Hi, how can I access the internal memory so that I can copy the ROM, my y5 is stuck on the boot logo now.. the recovery mode cant detect the sd card. is there anyway around to access this internal memory so that I can copy the ROM. Thanks
I dont know but anyway if youre in recovery u need the external sd card to install a rom
What happens if u put ur sd in
Have u tried different sd cards
I had the ROM copied to my sd card, my problem is whenever i goto recovery mode all I see is the internal SD card..
aaaah ok =)
u have internal system storage + internal flash drive like the sgs+ has
okeeeey and now u want to put the rom on ur internal sd storage or u want ur phone to detect the external sd card
so put in your sd card boot into recovery chose install update or zip or whatever from sd
now youre on your internal sd storage u can scroll down and in the list there has to be a folder called external sd that should be your external sd and there you should find your update
i have never tried this befoure
so let me know if it worked
i wish to have both, but what i need now is to have my rom copied to the internal storage.. when I choose Update from sdcard.. all I see is the internal SD card.. no folders or anything.. I have attached some pictures here.. I really need some help... is there anyway or program where I can access the internal storage using my computer? Im stil stuck on the apple logo/. Thanks
ok ok my fault i understood u in a wrong way...
you mean u want to put it on the internal phone storage not on the internal sd storage..okey...
hmmm i dont think soo might be but i dont know...
isnt there any option in the recovery mode to format or mount the internal sd storage because on it you should find the folder for the external sd storage and on this u could put a rom or something to install
if this doesnt works try to flash a rom via odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706918
thanks for all the info.. some few question. what if my rom is in zip file? im readint the thread about odin.. its in tar file..
ZIP files are for the recovery mode likes roms
the .tar.md5 is needed to be used with odin
If youre searching a stock rom check out it is tar
therefore im out of luck? I only got the .zip file or ROM.. i dont have a tar file for my goophone

Friends, i need your help !
My Goophone Y5 does not make calls.
When I try to make a call, the appliance crashes and just unplugging the battery it turns on again.
Already swapped some sim cards without success.
I need original ROM to attempt a recovery.

Help me, please!

Hey Trind,
In your post, you stated that you were following instructions on how to install this file....
Do you remember the website you were at?
I am having same problem.... Sort of...
i have a 16GB sd card that is completely useless. Because everything i download, install, or save gets put on the internal memory. Now, internal is full and sd card is all but empty...
Thanks for any info you can give me...
Hi SGP users!
Last night, I installed the Jellybean CM10 ROM (the Nightly one). I also installed the GApps that came with the post. So I booted to Recovery Mode, I tried installing the ROM (Install zip from sd card>Install zip from internal sd card>downloads>the jb rom), but it says "INSTALLATION ABORTED". I repeated to install but to no avail. I rebooted the system to research on this, and the user said that you have to format system and try again. I booted to Recovery Mode again, formatted the system (it says system formatted or something like that), and installed the ROM for the nth time. It still says INSTALLATION ABORTED. Now, I tried installing the GApps zip file, and it worked (I installed the zip file because I want to know if all the files on the internal sd card are broken). So I tried installing the ROM again. Aborted. I rebooted the system, and now it's stuck with the white Samsung text! I don't know why, so I just drained the battery with the Samsung text still ongoing.
Today, I'm pretty sure the battery is drained (there's no text anymore), so I tried charging it. Nada, it's stuck with the loading logo on the battery image.
I think my device is bricked, I don't know. I researched it and all I found was the BootLoop. Is that the error on my SGP? I want to know if my device is bricked, and what caused this. Help?
Its not a brick..reboot to recovery (home + volume up + power ) and install some ics rom for player ..boot to that rom and then go again to recovery and install jb rom.That is offcourse if you have 5.0

Thanks, and one more question: Is it okay if I download the ROM zip from my computer and just transfer it to my player with Download Mode? Because I can't open my player, just to Download and Recovery mode.

