I have been downgraded the phone from 2.2 to 1.31 and then created the goldcard.
I started step 1 of rooting, it worked fine until I continued to step 2.
It happened to be like in the attach file
"failed to copy 'rootedupdate.zip' to '/sdcard/rootedupdate.zip' : I/O error"
then I selected Wipe option after that I tried to select "Flash zip from sdcard"
and it showed "E:No zip files found"
What should I do?
Please help me
and please excuse my poor English
Thank you

maybe you can try manually putting the rootedupdate.zip in your sd card root folder using your computer? then try wiping and flashing the rootedupdate.zip again when you get to that screen. I am not expert, just a thought
I'll write here what I wrote in another thread, I think it can be a solution for you as well:
Try booting to normal mode, then connect the device to the computer as a removable disk (or connect your sdcard to the computer with an sdcard to usb adapter)
After that, put on your sdcard the recovery update.zip found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=969076
after that, boot in recovery. press vol-up + power and choose "apply sdcard:update.zip"
Then you'll get a CWM recovery menu where you can install any ROM (should put the ROM on the sdcard ofcrouse), and that saves you from running step2.

Hi,
I just picked up my tablet yesterday, but am unable to install the clockwork mod. I followed the instructions in the guide thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
It is not loading the clockwork mod. I see the "Detect a recovery key pressed", see a black screen with nothing but the word "android" and then I see a large warning triangle before the system boots into the normal interface.
Could this be due to a recent change in their firmware that is shipped? Could I be missing something here? I create the folder in my removable compact sd card and copy the recovery.zip file there.
Please help, I do not want this tablet if it is to stay in the stock state....
Found out why!
I didn't extract the zip file. I simply renamed it. Stupid stupid stupid....
I hope that if anyone else here had that issue they will see this.

I started making .rar files now, just to try to make that more clear. Don't worry, I've done the same thing and I created the zip file! :O
My files are usually like this because I need to put the recovery folder in there, for non-clockworkmod users.
I'm having the same problem, However I did extract the files correctly like stated and didn't rename anything. However, I still getting the screens like you described in your post. Any ideas?
What is it doing

update.zip should be in the root of the card...then in a folder called recovery should b a file called command

I am having the same issues. Running the TNT 3316 build. When trying to install the Google apps pr clockwork mod it says recovery key pressed then loading recovery kernel. then it loads a screen with a status bar and quickly reboots without changing any files. I rooted with z4 root and a sideloaded root explorer works and mounts system. any ideas?
I had the same problem and spent hours on it. Originally I used a 16gb microscope card and didn't work...then I switched to an 8gb and it worked...probably has to do with the micro SD card size. Also, press vol. Up fret followed by power and release power when viewsonic start screen comes on. Then release volume button when upper left sentence comes on
When I had the same problem it was due to recovery/command in the cwmod_v08.zip looking for update.zip at /sdcard2/ and I had copied the files over USB so they ended up at /sdcard/.
Another thing to try (I have had to do this occasionally when CW won't install), in the settings menu under the security tab, do a factory reset. It doesn't lose my settings but clears up whatever is keeping CW from installing. Once I do a factory reset then the install works flawlessly. Hope this helps someone.
Thanks

I'm having the same exact issue. 16GB SD card getting same results; can't get into clockwork mod, get recovery kernel instead. I don't know why it should have anything to do with size of SD card, but I'll try it since you had success. Thanks.

I'm using a 16gb sdcard and it works fine. Make sure when you unzip the clockwork 0.8 file that you place it on the root of the sdcard and make sure the command file in the recovery folder is pointing to the sdcard you want to use.....if the line in the command file is "SDCARD2" then either change it to "SDCARD" and use the internal sdcard card or use the external sdcard.
SDCARD
/sdcard/update.zip
/sdcard/recovery/command
SDCARD2
/sdcard2/update.zip
/sdcard2/recovery/command
Make sure the command file is there. It deletes the first time you try to install
Thanks. That was totally the problem. Need to factory reset, because the settings that the gtablet is shipped with are not the default.
I am having a similar problem with not being able to install CWM on my gTablet.
I upgraded from bootloader 1.1 to 1.2 and I am currently running this (from About Tablet):
Model Number UPC300-2.2
Android OS version 2.2
Tap UI version 1.2-4349
Kernel version [email protected] #1
Build Number FRF91
I would like to flash the Flashback 10.1 ROM but for some reason I can't get ClockworkMod back.
After I do a nvflash I attempt to go into recovery. There I will see the stock recovery with only limited options.
I copied the CWM 0.8 recovery folder and upgrade.zip to the root of the sd card.
Then when I reboot into recovery I get " Recovery key detected" and "Booting recovery kernel image" It will just sit there like that.
So I tried to just flash the rom file as update.zip and I get back into the stock Android system recovery <e3>
Options:
System Reboot
Apply Internal update.zip
Apply external update.zip
Wipe Data/Factory reset
Wipe cahce partition
Calibrate Touch panel
below that I am now getting this:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk2
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD2:recovery/command
I am getting very confused :-(

i'm having a similar issue with trying to install cwm, bc1.3.1 update, flashback, etc, without nvflashing back to stock viewsonic rom....
just get the "booting recovery kernal image" line ad infinitum
i even just used nvflash to install cwm (which appeared to go properly) and when trying to get into recovery it still just does the same thing, sits at that second line...

I think I might have figured it out. I flashed the nvflash with this from here: http://viewsonic-gtablet-for-dummies.webs.com/nvflash.htm
nvflash with clockworkmod 1.2 branch.
Then I booted into that stock ROM
went to USB and deleted everything off the sdcard.
copied calkulin's format all and the flashback 10 ROM to sdcard
turned off device
booted into recovery, now CWM
flash calkulin's format all
flash ROM
Reboot
voila
hope this helps

i had found a calkulins but for some reason it wouldn't flash, but followed your directions and am into flashback honeycomb now, thanks!
now if only i can get it to connect to my canon camera so i can use dslrcontroller!
I was using Vegan then decided to get gingerbread.
Issues
1. I downloaded the new ROM and placed it into the root and made sure it transfered then I powered down.
2. I did not get this option Using the volume keys to navigate up/down in the menu highlight "Apply Internal update.zip" if you copied the update.zip to the internal memory or "Apply External SDCard update.zip" . the only option I have is "apply sdcard:update.zip. Is the the correct on? When I select it and then do yes i get. ( no such file or directory)" Instalation aborted". So, then I go to install zip for sdcard, choose zip, and then yes. Then reboot and then it boots into stock. Tnt works
3. I then install CMW and it works.
4. I follow steps to install ROM form http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
5. after install i do not get “install zip from sdcard complete” my say " install form sd card complete. Does this matter
6. I did not have these problem when I orgicanlly put on Vegan, now I cants even get Vegan. It say Vegan is installed, then i reboot and stuck at 3 birds again.
I am having the same issue no matter what ROM I try.
PLEASE HELP, I AM ONLY ABLE TO USE THE STUPID STOCK AND IT IS POINTLESS TO HAVE A GTABLE TO USE STOCK
I have no idea whether this will help you or not, but when I booted up my tab last night it was stuck on the three birds. I had to boot into recovery and do wipe user data/factory reset to fix it.
I am not using cwm or vegan...so again, this may not help your situation.
Hello all, I am a noob. I tried to install my first rom, OpenOptimus 1.48, from this tread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033653
I followed the instructions, wich said to get the file on the sd card then partition the card, then I get my phone able to boot in colckworkmod recovery but nothing else, file not found for install the rom because the partition is formated.. We are c urrently 2 noobs that this happened at the end of the posts on that tread.
So this is a kind of catch-22, now the compuiter wont recognize the usb, wich is the best method to get it working again now ? I am currently trying to get adb, if someone knows the treads to look for I'll be happy.
Thanks from Canada
Eh, the instructions do not say any such thing like to put something on SD card and then format/partition it. Anyway,
Either download the SDK, connect the phone via USB cable and do
Code:
adb push openOptimus-build-X.XXX.zip /sdcard/openOptimus-build-X.XXX.zip
and flash it from recovery like the instructions say,
or simply remove the SD card from phone and use a card reader to copy it there in PC.
Just mount usb storage from recovery and connect it to pc. The card will be recognized and then copy the zip file.

