Hello everyone! I just downloaded and moved an install zip of a ROM to my sd card using root explorer. Problem is I had wiped everything beforehand in recovery without confirming that the zip was on my sd card! I was sure it was on there as I had done this many times before, but I couldn't find it using TWRP.
How can I fix this? I have an sd reader but it doesn't support sdhc
Try looking in data/media folder. Had that happen to me and that's where it was

I swear I looked everywhere, but I'll double check. Is this an issue with TWRP? I never had a problem like this with CWM.
So how do I boot into recovery with the phone off now?

With cwm i had no issue like this. With TWRP i did.
Press and hold volume up +home + power
Thanks! Wish me luck
So frustrating! I know that the damn zip is on there somewhere, but I can't see it! I checked data/media and found TWRP, but no zip. You found the zip on the external card in data/media and not the internal storage correct? Any other suggestions that I can try other than getting a compatible sd card reader/adapter?

Where did you put the file?
I found it on the internal storage as thats where I had my file.
did you use the file manager function in advanced to look for it?
and in the future make a folder called 3 and put all flash-able zips in it
i use the 3 becuz recovery has numbers at the top of the list
I always download and move the zip to the root of my sd with root explorer before I flash. Never had any problems until using TWRP. Not saying it's not my fault for not making a backup first, but something screwy is going on with it. I'll be going back to CWM.
If you can't find it... Download the file on your computer... Connect to your phone computer as disk drive... Transfer the file into a recognized folder and then flash it...

yes I used the file manager, but didn't find anything. I think what happened was that the zip was on internal storage and was erased when I wiped. Not sure how it was in internal storage because I'm almost positive I moved it to the root of sd before booting into recovery. I could be wrong though.

I've never used TWRP but from the recovery you should be able to mount your phone/ sd card to your computer and transfer files... might be called mount and storage or something close to that...
I know enough to get me into his predicament!
I used this to root (don't think I used Odin with that), but I do remember messing with it for something else as I do have it installed. So I'm no expert as you can tell!

ok go to the link above download Odin (extract to the folder) and the root66 tar
put them in a folder on your desktop
put your phone in download mode and plug in cable
(Turn off Phone
Hold down Volume Down + Power + Home Button
Press Volume Up when Prompted after the security warning)
Open up ODIN
Put the stock.vzw_root66.tar in the PDA section
Select box: Auto Reboot
it will take awhile "do not unplug" wait for it to say pass it will reboot on its own

Hi All.
I'm new to this and trying to install my first rom (aiming for cynagenmod 7- it has the language support i need, or so they say)
I rooted my phone and followed a yourtube video titled "How To Install CyanogenMod 7 Nightly on T-Mobile G2x after Nandroid Backup"
When i get to the part where i need to install zip from sd card, i can't find the file. I went back and copied the zip file into a few different folders, and although i can locate the folders, it tells me that the file cannot be found.
How do i get around this? Your help is much appreciated.

How did you download it? Through rom manager or from the phones xda app, browser? Look in folders with xda or rom manager?? Next time just copy and paste it to the root of the sdcard, not in a folder.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Downloaded it on a computer and then copied it to sd card
and you can't find where you put it? did you place it in a certain folder already created... you can plug your phone in to pc then enter recovery mode, go to storage and mounts at the bottom select mount usb then copy the zip to your sdcard in no folders.
When i try to do that t tells me unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory).
From recovery mode there are some folders i can't see when i browse the folders on the computer when the phone is booted up normally - and vice versa. Is this an indicaiton of a problem?
Silly question: do you actually have an SD card inserted in your phone? If so, what did you use to format it?
i do have an sd, and i actually didn't format it. should i format? if so, what is the best way?

Did you try, while in recovery, taking the back off your phone, pop out the sd card, wait 1 second, then pop it back in?
Stupid question, but it's a mistake some beginners make, but did you unzip it by any chance? That could be a reason CWM isn't seeing it. Once you DL the ROM you need to leave it untouched. Then place on SD.
After that in CWM go to choose zip from sd.
And you attained CWM via NVFlash correct?

