Hey...I hope this is the right section to post this in but..
I have a rooted viewsonic G tablet Bootloader 1.2 and I have CWM on it...well I flashed GTabCombOver (latest version) and i was getting frustrated because everything I would download would go onto the INTERNAL memory not to my micro SD card so I went into settings and erased all the content on the internal SD card and rebboted my Gtablet but now it wont go past the android part...it goes past the birds but then restarts...idk what to do please help i can boot into recovery but dont know what to do
So you are saying that you erased the Internal memory, meaning you erased your rom? If that is the case, and you can boot into CWM, select the 'mounts and storage' option from the main menu. Plug in the usb cable to your PC where you have a copy of the ROM. Then in CWM select 'mount USB storage'. That will mount the internal sdcard to your PC, where you can copy it over. When finished copying, unmount from PC, then unmount in CWM and press back. Then you can proceed to reinstall the rom like before.
If you just erased the /sdcard directory you could try wipe data/factory reset first and see if that will work.

I tried to root my phone. I got the Superuser on. I got clockwork recovery on. Then I tried to install a Rom. The rom said it had an error with the status bar. What I read on some of the forums said wipe and reinstall. I figured well if the the wipe is good. I'll just delete the partations. So I've deleted the partations and re-formated the partions. I can get into the recovery console but it doesn't see the SD card so I can't load the rom. When it boots normally it just comes up to a galaxy screen and hangs. Obviously because the file system is gone.
It's a Galaxy S 2 by sprint. What can I do?
Format your SD card with your PC, place some roms on it, re-insert it in your device, do a full wipe of data and cache, then flash a different rom of your choice.
sd card
So I have copied roms to my sd card but it says there is no files on the SD card. I have go into clockwork and turn on the USB storage and copied the rom there as well. But still no joy.

Make sure the files are in "zip" format (.zip after the filename).
Hey guys, today i was messing around with my nook tablet and i tried to restore it and i acidently deleted everything. now when ever i boot its goes straight to CWM recovery. ive tried to flash recovery and stock reboot and nothing worked. Is there anyway to restore it using usb or anything else? thanks.
I ran into similar difficulty with this earlier today. What worked for me eventually was using
the CMW Windows installer on my SD card, which nerfed it down from 32GB to 2GB,
formatted that 2GB partition,
put the "acclaim_update.zip" folder in the root,
inserted the sd card,
plugged the tablet into the charger,
power+n cycled once, then regular boot and it went it.
Your results may vary, though. It took a few tries before I finally got it to boot from SD
How exactly do i do that?
Fix for the Cyanoboot CWM bootlooping...
It could help someone, haven't seen this simple fix around so i decided to post it up here.
1. boot into CWM from sdcard, see here to download the sdcard version , instructions to burn the image to your sdcard are there too.
2. once you have finished burning the image into your sdcard you will see the size of your sdcard will be reduced to less than 50 MB, CLICK on your sdcard and you will see some files in there.
3. Download 8gb-16gb_cwm_internal.zip from my thread and copy-paste it to your sdcard so you can flash CWM internal using CWM sdcard version. HOPE YOU DONT GET CONFUSED.
4. Safely eject your sdcard from PC, power off your nook(long press power button), put the sdcard back into your nook, power on your nook.
5. It will boot into CWM sdcard then flash 8gb-16gb_cwm_internal.zip, reflash the ROM of your like (It should be on Internal sdcard, you can also swap to another sdcard containing the ROM while in CWM sdcard or resize CWM sdcard [50mb] with a partition tool software so you can copy a ROM to it).
6. Remove the sdcard from your Nook and select reboot system now from CWM
Done!
Your Nook tablet should now boot normally!!!
NOTE: the 8gb-16gb_cwm_internal.zip made by @succulent has few options missing so consider to install another internal CWM later. This process will just make you fix the bootlooping process and boot your device normally.

Flash "acclaim_update.zip"
I recently made a thread on how to flash "acclaim_update.zip" in CWM so head on over to it and see if it works for you and remember do a factory reset from CWM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762024
Hi, I was installing a ROM and I formated /system and rebooted but the ROM didn't work it repeatedly said process android sopped or something like that, so I rebooted to CWM recovery and was going to restore from my external SD card but there wasn't an option for that there was an option to restore from internal SD card but it said no files found so now i'm in cwm recovery and when I try to reboot the samsung logo appears and disapears constantly and nothing happens. The CWM recovery version is 6.0.4.4. I have the restore file on my PC. Is there any way I can send it to internal SD card? I can't access it even on my computer because the phone isn't fully booted. Please help me

