Hi XDA,
I recently install cyanogenmod on my Att m8 and can't get the gaaps. Everytime I install the zip, it won't show up in any of the folders in my TWRP. I tried to install it onto my micro sd then insert that into the phone but when I install from there it says that it can't mount /data or something like that. I don't understand why I can't get the .zip to show up. Should i switch to ClockworkMod because I need google play and the gaaps.
Thanks
I meant to say clock work mod recovery it sounded like I meant cwm was a Rom

Hi
I have flashed the cyanogenmod 7.1.0 on my htc legend which went fine, but after som time i realized the gps wasn't working, i tried for severel hours all kinds of gps fix advices i found in google but without any luck.
Because of this i want to go back to stock android 2.2 or 2.3 if possible.
I am having some problems returning to stock android and again tried severel guides.
I tried downloading the newest htc sync and run a RUU update but the updater can not connect to the phone, no htc sync support in cyanogenmod is the problem i think.
I tried downloadning severel different image files of different versions of android on to the sd card and rebot to recovery mode throug clockwork and tried flash a zip file from sd card. But either the update stops because the file is "bad" or it need a newer version of something the cyanogenmod updated when it was installed.
I can see i should be able to do a nandroid backup if i have made such one, guess the guide i used didnt mention that, only i shoud remember to backup my pictures/music/sms....
If you need any more information please ask
Hi,
try this sequence:
1. Open ROM manager application
2. Scroll down to "All clockworkMod recoveries" and click on it
3. choose from that list 2.5.0.7 and press OK
4. Now download a sense ROM from XDA like Blay0's ROM here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=866849 (if you want to keep this rom download also the patch for upgrade to b0.8.4)
5. Copy the ROM and patch to the SD card
6. From the ROM manager reboot into recovery
7. In recovery mode wipe data and cache
8. Still in recovery mode instal zip from SD card: first the b0.8 ROM and then the b0.8.4 patch
9 Reboot
Now you should have a stock based ROM and do whatever you like (go back to really stock rom which I don't reccommend)
Let me know how it works!
Thanks ill give it a try
Twlauncher problem, i get the loop of errors and force to close in my friends launcer unfortunatlly he is not rooted and we are trying to avoid hard reset because he ll loose all the data from the phone
this is a similar problem that i found in youtube and a way to solve it...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmprlsmHFgw
so the guy installs a launcher from his pc to his phone through the markets site.
the thing is that although my friend has 3G open the new launchers wont download so i found a launcher here in XDA in zip file to install it from the recovery menu, i flashed CWM recovery through odin and placed the zip file in the sd card but i had no luck finding it from the recovery (install zip from sd card) it says tha there is no file there, also cant find the storage on the pc when i mount it from the recovery so i am guessing that the recovery is not reading the sd card.
So finally my question is there a way to install zip or apk files through odin? cause i am sure it works or if there is a total diffrent way to istall something to SGS2 without being able to get in the menu it has to be installed through the recovery or odin.
Every aswer will be appreciated
Thank you all very much and i love this forum
Come on guys even suggestions would be nice...:silly:
If you have USB debugging on, you can push one to it via adb.
Alternatively if on ICS and you have a microSD card, you could use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719 to give you CWM recovery and create a simple CWM flashable update containing one.
okay, here's what happen, i've been playing with my phone regarding finding the right rom.
here was the last changes that i've made, i did this.
You should be root and you should have CWM 5.0.2.6 Fixed flashed
1.You'll need a coustom rom or a stock with a custom kernel (to get init.d support folder) [AS THIS ROM]
2.Your sdcard should be partitioned, use partition magictools to do It.
3. When you'll get It ready, download int2script in this LINK
4. Boot into recovery
5. mount and system >>> mount /system
6. go back and install the zip
7. mount and system >>> mount /sd-ext
8. mount and system >>> format sd-ext
9. Reboot
10. Done!
and was able to successfully increase internal memory.. however after doing that some apps didnt work properly.
so i decided to flash my phone to a diff. rom again, however i can't download anymore rom in the forum, i mean the download won't even start after i click download, it keeps on failing at the start of the download, i tried to download diff. rom's using my phone but still not allowing me to download any rom. i don't know what happen, but what i can say is the memory is still readable, since i can still install apps in google play, however when i'm trying to download using a browser(tried different browser already), it still keeps on failing i dont know why can anybody assist me please.. i wan't to download a rom in the forum however my phone won't allow me to download it.
