Need a bit more info mate, do you mean CWM recovery or stock recovery? Also are you using a custom Kernel like Merruk? Which ROM are you trying to install? Tell us and we can help you

Updated CWM can't install zip from external sdcard?

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.

[Q][Android 4.0.4] Encryption Unsuccessfull

I recently upgraded my phone from Stock 2.3.6 to Maclaw 4.0.4. I accidently flashed the ROM twice using CWM 5.0.2.6 without mounting my SD Card (/sdcard)(Not sure if it is important). Anyway, after Wiping data/Factory reset and wiping the Dalvik Cache, I rebooted my phone. After a successful reboot, It displayed a message saying "Encryption Unsuccessful" with a Reset button (which basically didn't do anything). What I did trying (Hopelessly) (using CWM) to remove this error was:
- Re flashing the ROM
- Formatting the sdcard and partitioning again
- Formatting everything (/system /data ....) and re-flashing
- Removing the battery (Hopelessly )
And with every step I re-wiped data and dalvik and rebooted with the same error.
I am thinking of restoring the stock rom and then re-installing this ROM but I'm not sure if it will be useful.
So any suggestions?

Didn't work! I did it step-by-step.
I posted my logcat, check updated first post.
Any Idea how to push the needed file to this folder via ADB?
Not again! First full wipe then flash ext4- formatter.zip then flash rom.

From where do I download ext4-formatter.zip?
ext4-formatter.zip says (Status 6) Installation aborded
Note that I'm moving from stock 2.3.6 to 4.0.4. Does this matters?

Where are you getting the ext4 formatter file from? If it wasn't designed or compiled specifically for the Galaxy Gio, it may not work. Have you tried the file found on this thread? It may be rare, however the ext4-formatter.zip file you downloaded could have become corrupted. If the file on the link above doesn't work, google 'Galaxy Gio ext4 Formatter' and some results should pop up.
Or instal phiexz cm7.2 there is his ext4 formatter inside :screwy:

Have you tried taking out the SD Card and put it back in?

My tablet won't mount my sd card

So,I have rooted and installed my sm t210 with the SEAL v4 rom,and i want to try another one,the svelteNole,but when I get into the philz 6 menu,it won't mount my external sd card,where I have my ROM. It says ; " E:Cannot mount custom path". And when I try mounting it :"Error mounting /external_sd!".
Please help and thanks in advance.
Why do you want to Mount your ext.sdcard.I never Mount my sdcard1.
Go to install ZIP.
Install ZIP from sdcard 1 ( its your ext.sdcard ) then select the folder and select the Rom.
It's all good now
Now it's good. I installed twrp. Then installed SEAL.
I wanted to mount my sd card because I had all my roms and kernels in it. It seems that Philz isn't for me.
Thanks for your help.
