I have placed Meanrom.zip in the root of the SDCard and I can go to ES Explorer and located it witout a problem but when I go into TWRP to install Zip file it does not display. Any suggestions?
Make sure the zip extension isn't in caps. i.e. ZIP

Just checked and it is lower case.
Make sure its not reading from internal storage. If it is then u won't be able to see ur zip file that's on ur sd card

Go to ''mount'' in twrp and check '' mount external sd'' or something like that

you have to goto mount in twrp and change it to internal storage
Sorry to open up such an old threat, but i have simmular issues as mentiont above.
Ive gone to hell and back, getting my phone ( a MT6582 Lenovo A3600d ) rooted and TWRP on it, working and all. Yea im a prood noob.. !
But now im stuck. Ive put some compattible rom on my empty and formatted sdcard. Ive done all the flashing that is required to finally install the rom, but TWRP wont see the zip file.
Its in the root of my SD in the correct zip format etc. When i go to the TWRP file manager i also cant locate it. Eventho it tells me its reading of the sd card and not the internal memory. It will only display the maps and show some txt files. Dont know if thats normal. These are the only actuall items/lines i can see pop up.
Furthermore in "Mount" it wont let me check the box "Ext-SDcard", all the others i can check. Is this where the problem lies ? Ive removed the card and formatted it and put the rom zip file back on it a few times through my desktopcardreader.
Since ive allready flashed the phone its completly empty, only the TWRP recovery is accesable.
Am i missing something ? Any help would be greatly apprishiated

Try to use CWM, you can make it through MTK Droid Tools (I kinda forget the name)
1.Download it
2.Obtain superuser access.(make sure usb debugging and usb drivers installed.
3.Goto the second tab
4.select backup and kill the process after seeing boot.img being backed up.
5.again to the second tab.
6 .select 'To choose from the boot.img file'
7.Go to the backup folder.
8.select phone model.
9.choose boot.img
10.click yes on every pop up box.
11.done.
CWM works flawlessly on my Lenovo A3600D.
Even if it's not touch version
I tried to install revolt jb rom , did the wipes but it didn't install properly
The screen buttons wouldn't work, so I went into recovery and totried install my back up off my internal memory but it wouldn't find it ? Lucky I had wanam rom on the Sd card I istalled that.,
when I've checked it looks like all my files are there on the internal memory but it won't recognize then,this is the same in recovery. Any ideas how to access my internal memory again?
I've tried searching but am away from my computer so it's not easy.
Very difficult to understand your post .
kemeys ???
You say
Off my internal memory but it wouldn't find it ?>>>>
You say
did the wipes
Logic says you wiped the backup or part of it .
Root with the exact same recovery you used .
jje
All the file are still on my phone , it just won't find them, I managed to locate then with root browser lite , but recovery can't find them.
Typing this on my phone, so you'll have to excuse the typos.

update
I've just plugged my phone into the computer, it looks like all my files are still on the internal memory card, but they've been put into a folder lablled 0, just got to figure out how to access that folder on the phone or better still on the recovery. No problem find it on the phone now, just can't access it from recovery.
If i can get into the folder in recovery I should be able to restore my back up, I tried to copy and paste the back up into the clockworkmod backup folder, it copied, but failed the MD5 test when trying to restore.
Update: copied the cwm back up to the external sd card and it worked, so I'm back where I started from, just got to sort out my files and delete any duplicates.
Hi there
I am not very tech savy and I managed yesterday to install cyanogenmod on my i9100. The problem was that specific nightly I installed had a issue with not mounting the sd card. I read on the forum that this would be fixed in today's update.
So I loaded the new update of cyanogenmod on my sd card like I did yesterday thinking that the mount issue would be resolved if I boot into CWM wipe factory data and cache and the install the new ROM from the SD CARD. Basically do exactly what I did yesterday just with the new rom.
Alas the sd card would not mount. The only thing that could mount was internal sd storage. I did not save the ROM there so now my phone does not switch on when I press the power button but is does switch on when I want go into recovery and dowload mode.
This is what I did today
I installed siyah-v3.2b8 via odin
Then I did the same with CWM recovery
After this I booted into recovery mode and wiped factory data and cache.
My intention was to next install(or flash not sure what the right word is) CM10.1
Any help please. I have been looking around on the forums for solutions, but none are so similar to this. As I am just starting to learn how all of this works, I am not sure wether other solutions apply.
I am worried that I bricked the phone.
Thank you so much for any help. I will continue to look for a solution until I get a response.

I went into cwm ( think it comes with Siyah.)
I went to the following setting on the list after plugging the phone in the PC in recovery mode
- mounts and storage
then
- mount from usb storage
The internal SD was recognized and I just copied Cyanogenmod zip file over.
I then installed zip from internal sdcard.
and voila....it booted right in and the new nightly build sorted out the SD card problem. So far no further issues.
Thank you for the admin moving my post to the correct place. And I hope this helps.
Hi guys, hope you are fine.
My phone is SAMSUNG ACE GT-S5830
I tried several ROMs official and non, but it couldnt solve my problem
my story started when i was trying to download unofficial rom via CMW, but suddenly the touch screen started to be weird, it never works perfectly most of the time, AND i found my phone without internal memory, if i am not installing an SD card, when I open "my files" it says:
"your phone does not have SD card inserted"
and i can't take photos for eq without SD card.
i thought that there is something wrong happened to the partitions, i used Cooper_v1.0 several time but nothing solved.
i flashed CWM recovery and i wiped cache partition and i wiped every thing and then flashed a stock ROM but nothing happens.
i feel like if i solved the internal memory problem the touch screen will work again perfectly,
ANY EXPERIENCES OR ANY ADVISES ???
Thanx

Hello guys,
I was using DorimanX v 119 10 series along with Slim Saber 08/24 release, then yesterday when the battery was around 18% it turned off randomly.
When I turned it on, I saw I was not getting options for Dual Boot and it took me straight to Primary ROM where it showed a message Internal Memory Damaged, format it on the notification bar.
Tried opening Titanium Backup and other apps to backup but SDCARD0(internal storage) was not mounted anywhere.
Restarted the phone and now its getting stuck on DorimanX logo.
Tried mounting from recovery and doesn't seem to work..
Is there anyway possible to recover my data? There are lots of information and photos that I need in that internal memory
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
had that happen to me more than once on kitkat.
are you able to mount usb in recovery?
tried this?: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108
i went back to my jellybean backup and copied everything over to my computer.
I would be interested to hear how you are doing on this?
I recently had a crash on my S2 with the same version of DorimanX.
Had you repartitioned?
Thanks for your input guys.
@rgomia, the internal memory still shows corrupted and not able to read from it even from Aroma file manager
Actually I tried flashing slimsaber again and I could boot but still the internal memorys not readable from any file manager. Looks like I'll have to repartition it.
Was looking to somehow recover those lost data, but doesn't look like there's a chance
Reformatting worked and everything back to normal, Since I'm gonna get Redmi 1S anyway, I'll stay on slim kernal and use this as a backup phone. 5 years of important data and photos lost in the process :/
If your phone is bootable you should just mount it on your PC and run a file recovery program.
Your pictures are usually stored on your primary SD card.
