hi
I ahve downloaded a pkg from dell and want to load the phone back but i am just getting errors
it says it cant mount the SDCard:Update.pkg
any ideas ??
This is the wrong section bro. Are you using the stock recovery?
Sent from my Dell Streak 7 using XDA Premium App
If you are trying to install from recovery rename the package to update.pkg. This will wipe all your apps and settings.
You must use stock recovery to install a .pkg file.
You may need to flash the proper recovery first.
See: Radimus’s Universal Guide to Flashing a ROM
Note: if you downloaded direct from Dell tapping on the download complete notice in the notification should start the update process.This will update without wiping your apsp and settings.
followed that guide and when it should be installing from SD i get the following
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(no such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.pkg
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(no such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
sorted now, that guide sorted it, but had to change SD Card it was not working in the streak but was ok in the PC.......
anyways... I have never been so happy to see the O2 screen in my life

I had same problem with SD today. Windows PC doesn't format card correctly for phone. Remove the external SD card you are currently using. REPLACE WITH CARD THAT WONT WORK. Reboot phone until it will reboot completely. Go to SETTINGS==>SD CARD & PHONE STORAGE==>UNMOUNT SD CARD==>FORMAT SD CARD. Card will now work in Streak. MAKE CERTAIN YOU DON'T FORMAT THE CARD THAT IS WORKING!!!!!
I've had this same problem, I can't flash anything. I've tried to flash 1.9.1, because I only have 1.9, and I get the same error. I -have- tried changing the name. Doesn't work. Can anyone give me a complete step by step to fix this?
i got it solved
so... this is how it's happened to me.
when i reboot the streak after i fastboot flashed the streak with streakmod recovery, the recovery will be back to stock recovery. so... i have to delete install-recovery.sh from /system/etc to prevent the streak reinstalling the stock recovery, before it succeed to boot android OS.
so i flashed to streakmod recovery and reboot it to go into recovery mode and plan to choose "update from sdcard".
and when i tried to choose the update.zip from sdcard, there's error message:
"can't mount /sdcard"
so, i think that maybe because my sdcard was plugged into PC and got 'half-mounted', so recovery can't mount it.
so i powered it off, eject and re-insert the external sdcard again, powered it on and go into recovery mode, choose the superuser.zip to root my streak... AND... TADAAAA.... i'm all rooted
when i tray to mount from usb in the recovery
i get this message E: unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory)
how can i fix it?
someone plz also when i tray to do mount to sdcard is says
error mounting /sdcard
it works fine from the rom.
My first guess would be that you don't have a microSD card, and you're using a version of CWM recovery which refers to the internal SD card as, wait for it, "internal SD card". If not, what kernel are you using? It could be one which does not support mounting of the internal SD card from CWM recovery.
you probably right so how can i mount from usb? or change it?
i use cf-root karnel
What version of CWM are you using is the question .
jje
cmw v5.0.2.7
Flash with CWM and root kernel not version 5 .

i cant understand you, how can i do mount usb from the recovery
(how can i put files from my computer when i am in recovery mod)?
What are you trying to achieve .
Copy files from PC to Phone or Restore via CWM Recovery or flash a CWM rom .
jje
i am afraid that i will flash a rom and it will fail, and then i will only have access to the recovery.
then i wont be able to transfer the nand backup from my computer to the phone because i cant mount usb in recovery mod.

Hi i flashed CWM Touch from Axel and there is a problem...
I cant acess the Install Zip from sd card it says:
E: Error mounting sd card!
So is there another way to flash older recovery? Or any other wayy?
Please help me!
you should Flash other recovery from ODIN ^^
Grab the CWM5 zip file and flash it.

Sure there is try mount sd card before flashing anything,
if that doesn´t do the trick your olny option is flashing from ODIN, i can get you the stock recovery but since is need to be flashed from sd card i don´t know if that will do ...
