you have to use xdatools to flash the sd with the image you cant just copy it to the flash
when you have don that and enter the bootloader it should automaticly

[Q] no os installed !are you shure you want to reboot

rooted my phone sgn2 and installed twrp downloaded jelly thunder blackout to my sd card fowllowed steps,dalvc wipe,cache wipe ,wipe system and then i flash jtbo rom and it failed. i got a bad download and im not shure what to do.any help would be appriciated . and i have every thing backed up.
If you made a Nandroid before flashing just restore it. If not and you have an external sd card shut down the phone and remove the sd card and use a computer to dl a rom and put it on the card. Put the card back in the phone and boot directly into recovery and flash rhw rom. If you dont have a ext sdcard then there is probably a way to adb push a rom to the internal sdcard with a computer but you'll have to google that one, , I'm a little rusty on adb. Another option is trying to reboot to bootloader and flash a stock rom with odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...ter - [ATT / Bell / Telus / Rogers / Sasktel]Link for odin instructions and roms.

sometimes you just need to reboot back into recovery. Just last night after wiping with TWRP I got "Failed" message when trying to flash the best international stock ROM. I simply reboot the phone back into recovery and then it flashed fine.

I'm stuck in CWM Recovery and or download mode

I tried flashing cyanogenmod 10 and I got (status 7) I already wiped my phone so I have no ROM
advice on what I should would be appreciated.
If you have an external sd card, you can put whatever you want to flash in there try again.

Of indeed you DO happen to have a micro sd card, when you put the rom/gapps on it, place this on it too. It's the most recent cwm touch recovery. Flash it, reboot recovery and flash your rom/gapps with no problems.

If you DONT have a micro sd card, you can put the phone in download mode and flash stock via odin from your pc

[Q] Can't flash from ext sd

I haven't been able to flash from ext SD card and whenever I boot into recovery I get a green and purple staticy screen. After I try to flash a file it just exits and reenters the recovery and I reboot back into my current ROM and the file says its not readable even though it was before attempting to flash it and I've reverted to stock with RUU and flashed the recovery again and still doesn't work. Should I just format the sd card

I SCREWED UP!! Deleted the Zip file, internal storageand backups!

Guys! I screwed up bad! An amateur mistake! After thinking about trying a rom, I factory resetted my device along with the internal storage where I stored my zip file and my backups.....now I have a SMT320 with no OS. Help?? Anything will do! I don't dare booting up my device as it will go in a bootloop or may even hard-brick.....I need some serious help here!
try using hotkeys (home+vol up + power,I think) to boot straight into recovery when the device is off.
Yeah, I can do that but my files aren't showing up.....all I did in the recovery was factory reset,wipe data, system and cache and then when I tried to install the rom, it didn't show up. I think It is because I formatted my ad card before for the device and pretty sure the rom is in that.....pls help

But my files are missing, read my last post
Connect it to a computer when in TWRP recovery. The internal memory should show up so you can transfer the zip file over.
dont worry. if you have twrp you can install install any custom rom.
download custom rom+gapps via opengapps. com to copy to your sd card.
put it in your sd slot in tab pro, boot in twrp, tick install, tick sd card storage, then install rom and gapps. done.
or you can flash official rom via odin. how to do it check forum or mail me to pm and i will help you step by step

[URGENT] Formatted data partition from OrangeFox, now I have no ROM images in system.

Formatted data partition from OrangeFox, now I have no ROM images in the system. After booting into fastboot, phone doesn't show up in Windows, so I can't copy any ROM file from PC to phone. Please help.

You can use a fastboot image (HERE) or copy any rom onto the SD card from pc.
I cannot browse the phone's filesystem in any PC. So I cannot copy any image anywhere. I need to access my filesystem.

Can you remove the SD card from your phone?
Can you browse your SD card from recovery?
You can install orangefox again from fastboot and boot in recovery and transfer any ROM on phone and install ROM or install miui from fastboot. This is not that urgent you just removed ROM and you can install just fine new one. You should do research before making that mistake that formatting will remove everything from your phone.
