Mount, unmount system - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I wanted to ask if mounting and unmounting system from CWM is safe. For example if I mount/unmount system and flash something and mount/unmount it back is it still safe and everything is fine?
Thanks.

It writes to system anyway, you can't have working phone without writing on system partition

mounting and anmounting will not effect working of your phone...
when you reboot, all the partition will be automatically mounted.

I mean, it is not recommended by me, the zip provider, sorry my english was not clear...
so I rewrite it like this:
"sometime it is seen some devs recomending to mout system before flashing their provided zip"
I can provide proof if you want...
I have done this once as instructed by the zip provider without any issue..

i have no issues with it bro if the developer says than its ok, but as i said iv never had any issues.............

..........................deleted as currected conversation

corrected

I'm thinking of flashing a zip, but the developer hasn't said anything about it and the normal flashing doesn't work (gives status 0 error) and I thought maybe this way is possible but I was unsure

Recently I've seen few with old version 4 of cwm, if you have same, get version 5, download the cwm compatible ROM again.

Kies won't work with custom Rom......in fact forget kies ever existed, it is widely recognized as an unreliable POS!
Put the Update ZIP onto your SDCARD and try the install and also check the size of the zip file
I had a similar issue, my download didn't throw an error in CWM, but when I flashed it and rebooted I was greeted with constant force closes (so much, so quickly that I couldn't finish pressing ok). Went back into CWM and did a complete wipe and flashed again. No boot. I only got my s3 on Saturday so I was scared sh**less. After a quick trip to the bathroom to calm down I figured out the zip was corrupt and restored to a CWM backup then restored a TiBp. Flashed WanamLite with the theme linked in the OP instead. I wasn't really emotionally stable enough to try flashing criskelo again...
On another note, I always check MD5's but I couldn't find any for v6.0.1 of criskelo's ROM? Can anyone point me in the right direction? I just wanna confirm that the zips were corrupt..

Use Google for your contacts in future! Then they are safe in the cloud! Only way I know is flash back to stock
flash back to stock, restore contacts using kies to your phone then either backup to google a/c or memory card
i chose the memory card option as restoring from google always gives me duplicate contacts. its the only way i think
Guess I will have to go back to the old rom and flash again. Thanks everyone for the tips.
I`ve been lazy to look into cloud stuff for like a year now =P... really stressing year... guess I can`t run from it now lolz.

Well if you entered CWM recovery, wiped caches, did a factory reset, then flashed BS6, and you are not getting the rom to boot, the file is corrupted. It happens from time to time.

Either your recovery is broken or you are missing a step/detail. How did you install CWM? Did you use Odin and flash a kernel or did you use Rom Manager app? Because the app doesn't work.

I used odin to flash. I had superuser I guess that means my device is rooted. then I downloaded the bsROM and other cooked ROM. I copied the bsROM zip to my sd card, CWM to recovery then wiped out all the data as instructed, then installed the ROM, everything went fine to this part then it couldnot open then aborted. tried 3,4 times with different rom: same results, aborted.

[Solved] Sticky situation!

Hi,
Without really giving it a second thought I went and encrypted my device. I didn't think I'd be stuck with this rom and/or that CWM would become worthless.
I made plans on selling this one to buy SGS4 instead, when it hits the market and I wanted to do an as proper sale ad possible.
I need help decrypting the device and if possible unroot it and installing the original TouchWiz. I'd be saticfied with a rooted device, as well, only with the original "rom".
Any help is appreciated!
AW: Sticky situation!
Hi.
I guess download mode still works.
Do shouldn't it be sufficient to flash a stock rom there?
I never did this but my guess is it will work.
Regards.

Can someone back this info up?
Also, where can I download the rom? samsung.com?
Re: Sticky situation!
Hey
He is right..
You can download it from sammobile.com/firmwares or you can google it..prefer the firmware for where you stay..
That ways you'll remove the root and also factory reset your phone..

If you can reach download mode (shutdown phone then power + home + volume down) it should be fine.
Just ensure you're flashing the correct ROM.
Like tchindalia suggested. Find your Rom here.

PS: To leave download mode hold the power button for quite some time.
Which one should I pick? I mean there are none from EU, or it me just being blind?

Make sure you select the GT-I9300 and not GT-I9300T
Oh right.. And now it's narrowed down to two alternatives! Does it matter which one of the Swedish ones I choose? VDS or HTS?
AW: Sticky situation!
In general it doesn't matter.
It's just a question of Bloatware.
Think about the CSC as android+carrier-ware.
If you have a backup of your esf partition there is a small file with your device csc.

