I've attempted to flash a newer version of cyanogenmod on my phone (10.1.3 to 11). I'm using TWRP 2.6.1.0
I can not boot because I've wiped the phone (dalvik, system, data, internal storage, cache), and I suspect the ROM I have is corrupted but I can't connect it to my computer and transfer the file via USB because I have no ROM installed and can not boot. I also can't take the SD card (since there's non) and put the file that way.
My phone is Oppo find 5
My root file flashing was successful, but installation of the ROM cm-11-20140204-NIGHTLY has failed. I assume the file was corrupted, but I have no way to find out what it is.
I now realize my mistakes, like wiping the system unnecessarily.
Is there any way to get another file on the device? any other suggestions?
Also, I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I was not able to find the right place. I apologize in advance.
Eyal,

Check that thread, set up adb and push a ROM to the internal sd of your phone via adb. You can use adb in recovery mode (I could in CWM, dont know about your recovry) so if you can boot into recovery, you can push the rom. (There is info on the thread about adb pushing/pulling)

Cwm has an option to mount storage to PC in mounts & storage menu
Check if twrp has the option
You can mount it that way:good:

hello.
Im trying to install custom rom on lenovo s860.
Everywhere everything says that put .zip on the sd card. I can flash stock rom with sp tool but the stock is chinese hell with all the crap UI and lenovo apps that cannot be unstalled.
Trying to install whole custom ROM.
(i've flashed many roms before with success)
I have twrp installed and everything. BUT this phone does not have sd card slot.
When I put the .zip into build in storage the twrp cannot find it anywhere.
Also I dont know if this is bug but twrp says "internal storage (0MB)"
Also I cannot backup stock rom, it says mount failed and thats it
edit #2, I have rooted stock rom, if I move .zip file to root or to any folder or anywhere. it just disapears after I reboot my phone, so even If I move the file into root and the reboot to twrp the .zip is gone
edit #3 I cannot access adb, I cant push files,
twrp says unable to moust /system, /sdcard /internal storage and all of that stuff.
I have googeled the whole fooking google and cannot find anything that helps

Hi,
I have rooted old phone Wildfire S. I used Revolutionary on this phone. Today I tried to refresh system on this phone.
What I did : Root to recovery, wipe cash, wipe data/factory reset, format sdcard, format all, change partition on SDcard, changed SWAP... (now I can clearly see, I was stupid moron... sry, about it)
Now my phone is emtpy. I can see only BOOTLOADER and Recovery menu. I don't know how to load installation package to my phone. How to load Revolutionary installation package to this phone and install it ? I formated SDcard in windows. I can copy files to SDcard and install from zip....
What I need to do, to install system to this phone ?
Thank you for your help.
Hi all, I need a little help, I've unlocked bootloader and installed twrp recovery (that's wiped data on the phone and I've reinstalled apps and accounts).
The guide i was following ask to reboot and boot twrp recovery (working) and to install magisk zip file copied from PC to internal memory
I copied magisk in internal memory (root and download folders) but in TWRP I can't see the storage i get from PC, only different folders.
I tried also adb sideload D:\Android\Magisk-v21.2.zip directly from PC but i get errors on mounted file systems yrying to install files i think, I tried to check and mount file systems in TWRP advanced options but I can't mount them ...
How can I install Magisk ?
Thanks for help

I don't have a temp folder, only Alarms, Android, DCIM...., Ringtones and Whatsup folders, should I create it ? Then i can see it in twrp ?
By the way upgraded twrp to 3.4.0.2
Tried to create temp but I can't see It obvously in twrp as the rest of the folders, only mounted filesystem is metadata
go in twrp to advanced wipe --> format data partition to ext2 --> wait --> when done format back to ext4 --> wait --> now see if your OS recognizes the USB android device. try usb replugging if not --> now you should see a new partion where you can write in your file explorer on HOST OS.

Ok since It is wiping data partition and I'm under mobile connection I'll do this in the next couple of days back home. Just to confirm, I can see internal memory partition from host OS without problems, I can copy files from OS to mobile. The problem is that rebboting in recovery TWRP I can't see FROM MOBILE that partition and folders, so I can't access magisk file I copied ...
With your suggestion do you mean that the new formatted partition is visible both in TWRP and OS ?

I found many and they are all similar...
- Unlock boot loader
- Install recovery TWRP
- Reboot in recovery (sometimes from phone other guides from image on PC)
- install magisk copied from OS from twrp recovery
Everything is clear except for I can't access the data partition from TWRP in the last step so I can't see the copied magisk file and I can't mount the partitions in TWRP (i get an error)
A couple of guides:
Root OnePlus 7T Pro (hotdog) and Install TWRP Recovery 3.4.0 (androidweblog.com)
Download Latest Magisk zip 21.2 and Magisk Manager 8.0.4 and Root your phone (getdroidtips.com)
In the second one they use the sdcard partition but I don't have sdcard on 7T Pro ...
You can point me to a different method if available to get magisk installed ...
Thanks for the help

so when you do as i said you are in twrp cos you booted to it. twrp will read and be able to access your phones storage. you are not wiping the data partion but are formating it to ext2 and then back to ext4 (still do backup as data will be lost). this enables twrp to circumvent the oxygen decryption / format. NOW and only AFTER THAT dont reboot (dont), but now your HOST can copy the desired magisk to the phone that is still in twrp RECOVERY MODE. Thus you can now install it with twrp since twrp can now access and read the recently copied image. anyways i wont do it. i used a patched magisk image. was the only thing that ultimately worked for a clean rooting and it didnt even unlock the /system_boot and /vendor partions but it works. find in the oneplus 7t pro guideds forum topic your corresponding magisk image and flash it to disk with fastboot flash boot magisk-patched.img. that worked pretty well when you use the right android version 10.0.x.etc.
actually, wtf do i know. i just followed this thread:
[Guide] How to Root OnePlus 7T Pro with TWRP
thanks for this detailed root process, I've been looking for this for around 3days. (my OP7t pro is coming today will try this root method)
forum.xda-developers.com
Clearly stated in the TWRP thread, decrypting OOS is not working. And I wouldn't even bother formating data.
In order to flash zip is TWRP you most execute;
"adb push magisk.zip /cache",
then in TWRP go into that folder and flash the file.
Or you can do patched image method, you can find guides in guides section.
Some basic researching would also help.

PERFECT thank you very much, got only a couple of warnings at the end:
failed to mount /system_root (permission denied)
failed to mount /vendor (permission denied)
But It seems correct.
I will check for patched image to better understand what is tha advantage compared to the standard one.

Those errors are nothing to worry about since it's not possible to modify those partitions on stock.
I tried rooting my lenevo tab M10 hd and flashed a incorrect boot img as I am new to rooting and bricked up my device then from some where I got the correct boot img and recovered my device but now I am unable to use its internal storage , its shows some random letters when I open the file manager can you guys help me out resolving this issue.
Hey, I've always wondered if it would be possible to just download a ROM on the phone I'm going to install the OS on, boot into TWRP, go to the downloads folder, and install the ZIP file from there. Would that be possible? Or would it require a SD card or to ADB sideload the file? (like I always do it)
Yes, this is possible, as long as TWRP is already installed. It doesn't matter how the file gets to storage, whether you download it through Android or transfer via USB. The only thing that matters is whether TWRP can decrypt your data (if encrypted) and whether the file is intact and not corrupted.
Once your device is rooted and has TWRP installed for your device and you have backed up your current working rom on an sdcard using TWRP, Yes you can download any rom for your device and install it from TWRP, Download folder
The install process for roms do not wipe your sdcard (phone's storage) only the system partitions unless they contain pit files which repartition the whole device (usually only when installing stock rom pit files included otherwise custom rom developer will list in the install instructions use external sdcard as whole phone will be partitioned but in the years I've been involved with custom roms this has never happened to date)
Hope I answered your question have fun and enjoy learning
