I am relatively new to the world of rooting and ROMs, but I have successfully installed CM10 on a previous Samsung phone, so I am decently literate.
I am currently attempting to install CM10.1 on my Verizon Galaxy S III (following the instructions on the Install CM for d2vzw page on the CM wiki), but I have reached an impasse at step 7. I was not aware that I had to put the VRALE6.bootloader.zip file on the SD card before starting this process, so I am now attempting to get that file onto my SD card either by sideloading through CWM or by pushing it to the SD card through adb. The issue is that CWM gives me an error (can't mount SD card) and adb doesn't recognize my device (I have tried installing and reinstalling various drivers for the past few hours). I enabled USB Debugging mode before starting the process, but I am only able to get into Download and CWM modes right now (if I don't do the Download Mode or Recovery Mode key combination, I am stuck on the Galaxy S III screen). Am I bricked at this point, or is there a way to get VRALE6.bootloader.zip onto my phone and continue with the ROM process?
It is important to note that I formatted the SD card before starting this process because I wanted enough space to put the Cyanogenmod file on it. However, I think I may have formatted it generically rather than into FAT-32. Could this be the issue?
I am going to pick up a microSD card reader today in order to flash the SD card to FAT-32 and put the CyanogenMod file on it.
I am getting 5 errors upon startup of CWM (E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command, can't mount /cache/recovery/log, etc.). When I try to mount the SD card or external SD card, I get E: Can't mount /sdcard/
Same issue with sd card not mounting.
I'm having somewhat of the same issue. I've tried both Clockwork recovery and TWRP and have the same issue.
Should have mentioned that i still have access to the stock rom and can use my phone just fine.
I some how got Clockwork mod recovery to work using the Rom Manager pro App.
I wish i had been paying better attention to what i was doing but i know i updated CWMrecovery from in rom manager and chose to install my chosen rom with that.
My suggestion is to start over completely. There is a much easier way to do this.
My suggestion is to flash one of the rooted stock ROMs through Odin. There's a thread in android development that has rooted stock. Then when that's done boot up your phone. If it bootloops wipe data. Then use Ez-Unlock 1.2 app to unlock your bootloader. Make sure it's 1.2. Now use GooManager to flash TWRP. You are done! This is probably the easiest way to do this.

I am not familiar with TWRP, so is the process the same for flashing CM (putting CM zip file on sd card and going to install from SD card in TWRP)? Are there any additional steps beyond this?
I am following the directions in the thread linked above to root and install TWRP. So far, I have the rooted stock ROM running fine, but I can't get TWRP to work. I downloaded Goomanager and attempted to get TWRP using the Install Openrecovery Script option. However, it said that it couldn't find a recovery for my device. I also tried to use the adb method, but nothing happened after I put in the commands. I even tried to flash the latest TWRP .tar file from their website using Odin, but it keeps failing. Is there any way to get TWRP on my phone?
EDIT:Whoops, I skipped over the EZ-Unlock step. Now everything works. Thanks for the help, Sandman!

Alright, maybe I'm not quite fixed up yet. I have TWRP installed and I can go between TWRP, download mode, and the normal stock rooted ROM fine. However, I cannot get to the SD Card in TWRP in order to install CM. TWRP gives me the following errors upon booting into recovery:
E: Unable to find parition size for '/boot'
E: Unable to find parition size for '/data'
E: Unable to find parition size for '/recovery'
Updating partition details:
E: Unable to mount '/system'
E: Unable to mount '/cache'
E: Unable to mount '/cache'
E: TWFunc: :Copy_Log - - Can't open destination log
E: Unable to mount '/cache'
Upon trying to go to Install, I am unable to select the external SD card, and an additional error appears when I attempt to touch Micro SD Card (E: Unable to mount '/external_sd').
I guess I could try to sideload the CM zip file through adb, but I would rather fix the SD card for future use. I have been researching and working on the SD card for the better part of today, to no avail. I am pretty sure the issue is in the formatting of the SD card (it appears to be RAW rather than the required FAT32 for CM), but I cannot format the SD card into FAT-32 no matter what I try (both Windows and 3rd party formatting tools). They all say that the SD card is either write-protected (I have already checked the read/write switch on the side of the SD card adapter) and/or the format cannot be completed. I have tried both my old SD card that I have kept for a few phones (an 8GB Samsung microSD card) and a brand new Sandisk 8GB microSD card, both of which will not work.
I am able to transfer files to the SD card with no issue (with both ADB and through dragging/dropping in Windows), but I cannot install from SD in recovery.
Does anyone have a solution to allow me to install CM on my phone?

Do you have another computer to try formatting the sdcard with? And you said that you receive the same errors when trying to reformat the new 8 GB sdcard as with your other sdcard which is formatted to RAW?

