i assume you have clockworkmod recovery flashed? rom manager did the same to me with froyo, i assume you know how to push a recovery from a command prompt? when you get the recovery error (After reboot) use the recovery-windows.bat command to push this recovery to your device and use that one to partition ur sd card
Thank's for the help but how do I do that? I haven't got a clue mate :/

right unpack the rar and copy to the root of your c drive, when rom manager reboots to partiton ur sd card and u get that error picture, connect your fone to ur pc, then open a command prompt as admin, type in the command prompt, cd c:/pushfiles_windows/pushfiles, then just type in recovery-windows.bat and your device shold show a recovery screen where u can partiton ur sd card
I get right to the end and get device not found :/
EDIT: Forget that did it in normal mode (not admin) and got it! Thanks

lol ok try this:
go here and download this recovery image - http://rapidshare.com/files/410520770/recovery-RA-desire-v1.7.0.1-R5.img
then go to www.unrevoked.com/recovery and download the recovery flasher, when you unpack the recovery flasher and that, look in one of the menu options at the top, one will let you choose a custom recovery, pick the .img u just downloaded and flash it, that one will let you partition ur sd card, if you dont like it you can always flash back

if you have apps2sd it will take a little time to load after you partiton your sd card, it only because the dalvik vm has to rebuild the dalvik cache on your sd card
If it's just partitioning you wanted to know about. Try partition magic live cd, works great for a fat 32 and ext 3/4, and swap partition.

Hi guys,
I've just partitioned my SD CARD through ROM Manager. Partition of 512MB and 0MB of SWAP.
After that I turned on the Desire and Went to the rom manager and tried to Flash a ROM. - this went unsuccesfully because the ROM Manager could see my SD Card.
So, in the ROM MANAGER I pressed the thing that gets you into the recovery mode, and there when i was trying to flash the room, if could see the sd-card again.
I tryied to restore, but it said that it has nothing to restore(first of all i've just backed up before starting, and even before that I had tons of backups).
I gave up the restore and restarted my phone, which also went unsuccesfully.
I've got into a restart loop where the phone turnes up till the opening page, has a little time of black screen, and than again-opening screen.
PLEASE HELP ME. ANYONE???
EDIT: I have just connected the SD CARD to the computer through a card reader, and he is almost empty! It has only 2 folders: .android_secure, .footprints, Android, LOST.DIR
what should I do?!
Maybe some1 can upload here all his SDCARD content and by that i'll copy it into my, and maybe it will work again
EDIT #2: NOW I'CANT ENTER THE RECOVERY MOD AT ALL!!!
it just stuckes on the with screen showing the HTC sign.
A partition will delete the contents of a sd card you should of backed up you nandroid first.... go to recovery mode by holding vol down and pressing the power button while the device is off, and choose recovery from the menu, clear the dalvik cache and see if your device will boot

I pressed the"wipe dlavik chache" and nothing happend..
and now i can't enter the recovery mode at all. great.....

Sorry for the ignorance, but what RUU is?, I really didnt get your post
Before rooting it's advised to check the original ROM running on your phone and get a copy of that RUU (ROM Upgrade Utility) so you can always revert back to stock if things go wrong. I assume you don't know what your phone originally came on?
Unfortunately you are write.
So.. is there something for me to do?
check this link with all the official RUUs and download one that is from your region or download the generic World wide english one (WWE)
its a utility that runs on windows and installs a fresh official ROM on your device

dude and where is the link?
*During the RUU installation it says to turn on my phone and do several things...

Try.
Try reformatting your sd card in windows first?
If you have ubuntu, you could use gparted to format it.
Or use another sd card.
Since you can access your sd card, download clockworkmod and the necessary files needed to root your phone, including a new rom. (I don't know how its like on windows as i use a mac so...)
Start the rooting process again using unrevoked. See if it starts up your phone.
If you can, flash the new rom.
Hopefully everything will work out.
P.S. What rom were you using before this happened and what version of rom manager were you using? Perhaps this might help other people.
First of all, I was using the newest version of ROM Manager and an Israeli ROM based on the LEEDROID.
but it all relays to the past, i got my phone back on track!!!
I found an old folder on my computer which included all my SDCARD content(I rememberd that i've backed up it on the pc once), so i copied everything to the SD, and than it let me into the recovery mod, and i had an old Nandroid backup.
EVERYTHING IS FINE NOW, THANKS EVERYBODY FOR TRYING!

