Can't Access Storage, no Rom Installed. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Long story short, don't have any Rom's installed on my Nexus,none on the card, can only get to Fastboot and Clockwork recovery, and can't access sd card as I can't get into Android, what the hell do I do now ?
Cheers

Use fastboot

Ahk, as you can tell, I'm not the greatest with this, I know how to use fastboot, but which img should I flash with it?

Hey, this is because the phone is not fully rooted I think. Are you sure the bootloader is unlocked and you have successfully rooted? If you go into rom manager can you flash CWM?

D'oh!
Can you try going through the rooting process again the way you first did it?
I had this recently and when I rooted again it worked fine but it was the exact same issue. Hope it works out for you.

There's no ROM on the phone at all so what would the OP be actually rooting??
To the OP, go into CWM and then mount the SD card so Windows can read it. Then transfer the ROM you wish to use and flash it as before
Or restore the backup you obviously took before flashing a new ROM

Can you mount sd in CWM? Does your Nexus have an SD slot because mine doesn't. Mounting usb in CWM never worked for me either.

Yeah as far as I am aware mounting usb in CWM won't work and never has. I also have never heard of or seen a GNex with an SD card.

LOL, I just answered this in another thread yesterday. You'll need to start all over by going back to stock Google images first.
Get the images here and be sure to pick the right GSM/LTE image:
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
Once you have the image, follow my steps in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447888
Finally, you need to install su again for root and flash CWM again.
EDIT: BTW, should warn you that doing so will wipe everything on your phone.

You could always download a ROM to your PC. Then boot your phone into CWM. Select Storages and Mounts. Then mount as a USB Mass Storage. Then copy the ROM to your phone.

Has this worked for you? I've tried it before but CWM always fails to mount. I thought it's because GN doesn't have a dedicated SD card.

There is so much bad information here..
This phone WILL NOT MOUNT AS USB MASS STORAGE, therefore MOUNT USB in CWM does not work :/
If you are EVER stuck in this situation, you need to use fastboot to flash stock Google images as per three posts above me.

I totally agree! I knew usb couldn't bemounted in CWM!!!Thanks for clearing it up.

If you can boot into CWM you do not need to use fastboot. Boot into CWM and ADB push a ROM into /data/media (your "sdcard") and CWM flash the ROM.
Here's my advice for people who want to tinker with their Android phones.
Learn these fundamentals:
1.) Basic Linux/Windows command lines
2.) ADB
3.) Fastboot
4.) Odin or other flashing utilities respective to your phone.
Troubleshoot your phone in this order (as available to your situation):
1.) ClockworkMod Recovery
2.) Fastboot
3.) Odin/Download mode, RUU, other flashing utilities

If that's the case then the mount options should be removed from CWM to stop confusion - I assumed it would connect as it does when booted

Nexus S doesn't have a sdcard, and it works on the NS. The reason why this functionality doesn't work in CWR is because Galaxy Nexus uses MTP and not USB mass storage. Therefore, it doesn't work.

CWM is widely distributed across many devices. They're not going to remove it and give Galaxy Nexus owners their own recovery if they don't need to. There shouldn't be confusion because this phone does not support UMS, and that is very clear. So "mount USB storage" obviously wouldn't work.

Phone NOT BOOTING UP NEED HELP ASAP

So my friend brings me his gsm nexus and is not loading up stays stuck and loading Google screen but does nothing from there..... I asked him what he had done and he said he went into cwm since he was having problems with his phone and decide to format everything on it sdcard/system/ etc etc etc..... I never done something so stupid before lol So I really don't know how to help him...... any way to be able to flash a stock rom maybe via odin ? or stock anything to get the phone to boot up again ? any help is greatly appreciated....... I could boot it up in recovery mode but since sd card is empty I can't restore any roms or any backups since he seem to have deleted them all
well your friend formatted the /system directory so there is no rom on there. of course it wont boot up.
follow this to go back to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
DO NOT USE ODIN.
also, tell your friend to leave the phone stock until he knows what he is doing.

