[Q] Xperia S, STORAGE MOUNT problem - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hello everybody!
After successfully flashing XPERIA S with official (stable) cyanogenmod 9.1.0, I have decided to try cyanogenmod 10. After non-successfull instalation (assert failed - status 7) I decided to try 9.1.0 again but it was not working anymore (got stuck at boot animation). After reinstalling 9.1.0, I've tried to install 9.0.0 and after successfull installation I was stuck with FreeXperia logo. After that, every atempt to install any of those versions failed with status 7. At this point I could have entered phone storage and mount it on my pc (and create a whole backup using linux 'dd' command), but after next boot into clockworkmod, I was not able to mount storage anymore (I've tried it on both linux and windows). I can flash the device with fastboot and enter clockworkmod without any problems, but cannot do anything else.
Has anyone had similar problems? How can I mount the device storage on my pc again? I would appreciate if someone could help me solve this problem.
Thanks.

i would reccomend
1) Reflash to stock everthing
2) Reinstall Cyanogenmod with whatever steps necessary

assert failed is a different issue. Open cm 10.1 package on your pc and go to meta-inf.go to com>google>updater script. Open with notepad++ and delete the first line
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "nozomi" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "nozomi" something like this. and before this did you clear dalvik cache and cache and data after installing 9.1.0 or 9.0.0?

[Q] problems with flashing ARHD, what's going wrong?

first time posting here, and it's my first time trying to root my phone.
i used the toolkit, and that went without any problems. the phone was rooted and unlocked, and I downloaded CWM.
After I dl'ed CWM, I downloaded the ROM Android Revolution HD. There were two files I downloaded, the actual rom itself, and the firmware that comes alongside with it. They are both zip files, and I placed them both into my phone's storage.
I booted CWM, and chose to flash the actual ROM first. That worked fine, and I thought I should flash the firmware as well. Some error came up, and it said it was aborted. No big deal, so I reboot, and it shows the screen of the phone trying to boot for at least 30 minutes.
I restart my phone, and then I flash the ROM again. Tried it again, and I'm going to leave it attempting to boot into the ROM over night.
If I wake up with this problem still, what is a method to work around this?
okay it seems that i can not restore my phone back to the factory settings, and I can't connect to a mobile network.
the phone does now boot into android revolution HD, but I just need to figure out why I can't get on a mobile network
Welcome kyro- okay usually ARHD has 2 files and one is the ROM itself and the other may be the Superwipe file, they are both .zip files but perhaps you are confusing the Superwipe file with a firmware file (I am going from memory here so bear with me)
If this is the case go into CWM again and flash the Superwipe FIRST then flash the Rom file.
I am hoping it's something simple like this.
Just a suggestion
LL13-
i wish it was that simple, but i seem to have messed my firmware up in some way. everything else works fine, except for the radio. Baseband version is unknown at the moment, after wiping data cache system battery and using the super wipe as well.
from the website, here are the three links to download from
Firmware package
Flash it in recovery by selecting "apply update.zip from /sdcard"
Firmware package contains newest radio and bootloader for 4.0.x ROMs
Android Revolution HD 4.0.0

Super Wipe Lite
This script will erase and format your system and cache partition using EXT4 file-system
It will also wipe /data partition, but /data/media (virtual SD card) will be untouched

when i flash it in recovery mode, this is the error

so i can't connect to a mobile network until this is properly installed i'm assuming.

I recently tried to flash JellyMIUI_3.1.11_v2 custom rom on my HTC Desire HD.
Install instructions suggest to install FULL_WIPE_1.5_EXT4_ zip from sd card.
When attempting to intall full wipe i get the following error:

I does not even use that wipe script... just go to recovery and select "wipe everything except sdcard".. and then flash the rom.. works perfectly
GPS does not work: Check whether autorotation working or not
if it does not, flash the stock rom first before flashing jellymiui rom..
if it does, then the problem maybe lies on the hardware(attenna problem) or need a gps.conf fix..

I had that same problem when I used CWM recovery. I switched to TWRP and everything was ok. You could try that

[Q] Unable to install Cyanogenmod as custom Rom with CWM

Hi folks,
I'm a fairphone 1 1st edition (repartitioned with 1.6 update) owner and i have been eagerly waiting for cyanogenmod for quite a while. I saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2615613 and followed the installation instructions.
Procedure:
1) [Install MTK 6589 driver][1]
2) Install + Open up [MTK Droid Root & Tools v. 2.5.3][2]
3) Root phone in MTK Droid Root & Tools
4) Backup phone with MTK Droid Root & Tools
5) Download [Recovery Image][3] (KitKat) and follow [installation instructions][4]:
a) copy the recovery to the device: adb push cwm-fp1-kk.0.1.img /storage/sdcard1
b) adb into device: adb shell
c) flash to recovery: dd if=/storage/sdcard1/cwm-fp1-kk.0.1.img of=/dev/recovery
6) Reboot into Recovery with [Rom Manager 6.6.3.7 ][5]
7) Select [zip file][6] from sd card and install
Error message: Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset. E: Error in /storage/sdcard1/cm-11_FP1-ota-UNOFFICIAL-FULLOFBUGS-0.1.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
I also deleted the assert line in the updater-script file and updated the zip file, as during the installation Error Status 7 showed up (see this [site][7]).
Still installation aborts, this time no error message is given. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

I had the same error message try first formatting the system partition.
I think that you need to "wipe data" in cwm before flashing when you install for the first time.

