I am currently using AMD6 by Bally which has some issue on screen rotation on lock screen so I downloaded the zip from other thread the fix lockscreen, but when I'm trying to flash it via CWM I can't find the file, the only file I see on the SD is the AMD6 wonder what happen? was that because of the Ext 2 Int? or was it something else?
TIA for those who will respond. Have a nice day ahead.

Oh for some reason the storage where I saved the zip is in the phone (that's what it tells when I connect it on my PC) because the Card don't have any folder in it, cannot even copy a file there.. Now I'm lost.
I'm using CWM 6.0.2.8 I don't seem to find the option mount from both memories what I see are, Mount/efc mount/sd etc, format/sd etc.
Update ur recovery then from

Since i´ve sorted out some standart apk´s and odex-files with a Rootmanager out of my system yesterday, i´m pretty confident with the Firmware right now.
But there is one thing missing right now, the Samsung Taskmanager Widget. Would somebody be so kind and upload it for me?
That would be great!
Best regards,
Thomas
Come on guys
Just one .apk and .odex file, anybody?

Here you are!
Thank you mate!

If you are using CWM (Clockwork Recovery Mod), you dont need to rename anything at all.
If however, you are using either or recovery 2e or 3 (Stock Recovery), you will need to keep the file as update.zip. No exceptions to the file name using stock recovery.
Do I select "Install Rom from sd card" in cwm once downloaded?
I tried to install that .zip with clockworkmod but it got stuck at the installing and I had to take out the battery to return to my rom..

Can I use it on Tmobile Vibrant Rooted and running Axura 2.2.5.7?
hi ppl, i come here for help because even after reading lots of how-to's i still cant do this, so the thing is, i used odin to flash to a stock rom, and so far so good, the rom had the extension .md5, used that one package, fine.
then i saw a rom called "bionic cow" and from what i could gather, i have to flash thru recovery, because it is a zip, ok chose it from sd card, zip file and all, and then, bam:
"E:Short write of /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(no space left on the device)
installation aborted."
one thing worth mentioning, the zip isnt called package, the card is 16gb, and it has like 14 free, internal mem has around 800 mb free.
what can i try now? yea i did wipe the internal mem thru recovery menus.
This occurs because you are trying to flash it with the stock recovery which as you have found will not work. You must use a custom recovery see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1446593
thank you very much, i tried to flash the recovery before with odin, but it seems i wasnt waiting enough time.
It worked and i flashed with OKV4_Final rom.
Another question: what to do when the rom file is in the .7z extension? i extracted it and repacked with zip extension, but it doesnt seem to apear in recovery menu.
EDIT: forget about it, all is good, i was looking in wrong dir.
Thanks
Help!
Please help me.
I also have a problem flashing the same ROM. I have flashed CWM and put the package in .zip file in the SD card (I rename it to Bionic_cow.zip) and install it on CWM, but I get an error saying "Installation Aborted" with an Android with X Sign (?) on the background of the recovery. Can somebody identify what is wrong?
You can't just rename it to zip you have to use 7zip first to combine the two parts

I use a Mac, but either way I didn't rename it to zip. I extracted the original file and compressed it again as a .zip file, but since the file's name is too complicated, I renamed it. Speaking of this, maybe renaming it causes this error?

Create a new folder...place part.1 n part.2 in the same folder.
Extract part.1....part.2 will self merge into one folder.
Browse into that folder and highlight all items n create .zip.
You can name it anything as long as it has. zip

Thank you very much, I have the ROM running on my phone now.
But there's a stupid question though:
I notice that whenever I lock my phone, it has this animation (bug?) like an old television turned off. Is this part of the ROM?

That would be normal, CWG has been using that animation since before his Bionic ROM..
Besides, to me it look way much cooler than the stock animation when u lock ur phone..

Hi, I'm a complete newb to rooting Android phones, so I'd like to apologize in advance. I current;y have a Galaxy S2 SGH-T989, and I wanted to flash some custom ROMS onto it. I have just rooted my phone (after many painstaking hours) and am now atempting to install superuser, which didn't come with the root. When I open clockworkmod, it cant detect the .zip file containing superuser. HOWEVER, once I moved the .zip to a subfolder (DCIM), clocworkmod could detect it, bit could not finish installation and aborted. Any tips on how to make it see it under the main directory? Or how to tell it to complete installation?
R u putting it on the external sd?
Sent from a real macnut on my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
It has to be on the root of the sd
Sometimes it takes a few times for it to stick ...
Put su in external sd, flash you will Get a error then do nandroid backup and then restore
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using XDA
OK this is what u got to do... when on computer and u are dragging the su zip over to your sdcard. (Has to be external) make sure u are not sticking it in a directory ( or sub folder) just drag it and pretty much drop it under the folders make sure it does not go into any of the folders like I said. Then u should see the su zip . Now when u go into clock work mod go to install from sdcard (make sure u choose external) find the zip....again it shouldn't be in any directories (folders). Flash it it might error out....but do not leave cwm stay in there and reflash it until it says it installed correctly. Should take two or three times. Then boot up u will see su in app folder. Go to market. Dl busy box. Install it then go into app and install busy box. Now u are good to go. Also after all that is said and done go back into recovery and go to backup and restore and choose backup. Now u will have a backup of rooted stock rom in case something happens on custom rom u can always revert back to ur backup.........also did u install recovery thru Odin? U had to because rom manager needs root....anyways if u flashed recovery (cwm) thru Odin. I don't think u technically need to root. U can just flash any custom from (there all rooted). The reason y don't have to root is because unlike from manager which needs root first to install recovery. Odin didn't thus this is why u technically don't need to root if u want to tho do it and remember always make a backup! Before flashing custom roms !
Thanks for all the replies, but I have one problem,I don't have an external sd card. Us there any way around this?

So im trying to flash a zip in TWRP and I go to where the zip is and it isnt there. So i reboot my phone and its in the folder that i looked at in twrp. So I go back to twrp and see several old files are there that i deleted a long time ago... Its like twrp isnt seeing that i changed anything in my file systems, like its looking at a snapshot from a week ago... I even reinstalled twrp via GooManager and that didnt do anything either.

Well that didn't work anyways :l, and I know it's a problem with TWRP because when I install CWM everything is fine, I just prefer TWRP
Oh okay I figured it out, TWRP is reading all my data from a /sdcard/0 instead of just /sdcard. So how can I change it to read from /sdcard so then I can get rid of /sdcard/0
Use the link at the bottom of the op called restore sd card after downgrade. Flash via any custom recovery

Wait now TWRP is still reading off of the 0 folder, ughh its like the 0 folder switched with what I had previously
Did you reflash aosp?
After you flash the link I sent you wipe your caches the reboot back into recovery
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium
In TWRP, change the permissions of the '0' folder to 755. Reboot. Move anything you want to keep out of the 0 folder. In Root Explorer, delete the 0 folder. Reboot to recovery. See that everything is back in the /sdcard folder as it should be.
This is the result of having run a 4.2.2 based ROM. Running the file previously pointed to will reset to use /sdcard, but you still have to delete the 0 folder for it to take.

Swap sdcard for samsung s4
Remember to backup first
For tw 4.2.2
and Google S4 4.3
With this mod you will be able to swap your external sdcard and internal sdcard
So all game data will download and save to your external sdcard
Make sure you have busybox installed
Then move zip to sdcard and flash with recovery
Download S4 http://db.tt/q8M99JaI
