I rooted my Motorola Triumph and did a LOT of customization to it and ended up needing to go ahead and put the stock ROM back on it. Somehow in doing this, my phone isn't working and I'm not sure what to do at this point. I got almost to where I was going to recover and restart, but I got this code:
Checking MD5 sums...
MD5 mismatch!
I downloaded Eclipse and got everything I need (I think..) including SDK and ADB stuff
I tried mounting my phone to my computer via the CWM boot menu, but that isn't working and I'm just not sure where to go from here...
HELP PLEASE!?
1. Place the rom on your SD card via the card reader on your PC
2. Re-insert it in the device
3. Boot into recovery
4. Do a full wipe of data and cache
5. Flash.
Is there another option if I don't have a card reader?

You have to be able to place the rom on your SD card. You could place the SD card in another device to transfer it from your PC then re-insert it in your phone (just use any way you possible to place the rom on the SD card).

So I had a restore point on my TMo Stock rom created using the Clockworkmod recovery. I tried to update to Axura 2.1 from 2.0.5 today and the update messed up halfway. I'm going to take a wild guess it's my horrible mac book pro's wrong doing, faulty download (I'm a mac hater, it's a company issue device). Anyway, my phone is basically stuck at recovery and I have to wait till I head home to use the USB Cable and redownload the rom.
So my questions:
1. Is there no way to access the external SD Card? So I thought of copying a new download of the rom to the external SD, but all I can access is the internal SD card contents when installing zip from sd card. I tried to mount ext-sd (or sd-ext?) and it fails.
2. I tried restoring to the restore I created when I had my stock rom. It seems to go through it but then it just goes back to the recovery after reboot?
3. When I go home, how do I copy the files to the internal SD Card? For some reason, I don't think it's as easy as pluggin the usb cable to the phone while in Recovery mode?
Help would be appreciated.
I am rooting my daughters Droid Eris. I used the app from the market and flashed Cyanogen 7. Everything went well until I tried to start restoring her apps and found that the phone is saying there is no sd card. When I go into setting to mount it it is greyed out and wont do anything. the gallery and rom manager also say there is no sd card. the card I am using is not partitioned. I tried taking a partitioned sd out of my old Cliq and putting it in and then it says it has a unsupported system or something like that but I did notice that the mount sd in settings was no longer greyed out. If I reboot into recovery it will recognize the card because it lists what is on it. I have searched everything I can find and cant find any answers. Oh, also, when I plug in the usb to the computer it does nothing then either. Any Ideas??
Go into recovery since her phone can read the card from there and reformat the card. You may also want to wipe data and dalvik and reflash the rom to be on the safe side.
Make sure that you backup anything currently on the SD card before formatting it, which you can do from the usb-ms toggle option in recovery. You will need to copy the rom file back to the phone after formatting the card which can be done from this option as well.
There should be an android.secured folder on the SD card. Delete that. You don't want it on there so make sure you don't copy it back to the card (it will come back after the first boot and it can then be left alone, I like to delete mine before each flash though to avoid possible problems.)
EDIT - DONT FORGET TO FLASH GAPPS RIGHT AFTER FLASH THE ROM! ALL CM7 ROMS REQUIRE THIS!
Let me know if you have any problems

Totally of the topic BUT I'm Selling a fully rooted Droid Eris running CM7 port ROM for $90...interested PM me.
I recently upgraded to the new MR2 radio and GingerBAMF 20-5. For some reason, I forgot to put pg05img.zip in a different folder after I installed it. It had been working fine for a few days, but when I tried to install a kernel through RomManager, it started to go downhill. This was my first time attempting to install a kernel. I had "Wipe Dalvik Cache" and "Backup Rom" selected. After installing the kernel, the phone started up with the HTC logo as usual, but it just went to a black screen afterwards. I've tried going into recovery, but it automatically asks me to update to the new radio. The only way I can access other features in recovery is to remove the SD card. Is there any way I can fix this?
1. Remove sd card from phone
2. Put sd card in computer sd card reader
3. Erase PG05IMG.zip from sd card
4. Put sd card back in phone
5. Turn on phone

You could also put the sd card in a friends phone and then use a usb cable to access it like a flash drive and erase the file... That's happened to me on a few occasions now.
Thank you, I'll try those out.
Yup, it works. My tb works again. Thanks again.
I used ODIN to get CWM on the phone, and when i boot into CWM i tried to install the root .zip file but it always says it can not mount SD card. any suggestions on how to resolve? No issues with the SD card when trying to access it from within the OS or through windows when connected to the pc.
you can try to reformat it via a pc, but your best bet is to replace it with a class 6 or higher unit.
I will give that a try when I get home. Thanks
I had an issue awhile back where I couldn't mount the SD in recovery unless I booted from power off (not reboot).
I ended up using my sd card from my droid x2. It worked fine with that one. Thanks for the suggestion. Once I got root I just put my original card back in since it works fine from within the os.
I am a complete newbie to rooting. I followed the kingoroot guidelines and rooted my Idea Aurus 3 phone. Root was success. The next step I did was downloading custom recovery and cyanogenmod ROM from here to my memory card
I flashed the custom recovery with flashify. The next step I did was wiping all data from the device by entering in to recovery mode (including cache and everything)
I was hoping I could simply install zip from sd card. But when i click on this option, I cannot find my sd card nor zip file (I checked most folders including emmc, etc, sd-ext and couldn't find SD card. The custom recovery name is Phylz touch 6
Now basically I have a phone without OS and all I can do is accessing custom recovery. I don't have a back up too
I can also see an error log "Cannot mount custom path"
I formatted the memory card to exFAT from FAT 32 hoping that would work, it didn't help as well.
Also tried to connect phone to pc using USB (thinking I can move rom to system memory), but wouldn't detect phone memory
Now, is there any way to get this fixed? Any help would be awesome
Thanks!!!
Mount USB option is how you see phone from computer if I remember correctly I haven't used cwm in awhile I always use twrp

download ur rom again.
put it on another sd card and flash the rom from sd.
or there's always a way to flash stock
If u were on philz 6, u cud just hit 'clean
to install a new rom ' and flash ur rom without wiping extra anything.

Do you mean external sd card or internal SD card if you have a external sd card pop it out of your phone and use an SD card adapter on a pc and place the ROM and appropriate gapps on it

I mean external sd card. The ROM is in external sd card, but i cannot see it in recovery mode.
Also, I just tried to sideload rom by using sdk tools.
The result i got was:
C:\Program Files (x86)\platform-tools>adb sideload cm-12-20150320-OFICIAL-5020.z
ip
loading: 'cm-12-20150320-OFICIAL-5020.zip'

Remove sd card and reinsert it while in cwm and in twrp you mount partitions do the equivalent for cwm for your SD card and make sure your SD card is not corrupted

Resolved!! Yay!!
Finally, all fixed.
Let me explain what I did:
I was not able to see zip or sd card in recovery mode. So I pushed the zip file to data/media/0 and installed zip by browsing to that path.
I was not able to flash Cynogenmod, because during the process the reboot was in to my old logo, So I assume it was failure. Then I downloaded a stock rom of my phone model and pushed it to the same location and installed it.
Now, is working fine so far.
Thanks everyone!

I have to remove battery to insert card, so I cannot do that while in recovery mode. However I was able to push the zip to system memory with adb (sdk tools). Cynogen mod didnt work for me, so I used a stock one again
I will still search for a new version as this one is JB 4.1
Well glad you got it fixed
