What SD Card do you have and what class? Sorry I fell asleep but im back on. Also what GB Tablet do you have and what are you running? Can you still boot up and is there anywhere you can get to factory reset ( clear data ) cause thats whats looking like your problem. I had that problem on my HTC Hero CDMA I freaked and then I cleared data and rebooted back into recovery and error was gone

I did the exact same thing with rom manager on the NT. :< There should be big flashing warning signs that say "DONT DO THIS IF YOU'RE TIRED"
I wound up having to ADB to the device, completely wipe the partition table with gdisk, then rebuild it. However, the scripts to acutally format it werent avaliable anymore (Dropbox account was banned) so I then had to use the Ubuntu restore method to go from there.
I did loose the ability to run the B&N Factory ROM (wont pass registration anymore)
but at least the tablet is useable.
Dont give up, from what I understand, unless you physically BREAK the tablet in some way, its nearly always recoverable!

Personally. I wouldnt mess with Rom Manager. That's what bricked my tablet, too.
Just make an SD card with the CWM bootables (I posted a link in your other post about noob questions) and install roms/etc from there.
I think that's what's killing my gnex!
*This Jedi master be a Ninj-ESS*
hrm i missed it? (the other thead link to bootable cym)? i did try to repartition once on another bootable build but the cym did not like it... even after reinserting it
i had that problem before because i accidently formatted the 1gb user partition while in cm7...
this link saved me. try it out!

If I am correct you are still trying all of this from inside a bootable cm7 card, right?
Instead, try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25786947
With that hopefully you can get a bootable cwm recovery image.
From there you should be able to install CM7.
I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH. DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER.

I am trying to reinstall KaosFroyo on my HTC Eris via ClockworkMOD and I am getting a error that says
E:Can't symlink /system/xbin/arp
E:Failure at line 65:
I have tried multiple other roms and I formated my SD card and wiped everything. I am thinking I need to do something with adb or flashing another clockwork recovery?? I am not sure
I have included the ClockworkMOD recovery.log.
Any ideas??
Search is down or something. I had the same problem they told me that Clockwork and the eris dont get along. Long story short I tried many different things and eventually the phone just completely bricked. I would say check the checksum on the rom to make sure it doesn't have any errrors and let me try and find my post about it and see if we have the exact same issue or not
Edit: Looks like our issues are slightly different take a look through there maybe?

As a rule, Clockwork recovery is not recommended on the Eris. It causes many problems, and yours may be one of them. Amon recovery is much safer. You probably need to search about replacing Clockwork with Amon...I think there is actually a thread out here to tell you how that's done.

Could be just a bad download. MD5 the zip file on your sdcard.

May be a dumb question, but did you wipe data and dalvik before trying to flash a new rom?
You said you were using clockwork before (which I know very little about), but do you have any (amon ra created) nandroids that you could flash? Perhaps you created one when you first rooted.
If all else fails, try unrooting and rerooting your phone.

I would say the SD card may need to be mounted and formatted (or possibly unformatted) in recovery if the ROM you are trying to use requires it. That is, before you flash the new ROM. I would say though that you will lose data when you prep the SD card from recovery

OK, what ROM are you trying to Flash and what did you flash over? I am using KaosFroyov34...busybox is included. I think a previous poster is correct...I think you need to do a full wipe, a Dalvik wipe and them reinstall your ROM.

Well, first you need to know what you need to get rid of, then you need something like root explorer to mount R/W and delete the files. I'd be very careful about doing this, and someone more experienced than me will have to tell you how to do it better/faster. My guess as to why it's full though is flashing a different ROM over another (say Kaos over Tazz) without wiping. Because different ROMS use different install scripts, you wind up leaving leaving files that needed to be deleted. When you go from one version of a ROM to another of the same ROM, the scripts usually knows what to delete, replace, etc.

You need to flash Clockwork recovery 3.0.0.5 thats available in this forum. it will wipe your system properly. If it dont work( but it will) you have to go the fastboot way.

Fastboot..does this involve using adb?
How does it work?
while in 3.0.0.5 i try to whipe i get the following:

never mind that it wipes anyhow. Go to mounts and storage and format system,data,cache and then you go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache.

When i try to install the rom it will give the error within a second..like it is not even trying. I checked the sd-card and the update.zip is there.
It seems like recovery isnt even trying to open it.
Tried it with and without signature check. still no go!
ill give it one more try with the stock rom.... maybe i had a bad download.
nope..still no go.
when i verify signature...it says signature verification failed.

Yes something stinks thaats for sure. I had damaged memory on my folio but eeven theen it started the install. I would download again andrenaame the file from update zip to whatever.zip and insstall from sd card. Or else you will need a functioning Adb setup to use fastboot. Do you have that?
I have to ask the obvious, the downloaded file you have, did you extract it? Just sso you havent put it straight to sd-card. I have done that sometimes then remembered that FolioMod zip has to be extracted and there is the flashable zip.
i will setup adb tomorrow. have to go to work now though.
Thank you for you time and efford...
Is there a way to uninstall clockwork and use the standard recovery instead?

