I just updated CWM to 6.0.2.5 and its not reading my external SD card. (32gb).
example: when i try to install something from the external sd i get an error message "E: Can't mount /external_sd/
so i go back and go to "mounts and storage" and select "mount /external_sd and im getting the error message "Error mounting /external_sd!
i rebooted my phone and went into my gallery and all of my sd card contents are still there and playing...
any way to get the external sd card to work with CWM 6.0.2.5???
I had the same issue with cwm I'm sure a lot of people running cwm 6 did as well. I don't have a solution. I would switch to teamwin recovery if I were you..I'm running 3.2.2.x I've had no mounting issues or aroma sticking issues. Until theres a fix for c.w.m 6... I'm on team win. Hope this helps.

I was using CWM and tried formatting multiple times using multiple different programs with no results. I just flashed the latest TWRP via ODIN and BAM!
Success!!!!! My 64gb sdhc class 10 shows in recovery, finally.
Life after CWM
I have been a life long CWM user and lover but after today I am a TWRP fan for life (until something better comes along). I was in a panic until I found this tread! My external_sd was not mounting in CWM. I flashed TWRP from goo manager right over CWM and boom - external_sd is alive and well.

TWRP version?
What version of TWRP you got? Latest TWRP also not working for me? If you can tell me the version you are using, that will greatly help.

The app is called goo.im, it is in the play store. once installed and open hit you menu key and bring up the settings drop down, fourth option should be install OpenRecoveryScript, hit that and fallow the steps, it will overwrite CWM. That is what I did. Flash at your own risk. Good luck. I attached a screen shot of the menu.

Hello all,
I have been trying to resolve this issue since I rooted and installed CWM on my Epic 4g Touch. I've searched through all the other threads but see to have a copletely new issue with recovery. When I try backing up my existing rom, the back up gives me this error message "Error while backing up boot image/tmp/recovery.log was copied to /sdcard/clockworkmod/recovery.log Please open rom manager to report the issue"
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for your help.
Don't use ROM manager.
Install CWM using the Auto Root sticky.

I would just uninstall. There are simple equivalents for what you need done that have been tested extensively with this phone.
Still won't let me backup
I did the CWM through autoroot, now when in recovery mode and trying to perform a backup I get "Error backing up boot image! (Free space: 0mb)"
I reinstalled the Rogue Recovery from autoroot and tried again, but recieved the same error message...
Any idea what's going on here?

Sweet!
Turns out I had to re-format my external sd card, worked perfectly! Thanks a ton!
My evo cannot install apk's and whenever i boot up a rom i downloaded from my computer it randomly reboots. The rom's I tried were Alter rom and elite series resurected. The only roms i got to work were evo classic and dark light. Please help me.
Some backstory. It all started when i flashed Evo classic last night and I did not have the Google Play Store. I decided to get an APK. What I did was got an APK from a thread on XDA I tried to install it through the Downloads app but it froze up my phone and just rebooted. I tried this several other times with no luck.
Thanks in advance.
Some roms you have to flash google proprietary files.

You did not say that you made a nandroid back up of your phone, have you? If not, you just experienced why you should start.
What recovery are you using? Have you tried wiping dalvik and cache to see if that helps?
More details on what you did to get yourself in this situation would be helpful.

I did that. For dark light i used ICS Gapps. And when I rebooted there was no play store. Also for Classic sense I went through setup, and there was no playstore.
I am thinking this could be a Sd card issue.
You can't flash ICS on anything below 4.0. It won't work
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I tried sense 1.0 and I had a Android backup of dark light I tried to go back to that but no market so I used am on ra to fix permissions then I installed gaaps and there was a market. But when I install an app or apk my phone reboots.
If it were me, I'd:
1) Backup the files on SD
2) In Recovery: Reformat/re-partition SD
3) Copy a ROM .zip to SD
4) In Recovery: Flash ROM
5) In Recovery: Save recovery.log to SD
6) Post recovery.log here
If you do this with AlterROM, you'll need to use the Save Log option at the end of the installer.

Thanks but I think I found out the problem what I did was install a rom ran gaaps went into recovery fixed permissions took out my SD card booted up the phone downloaded something from the market put my SD back in and everything worked. Also I tried AlterRom but when I got done with aroma and booted it up there was no launcher. So what I am thinking is that its an SD card issue. And other help would be appreciated.
Thanks for reading my tome of knoledge . Any help is appreciated.

Need some help guys. I wanted to try out TWRP and was currently using CWMR 5.5.0.4 so I flashed and everything went fine. Didn't really like it so I odin back to CWMR. Now in CWMR it won't see anything on my ext sd card. All my files and my CWMR backups are there and usually when I go to restore I would have the option to restore from sd card or internal sd card. Now I only have the option to see my internal sd card. How can I get my CWMR to see my ext sd card again? Also I was looking for a newer version of CWMR but could only find the odin version of 5.5.0.4. Thanks again guys for any help.
A lot of the first cwm recoveries don't support external sd. Upgrade to at least 5.8.4.5.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Problem fixed thank you. But where is the newer CWMR? I can't find any good links anywhere. Even google.
www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
What didn't you like about twrp?
It does the same thing but is touch screen.
I love how I can just flash without manually going into download mode too. Goo manager does it all automatically for you through twrp

Now i try to install a "cyanogenmod nightly" - but in my Rom-Manager Premium v5.5.2.3 is no choice for nightlys? There is to chose between
"ClockworkMod", "Font Packs for Android 4.0" and "Google Apps". Under "Google Apps" are four ROMs to find; 20121212JB, 20121011JB, 20120429ICS and 20110828 Universal.
After installing Clockworkmod Recovery the intern storage of my phone is nearly full - 327 MB free of 10,0 GB. My Card is nearly empty - 54,4 GB free of 59,4 GB. Should i cutt off the folder "clockworkmod" with 2,77 GB and copy it to my desktop or must he leave on the phone storage?
Goomanager is better for browsing between Roms and it's free. You can also flash TWRP recovery which for me has a better UI, but they both do the same work.
Oh and your space prpblem is cause of the backup. I suggest you move the backup to your PC and remove it from phone.

Hi Sinalco,
Wanted to just know that have you successfully installed Cynogenmod ROM even though you were getting some messages like "ROM may flash stock recovery on boot. Fix? THIS CAN NOT BE UNDONE' at CWM reboot?.
Is that message coming even after installing Cyanogenmod ROM?
Please help me because I am also getting same messages during CWM reboot
