hello i don't know way but after i install the cg 10.2 the recovery don't mount the sdcard, not the SD card and not the internal memory of the phone, so if i what to install other ROM i need to flash to another kernel with odin, but after i install to a new ROM the recovery is change back to CWM-v6.0.3.4
i tried to format the sd card with cwm, but still the recovery don't see the sdcard
Way the Recovery is change every time i install a new ROM
and what to do to make the recovery see the sdcard
Follow the instruction in this post Odin Mode http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31310884&postcount=3
After the flash it will reboot, immediatly after press volume up + home + power. Until you see the recovery and flash other rom.
It should work, at least it worked for me.
That happend to me when i installed latest illusion rom, and this worked for me.
NOT RESPONSABLE IF PROBLEMS OCCUR, but should work fine, because it's flashing kernel (and recovery).
Try to Mount it in CWM ..

I had successfully managed to flash clockwork mod recovery using recovery flasher v1.3 and installed the zOMG ROM from here when I noticed that for some reason the home button was no longer working. I booted into recovery and did a data/factory reset, then tried to reapply the rom. (It was working well enough before the home button stopped working.) The problem is I never restarted back in Android. Every reboot of the clockwork mod recovery loops me back to recovery!
I have tried using my nandroid backup to restore things, and formatting the sdcard and copying files back on using the mount USB option (thinking maybe I had a corrupted copy) but still to no avail.
I'm wondering if the source of my problems is indeed the sdcard itself, since before I did the reboot into recovery I formatted the sdcard and copied the rom over to it. This removed the two files related to the kernal or recovery that were there before. Could this be why I am bootlooping?
Seriously, I need help here! I need my phone to work and cannot afford to replace it at this time.
Can anyone tell me what to do to fix this situation? Thanks!

Solved.
I was able to flash a different recovery from the command line using recovery flasher v1.3 and that allowed me to boot my phone directly into Android again. Then a few seconds later I was able to install RodimusROM and that seems to be working without issues. So I guess the biggest take away from this for me seems to be not to panic.

Can you help me out?
I S-OFFd my device and installed CyanogenMod Recovery v5.0.2.0 using the instructions from revolutionary.io. I installed the ClockworkMod ROM manager.
I don't know what i tried later, I did put PB99IMG.zip file in my SD card and i rebooted my device ---> went into the ClockworkMod recovery ---> used install from SD card option and selected the file PB99IMG.zip.
Before this ever happened when i put the zip file in my sd card and when i rebooted the phone is asked me this
Parsing..... [SD ZIP]
[1]...Bootlader
<Vol Up> Yes
<Vol Down> No
I selected Yes and it said updated. Then again i went to ClockworkMod recovery and used the install from SD card option and selected the zip file.
NOW WHENEVER I START MY PHONE ITS GOING INTO CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY, BUT NOT INTO ANDROID OS.
What should I do now??
Can you please tell me if i can solve the problem using recovery flasher v1.3??? and how could i do it???
I keep trying to get in, but I'm always getting sent to the stock recovery... this is what i'm doing
first I installed root access... Update.zip is in the internal memory (if i put it on the SD card, when I click reinstall it says file isn't found . . . ?), Update.zip is still there (not sure if I was supposed to remove it)
1. Open Rommanager
2. Clck Flash Recovery ClockworkMod Recovery
3. Pick Vibrant (MTD)
4. Pick ClockworkMod 2.x
5. Click Reboot into Recovery
when I do this it brings me to the stock recovery, tried about 3-4 times now with no success
Question: Are you on the stock rom?
If so, you can select "Galaxy S Vibrant" in Rom Manager to flash CWM, then reboot to recovery. The MTD one I believe is for 2.3 roms that can't boot into CWM via 3 button combo.
first off u have root correct? u have to install packages twice first. Then u will end up in green recovery. Then from green recovery flash any rom. But if ur trying to flash cm, u wanna pick 3x not 2x.
Ur update package could be corrupt, get a new one.
nevermind, i figured it out, i just simply rooted it with CWM manually instead
HERE IS WHAT I DID ..
UNLCOCKED BOOTLOADER WITH DOS PROGRAM
-downloader rom manager and flashed cwm but anytime i turn off the phone and boot into recovery it shows a exclamation point if i dont flash cwm and do recovery through rom manager and i have to flash cwm from rom manager everytime i need to go into recovery which i know is not right.
- do i need to flash Cyan 5.0.2.3-atrix4.1 / ZIP version. to have a recovery so i can do back ups?
- and also i just downloaded the cm7 zip, do i unzip on my sd card copy to internal or just throw the zip on and copy?
-when i was able to get in to recovery after flashing cwm the beta.zip does not show in the internal or the sd card since it copied to both so im not sure if i need to flash that recovery i posted above to see the zip or not? if you could help answer these i would appreciate it.
love,
the noob

