Hello. I currently have 2 S4 minis (I19195). One works perfectly and is mine. I also have only one SD card. I was in the process of installing CM on the new one and I wiped the SD card by accident (it contained the CM installation and gapps package).
The SD card refuses to work with either device now and I don't have a card reader.
The device currently has no OS on it. It's got CWM working, though. I need to get it running ASAP.
Is there a way to a) fix the card or b)get the CM files on it somehow or c)install CM solely through odin?
EDIT: I should also mention it refuses to mount USB storage through CWM.
In CWM you should be able to use adb. Try using adb push to upload files from your computer to the internal sd

Thanks a lot for your reply, however I can't seem to find the option for adb in CWM.

You can either adb push a rom.zip to your internal sdcard. Or side load the zip

The problem is I have no way to access the internal sd card (other than odin, unless that's what you meant).
Also I tried flashing stock back onto it, which failed, and now I get a screen saying "Firmware upgrade enctountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I also seem not to be able to enter into recovery anymore, just download mode.

Boot into recovery and then from a cmd prompt on your pc type adb devices. It should show your device. If it does then, adb push rom.zip /sdcard. Where rom.zip is a rom you have on your pc and can push it to your device

Yep that's exactly what I did.
Anyway, I was just about to post everything I ever did to the phone to clarify. However I figured I should flash CWM once again and maybe get that to work.
After doing that and rebooting the phone EVERYTHING works, it booted straight into the OS and I just finished installing CM which works now. I'm not even going to pretend I understand what happened (and I have a degree in computer science...). Anyway, I'm very happy it works, and thank you both so much for helping me out!

I was trying to install a new rom but I wanted to reformat my sdcard first. I planned on reformatting, mounting the sdcard so my pc would pick it up, moving the rom I chose to the freshly formatted sdcard, then flashing the rom. I started by doing a full wipe of everything, then wiped the internal sdcard. The problem is when I try to mount the sdcard to transfer files nothing happens. I tried doing a restore using odin but it gets stuck at setup connection. Is there anything else I can do or is it completely bricked?

I'm not the guy who can tell you what you need to do, but I will tell you that I have read other posts by people in your position. There are ways to push the necessary files to your phone, either toolkits or command prompt type setups, sorry but that's all I have. Google is your friend though. Galaxy Nexus toolkit, start with that, it's around here somewhere

You cannot mount the sd on the gnex through recovery. There is no SD to mount.
To move a file to your phone you must push it with adb

Since there's no rom on my phone, would I need to be in recovery or bootloader to do that?

Have you installed adb drivers? You probably should have done this already, unless you used a toolkit to unlock and root...
To install drivers, download the naked driver located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20058157&postcount=1
Then, follow this guide to install them correctly.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29044502&postcount=735
If they are set up correctly you will be able to push the rom to your internal storage booted in recovery with adb. A list of adb commands is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1812959
If you aren't comfortable with that I recommend that you flash the stock images to your phone with fastboot following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
This should be all the info you need. I'll be around to answer questions you may have. Just post them here.
Good Luck.

None of the info I gave you has anything to do with the toolkit. If you want to use it I cannot help you. Sorry. If you want to read my thoughts about toolkits check my sig.
However, If you follow what I posted in post #7 I will help you though the process as long as it takes.

I cant follow the guide you linked to install the drivers, because it instructs me to enable usb debugging...I have no rom installed on my phone so I cant enable it.
OK. I'm not sure if you can install the driver without debugging activated. But, I know you can install the fastboot driver when booted in the bootloader because I have done it.
1) Boot into the bootloader. (power + vol. up and down)
2) Connect to your pc
3) Open your device manager and you should see "android 1.0"
4) Right click on that and choose update driver.
5) Choose install from my computer and then install the naked driver.
6) Click done and then it should show Galaxy Nexus Bootloader Interface.
You will now be ready to flash the stock google image. Follow this guide.
You'll be up and running again. You can then flash a custom recovery and ROM if you so choose. OR just roll with stock.

I'd stick with el daddy. .he seems to be directing you in a way that gets you away from that stupid kit and you're learning the proper way.. .with adb. Next time something happens you'll be far better off.
I got it situated and fixed with a different toolkit but I appreciate all the help. I couldnt get it going with adb, everytime I would try to open adb in command prompt it would open for a split second then crash. The toolkit I used uses the adb on my pc though and it worked just fine.

Because you're not supposed to open up adb by double clicking on it.
You're supposed to navigate to the location where it is using CMD and do commands from there.

Go to the directory where you have adb.exe
Shift+Right Click the blank space (Don't click any files)
Click Open Command Prompt Here
Now you can use all the adb commands there.

Hi everyone, i have medium to advanced experience with flashing tools, android drivers, adb, fastboot, recovery mode and so on.
This evening once i installed the OTA Update for my Galaxy Nexus (which was running Android 4.2) the process failed at the end (as usual -.-) and i got stuck at bootloader.
I've wiped it completely ending up with no OS installed on it, nothing on SDCARD (Internal storage in this case).
The problem is that, i have no drivers installed on my PC for this phone.
I've already downloaded the latest version of Android 4.2 to flash (.zip), but there's no way i can transfer the file to the phone without the drivers.
I already tried GNex toolkit but it's stuck on "waiting adb device" (i have no fastboot drivers installed and can't install them because i can't find a easy way to do so).
NexusRootToolkit fails on pushing the zip to the phone and flash also won't work.
Any idea of what can i do now?
I may even pay on paypal for a quick help to get my phone back on working
Get into the bootloader and use fastboot, or if you have a custom recovery installed (sounds like you don't) then you can adb push from there. ADB doesn't exist in the bootloader, only fastboot. Those are your options.

