K, Seriously, I KNOW there are threads that are even TITLED "STUCK AT RECOVERY, HELP"
But (especially for a developers site) search seems to suck and I can't find what I want!
Its a simple noob problem. Installed 3d party ROM. Installed new kernel. won't boot and stuck at recovery. Koush's recovery "sees" external_sd card, but doesn't find the ROM I want to flash.
Help? Thanks
ALSO, if there is a better way to search these treads please let me know!
I simply type "stuck at recovery" and it pulls up pages and pages of CRAP where the words "stuck" and "recovery' happen to be used...sheesh.
No Luck For Lazy
Search Does Not Suck. Your Search String Sucks
I'm not sure if you have to flash the kernel. I would try wiping everything and flashing the rom only and see if it boots.

You should try placing the rom on the internal sd. I could never get the recovery to actually mount the external sd. Not really sure how to get to the internal sd when stuck where you are though. Maybe adb?

Just the fact that you cannot use a wildcard in a boolean search string = the suck.

Small disaster. Trying to upgrade from 18/04 Hydrogen ICS to the 13/05 build. I flashed the 13/05 .zip in recovery after wiping Dalvik and Cache. Booted as normal, until I found all gapps were dud icons (I did not flash 29/04 version as I thought that I could keep my earlier version). Irritatingly, while USB Mass Storage worked correctly with my PC and I could use file explorers like ES and Astro, when I booted into recovery I could not do anything. I have a nandroid backup from 21/04 which I'd like to restore, but clicking on both 'install zip from sdcard' and 'mounts and storage' just gives an error message saying 'can't mount /sdcard'. I have no clue what to do, any help would be much appreciated...
Please help...
Seriously, does anyone know what to do? My phone is almost unusable, I can barely launch any apps. Is my question so stupid it doesn't bear replying to? Somebody please say something...

Do you actually have a microSD card? If not, use "internal SD card" options.
Also, why are you using "install zip from x" to restore a nandroid backup?

I do have a 16GB external SD. I was not trying to restore nandroid via install zip from SD, I was only saying that originally I wanted to reflash the 18/04 build, and only when I found that this didn't work did I attempt restoring my backup. sorry if this was not clear.
Thanks for the reply. I tried to find instructions for remounting my SD, but a search of this forum didn't yield anything. Perhaps this is the wrong forum

Unless I'm using the wrong method, I can't flash the 'proper way' since the install zip from SD card path doesn't display my SD. I can put the gapps and ROM on the SD via PC, but I can't access them when I disconnect.
I'm not convinced you understand that there's a difference between "install/restore from sd card" and "install/restore from internal sd card". Have you actually tried both?

I haven't, but only because I know where I keep my ROM on my external SD! I have changed ROMs at least five times before on this phone using this method and I am a veteran (if I can use such a hyperbolic term) of the MoDaCo ZTE Blade forum. I hope I know what I'm talking about. Being treated like a hopeless noob gets pretty boring after a while. Fact is, I can't access my external SD inside recovery. I get that my explanations probably don't make enough sense, but I'd like a specific suggestion to my pretty specific problem. Sorry if I come across as a little blunt, I'm just rather frustrated that I haven't found a fix in 3 days...

You hadn't given me a reason to treat you differently, and a lack of ability to do these things on your own for three days kinda goes with the assumption .

Boot your phone, copy files from microSD to internal memory, reboot to recovery, use internal SD options.
hey guys
the title of the thread sums it pretty much up.
i had cm9 on my i9300. but i was having trouble with it. when i call somebody i could hear them, but they could not hear me.
so i decided to switch to ARHD.
i followed the guide.
accidently i put super wipe and the rom in the internal sd card.
after that i did the super wipe. then, logically there was no rom in the internal section anymore.
now i cant boot. i tried to put the rom into my external sdcard but it says "E: cant mount /sdcard/
do you have any tips what i should to now?
i have no backups

Good for you mate, but next time read carfully what the developer said about installation of his OWN Rom.ok We all learn from mistakes and ur not the first or the last person to do so.
i agree to nhariamine formating the ext. SD card before using it is the first step so your phone will recognize your ext SD card.
Good mate. Did you manage to install arhd now?