So here is my issue. Last week I formated my ROM, so for a while it was stuck in internal flashed CWM 5.5.0.4 Than I flashed some restore file which fixed that issue.
However I was dumb enough to exit the internal CWM before flashing any Andoird OS zip meaning it has no Os inside. Since restart it gave me B&N factory reset option. I did. Than it gets stuck just past account log in info. No surprise because there is nothing on the EMMC.
Now I was able to boot CWM from SD, but when I try to install any zip file it says Aborted. Also there is never enough room left on my SD after I image the CWM image file.
So here is my question one. How can I actually have enough space to copy the Stock OS zip and flash it.
Most importantly I did have internal CWM 5.5.0.4 inside. Now when I hit B&N reset I am assuming it got wiped. Is there a way to access that internal CWM if not.

You can resize the partition of the SD card (after you flash CWM on it) using a partition manager, that will give you full access to all of it, or format the SD card and put these files onto an SD card.
So I able to boot on sd card, but when I try to flash anything this is the message I get. So once again I am stuck at best on CWM because it's not letting me install anything.
That (status 0) error sometimes is solved by mounting /system manually.

Those two zip files will also do nothing. The former is the zip file to root, which will do nothing if you really have no stock os installed. The latter I'm not sure about but again I don't think its something that can be flashed without an OS already installed. Try flashing cm7 or another rom.
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
edit: now that I've looked at my files on my computer, the latter is not a flashable zip file for clockworkmod. Its the cwm image for burning to sd card.
You gotta do some reading man if you're going to be flashing stuff; don't just try to flash any zip file you see.
Did you try bypassing the registration screen?

Yes that's what I thought. Problem is after I write the Boot.rmg for SD CWM 5.5.0.4 there isn't enough space left to put the Os.zip on the SD. Tried a CWM SD I used to flash my Nook Color which does leave me enough room, but with that Nook Tablet just boots up normalls

DO NOT USE STUFF FROM OTHER DEVICES UNLESS IT IS STATED IT WILL WORK FOR YOUR DEVICE
Theres no harm here but going down that path is a very very bad idea. The devices are different.
So I finally managed to find the right SD CWM Boot that allows me to boot in CWM and leaves me enough room to put ROM zip and what not in the card after imaging.
So I tried flashing Nook Tablet stock os and here is the message I get.
E:Eoor in/sdcard/nookcolor_1_4_1_signed.zip
(Status 0)
Installation Abroted.
As a last resort I flashed CM9 which does finish the installation, but than when I restart it shows the black B&N screen saying device must reset and I am back to square one.
So now I am good with botting inside CWM. Just need help with successfully flashing the Nook Stock zip.
By the way me personally can't stand Nook Stock OS. I use a CM7 Mirage on my Nook Color. This is for a friend who I convinced to use Cyanogenmod on his Nook Tablet. He doesn't like CM, so I am trying to get him back to his stock os.

This is for a nook tablet yes? Why are you using a nook color zip file?
Tried Nook Tablet zip too with no success. The color one was just for trial.
Maybe I need just a plain all stock.zip customized for installation via CWM. Here is the message I get when I tried to flash the nook tablet update zip
Found links for Stock Nook Tablet zip, but none were downloadable.
E:Can't open /sdcard/nooktablet_1_4_2_update.zip
(bad)
Installation Aborted.
First of all is you friend's nook tablet 8GB or 16GB model?
Second you haven't read my FAQ, so you haven't read enough and you're confused in the way a custom rom and B&N stock update.zips are flashed.
A custom rom you can install from cwm > install .zip from sdcard or if it's a backup folder a.k.a recovery rom (as Albert call it) you can restore it from backup & restore option in cwm; but if it's a B&N stock update.zip you flash it "as is" in a different way, you have to format a sdcard with fat32 file system and set primary partition to "active" then you can flash the .zip from the sdcard. There is no need of cwm BUT there is need of stock original recovery as their update.zip requires their stock recovery to work.
Read my thread how-to restore internal partitions with 'dd' command for more information about flash stock/custom recovery and flash B&N stock update.zip for an out-of-the-box nook which means start from scratch: rooting, bla bla bla.
If you dont want to start from scratch then grab a custom stock rom from development section and flash it in cwm. Albert, cobrato and i have posted them.
Third this is not Q&A, wrong section to post. There is a sticky about it.