Seems like a corrupted backup. Did you install the proper drivers for your phone? I would suggest you to reflash neatrom( if you already have the zip file in your internal sd card). If your pc can't detect your phone, how are you supposed to put any files into your phone?
there is the last kies & drivers in my laptop and it can recognize my brother's galaxy s4
also the last flash zip file was from long time and i delete it
my pc can't detect my phone but before format i put aosp neatrom to ext-card by wireless by es explorer !
i don't know why not recognize and why corrupted backup in same time ><

Ii had a version of neatrom on my device i forgot wich. But i think the ex-card has some errors couse i could mount exsdcard. I had the same problem with restore don.t know why. I suggest you take microsd card to pc and formaat fat32 before you recover your data. Put also o new recovery and a desire rom zip. And try again . if is not working try with other microsd card.
Okay. Here's the thing. Let me try to break the story down:
I tried to flash the MIUI ROM. So basically, I followed the instructions to the best of my ability, but when it was time to flash the ROM itself, I got a Status 7, and installation aborted. When I rebooted, the screen was stuck on the Mi logo (which was peculiar since the installation aborted). It was taking a long time, so I assumed that, yep, bootloop.
So what I did was I flashed stock ROM using odin. Just the stock rom (ie, you have to repartition before flashing the miui rom). But one think I noticed before I flashed the ROM, was after I repartition through ODIN, the USB storage was 0.00b/0.00b. Several bootloops after, I finally got my phone working, but this time I can't access my USB storage. When I go to the task manager, it says 0.00b/0.00b. When I plug it in my PC, the only drive I see is the SD card (when there should be two, right?). PLUS, when I boot the phone and go to the media files (example, music app, gallery app etc.) it says I have no SD card inserted. When I do.
On screen, the notification says the USB storage is something, like unsupported and when I tap it, it says I have to format my USB storage. When I do tap format, it says that it's still checking the USB storage, and the notification comes up again. If it's imporatant, I also tried formatting the USB storage via CWM, but it says cannot mount /emmc. I ALSO can't find my phone on my PC now. The GT-I900 doesn't come up in my drives when I plg it in
I've tried flashing the stock PIT file, but to no avail. Please help. I just want a faster phone (hopefully via MIUI) or
Oh, and please bear with me. I'm a complete noob.
After re-partitioning, you need to wipe the partitions (/system /data (sdcard0). Make Backups and don't forget to flash a Rom/Kernel after wiping /system, because else your recovery will be lost.
I'll try to help you since I did installing MIUI v6 ROM by @blackra1n which also require resizing system partition.

Status 7 could be possible you were using older custom recovery when installing the ROM.

So, you were repartition using PIT file then install MIUI— failed, then now go back to STOCK ROM (stock firmware?), right?
Did you do repartitioning again to stock PIT version before do flashing the stock ROM?

Please don't do something careless with /emmc as it might risking your EFS which may loosing your phone info such as IMEI, WIFI, and other radio related data. Please try to repeat the procedure back to flashing stock ROM:
1) Turn on your phone and boot to download mode (home+volume down+power). Connect your phone to PC through USB cable. Run Odin on your PC.
2) Press PIT button and select the stock PIT. Make sure the "repartition" checkbox is ticked on Odin.
3) Press PDA or AP and select your suitable recovery tar file. CWM or Philz recovery should be fine but avoid using the very older ones. Make sure the "reboot" checkbox is UNCHECKED because we don't want the phone reboot to system when flashing is done.
4) Press start button on Odin. Wait for awhile, then if Odin said it's all done, disconnect USB cable and reboot your phone to recovery mode (home+volume up+power). Optional but recommended, keep pressing until first Samsung logo appear, then release power button. Release two remaining buttons if recovery screen appear.
5) Assuming you're using CWM, go to "mount and storage" then choose "format /sdcard0" or "format /internal-sdcard". If prompted for file system format, choose "FAT32" if possible. If not in the list, just select "default".
6) Optional, to make sure the internal storage can be recognized by PC (Windows), still in CWM go to "mount and storage" then select "mount mass storage". Connect your phone to PC and see if Windows recognize your sdcard. If so, open properties dialog for this sdcard and check if it is formatted as FAT or FAT32. If not, right click on sdcard and choose "format". Quick format should be fine, leave all settings to its default.
7) Now, before installing the stock ROM, make sure to format phone's partitions. From CWM, select "mount and storage" then choose "format /data", "format /cache", and "format /system". Next, you may install the stock ROM or else.
It adviced to remove your external sdcard prior perform the steps above to avoid confusion and prevent your external sdcard reformatted accidentally. Also, I hope you were making backups for /efs partition.
Have a try, and good luck as you may need it! [emoji1]
