Is there a way to copy files from the internal memory to PC if you are in download mode or recovery? And how?
Thank you!
Yes.
1. You can use ADB commands to pull/push from recovery mode
or simple way with GUI
2. Use PC program : "Android Commander", works a treat
Edit: *Ensure USB debugging is enabled first in settings, then boot into recovery*

I formatted everything and if I boot it stays in boot loop and I can't access USB debugging to push my zip file so that I can flash it. What can I do? I'm using I9300 International Tool Kit for ADB.
[Edited]:
Never mind, I used the same Tool Kit but instead of pushing it to /sdcard/ (I learned that /sdcard/ is nothing more than a symlink to /data/media) I pushed it to /data/media/ and without USB debugging I managed to get the files to show up.

Is it the defaut recovery or CWM
Because it is CWM you can use en micro SDHC card en put the new software files on the card and flash the new software.
It was CWM and I don't have a microSD to SD reader to reformat the 2GB microSD card that I have so I use the internal SD which leads me to use a Tool Kit or ADB to push files after a complete format of everything.

After flashing some roms,my phone now can only access to internal and external sd from pc. Although, I can put files in sd, I can't see nor access to those files in my phones. I did some research and found out that the command in sdk could help me: "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"
This is where I got stuck. I could access to adb and when I commanded adb devices I can see my devices attached. However when I typed fastboot devices, nothing shows up, and when I typed "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0", I got stuck in "waiting for devices" message.
I don't know what was going on, since adb command is still working fine. I would really appreciate any help here.
P.S. I don't know if this is matter, but I run on xp window.
I think fastboot is only for HTC devices. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

haha. yeah, fastboot = htc.
I saw the title for this thread and had to do a double take that I was in the Vibrant section. This was almost news to me.
I saw both fastboot and adb exe file in android sdk. I thought they would work for all android phones.
If it wasnt, do you know any ways for me to reactivate sd card or to access sd card through my phone? Rite now i cant see any pictures or songs, which i put in my internal n external sd though pc.
have you tried simply mounting/unmounting... maybe copy everything to the pc, format it and then reboot?
settings > sd / phone storage.
I tried mounting,unmounting, format it from both phone setting and on pc. I still found no luck
edit: i even flash back to stock rom and do factory reset. Still no luck. Is there any other ways that i can try.

First of all, what rom are you running? And secondly, if you're trying to access your sdcards from recovery, you really only have access to the internal one, nut not as USB mass storage.
If you're trying to access the sdcard from your computer as USB mass storage, make sure you have debugging enabled, and then using the notification menu, tell it to mount the sdcard.

Hi guys!
is it possible to put files to internal storage when in bootloader/fastboot mode?
My post is probably very very similar to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542980, but I'm not sure if it will be the same as Xperia S.
I was about to flash custom ROM, but then I forgot to transfer ftf file into SD card, and recovery mount SD card option is broken, and I'm stuck in Sony boot loop.
Suggestions?
i thought xperia s doesn't have sd card, it's just built in 32gb memory.
i'm totally new to this phone, so don't quote me...
but maybe if the file needs to be on the internal storage there might be adb/fastboot commands where you can push the file in bootloader mode?
That's what I meant. Internal storage,
Do you know what commands used to push it?
I have the same prob XPS.. pls help me out guys...
Solved, I flashed DoomKernel instead of recovery-nozomi.
recovery-nozomi, I got stuck in Sony Bootloop.
i don't really know, i'm totally new to this phone.
on my old htc wildfire s you cold use hboot via usb and use adb from a windows command prompt
it was something like for example
adb push filename.ext /data/filename.etc
but again, i don't know if this is the correct method for this phone, or where you'd need to "push" the fiile, to /system? to /data? or some other location?
does it even need to be on the phone? or isn't there some tool that you can flash the update from your pc?
OK the system folder was deleted on the Impression 10. It boots but gets hung on the "Impression" logo. I hook it up to the computer, the computer recognzes it but I cannot access the files on both the SD Card nor the internal memory. Android Commander and ADB cannot access it. I have the stock system image file from leader, I also backed-up my system folder. Any ideas on how I can push the files from the computer to the tablet or is it too far gone?

Can you acess cwm?
If not, I'm sure, your device has a download mode, then you can enter the mode, conndct to a computer and flash the whole firmware again via a flashtool or anything else.

I have a just installed CMW recovery v6.0.2.7.
I have no uSD card at the moment and would like to install a ROM.
There's no "activate USB storage" menu item in the recovery as seen in other places.
Is there a way to push a ZIP file into the internal storage through the USB cable?
TIA.
use adb from PC

Could you please give me some more details?
I've only used fastboot so far (with HTC devices). Thanks.

should work from recovery
I may have messed up the flash steps when I was trying to flash SuperNexus from Froyo? So I did the following first:
Make a Nandroid backup
Then I put those two files on the phone with the following adb commands:
adb push SuperNexus-2.0-vibrantmtd-BUILD4-update2.zip /sdcard/
adb push gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip /sdcard/
After that I did
Do a Wipe/Factory Reset
Now I'm lost at the following step:
Flash SuperNexus ROM
On the CWM recovery interface, now when I select
install zip from sdcard
and then
choose zip from sdcard
I can't find the sdcard directory from the long list of directories such as Android, DCIM, data, external_sd, voodo, etc.! Where is sdcard?
Is it because the Nandroid backup didn't back up those two files (SuperNexus and gapps) because I did them backwards?
Now the screen only shows an open trash can with the Android logo, and it does not response? Is the phone bricked??? What can I do now?
Someone, please help!
When you click choose zip from sd card that takes you to your sd card and every folder contained in it. I usually just download ROMS with my phone and it puts them in the download folder. So when I "choose zip from sd card", then everything is in the folder "download". Next time either download with your phone or connect to your pc and put the files in a folder you will remember, example : sdcard/download. If you have pushed with adb then it might not be in a folder at all, I'm really not familiar with adb, maybe they were put in a folder named adb? I'm not familiar with the screen you speak of either, but it sounds like you have soft bricked your phone. Go back to stock with this guide http://rootzwiki.com/topic/605-guid...nja-apps-everything/page__p__11106#entry11106 if you are indeed soft bricked.

Just plug in you usb select mass storage and copy it in the main memory(where Android, DCIM, data, external_sd, voodo exist ) not in the External memory.... the other procedure rather than adb pushing was correct... this will be fine.:good:. try again and let us know if you passed well..... for being more sure put out your mini sd card from phone.....

Thank both of you for the kind suggestions!
It was quite scary for me since this was the first time I encountered such a scenario. After the soft brick, I managed to boot the phone into download mode many times, but the computer would not be able to detect the phone! Then accidentally I booted it into recovery mode, and the computer somehow recognized it. So I decided to just push the .zip files again with adb, After that everything went smoothly.
Now I'm fully enjoying JB!
glad you figured it out somehow... get used to it it will become easy to you when you do this again and again cause this phone can't be brick-able.. :highfive:
