Can you get to download mode? if you can, You need to use odin and flash the a kernel with a .tar file(have a look at siyah kernel, google it) onto your phone.

That's only available in custom recoveries like CWM. What you're looking at is the stock recovery that came with your device. You need to flash the custom recovery first using whatever method for your device (read device forum) and then only you can flash custom ROMs.

Hi,
Even i got the same problem, but after that i check i copied it in internal SD card.
Thanks,
I had the same Problem with my ZOPO ZP900. I found out that the CWM Version i had could not mount the USB (SDCARD). A different (older) CWM Version fixed the Problem. The one that ZOPO offers is bad.

If you want to install custom roms on your device, please just google the name of your device and the custom rom you would like to flash. There's plenty of guides on the internet. However, about the "unable to mount sdcard" problem: Have you encrypted your phone with the android built-in encryption? I had the same issue when already using ClockworkModRecovery, CWM was unable to mount the partitions due to them being encrypted. I found a workaround by creating a temporary filesystem in Ram, that i mounted in /sdcard/ as described here: android.stackexchange.com/a/23879 (sry i am not yet allowed to share links i guess). Hope i could help,
Gasp0de
EDIT: Please only do this if your problem is that the phone is encrypted. It will probably not be of use in other cases, and i have no idea what might happen.

Hey guys can anyone halp me im trying to root my galaxy sm j200y and i do the whole odin process but when it says pass it doesnt reboot automaticly and my recovery mode doesnt have install can you please help
My Galaxy gio is rooted and is with a clockworkmod recovery. Yesterday, I tried to flash a custom kernel. After flashing successfully (through cwm recovery), i reboot my phone and then it stuck at boot screen.
I did many searches but cannot understand any.
I can go into recovery and download mode which is i think so required by odin.
I wonder if I can flash any stock rom again easily. Can anyone provide me with a zip file with which i can put in sd card and install zip through cwm recovery by which i can unbrick my phone. I tried wipe data and factory reset but nothing worked. Plz help:crying:

your best chance would be ODIN
but you can download any other rom from gio forum and flash it i think it should work properly

Well, odin is a lot complicated. Can you please give any gio rom link that would work? I flashed the kernel, not rom so will it work?
anyone help me? Does flashing another rom or kernel help me unbrick my phone? Any kernel's or rom's zip file please for my gio? Reply please

i recently installed miui v5 on my galaxy i9100 i tried it out and didint like it so i downloaded the ressurection kitkat 4.4 rom i tried to flash it (i was using cmw recovery version 6) which it came it while installing something like 'installation aborted (status 7)' so i thought okay ill flash miui back and get another rom, i flashed back the miui it installed all correctly but when i rebooted the phone it gets stuck on the samsung boot logo and i get nothing so i went back into cmw to see if i could found out whats happend, i tried to wipe/factory reset the phone through cmw and i get 'error mouting sd card.android secure.. so i went into mounts/storage and tried to wipe the sd card just by itself that didnt work i also like an idiot whiped my external storage (usb storage) that had the Roms/gapps in and now im stuck and cant do anything, there is no sideload on cmw.. so what can i do to flash a new rom and what rom can i use that will 100% work smoothly i want it to be 4.4
okay . first up stop panicking and all will be cool . i assume you can enter recovery mode ? switch your device off , remove the sd card and place a newer version of cwm recovery by a sd card reader ( http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/recovery/CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip ) . Also Place the rom ( the one you wish [since you want it be kitkat , i recommend you to flash cyanaosp ] ) after you are done copying both files on sd using a card reader , place the sd back and plug the battery in . boot into recovery mode and flash the cwm-kitkatcompatible recovery . after you have flashed it , reboot recovery ( under advanced ) and you'll be running cwm recovery v6.0.4.5 . Then wipe data , cache , dalvik cache ( under advanced ) and then flash the rom . reboot system and you'll be running cyanaosp .
here are a few important links : CyanAOSP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2576407
P.S. : Report and feel free to ask anything and hope i helped ... do as i said and you'll be fine . All the best

its now saying cant mount efs
Did you bkup you're efs? Hope so. Why are you on twrp when he helped you to get to cwm and a working phone? Flash siyah kernel v6.0b5 with Odin tar or in twrp zip. Then flash alliance rom. BTW Have you tried to mount efs in recovery?

To root the s2 and install cwm.. Because the kernel and recovery are together on the s2 you just flash a kernel on firmware like 4.1.2 . So if you flash say philz kernel on 4.1.2 firmware you get custom stock kernel and root and cwm all from the one zip.
Edit.. Sorry about the link. Get 4.1.2 from Sammobile.com.

Hi, I can´t check CWM fleshable by Odin or ext SD card for my i9100. If I flash Kernel for my Stock XWLSD, can´t flash by ext card I don´t know why. Of course I have allreadey Rooted.
Thanks for help or :good:link for resolve my problem
Look for philz kernel. Read the thread. Understand it before flashing
