I trying to flash new ROM
PC is able to use fastboot utilities ok but just wont detect it as a removable storage device so i cant load any ROMS onto the SD
i try to mount USB with CWM and it gives the error E:Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)
if i let the phone try to boot normaly i get about 10 seconds of home screen and it reboots and cycle continues.
but while phone is connected and running home screen i get a new CD drive which i cant access and also device manager reports HTC with drivers required.
problem is HTC dont have drivers and phone re boots within 10 or so seconds and when it does the device vanishes
ive read through all the threads with similar issues but none have solved my problem.
my phone is bricked until i solve this and im freaking out cause its only 5 days old.
ive been reading forum for past 2 days and nothing has helped me
USB mount has never worked on CWM for our device (Snapdragon S4 version of the One X). Its a known issue.
CWM doesn't really support our device, its just a port. And it has huge issues (USB mount being just one of them) because of that. You can install a custom recovery that actually supports our device, TWRP. Head over to the Development forum and find the TWRP thread, and it should tell you how to flash TWRP over adb.
Most (if not all) of our devs recommend being on TWRP.

Hi there I have a problem
My problem is that i've just root'ed my HTC Desire (I think?)
But my Desire won't boot right.. It only boots to recovery mode...
If i try to install an update.zip with clockwork it says can't read sd card
Pretty much anything i do on clockwork it says "E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory) E: Can't mount SDCARD:"
I have also tried adb but it says device not found
My computer registres my Desire when i plug it in but it doesn't recognize it..
What shall i do next?
Ps. I am running windows 7 x64
Sorry for any spelling errors i hope you understand and are able to help me
I had a similar problem. Try booting into clockworkmod recovery, connect your phone to your PC and select mount USB (or something like that) from the partitions menu. This should give you access to your SD card on your PC. Next, backup the contents of your SD card and then delete all partitions. I used gParted but i guess you can use disk manager in windows. One deleted, don't format the card or anything, just reboot the phone and hopefully you should boot up OK. Now you can format the SD card from within Android. Before you do all this is might be worth removing your SD card and seeing if you can boot up OK without it.
Thanks for reply
When I choose to "mount usb storage" nothing really happens it is not getting recoqnized
The phone won't boot without sd-card
Do you or anyone else know if you can sync your desire from recovery mode?
One step further
Okay i now got one step furter
My phone can now start up, but it still can't registre sd card
It just says sd-card removed
Any ideas
have you tried the "mount usb" option again? Although nothing appears to happen on the phone, you should be able to access the card from your PC. it worked for me in both Win7 and Ubuntu. Other than that I can't think of anything else apart from trying a different SD card.
I can't choose mount usb storage any more.. I can't get into clockwork
Now, when i press recovery I get into a black screen with at red triangle and i can choose from 3 or 4 things, inluding wipe and apply udate
I've allready tried a diffrent sdcard
Similar problem but extra issues
Searched for hours and been in a live chat a number of times and posted on another forum but can not find specific solution.
I wanted to install this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=789830 HD rom so I partitioned my sdcard (successfully, to ext3 1.5gb, 33mb linux swap, rest fat32) and started wiping via ClockworkMod recovery.
That is when I ran into problems.
Now I can not mount my sdcard - "E:Can't mount /dev/blocl/mmcblk0 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1) (invalid argument) Error mounting SDCARD:!"
When I reboot, it just loops.
WinXP will detect my device via adb (when in recovery) but can't see the sdcard.
I had never used fastboot, so I am not sure if I am typing commands correctly.
Htc Desire 2.2 GSM * Uk 3 network * 8gb class2 sdcard * Bravo pvt1 ship S-off Alpharev * Clockwork 2.5.0.7 * HBOOT 0.93.0001 *
Was on Teppic's rom with init.d support http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773997
Any help would be very much appriciated.
I hope I haven't missed an obvious or relavent thread.
EDIT
Tried sdcard from Nokia6500 but Desire won't mount that either.
When I go into fastboot and plug in my usb, I do get "FASTBOOT USB" come up, so why would cmd "fastboot devices" not detect my phone? In recovery, cmd "adb devices" it does detect it.
I don't mean to be a pest but i doubt any of us can live without our desire's
BUMP
I have the same problem when i make ext etc. for me helps putting card into another phone with android and format it
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I have no other android device but...
I have managed to get fastboot cmd's to recognise my device.
Just need to figure how to flash my phone but I dont really want to take any backwards steps in terms of flashing a recovery.
Would like to flash my last set-up if it is possible.
Wish me luck lol
EDIT
Sorted....ish
Long short cut short is:
sdcard reader, reformatted to all fat32 with Paragon hard disc manager 8.
copied rom zip to sd.
full wipe with clockwork recovery.
Then inserted sd and installed zip from sdcard.
booted.
smiled again, even though its a practically stock rom.
ok i just waited and it finally booted up normally and went under sdcard and erased all that data this removes the partitions
I'm getting this error in red cwm 2.5.1.3
(File exists) E:Can't mounth CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't open CACHE: recovery.log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11

