Hi thanks for your reply..
I already tried it with nô success....
More details please. What version of TWRP? MicroSD card or full size card in the dock? What's the filesystem on the card? What exactly did you "try with no success"?

Hi, yes you're right, more details:
I'm on TWRP 2.6.3.1
Zip files was on micro SD card formatted in NTFS.
And what I tried with no success is to find teh file on sd card location.
So I test FAT? On SD Card?

That TWRP version is very old... but should be good enough for wiping.
How did you try to find the file "on sd card location"? Using "Select storage?" Or did you mount using the mount page? In which directory did you look? external_sd or whatever it's called?

In TWRP I choosed "Install" option and look for .zip files I copied. I looked in folder SDCARD and EXTERNAL_SDCARD located at root and I found nothing.
I didn't use the "mount" option.

Which folder did you put them into on the card?
My guess is that they are in that folder
Which rom.zip files btw?
Well... I try to developp a little bit more to get some help.
I installed in my micro SD formatted in EX FAT format and in the SD card formatted in FAT32 format the two zip files dowloaded here:
Download CM11.0
Download GAPPS
They are installed at the root of both cards, there is no other files or folder in it.
I start in TWRP and then click install icon and look for these files everywhere and found nothing.
When I cick to mount icon, I cannot mount the micro SD or the SD cards.
Could you help me?
Is it possible to install another version of TWRP if the system does'nt start anymore?

when you enter twrp you should press on install, then there is a tab that says choose storage press on that and choose sd card, then carry on as you have been doing. twrp doesn't automatically show things on your micro sd card

Guys, I'm trying to downgrade my G1 from RC33 to RC29 using DREAIMG.NBH. But everytime I enter the bootloader, it tells me "no Image File".
I tried naming the file with "DREAIMG.NBH", "DreaIMG.nbh" and "DREAIMG.nbh", but none of them works.
Anybody could tell me what's wrong?
Thanks a lot.
the name is DREAIMG.NBH did you remove it from the zip file or are you renameing the zip.the nbh. is in the zip file add it to the sd card you may need to reformat your card fat32
I think this post may help.

I extracted the zip and copy only the DREAIMG.NBH file to sd card. is that right?
btw, regarding the reformating, I did it under vista. there is no option for FAT32, but only FAT. I chose it and "Default Allocation Size" option. I wonder whether that means I've already got FAT32.
Thx a lot.

The 'No Image File" problem solved. The problem turned out to be that vista formating only results in FAT16. I did it again under XP and got FAT32. Now image can be found....
But even bigger problem happens.
"UPDATE FAIL"...... now I cannot even mount the sd card to try a new image. I'm out of US, and bought G1 from ebay, so it's impossible to go back to T1 for re-flashing.... Anybody knows how I can mount to sdcard?

try another computer, your card has to be in FAT32.... I think it would have given you the option (format sd to fat32) regardless if your card is presently FAT32 or not.... My guess its not.
GL, hope you have already resolved your issue.
Im on vista and i get the fat32 option,im not sure what you did but the image inside the zip thats in that link.I know that works your computer doesnt have a card slot?
I just rooted my TF101 yesterday using Vipermod and I wanted to install a custom ROM on it today. I backed up my current settings using the backup on CWM and placed the revolver.zip file in my external SD card.I wiped my data to factory settings. However, when I boot into CWM and go to install zip file from SD card, the file is not there. It appears that the CWM was reading the data file on my internal SD card. So I tried putting the revolver.zip file on the external SD card but when I went to install it from there it gives me an error saying installation aborted. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you in advance for the help.
What version of CWM are you using?
Roach's version 3.2.0.1 will read from the external sd card
Roach's version 5.5.0.4 will read from the internal sd only
Team Rouge recovery will read from internal or external sd
I am currently running 5.5.0.4 so I guess it should only be reading from the internal card then.
And just to clarify, am I supposed to place the .zip file onto the SD card because when I do so it will not run, and I get an error message saying that the installation has been aborted followed by a dead android. Am I supposed to unzip the file and then place in into the SD card? Or is there another reason why I am getting this error?

Yes put the zip file on the internal sd card.
Boot into recovery and choose "install zip from sd card" (exact wordings might be different).
If it's not flashing I would check MD5SUM of your download file.
This is going to sound completely noobish, but how would I go about doing that?

You can go into the Google Play (Market) and search "md5sum" there's a lot of apps to do it.
Personally I use this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...251bGwsMSwyLDEsIm5ldC5kcm9pZGNvcmUubWFuZDUiXQ..
When you download a ROM or other files, the dev usually list
an md5sum, make sure the md5sum of the file you download match what is listed.
When a download is corrupted the md5sum (md5 hash) will not match up.
I just downloaded rogue CWM and then flashed that with CWM. Then I was able to access the external SD card and I am now currently installing the ROM.
Thank you very much for the help, thanks given.
yes,
it is important to take the correct version of cwm : 3.2.0.1 by Roach2010 !

It made me no problems and it was due to the fact that I did not have the latest version of Recovery
Please install latest cwm recovery, 5.x.x
older versions of cwm had this error. It didn't recognize the external sd card, so you had to move the file to internal card.
Did you try skin kernel?
Press thanks if helped

How can i get cwm to read from the internal sdcard does anyone know.
I think it does that by default.
That's why you have to place .zip in internal memory. (Tipo)

my j does'nt it reads external and there somthing wrong with the sd reader so i want it to read internal.
What are you trying in cwm? I think after selecting any option it asks if it should perform action from internal card. I've seen option in - choose zip from SD card, backup, restore.
Also try mounting in mounts and backup

Hello
I wanted to install Katkiss on my tf101. I wiped all the things I had to and headed to the installation part but my tablet couldn't recognize any external SDs. I use TWRP so it should have been supported.
I could get into apx mode but I don't know if I can put files on my tab from there. My PC can't recognize the tab if I try it in an other way. So someone can please help me and give some solutions for reaching the internal SD with a USB connection?
I guess I can install the files from TWRP after it .
Any help would be appreciated. ?
If TWRP is working, put files on a microSD and install the OS. Otherwise, you will need to use APX and something like EasyFlasher to install TWRP or the stock firmware.

I have spread installed TWRP as I remember I also used EasyFlasher to do it. As I mentioned my tf101 couldn't read any SD card that's why I've asked for a hint to put the katkiss files on my internal card.
How is the microSD formatted?
Did you boot to TWRP after installing the microSD?
What version of TWRP are you running? Not all of them support ADB via USB.
My TWRP version is 2.2.1.4 and the SD card is "general hierarchical". As I know I need a FAT32 card to make it work but I couldn't find a way to format mine. If you know a way to do this than it's also good for me. I also tried a FAT32 pen drive through the keyboard but it - of course - didn't work.