at the first page, instructions looks like that :
"
4.Go to Advanced>Partition SD Card
512 EXT(Do not create it if you do not want a2sd)
0 Swap
Remainder FAT32
5.Go into the main recovery menu and select "wipe data/factory reset"
6.Go to Mounts and storage>format /system
7.Go into the main recovery menu and select "install zip from sdcard"
8.Select "choose zip from sdcard"
"
So then I got the file on , then formated, so no more recovery . I have clockworkmod 3.1.0.0 installed.
I am trying to get ADB working, will try that. But looking at the instructions, is it me that is not understanding them well enough or are they written strangely ?
Thanks ;-)

Yes, the instructions do say that, but instead of blindly following them you should have realized that after partitioning the sd card all data would be deleted.
Anyway, the way to do this is after partitioning, select mount usb storage in recovery and connect it to ur pc(while still in recovery). The card will be recognized and you can copy the zip file. Then you can flash the zip.

I assumed he already tried that and it did not work (b/c of the "now the compuiter wont recognize the usb" part of the OP). Anyway, if not, then that is obviously the most easy way to get the file there.
Man I think your stock rom should still be working. Reboot and it should boot into your previous rom. And USB should work. Even in recovery u can mount sdcard.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
I got a sd-adapter...
Well, no usb-mount while in recovery, adb is complicated to install and so I went to the store and got a micro-sd adapter and a new card with more capacity. Then no more complication to install the rom to the card & phone..
Thanks folks
hi
I ahve downloaded a pkg from dell and want to load the phone back but i am just getting errors
it says it cant mount the SDCard:Update.pkg
any ideas ??
This is the wrong section bro. Are you using the stock recovery?
Sent from my Dell Streak 7 using XDA Premium App
If you are trying to install from recovery rename the package to update.pkg. This will wipe all your apps and settings.
You must use stock recovery to install a .pkg file.
You may need to flash the proper recovery first.
See: Radimus’s Universal Guide to Flashing a ROM
Note: if you downloaded direct from Dell tapping on the download complete notice in the notification should start the update process.This will update without wiping your apsp and settings.
followed that guide and when it should be installing from SD i get the following
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(no such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.pkg
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(no such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
sorted now, that guide sorted it, but had to change SD Card it was not working in the streak but was ok in the PC.......
anyways... I have never been so happy to see the O2 screen in my life

