Hi!
Can someone help me?
I was trying to install megatron, with rogue's recovery when an error ocurred and left me with no rom on my transformer.
Then I installed touch recovery and tried again with no luck. Now, i can not install any .zip from my microsd.
What can i do? I can not go past the bootscreen! Is there any way to push any zip to my internal memory with adb while on recovery!
Thanks!!
You know the Team Rouge can read the external micro sd card right?
Use ADB to push file to internal sd.
Also of your TF is nvflash compatible use that
Yeah, i know. The problem is, how can i go back to rogue's recovery?
Or even install any .zip? I cant use ADB while on touch recovery... and nvflash is out of question since i have a B80...
Please... Does someone know how to access through ADB while on touch recovery? Which drivers should i install? I've used adb before!
Can someone please tell me how can i use abd while on touch recovery?
I've used it before when the transformer had a working rom and know i can't... do i need any special driver? I've read somewhere about a adb testing interface driver, is that it?
[SOLVED] Had to manually choose and install the Asus ADB Device driver in the Device Manger. Now adb recognises the transformer while on recovery mode.

How to push a .zip file into the internal memory. A friend of mine had the same pbl and now recovery doesn't recognize any micorsd ?

be something like this
Code:
adb push romfile.zip /data/media
romfile.zip need to be written exactly as your rom file is name

I guess this method works only with Rogue XM Recovery v1.3.0 bcuz it's the only recovery that has option to install from internal memory, the rest of recoveries don't work, Right? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Roach's 3.2.0.1 read from external micro sd card
Team Rouge Read from internal and external sd
CWM 5.5.0.4 and touch version 5.8.1.8 read from internal sd only.
If you have Team Rouge or Roach 3.2.0.1 there's no need to push file to internal sd as it read from external micro sd.
If you have 5.5.0.4 or 5.8.1.8 and have wiped everything you need to push something back to internal to flash.

I recently flash one of the g2x to bionix 2 and it does not recognize the microsd anymore.
How can I go back to another rom without using sd card? It boots up and loads fine.
Clockworkmod recovery will still recognize it. Did you try booting into recovery?

No recovery won't delete the files on your memory card during a normal wipe of user data.
You can also get into recovery by powering off the phone and then holding the volume-down and power buttons at the same time until it boots into recovery .... assuming you nvflashed the recovery to your phone.
i can use nvflash to get into recovery, but when i try to browse to sd card, nothing.....

Which recovery did you flash? There are 2 versions. One mounts the internal memory and the other mounts the external sdcard. Make sure your files are in the appropriate location for the recovery you flashed.

i did both and they did not work, i ended up with the external.
wat u do mean by files are in appropriate location ? i thought i can put those rom files on the root of the sd card.

Yes you're correct. You can actually have them anywhere you want on the sdcard. What I meant was they need to be on whichever "sdcard" your recovery is mounting, whether its internal or external.

The only other suggestion I can come up with would be to flash the other recovery, the one that mounts your internal memory. Use a file explorer app on your phone to move the rom .zip to your internal memory and then boot into recovery and flash.
Maybe your external sdcard slot is fried? I dunno. If its not recognize by your OS or recovery then it seems like a hardware issue. Just my opinion based on what you've been describing.
Galaxy S2 GTi9100
Hi,
I rooted my phone today and am now trying to install Cyanogen Mod. I followed all steps on their Wiki but now am facing a problem.
- The wiki says "Place the CyanogenMod update.zip file on the root of the SD card. "
- I placed the update .zip file on the root of the external sd card. Seems like that was not what was intended.
- I followed these steps successfully:
Boot into the ClockworkMod Recovery.
Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side volume buttons to move around, and either the power button or the trackball to select.
Optional: Select backup and restore to create a backup of current installation on the Samsung Galaxy S II.
Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.
Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.
Select Install zip from sdcard.
Select Choose zip from sdcard.- The next step is "Select the CyanogenMod update.zip. "
The problem is I don't see the CyanogenMod update .zip file anywhere in that list. Seems like I may have placed it in the wrong sd card?
When I try and reboot it just comes to the screen with the giant S and goes no further.
How can I resolve this problem?
Adding some more information after reading a few other threads.
- Looks like I placed the cyanogen mod update .zip file in the external sd and not the internal one (stupid!!).
Now I cannot get back inside the phone to try and place it in the internal sd.
How do I solve this?
Connect the phone to the PC and mount usb in recovery. You should see a storage device in windows & then just copy the files on it.
Ok. Just tried that. After I select 'mount usb storage', the next screen says on the top:
USB Mass Storage device
Leaving this menu unmount
your SD card from your PC
I then see an option to unmount.
On Windows explorer, I don't see the device.
Thinking back, I may have unchecked 'USB Debugging' before I started the process (for some reason that I cannot remember now). Would that cause a problem?
USB Debugging should not matter because you're in recovery.
I've not understand at well the question. You want flash the CM9 from clockwork mod? I've a Galaxy Gio, but in my case i have only to:
1 - copy the ROM in the root( after flash with manager of Android, with an SD adapter or in the other possible way)
2 - backup the old rom from cwm;
3 - reboot in cwm and if i have mount errors of /cache /data or some other partition i format it and mount it manually from cwm
4 - flash the zip i've copied at step 1
Then you have to wait and at the end, reboot.
What goes wrong in these steps for you ?
EDIT: If you don't see the .zip try to remove SD and use a SD Adapter, so you can copy files manually. Or if you want use CWM you can mount the device connecting device with USB cable, go in clockwork and do "mounts and storage -> mount USB storage" and copy files in the root "/"
You can use adb push command in recovery to push files to the phone.
You can also use fastboot to flash image files to the phone.