I have read a lot of forums on this topic. I wanted to root and get cm10 and join this android community, but unfortunately I went wrong somewhere. I used CMW and got CM10 working, but for some reason, it does not recognize my sd card. I tried clearing it out, formatting through recovery, and all that did was cause me to lose all my data. I did the work around with having s-on, but can't see how that can be an issue. I can't access my ext or internal storage at all, not even through my pc, I have no aps and no ability to download apps due to google market not being install. If this has already been answered, please send me the link, because I searched most forums and none of the solutions posted has worked for me.
The only thing I can do now in terms of internal or external memory would have to be in fastboot, because even with cm10 running I can't access my internal or external memory though pc.
Does cwm recognize memory? Can you mount storage to pc using cwm? You can probably format the internal that way. You really should be using twrp, cwm causes more problems then its worth

i would not use that recovery if i was u.. it messes up your misc partition.. i would flash twrp 2.2.2 asap.. no one uses cwm recovery on the evo LTE.. it dont work correct on this phone boss
I managed to get twrp, but still the same issues, even twrp refuses to mount internal or external storage. I even partitioned SD, reflashed and still nothing.
It may be time to relock and run ruu
Maybe flashing a new custom ROM with twrp?
I thought you had lol. Try that and failing that I would fall back to ruu

How are you gonna flash A ROM I'd you can't mount or access your internal or external storage in any way?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Let them figure it out lol
Hello everyone,
I had previously rooted my original evo a while back and recently got the new evo lte, and thought "Oh I can root this all by myself." Big mistake
Okay, so, I made sure to unlock it using the HTC dev. Then downloaded Rom Manager and tried to put the new cm10 rom but for some reason it was coming up with sd errors. So, I looked up what could possibly be the cause behind that, which I thought was the previous Rom Manager data from the old evo. So I deleted it and well had the same problem. I also made sure to do the Hboot fastboot thing too.
Then I download the TWRP recovery and things took a turn for the worst. Now my external/internal storage is unreadable to twrp, ironically so, I can still use the USB for the sd.
I tried other roms, but it won't load them
Now, my os is gone and I just don't know what to do. At very least I can still use fastboot, but I really just unsure how I can well make it work.
so stat wise it says
tampered/unlocked
S-ON RL
Hboot 1.15
Radio 1.05.11.0606
OpenDSP-v25. 1.032.0405
I am also running a mac.
So, if anyone can set me in the right direction, that would be super.
For one reason or another some users have problems flashing cmx and corrupting internal. Boot to twrp and mount as USB then format it in OSX.

Thank you for replying. So I want to mount the internal storage and format it in Fat32?
Also, when I go to the mounting menu, it will not let me press "Mount Internal".
However, I can mount internal storage using USB storage method, I don't get it...
Selecting mount as usb storage is all you need to do, at the very least you should be able to do that, then format, fat 32 is the default so there is no need to specify fat 32
Format the top one, correct?
Sorry for the late reply, that should be it
No, Thank you.
So, I did reformat. It still cannot find the internal storage/SD storage.
So, can I push RUU through fastboot to return it to a functional state. All this for Jellybean, haha
I had almost the same thing happen to me over the weekend for the first time. I was about to reformat it in twrp and that worked great for me. So give that a try before you run a ruu

I already reformat the internal and it made no different. I also cannot reformat within twrp, it just says cannot find and fails.
I think I've misunderstood, if you reformatted and can not access memory from aosp Rom try flashing the sd rewrite fix
swap internal/external links

I don't know exactly know how I am going to do that, since the recovery does not recognized the internal/external storage. When I mounted via USB and put the zip on there, I cannot find it within the recovery.

I'm coming into this late but I recently experienced corrupted internal storage while running cmx as well. While I could not choose to mount the external storage, I somehow was able to select that bubble when in the restore menu. I restored an old meanrom and it rebuilt the internal storage despite losing the data. Not sure if this info will help you at all, but figured I would share. Good luck.

When I was able to flash a new rom [as I am now unable to really access my sd card] it would install it, however, it would boot past the the splash screen and would go black. I didn't think I had to flash the kernel before hand, perhaps that was my problem.

If you get the red x during the repart it's usually a sign one of the internal partitions could be messed up. Not always the case though. Maybe it's the version you were flashing.
Did you try changing the internal partitions in any way? During the process of SD boot did you use the zip file that had SD boot setup?

i'll be honest, it used to be a device for develop only... it got messed up somehow and i got it like that... i really dont know what they have done to it..
im sure theres a way to fix this, i just dont understand nothing in NT

Well if all you care about is android jelly bean just use and SD image.
http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2012/11/18/cm10-0-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet/
Its simple to use, just write the image to an SD card and you're good.
Stock bn sucks, a lot in my opinion. I expected so much more when I bought it. Reason why I run an SD image. If you want nook books just download the app from Google play.
