E: Unable to mount /cache - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I am trying to install the cm9 rom on my new att htc one x. I used the tutorials on oneXroot.net to unlock the boot loader and install twrp. When ever I try to install the rom, I get an error saying that
e:unable to mount /cache
I went to the mount option and tried to manually mount the cache but it wont. I saw some other videos on youtube, that were succesful in getting cm9 running using clockworkmod. I flashed that and clockworkmod won't even run. Please help. I hate htc sense, if the hardware wasn't so appealing I wouldn't have even bought this phone.

I don't think CM9 ROMs have been created for the HTC One X. My recommendation would be to go over to the One X Development forum and try out one of the ROMs listed there. I am running Clean ROM 3.1 Standard Edition with no issues, thus far.

We have an unofficial CM 9 port.
It sounds to me like the OP installed the CWM for the Tegra 3 HOX.
The one for our phone is here

Thanks for the install tool tip.
Hey,
So using the above link provided I was able to install the clockworkmod. But that is it. I am back to square one on installing the rom. Now I get this error instead.
E:Error in /sdcard/download/.....Roms name.....
I tried it with two unofficial cm9, exodised and endeavor, both of them give the same error. Please help.

There's a good chance your sdcard might be hosed. You might be better off checking this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740448&highlight=bricked) for next steps.

To reiterate the above, you are trying to install roms for a different phone. The international HOX has the same name but different internals.
There is only one cm9 for the AT&T One X, and it is still an alpha with various things not working.

Thanks a lot guys.
My confusion was the problem. I actually figured out that I was using the wrong roms and googled for the right one and managed to install it. I was just logging in to post this and found the answer already. Thanks a lot.
This is one of the best forums ever and you are getting a thanks.

Updating ROM with CWM just reverts to menu?

Hey,
I'm trying to install the [ROM] Team Tiamat Xoom Rom 2.2.2 - Moray [9/10/11].
I've got CWM installed (version recovery-Tiamat-R4c-100611-1150-cwm.img but also tried latest version from ROM Manager).
Each time i try to install the .zip it get's to opening package and then just exits to the CWM menu?
It's probably a common thing, but couldn't find anything from a search? Anyone got any ideas?
This has been covered many times so take the time to do a search.

I had to thank you Muffycheeks for your excellent answer. I am not sure why you did not at least give an indication about where to find the answer or what the issue is? Lucky this was posted in Q&A and not in the dev thread!
I am new to Xoom (only got it since yesterday) and have managed to get the bootloader unlocked and custom recovery installed. For some reason when I reboot the device the recovery is flash back to 3e (I suppose this has been also debated millions of times but I cannot find it yet...)
I had been able to flash one of the custom roms but it gets stuck in bootscreen. I wiped everything I could think of and followed a couple of advices and still not working.
I am downloading the other rom (as far as I can tell there are only 2 customs with one of them based on the other one) and will see if that works.
Sorry Addicteddddd for highjacking your thread but I have been searching for a while until I found your thread and I thought my issues were over to find the standard helpful XDA answer. Some people might have had their device for years but some other are quite new to this.
K.
EDIT: It seems that one of the recoveries do not advise if a ZIP file is bad and therfore comes back with no message. I suppose this is why this is happening.
I downloaded 3 ZIP files and they are all corrput. Not sure what is happening here but anyway.

I don't know if you used this guide but there is a bit of discussion of some issues regarding cwm recovery versions and some pitfalls while trying to flash.Check it out if you haven't

Also, how are you downloading the file? Are you getting the right version? If you are using the R4c v3.2.0.0 it should be called solarnz, not tiamat. The guide has the correct link.

Hi guys.
I'm a noob at this, so I really need some help. I followed the exact instructions in the noob guide to flashing in the general section. I keep trying to install different ROMs but so far I haven't successfully installed one -_- I get so close, and then when i try to flash the ROM when I'm in cwm it just says it fails. I really don't know what I'm doing wrong because I've looked up everything including the mounts and the exact instructions for certain ROMs. Please help, and if possible direct me toward an easier one to install. Thanks for listening to a tards complaints, any help is appreciated!

