[Q] cwm help - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Getting the can't mount error when tring to istall from sd

First of all you're posting in the wrong section. This belongs in q&a not development. Secondly you're going to have to give more details about your problem and the current state of your phone before you're going to get much help. Such as do you have a custom recovery, what version of recovery if yes, do you have updated bootloaders, what are you trying to install, and most importantly what can't mount?

Can't flash anything!

So I finally got my new OTA update rooted and now when I'm in recovery (RA-evo-v1.7.0.1) I get this after trying to flash anything...
E: Missing File:
system/app/Widget/DownloadManager.odex
E: Verification failed
Installation aborted.
Any ideas? I wiped everything. What's going on?
Are you using a Rom manager to do it or do it with recovery?

Every ROM I download off the development section in the EVO forums is not signed? Sounds not right.

some roms are sign, some are not and if RA recovery wont allow you to flash, why not use the toast ones (method 2 nand unlocking)? i've been using that one and have no problem in flashing any roms at all.
Try wearing only a raincoat and nothing under and see if you are able to flash again. Just jokin. Try using Clockworkmod recovery
If I change recoveries I don't have to re-root or anything correct? Used this root-method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=718889 . Should I run the RUU and re-root with a different method?

I was on CWM before but devs lately are recommending TWRP
go to android development thread at top of page read the sticky notes for directions
all versions of CWM work with our t989d
easiest way to install CWM is Rom Manager from the app store
but you must root your phone first
just in case you did not know hope this helped m8

If you are flashing first time
you want the *.tar file
so you can use Odin to flash the recovery

Flashed CM 10.1 and Im stuck

I cant connect to Odin - I cant flash any other rom - any ideas of how I can restore device? Is there a setting in CyanogenMod roms or in the installer itself?

I will respond. It will get moved anyway. First we need to know what you did step by step. Also is the phone booting? Can you get into download mode or recovery. (I know you said you cant odin but helps to confirm). What recovery/ rooting method were you using? As much info as possible, I know its a pain but we are trying to save your $600.00+ dollar phone it's worth it to be as thorough as possible. :fingers-crossed:
Can you still boot into recovery?

What recovery and verision of it are you using? for 4.3+ roms you need CWM 6.0.3.7+ or TWRP 2.6.1.0
I´m also having this problem. I can't flash any ROM. I went back to stock and tried again with those versions of recovery but nothing.

Dont worry i've been using my phone with official 4.1.2 for the moment haha, i want to install the United Basics Rom 4.4 and i found the twrp 2.6.1.0 can i use that? or i need 2.6.0.0?
It looks like according to the author of United Basics ROM, he's running 2.6.3.1, at least that's what his signature says.
DEVICE: Samsung Galaxy S2 (T-Mobile)
ROM: United Basics v4.0
RECOVERY: TWRP 2.6.3.1

I can't seem to reboot into recovery correctly. Every attempt just lands me back in the stock firmware. Rebooting from there to recovery via adb just gives me the Motorola warning.

No dice. Rebooting to recovery even with that just leaves me staring at the boot image.
EDIT: I remember reading that those who took the KitKat OTA got a different boot image that makes going back to Jellybean difficult, if not impossible. Could that have anything to do with this?

Bah, pay me no mind. I was trying to flash a CWM recovery because that's what I'm familiar with. I tried the one you just named and it works fine.
Sorry about that!
Just an FYI I couldn't get rashr to even look for the file so I tried flashify and it installed recovery with ease.
Thanks for the links attack. I don't like to try these flashing apks without a recommendation.

Are you Fastboot flashing?
Guys KEEP IN MIND:
These are not officials, these are fairly beta builds. You will get errors, I was hoping this would reach some crack-flashers.
That's basically who this is for.

How can we get onto official CM then?
I know it has something to do with the kernel. We can't downgrade the kernel to the one CM is using? Or we have to wait until CM move up to kernel 3.4?

The latest Nightly is from February, which is 4.4.2.
Honestly keep checking that website, and check XDA.
Since the bootloader has been unlocked there should be a lot of movement / action in the dev section.
I would honestly not flash anything older, I mean feel free to mess around w/ kernel that are newer than 4.4.2 on CM.
I can't promise anything if you're on stock. I hope that helped at least a bit.
Didn't think this deserved its own thread, but could someone on 4.4.2 upload their systemui.apk real quick?

I was, but in the end I followed @ATTACK 's advice and used the apps from the Play Store. My impatience and forgetfulness caused me to butt my head against a metaphorical brick wall a few times, but I managed.