Edit: i guess i was too late
hi,
i have just tried to install LeeDroid 3.0.8.2 and am panicked that i've bricked my phone.
I partitioned the sdcard using Rom Manager - also downloaded and flashed the rom via rom manager.
It seemed to do its thing fine and the leedroid screen loaded up, but now it just keeps looping back on itself showing me that its installing making this funny beeping sound and then goes back to the leedroid screen for maybe 15 seconds and repeats.
Anyone know ever have this experience? can any one help?
thanks
Please make a search...
The best way to avoid bootloop is first to partition the SDcard with Gparted...
Then you need to check a few things (your hboot version among others)
good reading !!!
If it's looping at that point it is almost certainly a problem with the SD-card ext3 partition. Rom Manager is not terribly reliable with making that.
The Gparted suggestion is by far the best solution (assuming you have a PC with a card reader, rather than trying to do it with card mounted in phone)
If you *do* have a reader then try LiveCD with gparted, burn to CD and boot from that.
Make your first partition FAT32, and your ext3 partition at the end of the card. (1GB recommended). Make sure both partition are marked as "primary".
Sorry for jumping in here, but I also need help with this rom (sorry uber noob and all). Figured since the thread was so fresh may as well ask here.
Basically trying to install leedroid v3.0.8.2 (data ++) for my original htc desire.
Cant download from either of the links, they both lead to url 404s.
And i also tried downloading from both rom manager and also the minisite, these downloaded but seem to be corrupt. I cant open the zip file and trying to flash it returns a cant flash (bad) message.
Anybody know where i can get a working zip of this version?

Have you tried here and choose the ROM you want from the white scrolling list? The 3.0.8.3 data version downloads for me.
Sprint Logo repeating and repeating on you? Mine was too, here is a set of instructions that even a n00b like myself can follow to fix that. We'll simply be restoring the system software/ROM on your phone. There are other instructions listed, but don't include step-by-step instructions.
Keep in mind that this requires bubby's recovery, which is the ACS version. You can not mount USB on other recoveries (yet).
Boot into CWM
(Hold down Power and Up arrow until it appears)
Connect your phone to your computer with the data cable
Go to mounts and storage
Then mount sd card
Then do mount usb storage (second to last option)
and download the files linked inside this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272186
unzip it into a folder in the following location on the root of the phone's sd card:
/clockworkmod/backup/(any folder name)
so it would look like clockworkmod/backup/folder/ (files)
This is IMPORTANT, it must be in clockwordmod, then backup, then ANY folder name. If you leave the files in just "backup" it will give an error no files found.
Then do a wipe your data/factory reset
Then do a wipe cache
Then go to the backup and restore menu
and then the restore, will be whatever you named the folder that you unzipped the files to.
Let it finish, choose reboot and you should be good to go!
If you want to avoid losing your data in the future, follow these steps to make a full system backup as often as you'd like:
go back into cwm, goto the backup and restore menu again
then press backup
You can keep multiple backups
Again, I take no credit for this, just passing along the information. Hope this saves someone else's day!
All the credit goes to kse91holydiver, he helped me, now I'm trying to pass along the instructions to others who may be in the same spot.
Double post ? maybe
Also, you have to be on bubby's recovery, which is the ACS version. You can not mount USB on other recoveries yet.

Going to repost I resolve my own issue, there are two things I did to finally get my pc to see my phone so I'm not sure which resolved, First which is what I think solved it was be sure you don't have a drive like and dvd-rom drive or flash drive with a assigned letter of E: or F: if you do Google how to change it. And the second thing I did was reflash with zedomaxV3 and let it restart to the boot animation automatically then I unplugged and pulled battery and put battery back in and plugged usb back in and boot to animation again, then restart and mount in clockwork mod.
I hope this helps anyone else.
I made a nandroid backup in cmw v5, installed AE mod rom, didnt like it, booted, and I got cwm v4? ...and my restore/backup file no longer exists.
I cannot unzip the files to the phones folder: /clockworkmod/backup/folder/ (files) because I dont have a folder understand name at all.
This is my first time rooting, Iam still stuck with a looping SPrint loop boot screen.
Any suggestions?