I do have access to another computer, but I ran out of time and patience yesterday. I will try it when I get home later today. And yes, both cards are RAW (even the new one) and I can't get either one to format or work in TWRP.
So it appears the the issue with formatting was due to my computer's drivers (even though I installed the latest Samsung USB drivers) and not the SD card. I was able to format the SD card to FAT32 on another computer and put CM and GAPPS onto it. When booted normally into TouchWiz, the phone sees the SD card fine. However, I still get the same "Can't mount external SD card" error as well as the others previously listed when I attempt to install a zip from recovery. I even tried to sideload the ROM from ADB, but it still didn't work.

Which version of CWM and also TWRP are you using?
And the problems keep rolling in. I was able to mount my SD card and get rid of the TWRP errors by installing a modded TWRP 2.6.0.0 from this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44277901). However, when I go to install CM (cm-10.1.3-d2vzw.zip), I get the following error:

E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/external_sd/cm-10.1.3-d2vzw.zip'
Error flashing zip '/external_sd/cm-10.1.3-d2vzw.zip'

I did a factory reset before attempting to install this, but I did not format data or do anything else.

Well, that is for the Sprint S3 my friend. We can't interchange recoveries between the different S3 models to flash roms. You may want to ask Kennyglass123 or any of those other guys if they can make a change for the VZW S3 for you to test it out.

Sounds good. I think the problem has been isolated to being something with needing a modded TWRP. I tried using an older, non-modded TWRP (2.5.0.0), which didn't work.

Would you mind trying this soft brick fix? If I'm not mistaken, I believe you're experiencing this same issue--excluding the Sprint TWRP issue you just mentioned. You will need to flash your VZW custom recovery either through GooManager, Rom Manager, or Odin btw.

I can still get between the stock rooted ROM, download mode, and recovery mode fine, so does that mean I am still soft-bricked and should try this?

Hi all,
I have recently flashed RevolutionROM with Galaxian kernel onto my SGS I9000.
I then flashed Darky's ROM 10.2.2 to my wife's phone (same model) and love it so want to flash it to mine too. So I need to flash Darky's Resurrection 10.2 first but can't get any PC (I've tried 3 of them - 2 with Ubuntu Linux and 1 with Windows 7) to recognise the phone over USB.
I plug in the USB and it vibrates and charges, but I get nothing on the phone display (i.e. USB mass storage screen) and the PC doesn't detect it at all.
I also tried it in Download mode but it was again not detected by the PC (Heimdall).
I'm figuring there is something wrong with the physical USB connection in the phone, as the same cable and PC worked on my wife's phone just yesterday.
So, a couple of questions:
1. Any suggestion for how to fix the USB issue?
2. Assuming I can't figure out the USB issue, is there any way to flash a ROM without USB connectivity?
thanks
Aaron

Hi,
Thanks, I appreciate your response but ask that you read my original post again - as i stated I tried it on 3 different PCs and that my wife's phone is detected fine.
It seems to be moot now unfortunately as I think I may have bricked my phone last night. I tried restoring a previous nandroid backup via CWM recovery and ended up in a boot loop. I was able to get back to recovery but now when I try to do anything I just get a heap of error messages saying it's unable to mount/find various filesystem locations.
I can get into download mode but without access by USB it is no help to me.
cheers
Aaron
Your device is not bricked. As long as you can get into recovery mode, you are fine. Have you tried using a new SD card, placing a rom on it then flashing it via CWM Recovery?

Thanks Theonew. Can you help me with how to go about that?
When I go into CWM recovery and try to restore a backup it simply shows several messages on the screen basically saying it can't mount or find any of the locations it's looking for (sorry I'm at work and don't have it with me to get the exact error messages) then returns to the recovery menu.
With that, I made the (possibly incorrect) assumption that the recovery is not going to be able to access any ROM that I might be able to put on the external SD card (and certainly not on the internal SD card).
If there's a way to do it though, I'm keen to give it a try. I have a 2GB external card that I can place a ROM on, but how would I get CWM recovery to flash it from there?
thanks
Aaron
Now that I'm back from work, here's the error messages I am consistently getting in CWM recovery.
Pretty much anything I try to do results in a variation of these errors appearing:
This one was after trying to apply update.zip from sd card.
Code:
E:unknown volume for path [/sdcard/update.zip]
E:Can't mount /sdcard/update.zip
Installation aborted.
E:unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/log]
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/last_log]
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/command]
Try looking for the zip of the rom instead of the update.zip (install zip from SDcard -> Choose zip from SDcard)
Best bet is just put a new ROM in the root (i.e not in any folder) and look for it and flash make sure to clear out all the old stuff.
Hi, thanks again for the response. There are no actions I can take in CWM that don't result in the errors and failure (except reboot and test keys!)
I can't access anything that is stored as it's not mounting any partitions.
I can't add anything to the root because my USB isn't working.
thanks

I am looking for some help with my sdcard on my P3113
I can no longer mount my sdcard in recovery. "Error mounting /sdcard!" any time I try. Here is what I have done so far to try and fix it:
Reflashed CWM 6. No difference
Flashed CWM 5. No difference.
Used Odin to return the device to stock.
Flashed CWM 5. Still same issue
Flash CWM 6. Still same issue.
Any reason I can't mount my SDCARD anymore in recovery or any suggestions on what I can do next to fix it?

Have you tried formatting the card?
Yes, I have tried multiple different cards also and they mount just fine once the ROM is booted.
Which SD Card (internal or external)? Also, does the SD Card mount properly when booted into Android? I had the external sd fail to mount in recovery, when to use it in Android, and it wasn't recognized there either. Had to do a reformat before my tablet could recognize it again.

The problem is with the External SD card not be accessable while in recovery. Once I am booted into the OS I am able to access it and use whatevers on it no problem. I have formated the first card and that didn't help, so I switch to a different card and that didn't work either. I have tried flashing Recovery again as well as returning to full stock and rerooting. Recovery just won't see the card. It's not that big of a deal, i just want to make sure I am not going to start having other problems too...
same device, same problem, using cyanogenmod 13.
Have a Telstra One XL 1.89 - after hours of reading/researching I finally rooted the phone and flashed TWRP (ver 2.2.2.0) recovery with a custom ROM.
Everything was working fine until I tried to install a different ROM - I made a backup via TWRP, installed the new ROM but it wouldn't boot ... no worries I had the backup ... I accidentally selected FACTORY RESET from the bootloader instead of RECOVERY which seemed to have wiped all my data on the internal SD card - so my backup has been wiped.
I'm still able to access TWRP so I thought I could simply mount my SD card to my computer and copy my old ROM to flash - however I can't mount the SD card from TWRP - TWRP's console is throwing up "E:failed to mount /sdcard (Invalid argument)" and "E:Unable to mount /sdcard when trying to read settings file." errors - hence in the Mount menu, I can't check the "Mount SDCard" checkbox! (WTF?) - I Google'd this and someone advised that you will need to partition the SD card from within TWRP before it will allow you to mount it - I tried partitioning it but still throwing up those errors
I can also access the device from command prompt via adb - so I tried to flash a rom directly via fastboot but it throws up a "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" when it tries to flash it.
What are my options here? Am I completely screwed? I'm currently in the process of downloading the Telstra RUU - will this even work in my case?? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated - pulling my hair out here ... 2 week old phone
The RUU will make it all better
just lock your bootloader again before you run it

Hey mate,
RUU will work but before you do just try mounting it through twrp then plugging it into your pc.
When you're in the mount menu in twrp make sure you hit mount usb storage for Windows to recognise it.
When I did this I got a prompt in Windows that said it needed to format the drive so I formatted it then just copied over the rom I wanted to flash then unmounted and flashed the rom.

It seems you wiped/formatted your internal storage.
You should be able to mount by USB to your pc if you have your drivers for the device installed though I have never tried.
Few things you could try.
1.) reformat microSD card(fat32) and put rom on it and see if it is mountable again.
2.)If you are getting the message unable to mount internal storage try formatting the internal storage using twrp(data will be lost).

You'll need to use adb to connect your device whilst in twrp. However why don't you just copy a ROM to SD card and flash that way?

This looks to me as if you're another candidate for this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1803343
The instructions are for an old ICS rom, but still work with JB 4.2
You may want to search for users ssnova or jjgrantham in the CROMIX thread in the development section and pm them.
They had exactly your problem: only thing they could boot to was TWRP and solved it using above method.
Good luck, let us know if it worked!

I am not new to ROM's I have dabbled here and there with my phones and the xoom. I followed the directions to a t for the Omni 4.4.2. I did the first part for putting bigPart TWRP on my xoom. I have the recovery on there and I can find my SD card with the rom and other files on there needed but it will not load after I install everything. The internal storage still shows at 0. I get the Omni bootloader and then a message from google pops up saying encryption unsuccessful and I need to perform a factory reset. When I try that it just brings me back to recovery. I don't know what I did wrong but the only thing that works is recovery. It's like nothing at all is on the internal storage of the xoom. I have tried to copy the files from my sd card over to internal and install, same thing. When I go back to check the files I copied to internal they are gone. The files I have on the sd card are there but it won't load the files on the internal storage to set up android on there. I can't even go back to an old restore cause I was using cwm recovery and the those restore files aren't recognized. I'm at a loss, any help would be greatly appreciated. I can't even get my computer to see so I can push the files over to it and I am pretty rusty with ADB to try and set that up.
I just tried to push the original twrp 2630 through adb and it flashed, I tried to reboot into recovery and it just staid at the twrp screen. Ughhh I'm getting so frustrated cause I had the xoom working perfectly on JB before I started messing around. Any help would be great, Even getting me back to stock and I can take it from there.

I am not new to ROM's I have dabbled here and there with my phones and the xoom. I followed the directions to a t for the Omni 4.4.2. I did the first part for putting bigPart TWRP on my xoom. I have the recovery on there and I can find my SD card with the rom and other files on there needed but it will not load after I install everything. The internal storage still shows at 0. I get the Omni bootloader and then a message from google pops up saying encryption unsuccessful and I need to perform a factory reset. When I try that it just brings me back to recovery. I don't know what I did wrong but the only thing that works is recovery. It's like nothing at all is on the internal storage of the xoom.