Step 1 went wrong
I copied the ROM in the external SD instead of internal sd. Now trying the adb option to push the ROM into the device root. Hoping that works.

This guide is same as my gio guide. The ROM goes in the root of external sd, not in internal memory. Try to reinstall CWM if you don't find the zip.

Thank you my friend. This worked!
Little did I realise that this simple sounding statement above would require me to set up a complete android development environment on my computer.
I'm still not sure if all that was needed but I was finally able to get the files on my device by doing an adb push.
Lovely education for me today!
Glad it helped. Sorry I forgot to mention that ... it's kinda natural to me (having the sdk installed).

I am (or was at the time of this post) a complete noob with no programming qualifications but now I have gone through a crash course.
I now have my S2 running CM7.
Hello,
I rooted my tf101, all went well. Put clockworkmod recovery on it and still no problems. Now I wiped all partitions by mistake of my tf101. The only thing left is the recovery image (cwr) but if i try adb tool to push a file on the system it says the system is readonly. If i try nvflash tool is also says error onable to write and it disconnect the tf101.
Can any body help me, or do i have to put it back to repair
thanks Ernst
Well, if you have a microSD card, and a CWM that can read from it, you could just hook the card up to your PC (using a phone with microsd slot, or a cardreader, etc) and place the new image on the card.
Also, have you tried running 'adb root' to make sure ADB is running as root?
@Goatshocker
I tryed to insert a microSD card, but cwr does not recognize it, at least it does not appear in the menu structure.
Also tryed adb root, it sayed hat it is already in root.

If you are using cwm 5.5.0.4, go to the following link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23256536
@kokopopz
I have indeed version 5.5.04, have read the tread you mentioned, but no solution. My problem is that if i try to push a file to the TF than it says "read-only file-system". Tryed in cwr to fix permisions, but no help.
Problem stays the same.
@kokopopz Thanks for your link.
I Found the solution !!!! My TF is UNBricked. YES YES YES.
For the record: "adb push rom.zip /data/media/rom.zip" will do the trick, after that reboot to cwr and do install zip from sdcard.
So i installed CM9 on my transformer and everything was ok. Eventually it turned off for some reason and kept getting stuck in a boot loop. I wiped everything using CWM 5.8.3.4 but now my tablet is stuck in CWM with no ROM to load. I cant mount my ex SD card and i cant mount my internal storage either. What do i do to fix it?

