[Q] I deleted the .zip from SD! Can't flash - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I used ODIN to flash my tab and installed TWRP 2.2.0 on it, but the i accidently wiped enerything from the internal storage and lost the flashable_superuser.zip file that is needed to. Now I can't access the sd card or internal storage to put the file back. So what do I do? Through the damn thing in the garbage... i just want a working tablet....:crying:

Did you wipe system as well? Seeing that you wiped internal storage it wouldn't hurt to reflash stock ROM with Odin since there's nothing to lose. You can also use adb to push the file to the sdcard.

Trying to install a rom?

I'm having some trouble right now.. I rooted my phone, I put Hellybean onto my microsd card. I booted to android system recovery > reinstall packages, and then i deleted cache, formatted system, deleted the other cache etc.
I tried to find the hellybean zip on my microsd card but it was no where to be found.. So I rebooted my phone and now I have no OS, and when I boot into recovery and go to reinstall packages to try and get back to clockwork mod recovery menu it's not there either (assuming I'm missing the files to go there now).
What can I do guys? Do I need to get 2.3 back on here again and redo everything.. when I get back to where I'm going to flash the hellybean rom how do I find the file on my sd card? I went to SD folder and it wasn't there but I checked my sd card and it is there on the computer.
The ROM zip needs to be on your internal storage.
Mount on your PC, if your internal storage shows move ROM there with update.zip for Clockwork Mod.
Reinstall packages and once in cwm you'll be able to install HB from the zip.
If you can't see internal storage I'd Odin back to stock and then try again.

Sorry I didn't understand what you meant in the beginning. Mount on your pc? Explain a little?
If that doesn't work how do I use Odin to flash back to stock, what do I need to do, i don't need a full detailed guide but just what files and what buttons to press on odin.
There are lots of very detailed Odin guides. Look around. I wasn't real clear at first if you could get in CWM recovery. If you could, then you could Mount Storage and your PC would have seen the internal storage, thus allowing you to put the ROM.zip on it..
Look in the stickies for Odin guide. They are easy to follow. I'd tell you how to do it, but if you read it yourself you'll understand what your doing, and it will help you in the long run.

It concerns me that you said: "Do I need to get 2.3 back on here again"
The t959 never received an official 2.3 update. Does your device have a front facing camera? If so you have the t959v which is a very different device and is in a different section on xda.
sent from the depths of helly bean
The guide to ODIN back to factory stock is in the first sticky thread of this section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028
But also make sure you are using the Vibrant and flashing roms for it, not the S 4G.

[Q] Long Story... Help

I first tried to root the phone. I succeeded. The I installed RR and it got stuck in bootloop. Basically after half an hour it was still on the Resurrection Remix Logo. So then I remembered I forgot to format the phone first.
So I formatted everything except my SD card.
So now when I press "-Choose zip from sdcard" it says No Files found. I assume this is the internal memory because when I take the micro SD card out it has the rom on it and has not been formatted.
Now heres the issue.
When I press "- choose zip from internal sdcard" it says "E:Can't mount /emmc/" which I assume is the micro SD card.
So naturally I went to access the internal memory via USB.
But the Phone is not showing up as a drive.
So I am quite literally stuck.
Many Thanks to all who reply!

Are you sure that you have formatted the internal sd card?
Why?
Wipe data (factory reset) would have been enough IMO.
So you might have to flash a whole ROM again to your phone by using PC version of Odin.
Maybe use a stock ROM which usually come as Odin-flashable tar/md5 files.
Here you can find pre-rooted stock ROMs => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1608071
After flashing this, your phone should boot again and is already rooted.
Then you can flash PhilZ-cwm6 kernel from here => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270.
Use the zip file and flash it like described in stock recovery.
Then you have CWM recovery.
Now you can wipe data and flash your custom ROM.
Good luck !

Thanks!
I tried to change recovery myself but that didn't help at all.
I eventually managed to solved it by sifting through my stash of micro sd cards and eventually one of them worked.
Thanks a lot for your long response!

[Q] Soft bricked my phone by wiping data. Need some help.

Hey guys,
ok, basically, I had some issues with latest CM10, so I decided to do a 'wipe data/factory reset' within CWM Recovery, and then install clean version of CM10. Of coures I downloaded latest CM and Gapps and put them in the root of my phone. Well, at least I thought I was! I went to CMW Recovery, and wiped data to do a clean install, and just realized that I only have Gapps on my phone, and CM10 zip is nowhere to be found. So basically it didn't download well, or I somehow deleted it, I can't find it in any folder through CWM Recovery.
So, now I have soft bricked phone, I'm inside CWM Recovery but I don't have zip file to flash ROM. And, unfortunately, I didn't do backup :/
So what should I do? Should I use Odin, or is there any way to transfer this file from my computer somehow to SD card from inside Recovery? I also have Aroma manager installed (file manager that works inside CWM), but I'm not sure if I can somehow transfer this zip from computer with USB, or what's my best bet?
Thanks,
Nikola
Use card reader to copy zip to sd card.
Or if you have old backup use it.