Hi,
Can you give a little more detail? Like what ROM you're currently on (Settings, About Phone, scroll to the bottom and check the "Firmware version" and the "Build number"), what the exact error is that you get from CWM, and what you are trying to flash?
Let's see, I'm using FroYo 2.2.1, with my build number being VUVKD1, two ROMs that I have tried to flash were valhalla v 1.3.2, and the Deodexed FIXED, the ones from the sgs4g bible. And the first error won't even let me look at my SD card once im in cwm. It says E: Can't mount /sdcard. When it does let me in, it says E: Can't mount /sdcard/T959VUVKD1_Deodexed_U1.zip and right below that it says operation aborted. Instead of the "Deodexed_U1.zip", whatever ROM i'm trying to install will appear there.

Big KUDOS to you for reading the Bible! Oddly enough I can't get to the Valhalla 1.3.2 thread. The one from the Bible is on version KI3 of the underlying ROM/kernel, which is a Gingerbread ROM. You're on Froyo which requires different boot loaders. The VUVKD1 Deodexed FIXED ROM is an updated version of Froyo and it should work. If you want to get on GB, I suggest hitting up the GB Ext4 starter pack here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223765
What strikes me as odd is you're saying sometimes CWM lets you see the SD card, but other times it does not. I'm a bit confused on that.
How did you get CWM installed in the first place?
I was thinking the exact same thing! It must be because I followed some sketchy video on youtube on how to do root this phone, which probably wasn't in my best interest lol. It's strange because the deodexed FIXED is the one that I tried, and it just doesn't want to work. I'm a little discouraged :/
btw thank you for your help!

No worries; glad to be able to help. We were all new at this at some point; I'm still learning as I go.
You could use ODIN or Heimdall to try and flash a ROM. Those are located in the Development section where you found the Bible. That might at least get you to a better starting point for flashing.
Sounds good, I'll definitely try that.

Alright, so Stephen, i used Heimdall One Click to get the KJ1 Kernel Stock ROM with bootloaders, and so far everything works fine. I'm now on gingerbread 2.3.6. My build number is now VUVKJ6, so is there anything that you would suggest doing now for custom ROMs? Thank you!
Glad you got it working. My best advice for the custom ROMs would be to test them & see which you like the most

[Q] Galaxy S2 Skyrocket - CM9 Nightly from July24th

After much reading through these forums, coming from never having flashed a ROM before, I was able to successfully flash and am thus enjoying CM9. I had been waiting for this to come out for the Skyrocket since I bought the phone last year, so, thanks
My question(s) is in relation to CWM Touch. I would like to update CWM to CWM Touch.
1) Is CWM Touch going to foul up any part of CM9? (that is, prior to CM9 i had CWM installed, but now due to "internetz confusionz" am unsure if the current version of CWM after CM9 flash, is one that came with CM9, or not)
2) Where I've read to basically never go near ROM Manager for flashing CM9 for now, what about using it to update its own CWM to CWM Touch? I see the option to do so but when I click it, it reads along the lines of "You must first install CWM before installing Touch"....which i thought i...or at least CM9 did..see question 1.
3) Alternate method to #2, I found " download.clockworkmod.com / recoveries / recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.3-skyrocket.zip "and have downloaded it. I thought perhaps I could simply flash this through CWM itself (due to another post somewhere saying this was ok, but it referenced a SGS2, not a skyrocket). Will doing it this way force me to reinstall CM9 (as yet, still other, posts on the internetz would have me believe?)
Overall the goal is to end up with CWM Touch and not have to reinstall CM9 as i've spent far too long customizing the crap out of (and enjoying) it.
thanks!
This is the general section. This thread belongs in the Q&A section.
General is for anything and everything so don't sweat it man. And for the using of ROM Manager I think you should be good to flash touch through it, although I have never tried. I flashed mine via Odin. As for the question will it affect your cm9 the answer is no.

