So I was trying to reset my prime in order to ship it to the person that bought it. I had AOKP which I forgot that at the time of the rom that was on was unable to access the sd in recovery.
I did a factory reset and installed a Rom which apparently is not loading correctly. The only thing in internal storage is the rom that isn't booting correctly.
What can I do in order to get a bootable rom onto the tablet? Is there a way to copy to internal storage without being booted into a rom (from recovery, or some other method).
I cannot add roms onto the sd because the sd is not recognized in recovery.
Someone please help me out here,
Thanks!
Ok I got the proper adb drivers installed so I can use adb from recovery, what is the proper command for me to be able to push a rom to the internal memory using adb?
Anybody please help!
Thanks
adb push [Insert directory of rom here] /mnt/sdcard/
good luck~

Hi I was on the last step of installing Cyanogen Nighly build 116 on my SGS2 and got to step 7 of the guide on their wiki
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide
but I couldnt find my external SD card on Clockwork mod recovery. I tried to reboot back to my normal samsung OS so I could use USB to put the 2 update zip files on my internal storage but the phone is now boot looping. I boot up to the samsung logo then the phone restarts.
What do I do please?
Hi again,
I have tried booting in download mode which does nothing but show me the android man withthe word Downloading... underneath (VolDown, Home, Power). I have tried booting back to Clockwork Mod recovery (VolUp, Home, Power) and I have tried messing around with adb to see if it sees any devices- which it does, it sees
304D19A75555E24E
but it doesnt accept adb push update.zip I guess because the phone is busy rebooting :S
My guess would be you've installed a different version of CWM recovery. Choose "Install zip from internal Sdcard" instead.

Hi
It says Clockwork Mod Recovery v4.0.1.4
It doesnt have an option other than install zip from sdcard
and it doesnt see the external sd card either.
I have
- reboot system now
- apply update from sdcard
- wipedata/factory reset
- wipe cache partitions
- install zip from sdcard
- backup and restore
- mounts and storage
- advanced
- power off
I chose install zip from sd card
then chose zip from sdcard
and I get the internal listing of files on the internal phone storage but no access to the external sd card. There is a folder there called, external_sd but when I select it, it just says No files found. It shows this when the sd card is inserted and uninserted though.
Do you know any way I can put the update files on the internal phone memory from my PC? I have adb installed and the android sdk. but adb wont push files to the phone. I used to know a way to boot the phone with fastboot but dont remember how to do that any more
You need to tell it where to save the file if you're going to do adb push, i.e. adb push update.zip /sdcard/cm7.zip, but you might need to mount somewhere to store it in mounts and storage first for it to work.

ah but I cant get it to boot so I cant get it to mount. The closest I can get is getting adb to recognise it as a device while it is bootlooping (it only gets up to the Samsung logo then reboots)
I did try "adb push update.zip /sdcard/cm7.zip"
failed to copy 'update.zip' to 'sdcard/cm7.zip' : Read-only file system
The phone is still rebooting over and over. Out of curiosity, would CWM not give the option to install zip from the external sd card if the phone didnt have root?
I bought this phone from a friend and he said the phone did have root but I actually am not sure if it does. Would that also cause me not to be able to use adb to push the file because the internal sd card was read only?
Either way - how do I get the phone back to a usable state please?
I mean from within CWM recovery, which you said you can access (ADB should work there after 30 seconds or so).

booted to CWM - waiting for pc to notice phone exists so I can use adb...
... nothing is happening. (tried using mount usb storage too)
EDIT1: I rebooted CWM and when it came back - tada - windows noticed it. Ran the ADB command and the copy has worked over 36s.
Watch this space...
EDIT2: Got the phone to finally let me upload update.zip (the 116 nightly build from cyanogen) and gapps (for cyanogen7) using the mount option under Clockwork Mod recovery
installed update.zip
installed gapps.zip
rebooted and...
stuck at
Samsung
GALAXY S II
GT-I9100
/!\
``
nothing is happening, the phone doesnt boot... but CWM has changed colour to a pretty blue and I am now on v5.0.2.7. What am I meant to do next? I ran out of steps on http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide
Flash the update twice in succession, if the first one was quick.

