so I turned s-off using the revolutionary tool and everything worked fine, installed clockwork mod and booted back into my phone. Installed rom manager and made a backup which updated clockworkmod to 5.0.2.0. after that everything worked fine I installed CM7 but when i was installing some apps the phone crashed and got stuck in a reboot loop.
I booted back to recovery but when I enter it is giving the following errors:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
trying to format or flash an image gives me error formatting cache/data
tried to re-flash CWM through adb just hangs up writing recovery
tried RUU with the exe from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033922 also hangs
tried installing CWM with AndroidFlasher doesn't work (also hangs)
i have read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039504 which seems the same issue as mine. someone mentioned using the following shell command:
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p27
reboot recovery
the thread is on G2 and DZ, would that work with the incredible s?
is there anything else i can try?
Alright guys, I've got a question. I have my brothers nexus s that has had CM9 A11 on it and we decided to move to the latest CM9. Long story short, I am no longer able to boot the phone up, but can only access CWM Recovery and Bootloader/Fastboot mode. Trying to boot results in a bootloop. I need help getting this thing back to stock however I can. I've tried to flash recovery.img via fastboot but cannot get my computer to recognize the phone in order to do what I need. He would like his phone back ASAP and I hate to tell him its bricked for a few days. Thanks!
Download full OTA ROM from the link in my signature. Boot into CWM, mount USB storage, and transfer the file to SD card. Flash it. Done.
Just make sure you download the correct ROM for your phone model.

Video on that page will show you how to install drivers on a windows-based machine to recognise the phone for fastboot, and provide files to do so.
Also, can't you go into CWM --> mounts and storage --> mount usb storage (while plugged into the computer) then copy over any files you need, then flash through recovery.
I forgot to mention that I am getting this when trying to format cache:
E:Can't find misc
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't find misc
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/latest_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/latest_log
E:Can't find misc
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
I tried to install the OTA update like you said but got the following:
assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img".
"boot")
E:Error in /sdcard/(OTA file name here)
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
Maybe the internal SD card is bad? Any thoughts?
When you get the drivers installed, download the latest 5.0.2.0 CWM from here.
Alright, so I got fastboot to recognize the phone, but am having another problem. It gave me an error when I gave the command to flash the new CWM. I tried to install pdanet for the drivers, and the phone says at the bottom "FASTBOOT STATUS - FAILInvalid Command". I really think something has been corrupted, any ideas on how to fix it/restore it? Thanks for all the help guys.
Fastboot status is not a command.
Fastboot devices is the command you use to test if it sees the device . The serial number will show.
uh oh sounds like someone flashed brickROM V1

Hi there...
sorry i'm completely a noob in this aspect as this is my first time having an android device..
my android device has MT6589 Android version 4.4.2 by default and 3.4.5 kernel version... my stock ROM, well, i don't know but it's customized by one of the university in my country, my recovery is CWM v5.5.0.4
so i searched any guides that might work and then bump into a guide in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2707438
custom ROM which i tried to port is from
http://www.mediatekguides.com/2015/12/mt6589-miui-v7-rom-multilanguage-edition-port.html
it was said that it is for all MT6589 devices even though it's basen on Kitkat 4.4.4 and accidentally my dad have a hh that installed MIUI v7 with 3.4.5 kernel version(or so i remember), so i thought it will work cause its still within Kitkat
cause it's my first time.. by some chance i made a mistake in first attempt to port.. that is copied all text from recovery.fstab to A11Q file (From registering device to kitchen) and doing all the steps... and of course it didn't succeed but it became bootloop...
seeing that.. i tried using SP Flashtool to restore my stock ROM but it was the same.. stuck in the logo(bootloop)..
and then i tried opening CWM Recovery and it shows
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
and then.. i tried to seach for solution, it said to format /cache.. but when doing that, it shows:
E:format_volume:make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p6
Error formatting /cache
when trying others formatting, it was the same, just differ in mmcblk0p_
i still didn't try porting with SP Flash Tool as i was trying to restore my Stock ROM with it and still failed..
Anybody can Help me please?
