i accidentally wiped my internal storage while flashing jellybomb i am in twrp but have nothing to boot to how can i load a rom to boot to
Use Odin and download mode if you don't have a ROM on your external SD card to flash. I always keep a few different ROMs on my external in case something goes wrong which I have had happen before. You have to flash a tar file using Odin not a zip of a ROM

TWRP should give you option to mount as USB Storage, Can load rom onto your SD, Unmount, flash, and get moving again.

I tried to install starburst rom on my brand new epic 4g touch. I wiped the cache and system and everything and saved the zip file on my external sd card but when i went to flash it in clockwork it is not there. I am thinking that it is only showing the internal storage. Is there any way to access my external data form clockwork?!
Is it in advanced » mounts?
Sry for thr un definite answer
Its been a while since i rooted

unfortunately no. before this phone i had the lg optimus s so im not used to the whole two sd cards thing. Had i known it would be like this i would have made a backup before wiping. If anyone else has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated. Please dont be a brick!!!! lol

Your best bet is to run a tar file thru Odin and then place the zip on your internal. Basically I am saying flash another rom thru odin and start over
Edit
Also always do a backup!

Flash the stock eg30 tar through odin. A phone is not a brick if u can get into recovery/download mode.

Should be an option to mount USB storage in CWM so you can copy files directly from your computer to the internal SD
depending on which version of clockwork your running.
for me going to mounts and storage menu and selecting mount /sdcard worked.
Would any of you happen to know then where i might be able to get a .tar of starburst ive been searching to no avail hoping that my phone isnt an expensive paper weight
My problem is that I already wiped the system data and dalvic cache thinking i would be able to flash the rom so there is nothing for the phone to boot into.
What they're saying is to boot into download mode and flash a full stock ROM via Odin so that you can transfer the file to your internal storage. Its an extra step but shouldn't take much more than 1/2 hour.
Upgrade to CWM 5.0.2.3 and you'll get the option to install zip from internal/external media.
I updated clockworkmod recovery through rom manager. Rom manager said the install was successful. So then I boot into the recovery to flash the cyanogenmod 10 preview build. I do all my wipes data, cash, exe. Then I go to install the rom and I realize now with the new recovery I can’t install/restore anything from /extsdcard (external storage). It only has the option to install/restore from /sdcard (internal storeage) which would be fine except all my roms/backups are on my micro sdcard (external storage). I have already wiped everything so now I can’t boot my phone to fix it. Is there a way to install the old recovery after I have wiped everything. I was thinking about using Odin to flash the old recovery in download mode again (like I did when rooting) but I am not sure if this is ok to do. I tried mounting the internal storage to my pc to copy the files I need from my computer to my phone. When I plugged it in the box in the bottom right popped up and said installing drivers and they were successful but when I try mounting (anything) the computer does not recognize it. So I can’t transfer the files. Would someone who knows more than me give some advice please?

While youre in recovery, can you mount through the mounts and storage option? Im not on the recovery you are talking about but if you can mount it you can throw the rom on that way. If you cant do that you should be able to just boot up the rom thats currently on it and mount it that way. Just because you wiped everything doesnt mean that it wont boot up, it just cleared all of the data. It should load up with your previous rom.
Thank you very much. It gave me more insight on what was going on. I have my phone back up and working. I was able to flash the old recovery with odin and i hope this information will help someone else in future as well.

rooted my phone sgn2 and installed twrp downloaded jelly thunder blackout to my sd card fowllowed steps,dalvc wipe,cache wipe ,wipe system and then i flash jtbo rom and it failed. i got a bad download and im not shure what to do.any help would be appriciated . and i have every thing backed up.
If you made a Nandroid before flashing just restore it. If not and you have an external sd card shut down the phone and remove the sd card and use a computer to dl a rom and put it on the card. Put the card back in the phone and boot directly into recovery and flash rhw rom. If you dont have a ext sdcard then there is probably a way to adb push a rom to the internal sdcard with a computer but you'll have to google that one, , I'm a little rusty on adb. Another option is trying to reboot to bootloader and flash a stock rom with odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...ter - [ATT / Bell / Telus / Rogers / Sasktel]Link for odin instructions and roms.

sometimes you just need to reboot back into recovery. Just last night after wiping with TWRP I got "Failed" message when trying to flash the best international stock ROM. I simply reboot the phone back into recovery and then it flashed fine.
Hey guys , seeking help from the pros here.
I tried to install a new rom yesterday and mistakenly hit the format SD option instead of format System to clean phone before installing a new Rom. Now my problem is my internal memory has no files now, when going in cwm and trying to install rom from internal memory it says there are no files.
So i was wondering if anyone knows a way i can flash files back into the phone, i tried Odin and some of the flash stock rom guides here but i boot loop and it removed my cwm, so when i go into recovery i actually go into androids stock recovery mode. I have tried to flash cwm again and that seems to work but still no files in the phone. Help.

You should be able to mount sd card from recovery. Choose that option in advanced. I use twrp now and it's a bit easier to use than com. Once you mount the sd card find it on your computer move the rom zip there. Now unmount the sd and flash away.

Twrp seems easier to use and it has big buttons with the touch screen.
If you have an external sd put the rom on it from your pc. Then select external sd from twrp by touching it where it says internal and select external. Now flash a custom rom.

Guys! I screwed up bad! An amateur mistake! After thinking about trying a rom, I factory resetted my device along with the internal storage where I stored my zip file and my backups.....now I have a SMT320 with no OS. Help?? Anything will do! I don't dare booting up my device as it will go in a bootloop or may even hard-brick.....I need some serious help here!
try using hotkeys (home+vol up + power,I think) to boot straight into recovery when the device is off.
Yeah, I can do that but my files aren't showing up.....all I did in the recovery was factory reset,wipe data, system and cache and then when I tried to install the rom, it didn't show up. I think It is because I formatted my ad card before for the device and pretty sure the rom is in that.....pls help

But my files are missing, read my last post
Connect it to a computer when in TWRP recovery. The internal memory should show up so you can transfer the zip file over.
dont worry. if you have twrp you can install install any custom rom.
download custom rom+gapps via opengapps. com to copy to your sd card.
put it in your sd slot in tab pro, boot in twrp, tick install, tick sd card storage, then install rom and gapps. done.
or you can flash official rom via odin. how to do it check forum or mail me to pm and i will help you step by step
