Somehow I installed rom, by adb sideload and now I noticed that roms isnt fully working. Camera apps says 'Insert sd card befor using camera" or something like that. I can't download files from internet it shows "download unsuccesful". I think it is somethinkg with storage, could you help me ?

Thanks but pardon my ignorance but when you say install 2 times, do you just put the files on your sd and reboot in recovery twice or am I missing something? Thanks.

Yes put it on your internal sd along with the ROM you want to flash, boot into stock recovery and reinstall packages 2 times, the second time it will be in the green clockwork recovery and you can select install zip and then pick your ROM and flash it.
theres also some more help in this thread here

Thanks. I'll read over the posts.
One last stupid question (probably not...lol). After I mount my phone and open the icon/folder on my desktop do I put the zip files in the sd subfolder or just on my phone along with the other folders?
ok uhhh to avoid confusion if you have an external micro sd card pull it out connect your phone to your pc (make sure you are in usb debugging mode before connecting) pull down your notification bar tap the option that says "Select to copy files to/from your computer." then mount it on your pc you should get a popup that asks what you want to do with your removable storage click open folder and whatever folder it opens into is the one you put all the files into you should probably have like a DCIM and Android folder in there also
Got it. That does clear it up nicely. Thanks again.

[Q] Can't find zip in recovery mode when trying to install rom

Hi All.
I'm new to this and trying to install my first rom (aiming for cynagenmod 7- it has the language support i need, or so they say)
I rooted my phone and followed a yourtube video titled "How To Install CyanogenMod 7 Nightly on T-Mobile G2x after Nandroid Backup"
When i get to the part where i need to install zip from sd card, i can't find the file. I went back and copied the zip file into a few different folders, and although i can locate the folders, it tells me that the file cannot be found.
How do i get around this? Your help is much appreciated.

How did you download it? Through rom manager or from the phones xda app, browser? Look in folders with xda or rom manager?? Next time just copy and paste it to the root of the sdcard, not in a folder.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
Downloaded it on a computer and then copied it to sd card
and you can't find where you put it? did you place it in a certain folder already created... you can plug your phone in to pc then enter recovery mode, go to storage and mounts at the bottom select mount usb then copy the zip to your sdcard in no folders.
When i try to do that t tells me unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory).
From recovery mode there are some folders i can't see when i browse the folders on the computer when the phone is booted up normally - and vice versa. Is this an indicaiton of a problem?
Silly question: do you actually have an SD card inserted in your phone? If so, what did you use to format it?
i do have an sd, and i actually didn't format it. should i format? if so, what is the best way?
Your help is much appreciated

Did you try, while in recovery, taking the back off your phone, pop out the sd card, wait 1 second, then pop it back in?
Stupid question, but it's a mistake some beginners make, but did you unzip it by any chance? That could be a reason CWM isn't seeing it. Once you DL the ROM you need to leave it untouched. Then place on SD.
After that in CWM go to choose zip from sd.
And you attained CWM via NVFlash correct?

no, didn't unzip, left it as cm_p999_full-201.zip
and yes, did get the CWM via NVFlash
Maybe you accidentally copied it to internal memory instead of the sdcard. You can check in cwm under internal sdcard I believe is what it is called.
When you connect the phone through USB it mounts both internal and the sdcard.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
My file explorer sees it in both the root and the folder I created in the root - both can't be seen in recovery mode.
Should i list the directories i see in both views?
In cwm are you selecting install zip from sdcard or install update from sdcard
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I ask it to install zip from sd and not update

you may have put it on the "internal sd card" instead of external sd card, however this is not an issue if you flash CWM 5.0.2.0 or later, it has an option to install zip from internal sd and external. i renamed my external sd card to avoid future confusion (otherwise i see two "removable disks" when i plug my phone into my computer)
Check your file names on your SD card. Check what you see listed in Recovery. If you see differing file names, then you're accessing the wrong memory.
I'm going to assume you tried booting with the physical buttons. Try booting with CWM which should give you a blue menu.
i did try to boot both ways and both times i did not find it... for the millionth time i took the sd card out and put it back in and rebooted using cwm, and funny enough, it found the direcotry... and yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, cynagenmod7 is my new rom
thanks for all your help, support and commiseration... really, much appreciated. i do ve a few more issues that i have to research now... again, external sd not found though... will probably solicit more help
again, thanks

Don't unzip the file. When you flash anything via clockwork, it flashes using .zip files.

