2.keep the Map.zip in the same sd directory

[Q] Copy ROM to USB without OS

Hi I need some help to get my phone working again. This is a bit more difficult because the Nexus S doesn't have a removable SD card slot. The OS on my phone is gone, but I still have clockwork recover working. The problem is that I do not have any zip files on the internal SD card to flash a new ROM. Does anyone know how to get a ROM zip file copied over to the Nexus S for flashing? Phone isn't working now :crying:

If you have cwm 5.8.0.2 or 6.0.1 u can go to mount and storage, scroll down and click on mount usb storage. Plug it in to a pc and your sd card will pop up. then drag and drop a rom!
if not just go into fastboot plug it to your pc and flash via fastboot (google it how to do it, bcz i dont, sorry)
hit that thanks button if it helped

Thank you for correction and new information about cwm

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.

Oh okay thanks, but i only have a option for external, btw can i charge my phone in recovery mode

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

Use mobile odin(rename to recovery.img) or heimdall to flash cwm 6.0.1.0 from aorth. Then use cwm to get root.

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!

hi all,
i have no problem in following the guide.... its very simple.
BUT still i get the message (( E:failed to mount sdcard (no such file or directory) ))
i did copy the 2 files "root" & "CWM"..... this is how i did copy them, correct me if am wrong please
1- plug my PG-6200 with Usb to PC
2- the auto window open showing 2 icons ..... "Card" and "Tablet"
3- drag the 2 files into "card"
4- unplug the tablet
5- switch off tablet
6- volume up + power buttons till in recovery mode
7- select apply from external
8- then i get the message in red (( E:failed to mount sdcard (no such file or directory) ))

What recovery do u have?
Pull the battery, then power up to boot loader or recovery so u can use volume buttons to navigate and power button to select ur way to "mounts and storage" and turn on USB mode.
If u cannot see anything at all then let us know what recovery u have so we can tell u how many volume button clicks u need to do and when to hit the volume button.
I use clock mod, so I can only help u if u have that... but someone else will come along to assist with the other recovery.
Good luck
Vs Nexus S4G using tapatalk2

hey thank you for answering i almost sure that i have ClockworkMod Recovery...
so what i need to do ?

Do you per chance remember the version? Was it touch recovery or not? This changes how many clicks you have to do. I've helped a few people with that, but it's important you try to remember or find out which one you have so we can help you. Otherwise I can give you both directions, but there's always the slight possiblity you'll end up doing something wrong.

i think it was 5.1 if im not worng.. no touch thats 4 sure

And if you unplug it then replug it, does the drive disappear then re-appear? Just to make sure it's the right removable disk and not another one.
Edit: You need to unplug and replug once you have navigated to the right section in CWM.

yes tried that, didnt work.. and he did that only in the first time
can you send me print screen ?
or any other way ?

I cannot take screenshots in recovery, you know.
For the computer part, I'm at work and I have very little time. I help people in between actions here and there.

Once you can boot into CWM and connect the phone to computer, there is a possible chance to use ADB to copy files to and from the phone. Copy the entire 'sdcard' contents by typing:
adb pull /data/media C:\backup\
*you'll have to create a directory called backup first.

any alternative way please ??

Don't boot in CWM for adb though, just fastboot (VOL+ & PWR).
There's not much we can do for you azulay4u if you can't manage to navigate and mount the USB nor do you want to ADB pull your data. :/