Just trying to help a friend out or like you guys say me.... Just trying to fix a phone I was the one that rooted the phone for him... Just don't see the big deal.....

crap, did I just totally brick?

So, I was running cm10 on my galaxy nexus and I tried to upgrade to cm10.1. I was having some issues after installing gapps and figured I would reboot, wipe and try again. So I factory reset and wiped cache, delvik and system. Now, when I go into any of my folders on my sd in TWRP, I can't find either or restore or even my cm10.1 file! Did I just completely brick my phone, or is there anything I can do to reach the either my backup or a version of the cm10.1. I know they are somewhere on my SD, I just can't reach it due to the 4.2 filing system. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Ross
Sideload a rom through TWRP and adb.
If your device does anything at all its not bricked. Especially if you can get into RECOVERY mode. Why would they call it that if you couldn't recover from it?
They are probably in the /0/ folder now, but if you still cant find them try what xobx said.

No the /0 or /emulated/0 folders are in the /storage folder. You could try using the toolkit to flash a ROM for you or even flash a different recovery. CWM if you have TWRP or vice versa

I'm in the process of trying to sideload a rom. I'll let you know how it goes. I have to install adb on my mac and that's taking a bit. I don't have much adb expereience at all, so I'll keep you guys posted.
I'm not sure why everyone's so focused on a /0 folder. The first answer from 063_XOBX was the right one. Push a ROM to the internal storage with adb, boot into recovery, flash ROM.

I don't think it is hard bricked, you did nothing wrong, i think. Anyway, you could try to download the ROM (i think that you don't have it in the phone now) from pc and put it in phone in recovery, then try to flash again the rom. You can also try to download another sense 5 rom, like maximus (it works for me); in both cases, wipe all (except the sd) and re-flash the kernel. If it doesn't work, then go back to sense 4+ until someone finds out the problem. If i didn't understand well the problem, then sorry, but i hope i helped you.

Go to recovery, and from there mount usb storage. Put on back the desired ROM and start all over again.
To me this looks the easiest and the shortest way. Otherwise you keep on trying stuff, and perhaps non of them help. Just my 2 cents.

[Q] It keeps rebooting... recovery is not seandroid enforcement

Hi, I had the ROM DARTHSTALKER... and then I installed the Jedi elite to try a different one, but i wanted to go back to recover some messages of a girl, so I tried to restore the DARTHSTALKER backup from the ROM Jedi. It ended up in a loop, rebooting constantly... now I tried to UN-root it to begin from 0 and it keeps rebooting and telling me at the beginning in red: recovery is not seandroid enforcement and then some times if it loads, i says: optimizing apps... and then it says Finishing boot (it stays there for a while) and then the T-Mobil logo appears (it stays there for a while) and it reboot... After that it boots until it says: "process system isn't responding" and I have 2 options, wait or close, none of them work

you will need manually flash most likely the saberkernel green. Once you have it up and running, update your twrp. The older versions of recovery had restore issues.

An answer! Finally hope! I work with my phone.
Ok, but how do i introduce the kernel in my phone if when I plug it in the pc in download mode it seems to load but it doesn't load in My PC (the drivers are ok)
Is there anyway to install it from the pc using a program like odin? And what do you mean the old version? Which one do u recommend me?

Download the kernel .zip file and place on your sdcard . Hold down home+power+volup buttons to boot into recovery. Then flash the zip like any thing else.
Once back into the rom, use goomanager from play store. click menu and install recovery scrpit. Once done, it will ask you do you want to install twrp 2.6.3.7. yes you want to do this. Twrp 2.6.3.1 dn has known issues with the Note 3

But what I'm saying is that I can't see my device on my pc, when I connect it, it doesn't show, and I have the driver installed. It's like it's loading but it never loads

It's not going to. It does not have to time load the drivers for you to interact with. You will need to pull your sdcard out of the phone.

