You cannot mount storage on Nexus devices. You were right with pushing a rom with adb, but it seems your drivers aren't installed correctly. Fix the driver problem and you'll be able to push with adb.

Thank you very much, I had lost all my hopes and then your message striked a string in my head and I was so silly doing the adb thing in the bootloader! haha .. it will obviously response as device not found if not done in the recovery.:laugh::laugh:

This sort of happened to me before. try downloading and installing the file attached. It should do the trick. N.B- You need to have root access.
ok thanks. I have root access (i think, fairly new to all this, apologies).
How do I run the file??
Thanks.
sorry to be a pain

Boot your phone (make sure the file is on your phone), then simply select the file and follow the onscreen instructions. After that, select it's icon in the menu and choose to allow it to automatically operate when USB is connected. Then just allow root access and you're good to go. Try your rom flashing again and it should be successful.
hey
thanks for your help, but I currently have no ROM / OS installed on the phone, so can only boot into recovery / fastboot etc.
not into android os.

Since you can boot into recovery and access your phone from your computer, then just flash the stock windows mobile rom to your phone. I think that would work and it does make sense. If it does work then you can continue doing what you want after you have done it.
Do you mean flash it via fastboot? I'm sturuggling to get files across from my pc... sorry to be a pain...
I can access the SD card to drag files in recovery. but cant isntall from the sd on my phone.
tried flashing files direct to phone with fastboot but coundt. probably just got it wrong. gahhh.

Have you tried a different SD Card or a sdhc card? One of them might help.

I need to purchase one first, hopefully will get chance this week.
Any links to best guide to make a goldcard btw?
Thanks.

You should mount the sd card using recovery and then use your PC to copy the zips you need back to your sd card and then flash them. Some recoveries will automatically mount the sd card as soon as you connect the phone and the PC with the usb cable. In others you may have to go into the mounts (or Mounts and Storage) menu and select mount USB storage or sd card.

Try to push rom file through adb side load..
I happened to me once..
Try this..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2575150
Plug her into computer
Make sure drivers are working for adb by mounting storage than running the command "adb devices" assuming you have set up your sdk. if your device shows up. Run this
"adb push ROM.zip*/data/media" in the prompt.
If your device is not recognized.
Update drivers manually using the device manager on your computer. You will need to install the drivers. That's easy. Just look up how to. That should fix it with minimal confusion

CWM can't mount sdcard

First of all, by sdcard I'm talking about Internal Memory, not external.
Dudes, I know, I've googled a lot about this, but it's for flashing a ROM, but that's not my case, please reply, advices or anything will be appreciated.
Ok, I got a phone from a friend and she wants it rooted, fine, got it, installed CWM, copy the root package in memory root and everything's fine!
The only problem is when I'm trying to flash the package, it can't mount the sdcard and I can't locate the package to flash. I would do it by sideload but there's no option to it.
Tried by deleting the SDcard content but no solution.
Please need help, advices, anything.
If there's no solution, I'll buy a 2GB sdcard.
By the way, the phone boots normally, can enter fastboot, adb, CWM, no problem. I can see the files in the sdcard in Android.
It's a Huawei Ascend Y210, with GB 2.3.
I have the exact same issue with my Moto G GPE

Well, I gave up but there's something you can do, remake Android system partitions.
I don't know how but if you do that with adb shell parted then you'll have the mmcblk0 file that you need to mount the sdcard in CWM.

FIRST: calm down please
Which version of CWM is installed? You can mount USB storage in the recovery and simply copy a rom to your sdcrad as it will be handled as usb mass storage. In case you can't mount storage --> we'll get it working another way
WHY you use adb to copy files? Mass storage is even more easy + safe

Device must connected to pc... If it does not mount try restarting the recovery and do again. Close all adb instances on your computer.

[Q] Wiped storage, now USB OTG not being mounted by TWRP v2.8.0.1

Hi,
I'm in deepsh*t right now !! ... I was about to install new ROM for my Moto G XT1033, so I wiped clean everything, and while doing the same way, USB OTG was inserted, went back to mount option to mount the USB OTG, but it doesn't mount it, basically I click on it and it doesn't work, is there any other way or I will have to throw away my phone now ??
Is there a way to manually move ROM data to the root directory or under any directory there using just a cable and adt-bundle ??
Nevermind
TWRP wasn't detecting it due to some FS related issue of the pendrive, i just formatted the pen drive from TWRP, though it wasn't mounting I just wanted to check the wipe option for USB OTG, and it formatted into its recognizable FS, i think it would still be NTFS, but anyway, working now !! ... Almost had a heartattack ...
But anyway, if anyone knows, if similar happens, how to move files directly under root access using some tool or commands, connecting the phone with USB and laptop please give an update

Use adb sideload
Agree with post above. Just use either ADB to push a file to your phone or use ADB to sideload a ROM to install.
Try this!

Goto Fastboot Mode and Install philz_touch_6.57.9-falcon.img and try using OTG cable. Make sure the pendrive you use is in FAT 32 format.