Help here please, badly needed
hi Everyone,
Im using S3 I9300 rooted with stock rom
I was going through this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1772234) where it showed how to swipe ur sd card as internal memory and vice virsa but required a kernel with int.l something which I dint have .
In order to follow the instructions I downloaded the file; MVLALH1_Insecure_kernel_CWM and flashed it on my phone. then I downloaded the file from the post (extsd2internalsd2_mattiadj_and_infx_6) and flashed it through CMW but my phone dint read my SD card as internal memory so I read more
EXTRACT FROM THE POST:
THE GUIDE
First of all make a nandroid backup!! I'm not responsable for any problem! You make this procedure at your risk!!!1. Format external sd card from your pc as fat32 or extfat
2. Copy attached zip in you external sd. Choose the right zip. If you have formatted your sd as fat32 choose _fat32 version, if the filesystem is extfat choose _extfat version
3. Go into recovery
4. Flash the zip
5. Reboot and....enjoy your memory increase!!!!
I'm on official jelly bean with kernel with init.d support but the mod seems not working or my kernel/rom does not support init.d
1. Flash the mod
2.Install script manager from play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...51bGwsMSwyLDNd
3.Open script manager, click on browse as root then ok
4.Choose the file name 11extsd2internalsd located in /system/etc/init.d and click on Script/Executable
5.Now tap on Su, Boot and Save
6.Reboot your phone and enjoy!
[/COLOR]
So I went on the second paragraph of instructions and downloaded the script manager and went to the 11extsd2internalsd file. I was told to select the option script/executable but couldn't find any option having both so selected executable and then selected SU and BOOT and then restarted my phone
Now Im not sure when it happened but my S3 is not detecting my sim card thou my sim is working perfectly and I have no clue how to fix it
please can anyone help me I tried to explain as best I could but still please ask if u want to know more cuz right now my s3 is without sim card

Did what you guys suggested yesterday but what you said wasn't entirely true. Flashing the stock firmware from download mode worked fine, but it actually just put me in an even more sticky situation.
My current situation: device still rooted and still encrypted, only difference is that it won't acceptt my old encryption password. In other words; I can't use the phone at all.
Any ideas to this problem? Is it possible to clear the internal memory and start from scratch perhaps?
Cheers.

[Q] Install a custom recovery without PC and root

Hello everyone,
I tryed multiple time to flash my phone (original ROM) with Odin and other software. Every time the connection cannot be established. I have tried with different computers and different cables, including the original one. I came to the conclusion that Micro USB connector in my phone is broken. I can still recharge but data transfer is not possible.
I have an SD card where i can put a ROM in order to update my phone. But if i'm correct that isn't possible if I don't have ClockworkMod Recovery.
So finaly my question: Is it possible to root install a custom recovery without a cable and without root?
So in oder words: If it's not rooted and i have the Stocked recovery I can't do anything without the usb connector.
Version out of the box:
Device: GT-I9300

You need to look for a custom recovery that can be flashed using the update.zip facility in stock. I'm not aware of one but happy searching.

Then you have to flash a "CF-root.tar" file with odin. Then your stock kernel will be rooted, su will be installed and also a custom recovery.
In most cases it will be CWM..... ..... Happy Flashing :angel:

But there could or is the possibility to root phones with an "odin root apk" .But i think one should not do it in this way
cause you could break your device....The download mode with an odin program and an USB connection to your phone
is the only way.

Need help with unrooting nexus 7 2013 (wifi)

So I tried hitting mount and then selecting that stuff: It wouldn't check it.

Thanks for the reply, but this doesn't work. I clicked fix permissions, and the log said it couldn't mount data. It said it completed successfully and wanted me to reboot. So I did. I then tried to install the zip (cyanogen), but it couldn't see any files still.
I recommend flashing recovery again via fastboot and then trying to flash cm again ☺

At this point would you still like to install Cyanogenmod or would you like to unroot your device like the thread title states? Let me know and I will try and help you out !

Oh, whoops. It seems that I can't change the title, but I had already figured out how to unroot. The problem is installing cyanogen mod now.

I tried repairing everything one at a time, each time it said failed.
"E: Unable to repair '/system'
E: Error repairing file system"
I even tried all of them at once, it said invalid partition selected.

Take a look at this guide from the official CM Wiki, you can use TWRP instead of Clockworkmod to accomplish the procedure.

I uploaded a video showing what is happening when I try to install cyanogen:
It's really strange.

You can try connect your phone and PC, use TWRP to mount the partitions, then repair file system using Windows.(If the file system is broken, Windows will notify you to scan and fix it)
If this also can't solve the problem, you'll have to flash stock RUU (ROM Update Utility) again.

At this point a would recommend flashing the stock factory image for your Nexus 7 2013, you would not use an RUU as mentioned above as that is meant for HTC devices only. If you need a guide I would recommend taking a look at this guide.
Thanks for your answer!

I made a mistake that every device has a stock RUU before(Always use HTC). Thank you for your correction
Maybe flash factory image is the best solution

I have been using WugFresh's root tool to flashing and unroot it. After that I rerooted it, and it would still come up with the unable to mount error.
I just rooted and flashed cyanogen mod on my nexus 5 in like 5 minutes. Why doesn't this work on my nexus 7? I've tried everything. I've looked at every relevant thread as to why I can't mount anything. Nothing is working.
