Did you follow these directions?

Yes. I put it at the top of my root and everything...lol im having issues! haha

Should I wipe my data??

After wiping data, it didnt work and I have no 3G now.?

Did you sbf back to stock first? If it failed at verifying current build maybe because you were rooted with bloat frozen?

I have both a update zip that is a green box with a zipper up the middle, and I have a folder that is a update.zip and it has 7items in it? Should I delete one keep them both move them??

Make sure you have: http://mydroidfiles.com/downloads/TBH/P3Droid-DX2-Patched_GB_update.zip
Rename that to update.zip on your desktop computer.
Copy that file to the base directory of your SD card.
SBF back to Froyo.
Factory reset (twice)
Wipe cache.
Apply update.zip
Wait.
Glory.
EDIT: I know you are going to tell me you tried this, but that is EXACTLY how I did it. That above update.zip is the one that fixed the assertion error. Just try it.

HAHA THANKS FOR THE HELP MAN! But. I tried it on my mac, and it worked first time!! YEE!

I am trying to flash the mountingfix.zip file by putting it onto my internal sd. Upon reboot into Android system recovery 3e, and choosing "reinstall packages."
I get the following problem:
E:failed to open /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip (No such file or directory)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
Any fix for this issue please!

You can try pushing the file with adb and be sure of the directory, also it's case sensitive. And have you full formatted the sdcard to fat32?
I'm sorry, I know how it feels to lose someone close to you.

Just tried reformatting it through system recovering and also the SD card setting.didn't do fat32. And why do almost all the froyo Rom's have that mounting error. Even the T-Mobile froyo Rom has that issue. And yea i was close to my dad.

How would I reformat the internal SD card with fat32? That's the one I'm having issues with.the external SD card started work.so now i just need the internal one to work!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Can't you fastboot flash the e2 recovery and try again? Or try another sdcard to see if the card is the problem or not. I know you're probably not that a rookie with this stuff but sometimes you can forget some simple solutions.

I need to get back to e2 recovery or make the internal SD card work. Any ideas. Shh driving me nuts

Any ideas please. I don't care about flashing or using other Roms. I just want this dam froyo rom to work correctly. Can't use the internal SD card to save music or anything else to it. So please help me out!

What kernel are you running? I had that same error when I ran eugene super kernel. Try a diff kernel. Also can you copy it.to your external then move it to your internal thru your phone. I had to do it that way on axura 2.1. Im sorry for loss bro. Ill keep you in my prayers.

Running Stock Leaked Froyo Rom
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
First of all, I am very sorry for your loss.
I think that the problem may not be your sd. I think it's a problem with Clockwork. Check out this thread and see if it helps.
HOLY SH-T
this just happened to me too haha!
I was trying to get into ClockWork, by clicking reinstall packages, it said the same error as yours because i deleted the update.zip which you probably did...
Here's what i did to fix, on ROM Manager, i clicked INSTALL CLOCKWORK RECOVERY
and the update.zip appeared on my SD and it started working again.
Sorry about your dad.
Is this going to fix my internal SD card issue? How do I fix this issue without using the mountingfix.zip? I'm now using e3 recovery not e2 so wont let me install any update.zip file. Using Rom manager. Can't get clockwork recovery to work with my Stock Leaked Froyo Rom. So how do i fix this issue. Not looking to flash a new Rom just want my internal memory card to work right! Thanks a million

[Q] SD there but not there

So I'm running JT's vanilla Gingerbread. And after a day my SD card is not showing to be inserted thru gallery or if I try to download to. However I can play my music find ringtones on the card view pictures thru other apps and when I go to storage under setting it say card mounted and shows memory. Also something else weird is I can't delete anything from the card. Not really sure what's the problem and could use some advice Thx. (update) So two days now I've realized the problem has nothing to do with the SD card it self, everything is still there and I can do back ups from it as well as export contacts and flash in recovery. The problem seems to be somewhere in the rom. Gallery show a message "Sd unmount or not present" as well as I can't delete anything from the card thru the phone. Root explorer says it's deleted but it's not, every other way I try I get a "file can't be deleted" message. I can view pictures and video thru astro just not thru gallery. So I'm thinking this is not a wiped or fried Sd card issue but something with thew rom, I'll try flashing powerwashed rom and see if the problem continues and update.
If your running anything gingerbread expect your sd card to get wiped, do a backup asap.
Keep me Fascinated.
I am having the same problem

I would try backing up the card, then formatting. Not sure if it will work, but it's something to try.