[need help] Problem with bootloop and internal storage

Hey guys,
I want to repair the i9003 for a friend and I'm a little bit confused o.0
I own a i9001 so I'm familiar with Odin and that stuff.
He gave me the device which only had access to the Download Mode. So I flashed a Stock ROM (MODEM, CODE, CSC, ...). It ended in bootloop and previous appeared note in recovery that it wasn't able a access to the sd card anyway ("unable to write to ums lunfile" and can't mount).
I flashed various Stock ROMs but everytime the same conclusion (bootloop). I've already tried to format/(un)mount sdcard through CWM but no chance.
Can anyone help? I read about a method where you have to open the device and connect something to the mainboard but it isn't my device, so I wouldn't do it.
Need help

if phone is rooted go this dir mnt/sdcard/(files)
u can do this with wondershare mobile go program (wondershare mobile go is a software that allow u to manage phone file edit or install app or read massage that nice):cyclops:
so.. mnt/sdcard(files) .export those files with wondershare mobile go from that toolbar .
see can u do this or u will get error during export(beware after export import it and make backup) ?or check it maybe these files are deleted and sdcard folder is empty like my problem.
all my regret is why i didnt backup from that.when i bought it first day.
anyway i have same problem .phone doesnt recognize int/ex sd card and unavailable keep goin thread to find .wont fix with flash by odin at all .
tell me about those files try find them maybe they are corrupted .like mine.i think must take it from other i9003 that hasn't sd card problem.when u find plz upload cuz i need too
and it this case problem will fix with a simple copy paste and if not u dont lose nothin
I can't do that. When I type "diskpart" in cmd.exe and "list disk" there will be no device found (only the hard drive in the computer).
But the PC recognize a device connected to it because in the taskbar the icon for a connected USB drive is shown.
In short:
- device doesn't boot normally (bootloop at logo)
- in stock recovery and CWM there is no internal sdcard shown ("E: can't mount sdcard")
- windows recognize a device but has no access to it
Is it possible to use adb sideload anyway on the i9003 or anything else where I can use adb.exe? I don't know if adb works in Download Mode ... does it?
I tried this CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351056 and an another one with green letters.
The first is quite outdated (packed in 31.01.2012).
Is there a newer one?
Here are photos what the Recovery (stock) says after Odin flash (stock firmare)

i had exact same paroblem
do this maybe work (worked for me) .
this problem occurred when i used 16 gb toshiba as ex sd card (doesnt matter brand) after flash sd card and format it by pc that said ex sd remove unexpecteldy and turned off and whole battery charge was over. then i changed ex sd with my other phone and it work with no problem and when i replaced again 16 gb toshiba in phone ,again problem.
but after i format internal storage by phone from setting/phone storage . phone couldnt mount int sd till now.
so i inserted new ex sd and flashed whole rom with odin (MODEM, CODE, CSC, ...) phone started but without int storage i found out sd card directory is different and wont fix with flash STOCK ROM .but i doubt it for Custom ROM.
then i took ex sd card out from phone and turn it on again phone didnt boot up and was hang on samsung logo (same problem with 16 gb toshiba).then put that new ex sd card in and phone was boot up with no problem but int storage didnt come back..
so try with new ex sd and try flash rom (MODEM, CODE, CSC, ...) with odin then it will boot up.

and if ur int sd card come back again it will solve E:cant mount sdcard .first do two prior steps . for bring back internal sd again i think we need >>mnt/sdcard/(files) and copy paste those files in that location from other i9003 phone to our devices IMO cuz i tried many method they are useless. upper 60% im sure those files will revive int sd
I already solved it by destroying the internal memory on board and force install the stock ROM on an external sdcard. I successfully installed CM11 and it works except camera and downloads ^^
hi, have anyone found solution on this issue?
i am also facing same issue....

Hi Friend,
I have the same problem. flashing Stock, Kernel , custom rom. Nothing make my phone successfully boot up.
Can you help me how exactly you did this. It might give a life for my friends phone too...
Remove or replace microSDCard.
Perform a clean flash with ddlf2 or original firmware.
And let us know how it went.
Also i see people saying this mistake several times...
Internal SDCard or SDCard stands for phone storage.
Emmc/External Storage/ External SDCard Stands for the microSDCard.
Noting that custom roms usually change the names.
With a custom rom the microSDCard is called emmc inside the system.
Please press "Thank" button if it helped you.

How to fix /mnt/local shows empty?

Hello, i have a problem with the internal storage of my android tablet, basically i installed a custom rom a while back but the wifi didn't work on it so i decided to go back in CWM and wipe data, cache + dalvik cache and /system, after that i restored my backup and everything went good (app installs fine from playstore and they work) but i can't see my internal storage on the integrated file manager or even from my pc, it just shows my sd card, the folder where the internal storage was is /mnt/local and now when i go there even with adb it shows empy, so with adb i went to /data/media and i tried this command i found on the internet :
mount -o bind /mnt/local /data/media
but it didn't work i still don't see anything in my /mnt/local dir
(and now after using that i don't see anything in my /data/media either)
my device is running Android 4.0.3 ICS and it is rooted, i also tried to restoring my backup again but i still have the same issue :/, before installing the rom i also created an image zip from the recovery just for safety but now im stuck as the only thing i found on the internet was one video of one person that just factory reset his phone and it worked again for him but for me it didn't, here is the video i saw, which has the same problem as me:
Thanks for the help.
Ok i fixed my /data/media directory by using umount /mnt/local, now if i do ls in /data/media via ADB all files show again but still no internal memory on file manager.

yes i did, i tried zarchiver but it shows empty, and when i connect the tablet to pc it only shows one drive named "Sd Card" when before it showed "Sd Card" and "Internal Storage" folder, i think that by restoring the stock rom the mnt/local got unmounted