yes your right, it was quick. I flashed it again - much slower this time and it seems to be working - I finally got off the stuck screen. Currently watching the new cyanogen mod 7 boot screen.
Big thanksometer - if your anywhere near me i'd buy you a coffee.
I can boot into cwm recovery but can do nothing else. I think I need to flash a new rom but since mass storage isn't working and the phone won't read my sd card. I can't downliad a rom onto the phone.is there any way I can flash through fastboot?
Sent from my LG-P970 using XDA
If mass storage isn't working from within recovery and you don't have a bootable rom, I would just load therom unto the SD card using another device
adb can push files when you're in recovery mode. Check d.android.com to download the Android SDK, which includes adb.
Did you try to restore a backup while in CWM?
can i push through adb pusher? oh and can someone tell me the command to send it to the internal sd card. like for examle /mnt/sdcard
Do a full fastboot wipe
this is an automated script->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421261
Then reflash your recovery.img using fastboot
Hello, i've installed the twrp recovery from venom , also tryed the cwm recovery , and i can't mount the sd card to copy the rom on the sd. I mean , i have wiped everything.. what i need to do?
Up please i need the phone
are you stuck in splash screen? or, can you access to recovery? or you just can not flash anything because you deleted all your data (including the rom)?
if you can access to recovery, but you don't have any file to flash, you could try DROID EXPLORER, (I can not remember if i use droid explorer in fastboot or in recovery) in any case, you could use droid explorer to copy your rom to your phone to flash it...
It happened to me, because a skin of TWRP changes the buttons and then... I clear all my data XD

You can't mount sdcard in recovery (yet) because there is no real sdcard on this phone. The virtual sd card is just a folder called media on your data partition (/data/media). You will have to install TWRP and use adb sideload command to get the rom onto your phone. There's are two tutorials in the One X+ General forum with everything you need to know about unlocking/rooting/flashing on this phone. One of them also contains a section for ADB Sideload command, shouldn't be that hard to find.
But i recommend you to completely read both guides to avoid further problems.
And don't forget to press the Thanks button for the guys who made these tutorials!!!
Flash the latest recovery compatible with your device using fastboot command...
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Where "boot.img" is type where the location of the boot.img is.
So I tried installing ARHD 11 (from 9.2) and apparently it did some weird thing where the sdcard will now mount somewhere else. I could see my original sdcard from CWM recovery, but a different location when I view the sdcard from my computer.
In short, I have no ended up with no ROM (completely formatted) and nothing on my sdcard. I tried "mount sdcard" from "mount and storage", but it does not read on the computer (I've actually never been able to get this to work). Also tried using the toolkit, but it does not see the device. I just need some way to get files onto the sd card through recovery.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: fixed via adb push
Same here
I've been stuck with this problem for over a week now, spending hours searching. Nothing comes up,

wait so you had no ROM but had a custom recovery and could flash via adb? how so?
I'm stuck right now and could use this....

not quite, i had a recovery (CWM) but nothing in SD card and I needed to find a way to get a ROM in there so i could flash it. I pushed the file through adb and flashed it from CWM
I've attempted to flash a newer version of cyanogenmod on my phone (10.1.3 to 11). I'm using TWRP 2.6.1.0
I can not boot because I've wiped the phone (dalvik, system, data, internal storage, cache), and I suspect the ROM I have is corrupted but I can't connect it to my computer and transfer the file via USB because I have no ROM installed and can not boot. I also can't take the SD card (since there's non) and put the file that way.
My phone is Oppo find 5
My root file flashing was successful, but installation of the ROM cm-11-20140204-NIGHTLY has failed. I assume the file was corrupted, but I have no way to find out what it is.
I now realize my mistakes, like wiping the system unnecessarily.
Is there any way to get another file on the device? any other suggestions?
Also, I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I was not able to find the right place. I apologize in advance.
Eyal,

Check that thread, set up adb and push a ROM to the internal sd of your phone via adb. You can use adb in recovery mode (I could in CWM, dont know about your recovry) so if you can boot into recovery, you can push the rom. (There is info on the thread about adb pushing/pulling)

Cwm has an option to mount storage to PC in mounts & storage menu
Check if twrp has the option
You can mount it that way:good:
