Hello, All.
It seems I'm pretty close to bricking this thing so I thought I would ask you guys for help.
I'm not that experienced with this kind of stuff, but I was able to unlock my bootloader, and installed a custom recovery TWRP, using the Droid_Incredible_4G_LTE_All-In-One_Kit_v2.1 from hasoon2000,
It won't let me install a rom to the device. Been having some trouble with ADB as well. Seems like it won't recognize the phone when it's on the bootloader menu, but it will when it's in recovery mode. So using ADB i pushed a rom file to the device while in recovery and was able to get it on the sd card, but when I try to load the rom using TWRP it gives me an error msg. I thought that I might have to get rid of the old OS first before loading a new one so now I don't have an OS at all.
I feel like I'm missing something here, like I skipped a step or something... do i need to flash the kernel, or relock the bootloader? Confused as to why I can't load up a rom.
Thanks in advance for any help. Much appreciated.

before flashing a rom you should go into the wipe menu of twrp and wipe everything. Then install the rom zip. What error are you getting when try to flash the rom?
Sorry for the late response. I guess I don't really check my email without a smartphone.
Ok so in TWRP I go into wipe, and do Cache - Successful! Davik Cache - Successful! System: Successful! Factory Reset - Failed (and in the list it says:
updating partition detail...
unable to mount '/sdcard' a buncha times.
Then if i try to install a rom from the sd card it says
Failed
Installing 'external_sd/rom.zip'...
checking for MD5 file...
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found.
assert failed: write_raw_image('tmp/boot.img". "boot"
E:Error in /external_sd/rom.zip
)Status 7)
Error flashing zip 'external_sd/rom.zip'
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/sdcard'
E:Unable to mount '/sdcard'
I guess what makes no sense to me is that it can't mount the sd card. Does it need to be on the internal "sdcard" instead of the mini sd I have the file on? IDK so confused...
Thanks for you help.
Bug...
Hi, Ok auto kill is good but i have a real problem... I like reminders app that Google Keep vs Evernote, but i don't can use. I set the reminder note for tomorrow and when time is coming, i don't have any notification/ remained... Help me please!
I cannot flash most of the roms coming out in twrp, I keep getting an error about drive E. I have successfully flashed cm12 and jasmin, all others pose this error. Any ideas on what is going on?
I keep getting this error I think I might have wiped something I shouldn't have. I can still access SS(SafeStrap) but every install attempt ends with that error...please if anyone has advice on this or knows its bricked let me know so I can either switch to an old phone or go upgrade. I was having an issue with usb connection months ago while on the hyper drive rom so I decided to update to 21 from 20. When I updated the WiFi didn't work so I thought I'd go back to stock recovery, guessing the recovery file I had didn't work and now all I get is this mounting error. also system is not checked under mount through SS:crying:
Happy new year to all,
Im trying to flash a k5 a6020A40. Bootloader is unlocked by default and i have also check in dev. options the "oem unlocker". For every rom im trying to flash in recovery, i get "installation aborted" cause of the known error "E: failed to mount /sdcard". im trying the "dirty" installation without system wipe 1st and basically im trying to flash the DotOS v2.4 oreo.
is there any solution for that issue? Keep in mind that the phone does not even has sd card.
Ty in advance.
Update TWRP, change storage to FAT32.
Hi,
Long time back I had an issue with installing custom ROMs as Iwhile install I was receiving message failed to mount /system, somehow I have managed to fix that by myself and i installed flashable stock Pie ROM. Now when I wanted to install RevengeOS by mistake I choose Partition.zip from Oneplus rom and now I can't install anything else due to this error. I even tried to use Fox Recovery but didn't helped much.
Edit 1 :
When I tried to fix that following steps from internet I'm receiving error 7 for installing the ROM and error 1 for kernel. Also even when I fixed /system it's all the time unchecked and i can't choose it again.
Any suggestions how can I fixed that as i really forgot how did I do that long time back
Thank you,
Snip3rPolska
Does anybody know what can I do ? I have tried almost everything what I know and still nothing.. Don't remember what I did that time to fix that ?
