[Resolved] Phone bricked and /system format

Hello,
At first, i'm french, my english is maybe bad.
I was installed a CM9 Rom on my HTC One S. Run correctly, but no mobil data and network.
A friend advised to me format /system, newbie on Android, i accepted. But now Phone at bricked, i can't acces to Android.
My sdcard is not recognized by my computer, even if mount sdcard in recovery. I have flash CWM 5.8.2.4 and TWRP 2.1.7, but no results.
I'm in impasse ! Thanks you read me.
Good bye !

You are not bricked. As long as you can get into fastboot, you're good.
If you can not see your sdcard in recovery, there is a sticky in Q&A on how to fix unmountable sdcard.
If you can see your sdcard in recovery, there is a post in Android Dev on how to adb push a rom to your phone.
I dont mean see from your computer, but mount and see it in recovery when you choose a zip etc.. or in an adb shell.
-Jobo

Thanks for you answer,
I already test this solutions, but when i push a ROM with ADB, i have a message error "device not found", because a i can't boot on OS, just fastboot.
When i test fix unmount SDcard, i'm block when i do "factory reset", becaus in .log i see "E:Unable to mount /system" and "E:Unable to open ums lunfile: (No such file or directory)"

Can't you get adb when you boot into recovery?
Not being able to mount /system is worrisome. You could try formatting it.
The ums lun file is only to mount your sdcard on your computer. You don't necessarily need it.

Oh yes i can with TWRP, but i have this :
View attachment 1255479
c:\android-sdk\tools>adb push /sdcard cm-9-20120731
cannot stat '/sdcard': No such file or directory
And in my computer, i can see "Disque Amovible H:", but i can't open this.

You have the operands to 'adb push' reversed.
It's:
adb push local_file remote_file_or_dir
But first you have to make sure you can mount /system and /sdcard in recovery.

Thanks !! I have successful with ADB command ! Thanks really !
It's resolved, thank you very much !
Good bye !

[SOLVED] super wiped -> cannot mount/access sdcard -> bricked?

hi, help would higly be appreciated because i think i bricked my beloved tf101g ;(
while testing some roms i used the Super Wipe Full from mike1986 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1245892). this script failed - i don`t know why but (sh)it happend.
So my tf (b80, ww-epad-9.2.2.6-20120525) is wiped,
- no rom to start (last bevor wipe was CM10B2 - i think)
- cwm v5.8.1.8 touch starts but
- tells me: e:can`t mount /sdcard/
i spended hours on reading hundrets of "cannot mount" threads here but found no solution to my special situation. already tried several unbrick guides, did a hundred factory resets/formats in cwm, tried to mount data via cwm (error mounting /data), tried another microSD /btw: sdcard does not mean external sd but internal or am i wrong?), .... i cannot access the sdcard, so no way to flash another rom. adb is responding (0123456789ABCDEF recovery).
so, is there any way to use nvflash (b80!) oder adb (in recovery) to
a) get the sdcard back or
b) flash any rom / another recovery to get my tf back to life?
THANKS for any help!!!

look for easyflasher by whitekidney, it might help, it returns u back to stock, then u can root again and install recovery.

Thanks catfishbilly, unfortunalty whitekidney says:
Does NOT work for: TF101G (TF101 3G)
already tried peri 0.4 - which also didn`t helped me out.
not shure wether i did something wrong or tf101g is really not supported.
any other ideas? Thanks in advance!

found this solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24007127&postcount=276
Code:
mounted the external sd as /data
mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /data
adb push recovery.zip /data/media/recovery.zip
then go to 5.5.0.4 recovery , install , choose , and boom : recovery.zip ¡¡¡
recovery flashed , and rom flashed
I cant believe how easy it was to end , 5.5.0.4 is finally able to read external sd with this cheat.
AND: SUCCEEDED - Rogue on my tf101g, access to external!
problem with /data/ still exists, hope to find another thread with a solution....
Thanks to this great forum,

Hi
I'm having some problems before super wipe:
I used Super Wipe Full to erase everything because I was facing some problems on it.
I used a lot of rooms before.
Now I can just access CWM and when I try to install the room, it says: "no files found". I think is isnt reading the external sd.
I tried to send the from via cable, but my computer don't install the driver for it. I also tried to install the driver via asus page.
Any solution?
Thank you...

Easy fix for experienced user

I have access to recovery on my TF300T, I also have access to fastboot.
I can switch between Clockword and TWRP recoveries at any time.
I can not get a rom to load on my tabet. the recovery does not recognize external SD cards so I can not put a rom on that.
When I use fastboot to flash the default ASUS rom from their support website it does not boot it?
How could I have possibly bricked my device when I have access to both recovery and fastboot ?

Not sure I completely get what ur say in,but have u tried to put the ROM on ur internal storage and flash?

