Hi, i flashed a maguro rom and got stuck at bootscreen.
i couldnt mount my sdcard in cwm, because it made a 0/ directory and couldnt find sd_ext
i had no other rom on my sd card, so i started looking for a way out, ended up formatting my sdcard ..
no sweat : -) lmao
next i got the sdk, installed the fastboot driver , ok, i got connection to my device.
but apparently to push a rom i need ADB, and i cant get ADB working, neither when im in cwm or on fastboot mode.
so i need access to the sdcard inside the Phone, i checked youtube , but dissasembling the Phone doesnt reveal the sd card :/
its soldered in there or smthn.
please help me get a rom on my sdcard.
Thanks in advance for any responses.
Grtz
Woah woah woah woah woah. Slow down! How did this escalate to unsoldering the sdcard so quickly? All the files you had WERE still on your sdcard in the /0/ folder. Pretty sure you deleted them all when you formatted your sdcard. I think you can push the files via adb?. Would have been really simple if you would have searched/asked before formatting.
adb working

I got adb working in clockwordmod now, i pushed the cwm10 rom, renamed it to update.zip
and used this command : adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
it transfers and gives me the speed message in the cmd prompt.
but when i then reboot and go into fastboot i type fastboot update /sdcard/update.zip , it says cant find file.
also when im in cwm and i try to "install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard" i get message in the advanced-log :
using data/media for /sdcard/ , im looking now for a command to browse the directory structure of my Phone.
is this possible with adb?
any tips are greatly appreciated !
Grtz
flashed , trying to boot now..loading...
in my last post i said it was using /data/media for sdcard/
so i adb pushed the file to /data/media and in clockworkmod , selected choose from sdcard
and it worked ! i saw update.zip , installed it, im now running cyanogmod10.
thanks for the reply's even tought it didnt help.
any effort is appreciated.
Thanks! bye! =)

So I rebooted to recovery and I push a file into /sdcard
after I shell, I check it's only file in there!! So then I reboot and then adb shell again when phone is regular mode and I don't see that file
Where did I push the file when in recovery? I can't find it next time I reboot to recovery then did LS, the file is gone! Can I delete that file or its lost/hidden or what's going on?
Im not even going to read the whole thing. If u pushed the file and u can't figure out how to reboot from recover just pull battery and restart

You need to mount your sd card to /sdcard.
The file was stored to / on the temporary ramdisk. Do "mount -a" in shell first.

Thanks for the good info! SO basically the file I pushed over was removed upon rebooting correct? I just don't want that file to be on the ramdisk or sdcard anywhere since the /sdcard was not mounted.
I've load many ROMS before without issues until today. I forgot to copy the ROM to the phone before flashing. So, while in recovery mode, I used "adb push <ROM.zip.." to the sdcard. This says it pushed ok. But, when I go to "choose zip from sdcard", it's no where to be found. Any ideas?
Reboot the damn thing back into the existing rom and copy it over.
Hopefully they get the "mount SD Card" working. It was nice to copy files over to the phone while in CWM.
I think you could probably copy it to where the sdcard is actually mounted at, which is /data/media/ or something like that.

I tried and it hangs on a screen with the word "Google" and an unlocked lock at the bottom.

Thank you. Thank you. This worked. adb push <rom name> /data/media
This placed the file at the "root" of the virtual sdcard seen by clockworkmod.
Thats great!
I'm sure it will only be a matter of time before CWR mounts that directory as default when you select to do the mount USB storage option. Alternatively (and a little more complexly), they could create a symlink at /storage to point there, temporarily while you are in CWR.
hi guys,
i was coming back from CM10 to stock 4.1.1 on my nexus and when in CWM, i deleted all the content on sdcard by accident.
now there is no zip file on the sd card to install the rom,
I tried mounting sdcard and copy but it doesnt mount.when i press mount /sdcard, nothing happens>(doesnt show the partition on computer and doesnt go ot :unmount /sdcard.)
Im stuck in here and dont know what to do.
please help!
use search, or read a few pages back, you'll find your answer.

i tried ODIN to stock but the ODIN software does not find the phone on any port when it is connected. i installed all drivers but still nothing.
cant i use ODIN for this ? thanks
adb push whateverromyouwant.zip /storage/sdcard0
Since nobody did explain why it can't mount, I will.
GALAXY NEXUS HAS NO SDCARD. It only has folder that is used as sdcard. CWM doesn't know that, thus making that mount feature useless on Galaxy Nexus
Like El Daddy said, connect your computer while your phone is in recovery mode, open cmd on the directory where you have fastboot.exe, then type "adb push ROMNAME.zip /sdcard/". You will also need to place your ROM file into the directory where you have fastboot.exe
Since that's done, please use search next time. There are too many threads talking about this exact problem.
Besides, using adb is more badass

or adb.exe, depending on what are you trying to do. one could also add said folder to $PATH and have the commands system-wide to avoid the need of placing files to flash/push on the same folder that the binaries are.
note: if pushing to /sdcard/ doesnt work in recovery, push to /data/media.

Thanks for extra info
Just to add (and clarify) a bit to what was said:
1) if we are talking about mounting as in getting read/write access to /sdcard via ADB, it is already mounted by default in CWM. The /sdcard is just a symlink to /data/media, and /data is mounted by default when you boot CWM.
2) if we are talking about mounting as in USB Mass Storage, mounting /sdcard is not possible for the same reason in point #1: /sdcard is just a symlink to /data/media.

Thank you so much, really solve my big problem
so much easier
for those who will come to this thread with the same problem, there is the very simple solution. use any of the Toolkits from this forum ( N-Cry or Nexus 4 Toolkit 2.0 ) and from the recovery menu select install from Sideload, after that launching ( pushing ) the ROM via sideload from the Tookit. Works like a charm.

1) this is the galaxy nexus, not the nexus 4
2) just say no to toolkits
3) adb is not hard
4) fastboot is also, not hard.
so i "crashed" my nexus because i installed a wrong .zip (or anything). now it stucks on the boot logo. i just want to reflash the firmware using the cwm. unfortunately i dont have it on the phone. is there a way to put it back on??
little update...
i can now access the phone via adb BUT i cannot mount the sdcard. when i click it, it just stays "mount /sdcard".

sigh... this has been mentioned a lot
you cannot mount /sdcard because there is no sdcard in the phone.
you need to use adb push to get the file you want on your phone.

Nothing to be surprised about, /data/media/ -> /sdcard/ symlink isnt working, but we're glad you got it working.

Watz goin' on yall????
I am looking to develop a custom rom for the N900T and got the phone rooted! ((used chainfie method))....I downloaded terminal and tried to copy the system file to my SD card, I've made a Nandroid and titatium backup for the N3 stock rom.....downloaded all the devz. tools kitchen is giving me HELL cooking and terminal wont copy nothing....
I'm newbie to developing on android, searched all around and most tutz and suggestion are helpful but a little old and was wondering sumbody could help me......
Kitchen gives me a error saying "no system folder found" I've transferred a copy of the phone/system folder to sdcard wit TWRP and put it in the home/user/kitchen folder/original&update folder and then copied to working folder....for I believe I'm missin' the phone data, meta-inf, and the boot.img files.....
Terminal seems like it take the su command but gives me a error after typing copy system >> sdcard command from the tutz and it was a no go!
i'm confused about that?
where can I find these files??? Thanks in advance