I had same problem with SD today. Windows PC doesn't format card correctly for phone. Remove the external SD card you are currently using. REPLACE WITH CARD THAT WONT WORK. Reboot phone until it will reboot completely. Go to SETTINGS==>SD CARD & PHONE STORAGE==>UNMOUNT SD CARD==>FORMAT SD CARD. Card will now work in Streak. MAKE CERTAIN YOU DON'T FORMAT THE CARD THAT IS WORKING!!!!!
I've had this same problem, I can't flash anything. I've tried to flash 1.9.1, because I only have 1.9, and I get the same error. I -have- tried changing the name. Doesn't work. Can anyone give me a complete step by step to fix this?
i got it solved
so... this is how it's happened to me.
when i reboot the streak after i fastboot flashed the streak with streakmod recovery, the recovery will be back to stock recovery. so... i have to delete install-recovery.sh from /system/etc to prevent the streak reinstalling the stock recovery, before it succeed to boot android OS.
so i flashed to streakmod recovery and reboot it to go into recovery mode and plan to choose "update from sdcard".
and when i tried to choose the update.zip from sdcard, there's error message:
"can't mount /sdcard"
so, i think that maybe because my sdcard was plugged into PC and got 'half-mounted', so recovery can't mount it.
so i powered it off, eject and re-insert the external sdcard again, powered it on and go into recovery mode, choose the superuser.zip to root my streak... AND... TADAAAA.... i'm all rooted
Hi I was on the last step of installing Cyanogen Nighly build 116 on my SGS2 and got to step 7 of the guide on their wiki
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide
but I couldnt find my external SD card on Clockwork mod recovery. I tried to reboot back to my normal samsung OS so I could use USB to put the 2 update zip files on my internal storage but the phone is now boot looping. I boot up to the samsung logo then the phone restarts.
What do I do please?
Hi again,
I have tried booting in download mode which does nothing but show me the android man withthe word Downloading... underneath (VolDown, Home, Power). I have tried booting back to Clockwork Mod recovery (VolUp, Home, Power) and I have tried messing around with adb to see if it sees any devices- which it does, it sees
304D19A75555E24E
but it doesnt accept adb push update.zip I guess because the phone is busy rebooting :S
My guess would be you've installed a different version of CWM recovery. Choose "Install zip from internal Sdcard" instead.

Hi
It says Clockwork Mod Recovery v4.0.1.4
It doesnt have an option other than install zip from sdcard
and it doesnt see the external sd card either.
I have
- reboot system now
- apply update from sdcard
- wipedata/factory reset
- wipe cache partitions
- install zip from sdcard
- backup and restore
- mounts and storage
- advanced
- power off
I chose install zip from sd card
then chose zip from sdcard
and I get the internal listing of files on the internal phone storage but no access to the external sd card. There is a folder there called, external_sd but when I select it, it just says No files found. It shows this when the sd card is inserted and uninserted though.
Do you know any way I can put the update files on the internal phone memory from my PC? I have adb installed and the android sdk. but adb wont push files to the phone. I used to know a way to boot the phone with fastboot but dont remember how to do that any more
You need to tell it where to save the file if you're going to do adb push, i.e. adb push update.zip /sdcard/cm7.zip, but you might need to mount somewhere to store it in mounts and storage first for it to work.

ah but I cant get it to boot so I cant get it to mount. The closest I can get is getting adb to recognise it as a device while it is bootlooping (it only gets up to the Samsung logo then reboots)
I did try "adb push update.zip /sdcard/cm7.zip"
failed to copy 'update.zip' to 'sdcard/cm7.zip' : Read-only file system
The phone is still rebooting over and over. Out of curiosity, would CWM not give the option to install zip from the external sd card if the phone didnt have root?
I bought this phone from a friend and he said the phone did have root but I actually am not sure if it does. Would that also cause me not to be able to use adb to push the file because the internal sd card was read only?
Either way - how do I get the phone back to a usable state please?
I mean from within CWM recovery, which you said you can access (ADB should work there after 30 seconds or so).

booted to CWM - waiting for pc to notice phone exists so I can use adb...
... nothing is happening. (tried using mount usb storage too)
EDIT1: I rebooted CWM and when it came back - tada - windows noticed it. Ran the ADB command and the copy has worked over 36s.
Watch this space...
EDIT2: Got the phone to finally let me upload update.zip (the 116 nightly build from cyanogen) and gapps (for cyanogen7) using the mount option under Clockwork Mod recovery
installed update.zip
installed gapps.zip
rebooted and...
stuck at
Samsung
GALAXY S II
GT-I9100

nothing is happening, the phone doesnt boot... but CWM has changed colour to a pretty blue and I am now on v5.0.2.7. What am I meant to do next? I ran out of steps on http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide
Flash the update twice in succession, if the first one was quick.

yes your right, it was quick. I flashed it again - much slower this time and it seems to be working - I finally got off the stuck screen. Currently watching the new cyanogen mod 7 boot screen.
