trying to install rom from sd card (phone has been wiped after trying to install leedroid 3.0.3) and I get the following messages when in recovery;
unable to moun't sd card
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1)
(no such file or directory)
E: Can't mount /sdcard
HELP!!!!
Does this when I try installing from SD, formatting SD, all sorts. I cna access the card though from the computer when I select mount USB storage.
any ideas? I'm phoneless at the moment. eek. Thanks

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 haven't tried another card yet no.
I need to purchase one first, hopefully will get chance this week.
Any links to best guide to make a goldcard btw?
Thanks.

I recently flash one of the g2x to bionix 2 and it does not recognize the microsd anymore.
How can I go back to another rom without using sd card? It boots up and loads fine.
Clockworkmod recovery will still recognize it. Did you try booting into recovery?

No recovery won't delete the files on your memory card during a normal wipe of user data.
You can also get into recovery by powering off the phone and then holding the volume-down and power buttons at the same time until it boots into recovery .... assuming you nvflashed the recovery to your phone.
i can use nvflash to get into recovery, but when i try to browse to sd card, nothing.....

Which recovery did you flash? There are 2 versions. One mounts the internal memory and the other mounts the external sdcard. Make sure your files are in the appropriate location for the recovery you flashed.

i did both and they did not work, i ended up with the external.
wat u do mean by files are in appropriate location ? i thought i can put those rom files on the root of the sd card.

Yes you're correct. You can actually have them anywhere you want on the sdcard. What I meant was they need to be on whichever "sdcard" your recovery is mounting, whether its internal or external.

The only other suggestion I can come up with would be to flash the other recovery, the one that mounts your internal memory. Use a file explorer app on your phone to move the rom .zip to your internal memory and then boot into recovery and flash.
Maybe your external sdcard slot is fried? I dunno. If its not recognize by your OS or recovery then it seems like a hardware issue. Just my opinion based on what you've been describing.
Ok, I've spent about 8 hours on this and read a million forum topics, flashed everything upside down, five ways to sunday and now and I'm giving up:
I have adb, fastboot usb, unlock code, TWRP, HTC sync all working (as far as I can tell)
I successfully loaded AOKP latest build onto an external SD card, installed it with TWRP and it will get to the loading animation, where it loads permanently and will not complete.
My assumption is that it is trying to mount the sdcard and data folders and cannot, I believe this because in TWRP, I get error messages saying "E:/ unable to mount /data" and the same for /sdcard.
I successfully updated TWRP with a recovery image to 2.3.3.0, which did not seem to help, but it is functioning and I can get to it reliably.
at teamw.in/project/twrp2/66
I tried chmod 755 for the data and sdcard folders, but they don't mount so it appears that is not taking hold.
I have wiped and erased pretty much everything (probably too much, in frustration).
So now I can have a bootloader, TWRP, or a spinning unicorn logo, but my phone won't do anything else.
I'm stuck. Can anyone figure out why I am hanging at the loader or what I'm doing wrong?
I appreciate the help in advance

Hi,
What does it say at the top of the page?
According to the rest of it,there should be no reason for the ROM failure.
I am not very familiar with TWRP.
Would you be willing to install 4EXT recovery ,and trying again?

It says "revolutionary" at the top of the bootloader
ok, I did the 4EXT thing, copied, wrote over the image, flash rebooted and the phone cycled, and up pops my spinning unicorn gears as before. Still spinning....and spinning....I waited 5 minutes.
Is there some way to check into the mount permissions or something? Could I have messed that up and that is why it won't finish loading? This whole unable to mount /data thing?
More ideas?

Hi,
Sorry,it is not clear.
Did 4EXT install?
Or does the spinning occur when you try to load a ROM?
Next thing I would suggest is to back up your sd card,format it to FAT32,and replace all your stuff.
Do not worry about the Android files.They will be installed when you load the card.
Format all partitions (except sd card)
Download a ROM,place it on the root of your sd card,check the md5 checksum,then,run it.
Yes 4EXT installed.
It said "error could not mount sdcard" but booted anyway
In 4EXT it still won't mount /data or /sdcard I do see that the SDcard is formatted as FAT 32
I'm a little confused, you said to format sdcard to fat32, but your next line says to format all partitions except sdcard?
When youi say you did the whole 4EXT thing, do you mean you installed AOKP using 4EXT Recovery?
If you can boo tinto 4EXT right now you will find a mounts menu that will allow you to mount and unmount just about everything.
You MAY see that the internal storage and SD card are already mounted. Unmount them and remount them. If that doesn't work unmount them, reboot into recovery, then remount them. 4EXT is pretty powerful and handles mounting pretty well.
I don't believe you deleted too much off the phone. I simply don't believe it. It's posisble to do that, but you wouldn't have access to the recovery module. If you can boot to 4EXT I am certain this is fixable.