Do you have ADB access - i.e. is it visible on the PC? If not, first try cold reboot (Power + Vol-down for 12 seconds, then wait) undocked from keyboard and with USB disconnected.Connect to PC via USB and reboot to try to get ADB. If you still don't have ADB I'm sorry I don't know how to help.
If you have ADB, try this - it works on my TF101G. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1681155 and download PERI-0.4 One click root+recovery V0.4. Install it on your PC, run the .BAT file and follow the instructions. That should hopefully give you Root and Rogue Custom recovery that allows you to flash from internal or external SD.
From here you can flash a custom ROM from either internal or external storage. I've found that this Recovery won't flash the Asus stock ROM though,
If you want a version of CWM Recovery that will flash from internal or external storage, now download ClockWorkMod Recovery v6.0.1.4 NoTouch Hybrid from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1855686 - click the Download link and get the cwm-6.0.1.4-notouch-hybrid.zip file (apparently the Touch version is currently broken). Copy to internal or external SD, reboot to recovery (Power+Vol-down for 12 secs, then Vol-up), wipe caches and flash CWM Recovery.
When you next reboot to Recovery, you should have a version of CWM that allows you to flash from internal or external SD.
There are other links you could have a look at too, e.g.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1681155

Hope you do manage to get it unbricked again.

Hi everyone,
I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (P3100) and I have rooted it and installed CWM so I could install the latest CM release. But when I try to install the CM zip file, it says "some symlinks failed". Now my tablet won't boot, the splash screen with "Samsung Galaxy Tab 2" keeps on forever. But I still have access to CWM and the Download mode so I think everything's not lost yet
Here are the exact steps I did:
- Uploaded the CM image (cm-10-20121213-NIGHTLY-p3100.zip), the gapps zip and the root zip to the tablet.
- Installed heimdall on my computer, with the correct drivers.
- Flashed CWM on the tablet.
- Installed the root zip on the tablet using CWM.
- Booted the tablet again just to make sure rooting was enabled (yes, it was).
- Opened CWM again, wiped data, wiped cache.
- Installed CM image:
--- Error: some symlinks failed (status 7)
- Installed the gapps zip file (worked)
- Formatted /system
- Installed CM image:
--- Same error: some symlinks failed (status 7)
I wanted to try another CM images, maybe that one is broken, I don't know, but now I cannot upload more files to the tabled internal SD card. I can't mount it anymore on my computer because the tablet won't boot. I tried using an external SD card (from another Android phone I have) but CWM says "Cannot mount /external_sd" when I try to mount it.
Can anyone help me? I want to flash the latest CM on my tablet.
Thanks!
This seems to me like either a broken recovery or maybe a corrupt download. What version of CM are you trying to flash? Also, what version of CWM are you using and where did you find it?
Posted from my Fascinate using XDA Premium
Yeah, I also think the download was corrupt. I tried flashing cm-10-20121213-NIGHTLY-p3100.zip (the latest one on the day I flashed) and my CWM version is 6.0.1.1. I downloaded it from ClockworkMod official website, they say that is the latest version for my tablet model.
I believe CWM is working and that the image is corrupt, but I can't find a way to flash another CM image because I don't know how to put another file inside the tablet, or how to flash an image from my computer to the tablet. Can I use something like heimdall to flash a CM to my tablet? Can I upload an image to the tablet so I can use CWM to install it? "adb push" doesn't work, it doesn't detect my device in CWM mode. Do I need some working/stock Android image on the tablet so I can flash CM over? Or it will work no matter what's installed (given that the download is not corrupt)?
Thanks!

Please tell me you made a backup after rooting and before modding?
If you didn't (which it sounds like), BAD CRISTIAN!!! But this will make you learn to do it from now on, huh?
Which leaves you only two options, both include using a computer to get a ROM zip to the tab...
1- connect tab to computer in recovery with usb cable and download a new copy to SD card via computer.
2 - remove SD card from tab, place in computer card reader, and download a new copy to SD card via computer.

How exactly do I download a new copy of the image to the SD card? When I plug the tablet to the computer, I can't access its files. It used to show me the files when the Android system booted, but on Recovery mode it won't display them, the filesystem isn't mounted. Should I do anything special? Should I use another CWM version?

Pull the ext sd card out of the tab and put it into a card reader on a computer using the adapter the micro sd card [should have] come with.

Possibly... However if you can mount your internal sd card, you should be able to place the zip on there. I don't usually suggest using internal, but if that's what you gotta do....
I found out why I couldn't mount my external SD card with CWM: I had to format it with FAT32! I don't know what filesystem there was before, the SD card I have was used by an old Éclair phone. I still couldn't install others CM 10 images (I really don't know why), but I managed to install CM 9 and the brand new CM 10.1.
Thanks, guys! =)
