Wrong forum dude...that's for SII Plus...That's what you're looking for -> [Guide][Root+CWM] Samsung Trend plus GT-S7580

Flashing RR 5.4.6. on my wife's phone, s2vep, TWRP-2.6.30, flashed via Odin 3.09.<br />
It says it's "patching system image unconditionally" for 10-15 min now.<br />
Is this normal?<br />
Sent from my GT-I9105P using Tapatalk

Hi! I tried installing first TRWP, then CWM, first via Odin then via Zipfile, because I wanted to install a custom ROM on my i9105p. All recoveries worked, but the problem is that NONE of them, no matter what type (TRWP or CWM) or version I install, are able to mount my External SD card! An error comes out like:
Code:
E:Can't mount /storage/sdcard1
Error mounting /storage/sdcard1
That is where I put the zipfile of the ROM, and if the recovery cannot mount it, cannot flash it.
I also tried formatting it, in different FS (FAT32, exFAT...) in Windows, and also to format it directly in CWM, but it does not recognize it. Just as if it didn't see it.
How can this be possible? What can I do? I don't know if I can just flash the ROM copying it into the internal storage memory instead than external SD card... I don't want to mess all up...

Asking Ambychy (or perhaps anyone else willing and able to assist)
From http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/xperia-e-tools-t2841797/page2
First of all thank you Ambychy for this thread thus helping noobs like me.
From your thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/xperia-e-tools-t2841797
I have downloaded the following :
Xperia E ss stock Deodexed Rom.zip + Xperia E Dual stock Deodexed Rom.zip
Im TOTALL noob at flashing ROMs (especially remote-wise via usb).
I manage to root my ("Xperia E C1505", I belive was called) through some youtube video advice...
Some Indosiean (I think) modded rootmaster thing. Whatever... I had too because for some reason I could not get Frama solution to work, but this did....
So anyways... Now Titanium and all that worked.
My problem is :
I managed to screw up my phone. I certain its hardware-wise ok...
Long story short = its stuck at "Android is updating" forever and ever until I psycichally remove the battery.
I cant back into it. software-bricked.
I removed too much from the ROM as I had faith in using Titanium to restore my saved system-apps.
First making them into user-apps and removing them that way, later on leftover odex-es in "system/app", all dalvics and
whatnot whould do it. To lastly finish off with "make phonereset" via normal "settings"...
I was stupid...
After removing most, and about to reinsert later on via TB, I took a wildcard and removed "Home" aswell.
It was stuck in an infinite loop of pressing ok on it as it kept saying "blah had crashed" without ANY gaps in between at all, leaving me no choice but to reboot and sending a prayer I at least come back into it to continue restored sys-apps via TB.
So i belive i must use some remote PC program to reflash it...
So what program for my PC do do you recommend I use?
(and it even more kudos to you if you can direkt me where to grab it).
I also got a 4 GB external memory.
Perhaps putting whats in the zip onto that via another phone, then moving that external back into my broken one might do the trick?

Exe files?
When I try to download the zips for BigPart Twrp and the wingray BigPart boot image, it downloads executable files? Why does it not just download the zip files as promised?
Exes
I tried downloading one and instead of downloading the zip file I wanted it downloaded EZ Downloader, and broke my Chrome browser. Why can we not just download the zip files required to change over to the BigPart repartition for xoom?
I made a huge mistake. I installed TWRP 2.6.3.0 fine. Unfortunately I got distracted and forgot to flash twrp bigpart. Instead I skipped to the step where you wipe everything but the sdcard, and when I rebooted to recovery, the screen hung on the teamwin splash screen. When I did a hard reset and tried to reboot manually into recovery I get the motorola dual core screen with a message saying "starting fastboot protocol support", and it just hangs there. Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated.
Disregard, I finally got it to boot back into recovery manually and went on from there.
Guide
9) Go into install. Recovery should show your microsd storage by default. If not, using the navigation panel, navigate to root then go into "sdcard". Flash your rom, BigPart boot image package, and any other resources as you normally would.

But I don't see the files on the memory card
from FAQ
Q: Followed the instructions for the re-partitioning. Everything worked except the Xoom cannot see the external sd card in recovery. I have re-formated it as fat32 and tried another card. When I view the files in the PC they are there. Any ideas?
A: Something something went wrong... Copy the data from the SD to your PC, format SD and put back data. Let's see if that works...

it doesn't work

another card is working correctly!

Motorola Xoom bigpart repartition touch recovery
Hello, never rooted xoom but want to so I can have KitKat. When I try to download original TWRP 2.6.3.0 touch recovery it takes me to a smut video. Do you have a link to the real file. Also since I have never rooted this device, do I have to do something else before I follow the big part repartition upgrade. Sorry very green about this.
Thanks!
Trouble with flashing BigPart to WingRay unable to wipe or mount data
I have tried a lot of ways of flashing the BigPart partition (TWRP 2.8.6.0 for BigPart) but it seems that every way I do it is wrong. I think I followed the directions correctly but every time I do it I either get a password request to login to TWRP or it starts up but says that the data partitions is not able to be wiped or mounted. Most times I can not select the data check box. Please help me figure out what I am doing wrong or tell me were to go. I really want to flash the 5.1.1 but I am getting no where.

Your question seems not to concern my Turbo Data thread, Sir. Please clarify your question.
I bought this Card
xxx.kingston.com/datasheets/sdca10_us.pdf
I think is not the best but i should feel a boost or not?
So yesterday i did all this here.
I make 2 Partitions:
1. Label "Storage", Fat 32 7GB
2. Label "Data", Ex4, 8GB
Then i try with the CM12 from Shanur and from ivan.
First i run the Start.bat then i took the zip and run over "MakeaNewImg"
Then i flashed this new zip, after that i flashed Gapps, start the Phone but it is so slow, it showed me that i have 8GB but it was only slow.
Tomorow i will get my Sandisk Extreme Pro and i will try it again. But did i something wrong? Need i to flash Kernel maybe or something else?

Root Explorer Doesn't Work
I've been trying for several hours to install the 04-27 version. Before I was using the official 0216 nightly. I'm currently stuck with no phone, data, or wifi service and can't copy sdcard0 back, and I think it's because I can't get root explorer to work in ES File Manager or the default File Manager.
When I try to enable root explorer in ES, it tells me "Sorry, test failed. This feature cannot run on your device."
I first tried flashing the cm11 rom from twrp, booted normal, power off (have to unplug cable for that to work), then boot into twrp and flash superuser zip. That didnt work so I've tried booting to twrp and flashing both cm11 and superuser together, still same results.
I'm pulling out my hair here, I want phone service back.... what is going wrong! How do I get superuser back and restore my [email protected] Help!
Please don't crosspost - it dilutes the community effort and is kind of rude.

Build Questions
Hello,
I'm trying to build an image, based on your repository and CM-11.
I checked out:
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/mionica/android.git -b cm_cm-11.0
repo sync
Running breakfast fails no matter if I select:
cm_moto_msm8960_jbbl-user or
mionica_moto_msm8960_jbbl-user
Error: Can not locate config makefile for product "mionica_moto_msm8960_jbbl".
Also isn't the path supposed to be "device/motorola/moto_msm8960_jbbl", instead of "android":
Code:
<project path="android" name="mionica/android_device_motorola_moto_msm8960_jbbl" remote="mionica" revision="cr_kk_xt897" />
Thank you!

[Completed] How do I make my external SD card primary storage for my device?

Okay, I'm having some issues with my device being a Samsung Galaxy Avant. I have gained root access and TWRP as well as AOSP ROM flashed... Because who wants stock? So since I'm always looking for ways to make my phone better than the rest and with out spending an outrageous amount I ask how do I get more space on my device. I have a lot of music and new music is always coming in and while using a file manager works, it tedious and unsettling if something goes wrong. So I appreciate any answers or hints.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
To do this, you need to modify your fstab in your boot.img to be able to redirect internal storage to say, a second partition on your SD card. But it's messy (especially if the bootloader is locked), and full of considerations (e.g. puts extra load on a sensitive SD card).
At any rate, please go ahead and create an XDA account, so you can post in the rest of the site. Then, check out the following thread:
