Hi all,
I've bought Le Max 2, which supposedly failed during OTA Update, and bootlooped. What I got, is totally Bricked phone with TWRP 3.0.2, which was already installed, when the phone arrived.
This would be no problem for me if the device mounted at least once. I am a native linux user, so the drivers were never an issue for me. However Windows 10 also doesn't detect the device in any mode (TWRP -> Mount, fastboot, ADB Sideload). It shows however "The device cannot be recognized" notification. In the device manager the phone is shown as "Unknown device (device descriptor cannot be read)". The Linux Mint 18.1 does not detect it at all.
I've also tried to copy the ROM on Vfat and ExFat formatted pendrive, but the pendrive's diode doesn't even flash once, so I doubt TWRP doesn't mount it due to wrong filesystem type.
I would suspect damaged USB-C port, but the device charges normally.
I've also noticed, that the system partition is formatted.
Another curiosity: when I try to mount /data from TWPR->Advanced->Terminal, it returns an error: device or resource busy - always. If I try to mount /system, it does it.
What do You think? Would it charge, if only one pin in the USB-C was damaged? That's my best guess. Or maybe is it software-related? Somebody deleted too many things from partitions?
I just do not want to buy new bottom board, and change it only to find out, that I didn't know something about this phone (Yaay! It's first LeEco in my mobile service! ).
It appears, that the bottom board / usb charging board was damaged. After replacing the device mounts as expected.
resolved it by flashing the cuocos fastboot rom and after that power off the device and attach the usb otg...and ur done this worked for me i hope it also work for you

Hi, people...
Just wondering if there is a way out of my situation, last night I installed the latest recovery image (RA-hero-v1.5.3.1), prior to that I put the latest Villian Rom on to update, but I think I messed things up, with some of the new menus in the Recovery rom as I accidently hits a few things :-(
Messages I'm getting are on almost every option I try is : E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0 (no such file or directory)
and
E:Can't mount SDCARD:/nandroid/
If I try any other options aswell I get "Error: Run 'bart' via adb" which is no good when I get the adb messages as for some reason my windows 7 pc has stopped detecting the phone in adb mode?!
The normal Hero bootloader get's detected fine in windows, is there anything I can do here to restore the system. I think some messages flashed by saying missing image! Which don't sound good.
Any ideas on how I can fix this?
if you have access to fastboot as you say, I'm sure you could fastboot recovery (just in case there's some weird issue there), then format the SD card and restore from a nandroid backup on your PC (I hope you took a copy of the backup on a PC).
Other than that, you might need to wait on someone like kendong2 to spread his words of wisdom here, as he seems good at solving stuff like this.

Thanks for the advice, my heart started pounding very hard when you mentioned about the nandroid backup being backed up! Luckily, I done an SD card backup a few weeks ago and found the folder, phew.
Sorry for being a little foolish, but when you say do a fastboot recovery how is this done in the bootloader, i'll search google in the mean time. To format my sd card im going to have to get usb adapter I presume as you can't format the SD card from bootloader? Correct me if im wrong.

Thanks for the reply. Nothing comes up at all anymore, I can't see any changes when I plug in the device under recovery mode, and even when selecting the USB-MS mode, nothing is detected or shown on the USB devices list. However, when I first tried originally it came up with the device not recognised.
Got to get myself a SD USB adapter first to format the card.... so I'll give that a try.
Ok, got myself a USB adapter to format SD Card, i've put my backup of everying back on. I now understand about how to use the fastboot command via command prompt etc....
Where do I go from here? What commands to type etc.. I've looked at the options but cannot seem to use flashall command succesfully.
The device is listed when typing fastboot devices, so I take it that's one good thing for a start!
Again, thanks for any help with this.
Just another question does the SD card have to be formatted specially? Ie partitioned etc... perhaps this is why I can't get it mounted under the recovery options. Because I accidently done one of the partion options and from then on I had all the problems.....
Hello,
Scenario: SGS2, KIES-updated HKI4 firmware (2.3.4), rooted
I have an USB OTG adapter I got from DealExtreme that works quite fine. FAT32-formatted pen drives are instantly recognized and properly mounted.
However, if I plug in a ext2 pendrive, Android says it is blank.
The problem, however, is that the ext2 partition is recognized as /dev/block/sda/sda1, so it is not mounted automatically. If I mount it manually, I can access the ext2 partition and use the pendrive as any FAT32 (with all the added benefits of an ext2 partition).
How can I make Android mount an ext2 pen drive automatically? What config files do I have to change?
thanks.
hii bro ... I have HTC wildfire s with android 2.3.5 ...but its not rooted... what do you think will It recognize fat 32 pendrive if I try to do on the go with it ... or do I need to root my phone ... any suggestion would be much appreciated ...
Most 2.3.x devices with USB OTG support will automatically mount FAT32 partitions without the need of rooting.
Actually, in order to mount other filesystems, one doesn't need root either. All that is needed is access to the console (such as Terminal Emulator) and give the proper commands.
1.hi im abrar i own a sgs2.....i hav bought a USB otg cable but when i try to connect a pendrive to it ......it says ahigh power usb device connected with a triangular symbol..........wat to do........??