Make sure you have sufficient free space on SD card.

like he said, make sure u have enough space on ur sd. If this dosent work then use a pc and flash the stock kernel and rom. u can find any tutorial on xda.For more info u can pm me Regards.
I really need help. Major problem.
My storage is not working at all (external-SD card one). I'll try to give all the info about the problem and how it appeared:
My One X+ was on CM 10.1.3 with BLADE kernel 3.1.10 #201305062233 (I didn't use the included kernel in the ROM.zip, used an older version instead). Yesterday I tried to update to CM 10.2 Nightly (I think it was 20131105) but through the CM Updater. It downloaded the ROM and I updated it without flashing the boot.img previously and the phone rebooted and got stuck at bootscreen but, ok, than I tried to flash the kernel through the One X+ Toolkit and it failed. From this point, I may have made some stupid things but here's what I did:
I forgot to clean cache and dalvik cache and since I couldn't flash new kernel I decided to go back to the previous ROM 10.1.3 and after I did it (without wiping data) it rebooted and acted weirdly so I went back to recovery and cleaned cache, dalvik and did a SD card format(!) Reason I did it was cause it didn't recognize anything on SD card when connected to PC via USB, but DID recognize everything in CWM recovery under the Flash new zip - menu. After that, I got lost. One more thing I also forgot - Google apps. I did not flash the zip and now it was deleted from SD along with ROM.zip and other stuff. I thought of bringing it back to SD, but... all I'm getting is this( image one) its emty and when I open properties it shows this (image two). When I try to copy anything on it it doesn't allow me. In phone's file manager I can access internal memory (system, sys, acct, data, rfs, root...) but inside storage-folder is only folder-emulated. No sdcard0, sdcard, legacy and that kind of stuff and if I try to crate them they disappear after reboot. Long story-short, now I can't do ANYTHING! Cant copy stuff to SD, can't flash kernels and ROMs, can't install RUU (i tried that one too-no results, and yes, I did re lock the bootloader), cant't swap recovery, can't use my phone for anything except for calling, texting and searching in the browser (but cant download anything). Another bummer is that I can't access Gapps.
So, to sum up: no way of using SD with phone or PC. I hope there is a way for using my storage again but I can't think of any.
PLEASE help if anyone knows the answer. I'll appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Any other info, just ask.
hey man i know this is a very old post but i have the exact same problem, did you find solution to this problem ?
Hi.
I recently aquired a Samsung Galaxy GT i9000 and wanted to get a newer version of android on it cause the one that had was broken, the phone would turn off by iteself if not used.
So after a quick google search got to this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBFtVvbRGN0.
Watching the video i realized i don't have ClockworkMod Recovery so went to google again and found this guide http://www.idroidspace.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s-gt-i9000-and-install-cwm-recovery-how-to/.
Fallowed the guide and got ClockworkMod Recovery installed using CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVT-v4.3-CWM3RFS if somehow helps.
So back to the video i dowloaded CyanogenMod and Google apps provided on this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2526478.
I copy the files onto the sd and insert it. I boot phone into recovery, didnt made android backup and proceed to do wipe data, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache. I go to install zip from zipcard and i get Cannot mount /sdcard or.
Did another googlesearch and got to this http://www.droidviews.com/fix-e-cant-mount-sd-card-issue-android-devices/.
Tried to format sd card various times but still doesn't work so i tried the method 2 listed there.
Got to http://www.droidviews.com/setup-adb-and-fastboot-on-windows-within-seconds/ and installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot.
I connec t the phone in recovery mode , luch Minimal ADB and Fastboot and run "adb devices" but my device isnt listed there.
And now i'm stuck. I might not be doing some stet or idk. First time trying whole android install stuff and any help would be appreaciate it. Thanks in advance.