(Solved) L310: rooted but unable to install CM12.1 - Error-Message included

Hi,
after giving 4.4.2-StockROM a (long) try, I wanted to install [SM-T31X][5.1.1] CyanogenMod 12.1 unofficial build (by tohenk).
I followed the instruction for TWRP-Installation and the one for CM12.1 by tohenk.
Doing so, I installed TWRP via Odin 3.09 (successful).
To root the T310, I had to install the zip "ROOT_SGT3_8.0.zip". (also successful)
Reentering TWRP to flash the CM12.1-zip, I selected the file from internal SD-Card, getting a warning that the file shall not be compatible - having had the same with the root-zip, i swiped to install.
Resulting in the error (got a screenshot, but can't link it - to few posts):
"Can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset.
E: Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/fw/cm-12.1-20151018-UNOFFICIAL-lt01wifi.zip'
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/fw/cm-12.1-20151018-UNOFFICIAL-lt01wifi.zip"
... as offered by TWRP, i reset the Dalvik-Cache, rebooted. All Apps have been reinitialized, rebooted again into TWRP, getting the same Error.
So I installed philz_touch_6.08.9-lt01wifi.zip - but getting the same Error...
At the moment, I'm stucked with rooted StockROM...
..what did I miss?
(thanks for any help)
- - - - - - -
Edit:
Found the error:
prepareing the Flash-Procedure, I did a "factory reset" from within StockROM-Settings.
After performing a Factory-Reset out of PhilzTouch and wiping Dalvik-Cache (without rebooting the GT3 after Wiping), I was capable to install the CM12.1-zip, which runs perfectly fine now...
(somewhere it should be mentioned "do the factory reset from recovery, not from within ROM"
tohenk: you did a wonderful Job on the CM12.1-ROM! Thank you!!
I'm having the same issue.... so I installed Philz_touch_6.19.3 but I still can't flash any of the ROM's for T310...
Do you have any suggestions?
My tablet start up to SAMSUNG TAB 3 logo and stuck there...

Twrp bootloop

Hello,
i just unlocked bootloader and installed twrp and it all went fine..
until i wanted to fully wipe my device, i did this via twrp.
after 20Minuts, nothing happend, the bar was still white and gray (not even a little bit blue)
and it kept stuck on ''twrp formatting data using make_ext4fs function''.
i knew this wasn't a good idea, but i decided to turn off my phone,
and now, everytime when i turn it on on the normal way it just redirrects me to TeamWin in a bootloop.
even if i want to go to recovery mode i keep stuck in that bootloop, so there is nothing i can do right now, i only can stick at Fastboot Mode but nothing else,
Is there any way to fix this problem?
Using ASUS ZENFONE 2 551ML
I hope you did a backup of your system before? Otherwise just download the latest full image:
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE551ML/UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.174-user.zip
place it on your internal sdcard (via adb push) and then flash it normally with TWRP. Please note that the procedure can take up to 30 minutes, where the formatting is the procedure taking the longest time...

but i cant use twrp on my phone because its stuck in bootloop, or what do you mean? (english not my main language)
please give me some proper step by step instructions, i would really apreciate that!
thanks anyway your awesome!
Man, I misread your post, sorry...I thought you could boot only into twrp
If you still have fastboot, why not flashing twrp 2.8.x.x?
Code:
Fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
Fastboot reboot recovery
Otherwise you could flash stock system with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-brick-soft-hard-bricked-zenfone-2-t3284256
It's a lot to read
wow, that is something really helpfull, there is still hope to revive my phone
i'll let you know how it turnt out xd
thanks alot!!
i fixed recovery mode, so thats already one step further. Oefff @TheSSJ thanks for the help.
But now i get some other problems, when i try to wipe my phone i get the error like ''unable to mount /data'' and ''unable to wipe dalvik''
and all other kinds of these errors, i get the same problem when i was installing rom. isn't there anything or a way to fully wipe all this **** so i can install a fresh rom.
i flashed custom rom and this is error log i get. its all full written down.

Seems you don't have a WW image installed, do you have a CN Software? Then you need another Software of course
what do you mean with ww & cn software?
sorry but im new in this.. but im really interested so can you please explain a little bit?
how can i get this other software! thanks!!!
Where did you buy your Phone? what does the packaging state? WW, CN, TW, etc? These 2 letters must be written in uppercase somewhere, then we will know which software to flash, there is a check where your phone's software is compared to the zip you are trying to flash:
assert failed: getprop ("ro.build.asus.sku") == ''WW''
Which TWRP did you flash?
ohhh yes, i do have CN software Probably, as it is buyed from china.
Where can i find this other type software?
thanks!

I think flashing will still fail though...but pls try first,maybe it'll work
i tryed it, i get the same error :/
Update: i changed from CN to WW.
Because of this i reflashed to twrp 3.0 and it works properly and now wiping shows no problem anymore.
I also got the WW ota zip but dont know how to install that.
Anyway, i tryed to install xaosp rom (even if my ota is still CN)
And it showed no problems at all!
BUT when i tryed to startup my phone it sticks with the asus logo and wont go any further, not a bootloop, it just sticks at the asus logo.
We are Always getting more and more steps further into fixing my phone, thanks for that @TheSSJ were almost there ?

You could try flashing cm13 first and then xosp:
First wipe data/cache
Then flash cm13
Boot up and hope that it works
Reboot to recovery
Wipe data/cache
Flash xosp and maybe a kernel that fits (FlareM?)
Boot to system again