Oh ok, I have an external sdcard already, but how do I copy the kernel inside the sdcard without the phone?
When you made your backup, did you also back up the EFS.

I'm guessing he did not...
the kernel file is a zip file. Put the SDcard in your computer, download the file onto your SDcard put the SDcard back into your phone and install it using TWRp

I'm thinking to go tomorrow to Tmobil to see if i can change it, what a f..ing crap...

On here's what you do, as I had the EXACT same problem that you have. I fixed my brickloop by doing the following:
(I would backup your efs partition before doing this, just for completeness sake)*
Installed Stock firmware via Odin,*
Installed TWRP 2.6.3.2 via odin, rebooted to recovery
Did an "adb shell" when phone is in recovery mode to run commands via TWRP
From the ADB shell: Wiped the EFS partition with the following command:
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p12*
mkdir /efs
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /efs
(the last two commands probably did nothing, but thats what I did anyway)
Did a Factory Reset*
Then... reboot to system
Afterwards, no more boot looping, the phone successfully registered on the mobile network, and my IMEI is there and correct. Seems like the EFS partition can rebuild itself now I guess...These commands can also be ran from TWRP

Not to sound like a jerk...but this is the reason why companies lock down bootloaders and what not. You can fix this issue that you caused by following a few steps or getting an SDCARD reader for your computer and transfer the files to it that way. They are dirt cheap. It is not Tmobiles fault that you screwed up a flash. Just my 2 cents.

Can anyone resolve this!?!

I have a LG G Pad V50020d. Rooting is not an issue but the ability to flash TWRP is just not working for me. I have tried every guide possible. I have amended the runme file and things seem to go well but when I boot into recovery I get the fallen android and this message at the bottom of the screen;
"E:missing bitmap stage_empty
(Code -1)
E:missing bitmap stage_fill
(Code -1)"
Don't suppose anyone can help me? I just want CM11 on it.

Even the TWRP app believes it has installed the software correctly but I get no where. It is driving me crazy.

Have you tried installing when purely stock?
I will give it a go a again but I tried that last night. I shall unroot, and then revert back to stock. I may see if I can downgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2.
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Free mobile app
I have managed to install, using LG Mobile Support Tool, v50020b 4.4.2 firmware. Rooting is easy and but getting TWRP on to this device is killing me!!!
If you can downgrade to 4.2.2 successfully please post how you did it. That's what I'm trying to do. Thanks.

I think all you will need to do is find the kdz file and put the tablet in download mode (holding both volume keys while the tablet is turned off and plug it into the PC) and use LG Flash Tool.

Couldn't find anything that guarantees thats how its done. Is there a kdz file just for 4.2.2 or just one kdz file does it all?

I have just downloaded the v50010a 4.2.2 kdz file so I am going to give it a go now. Give me 30 minutes and I will give you an update.
That just put me in a boot loop so now going back to v50020b 4.4.2.
I have never known such an issue with installing TWRP. I have managed it with most Samsung phones, the majority of the Nexus line of phones and tablets, my LG G2 and I just wanted to do it to the tablet.
Unfortunately, spending as much time as I have on this has left me frustrated and tired.

Chris, I just came across this. when you get out the bootloop, try this LINK and see if it works. I'm gonna try tonight when I get home from work. So desperately want to go back to 4.2.2.

yeah. cause that's how I got it on there, if I remember correctly. I put it on my internal SD or external SD, can't remember, but then it was recognized and I was able to get TWRP 2.6 on there. Then I was able to update to 2.8 which I'm currently on.

You got me excited!!! I jumped for my SD Card, stuck TWRP 2.6 on it and booted in to Recovery. When I select update via external memory a yellow error appears at the bottom:
E:failed to mount /sdcard (Invalid argument)
I don't have any issues booting the device or using the SD card so I haven't got a clue as to what is happening with this thing!!! Head bang, wall!!