Maybe you accidentally copied it to internal memory instead of the sdcard. You can check in cwm under internal sdcard I believe is what it is called.
When you connect the phone through USB it mounts both internal and the sdcard.

My file explorer sees it in both the root and the folder I created in the root - both can't be seen in recovery mode.

you may have put it on the "internal sd card" instead of external sd card, however this is not an issue if you flash CWM 5.0.2.0 or later, it has an option to install zip from internal sd and external. i renamed my external sd card to avoid future confusion (otherwise i see two "removable disks" when i plug my phone into my computer)
Check your file names on your SD card. Check what you see listed in Recovery. If you see differing file names, then you're accessing the wrong memory.
I'm going to assume you tried booting with the physical buttons. Try booting with CWM which should give you a blue menu.
i did try to boot both ways and both times i did not find it... for the millionth time i took the sd card out and put it back in and rebooted using cwm, and funny enough, it found the direcotry... and yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, cynagenmod7 is my new rom
thanks for all your help, support and commiseration... really, much appreciated. i do ve a few more issues that i have to research now... again, external sd not found though... will probably solicit more help
again, thanks

Don't unzip the file. When you flash anything via clockwork, it flashes using .zip files.
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.

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).

You should use the CWM 6.0.1.0 version. Also, the best idea is to use a secondary SD card, not the internal storage. You will notice that in the recovery, the option names are wrong. The one that says "external" is actually your internal storage.

You need to copy it to the external card if you're staying stock, either in /extstorages or /emmc, depending on hc or ics. Sdcard is your internal partition

Rooting Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus GT-P6200
Here is what worked for me. I got a lot of help from a lot of people on this site, so I want to share the knowledge.
I downloaded two files (which are attached to this post).
Put both files on your EXTERNAL SD CARD. If you don't have one, get one.
Boot into recovery mode. To do this, shut off your tablet and then press the power and volume up button at the same time. When you see the Samsung logo, let go of the power button only. When you see the next graphic with the android you can let go of the volume button. You should be in recovery mode now.
Use your volume up/down button to highlight 'apply update from external storage' Press power to select
Use your volume up/down button to highlight cwm.zip and press the power button to select it
** When cwm appears DO NOT use the volume +/- buttons anymore. Instead use the touch screen to do the rest of the procedure
In CWM use your finger to choose 'install zip from sd card'
Now, (not sure why) use your finger to tap 'choose zip from internal sd card'
Use your finger to scroll down until you see the root.zip file that you copied to your sd card and tap it
From here, you're good to go. I have no idea why I had to choose the option to choose zip from INTERNAL sd card, especially since I didn't do so. But, regardless, this worked for me. I installed Superuser and Titanium Backup without a problem.
I hope this helps you. I am by no means an expert at anything Android, but this site did go a long way with helping me out. I hope I was able to do the same for others.
One thing I did not understand is why, when I was asking for help with rooting my tablet, people suggested I use Mobile Odin. Mobile Odin requires the tablet be rooted to use it, so using Mobile Odin to root isn't possible unless I am misunderstanding something.
Edit: Now I am embarrassed. I just found this, after the fact.
You're almost there!

I got confused with that too, but I succeeded:
Sorry, Christiaan, but YES, there on the bottom you will find INTERNAL CARD too.
When you choose INTERNAL CARD, in fact it uses you SD CARD.
After choosing INTERNAL CARD, you will see your SD CARD folders. Then you will be able to root it!
go ahead, man!