1: Cant boot into system-Stuck at Samsung logo
2: Can boot into Download mode both manually and via cwm
3: laptop wont recognize device
a. I have tried uninstalling all drivers, installing only SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe V.1.5.5.0, V. 1.5.29.0, and V. 1.5.18.0.
b. i have treid mini Kies for captivate, and also the full kies. neither driver works.
c. I have tried download mode with ODIN (doesn't recognize my device)
d. I have tried using Heimidall to install its drivers with the Zadig... Checked OPTIONS- show all devices. device isn't there.
main problem is I cant get my computer to recognize my device
I CAN boot into cmw fine, I just cant flash ANYTHING! Always error 7
I have 3 different USB cables. and I know 100% all of them work for my infuse. It just wont recognize my device in any way and with any drivers installed.
I cant boot my device and enable USB debugging. Stuck in red cwm
I do have an micro external sd, and i can load files via my card reader in my laptop.
How can i fix my partitions? As i believe the error i posted first is a partition problem.
i was on 4.2.2 Avatar Rom 7.0 Final, and tried to flash Aeon 1.4....
Please help me!!!!! Maybe a remote connection idk!!! its my only phone and don't want to bring it to the gun range for target practice with my
AK (last resort)
Got it fixed thanks to Zens aroma toolkit
Sent from my SGH-I997 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Could you please share how you got it fixed with this awesome toolkit? I'm kind of in a similar boat. I have Aeon 1.4 running great and I can download and flash roms OK but I can't get the darn thing to show up on ANY pc running Windows or Linux. Windows sees it as an "unknown usb device." I have tried everything from reinstalling kies and even Windows. It doesn't do anything in Linux anymore. Another strange thing is when I plug in the wall charger, the phone asks me to choose kies, media player, or mass storage. Weird. This all happened out of nowhere.
Thanks for reading this.
Downloaded the toolkit onto external micro SD plugged into my computer with a micro SD to SD card adapter. Then put the micro SD into my phone, booted into cwm. Followed by copying the toolkit to my internal phone memory with for explorer on touch cwm. Then started aroma toolkit, and used that to flash a kernal. It gives you several options for flashing in the toolkit.

Another thing, I work for a heating/plumbing company. And my work is dirty. I think a rock found its way into the charging port thing. I used a needle (while powered off) to clean out the areas around the little charge thing. After that it charged fine. Not sure if your having the same problem. But I had two. One was phone in bootloop other was not charging and mounting to PC. Good luck

