[Q] HELP ME(CWM,ROOT Problem) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
My brother has the same phone(ConCorde Smartphone 5000)
Google play didnt work, so i factory reseted it, and then it still didnt work, so i rooted it and installed CWM, so i can restore my backup from my phone using .backup file on my SD card.
From here the device didnt turn on(the reboot screen got "stuck")
The CWM menu works, but when i try to apply update from SD card i choos sdcard2 and when i "click" on the update file it says installation aborted.
When I click on restore it says "No Sdcard"
I dont know what to do, cant even turn it on
Thanks for the help...,

[Q] SGSII Stuck on reboot - couldn't find external SD on CWM

Hi I was on the last step of installing Cyanogen Nighly build 116 on my SGS2 and got to step 7 of the guide on their wiki
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide
but I couldnt find my external SD card on Clockwork mod recovery. I tried to reboot back to my normal samsung OS so I could use USB to put the 2 update zip files on my internal storage but the phone is now boot looping. I boot up to the samsung logo then the phone restarts.
What do I do please?
Hi again,
I have tried booting in download mode which does nothing but show me the android man withthe word Downloading... underneath (VolDown, Home, Power). I have tried booting back to Clockwork Mod recovery (VolUp, Home, Power) and I have tried messing around with adb to see if it sees any devices- which it does, it sees
304D19A75555E24E
but it doesnt accept adb push update.zip I guess because the phone is busy rebooting :S
My guess would be you've installed a different version of CWM recovery. Choose "Install zip from internal Sdcard" instead.

Hi
It says Clockwork Mod Recovery v4.0.1.4
It doesnt have an option other than install zip from sdcard
and it doesnt see the external sd card either.
I have
- reboot system now
- apply update from sdcard
- wipedata/factory reset
- wipe cache partitions
- install zip from sdcard
- backup and restore
- mounts and storage
- advanced
- power off
I chose install zip from sd card
then chose zip from sdcard
and I get the internal listing of files on the internal phone storage but no access to the external sd card. There is a folder there called, external_sd but when I select it, it just says No files found. It shows this when the sd card is inserted and uninserted though.
Do you know any way I can put the update files on the internal phone memory from my PC? I have adb installed and the android sdk. but adb wont push files to the phone. I used to know a way to boot the phone with fastboot but dont remember how to do that any more
You need to tell it where to save the file if you're going to do adb push, i.e. adb push update.zip /sdcard/cm7.zip, but you might need to mount somewhere to store it in mounts and storage first for it to work.

ah but I cant get it to boot so I cant get it to mount. The closest I can get is getting adb to recognise it as a device while it is bootlooping (it only gets up to the Samsung logo then reboots)
I did try "adb push update.zip /sdcard/cm7.zip"
failed to copy 'update.zip' to 'sdcard/cm7.zip' : Read-only file system
The phone is still rebooting over and over. Out of curiosity, would CWM not give the option to install zip from the external sd card if the phone didnt have root?
I bought this phone from a friend and he said the phone did have root but I actually am not sure if it does. Would that also cause me not to be able to use adb to push the file because the internal sd card was read only?
Either way - how do I get the phone back to a usable state please?
I mean from within CWM recovery, which you said you can access (ADB should work there after 30 seconds or so).

booted to CWM - waiting for pc to notice phone exists so I can use adb...
... nothing is happening. (tried using mount usb storage too)
EDIT1: I rebooted CWM and when it came back - tada - windows noticed it. Ran the ADB command and the copy has worked over 36s.
Watch this space...
EDIT2: Got the phone to finally let me upload update.zip (the 116 nightly build from cyanogen) and gapps (for cyanogen7) using the mount option under Clockwork Mod recovery
installed update.zip
installed gapps.zip
rebooted and...
stuck at
Samsung
GALAXY S II
GT-I9100
/!\
``
nothing is happening, the phone doesnt boot... but CWM has changed colour to a pretty blue and I am now on v5.0.2.7. What am I meant to do next? I ran out of steps on http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II:_Full_Update_Guide
Flash the update twice in succession, if the first one was quick.

yes your right, it was quick. I flashed it again - much slower this time and it seems to be working - I finally got off the stuck screen. Currently watching the new cyanogen mod 7 boot screen.
Big thanksometer - if your anywhere near me i'd buy you a coffee.

[Q] Why can't I see SD Card from CMW?

While trying to install a ROM from my SD card with CWM I am getting the message "E:Can't mount SD card" I was able to move it internal and install the ROM but I'm curious why I couldn't do the same the SD card. The card does seem to be mounted correctly because I can go to ES Explorer and see the content with no problem. It only seems to be CWM Recovery that can't see it.

when i was watching the utube videos ( of Albert ? ) . . i remember he had to 'pop the card out and back in again', and then issue the 'read sd card' command once more .... to get it to cooperate . . i am sure i remember that. did you watch the video ?
If you are "rebooting" into recovery, the sd card will often not mount. Rebooting into Android also seems to have this problem. Simply removing the card and putting it back in will solve it for Android. I'm not sure about clockworkmod. I generally just power off and then manually boot into recovery.
I popped and put back in the SD card and now CWM recognizes. However I'm still having issues.
If I load the ROM NT_stock_1.4.0_Ribbon_Root_v2 (from the lavero.burgos thread) after it says that the install is complete I see this.
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
If I load the 1.4.0 stock ROM CWMrestore_1_4_0__plus_NTV16gbV4_6 then as soon as it says Installing update... I get
Installation Aborted
Something is amiss with my CWM
Which model do you have?

It's the 16GB Nook Tablet
Well the ribbon rom shouldn't be seeing that error. You're installing the zip file correct? Maybe download it again. Try another rom like cm7 of cm9 and see what happens.
As for the cwm restore rom, that is not a flashable zip. You need to extract the downloaded file, place it at /clockworkmod/backup/ (on internal or external)and then restore it.

With the ribbon ROM I tried to take it to a place with free WiFi (since the error with not being able to get past the B&N registration due to not being able to connect to my WiFi) and get a different error. It sees the WiFi and when I click to registrator it bails with a message at the bottom that says "B-bind error." So I came home and again downloaded the other ROM (the 1.4.0 called CWMrestore_1_4_0__plus_NTV16gbV4_6) and still get the same error with that one. So I guess my next play is to try a third a third ROM but I'm not too confident that will work either. I've cleared the Dalvik cache. Should I also try clearing any other cache? I'm afraid I may clear out something I need and already kind of have myself in deep enough.
Last resort would be to reimage from an SD card but I feel like I'm so close and there must be something simple to get me over the hump.
How are you trying to install the cwm recovery rom?
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
The ROM was installed by putting the zip in the root of my SD card, going into the CWM menu and using the install zip from sdcard option. I also cleared out the Dalvik cache as rcommended.
The recovery wasn't from a ROM but rather from a backup I did before trying the ROM install. It didn't work for whatever reason.
I've since punted (reimaged via SD card, rerooted and backed up again). The ROM failed again. Same thing where I can't get past the B&N registration page because beacuse my WiFi doesn't connect (Connted, testing). I did notice this time a b-bind error.
The one thing different is that my backup was successful this time as I can restore to the rooted 1.4.0 mode (WiFi works). So I don't need to start from scratch again but still can't seem to get a ROM installed.

[Q] S5830i Internal MMC Bricked?

I installed CM7.2 earlier today for my lil bro's S5830i, well I noticed there's some cache (Playstore download error, low internal memory issue) so I tried to revert back to stock ROM. After reverted with Odin, the phone does not recognize it's own SD card. Showing "Blank SD or unsupported file format", clicking [Format] button that pops up help nth either. Tried to go 3e recovery and click install .zip and it shown can't mount SD card.
What can I do? Tried few stock firmware doesn't help. Re-partition or not does not help.
Thanks in advance.

Try these may get success
Format Your SD card by using PC and then move necessary files which are needed to SD card
And then Check whether is mounting or not .
Format /sdcard never worked for me, format with your PC, use MiniTool Partition Wizard, the best !

[Q] HTC One S sdcard not funcctioning

Hello.
So theres is my problem. Few days ago I decided to install a new rom, so i made backup files with CWM 5.8.1.5 and copied to my PC (Windows 8). After that I downloaded "cm-11-20140206-NIGHTLY-ville.zip". When i tried to install new rom via CWM i come to the problem.
Problem is that that i can't install new rom, i can't restore my old files. What works on my phone now is only bootloader and CWM. I try to push files via adb comands but it's stucks, i mean it can be in this point fow hours and nothing...
Also, i now that i can't mount or format sd card. When i try it it is writen "error mounting /sdcard". When i try do factory reset it writes "error mounting /sdcard/.android_seure" and skips formating....
Please help me...
You also now that htc one s sd card is integraded...
I tried finding solution by my self , but nothing helped me what i found..

Galaxy 3 SM-T2105 Kids Tablet stuck in CWM Recovery mode, 4.1.2

So, I screwed up my kid's tablet trying to allow for more than just in-device storage because Samsung gave it a Micro SD port that it can barely use.
Anyway, I used Odin to install <recovery.tar.md5> from Zip folder: T210.CWM.6.0.4.5.recovery.tar
I had tried installing T210.TWRP.2.8.0.0.tar.md5 but could not get a successful restart.
This is the instructions I followed: (Ooops! Can't post outside links, yet.)
Installed Samsung USB Drivers and enabled USB debugging. (Had issues getting all the drivers to install. But had no problems with Odin).
Copied android-armeabi-universal-root-signed.zip to the SD card on the tablet.
Sent CWM recovery file via Odin.
Rebooted into CWM recovery
Installed from Zip on external SD
Rebooted again as "Android updated"
Initial Root check said not rooted, but downloaded SuperSU by _______? (can't tell at the moment) And then it came as rooted.
Downloaded App2SD and partitioned the external SD card. Had to use Format option instead of Create for it to work.
In APP2SD, selected something about Linking apps. A prompt came up stating to reboot into recovery and do 2 things which I quickly forgot.
Rebooted into CWM and have been stuck ever since.
Attempts to turn off the Tablet end up in a restart into CWM. I did discover that if you press and hold the Power button and the Home button, it will force a shut down, which gave the screen a rest.
I've used most wipe options in CWM, accept the dalvik cache.
When I choose "restore from /sdcard," the image "2017-08-22.16.41.29" results in "Checking MD5sums... MD5 mismatch!"
I was able to remove the MicroSD and add the android-armeabi-universal-root-signed.zip folder back to it. However, after installing this zip successfully in CWM recovery, it just reboots me right back to CWM.
In this adventure, I have used ADB to re-flash CWM but nothing changed. I'm brand new to all of this as you can tell.
I need to get this tab back in working order. What do I do?
CWM recovery gives MD5 mismatch on restore
OK, got a TWRP to work (T210.TWRP.2.8.7.0.tar.md5). Now, I at least have a factory reset, working tablet.
But there is still a backup file from CWM, right? The "2017-08-22.16.41.29"that results in "Checking MD5sums... MD5 mismatch!"
Any chance I could fix this error and get back some or all of my missing stuff?
Wrong forum im afraid...
Ever considered flashing stock firmware with Odin?
Read up on it Itll solve most of your issues
Which is the correct forum, then?
What I really need to know is how to link apps to my SD card. Or some other procedure that allows me to use SD as internal storage.