ok youve got a lot going on there
first things first. CM7 changes the storage locations for the SD cards so thats why you cant see those
the reason cm7 isn't booting is because you were using the wrong recovery. you need to fast boot flash romracers latest recoverhy for that to work.
that should also fix hour disappearing recovery problem,
id reccomend using a fruitcake to get back to stock and starting over
ok so i have only unlocked the bootloader nothing else im trying to get a recovery so i can actually put the cm7 zip in so i can flash to recovery. so i should flash rom racers recovery? and then do i flash cwm after i have the recovery, because the cm7 directions say too do so. i sincerely appreciate you helping me
Hi guys! I have been reading through the post and searching for possible solution to my Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 problem but I cant find any solutions. Here is the story:
I have flashed the GT-P1000 tab with clockworkmod version 6 (i am not sure the exact version) using Odin.
Now after flashing the recovery, I have successfully installed Cyanogenmod 11 (nightly build) and everything was successful and everything is great.
A friend of mine borrowed the tab and he put a pattern to lock the phone, instead of asking him what is the pattern I just decided to wipe the tab again to make a clean install. So what I did was I went to recovery and selected "format /system" which I shouldn't have, then after rebooting it is not booting up to Cyanogen anymore, so what i did was I just wiped everything (format /data, cache and factory reset)
Now this is the weird part, the devices has kept on booting up to clockwork recovery and it says the device is not yet rooted, it is asking me if it is ok to root it, I always selected yes
After another boot up, the clockwork recovery is now version 3.0.0.5??? it is really weird? I never installed any clockwork mod with a lower version... How did that happen?
Now whenever I try to install from sd card or restore it or mount it nothing happens, it just says:
E:Can't mount
E:unknown volume
E:unable process volume! skipping
I tried to flash the recovery again using Odin many times but still the clockwork mod is stuck in version 3.0.0.5.
Right now, I am not sure if my understanding of the entire system is correct:
1. Should I install a new recovery, if yes, how and why is it whenever I am installing it again it is not being installed, it gets stuck to version 3.0.0.5?
2. Are there any other recovery I should use and how should I install it? is it the same as using the Odin?
3. Is there a way to install the original recovery of this tab and then from there I will start over again.
@Battousai1
1. & 2. Find an Odin flashable recovery for p1000... Go to download mode and flash it with Odin...
After doing that you shouldn't have the problem anymore...
3. To install the original recovery find the stock rom which is again Odin flashable ... Flash it and you'll have the stock recovery...

Hi guys, just an update, I have finally managed to restore my device's software back to its original version. Thanks to Overcome. Here's the thread for those who still have this device and have some similar problems: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1881981
Hi,
I have a samsung S3 and I want to update it to lollipop or above as my nexus 5 has started randomly rebooting and I need a phone to use whilst I sort a replacement.
I have been following this guide: wccftech.com/install-aosp-android-5-1-1-lollipop-on-galaxy-s3/ as I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this custom rom business.
I have rooted the device and installed clockworkmod recovery v6.0.1.2. and copied over the rom and the gapps file to my phone.
I then booted into recovery mode and made a backup of the current setup.
I then did the factory reset and the cache wipe(s) and installed the new zip for lollipop and then the gapps.
This is where I received an error "E: Error in /sdcard/0/0/0/Download/gapps-lp-20150314.zip (status 7) installation aborted".
I figured that I should restore to my backup now but when I press it, the app says that files can't be found.
I can see that the files that I backed up do exist but they appear to have been dumped inside a new directory called /0/0/0 (I think this has got three levels because I've tried this a few times).
Now I can't boot into an OS to get any other roms on the phone and I can't edit the files on there (I googled and saw a possible fix for the gapp status 7) and I can't get clockworkmod to recognise an external SD card so I can copy over a new rom or file to try (I have googled and it's suggested the FAT32 is the format for this phone and my size of SD card (16GB)).
Can anyone offer me some advice on how to get out of this situation?
Thanks
Sounds like you're at a place where you should start exploring using your computer instead of a recovery in order to fix your system.
I recommend using the PC software Odin and installing a stock ROM of your device. (Or perhaps using fastboot)
There's plenty of guides on how to use Odin both here on XDA and on the rest of the internet if you just look around a bit
EDIT: This link contains a (possible) fix for your problem.

Don't use cwm as it is an outdated recovery. Use twrp instead.

I had a look at the link you suggested and it's one of the suggestions that had come up whilst I was googling for a fix. Unfortunately, I don't have any way to get the updated script onto the phone as the phone isn't picked up by my pc whilst it's in this state, and I can't get the recovery tool to recognise the sd card so I can't put it on there either.
I'll take a look at the stock rom or fastboot option and see if I can get back into the phone. Maybe then I can apply the fix in the suggested post.
Thanks

I'll see if I can install twrp through odin.
Thanks for your help
If the phone works in download mode, try to flash a stock rom too.
Update - fixed
Hi all, just wanted to let you know that I fixed the device with the combined advice from here:
I installed TWRP after holding the volume down + power + home buttons and then pressing volume up when the message appears (I can't remember what this mode is called). I then flashed the device with the TWRP image.
After this I rebooted into the TWRP recovery mode (Volume up + home + power and then release power button when the samsung logo appears).
At this point, the device appeared on my windows machine so I could upload a new image to the internal memory.
I decided to copy on CM13 and GApps.
I then wiped the cache, system, data, and davik cache using TWRP, then I installed CM13 and GApps.
After a reboot the device came back up as a new install.
Hopefully that information may be useful to somebody.
Thanks for all your help