Although I marked the post as a question during submission, I have no problem with an Admin moving my post to a proper section if it will yield more responses so that I may average out any and all contradictions as well as receive answers to all questions.
thank you
To answer your question, recovery has NOTHING whatsoever to do with a ROM. They are completely independent. You can flash any recovery and it will not affect your ROM. Some ppl had issues with the new CWM recovery so I would recommend you to stay away. I do not know if it was fixed. I would highly recommend sk8terwiki's (sorry sk8 if I butchered the spelling ) 5.5.0.4 v4.2 recovery in the dev section. Its the one I use and it gets the job done. He has a zip that you can flash in CWM. I have not used TWRP but heard good things about it. To install twrp just get goo manager from market, hit menu->install open recovery script.

rolled the (weighted) dice based on swisser's response.
I "Installed" CWM via Rom Manager. What this really did was update me from 5.0.0.27 to 5.8.4.3 for the skyrocket (after i chose it from a menu).
*As discussed 30 something pages deep in the CM9 General thread, this **BROKE** the ability to flash anything from *EXTERNAL* SD Cards. Flashing from Internal worked fine, so I rebooted my phone and copied over the 5.8.4.3 CWM Touch i had downloaded from the site in my first post, to my Internal SD Card. Rebooted back to CWM and flashed from internal SD and now i have CWM Touch Working.
I've run out of tools and toys to flash so i haven't tested if CWM Touch will flash from External SD, but according to that thread, it does.
One thing i've noticed *MISSING/REMOVED.../Moved(?)* (basically i couldnt find the ****er) was the ability to Mount USB Storage while in CWM. This was a handy escape route for me previously and i'm sad to see it (seemingly) gone in both TOUCH and NONTOUCH 5.8.4.3
Moved to Q&A. General is not for "anything and everything". General is meant for discussions and or news regarding the device . Questions belong in Q&A. Side note OP did you try looking for you answers in CM9 discussion thread in general as well?
Cheers

^^what prbassplayer said. you really really need to read. if none of these roms are working for you: you either dont have a skyrocket, or you're not reading all of the instructions. check out the dev section and the general section. if you read in both those sections you will find cm9. you could probably read my signature too... but dont go doing that until you do a lot of reading first. =/

[Q] Rom for Wife's phone

My wife has a Optimus T running the stock ROM. Her phone is out of internal storage space and I thought that this would be a good time to put something newer on it. I offered to give her my Galaxy Nexus or get her a Nexus 4 but she loves her phone. She thinks mine is to big and complicated.
I admit that I did not spend a lot of time searching for a solution for her phone and figured that you guys would know best about what is best for this phone. Is there a functional CM9, 10 or 10.1? That would be the best solution, IMHO for her. The main thing I am looking for is stability. Flashy ROMS with lots of bells and whistles are out. Basic ASOP type of ROM is what she wants.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help androidisfuture. If I broke the rules by posting a question in the Q&A forum, I am so sorry, I did not realize that this was not allowed.
I admitted that I did not spend a lot of time searching for an answer, but I could not determine if the P500 and the P509 use the same ROM. The threads that I did review were not explicitly state that they would work on the P509.
Try Gingersnap by neko. Use link2sd to extend memory.
Thanks to those that helped. I got CM9 on it and it is working great!

I guess its ok to ask this: for cm9 flash, what tool did you use? did you just load it via the manual boot-to-recovery and use cwm or twrp, or did you use something like Goo ?

I just used the latest CWM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523050
I have a lg optimus t myself. I rooted using super one click. Then from play store installed from manager aka clockwork mod. The rom I am using is the latest icy snap which has a built in app2sd thing. This requires formatting though so backup first. In fact its best to do a backup right in clockwork mod then store that backup on computer. Pm me if you wish. Once my power is restored and I have a regular keyboard I can give better instructions.