OK. So here after having some time to sit down after work to get a full idea of what is going on.
I have 2 different ROMS with zips to flash. One is a stock 2.3.4 rooted....the other is ParanoidAndroid CM9 with everything needed to run it.
2.3.4 has caused my phone to read the SD Card as _ExternalSD as a folder.
When on the phone through Astro or through ROM Manager I can find and view the ZIP files on my memory card.
I flashed CWM via NVFlash and CWM is installed on the phone but the issue that comes up is that when I navigate to the _ExternalSD folder and open in within CWM it only has a data folder and all other folders are missing and the ZIP file that is in the root of my SD card is no where to be found.
What can I do??
Don't navigate to that folder. In CWM, your external is simply just that, your external. So when you go to "Install zip" always pick from "choose from external" or however it's worded. It isn't in your internal in that folder that's called _ExternalSD... think of that like more of a shortcut on your ineternal sd card to get to your external sd more easier in file exporers.
So once again, in CWM go to flash/install zip, and choose external SD and it should be there. _ExternalSD is just a quick shortcut for file managers to locate your external.
That isn't the issue. I chose install zip from SD Card....It brings up a list of all of my folders. I have a zip in the root of my SD and it doesn't show up. I have the other zips in a download folder....That folder will not open. None of the other folders will open. The only folder that WILL open is the folder called _ExternalSD........When I open that folder it brings up the SAME list of folders but no ZIP shows up in the root of that folder and when I open my download folder it shows a data folder in it and no files or ZIPs
Nothing???
What do you mean though the folder won't open? Do you get some sort of error or something?
When I boot into CWM and go to install from SD card and what not it brings up the folders that are in the root of my SD card.
There is a ZIP file in the root that does not show up in CWM. My other ROM is located in my download folder.
If i go to the download folder i see and select it the screen blinks and goes to the same list. The folder does not open.
If I go to my ExternalSD and the only folder that shows inside there is a data folder.
Maybe it's a corrupt or incomplete zip file. Hmm have you tried formatting your external at least? Not via your phone but format with an adapter directly to your computer.
Weird problem, but trying to help as much as I can.
Yeah it is a super weird problem. I can try to format the SD card and see what happens.
I don't see that working but I am going to give it a shot but any other ideas on what it could be i'm down to check into.
My last G2x was rooted fine cracked the screen and ended up getting another G2x and now it won't root. LOL super frustrating. I've rooted so many and this one is just being a pain lol.
So far reformatting is not working. Its not doing anything. I'm so dumbfounded as to what is going on.
Try a complete nvflash again? With clockwork 5.0.2.0?
How would I do that? I thought about trying that but I can't seem to be able to get it to reflash it.
How do I boot the phone up so the NVFlash will work. When I plug it in NVFlash cannot find the device
Alright so I think I've figured out the issue now I just need to come up with a solution.
ROM Manager says I am on 5.0.2.0 but when I boot into CWM it shows I am actually on 4.0.1.5.
So I need to flash 5.0.2.0......Issue is here tho that I cannot flash it through ROM Manager and I can't seem to get NVFlash to work in flashing 5.0.2.0.
Can anyone lend some advice on that?

I'm trying to root and I'm following the guide posted for the BLK3 firmware (I'm on stock OTA Jellybean); I have two problems and am hoping someone can help: the first is that I don't know which folder is my SD card. Is it the SCH-I535 folder that appears when I plug in my phone that says "phone storage" and has several folders like: "DCIM, Alarms, etc," or is it the folder titled: "CD: G" that has a couple of Verizon apps on it? Also, when I tried to drag the SuperSU file and the Bootloader file into the SCH folder it wouldn't allow that--there was a black circle that popped up over the folder. I have USB debugging checked, btw. Of course, I also have MTP checked. Could that be a problem? If so, how do I uncheck it? It won't allow me to.
If you cant transfer the file to your phone just browse to the post on ur phone and download via your phone. Im to lazy to plug my phone into my computer personally so I just use dropbox to transfer anything I want to my phone, or airdroid if its a bigger file.
If I download them will they save to internal or external? That's my problem

I've done it three times now, but no matter how many times I flash it (Odin says recovery imagine nand write start, RQT_Closem RES_OK, etc," and once I go back into Odin mode I don't see the custom recovery. :l

I tried going to mnt > extSdcard > move file and it wouldn't allow that. .it's effectively locked down. >.< Should I try something other than ES file explorer?
Turns out it didn't have an SD card in. So I just put the one from my Rezound in--we should be good now. O:
It says "custom binary download: 4 counts;" which I know is because I've attempted to flash my custom recovery four times--but every time I reboot after doing that it still gives me the Samsung recovery. What to do?
