Hi there
I accidentally formatted the /sdcard, /system, as well as /cache partitions on my device. When I connect my device to my computer in fast boot mode, nothing comes up, it does not get detected and when I connect it after its switched off, it shows device not recognized. Please help me, I really need my device working ASAP for my project work.
Thanks in Advance
If you have adb drivers setup you can adb push a ROM in a custom recovery.
To add to the statement above. Here is the process.
Mount /data under mounts and storage in recovery.
Run:
Code:
Adb push name-of-rom.zip /data/media
Then unmount and it will be on the root of the sdcard.

when i connect my phone to the pc, i get a "USB Device not Recognised" pop up. The adb as well as fastboot do not detect the device...
from a linux user:
- open device manager, connect device (which should be in recovery), when you see it on device manager, right click on it, update the driver manually to the ones found in Dev section.
right?
I had to get the drivers from the Samsung site because the auto update driver function didn't work for me.

I formatted the device and sd card...I tried restarting and it would not load into the ROM anymore. (It was previously working) I messed up by formatting them both...
I was able to get the TWRP recovery installed (I am rooted) via the KF Utility. Now I am trying to mount it via TWRP with Mount > Mount USB Storage. If I can do that I can put a ROM on it and reflash a new one. However when I click "Mount USB storage" it goes to the screen "Unmount" but nothing pops up on my computer. I checked my Computer and there are no usb storage devices that pop up on my computer.
I installed the KF driver from the KF Utility folder that it comes with. I can't get it to mount...PLEASE help me!

The KF would show up as a Android Composite ADB Interface under Android Phone. If you don't see that try installing the drivers again from the KFU > Drivers directory. Either dpinst32.exe or dpinst64.exe. If they won't install because of an error you need to find what the driver is installed as on your system, then uninstall it and reinstall dpinst... and you should be good.
If you havent got it fixed make sure there are no checks in the boxes of system and data then mount there should only be checks in cache and sdcard
Also having the same problem...

Have you figured it out yet? I'm having the same problems where I attempt to mount through twrp and nothing happens on my pc.
I have Glazed ICS
It's odd though... when I connect while booted my kindle shows up as a galaxy, it's only when in twrp that it appears as a kindle/android adb device
Reinstalled the drivers... ect, nothing...
Any other suggestions anybody?
For some reason, formatting the sdcard in TWRP breaks its ability to be mounted via USB and must be mounted manually and formatted via your computer.
Open your CLI and prepare to send adb commands:
Code:
adb shell
echo /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 > /sys/devices/platform/usb_mass_storage/lun0/file
You'll get a dialog saying the drive needs to be formatted. Choose quick format, FAT32, block size 4096
Be damn sure the "mmcblk0p12" says "p12", not p1 or p2, or you will be performing a little "surgery" on your device to fix it.

Alright, I'm going to be rather noobish here and I'm incredibly sorry about that...
Win7 64, Kindle Fire rooted to Glazed ICS
I'm going to go through all the stupid questions at the beginning... should I have my device booted regularly or in TWRP?
In TWRP:
devices doesn't show up in adb devices
In Regular Boot:
My devices is showing up in adb devices...
after opening cmd and starting amd.exe I enter amd shell and nothing happens. cmd goes to the next line and sits there (wont let me do any kind of input)
From searching and reading I'm suppose to get a $ symbol yes?
(What it looks like)
C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb shell
_
No. In Unix based systems (OSX, Linux, Android), the root prompt is a "#" I have no idea what it is for Windows.

Alright, so I've been working for two weeks to get some kind of shell prompt and have been unable to get it.... Any ideas as to why I'm not able to do it?
My first suggestion will always be to eliminate any possibility of Windows errors and set up a Linux LiveUSB. By doing so, you can rest assured it isn't the computer itself causing any unnecessary difficulties.
If your shell is messed up, the way to fix it is by reinstalling the ROM. Just be careful doing so, because if you accidentally forget to wipe the necessary partitions and it prevents the system from booting, you'll likely be looking at getting a factory cable before you can move any further.
Linux is very stable but it needs to be configured before it will work with adb and fastboot. Soupkit will do that for you very easily. Just remember, the device itself plays a big role in whether or not adb or fastboot will connect. If that's the case, you may have to look at other options.
I have the same problem... the biggest problem is when there is OS the kinlde fire adb driver was different from in the recovery I went to my computer device manager and It have amazon kindle fire2 unknown and Linux storage G:\ different from the old driver is google USB or amazon kindle fire USB and the storage is diffrent too and I can't delete the old driver either... need help how can?
Hi there,
When I wanted to erase my sdcard I did format /system in CMW. This obviously removed my ROM so my Nexus is stuck at the Google boot logo. I don't have any ROMs on my device so I know I need to push one with ADB while mounting the system and sdcard in CMW, but whenever I try to mount the USB storage it says: E: unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory)... So when I try to push it says: error: device not found.
I installed the driver with the GNex toolKit but when I do "fastboot devices" it doesn't see my device... Installing the driver with PdaNet also fails when setting up network driver.
I don't know what to do now
sigh... you can never mount USB storage as its not available on the nexus line
you need to use adb in the custom recovery
adb push locationofzip /data/media/

