Okay so today I was tinkering with my phone when I accidentally deleted a system file that was crucial. So I went to bootloader and wiped phone (I know that was the wrong thing to do, now). So I have no ROM on my phone. I was able to ADB the ROM I need to my phone on internal storage (not /sdcard) but the problem is whenever I try to flash it, I get the following error over and over in the code area in TWRP "E: failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument). I've gone to the mount options screen and when I try to select sdcard nothing happens, I can't select it. If it's any help, the ROM I'm trying to flash has the official page here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804223 and the ROM I was on before this whole thing is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1868236 . Any help is greatly appreciated, I really need this phone fixed!
EDIT: Alright, so I flashed stock recovery, relocked, and then used my friend's PC (thanks man!) and now my phone is in perfect working condition. Just re-rooted and re-unlocked the bootloader in like 10 minutes, which is funny because it took me like an hour and a half the first time. Anyways, thank you to all the users on this forum for helping me. Appreciate it!
NEVER Factory Reset or Clear Storage from bootloader it'll screw up your storage inside of twrp. I tried formatting storage afterwards in twrp and in windows and it still didn't help twrp see it. I ended up running the ruu again.
easiest thing to do is run the ruu again, reunlock bootloader, flash twrp and flash rom. then never factory reset or clear storage in bootloader again.
if you find another method let me.

Okay, sorry what what's the ruu and how do I run it again?
EDIT: So is the ruu the stock ROM? I've done some googling and it appears that it's something to do with exe file. I'm on a Mac, but I can get access to a PC if it's necessary.

And youll have to learn some simple adb commands tto relock your bootloader..or it won't work someone correct me if wrong
Hi guys yep you'll need to do some adb work to relock for ruu. However... if you still have recovery? You could try flashing a clean ROM. Then flash the cm10 over that. Of course youll need to delete cache,s before flashing cm10. I'd give that a shot first.
(Edit) I just noticed you having the mount issue also... ignore that. Just check you PC it should still show up. And it may ask you to format the drive? Your OK to do that fat32.

subarudroid, the sdcard partition is fubar that's why he needs to ruu. reread the posts.

I can't flash any ROM because I keep getting that error mentioned in the original post.
let us know when you relock your bootloader and ruu back to stock
boot into bootloader run "fastboot oem lock" then run the ruu
You still have recovery. Right? You should still be OK. Twrp is not letting you mount SD. Right?

He needs to relock bl and ruu ..download aan ruu. That will be ok. If you need help with adb check out gunnymans stickied thread
Easiest way to fix is to connect phone to pc, then select mount, mount usb in twrp and windows will prompt you to format.
Then once that is done you can copy your rom of choice across unmount and flash.

A little reading will the trick for u he wiped from bootloader menu and now cannot mount through twrp
Twrp is known for having mount issue. I'm tell in ya if you USB to PC it will still find the SD as long as you have the HTC drivers installed. Unless your twrp is gone? Then you need to ruu.

Yes, I still have recovery and twrp is not letting me mount sd card. I'm trying to get the ruu to work, however, I have a Mac and getting it to work in a third party program like Wine or Parallels isn't easy, but I'm making progress. If there's another way to run the ruu on Mac, let me know.

And second example was cwm. And cwm does work but not the international version we have an unofficial unreliable build
I was using just a little sarcasm about cwm. that second thread does in fact discuss the problem with twrp as well. I just hate to see rolltribe go though all the trouble of ruu when it may be possible not to do so.

That's what I was aiming for as well - why ruu when there's an easier way that should work providing the right drivers etc are installed.
I wiped my phone via bootloader 3 times in one evening by being to quick on the volume to power trigger and brought it back using what I said above.

Alright this might sound dumb but i am a new noob at this. Anyway, i flashed AOKP rom build 4 through CWM recovery and was rockin that for a lil. Then decided to run ViperXL which i flashed through TWR because it couldn't flash through CWM? It requried me to install TWR and Aroma. Now when i tried to go reflash AOKP, something went wrong. After i factory reseted, wiped caches and reflashed the ROM, my phone rebooted fine. BUT, the "upgrading" message kept coming on a few more times after that then it would reboot everytime. My phone kep crashing after this. I couldnt do anything with the phone after this. So i rebooted to bootloader and tried to go on recovery through there to try and re-flash AOKP but i couldnt reboot to recovery, it would just stay on the "HTC quietly brilliant" screen and do nothing. So i rebooted again to bootloader and factory reseted and it rebooted to homescreen and ViperXL was still flashed. Im pretty confused on what happened and i need help. My phone is working fine with ViperXL but i lost everything on my SD card, all my backups and roms. Can someone tell me what is going on? The story sounds confusing but if you can understand please help.
You'll need to flash a new recovery image through adb. I would recommend using twrp. I was a big fan of cwm until I got my hox. Twrp is much more stable.

thank you, just did that and now twrp is running well. but yea cwm was good for me, until i started using twrp.
CWM was not properly ported to the OneXL. People kept having their sd cards wiped for no reason. Stick with twrp.. it's awesome. And I'm not sure what you did the factory reset in. If you facto reset in twrp you'll be fine as it doesn't touch the sd card. If you facto reset in bootloader it completely wipes your phone and sd card. Don't do that lol.