transfer the zip files to your SD card; use those files to flash. Also, now, can you get into recovery/download mode? Like after having removed the player from the USB?
just curious- did you originally download the ROM/app package to your device (ie /mnt/sdcard/????) and flash, or did you place the files in the SD card (ie /mnt/sdcard/external_sd [or something like that]) before flashing?
===
Edit: Ok, so literacy kicked in and I carefully read your OP. My guess, and I could be wrong, though I doubt it, is that the installation aborted because you flashed the packages from your internal SD and NOT your external SD (ie the actual SD card). Since the ROM rearranges directory tree (or whatever), it would stand to reason that the installation aborted during the installation process since it could no longer locate the zip. Ie it is no longer /mnt/sdcard/downloads (or wherever), but rather /storage/sdcard0/downloads. I'm guessing that CWM bypasses this and accesses your SD card directly, rendering installation from your actual SD card immune to these effects.
So, try again (assuming your device can still go into CWM recovery) and flash the packages in the proscribed order, but this time, from the ACTUAL SD card, and NOT internal. I "upgraded" directly from a GB rom, having flashed the zip files from the external SD card, and suffered no problems, so I know it isn't necessary to go through ICS. Good luck!
This is a helpful one! I'm sorry, but one last question, (I'm a newbie sorry!) how do you move the zip files to the external SD Card? And if I do that, and it flashed successfully, do I have to start again if I remove my SD card? Really sorry for the questions, but I really want to know.
Thank you so much! Since my computer didn't recognize my SGP (suckish USB cable lol), I placed my external SD card on my cellphone and plugged the cellphone into the computer to download the zip files (I downloaded them directly to the card). Afterwards I placed my SD in my SGP and flashed--It's working, thank you!!!

All you need to do is use a file manager to move zip to sdcard1. Make sure you follow the steps in op of rom.

Thanks for the tip! I switched to JB ParanoidAndroid already because the Gapps on CM10 Nightly don't appear. Thank you anyway!
hi Everyone,
Im using S3 I9300 rooted with stock rom
I was going through this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.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
Hello can anybody help??
Guys please reply !! I don't know what I did but all of a sudden my perfectly working S3 stopped detecting my sim and I don't know how to fix that... You people may know what wrong I did but as for me I cannot even reconcile where I went wrong with my phone. If you need to know any more details about my phone or software please ask
Patience. You cannot expect that other forum members would reply to your thread ASAP
Anywho, have you tried inserting other sim card onto your s3?

Haha ummm, download a ROM to an SD card (buy a cheap small one if you don't have one, to save yourself in situations like this), put it in, install that beast.

What carrier you have doesn't matter... all versions of the G3 has an sdcard slot, which you can use if you have an external sdcard. It supports up to 128GB.
OP, just download a new ROM file on a computer and put it on a microsd. TWRP can install it from that.
SDCARD
when did verizon get a external sdcard?i havent seen any external sdcard vs985
edit:nevermind you are right
hey guys, I did the same as the OP. I tried loading an OS onto an SD card and I cant it to mount in TWRP. what am I doing wrong??
edit- got it working again, thank you guys!!

After you've flashed the zip, you don't need to keep that zip on your phone at all anymore. The OS is installed and you're all good. I mean, you should keep it on an external sd, in case something like this happens again - but you don't have to. If you're low on space, delete the original zip, but make a backup in TWRP - that is more handy to have anyway.

Is this the same with any downloads such as roms , addons, modems, hotspot provisions and the like, once they are in TWRP Recovery can I delete them from my phone /sd/ downloads and they remain in TWRP?
They aren't in TWRP recovery, they are installed into your phone, replacing stuff that was already there. The zip archives are just downloaded so TWRP can be used to install (flash) them. Those archives don't run in your phone. You can delete them and re-download them later if you ever need to flash them again (not likely).
Format your SD cards as fat32 - you'll need a tool to do so (just Google it, or look on this forum in the TWRP thread). Alternatively, you can use the "push" command from a computer through ADB to send a file directly to your phone's internal memory. You can Google that up as well. Actually, I did that one for you...
