It was a stupid mistake, i pressed up down up down and it disabled the back button, and something happened which refreshed the screen so i had to press up down up down to unlock the back button, but it wouldn't show without me doing something and as i went in to have a closer look, i must've pressed the format internal sd option. Stupid me
Now i get that menu with 14 options ticked, ranging from RSD, Fastboot, Android Recovery etc
I've reflashed Romracer's recovery on there, couldn't restore nandroid backup but i reflashed CM7 and it boots, but it doesn't show the Motorola Dual Core screen and instead, this screen shows up. Is there any way i can fix it? Is it safe for me to flash intl-fix-try1.sbf and try doing fastboot oem unlock again through RSD without a chance of brick?
I went from stock 2.2 Tmobile to CM7, then onto Alien, then Homebase and now on Ninja. No OTA whatsoever. Thanks!
To anyone who has this menu, i fixed it.
The problem was that during the format, logo.bin was deleted (the red M logo) which normally covers up the menu. All i did was search for a boot image in the atrix forum and flashed it via
fastboot:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
Hope i helped!
Hi,
I did the same thing, formated the internal partition to 0mb... and now I also have the red logo missing. Another issue is that the soft keys are not working anymore, did you have that problem too?
Is it even possible to use the partition again or is it gone forever because I partitioned it to zero?
I am soooo lost here

It worked for me, thank you so much!
It happened the same to me... and I did all what the guy who created this post did.
But, Why I CANT flash the nandroid? ... I can flash any other custom rom, but not my own nandroid.
Do anyone knows what really happened to us?
We could fix the "visibles" problems... but I really think something's still broken inside.

Hi I would like someone to help me, I bought a Motorola Atrix 1 week ago from ebay, and this atrix was updated by the seller to 4.5.91 with Android 2.3.4.
I unlocked the bootloader all went fine after that I installed CWM everything was great until I wanted to install Cherry Blur.... I flashed it and when I rebooted everything it just stucks on a Infinite Boot Loop...
What should I do I cant flash anything else and dont know how to mount the phone internal storage to flash a new zip.
Please Help
Pull Battery if you havnt already hold Volume down and power button
when you go to boot your phone back up. hold until it says fastboot
Use volume down to cycle thur menu then up to select android recovery
Once in recovery go to wipe / factory reset ( WIPE )
Then Wipe Cache
Then Scroll down to Mount
Scroll all the way down to Mount as USB plug your cable in
and it should show you your ext sd card must have one .
Copy a Fruit cake file or Kenneth build of gingerbread or w/e.
Then go back to install it.

This happened to me yesterday. For me it was a case of grabbing the wrong CMW file. In my zombie state I somehow grabbed the 2nd newest. Worked fine after that.

Was running CM9 and wanted to switch it up, so I downloaded MIUI from my dropbox. That set off a string of ClockworkMod Recovery updates and automatic flashes and reboots. Now I think I'm screwed. When I boot up, it just sits at the Motorola logo with Unlocked at the top corner.
Luckily I did a NAND backup before doing all this (something I usually never do because I'm an overconfident flasher), but now when I try to restore I get the error saying "can't mount /system!"
I'm on ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.8, can't get the SD card to mount either.
Am I screwed?
Try 5.0.2.7 recovery.

If I can't mount my SD, or boot the phone up, how can I do this?
EDIT: Genuine question, it could be read aggressively but I'm serious, I don't know lol
duh, fastboot. Just reflashed the original CWM recovery....we'll see
That did it! thanks bro!
Good job.
Recently decided to try and switch over to CM10, and have been having an issue with recovery. Both of the latest CWM and TWRP recoveries freeze for me after booting into them. The only recovery that works for me is the one that is flashed with the old app by Indirect but that flashes a really old CWM recovery. The recoveries that I have tried flashing are the ones linked to in the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877217 thread. Both http://celticstorage.co.uk/cm10/CWM_v6.0.1.5_emmc.zip and http://celticstorage.co.uk/cm10/TWRP_v2.3.1.1_emmc.zip are doing it. I have a 16GB that ive kept (rooted) stock forever.
What happens is i go to boot to recovery, go through cyanoboot to recovery, and then CWM freezes up and blackscreens after I try to wipe something or install a zip, TWRP just locks up immediately and gives me a black screen. Any help fixing this would be greatly appreciated.
Use this thread to install CWM, I'm not a fan of TWRP. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25786947 I used this and had no problems updating

This has been happening to me occasionally. I have found that when I get the black screen, pressing the Power button launches Recovery (CWM in my case). See if that works for you.
I now have the exact same problem. I've always ran off emmc. It says cwm 6.0.1.5 is installed. When I try to either wipe, or install zip-from-sd, cwm freezes then goes to the black screen. I cannot install any zips, so right now the tablet has nothing installed only a freezing cwm recovery it seems. I can use the power button to get out of the black screen and into cwm thru cyanoboot all day, but get nothing but these same steps reoccurring. Freeze, then black sod. I'm ready to try anything but cannot flash anything.
To the rescue
Ok, I have posted this on a different day. Try this with a blank sd card. Look at the bottom post called "Here is a video"
It a external boot cwm v.5 but you can copy this into your sd then flash and you have cwm v6.0.1.5 internal. Either way you have two ways to do recovery (external and internal):victory:

Well, I think I need to clarify more. Maybe somebody can help if I give more info. I've had cm7 running perfect, then decided to install cm10. I first flashed a cwm 6.0.1.5 zip to emmc. I did a factory reset via this recovery thinking my next move would be to flash the cm10 zip I'd put on the sd. No joy. This is where I'm at now.
In recovery it freezes and reboots to the "2 androids" screen with a sod. I hold power for 20 sec.s to turn off, then turn back on and get to cyanoboot fine. There, if it's allowed to just boot it freezes at the 2 androids. If I hold "n" to get the menu and recovery (6.0.1.5) it looks normal, will boot to recovery OK until anything is selected like the cm10 zip. It freezes before any selections can be finalized, and boots to that sod screen.
I know nothing of ubuntu! Sorta scared to go there with my limited knowledge. But will read up if it's required. Is it possible that this new recovery image don't play with what is currently on the sd? Is there anything I can put there that it may recognize in order to get a flash? Man, I'm lost!
Look pass the fear and go one step at a time, before you know it, your there.
It looks like you have already resolved this from this thread.
Ok, basically I'll go step by step.
1. Download ubuntu iso from ubuntu website (you can donate or put 0$ then download iso) and burn it to cd. 5 minutes
2. Stick the cd into a system that you don't plan to look at the video that is showing you the process and boot it up from a reboot and not from within windows. Select the left square which basically load the ubunbu from cd but does not install anything to your hard drive.3 minutes
3. You can view the whole video but I would skip to the section in video (3:28 watch to 4:43, 6:56 watch to 8:06 ) where I mentioned the setting the two flags in your sd after quick format fat32 and extracting the four files into your sd within ms windows platform from the post . I did this with a normal mini sd card adapter and not the usb stick adapter he used in the video. Since you are doing this to a blank mini sd then there really nothing to worry about since it is blank in the first place. 2 minute
4. If you had your apps backup with titanium backup then it still will be on the main mini sd and not the one that working with for this recovery.
5. I notice you did not mention wipe dalvik cache from your post. You should always wipe dalvik then wipe factory then do a single flash to test boot up.. You can flash gapps after a successful boot up into jellybean. (here's a video showing that I'm using external cwm v.5 even though its recommended to use v.6 .) You can always use cwm v.6 on your next cm10 test rom or use cwm v.6 to reflash to same rom once a successful boot up have been obtained with external cwm v.5. This purpose is to get it running on your nt.
6. Be patient for the first boot. Should not be more than 5 minutes max. It will look black then load. If it boot loops then wipe dalvik then wipe factory and do a single flash to test boot up again.
This will at least get cm 10 flavored rom on to your nt.

Got it back! Thank you for your help & patience. Also for the timely responses. I now have a bootable "recovery sd card" for curing these type problems. I've labeled it & filed away for any future borks of this kind! And I have cm10 up & running stable.
Thank you!

Update:
I wiped inner SD, recovered image, complementary of marvin, however I am still hanging on dell logo. Inner SD is confirmed to be working (at least on the surface), because it can still transfer files with fat32 partition.
I can access recover, fastboot, everything, just no qualcomm.
I flashed DSC 2.0 and streakmod recovery, still no go. WHAT CAN POSSIBLY BE WRONG WITH MY PHONE???
I bricked my phone and wiped EVERYTHING from the INNER sd card, which in hindsight seems to be a terrible choice.
How do I repartition it to the original condition??
I used gparted, however I cannot use yaffs2 as stated here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_5/Partition_Layout
I also don't know how to name them, or put them in the right location
I believe when all is finished I can finally use stock recovery + rom... Right now it just gets stuck at dell logo no matter what recov/rom i flash.
Qualcomm drivers are a no go as well, couldn't get them installed for some reason, fastboot is fine.
bump, plz help
BUMP, help plz

So I tried TWRP and have had extremely bad luck. I thought I bricked the phone at first, then it was stuck in a boot loop, THEN TWRP could not read from the internal memory, and to top it off, when I finally got the phone to boot up, I went ahead and bought a sim card and got it hooked up to ATT, and when I inserted the sim card, it automatically rebooted the phone into TWRP and reset everything (deleting all my apps and stuff) and got stuck in a boot loop.
I had an old phone and used clockwork mod recovery without any issue. Does anyone know where to find a CWM recovery image for the z5 compact?
Actually, if anyone has even the STOCK recovery I would be forever grateful. I would rather stock than TWRP at this point. I don't want to risk my phone being reset and having everything deleted again.
Same issue, unable to boot rom, TWRP has no access..

I am experiencing the same issue. I would like any working recovery/rom at this point. My Wife has the identical phone. Can I make a copy of hers to help the OP and my phone out?
I followed the following;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-sony-xperia-z5c-t3339930
and have tried a few times now. As well as other versions of TWRP..
On a side note I wouldn't mind testing new roms/features being implemented by developers. Please let me know where the best place to get involved would be.
Thanks in advance,
David.
found a boot.img and TWRP that worked for me..
So after a lot of flashing I found one that works.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/z5-compact/orig-development/twrp-z5-compact-t3235161
at least I can get twrp working for now..
I still can not get CM installed. Each time I get 'Error executing updater binary in zip'. I will have to do some more reading tomorrow.