I read repeatedly that ROM Manager does not work on Optimus T/500/509 . before I restored a stock rom I had run it on my handset and I'm not sure what happened to be honest. i had a sorta half-installed CWM.... CWM itself was non-functional, but if I ran Nandroid Online Backup app [from the play store] it would work, stash a fresh backup in the CWM folder on the SD card.
I have read elsewhere that if you run ROM Manager several times, just as if nothing had installed on first pass, it will finally get cwm installed, but I don't trust it. Wish we had a "superoneclick" type tool for installing one of the good custom recoveries.
if anyone knows the term commands for installing cwm, or twrp, or whatever workable custom recovery, i'd love to hear of it - been looking all over but what I find is usually half-described, followed by many posts/replies of fails.

I have that winfastboot /android-flash-recovery tool - the problem with this handset, which is noted hundreds if not thousands of times, is to try [without a custom recovery] to boot to fastboot mode usually means you will not get fastboot but you will get to reinstall all your stuff again because it will reset your phone . so.. I'm willing to try amonra, twrp,, whatever someone claims has succeeded on p509 but just need plain instruction. there is no magic bullet like there is superoneclick for rooting. can't use goomanager. we see how well rom manager turned out.... if you happen to have a link to something that gives the steps to any of these including cwm I would be quite appreciative. I can't count the number of threads and youtubes, blogs, etc I"ve been through that are titled something like "how to install a custom recovery on optimus _[whatever]" only to find them linking to an xda thread, which in turn has no specific install steps :crying:, or worse... incomplete or erroneous.

CWM will not install over the Android recovery 3e ...

Now I want to try KK.
My Infuse is rooted but nothing will install - I get "failed to verify while file signature"

For the life of me I cannot get CWM installed on this phone.
How can it be done? I've tried Odin but don't work either.

Also tried the "modded 3e recovey" copying a recovery file to /system/bin.
I can do this but still have no CWM as the recovery menu.
So, whats happening is that Android system recovery <3e> recovery menu cannot be replaced
nor will it let me install a zip file. Every time I try to install CWM or any other
zip file, I get:

I am not familiar with that method to install CWM. Usually one would flash an infused kernel via ODIN. Are you AT&T or Rogers? That would determine your method.
On mobile now so myself looking it up is difficult, but what you need should be in either the General or Development forum. Try searching for "infused CWM".

Easiest method would probably be option D:

What I had done when I bricked my Samsung Infuse months ago was that I had used PHONE_UCLB3.tar.md5 for PHONE selection in ODIN. I had JB running but the performance was poor and messing with it
I had bricked my phone. Then when I was able to recover back to Froyo, I said f*ck it and quit messing with it.
Doing what I did several months ago to unbrick my Infuse locks in the Android recovery menu.
Yesterday I was experimenting and used option C to get it working now -- i.e. using I997UCLB3-CWM-root-deodex-extras.tar.md5 for PHONE. I suppose either option C or D would be OK as those provide the red recovery menu for Froyo. I was scimming over all the various texts and had missed the details.
Boy this stuff can be complicated unless one stays with it - AND READ EVERYTHING CAREFULLY.
I'd made a lot of notes when I did this months ago but still it was vague.
Now its coming back to me and I think I'll start hanging out here to learn more about these ROMs.
Not knowing which is better, I chose to install Carbon Kit Kat nightly on my Samsung Infuse. I noted that Bean Stalk did not have any
recent versions and just assumed there was more activity with Carbon. Is Carbon as good as it gets or are there better choices????
Thanks
Carl

It's all subjective, but with the time I used it I think Carbon is as goods as it gets.
There's CyanFox, which I didn't try, which is still quite young. CM11 and BeanStalk have been getting updates, it's just their key developer is absent right now. But there is a bug with CM11 and BeanStalk that leaves ADB unable to work. If you plan on using ADB, I would stay away from those two. Other than that, I did like the BeanStalk experience when I used it, but in the end wished I switched to Carbon earlier.

Disable voodoo lagfix and you should be good to go. If not, try downloading a different kit Kat Rom (one with a working link).