It still says, error: device not found. I think it has something to do with the drivers. (I'm on windows 8 by the way)
you need to make sure your adb drivers are installed correctly.
The problem seemed to be Windows 8. Used a laptop with Windows 7 and now it works.
Hey guys,
So I'm an idiot, and I formatted my internal SD card, my data and my system, forgetting to re-flash a new ROM before rebooting, and needless to say it won't boot. I was running CM 10.1, and it loads until the Galaxy s3 logo, with the CM dude chilling, and does not go any farther.
I can get it into DL mode and recovery mode, however in recovery mode, I am unable to mount my sd card. I do not have an external SD so I'm unable to load from that. I also don't have access to a strong internet connection, so I can't download a stock image and use odin.
I planned on using ADB to sideload a zip to install, however I can not get my computer to recognize my device. It did not have USB debugging enabled, as I had reset it to factory settings ahead of time. When I use device manager, it can not locate new drivers, and says no driver is installed. I've tried downloading samsungs drivers, but they don't seem to install properly.
If I leave it at the boot screen, it IS recognized by ADB, however nothing can be done, as it's not booted, or in recovery mode. I'm not really sure what else I can do other than waiting until I'm able to download a stock image and use Odin. I'd like to be able to sideload with ADB, but I can't figure out how to get my device to be recognized while in recovery mode. I'm using CWM 6.0.2.3.
Hopefully someone can shed some light!
OK if I can recall (since I only used CWM a couple times) there should be an option to mount your storage via USB in recovery (both internal and external SDs). Try doing that and see if it works.
With out USB debugging turned on, in my previous experiences, I was also not able to use ADB at all.
So if CWM mount doesn't work, I think you're either going to have to wait to flash thru Odin or buy an external SD to flash a ROM from there.
Glad to see someone speaks XDA from all the Q's being asked lol

If you have an OTG cable, you can use that to access external memory, instead of a microSD card.
If adb can communicate with the phone at the boot screen, can you adb push the file you want to sideload, or is the phone not writable?

It recognizes it however it says its offline.
Hey guys i'm in serious trouble with my phone.
It stucks on boot screen and does nothing.
I can boot into TWRP, but i deleted the LineageOS.zip from sdcard to save space. When running TWRP, i can't see the phone in my adb prompt. I can see my phone when adb sideload is running. I tried to use adb sideload, but it fails with something like 'the zip your are trying to install is for zl0,zl1...but your device is .'
I need some way to push the LineageOS rom to sdcard without adb connection available. There is an option in TWRP to mount an USB Device, would it make sense to buy a little USB type C stick ?
I apprechiate any kind of help !
1. Check is the phone in TWRP avaiable in Windows file manager. It should be.
2. If not go in TWRP to sideload and try to "adb push FILE-IN-WINDOWS FOLDER-IN-PHONE" eq "adb push rom.zip /sdcard/0/" (if your ROM is with name "rom" in ADB file).
3. If not try to wipe all exclude OTG.
4. If not try to push trough OTG (if you have OTG then do it firstly).

Unfortunately the phone isn't visible in Windows, neither in TWRP nor Sideload. I tried to push in sideload, but that doesn't work (adb: error: connect failed: closed). TWRP FAQ says that there are no adb commands available in sideload.
I just ordered an OTG stick. Let's hope i can mount him in TWRP.
Anybody other suggestions ?
Try adb commands in fastboot... ? Doesn't have to be visible with device-info

Okay so if you already have Twrp installed that's Great. that's your recovery, don't lose it. Be in the habit of rebooting to Twrp whenever you flash something.
The only way to resolve this issue is to format the storage.
You have an easy options.
Buy the OTG adapter...Yes get it, it will make flashing ten times faster and alot easier to quickly flash a file if you find yourself in a bootloop.
The OTG Adapter will cost about $5
You should also buy a 32 usb 3.0 drive. I bought my 3.0 usb at Walmart for $12..
After formatting the sd storage> Click select storage > choose USB drive> add your ROM> click add more zips > add Gapps, and Magisk > Flash.
Reboot to recovery> make sure to check boxes for TWRP installation recovery and system app.
Once reboot to recovery > click "select storage"
Click Wipe > select Advanced Wipe> select Cache ( only cache) > Slide to wipe
Reboot to system > Done.
First boot could take several minutes
Good afternoon, I need help in TWRP mode I can not mark usb-otg in mount.
My terminal does not have a rom because I mistakenly delete all the data.
My idea was to put the rom in a pendrive otg and intalarla from TWRP but I can not check the corresponding box.
In Fastboot mode either since my pc does not recognize the terminal, I have tried all the ports of the pc and all the cables that I have.
The drivers are well installed and adb and others work correctly.
I need your help, since the phone works very well and I changed the battery recently.
Thanks in advance.
can you mount mtp in twrp? perhaps you could try loading a rom from your pc to your phone via adb sideload in twrp.

thanks, there is some tutorial to do this. I'm pretty new in these things
to mount mtp, boot twrp, then go to mount. there will be a button on the bottom right that says enable mtp (if mtp is disabled) and tap it. if mtp is already enabled, the button will say disable mtp, so you don't have to do anything here. just plug your phone into your computer and see if it gets detected. if it doesn't get detected, again try the different ports on your computer or switch cables.
once your phone is detected, you have 2 options.
1) mtp allows files to be copied over from your pc to your phone while in twrp. so you can just copy a rom file into your internal storage and flash normally.
2) you can also flash the rom through adb sideload. first, place the rom in an easily accessible directory, such as directly on C:\. next, you can start adb on your computer by opening up terminal/powershell and typing
Code:
adb start-server
you should get a message saying adb daemon is now running on port xxx. next, open up the adb sideload dialog in twrp through advanced >> adb sideload, then swipe to start the service. just to be sure your phone is detected by your pc, type
Code:
adb devices
your phone should show up on the terminal with its serial number. now navigate to the folder where your rom is and flash it.
Code:
cd C:\
adb sideload rom.zip
make sure your phone doesn't get disconnected during the process of flashing.
I'd recommend 1) since it's a more familiar method of flashing.
Try formatting your Usb pen drive as FAT32, it worked for me. My pen drive was formatted as NTFS previously and twrp did not allow me to check box the "usb otg" option, but after formatting as FAT32 it worked like a charm.
Good luck
