[Q] Flashing question sorta? - Motorola Droid X2

I was just wondering, is it ok to delete a zip from your sd card after you flash it? Or do you need to keep it on there for it to work? Just wanted to do a little summer cleaning on my messy sd card!

It can go.

I'm getting the mounting error on my internal SD card now.wont let me transfer files or music over without that dam mounting error. Tried everything.problem is I can't get the mountingfix to flash now using Rom Manager. Wont work.think its because its for e2 recovery and I'm now using e3 recovery.

I'm trying to take my mind off it by using my phone for music and videos.so please help me out.thanks a million friends!

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!

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.

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

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?

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!

[Q] Corrupted/"damaged" SD card. Few Questions

Hey, I recently got a damaged SD card message, and before I do anything, I have a few questions.
I'm on CM7.
1. Does anyone know what usually causes this? It seemed unprompted.
2. If I reformat (hopefully I'll be able to get all my stuff backed up), what do I do about "update.zip." Does CWM still need that to run? Where do I get the zip from?
3. What is the best thing to use to reformat it?

If your already on cm7, update.zip is unneeded, so don't worry about that.
Most if the time its ec09 that eats sd cards but on cm7 its not really common...were you ever on an ec09 build?
I suggest using a digital camera to format it after you have backed yet up of course.

Question: sd card repair wo reformatting?

I've been on beans 7 since it's release. Have tried all other tw based roms and nothing really compared Imo. Thought I'd give an aosp rom a try. I went with liquid. It was impressed but I wanted my beans back. When I restored my beans nandroid backup, I get a damaged sd card notification. I thought I saw a zip that fixed this issue a while back, but I can't remember what thread I saw it in. I really don't want to reformat my sd card. It's a 64 gb Samsung. Any help is greatly appreciated. If I'm insulting anyone somehow, plz forgive my noobness.

If you're computer will still read the microSD card then you can use this app to recover and backup your files then you can format the card and put your files back on it.