Actually i do have a custom recovery which is CMW, but i can't seem to get my internal storage mounted using i'ts options.
I will try to push the .zip using the ADB on the recovery mode.
After checking the logs i can now see :
Enable to mount /usb-otg
(Using NexusRootToolkit i just flashed TWRP as recovery mode)
Solved : adb push <romname.zip> /sdcard/<romname.zip>
After the push was completed, i flashed the new .zip using TWRP in recovery mode.
Has anyone found a solution to this? Same thing has happened to me and I'm freaking out.

If you have the experience you say you have why do you use a Toolkit? Just learning for myself.
Look for efrant posts, they are the best and most comprehensive even for medium-advanced experience.
With him you will learn everything you need to know, including getting out of trouble and out of.............toolkit.
Just in case (you never know in life) do you have android-sdk installed on your pc?
Good luck in your learning curve ( I am still and will always be in it)

Yep, i do have it installed, mainly because i'm a developer myself ; )
I've solved it already, as i've said, pushing the rom using ADB.
The upgrade to 4.2.1 probably failed because i've had the phone rooted.

You are mistaken, root doesn't stop a system update. I can vouch for that myself, even though i know that it doesnt matter just from reading some people's posts around here.
You weren't exactly explicit on your first post, so I presume you didnt/dont have the correct baseband version for that specific OTA to apply. Very common.
Oh and if you've never been able to OTA update successfully, it's not "usual" for the rest of us. You should work towards becoming more verbose and objective when troubleshooting. That will make you more experienced.

Try installing the ADB Drivers manually in order for your PC to recognize it.
Have you tried putting it other modes such as Download Mode and check if your pc installs any driver?
You will have to ADB PUSH the OS image to your internal memory and use CW to flash the rom from the sdcard, but you will need the drivers installed or adb wont be able to see your phone

Use "adb sideload c:\users\edgar\downloads\abc.zip". "adb push" is for transferring files from PC to phone, not flashing.

adb sideload does both transferring and flashing within a single command. The "sideloaded" ZIP gets saved as "sideload.zip" under the root of the storage.

nope that didnt work either but i found a work around. i had never played with CWM's sideload feature. FOR FUTURE GOOGLE GOERS
NOTE: you need CWM 6.0.1.5 and above i think
reboot into recovery
select install from sideload
make sure drivers are installed (i used the universal android drivers here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514942)
open up adb in cmd (hopefully you have adb in your com)
and type "adb sideload <filename.zip>" without quotes or the little arrows
and you should see it start copying
I would like CWM and TWRP for using this in their recovery!!!!!

Hello. I need your help. I have the LG E980 with 4.4.2. I was trying to set this up as a spare phone but for some reason could not get an email program to work with my companies "Notes Traveler" program. I'm able to achieve syncing with my S4 active though. I oulled the email APK off of the S4 active and that resolved the problem temporarily. I read up and found out that the CM11 ROM would resolve this issue. Anyway, I installed a recovery program and did a nanodroid back up only to realize that my EXT_SD card was not being recognized. Si I did a factory reset now I get a boot error and can only get to the recovery program.
It will not recognize my external SD card and I'm afraid that possibly I corrupted the boot image or recovery? Any suggestions how to get out of this boot? Is there a way I can drag a Update.Zip to the internal SD card and it will completely over write boot and all files?

This Fix solved my boot only to recovery bug, but if your cwm is not reading your external, you could try sideloading it through adb if your cwm version has that. Copy the fix to your adb folder, connect your phone to pc, select install zip through sideload in the recovery, open adb, type adb sideload fix.zip or if nothing works just use lgflashtool and kdz back to stock.

Click install zip by sideload on cwm, copy the zip i linked before to the your adb folder,. Open Adb, and type "adb devices" to see if your device is detected. If it isnt. click here and download the naked drivers. If your device is detected, type "adb sideload filename.zip" . Just copy the filename and paste it after "adb sideload" in the command prompt, which is "adb sideload Zero_Misc_fix_factory_data_reset_recovery.zip"

If its not being detected once it boots up too then i have no clue what the problem is. Try flashing another rom and see if it detects it.

In recovery it shows "external sd card" then when I tried to flash it says " can't mount sd card". Also, I've tried my 64 gb card that's in my samsung and that does not work either. When it boots up it says "sd card inserted".
How do I flash another recovery or go back to stock recovery? I think something is corrupted in recovery because when I did a factory reset again to clear things up I got the boot error and had to do the process all over that you posted.
This is the recovery i always use, its philz touch. You can flash it the same way u flashed the fix, copy the zip to adb folder and sideloading it using adb sideload filename.zip. I cant guarantee that everything will work but if everything goes downhill, you will have to kdz back to stock using the steps from here . If the sd card isnt getting detected after boot too, i really have no idea what the issue is.

Flashed "TOT" file and all is good. I believe the bootloader is either locked or was corrupted somehow. Thanks again
Hey guys
so here's the deal. When I got my note 4 I just forgot about my One X but after some time I've decided to give it to my girlfriend so I wanted to put it back to stock for her. It didn't go as I planned and I put the phone away without success. Now I want to revive it but all I can do is access the recovery and fastboot. The problem is that on the last rom I had usb debugging disabled and the and the I accidentally wiped my whole phone. I don't even have the rom in the phone memory. I've tried adb push but adb can't find my device. Is there any chance to save it or is it lost forever?
You could try flashing through fastboot, if your computer recognizes the phone.

That's the problem I tried it several times but I can't see my phone. I've reinstalled all drivers, updated my adb files but nothing works.
Try plugging it into another computer while in fastboot and see if it's recognized by that computer.

go to mount option and choice mount sd card then wait about 1-2 minutes and you will see your phone in windows. And flash exactly Philz 5.15.9 not newer or older
