Guys, i was installing the CM 10 B7 and the BurstV2 tweak, before actually see there is a problem.. so then i need to reinstall the CM10 again, but fact is i don't have it on my sd anymore. How do i put it? The Mount option on the recovery doens't work, as i need the .zip files from the custom rom in there...
please help me.
Where do you put it last time? SD Card or Ext. SD card? There's actually no need of mounting.
If you put it in sdcard, then go to: CWM > Install ZIP from SDCard > Choose ZIP from SDCard
If you put it in external sdcard, then CWM > Install ZIP from SDCard > Choose ZIP from External SDCard
Then find it.
If you don't find it:
Boot normally, then go to your File Manager, then find your desired zip.
If you find it, then maybe there is a problem, try to move it somewhere in the sdcard/external_sd
If you don't, then the file is not there.

[Q] Trying to install StarBurst ROM from CWM, external_sd says "no files found"
I have Zedomax 4.1beta installed, and would like to install StarBurst ROM. I did a backup, formated, wipes cache, and dalvcache and then i select "install zip from SDcard" and select external_sd and it kicks me back to the main menu and says "no files found". I have formated the sd card multiple times (using computer, phone, and sd formater from sd association). The sd has the rom's zipped files.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Can i use the internal storage to install rom?
I dont know why it is not recognizing your sd card.
But yes, you can use the internal storage. Somewhere in CMW, there is an option to mount the sdcard, so you can connect ur phone to the computer, and put tbe ROM in the internal memory. Then, under "install zip from sdcard", there is an option to "install from internal memory". You tbst option to install the ROM from the phones internal.memory. if you cannot see that option, you need to use the latest version of CMW, its somewhere in the development section.

I second the CWR suggestion. One of the ROM or Kernel packages has a bad or old CWR in it, because I have seen your issue too. Using various Roms/kernel packages changed the color to CWR to orange and Blue. One of them didn't even have an option for the the internal SD card. Don't know which one because I tried all them.
I for one will be glade when all the developers get on the same page. Things will get better, it's just a new phone and the community is still forming.
I am trying to flash cm9. I just updated CWM to version 5.8.4.7. When i go into install zip from sdcard, there is no option to install zip from internal sdcard. When i go into choose zip from sdcard, it shows my internal sdcard (the rom is on my external). I tried to mount /external_sd and nothing changes. When i try to mount /sdcard, it wont mount.
Should i just try to install the rom from my internal sdcard? I heard that it was dangerous and it has to be the external sdcard. Is there something wrong with my cwm? I installed it by downloading the recovery.img to my internal sdcard and running dd if=... of=...
Sorry if i explained it poorly, again i cannot choose the zip from my external sdcard in cwm.

5.8.4.7 doesn't support the sdcard. I cant speak for who ever said its dangerous to flash from the internal...but I've been doing that and I haven't had a single problem.

Why doesn't the latest version of cwm allow flashing from external sdcard? Is it the best version to use?
Why? Idk.
Best one to use? Depends on you...some will like the touchscreen one others will like this one....I've never had a problem with it.

Flashed successfully from internal sd card, thanks for the help
Hey guys,
I just flashed the boot.img via the boot.img in the Custom Rom (CM10) (./fastboot-mac flash boot boot.img) and then I found out I didnt put a rom.zip but a rom folder on my phone.. So I wanted to reboot but it doesn't really reboots.
When you hear that chime, it plays that 3/4th and then goes to 'HTC One tm' screen and stucks.
How.. do I fix it?
I flashed it with latest recovery thingy, 5-1.8 as I can see in my download folder.
Thanks so much in advance!
Go in to Recovery(like TWRP), mount USB, put the ROM on your SD-Card and flash it.

I can get into my SD, but I cannot move/paste anything onto the drive. Both SD as Internal folders.
edit:Ok, I got the CM10 rom.zip pasted on the SD-card, but when trying to install: It says 'installation aborted'
2) What you mean with flash it? Just 'install rom from sd card .. .. and select the rom.zip?

Then the zip is probably corrupt, download it again. Yes, flashing a Rom means installing from sdcard.

Probably you have to disable the signature check in your recovery. After that, it will succesfully install.
Hi,
Could any one help??
How to create a partition in external sd card to move internal apps
Flash a Recovery if you haven't already done so (ClockwordMod is best).
Navigate to the Recovery from the Bootloader
Select "Advanced"
Then select "Partition SD card"
Choose your desired size. Keep swap size to 0M and let it do its thing.
Then from this thread: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1972262), download that archive and place it on your SD card and flash it from recovery (Recovery > Install from a zip)
Good luck!
thanks

none of the players can play it smoothly any ideas to fix them?
Hi,
i tried to flash a custom ROM and i found a tutorial which said to use "super wipe android revolution" so i put it in the sdcard like the .zip from the custom ROM.
I launched "choose zip from sdcard" and selected super wipe.zip, but after rebooting on recovery when i tried to apply the next file with "choose .zip from sdcard" it said to me that "no files found"!
When i reboot normally, there is the samsung LOGO but nothing else after 5-10 minutes....
Omg that script is erase all the data so why should i do this before flashing a new rom i can't understand why i can't do anything know execpt going on recovyer/ DL mode.
Can you please help me to find a solution like putting maybe the custom ROM on external SD card ?? is it possible or ?
Thanks a lot i'm very afraid of being in this situation...
No need to panic, you can either flash a stock rom from odin in download mode, or put a custom rom on your ext sd card. You will need to flash a decent recovery though for ext sd something like twrp, you can use odin to flash it.

I have a 6.xxx CWM so i can put my rom .zip on the external SD and select "choose zip from external sdcard" on the recovery to install on my internal sdcard right?
Yep, that should do it.
