Ok I got a EKB311 box its a RK3188. I wanted to install a newer Custom rom so I began by trying to backup. I managed to install CWM for RK3188 generic with arctools. CWM booted fine but when I go to make a backup I get an error saying cant mount backup path. so I tried backup to external SDcard it says Error while backing up boot image. I then decided maybe I could do a factory reset to fix this but it wont do a factory reset in CWM or in Android. Im not to familiar with the different CWMs
1. I need the newest CWM for RK3188

Stuck in CWM ! NO ADB

This is my first time rooting my device and all that, I'm still a noob and forever will be.
anyway I followed the normal steps where you download Odin and everything went fine and my phone was still working now I had to update the CWM version to 6.0.4 or something so I downloaded the Kit-Kat compatible zip file and upgraded the version to what I wanted it to be.
Now I read in one of the steps that I need to backup my files and so I did but now I can't recover it and my phone doesn't turn on I'm stuck in CWM I can still see my files on the phone and when I restore it does name the files I already had but my phone does not work just goes black ...so either CWM or a black screen.
My PC does not recognize the phone, Kies doesn't either.
Did I nuke my phone?

i can't understand: are you able to access CWM (using the three button combination) or you can't even turn on your phone?
If you can access CWM, go in "mounts and storage" and select "mount USB storage", then connect your phone to the computer and see if it is recognized

Never mind, I figured it out, thanks anyway
Hi all,
I am in the same situation, but can't figure it out.... I wanted to upgrade to Kitkat so I downloaded Supernexus 4.0 but the install from zip fails everytime I attempt it.. So I'm stuck in the CWM and I don't have a backup ROM to install...
I checked the md5 sum of the ROM, it's ok.
I wipe the /data partition, the cache and the dalvik cache before installing from zip..
I installed the last CWM version (v6.0.4.5).
I don't know what to do next because the only ROM I have in my phone is the supernexus 4.0 which cannot be installed and I cannot mount my phone using "mount USB storage" in CWM, my PC doesn't see the phone mass storage..
Any idea ?
Thanks,
Hervé

Always keep a working kernel/rom .zip in you internal memory so if you are stuck you don't need to use Odin!
Try to use another USB port or another computer to see if it is recognized, or if you have a MicroSD load a rom on that and insert it in your phone.
if not, you have to use Odin and flash a kernel or rom using the pc.

[Q] Stuck on ClockworkMod Recovery on Asus TF101

Hello,
First of all, I'm new in this forum and I don't know if it's the right place to post this question
I've been through many researches on the web but I couldn't find a clear answer to my problem,
If someone has the resources to help me I'd be glad
So my problem is:
I wanted to install KatKiss ROM - Asus TF101 from this very forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2592890
And I've started to follow the information given on the page : (if important I use ClockworkMod Recovery v3.1.0.1)
Backup everything !
Go to recovery
Make a full wipe / factory reset (you can skip this step if you're already on KatKiss-4.4, if ever you encounter a problem do the full wipe and try again before reporting )
Format /system
Flash the rom
Flash optional kernel
Flash gapps
Wipe cache/dalvik
Reboot
So I went through the first steps.
I made a factory reset (not with CWM but on the Android settings)
I didn't watched but I think it went ok.
When the Pad booted I couldn't access anymore to the real Android,
but I thought it was due to the manipulation I was doing
So to be sure the previous process wen well I made a full wipe/factory reset with CWM Recovery
I put all the zip files on a SD card that I put in the device,
I can access to the files on it
and as instructed I installed
KatKiss 4-4-2_023c.zip
KatKiss 4.4_AddOn_TF101G_Kernel_01.zip
gapps-KatKiss-4.4.2_20140221b.zip
When rebooting I couldn't acces anything but CWM.
Well I came to ask, what should I do, what should I check, what I shouldn't do?
I've tried to use the function Restore, because when I installed CWM I made a backup as instructed, but it seems to fail when I want to restore.
In need for answers, I thank you in advance for any piece of advice.
Since I got no answers I tried by myself some stuffs
I installed CyanogenMod 9.1.0-tf101 (only problem I can't connect to home wifi :good
I can access to the desktop of the tablet now (that's nice!)
But I have still some problems for which I'm looking answers.
In my reserches in found that the biggest mistake I made was to install Rom Manager (5.0.2.0) to access CWM
(Well, i'm a rookie...)
Now my best wish would be to run the tablet Katkiss 4.3 (i've seen that there were some compatible version for my TF101)
- How can I manage to get rid of Rom Manager ?
- How can I replace CMW by TWRP ? (It seems to be way better than RomManager & CWM)
- How to install
I don't understand all of the technical terms, Kernel Roms Drivers Flash Cyanogenmod Katkiss RomManager CWM TWRP what does what, i'm kind of lost, if any good samaritan read this I'd be so happy to have some advice of what I should do or just show me the path to some places where i can find specific answers i'd be glad..
System Info :
- Android 4.0.4

[Q] [URGENT] HELP! Karbonn Titanium S5+ plus CWM CUSTOM RECOVERY WENT WRONG!

Hi. I own a Karbonn Titanium S5 Plus/+.
I was looking to install a stock 4.4 ROM. So I rooted my phone with rootmaster (I do not own a PC).
I download some unofficial CWM for my phone from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2634569.
when Backing up from custom recovery it says Can't Mount/system.
my biggest mistake is that I did not Backup original recovery.
I even went to cyber cafe and tried this method of flashing stock rom of my phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2718505 But it didnt work at all.
So my problems are :
1.I cannot Factory reset my phone.when i select factory reset from settings, it boots up in recovery.when i select factory reset from recovery it doesnt change a thing.
2.My phone has a update . when i try to update,it again boots up in recovery.I tried updating from update.zip but it gives STATUS 7 Error.
3.Again due my stupid mistake of not backing up while changing the boot animation I am stuck with a custom boot animation. Is there a way I can revert it back to original.?
The company's website does not provide stock rom its devices.
Is there any way that I can bring my phone back to full Factory State (Without PC)?

Help, no longer able to flash system nvidia shield tv

Hi all, well I think I have all but fubarred my 16gb shield tv. I unlocked bootloader, installed twrp and rooted, all was working fine. Then I decided to flash the full android rom that is on the forum . before doing so, i used twrp and made a backup. I installed the full android rom, although it seemed to work fine, i was not crazy about it and decided to go back to the original OS, so I booted up in twrp and went to the restore function, there were no backups to restore , I guess when I installed the system img for the full android it erased my backup somehow. anyway, moving right along, I next went to nvidia website and downloaded the restore image for the 16gb shield tv, i booted in to bootloader and was following the instructions to restore the shield. all seems to go fine until I try to flash the system img, then I get the error "invalid sparse file format at unknown block 0000" it tries to continue but fails, afterwards the system will not boot at all, I can get back to twrp recovery an flash the full android rom just fine, but am not able to flash back the original os without that error. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, as I am stuck at this point as what to attempt next. thanks
here is a pic of the errors i get, any help appreciated