This saved my phone! I love you all!
OMG! Thank you so much! I had bricked my phone and this worked when other methods did not! It only took me 16 hours to research and try different methods. You are awesome! Back to factory so now I can hopefully find a good root and rom.
Boys and girl(s) ....
In this tutorial we'll learn HOW TO "format ALL" from recovery and flash clean and fresh new ROM
This is very easy job to do.
But as I received many PMs how to do this and (if you remember) that question was question number one on PAC thread - I decided to write this tutorial.
It's written for absolute beginners (I hate word noobs) and it's totally safe to do.
The most important thing is - do not rush, read twice and if you aren't sure in some step ASK
So let's go...
For this we'll need...
1) Computer
2) Working recovery
3) USB cable
4) Kernel with recovery and ability to mount USB from recovery (we'll need to copy few files from PC)
my advice - ICS kernel Advanced Stock Kernel or ELITE-Nozomi v2
5) New ROM and kernel you would like to flash
6) Few minutes
Before we begin to format our SDcard make sure you backed up all your files, pictures and other stuff you wanna keep.
Copy flashable kernel (see above - "what we'll need") to your device.
This procedure isn't dangerous but you are doing this on your own risk.
I will help you if you stuck somewhere but XDA or I won't be responsible if you damage your device!
Restart device, hold vol up to enter recovery
First off all we have to backup our ROM (if anything goes wrong)
Go to backup and restore and select backup.
While you're waiting, prepare new ROM and both kernels on your PC.
Now flash kernel
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Select Install zip from sdcard and find your kernel (Advanced Stock or ELITE kernel).
You are maybe wondering why I said ICS kernel...?
Because we have problems mounting USB from recovery in JB kernels (if you have one that work - great, use that one).
After you installed kernel, restart device to recovery.
be careful to restart to recovery, remember - now you have ICS kernel and JB ROM (I guess you use JB)
Mount SDcard
O.K, go to "mounts and storage" and select "mount USB storage"
If you see this screen
And "autostart" opened your device on your PC - that's good.
Open Xperia S folder on your PC, find folder clockworkmod - copy whole folder to your device.
If you have few backups you may open that folder (on PC) and delete folders with older dates -if you don't need that backup- copy that to test you have connection.
If copying went O.K you may proced
If not - find different kernel. (but if you flashed one of recommended you can't have any problems).
FORMAT ALL
Go to main screen (we are still in recovery) and select "mounts and storage" again.
And select, one by one
- format /system
- format /cache
- format /data
- format /sdcard
DO NOT RESTART DEVICE!!!
Don't restar device or you'll stuck without ROM and kernel and you'll have to use fastboot.
Now we'll use our ROM and KERNEL on PC.
Mount USB storage again.
Copy ROM and kernel from PC.
Unmount and...
Go to main recovery screen.
Select "install zip from SDcard.
Now we need our kernel (with recovery) which will be our new kernel. (you have already prepared new kernel, if you are 100% sure your new ROM has recovery in it you can skip this part and flash ROM right away - but be sure you have ROM which have kernel with recovery)
Find your kernel and flash it.
Restart device and go to recovery again.
Almost done - flashing new ROM
O.K...hardest part is behind us now...
Select "install zip from SDcard"
Find ROM you copied from your PC and flash it.
Restart and you are done.
If you are lazy, like me, restart to recovery and continue to read...
*** additional info ***
Remember, we saved and copied backup, we made, to our device.
Now we can use it to restore data.
Restart device to recovery.
Go to "backup and restore" and select "advanced restore".
Now select "restore data".
After restore is finished you can restart your device and boot android.
If you restored data from your backup you'll have all your apps and accounts already set up.
If not -settings wizard will start - just like when you boot your device right from the box
In both case you'll see your SDcard is empty and you have nothing but your ROM...
If you aren't sure in what you are doing - ASK and READ twice
If this tutorial helped you - hit tnx :thumbup:
One question. If we'll backup from old ROM data,wont it bring back all data,folders and and and.Even from uninstalled app's,old rom. All things from what I need clean my SD? Aren't they backed up too?