Can't find ROMs on SD Card

Hello all, I searched but couldn't find an issue that matched mine.
I rooted with Odin and Superoneclick, and I have CWM Recovery 5.0.2.3. Been trying to flash ROMs from my SD card using CWM. I put the ROMs on the root directory of my SD card.
If I choose "choose zip from sdcard" I get what looks like the root directory of the actual phone, so I tried "choose zip from internal sdcard" and I get the error "E: Can't mount /emmc/"
To clarify, I have my music on my SD card and I have no trouble accessing it to play music. There is nothing else on it but music and ROMs.
Any help?
can you see them in file explorer? I always save them to a folder "ROMS_Kernals" I placed on the on the the internal sdcard ... /mnt/sdcard/ROMS_Kernals
Do you have USB debugging checked in developer settings? Not sure if that matters. But I think it might.
Also be sure its unplugged and not mounted to your PC.
i'm no expert but these are the steps i'd take.
Mine always end up in /sdcard/downloads - but I guess if you cant even see the mounted card dont matter where they are... Can you see your storage in kiesAir and verify the files are there?
File Explorer helped, I got it working, thanks a ton. MIUI and Litening both flashed with no problem, but I'm bootlooping CM7 so I'm looking into that.
Thanks again.

Indeed. Remembered reading that the other day and tried it out right after I posted. Just installed Google Apps, now time to decide how much more I like this than stock.

For me hdmi out is too much to lose with cm7. I hope they can incorporate that.

[Q]Flashing a custom rom

dumb question: im planning to flash a custom rom. Done with unlocking and rooting and i have cwm. Should I need an external sd card? Or is it fine to put the zipped rom in the internal sd card?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
You don't need to have an external sd. You can flash with your phone's sd.
I would use an SD card, every rom i flashed has been installed from sd card

Use "install zip from sd card" instead of "update zip". Don't remember the exact words.

it might help to know exactly what steps you're taking when 'flashing', from installing the rom on the phone to your 'flashing' steps.
install zip from sdcard / choose zip from sd card (& or internal sdcard) / sdcard / olympus_gold_edition_USversion.zip (and AOKP)
I have a samsung epic 4g and flashing on there became second nature to me which is why I dont understand what is going on here. I have everything that I need to run custom roms but it just wants to be stubborn

if you read his instructions he specified that you need to place it as a backup and restore to that rom
Yup i think its a backup not a flashable zip

Try installing from internal SD. Perhaps your external SD is messed up or slow......

Hello, I hope I am in the right thread.
Ive just purchased a nook tablet and i cannot find any instructions on how to root it...either the instructions are on another firmware, or the links provided will not work.
currently i am trying to use this thread to root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21895025&postcount=14
i have done this process 3 times and still no luck. will anyone please help me root my 16gb nook tablet running firmware 1.4.1?
nook root 1.4.1
i get as far ass rebooting to the "apply update .zip"
everytime i select "apply update" the nook starts the process, but then show a "installation aborted" message.
how do i fix this?
Try downloading the zip again (I actually never seemed to have an update.zip on my card) or download the zip file from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1488035
And put it on your SD Card then flash it through CWM. That's the method that worked for me.

when you say "flash" what do you mean?
i used the disk imager to enable me to get to the screen that has the option to "choose zip from sdcard"
i hope thats what you meant....stil new to this, sorry.
Are you trying flash update.zip or flash zip from sd card? They are different options from within the recovery. You want just the one that says flash zip from sd card. I'll grab my nook and get the exact wording from the cwm sd card I made if you need me to.
Even if you named the zip update.zip, I'd still use the option that let's you pick it yourself.

?
i think it was because i used a class 2 sdcard rather than my class 4...going to retry. will post results
well that worked like a charm, i cannot thank you enough kind sir...
before we wrap things up here, can you tell me how i can jailbreak this tablet so i can use apps i downloaded from thepiratebay?
once again, thank you so much LiquidZoo.
Dave
I don't condone piracy, and it's against the forum TOS, but you can Google it. The answer is there. It's not a jailbreak, just enabling non-play store app sources to side-load.
Glad you got root working, though.