Can't Restore Backup, Urgent Help Please!!

Okay before posting i have spent the majority of the day on this forum, the net and just generally searching for a solution. I installed the latest Omega V18 rom today with the latest Siyah-Dorimanx kernal. No issues, installed and worked fine recovered all my data. I was having a problem with Omega files kitchen, so i decided to wipe everything and try and start from fresh. I did a backup with CMW and Titanium, then i put the CMW backup ontop my laptop and wiped the phone and reinstalled everything, i was still getting the same problem and i went into Titanium and deleted all my backups, why i never know! But i still have the one on the laptop. Went for a final reinstall and obviously Titanium has no backup but my CWM backup is showing but i cant restore it in recovery mode or when the phone is on normally.
The phone works fine running Omega V18 Rom and Siyah-Dorimanx V7.43. No problem with booting or going into recovery mode, when i connect the phone to the usb on the laptop it comes up with removable disc E. My back up is on there and i can see it and open the folder and view the contents. However when i try to restore the backup either through CWM (V3.15) or booting into recovary mode the phone cannot find the back up.
I have tried all the restore options in recovery mode and i get E: Can't mount sdcard. So i'm stuck i have tried wiping all my data and doing factory reset etc and starting from the start, but still no joy. I have also tried to follow another guide on here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1238070 When i try to load the ED05 Froyo into Odin it fails.
Im desperate for a solution i just need my pictures back Anyhelp will be greatly appriciated, is there any thing i can do?
EDIT: I have just flashed it with Odin and a stock rom, now where do i go from here? Do i have to re-root the phone and install a custom rom again.
CWM and TB don't save your pictures! They are still there, on internal or on external SD Card, if you haven't deleted them by formating. Where did you save them?
I thought CWM did a full backup? Well atm the phone is running 4.0.4 ICS and when i go into stock recovery i still get the same cant mount sdcard!! Well i did format the whole phone and did factory reset so looks like i have lost them for good then? Now its back to standard why still cant it mount the sdcard?? I have placed the right Philz-cwm6 kernel onto the internal sdcard and go into stock boot and try to apply update and comes up E: unable to mount sdcard.

Do you have an extra sd card ? I am not joking I have realized last week that I didn't bother to buy one nearly 2 years ago :good: :laugh:
If you have saved your pictures on external sd card you can always take it out, put it into your sd slot in your notebook or pc and copy the files to your hard drive.

I have a small external card, but i didn't save the pictures to it or anything. I just assumed when i did my previous backups that it saved my files. Anyways i learnt that lesson the hard way it seems.
I connected the phone via usb and it came up E: Removable disc so i formatted it in windows, the put Philz kernel onto it and when into stock recovery and then tried to update via externel sd card and it fails to mount as usual. So why is E drive coming up in windows but not in the phone? Im really starting to loose my mind over this now, how do i fix this on a stock rom!
EDIT: I have flashed the Philz kernel via Odin, now i can get into CWMR Touch 6.0.1.4 I can go into the mounts and storage menu and mount /emmc but i still can't mount the /sdcard. I can now however apply an ZIP update from internal sdcard so now im getting too confused and lost i have been working for at least 10 hours on this in total so im going to bed and will try again tomorrow!!

[Q] Restarting...

Hello guys,
I needed to install stock rom on my Galaxy S2 phone. Everything went fine. I installed it via Odin, but just after I did that, phone keeps restarting when it shows Samsung symbol on screen. I tried to put it on recovery mode and do factory reset but it does not help. What should I do???
Thank you very much for help!

Are you sure you installed it correctly? Are you using the correct firmware? And what I mean was install via odin again and repeat the wipe process and see what happens!

I installed it 100% correctly man. But I forgot to mention, that somehow I messed up my memory before that. Before Installing it, phone was completely usable, but i couldn't open internal sd card on file manager. When i was trying to do something on recovery mode with INTERNAL sd card it was saying "could not mount /emmc/..." something like this. external sd card worked fine. I messed it up, because i didn't knew that s2 needs to install micro gapps package, so i tried to extend those 2gb. I used some files to that, but i forgot what i used to...

Oh, you mean you extended the system partition to 2gb right? You used the pit files right? Stock rom requires the system partition to be reverted to normal size (about 500mb or .5gb). So flash the .5gb system pit in odin and see how it goes! Stock rom doesn't need gapps, should be included already.
