boot ur phone to bootloader and run ruu

Try going into Recovery, and wipe cache and wipe Dalvik, then reboot.
Not sure if this will work on the One X. But I've had occasional issues with the internal SD mounting on my HTC Flyer tablet, and wiping cache and Dalvik fix it every time.
Its worth a try, anyway.

If your problem is that you cannot mount the SDCard (as opposed to being able to mount it but it is empty) I ran into something similar during my 2nd ROM flashing experience. I got into this state by doing a factory wipe from the bootloader screen (as opposed to doing it from recovery). This wiped my entire SDCard partition, even the filesystem on it. So when I booted into Android, it failed to mount the SDCard altogether, saying that it was corrupted.
I had to re-format the SDCard from Windows in order to recover, by doing the following:
1. Boot into recovery (for me was TWRP 2.1.8.1)
2. Select "Mount"
3. Checkmark "Mount SDCard"
4. Connect device to PC via USB cable
5. Select "Mount USB Storage" in TWRP
6. On the PC, find the SDCard's drive in My Computer, right-click on it, and select "Format"
7. Proceed with formatting the SDCard ("Quick Format" is fine)
8. Safely remove the USB storage from Windows
9. Reboot the device
Upon rebooting, the SDCard mounted fine, although all data was erased.
Lesson learned: do factory reset from recovery, not the bootloader screen

I'm having the same issue, but I can't check the SD card box in TWRP?
Any idea what I can do to fix this?

I had the same issue. however if you USB to PC and format sd drive, twrp will sometimes find. Also notice that when I did that my rom zip, kernal files to flash were in the twrp file in recovery.
Make sure you have everything backed up.
I guess I should add that twrp wouldn't mount however USB to PC still found it.

Ditto, exact same problem. Any solutions?

I've been having the same problems. My phone has been in a soft brick for 1 week and a half now and nothing seems to work.
Suggestions I've been given (None worked for me):
-Hold power button for 10 seconds for a force reboot
-Flash stock recovery, go in Hboot, Clear Storage, Flash TWRP, wipe cache.
-Connect an SD card reader to your phone with the rom in it.
-Partition SD from TWRP
-Relock phone and flash stock RUU (My phone is on 1.94 firmware and there is no equivalent RUU. I tried all of them and they all say I have the wrong ROM)
The only suggestion I have been given that would work is to buy a new phone... But I am not that desperate yet.
Maybe one will work for you

Now that I think of it, it is probably not necessary to checkmark "Mount SDCard". The reason is that doing so only mounts (or unmounts) it for access within TWRP and should not affect the USB access. So if you cannot checkmark it, try just ignoring that step.

Umm huge thanks, button not enough. Thought I'd have to start from scratch again! Will keep in mind in case of future issues.

So, wait, I'm having the same issue. How did you get your phone to a bootable condition without erasing the SD card?

I didn't. I had to wipe the SDCard by formatting it. More correctly, the factory reset that I performed from hboot wiped the SDCard, so it was already wiped... I just had to format it. Lesson learned: only perform factory reset from recovery (TWRP or CWM), as it does not touch the SDCard.

My phone is now booting, but it still can't mount or recognize the SD card. Do I have to reflash again or is there some setting I can use to get it to mount?

I did this and this is what Xsmagical and I did to fix it.
Take the stock android recovery from a ruu or stock Rom. (I used the one from 1.85 ruu but it doesn't matter.)
Fastboot flash the stock recovery to your phone and then reboot into bootloader where you originally wiped.
Factory reset from hboot and then Fastboot flash twrp again, mount sd should be available now. Mount sd, copy whatever Rom onto sd card and flash from there.
Freaked me out too man

How does one extract the stock recovery from a ruu or stock ROM? (or, would it be possible for you to send me the file?)
and does flashing the stock recovery require me to relock the bootloader?
thx u dolan

Gracias

[Q] How to push in adb when device not found?