Hi,
This is my first time rooting my HTC One (T-Mobile) and have managed to unlock my bootloader and install TWRP Recovery. Long story short, while attempting to install the latest Android Revolution HD Custom ROM, I seemed to have wiped my whole phone clean and don't even have an operating system anymore.
How can I get the Custom ROM file from my computer to my phone if I don't even have an operating system to boot into? It would be no problem if this phone had an SD card slot, but it doesn't . The only thing I can boot into now is the TWRP Recovery.
I have tried using the MOUNT option in TWRP Recovery, but to no avail. I have also tried to download HTC Sync Manager and the computer still does not recognize my HTC One. All I need is for my computer to recognize my phone and pop up in Windows Explorer so I can copy it into my phone's internal memory and use TWRP Recovery to install the ROM.
P.S. I am using Windows 8.1 64-bit.
PLEASE HELP ME! :'(
I am in the same situation, i have no operating system and can't access the internal storage.
How do I enable usb debugging?
USB OTG
Hi guys,
I just had this same problem. I formatted internal storage and had no OS at all.
I bought a USB OTG wire from Amazon. I put the ROM I wanted to install on a regular USB Drive and connected it using the USB OTG wire.
http://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-...e=UTF8&qid=1398213984&sr=8-2&keywords=usb+otg
In TWRP I went to the Mount function and unchecked all boxes except USB OTG. Make sure that's checked. Then, go to install and navigate up folders to the top level folder. Scroll down and the bottom folder will be called USB OTG. Look in there for your ROM.
Install and enjoy!
Now if someone could help me figure out why ADB won't connect: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727881
Hi There,
I'm attempting to recover the data from my adopted storage sdcard.
My phone is corrupted and TWRP is the only way I can access it, my usb port is broken has no data connectivity. I'm lucky that I can still charge it. The phone is old and not really worth repairing.
I've followed the instructions (https://nelenkov.blogspot.com/2015/06/decrypting-android-m-adopted-storage.html) on how to mount an adopted SDCARD in a linux machine. I found the /data/vold/expand_*.key file and used it to run the dmsetup command.
However the resulting block device is not decrypted properly, I'm guessing due to an invalid key (might also explain why the booted marshmallow can't see it either). TWRP mounts the device correctly, so the correct key is on my phone somewhere.
Does anyone know how TWRP determines what the key is for the Adoptable storage?
Thanks Heaps.
Mark
I discovered that I was using the wrong byte order for the key. Maybe the key is read differently depending on the native format of the CPU (I've no idea what byte order a HTC M8 is anyway) but reversing every 2 bytes of the key file has allowed me to mount my SDCard on a linux machine.
As title suggest I was rooted unlocked boot loader and accidentally formatted it the internal storage to fat32 using the aparted tool i clicked on the wrong partition and wiped the internal instanal storage card to fat32 it now refuses to connect hisuite adb fastboot you name it anyone know of a way to reformat the internal storage and get any type of recovery twrp or erecocery on there to restore an os partitions again .
I've got Linux as I heard Linux utilities c an reformat the partitions the real problem is when i plug the phone in it beeps meaning its connecting in hi-suite but nothing comes up I've tried to adb fastboot connect to the phone neither tool works any ideas?
The phone light doesn't show a charge light either and no screen comes up at all on the phone its blank despite the beeping meaning its still alive!
Button combos don't work the screen is totally showing nothing yet it still beeps on connecting
Please help as this is becoming a major issues not having a phone
Regards Muzzer

Tried dload forced method on windows 7 64bit the phone shows up as USB ser drivers are installed too even beeps on connecting someone know how to put an erecovery on there or twrp anyway to format the internal storage through adb or faatboot it won't come up as a device in Windows I use Linux too any ideas please