Hello,
I believe I might have bricked my Nexus S (i9020a) due to the following:
- I (accidentally) wiped my ROM, cache, memory, sdcard, everything, in CWM - including the .zip containing the new ROM to be flashed
- Neither of my PCs (Win7 x64, Win8) can recognize my phone, both give a code 10 error and neither can properly communicate with the phone with ADB drivers (google, CWM, Samsung sources)
- I'm stuck in CWM and I cannot seem to mount /sdcard, mounting USB and sideload are not successful in being seen by PC
- Because I can't communicate with phone via USB, I can't even fastboot a different img (twrp, etc) to attempt to mount /sdcard
- Now I'm not sure if my USB port is damaged either (charges, doesn't seem to mount)
All of the above are separate issues I've found plenty of posts for, but I've them all at the same time. So, unless I can find a way to communicate to my phone and push over a ROM zip, my phone is done. Thoughts?
Thanks,
jcjchung
Hello,
I have Samsung Galaxy Core Plus (SM-G350) with broken screen (totally black) and password set up.
I want to recover my internal card data, but any of my ideas wont work.
I have already installed CWM and tried to blindly mount /sdcard by USB, but I dont see any new drive on PC.
I wanted to root it, but any of methods I found wont work (maybe cause Im running in CWM? Yes, USB debugging is disabled).
I tried also 'adb pull', but I need to mount /sdcard (am I right?) where I get 'permission denied' error - in adb shell I cant perform any command except 'cd'.
Im thinking about flashing /data by Odin, but how to create the 'script' for it?
Anybody has any idea how can I do it?
Same Boat...
I've got a broken screen on Centura Galaxy. I managed to blindly ODIN CWM on it, and now get ADB in recovery, but debugging is off so I'm stuck with there. I've tried recovery screenshot tools to try to load rooted ROM, but had no luck. I know JUST enough to be dangerous, and not much more. Just need to get DCIM folder.
@xNombre
If this is still valid, you could try flashing TWRP onto the phone, where it should mount the SD Card automatically and it should connect to the PC automatically too. Search for TWRP (either 2.8 or 3) here on XDA
So i soft bricked my device while trying to install the latest 4.0.1 image. I tried hard wiping the device and wipe cache partion from Stock Recovery but didn't help, still wouldn't boot. I tried installing the image in Stock Recovery from Apply Update From External SD Card, but i got a few errors first "E:Failed to map file Operation aborted", i took a look at the file and it had about 1.67gb extra in "Userdata" i tried deleting that file and reinstalling from external sd card but then i got "E:footer is wrong" "E:signature verification failed" Operation Aborted.
Now i'm trying to install update from ADB (Surprisingly if i have the tab connected and im in Apply Update from ADB the tab is recognized in ADB
Code:
adb devices
serial # sideload and i have updated the drivers) But if i try to flash the recovery file 4.0.1 (provided from the developers site [cant post links]) "i just get waiting for device"
Anyone know how to get around this issue in ADB or properly install from external sd card without getting errors?
(Alternative read to my problem posted in the Nvidia Forums 98% sure i soft bricked my device [cant post links]
Did you ever find a fix? I'm having a similar problem.
Try to use fastboot restore everything.
I can't get it to connect to fastboot. When it loads the boot loader and I try to select fastboot protocol it fails.
Wow this thing sucks! I'm really appreciating my Samsung with Odin right now! So I finally got it to connect to fastboot (don't ask me how, I don't know) unlocked the bootloader and flashed twrp. Now it won't flash supersu in adb sideload so I put it on an SD card (which now magically mounts and works now) and flashed the zip in recovery but it says at the very end of the process while trying to update the partitions that it can't mount the data and system partitions so I'm not sure if I'm actually getting root or not and if so if it's permanent I have no way to tell. I think this is because they have been accidentally wiped. Do you think it is safe to try to flash a rom in recovery from external sd card? And if so which one? I have no idea which version bootloader, kernel, or os is or was on this device...
Update: I think I may start a new thread in the Q&A/Help section so that I can try to get a vast concensus. Thanks!

Yes flash a ROM in recovery.
Try Resurrection Remix. It'll resurrect your device
Just tried flashing bliss 6.2 and it won't get past the nvidia screen. It says it flashes successfully but I still get a bunch of "can't mount such and such partition" errors during the flash sequence. Not sure what to do, I can post pics if you guys want.
If you got/can get TWRP on there now, the advanced wipe menu will allow you to check /data for errors. As for /system, wipe it. If you get errors that e2fsck can't fix in your TWRP log, you'll have to put on your data recovery hat on. If it's that important to you, my advice is to adb pull the right file under /dev/block. You won't get a block device, you'll get an exact image of your data partition. Once it's fully pulled (it'll be 10 GB or more on a 16GB device), make a copy of it first thing, and use data recovery tools (testdisk, or if you really know what you're doing, debugfs). If you don't have anything valuable on /data (remember that any backups you took from recovery go in /data/media by default), just format that and be done with it.
Pray that there are no errors after you format everything, because that usually means your NAND is toast.
If your errors are hardware ones, you're royally screwed. Same thing happened to my Nexus 7 2013 model a year ago. Only way to use it is to flash a modified kernel that will use an attached USB drive exclusively as storage. If the NAND is toast inside the boot partiti,try replacing recovery, otherwise, you have to tether boot it (fastboot boot) every time you want to run it, unless you have the guts to try repartitioning the NAND (unlike on PCs, messing up there is an instabrick).
Since the Shield Tablet can use SD cards, you're better off. No USB drive needed.
