
Skipping format...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
Can't mound /data/!
and with this i'm at the Red CWM Menu...
Where did I go wrong? How do I successfully restore? I never ran into this problem before...
Please help!!! =( =( =(
Edit: I was desperate so I disabled voodoo lagfix from CWM menu and rebooted ... I heard the robot voice saying now it's disabled....and I'm still stuck in bootloop..
please help me get it back to a working state =(((
Use ags kernel flasher and flash the cwm community kernel to get red cwm back. You can't restore or flash other Rom's from blue. Witch you pointed out you were in red. Try mounting system/data then restore

Not to sure there might be a problem with it trying to read the backup/ mounting data. You might just have to reflash the rom you would like to use

so,
i flashed infused v2.1.0 because it was the only Rom in my sd card...
all seemed to go well
and when i rebooted after enabling voodoo lagfix (cuz i had it disabled and it went into a boot loop) i heard the robot voice.. it said voodoo is now enabled and now its going to convert data partition.. then it says not enough space? or something like that and it goes in to a boot loop again... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
should i just ODIN back to root+3e..?
will this erase all my photos? pictures are all i care about... as long as i don't lose them..

Ran into this problem today when flashing a rom, i had to odin ultimate unbrick and erase all data from within the stock recovery (blue). I then odin-ed community kernel, enabled voodoo, then did red recovery and flashed my custom rom again and the data partiton was working again. I'm not sure what had happened, but i had to ultimate unbrick twice with the pit file.

yes.. haha which one should I use?? because I see there are three.. gtg has two and h8rift has one..
i want to do the one that puts me back to stock with root + 3e which i think both gtg and h8rift put out...
what exactly does odin back to stock "wipe"?
in gtg's post it says that it wipes data, dbdata, idk.. stuff like that and i have no idea what that means... as long as my pictures and files in my "download" folder are safe i'm good!
I've always lost root with Odin back to stock only erases system files such as apps and everything ur SD card will be fine you'll just have to re-root flash 3e recovery and cwm

Hey guys, just got a Sensation and naturally the first thing I did was S-off and install cwm 5.0.8.9
I'm trying to flash AOKP. It flashes successfully but when booted it reboots as soon as I select anything on the screen. Of course I've wiped /data /cache /system etc beforehand. Does anyone know why this is happening?
Fine, I thought, I'll just try another rom. I'll mount usb storage from cwm and transfer one to my sd card. NOPE. I get "E:unable to open ums lunfile" when trying to mount. And to make matters worse I'm getting an md5 error when trying to restore my backup of stock rom.
Can anyone guide me on how to get my device operational again, and ideally getting AOKP running? I'm comfortable with adb and fastboot etc
Thanks for any help

hi if you want to run ics aosp/aokp you have to flash the 3.32.xxxxx firmware inoder to work them. i think its better to use 4ext recovery.

Good to hear you're up and running again however you should still change to 4ext recovery, its built off cwm but it has some features that are needed to install many of the roms from this forum, and its pretty good at making and restoring backups

Hey guys, I love this site and im sort of a noob at rooting but I followed the step for true perm root on my mytouch 4g

that phone after the root was great literally permissions for everything. Then i wanted to trade my phone with my moms G2x and i become really confused. its running gb 2.3.3 and I found a guide to root it on this forum but i am wondering if it is a true permanent root like the one i got on my mytouch4g with s=off and stuff or is it something else. Noob question help plawks
Just have to flash recovery and a rom after you will have perm root and full su permissions. LG is an unlocked boot loader not like HTC in that sense.

Exactly. To be more precise nvflash your clockwork recovery then you will have a permanent recovery then flash whichever rom you want which will come with root.
If you want to stick with the stock rom and just have it rooted then use superoneclick and you will be golden. Hope this helps and welcome to the g2x

yeah i did the nvflash thing and put in cm7 rom. thing is I used my internal memory for rooting and it happens even after i was running cm7 cwm did not wipe anything from the internal memory even after i did wipe cache and wipe data stuff, huh. idk but everything works fine its just cm7 seems much slower than when i used it with my mytouch4g :O
Must've flown on it then lol.

Hey thanks for the reply. I have a question. I am trying to flash hellfire's ics v1.8 but like i said earlier i dont have an external sd just using the 8gb internal memory that came with the g2x should i do it? because you are supposed to wipe with cwm and i dont think cwm can wipe my data and cache because its supposed to wipe the external sd? or is that okay?
wiping data and cache and system will not touch your internal sdcard.
I have an Evo Shift that was running Android 2.2, then I clockworked modded it and accidentaly applied the cyanogenmod update before S-OFF, it can go to the clockword recovery screen and all that, It just stays on white screen when i reboot.
*NO BACKUP* Please help!!!
Search for the 2.2 RUU and run it. Then you'll be back to stock where you can root using the shiftrr.exe, I would link you to the RUU but I've been sick in bed for about 4 days now

No need for RUU.
Boot cwm and wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik, format /system and /data and flash cm7 and gapps.

He doesn't have s-off so he can't flash cm7.. Or did you not need that part?

I do not have S-OFF, what happened was I had Froyo 2.2, I temp rooted, downloaded Cyanogen mod whatever, got the clockwork recovery, and while in that accidentally Updated to Cyanogen, with no Backup, Now all it will let me to is the H-Boot screen (Fastboot, Recovery, etc.) and Clockwork recovery mode, it says i cant mount my SD and when it could it wouldnt let me update to froyo 2.2 saying its bad.

******************************************************EDIT**************************************EDIT****************************EDIT ************************** Also I tried the 2.2 RUU and it got stuck at 13%, I found a way around it( the way i downgraded the first time ), but I cant get the phone to work to do it again, as explained above.

It won't even mount it on phone, So it can't format and I don't know how to format it on the computer.
If I try to mount it, it says "Invalid Argument"
Error mounting SD Card
So where are you at? Does the phone Boot into Recovery? Did you finally get the RUU to run all the way through? Does the phone boot up like it normally would?
Well...

Okay, I can go to HBOOT screen (Where it list Fastboot, Recovery, Factory Reset, Etc.) It can boot into Clockwork recovery, and if it tries to boot normal, it stays at white HTC screen. Will not mount SD card, S-ON.
And No, the RUU will not run all the way through.

Did you get the RUU to run all the way through? So that you are " S-On " on Froyo 2.2. If you did then it is a simple matter of fully rooting the device to avoid this from happening again. You can use THIS to root if you are already on 2.2 .
Thank you,

Thank you, but I already have ShiftRR, thats how I clockworked mod it, It won't connect fully to the computer.
And No, The RUU didnt run all the way through. It stays at 13% [/RED]
I had to run the RUU in fastboot mode to get it to work for me

Fastboot?
You had to run it in fastbook mode, and it worked? I tried that and it still got stuck on me.
That's really strange the ruu isn't working. I've used it before on windows 7 and it worked ok for me. Maybe your missing some drivers or something for your phone? I've never ran ruu from fastboot so I can't help you there. What version of windows are you running currently? Also what ruu are you using? Is it the 2.3.4 one?
If you need a link to it I've downloaded it from here and it works for me:

If you dont have to, do not update to the 2.3.4RUU . Running the RUU from fastboot is simple. Boot into HBoot, the choose fastboot. Connect the USB cord, it will say fastboot usb. Then just open and run the RUU from the desktop.

To remove any sort of further errors, I think you should reinstall stock firmware and then try CWM again.

/cache
/data
/system
/sd-ext
4) reboot recovery..and...
done!..flash new rom as you wish..
