Cannot get phone to see SDCARD in TWRP - AT&T LG Optimus G

I am using v2.6.3.0 and I cannot get the phone to recognize the sdcard in TWRP.
When using the phone booted into the ROM, it sees the sdcard and I am able to navigate throught the card.
I have tried mutiple cards formatted in FAT32, still nothing.
Anyone else have this issue?
LG Optimus G E970

Try a newer version, I think that one is old. There's a twrp for KitKat roms , use that one. I can use my SD card with no issue in recovery.

TWRP site only lists TWRP 2.6.3.0 as the latest for the LG Optimus G (the e970/AT&T one anyway).

I have a similar problem. I bricked using FreeGee - used LGNPST and teemys alt bin to unlock - get recovery. When I'm in recovery menu I can't mount any storages - Win 7 pc does not see any as disk drive. I tried using ADB to push the rom file on ADB push does not work I press enter after doing ADP push local/directory/rom.zip /sdcard/ and with the disks mounted/unmounted nothing seems to work. I popped out the SDcard too into an sdcard reader and the file format is unrecognized. At this point I have no idea how to get the rom into the phone. Any help would be greatly greatly apreciated. Thanks

same problem
I have the same issue. I'm using twrp 2.6.3.0 and do not see the folder on my internal and external sd card. Is there a newer version that we can download?

[Q] Can't mount SD card on recovery

Hi all. Used the search tool but couldn't find nothing similar.
My ATRIX is unlocked, rooted, running stock gingerbread. I used the automatic script for unlocking bootloader and rooting. I guess it installed Tenfar's recovery too. I installed Rom Manager some time ago, and today I have CWM Recovery 5.0.2.0. So I wanted to switch to romracer's in order to install a custom rom (maybe neutrino or wet dream, something with hdmi landscape =).
I was trying to instal romracer's recovery this morning. I'd put the .zip on my ext sdcard, but when I tried to use the "Install fom SD card" in RomManager, all I could see was the internal storage files. So I went ahead and transferred the .zip to internal storage root. Used Install from SD card again, selected the .zip. The phone rebooted, got into recovery mode.
That's when the problem came. It keeps waiting for SD card to mount, and then times out (20s). Is this sdcard trying to mount the EXT microSD? Why he needs it, since the .zip is in internal storage?
Any ideas on how to solve this? Am I doing something wrong here? Thank you very much. sorry providing so much information, thought it could be useful.
edit: additional information: I can see and use the external sd card on the phone normally. Can acces it via USB too, no problem.
Where exactly are you stuck? You say you managed to flash a zip and then rebooted the phone, right? So where are you now?
What filesystem is your SD card formatted in?
Boot to fastboot and flash recovery from fastboot.

When it reboots and automatically enters recovery, it says it cannot mount the SD card. So it doesn't actually flashes the zip, I guess. I'm where I begun.
Windows says its "FAT". Not FAT32, just FAT. Its a small (512mb) microsd card from my old phone. Should I format it? Maybe its just too small to use in this phone?
Thanks for your reply.

will try that later. thanks.
no clue about what was happening to my sdcard?
I thought it might've been a fs issue - I had something similar recently, but it does seem more like your recovery is borked!
As that guy up there ^ said, flashing over the recovery may do the trick

[Q] No ROM on my P760 / formated internal sd

Hi everyone!
I had lot of custom ROMs on my LG P760 (CM, Avatar, JellyBam, Pac-Man...) but after lot of flashing my phone started turning off (i always wiped all data before flash sth new) . So I though my problem must be in CWM - so i flashed older version of CWM and tried to wipe all data. But it didn´t work. I formated internal sd card and after recovery rebooting there was still zip of ROM i wanted to flash and all files were now in folder named "0"in internal sd. Turning off of phone stopped and i flashed newest CWM 6.0.3.1.
AND HERE´S MY PROBLEM: I decided to try out Jelly Cream so i took zip to internal sd. But after these problems i had with wiping data i formated internal sd again (but with CM 6.0.3.1) and there suddenly wasn´t anything :angel: and when i want to use something from external sd, it writes - " external sd can´t mount". I also wanted to copy zip with "mounts and storage"-- "mount USB storage" but there wasn´t any selection "mount USB storage" with USB connected on phone. And i tried also flashing official firmware from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344 - step by step but it stucked on 4% of flashing . So now I have perfectly clean phone - only with CWM.
So, if u have any ideas how to solve this, please help !

I can't put anything on the sd card I formatted that too ! Pls help !

I have a HTC Sensation.
I have a removable SD
My Clockwork Recovery doesn't have adb sideload. By sideload you mean the clockwork recovery in my phone ? Or in the command line of the PC ?

Download a ROM, put it in your SD-Card, mount it and flash it through recovery.
Smack that Thanks button if I helped!

P.S. Time for school, not much time for XDA
sideload is a mode within some recoveries that lets you easily flash roms/mods/etc without having it on your phone, you could look for another recovery for your phone and use that but first try to reformat sd in recovery again.
i assume you dont have a sdcard reader that you can place a rom on your card or you would have done so, but you can use adb
open a terminal in the location of the ROM you want (cd to it if you need)
adb push nameofROM.zip /sdcard
then also push gapps or whatever else you need
then flash from recovery
if the above wont work there are more ways

Help ! No OS / dead internal memory

**TAMPERED**
**UNLOCKED**

S-ON
So i tried to root my desire 601 and accidentally killed my internal SD card and wiped off my rom inside . Now i have no OS and a dead internal SD card inside . I can't mount system/data/sdcard in recovery and almost everything else . I do have am 2gb external memory card though . I tried flashing Insertcoin ROM from my external SD card but whenever its installing halfway in Aroma , the phone will just turn black screen (shutdown or something) and then it will get stuck at HTC bootscreen .
I tried to use adb to mount the internal memory to my PC using some guide on xda forums but it won't work too .
Any help is appreciated . Thanks :thumbup:

1. What is your hboot version?
2. What recovery did you flash?
You might have the wrong recovery, which causes the reboots during the flashing process. If you updated to kitkat via OTA, you should install TWRP recovery, which you can find in Desire 601 Original Android Development. Also, if you have an OTG cable, you can use a USB stick or HDD instead of an SD card.

You have the new hboot with the new partition layout. You HAVE TO use this TWRP. Otherwise it will always do some weird stuff and mess up your phone. If you really can't find a working SD, then use adb to push the ROM zip file in your internal memory by typing this into your cmd/terminal:
Code:
adb push <file>.zip /sdcard/rom.zip
Replace <file> with the name of the ROM zip you downloaded.
Then in TWRP go to Install and select the rom.zip file from the list. It should work fine.

[Q] LG G Vista (AT&T) D631

Finally have root for at&t lg vista!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...lg-devices-t3049772/post59309508#post59309508
There seems to be a way to root this device manually introducing datroot.zip locate on the bts folder of ioroot and renaming it to update.zip, tou must put the update.zip on the root of your sd card you should need a format ext2 sd card, from adb input adb recovery boot and update the file via recovery that should root the vista. Let me know if it works
finally rooted lg vista at&t

Anyone know how to get lollipop on here? Or any rom? I've always been more concerned about rooting for the sake of flashing but from what I've discovered there aren't any custom recoveries compatible with the G Vista.