The recovery does not give me the option to mount my internal storage to my PC so I can put roms on it, is there any other way to get roms on the internal storage?
Btw I am running the latest version of TWRP openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-tf300t-JB.blob

Download the ROM on your tablet then boot into recovery go to downloads and it should b there.unless I'm just not getting what you are saying

Restore the backup to the ROM you were using before. As far as why the ROM won't boot, gatta talk to the dev.
He was trying to flash hydro 4.1 while already being on jb.

The problem is I can ONLY boot into recovery or fastboot. I can not get a ROM to load on my device.
I little back story. When I originally bought the tablet I immediately upgraded it to JB 4.1 stock rom. After that upgrade was done I downloaded and installed ASUS official boot-loader unlock-er. I then installed TWRP recovery and it was like that stable for months. Just recently (yesterday) I tried to install HYDRO rom and it would not load that rom. I tried using the TWRP backup I created but that did not work either. So I still have full access to both recovery and fastboot, I just can't get any ROM ZIP files into the flash of the device to install with TWRP. When I use FASTBOOT to install the stock ASUS rom it will not boot either.

OK I was like has he never flashed a ROM before I gotcha..

is it possible to use ADB PUSH to put a rom on my internal storage ?

adb push blob /sdcard/
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4
adb reboot
I would consider using the proper stock blob here ( jb for jb bootloader or ics for ics bootloader ). It can be had by unzipping a stock update.
If su fails try without.
mmcblk0p4 is staging and used by asus to update, etc.
1 /system ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (null)
2 /cache ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (null)

The yes you can type exactly. This assumes the file to push is located in the directory with adb.
The blob file is everything required to put your unit back to stock ( all required partitions ). (you will loose root and your custom recovery).
You could just use the adb push to place a flashable zip on your internal sdcard and flash with twrp or cwm.
The remainder of the info would be if you needed the partition designations and mounts so you would be able custom formulate what you wished to do. You can just forget it exists.
You could just
adb push yourfilename /sdcard/
and then flash with your recovery!
this could be a stock flashable rom or one of the custom roms (remember the bootloader must match ICS or JB of what you have installed in your unit).
Sorry I confused you!

yea that worked, I also got help from this LINK
on a side note, now that I have ASUS stock rom "US_epaduser_10_4_2_13_UpdateLauncher.zip" and TWRP 2.3.1.0 (newest).
is it possible to http://get.cm/?device=tf300t install those without any hitches, Like if I download the rom located at that link put it on my sd card and use TWRP to flash it, with what I currently am running will that work?

I'm glad you are working again.
I showed adb instead of fastboot because that was your request.
In theory yes CM10 nightlies should be ok OP shows JB ( everything has issues sometimes ). Nightlies for yesterday may work great and be totally broken today that is the nature of nightlies. No stable release for CM10 on tf300 shown. I have not used that rom. I have seen posts saying it is not for jb bootloader and others saying it is.
I would read some of the posts asking for help and try to make a decision from there.
I believe I looked at the source a short time back and saw it was based on 2.6 kernel. I decided from there to go another route. Don't quote that as I could be mistaken. Maybe I should look again, sometime.
Good Luck!
I'm not into over clocking. I would look at clean rom and hydro jb. I have used both and they are good daily drivers. No fluff, they just work!

search for the tool adb pusher here on xda. Then go to recovery. Now open adb pusher and you can send the file you like to your internal space.

OP has moved beyond the posted issue and is trying to decide on a non stock rom.
Suggestions?

[Q] How to push in adb when device not found?

Solved already, used different recovery that has an option to mount sdcard to pc so that I can move the rom for flashing.
Hi,
I have a china phone(oppo finder) that I have accidentally unmount the sdcard using miui recovery. The phone only comes with an internal storage. When I reboot the phone, it will only boot in recovery due to unmounted sd card. I cant use adb due to device not found. I tried searching for the driver but cant found anything that will make adb usable. I am able to go to fastboot and can still flash custom recovery.
Is there a way to push a rom to the sdcard or to remount the sdcard? Anyway I can utilize the fastboot?
Appreciate any help I can get! Thanks for your time in advance!

Problem partition 48mb

Hello, I have a problem with my one s, after the 's-off I installed the latest TWRP.
Mistakenly I did wipe the sdcard, now when I mount it by only 48 mb ...... How do I restore \ recreate the partition to 12gb?

here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45621060&postcount=68
If this twrp won't mount as usb storage, you should try flash twrp S4 in One_S_All-In-One_Kit_v3.5
If you can't boot in Android to copy a rom, you make this in twrp and Mount (push mount and back many time until you'll see usb storage in My Computer)
In command line
adb push HTC_One_S_-_MaximusHD_10.0.0.zip /sdcard/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and wait
HTC_One_S_-_MaximusHD_10.0.0.zip or your rom.zip, something like that.

I solved it by installing the recovery of maximushd via sideload Thanks Anyway!