Hmmm ok , then something got corrupted , I think I have read about other user having this same problem but I don't recall for a resolution. You will have to try restoring the partitions referred to the boot process first as I'm not sure if it's the factory partition that got corrupted.
I'll post useful links for you to read to know how to proceed later

I can still get to the Recevery and Downloading mode but up till now I have tried flash many stock ROM, factory reset without hope. I believe that it's the software conflicting problem or problem with the bootloader
Please help me with this, my friend ask me to flash it to Cyanogen Mod 9 and I bricked his player. That's really bad for both of us. Before any thingies, it run on Froyo and on the back cover, it said YP-G70CW/ Made in CHina
Please help me with this soon ( any suggestion is appreciated
Hello my friend!I will say again:
ALWAYS WHATEVER IS HAPPENING,BEFORE FLASHING A NEW ROM YOU MUST BACKUP THE CURRENT SYSTEM FROM CWM!!!
If you have this,you may go to back-up and restore in CWM,restore and vouala you have again your current rom.
If you have not made a system Back-Up (also Nandroid backup) you will have to download a new rom,send it to your device in downloading mode and then install this.
I can suggest you the ROM CM9 that I use because its just awesome.Just a little prob with the preloaded microSD card.
What device do you have?INTL or USA?
Actually, I'm having the .zip file of CM9 from this topic as well : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679957
However, even though I can connect my phone to the computer, use ODIN to root it and flash the .zip file after factory reset, etc. , the situation is still the same :-< It stay stuck at the samsung logo like forever
I believe I'm using an Intl one because it has hot physical home button. However, the back cover read: YP-G70CW Made in China. Therefore, I don't know which ROM should I flash??
do you follow ALL the instructions from this thread?

I did. I did the factory reset and deleted cache, etc. before installing the .zip file. :-<
did you do this in CMR:
Wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache
?
To wipe dalvic cache go to advanced section in CWM

yes, i meant CWM, mistyped it..
I did them all too. However, for the Dalivik cache, it does not show up text at all, just a little flash nothing changes. What seems to be wrong here is that every time I finish an action, it show up 4 line of errors like: can't mount to cache/..../recovery.log. Is that the problem??
Yes thats the problem.You may have locked the internal SD...Try formatting you external SD and then pass your zip again,this may fix the problem
If system can't mount it's files,there is no way it will load.
I took the external SD card out, formatted it and flashed the CM9 again. No luck
The four lines of error read like below, they keep appearing every time I do something:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

Those errors are common within using CWM for the Galaxy Player 5. If you rebooted the device, it will most likely go away. There is no need for concern.
Hello.
My s3 recently stopped working and it ill only go up to the samsung logo and stay there. (this issue happened right after the battery was completley drained using the led...)
I've tried countless times to reinstall the rom i had, update it to a newer version of the same rom and even go back to an old version i still had on my SD card. I used the Archidroid 2.5.2 at the time and with the setting f2fs (and agni kernel if im not mistaken)
since then, i tried to change the file format back to ext4, ofcourse with full wipes, and change any other possible configuration on the setup of the rom. After all of these tries failed, i assumed i could just go and use Odin to install some stock firmware (following some advices i found here on the forums), and everything seemed to worked perfectly. Odin recognizes the phone, and it finishes the flashing with a big green happy PASS!. However, the phone still sits there at the samsung logo and just chills...
Tried to flash different stock ROMs and even tried to flash the rescue firmware from this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6) which again, seemed to work, but stayed in the samsung logo.
i kinda lost hope, although it seems the phone still can be saved (can access recovery and odin)...
i'd really appreciate the help!
also, i am kinda noobie in this and might need simpler words to understand.
Thanks alot!

Do you have an efs backup? (AGNi makes them when you flash it but since you formatted /data/media multiple times I assume they are gone).

i have no idea how to check whether or not i have...
Go read the efs sticky thread in general forum, your phone will not boot without it being restored.

yes, i suppose... i dont really remember what exactly happend with the phone, through all stages of its life, but the name sure rings a bell (from before this horrible incident).
do you think it is possible to do something with the SD card?
about the efs sticky, looking for it, but so far not finding it... (might be to dumb for this )

Do you have any way to mount the external SD? (E.g. an adapter, or by flashing a custom recovery and mounting it that way). It's possible that you have an efs backup on it.

Well, im not exactly 100% sure what do you mean by mounting... but if i go to the recovery i have, cwm if im not mistaken, i can go to mount and storage and then press mount external_sd and it seems to work (changes to unmount and doesnt say any error occured).
also, i can connect the card itself to my pc using a micro sd to mini sd adaptor...
is it of any help?

Yes, by mount I mean get it to display its contents on your computer. Is there anything with efs in its name on the card?

Not practically. The efs folder is kind of like the social security number of your phone so every folder is unique.

Hmm, so it didn't boot even when it was 100% stock? You said that you got those error messages in stock recovery but then a few minutes later you said that you had CWM. If so, then you might need to. I found some guides but I can't really vouch for them since I've never had to restore /efs like that, so following them would be at your own risk.

Thanks alot for your time and help, ill look into those guides and see what can be done.
about the recovery... while we were chatting here i was trying a lil guide about that efs issue (didnt know there was an issue with it till you pointed it out, so never looked for it). on that guide i found, it said to install custom recovery, so i installed one i had already on my computer...
about the guides you found, im on it already trying to install that adb stuff and see if something works
anyway, THANKS for your time! although it is still stuck, you helped me alot!!

Ok cool, np. Good luck! Hopefully you can fix it.
Is it possible that it is the gs3 sudden death syndrome? My Samsung galaxy s3 had that during june