Because you want to format everything and there is no option to format everything. You have to do everything internally and then do the SD card separately. It's to prevent you from accidentally screwing yourself up.
But actually before you format the internal memory, take the SD card out and try to boot. See what happens. It's possible that your SD card has an error that is causing the boot loop. Take it out and see if you boot all the way to the android home screen. If so, your ROM is installed. Just format the SD card after that and it should work.
Ok, booting into 4EXT and going to the mounts menu, when I hit "mount /sdcard" or "mount /data" it gives me an "error mounting..." message. I can mount and unmount system and cache though. I think that's the issue...any way to make those mountable again?
I will format everything and see if that helps...
Nope, it won't allow me to format my sdcard, since it is not mountable. Other partitions formatted with the exception of /sdcard/.android-secure since sdcard will not mount. I don't have an external sdcard in at the moment...should I put one in to do all this? I assumed /sdcard is the internal memory, no?
Toggle usb storage also gives me an error message " E: unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory) Unable to connect to your (internal?) sdcard. If that helps understand the situation at all
Thanks for the glimmer of hope with "I am certain this is fixable"

Hi,
Yes.
These are 2 separate instructions.
Format all partitions (except sd card) is something you will find in 4EXT.
It should be used to clean your phone before a fresh install.
Format to FAT 32 is something I suggested you do to your sd card,in case it has some error or other,which may be preventing you from flashing a ROM.
In any case,try the mount/unmount thing that Skipjacks suggested first

Ok, as before, I could not format sdcard due to being unmountable. /data is now mountable though, that's progress!
It seems the internal sdcard being unmountable is the crux of the problem. Cannot format or repartition or mount internal sdcard.

Hi,
2 choices:
1.Use a card reader
2.Use another card
I would suggest number 1
It can then be formatted in your PC (better than on the phone)
And it is an extremely useful tool.(quicker data transfer)

But that is my internal sdcard it is referencing that cannot be mounted. I can't take it out to format it in a card reader. I do have an external micro sdcard that is already formatted. Is there a way to use ONLY the external card, as it seems my internal card is messed up?

Hi,
OK.
I got the wrong end of the stick.
Why are you using internal?
To load a ROM,place it on the root of your external sd card.
When you choose/select ROM to flash in recovery,that is where the phone looks.
Not in the internal.

Ok, well I did not want to do the RUU if I could avoid it.
I think somehow, magically, you guys have helped me fix it. I took your suggestion of not trying to load a ROM onto the internal memory and just leaving it on external micro SD and leaving the external in while I run. (too scared to take it out after 24 hours of tinkering) But it is running now! Thank goodness.
Some combo of wiping and formatting with 4EXT in addition to my change in installation method (although I tried this same method yesterday to no avail) has solved the problem.
Thanks to the both of you! Real heartfelt thanks as well as forum button thanking.
Are there known issues w/ TWRP for Pie on our device where it can't decrypt the external SD card? (Yes, I searched, but the only thing I could find were people suggesting that people search for answers, so that didn't help much).
I unlocked the bootloader, adb'ed TWRP 3.2.3-5 temporarily, but no matter what I do TWRP can't mount my SD card. I've set an unlock p/w and a decrypt p/w and neither allow me to view the contents of the SD card. I also formatted the SD card but TWRP was only able to see it after i changed it to EXT2 then to EXT4, but then it reverts to not seeing it after rebooting the device and dropping Magisk onto the card itself.
So now I'm stuck w/ unlocked stock Pie which isn't rooted because I can't flash Magisk. I was unable to find a way to adb Magisk onto the device to avoid TWRP, but alas, I don't think that's possible.
So, am I an idiot (100% likely) or are there known issues where we can't actually root via TWRP (either temp install or perm install) and I've just got to be patient until it happens? (Or maybe downgrade to Oreo, root, flash an Oreo ROM e.g. LeeDroid then update it through Magisk).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's nothing to do with the format of the Sdcard, it won't mount anything larger than 32gb when flashing from the Sdcard (Sdcard ruu flashing) it also won't allow you to flash magisk in temp twrp, Ive tried formatting all cards i have ,then tried again. In one of the main instructions of rooting it says no bigger than 32gb can be used. I can flash HTC 10,U11 & U11+ using a 128gb card but not the U12+ ,it won't recognise it in the bootloader /download mode when trying flash but works with any 32gb card I've tried (fat or exfat) I'm using a cheapy, this caused me no end of grief when I tried to root, twrp 3.3.1 was the only version I could boot twrp (2.47.709.1 htc 621)

It won't mount Sdcard for flashing if bigger 32gb, had to buy a card lol, you can downgrade on HTC u12+ . I bricked mine & went to 1.53.709.3 ,took ages though & several reboots after flashing Sdcard method, there's a exodus thread on how to do it, I did it on dugl imagine ruu, Sdcard method. Have you looked on Android file host for ruu?
Hey. I was tryna install custom ROM on my device. The first time i installed TWRP on my phone it asks for a encrytion key. But since idk what the hell was that and i thought it might be a bug, I tried installing TWRP again and this time it doesnt require a key no more. And here's the weird thing, in TWRP when i look at the select storage it shows the correct size of my sd card and internal storage just fine. but i cant see the rom files either on my internal storage or sd card. I put the files on both storage but it just doesnt seem to read my files in there. I'm pretty sure i have enabled usb debugging and i have unlocked the bootloader. any suggestions on what else to do here? i have done wiping everything for few times too.
now i am stuck with a bricked device. can someone please tell me what mistake i did or what to do? :/

on the twrp main menu select wipe, and there are 2 choices, advance wipe and format data...
Data format makes all data stored in internal storage erased, so maybe you need to back up

if you have 'format data'... the 'internal storage' is erased so you will not see your own zip file in internal storage...
try use this...

but i suppose, the sd card should be able to show the files right? since only the phone's storage was wiped and the sd card also has my zip files. but in this case my sd card shows none.

Most probably you need to mount sdcard. See "Mount" on twrp. If sdcard not checked, check it.
