Do you have ADB setup? You can try and push a ROM file to the internal storage.
For Easy Flasher, you did put it in APX mode and you have APX driver install?

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

[Q] A problem with the os/rom

I was trying to reinstall my rom, so I format everything excepting the sd-card
but I did a mistake in the last part, I clicked format sd-card wrongly.
Now, I have no os or rom, and i cant run my android to put my files back to it from my laptop.
What should I do now?? I tried to install the rom (zip file) in the fastboot mode,
but it said i hv no system.img, recovery.img..so on..
p.s. my clockwork is still here, but just have no backup for the restortion.
Thank you very much to read this..

You're able to get into Clockwork by booting to recovery from fastboot if I understand your post correctly. (If you're not, you should be able to get there by flashing clockwork from fastboot.)
Once you have clockwork up and running, you might be able to plug the phone into your computer's USB port and access it via adb. If you have adb access you're cool. I think you can mount the sdcard from the clockwork mount options, then push the rom files you want to flash to the sdcard, then you can flash them from within clockwork.
If you need full images (I'm not sure all ROMs are full images, there's some fresh clean images in the Development section people are using for restores).

Can't Mount SD Card in ClockWorkMod Recovery

So ive been at this for 2 days. I finally got the micro sd card with both files to install rom but in clockworkmod recovery i cant mount sd card nor format or anything. I can mount and unmount in the normal settings of the device and see it in root explorer but thats it. Its formatted to fat32. also on rom manager where it says to install from sdcard it only takes u to the internal sdcard which makes no sense because i was told u cant install a rom from the internal sdcard.
PS. This is my first Android Device!!!!
yeah
I am in the exact same situation. I am rooted on 4.0.3 and I wanted to install 4.0.4 or one of the custom ROM's. This is not my first android device but I am at a loss. I can not enter fastboot, can't load anything from the SD card in CWM recovery (get the message E:Can't mount /sdcard/), can not connect via ADB on my PC.
I feel that I have enough skill to do all of this because I have done it in the past. My ADB works fine with my Galaxy Nexus (just updated that and installed new kernel) so I don't know what is causing the problem. I have tried different SD cards(3) as well and nothing.
The biggest problem is I can not get into fastboot and SBF if I wanted to. I have been having issues with drivers even though I have installed motohelper like 6 million times.
I have tried factory resets and wipes and everything. I tried to do the factory update that is being pushed to me and I get an error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry if this is stealing your thread but I think we are having the same problems.
check out my thread at xoomforums:
I PM'd it to u cus it dont let me put it here
Read all 3 pages. I think it will help u. posted same question there and a guy suggested to install the rogue cwm 1.5 recory via adb fastboot or whatever. he says that will read your sdcards. if i were u id try and fastboot on a different pc cus it looks like thats what we both have to do unfortunately. it looks like a pain!!! u have a xoom?
anyone figured out how to sort this?? really frustrating it just sayin E:can't mount sd card.. any help will be appreciated!!

If you are using CWM recovery from Rom Manager (not recommended for Xoom) it does only read your internal flash memory (called sdcard) but not your external microsd card (called external1???). So you need to flash a different custom recovery using adb/fastboot to flash a recovery.image file or, if you can flash through cwm (from internal sdcard) a recovery.zip file (either EOS or Rogue, depending on the ROM you will flash afterwards), Actually, any custom recovery is supposed to work for any rom, but in reality Eos works best for Eos and Rogue works best for the CM9 Kang.
Please, just remember, never flash a .zip file through fastboot, only an .image file!
+1 i agree with the above, fixed this last night. I download a couple recovery images, which were blank for some reason, so i downloaded the zips and extracted the recovery image folder. Then opened the command window from the folder with the recovery image and flashed it with fastboot. Now it works perfect.

I had to use fastboot to flash an entire stock config when I got stuck in this loop.

Thanks for saving the last half of my hair which I hadn't pulled out yet.
Got the backup on SD ONLY after flashing the EOS recovery 1.5.0 (i tried the latest to begin with, did not work, made it worse flashing recovery from ROM Mgr)
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/mot...ing-flashing-unrooting-under-one-roof-59.html has this particular recovery listed.
I still cannot boot in recovery using power+volUP...i have to get at least adb running. Any suggestion would be golden.

This is my first attempt at unlocking and rooting. So far I did manage to get unlocked. Now I am stuck at: Can't mount/sdcard . . . . .
I have been following the thread: [HOW] Rookie Rooting, Flashing And UnRooting Under One Roof
It seems to be layed out quite well and well, I'd never have gotten this far if it weren't for following those directions. I'm not discouraged because I know this is just a stumbling block. I can't wait to kill the bloatware and see if I can O/C this beast just a little.
Good luck to the folks who posted above me. I will post my results here.

I think the solution is much more simple...
The recovery uses normally e: an external sd card , you just trying by d: internal sd card , so take another sd card and dun let it be internal sd card...
And the recovery back on working with you

Stuck in possible CWM loop

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.

Stuck with ICS in CWM and no USB.

Upon trying to update my TF101 device to Jelly Bean using this guide (wiki.cyanogenmod.org/index.php?title=Install_CM_for_tf101), at the 6th step of Installing CyanogenMod from recovery (i.e., Select install zip from sdcard) the tab says it's unable to mount the SD card.
The exact error is: E: unable to mount /sdcard/
I have CWM v6.0.1.3 installed.
Now, I'm stuck with a TF101 that isn't detectable via USB (or APX for that matter) running ClockWorkMod without root. What do I do? I'd like to upgrade to JellyBean but if that's an issue, I do not mind sticking with ICS.
Bear in mind that I'm completely new at this and I might need a step-by-step guide.
P.S. - I can't post links. Sorry.
If you boot to ICS and enable USB Debugging in Settings - Developer Options, is your device visible from the PC?
If yes, then I would try using PERI to root and install CWM.
If not, then I would try installing the Hybrid Touch 6.0.1.2 of this recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1855686 Download the file in ICS, place it in the /sdcard/, flash from Recovery and see if it will let you. If you can see your microSD from recovery put it there. Then reboot and you should have a working recovery.
I have seen quite a few people try to use that wiki 6.0.1.3 and have no luck with mounting the /sdcard/

No such luck. Still not able to mount the /sdcard/ and it doesn't seem to recognise the microSD as far as I can see.
Might be a bad USB cable. I have seen a few users (myself included) where my cable would charge, and be recognized by the PC but it would not do APX or ADB. New cable fixed it for me, and most others.

It was working till right after I fell into this rut.
I used mine for ADB, 3 days later I tried it again and no dice. Thought it was the ROM I was on, tried another one, still no dice. Flashed back to stock rooted, still nothing.
New cable, viola!

[Help] No rom installed on my phone, help with installing it VIA ADB sideload.

So, I have/had a N5 on stock 4.4.4 rom, rooted & Xposed installed with TWRP & a lollipop preview on MultiRom.
Was installing the new Lollipop .zip. In an act of hurried stupidity, I wiped my phone, including the internal storage.
Which for some reason also wiped my NANDROID backup. I thought that is not supposed to be wiped even when doing an internal storage wipe, BUT it did.
Now, all i have is TWRP on my phone with no rom installed.
I tried connecting my phone to the pc to see if i can just transfer the rom file onto the internal memory, but nothing shows up when i connect my phone to PC.
after some searching, I came to know via this threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/how-to-wipe-internal-storage-install-t2575150 that i can use the ADB sideload to install the rom, using TWRP.
The problem is, when i connect my phone to the PC, the phone doesn't show up in the device manager.
So i cannot install the drivers & android SDK itself.
So, How do i Install a rom onto it?
I have a PC & a MAC, so i can use either of the machines. But i don't have much technical knowledge about stuff, I did all the above modifications with the help of tutorials & guids. so ELI5 please.
Please help!
Thank you.

Storage = including sdcard. You didn't need to do that.
If you have the latest TWRP, it has an MTP mode in the mount menu so you can simply copy a ROM.zip to the storage. Try enabling it and see if it shows up in devmgr.

Thank you for the reply.
Turns out, the TWRP i have does have the OTG option under the mount option.
I downloaded the zip from an Android Police article. I bought the phone in india & hence had the KTU84Q build of 4.4.4, So i downloaded the file mentiond in that & tried flashing it via OTG. But it is failing to flash the rom.
it shows errors like: failed to mount, Error executing updater binary & then error flashing zip.
So do i need to do anything else before flashing it?
I'm downloading a 4.4.4 rom. will see if that works. Until then, please help if I need to do something else.
Thank you.
EDIT: I flashed CM11 & it worked perfectly. then tried flashing the 5.0 zip again, but that failed. So i guess something's wrong with the zip file.
