cwm rom manager

rom manager has an option to install rom from sd, anyone tried this? maybe we don't need to wait for cwm recovery?

It still involves rebooting into cwr though

it shows the external sd card though and a message pops up when i try to it says, "installing a rom with a recovery other than cwm may not work properly." so it does NOT involve cwm recovery

Tommorrow ill build a cwm for us no time today

haha ok i'll stop spamming you and leave you alone will donate also

I will be anxiously awaiting a CWM recovery as well as an Odin TAR. I think I've experimented my phone to death and need to just start fresh again.

[Q] Can't mount /cache/

So I have read the other threads where people run into the issue of not being able to boot their phone back up but it isn't helping me with my G2X....
I am getting the error message of can't mount /cache/xxxxxxx every time I try and wipe my phone. I also am unable to flash any new ROMs or boot my phone into a normal state. Has anyone had this problem? can anyone help? I greatly appreciate it....

How did your phone get in this state? What did you do before this problem occurred?

I actually have no idea, I had just flashed an eagleblood ROM and it was working fine, I went to make a voice command and it froze, after 5 minutes i took the battery out and put it back in and tried to boot it up, that is where the problem began.

ive had this problem 1nce b4 dunno how either, but the rom 4 recovery thread in dev section fixes it no probs : D

hey thanks for the reply, i tried your suggestion and everything was sent to the phone successfully, but it is still stuck on the LG screen :-/

Have you tried reflashing CWM and wiping everything and trying a different ROM?

They don't stock them anymore, so if they don't have anymore in stock they say they give you the next best phone which in reality would be a Galaxy S2.
But they mean next best in terms of price, and since the Galaxy S 4G sells for the same price as the G2x used to sell for, that'll probably what you'll be getting if you return it and they don't have any G2x's left.

Hanging on Shutdown or Restart

When I try to use the power menu to do anything related to shutting off the phone (shutdown, restart, recovery, etc) it hangs as it's shutting down and freezes on the home screen - this just started last night. The only thing that ends up shutting it off is a battery pull.
Anybody else experiencing this or know what's up? I've cleared/formatted/wiped and loaded a couple of different ROMs to see if that helped but the problem is persistent.

That's not possible, man. You can't flash a different cwm in cwm. You tried to re-dl the touch version?

OK I got cwm touch to work right finally. But it still froze on restarts and shutdowns. So I wiped cache partition and dalvick cache now finally the phone restarts and powers down as it should.. so its confirmed now that to fix the freezing at shutdown/restart problem is to flash cwm touch. Also seems that the only version of cwm that works right with this version of ics is cwm touch. The old version will function but its possible that it will cause little bugs or quirks.
Thanks xcrazyd for the help now we know for sure what the deal is. I guess the touch I downloaded the other night was corrupted cause I just downloaded and installed again and it worked great....

Phone reboots/hangs on splash screen

I really would appreciate some input on this.. I was on NexusMod ICS for about two days before I woke up one morning to find that my phone had rebooted and was stuck at the splash screen. I tried pulling the battery and powering it on but got the same result, so I tried to get into CWM and couldn't. It would boot to recovery but not long enough to actually do anything, so I ODIN'd stock rom and CWM then flashed AOKP build 38 instead of NexusMod. Everything was fine for a few days but this morning I woke up to my phone stuck on the splash screen again, only this time when I pulled the battery and powered it on, it booted up fine, but my wallpaper had changed (weird).. So I really don't have a clue why this would happen, but I'd appreciate some help, and TIA!

Yes, that's a good idea, but wouldn't you think it would be an app that's causing it since it happened on two very different roms? Or am I way off in my thinking?

Had this issue with some roms when I was using cwm. Once I updated to cwm touch didn't have an issue.

[Q] G2x Bricked

I have read lots of post, but could not find any post related to my issue.
After flashing different ROMs and Kernels my G2x wont boot into any ROM.
I have tried "volume up and down", it wont recognize USB.
Only way I know phone is working is that it turns on and boots only into clockworkmode recovery.
Please let me know if you know any fixes for this issue.

It kinda sounds like u may of flashed the kernel. I flashed a ics kernel by mistake on a cm7 rom and it did what you described. I used a process called nvflash.

How did you do NV flash I am not able to connect to pc? Is it possible to run the zip from clockworkmod?
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk 2

Hey man, could you give us a little more information so we could try to figure out what is causing the issue? First off, did you originally install CWM with NvFlash?
Secondly, what was the latest setup (rom, kernel, gapps, tweak/mods, etc) that you flashed and in what order? Did you accidentally format or delete something you shouldn't have? Do you have the proper drivers installed for the phone to be recognized by your PC? Since you're able to get into CWM, try doing a full wipe and reflashing rom, kernel and gapps. Make sure sure to do a full data factory/reset, wipe both caches, format /system under mounts and storage, and try fixing permissions after flashing.

I believe I had Richie MIUI rom first with Mazout360 gb kernel then then I switched to different kernel. Phone wasn't doing well with any of those kernels so I went into recovery, wiped and flashed different rom. After which my phone didn't boot and was going straight into recovery. I wiped mount data/all of them; mount and unmount /all; used volk nulifier ; used scrub. I did all of that because I was not able to use USB / power volume up and down don't work neither. I don't know what else to do.

Try using a different USB cable and then flash ROM for recovery.

Thanks, but tried that as well and different pc and different cable. I can't figure out what went wrong. Good thing is that I got spare one and g2x now is very cheap.