Solved already, used different recovery that has an option to mount sdcard to pc so that I can move the rom for flashing.
Hi,
I have a china phone(oppo finder) that I have accidentally unmount the sdcard using miui recovery. The phone only comes with an internal storage. When I reboot the phone, it will only boot in recovery due to unmounted sd card. I cant use adb due to device not found. I tried searching for the driver but cant found anything that will make adb usable. I am able to go to fastboot and can still flash custom recovery.
Is there a way to push a rom to the sdcard or to remount the sdcard? Anyway I can utilize the fastboot?
Appreciate any help I can get! Thanks for your time in advance!

[Q] Flashed wrong kernel.. Derp

So, I just got this phone and decided to root flash yadda yadda. I didn't realize how many different version of this phone there were and flashed a kernel for the international version. Shortly after TWRP said I had no os installed and when I use adb to push a rom to both /system and /sdcard it won't show up.
Any ideas?
Edit: I've been able to push it to /data and when I try to flash it It says "updating partition" then immediately fails..

Just mount usb storage in TWRP, copy a ROM from your pc to your phone sd card, and install normally from TWRP install menu.

I forgot to mention this: windows doesn't recognize the file system and wants to format it when I mount it..

In that case you've probably corrupted your sd card, and you will need to format it using Windows before you can do anything. My guess is that you did a factory reset from bootloader didn't you.

Yes I did but it said it was formatted before I did that.
I just got it to work. I pushed the rom to /data then copied it from /data to /sdcard and it installed just fine. I was a little worried!! I need to pay more attention next time x.x

[Q] Help! My internal storage is dead!! No access!

Hi community,
I have my Nexus 5 since 2 Days. Now it cant find the internal storage.
U dont talk about usb, mount at mass storage etc. NO
My Phone didnt recognize the internal storage.
So i can boot it, but can not access.
What i have done:
- its odex stock rom
- open bootloader
- root SuperSU
- Recovery TWRP latest
Until then everything was fine.
Then I tried to mount my USB storage with TWRP.
I know now its not possible..
But I would not give up so I installed CWM latest to try it.
->
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
fastboot erase cache
After that i navigated to "mount option" and try to mount and unmount all of this buts not working.
So i flashed back to twrp and reboot my phone.
Now the phone has booted, but the internal storage was not recognized.
In addition, there is no GSM / LTE connection.
Because I can not access the storage, I can not f the recovery
So my question:
How does the phone get back access to the memory?
Thank

Try format data and data/media (sdcard) from recovery. If that doesn't work, you may have to flash the factory images from fastboot. In either case, your data will be wiped.

Since you´ve messed up your internal storage, I suggest you to flash a factory image and to hope for the best

O wont fail again.

Flashing a factory image is very simple, have a look at eg. this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701

"CM Lockscreen has stopped" turns OPO into bootloop, how to backup /sdcard to pc?

"CM Lockscreen has stopped" turns OPO into bootloop, how to backup /sdcard to pc?
I got the "CM lockscreen has stopped" message, and now my phone keeps rebooting. I can put the phone into stock recovery mode and maybe fastboot mode(yet to try). All i wanted now is to backup all my files in internal storage before "sideload" the older firmeware(33R) to fix the phone.
I just learned how to use adb and fastboot.
in stock recovery mode------> apply update-----> adb, only "adb sideload mode" is allowed, i can't use adb pull command in here.
Question is: How to backup all the files in internal storage(/sdcard) to my pc.
should i just sideload the older firmware and fix the rebooting issue first?
but i am worrying this method won't works or the internal storage will get formatted.
Thank you

Just flash a custom ROM using TWRP. Your files won't be erased from internal sd card.
No need to use fastboot. Don't forget to wipe in twrp.

But i didn't install TWRP on my phone. To install TWRP now, i think i have to unlock the bootloader first, but this will wipe all the data(including internal sd scard). Am i right?