Yes and No.
If you restore your data you will get back some stuff but only apps and accounts details.
You won't get photos, pictures and your files.
Only apps and their stuff.
The best way is to do all from the scratch.
New ROM and installation of all apps you need again.
That's why I said additional info - only if you are lazy
For example, I have 5-6Gb of zips, png's and all kind of a craps, so I usually format all but restore data couse my ROM is clean. (I always have one backup - eXistanZ v2 absolutely clean, only with basic apps and all accounts already set... So when I need clean ROM but.with root browsers and apps I need I just restore this)

Is that for both LB and UB? Can I flash same kernel for LB?
artttur said:

Well....no.
You can't flash custom kernels on locked bootloader.
In case you have LB you have to find kernel for LB (stock) with recovery and ability to mount SDcard.
You'll have to search a bit and find out which kernel can do that.
I believe Advance Stock for ICS will do the job.
If you can't flash kernel, flash ROM with kernel and proced like you flashed only kernel, it's basically same thing only you'll have to wait longer for RIM to flash

Please read OP again.
That's the purpose of this thread...
To format SDcard!
That's why I said : prepare files (ROM) on your PC and check "mount" - basically, check could you be able to copy ROM from PC to device once you format all your data.
This thread is written for you to know how to format all and start from a scratch, so it's kinda silly question when you said "is a format of sdcard good idea"!?!

I would gladly help mate but I really don't follow what's happening in XS forum.
Try to ask on few kernel threads and I'm sure developers or one of users will help you.
Just ask is there recovery able to mount sdcard in that boot.img and you'll find suitable kernel.
It doesn't even have to be for your ROM, you just need it to format card and flash suitable kernel.
For example, you can use ICS kernel but make sure you don't try to boot flashed ROM before you flashed new kernel, kernel for your ROM.

Hey @artttur
Did you also Format your Xperia S SD Card with a Locked Bootloader?
If yes, For the flashable kernel with recovery(in Step 4),Did you use the ics kernel which you have pasted in the above post?
Also, for Step 5, I read that we can directly flash the ROM which installs Kernel with recovery in it...How did you do?
Do you know of any such ROM?
Sorry, I asked for help in xperia s Development threads, I didnt get any reply!!

If yes, For the flashable kernel with recovery(in Step 4),Did you use the ics kernel which you have pasted in the above post?
Also, for Step 5, I read that we can directly flash the ROM which installs Kernel with recovery in it...How did you do?
Do you know of any such ROM?
Sorry, I asked for help in xperia s Development threads, I didnt get any reply!!
Thanks...

Sorry, I didn't noticed,that You are on LB. And no i haven't try it on my device with LB , becouse of kernel. On LB You can't flash any custom kernel.
And if You can/know how to use flashtool ,You can try to flash this => http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...-jb-xperia-z2-style-rom-t2806247/post54271759 amazing ROM. Or do it as it is mentioned in this post.

How to format internal sd card in fat32?
Hi guys,
I'm having some problems with my girlfriend's Sony xperia S.
I'm tryn' to install a custom rom, so I unblock the device, rooted and installed cwm recovery v6.0.3.0.
All works fine until I try to "install zip from sdcard", cause when I select "choose zip from sdcard", it returns an error "E:Can't mount /sdcard/".
By a long search on google I found that some old cwm can't read sdcard formatted in ntfs and they need a fat32 one.
The probelm is that I really don't know how can i format an internal sd card. Windows did not see it as a storage like other disks, partition wizard also can't see the disk and of course from cwm I can't do anything on sdcard cause it can't access it. Can some one help me? I spent the whole day looking for a solution.
Thanks
great thanks

Don't do that....
Is it possible that you can't write constructive post to achieve ten posts?
This is not the way...
You are spamming the thread and lifting old thread to top pushing new and important threads down...