Hello everyone, i have a huge problem. First off my htc is rooted and the recovery im using is CWM and i have been having problem restoing my backup roms that include CM10 and the stock ROM. my first problem arose while trying to restore my stock Rom. i booted into recovery then i performed a wipe, followed by restoring the rom. When the phone booted up, it would sit at the splash screen for 3 minutes then get stuck at a dark screen for about 10 minutes, then it would do it over and over stuck in a boot loop. I then decided to go back to CM10. That rom restored perfectly and everything was fine. However i really wanted a sense rom again, so i flashed TeamVenom's ViperOneS Rom 1.2.0, again a wipe was done prior to the flash. btw i had to manually flash the boot.img using fastboot. ViperOneS worked fine, but i realised that CM10 was just better overall. So i restored CM10, but this time it would get stuck at the CM10 boot animation. Then i went back to viperOneS. SO then i tried to see if i could restore cm10 again. When i went into recovery, it said cant mount /sd card. so i went to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630459
and followed the instructions. i then decided to try to flash cm9 and now im ****ed cause i have no backups due to the loss of backups and cm9 is stuck on a whiute screen after the boot animation. someone plzz help!!!!!
Update: i still have no access to sd card. tried flashing stock recovery, didnt work. and somehow, i have no OS, according to TWR. Some one help with these issues.

Ya each time it didn't work the boot.img needed flashing even for a backup so ya you need to fastboot the boot.img for it to work.
any boot.img? or should i extract the boot.img from the rom .zip file

You don't have to relock bootloader to run RUU on s-off device.
Just reboot to fastboot, make sure your pc can see your phone and execute ruu*.exe

Yes, that is the important bit, clear storage in bootloader when you have the STOCK recovery.
The stock recovery fixes the issues. (from what I have read on our forums)

You have to have the ICS boot loader and Boot Menu Manager in order to install and run CM11 or any other ROM that is Jelly Bean and up. Just update your firmware, root, install BMM the start flashing. :thumbup:

catch me up with what you did to get where your are at, I need to know your cause before I can find a solution.
next, are you rooted and have a custom recovery installed? You can boot but get nothing right? Did this happen when you flashed a new ROM or after you got rid of things in your system?

I might of deleted some att apps but when I did a full restore and got them back I even fully uninstalled bootstrap with titanium back up. An say after I fully restored I turned my phone off and back on boom no imei no service etc..
sometimes flashing a rom can wipe out your imei
My phone is rooted an im on firmware 2.3.6
I have no clockwork mod I cant get it too work or I know I cant get clockwork mod wit bootstrap.. But even when i went into boot recovery i was just in a bootloop at my motorola boot screen. an was not able to get into recovery no matter what button i pressed.

install ROM manager, its an app, it has an option that lets you boot into recovery straight from system without having to use the buttons

I hate to say it but it looks like you might have to flash a jelly bean STOCK(not custom) firmware, then start over from scratch, I think you are going to have to do it anyway because there are things in the stock jellybean that you're gonna need in place before you flash any kind of new ROM, it would also be easier that way than trying to fix your problem befire you start.

I was just sharing my experience. Eventhough I never tried any other recoveries, my recovery is doing very fine.

After I had a jelly bean update, only the touch version of TWRP seems to work. Every recovery I tried other than that is not working. The touch version is tweaked by some contributors in xda. Latest recoveries of twrp itself not works with my handset

did you try piwering off or pulling the battery out it back in and then use the button combination to boot to recovery instead if using bootstrap to boot to recovery?

yes as long as it is a stock version of jelly bean for your device, doesnt matter the version as long as its for your exact model number
you won't be able to do it through recovery though, you'll have to have a oc to flash stock firmware to your device, you'll need to download your stock firmware (not custom roms), the usb drivers for your device, and whatever program is required to flash your stock firmware. no other way, then you'll have to root again and install a recovery then you can find and flash whatever custom roms are available for your device

you might could just reflash recovery with a pc with whatever method your device uses on pc then flash a custom rom, its safest to just flash the stock and start over

when you say you keep losing your imei do you mean you can put it back but it won't stay?

there is a process that you can do through the terminal emulator app that you can make a backup of your imei and a method to restore it but you'll have to find how it is done for your device, do a google search for "HOW TO MAKE AN IMEI BACKUP FOR (your device model)" that should give you something.

Hello..!!
Do you've Atrix 2 mb865 ..?? if yes you can follow this step..
you need to download ICS/JB leak firmware for ur device AT&T/International version, then you need rsd lite to flash ur stock fw back to ur device via fasboot mode..
Root ur device again and then you need to install Boot Menu Manager from playstore . No Bootstrap anymore if you want to have KK rom on ur Atrix2..
Bootstrap only can be use if you're still on GB only..
Hope you got it my friend ...

Really...??
No.. you no need to backup your IMEI on this device.. But you must need to backup your CID .
You can do it via bmm recovery.. there was a option menu to do it when you're on recovery setting interface ...
Sorry if I'm wrong. ..

I told him I wasn't familiar with his device, I told him to flash a newer version of stock because it has parts he'll need if he flashes a newer custom ROM but he keeps wanting yo fix what he's running even though he's gonna have to flash over it anyway to get where he wants to be so I don't see wgat the problem is, flashing stock will get rid of his issue then flash up to whatever Rom he wants, I don't see why he doesn't just go ahead and do it now instead of doing what he's doing.
