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.

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.

I'm accessing via fastboot and need to access my files that were on the internal memory.
When I access the folder /mnt/sdcard, it is empty.
How do I access the files that are in the internal memory by ADB?
/mnt/emmc
or
/sdcard-ext/
Thanks, but the folder "/sdcard-ext" is empty and "/mnt/EMMC" does not exist.
Yeah because you said in PM me that you are not able to turn on the phone, and in fastboot mode it doesnt mount the partitions :/
This was the "other" problem, yesterday. I said here just to record on the forum. I accessed the files, but the internal memory was not mounted.
Yesterday the app "Rom Toolbox" gave a soft-brick corrupting the framework-res.apk when I used the menu to change the battery icon (do not do it on your Atrix!). But luckily the ADB was activated and could restore it and everything returned to normal.
Today the "Rom Toolbox" did **** again, but unfortunately the USB Debugging is off. Now I'm desperately searching for a way to restore the framework-res.apk without losing my installation and without unlocking my bootloader.
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:
Hi,
I have some problem with files on my tablet.
When i connect my tablet to my computer with USB cable or with WiFi access i can't see some files/folders
For exemple i've recorded a video but i can't take it by exploring my tablet with my computer, i see the file with the files manager app in the tablet but not on my comp.
I've tried to reboot the tablet, nothing changed.
I'm really mad at this **** how i'm supposed to send files to my comp that's ridiculous!
I don't know if it's important but i'm on stock ROM i'm just rooted and unlocked BL.
You can only see files which are in the /sdcard subtree (=on the internal sdcard) and are not hidden files.
You can't see files outside of /sdcard.

I've found a solution, i use AirDroid and i can see all files.
So today I was looking at memes on Reddit and the pictures stopped loading. I was almost out of storage space so I thought maybe it had finally filled with memes and that a restart would delete some temporary files (?).
But after the restart it's stuck on the booting animation.
I am using Lineage OS 8.1, been using it since April with no issues.
I'm trying to mount it so I can copy the files but there seems to be some issue:
If I plug it in while stuck on the animation it doesn't show as a file system
If I use my desktop (Win 10) and plug it in using the mount option in TWRP it doesn't show up either
If I use my laptop (Win 10)and TWRP mount it shows up and I can seem to delete files but I can only access the sd card and I can't put files in there
If I use my laptop (Manjaro Linux) I can mount the drive and list all the files but I can't read or add anything.
So... I can't copy my files, I can't update to a new ROM and I can't boot.
I also tried using "adb devices" on my desktop pc but the phone doesn't show up in there if I'm in fastboot. It only shows up in recovery and bootloop modes :S
No idea what to do here.

Hey! I don't like asking this but... did you try switching your phone off and turning it on again ?
Okay, if you can access TWRP then try wiping dalvik and cache and it might just do the trick!
Also, try removing the SD card if you have one and restart. Corrupt SD cards can be the culprits behind implausible errors. Another thing you can try is draining battery to 0% and charge completely and try switching the phone on again.
Now these are just some easy and dubious fixes that might work and most likely won't. But just give it a try. If that didn't work we can try something else :
If you can access TWRP which I think you can because your phone is stuck at "boot animation" and not the boot logo. You can simply flash another ROM. I don't understand why you say that you can't do that.
1. Just take an SD card, copy any ROM you want to install.
2. Insert the SD card and reboot to recovery.
3. Flash the zip and you're done
If I'm missing something do let me know. Good luck!
