Help! Don't know what to do. Downloaded the latest PA update via OTA on my GNEX. Tried to install it, but it doesn't work. Now, my phone is stuck in CWM recovery.
When I try to install it, it says:
Warning: no file_contextsset_metadata (its long...but its stated like that)
E:// Error in the zip file name
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Help. I don't know what do. Sorry for disturbing you guys. Really need your help. Can't use my phone.
I tried reading about Status 7 fix. But don't know how to add the zip file on my phone as its stuck in the CWM recovery and can't access my phone storage on my laptop. Please guys, help.
Nvmnd. Found a fix.
Use twrp since cwm is not supported by the ota app

Have you tried using the "Mount USB Storage" option under mounts and storage? Could help you access you SD Card from your laptop.

That doesn't work on nexus devices. Adb push or adb sideload are the options.

If you're talking about flashing .zip's in Recovery mode, you just use the "Install zip from sdcard" option instead of the "Apply update from sdcard" option to flash your update files.
As for the sdcard mount problem;
What exact model is your defy?
Can you mount the SD card from the launcher via; Root Browser or ROM Toolbox?
Can you mount the SD card from your computer when the phone is at the Launcher?
Can you mount the SD card from your computer when your phone is in Bootloader mode?
I think I had this problem a while ago but a Quarx nightly update fixed it...
Hi, I am trying to install cyanogenmod 9 on my HTC One x. so far I am stuck in aboot loop after flashing the ROM onto my phone. I realised this may be because I have not yet sent the ROM zip file onto my internal sd card. This is confirmed when in clockwork recovery, I choose zip file form SD card but there are no files found. My question is, how to I drop the ROM file from my pc onto my phone using an usb cable? Is this even possible while I don't have a ROM installed on my phone (thus being unable to use HTC sync)?
Thanks in advance.

You can mount your SD-card in CWM. Just enter mounts and storage and select usb storage.

Yes, but you do need the latest version. 5.8.4.0

when I select "mount USB storage" I get an error message saying:
E: unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory)
I am using the latest version of CWM.
I'd be looking to flash the RUU for your phone to at least get it working again and then start from the beginning

Are you sure? Because you get that error if you are using a old version. Which version number are you on if you enter CWM?

If I recall correctly I got that error once with the newest version, too, but when I looked for the HTC storage on my computer it was there. Do you use Windows?
hey guys,
i wanna completely reset my one x via hboot or fastboot. is that possible?
i have the issue that my system got chrootet to /sdcard/0 and now i have lots of trouble finding my data or using cwm. i cant even mount usb via cwm oder restore my old backups
thx
Why? What happens if you mount usb storage in recovery?
Which ROM are you using?
i upgraded from cm10 to 4.2.1 so my sdcard got chrootet to /0
if i try to mount usb it says "unable to open lumis file" or sth
also i cant see any of my backups in cwm cuz cwm thinks my sdcard is /sdcard, but it actually is /sdcard/0....
i already reinstalled cwm but nothing changed
my rom is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2013506&highlight=rc8 RC8 version
Flash CWM 5.8.4.0. The error will be gone.

Does it actually say 5.8.4.0 in recovery?
Give me the full error message you get. It's "ums lunfile", right?
TT is right ! Flash the new cwm recovery correctly and transfer everything froms sdcard\0 to just sdcard ..... this method definitely work .... :thumbup:
Hello,
I don't know what cause this , but I can no longer flash any roms. It says unable to mount USB storage,
I am using TWRP.
I am able to do backups, but it doesn't allow me to flash a rom.
any advise will be appreciated

Sounds like TWRP is corrupt, have you tried CWM to see if the problem exists there also?
As far as trying to mount usb from TWRP, I have never got that to work.
Hello there,
I made the mistake of wiping the internal storage using TWRP.
I am unable to enter recovery mode with the button hold options (tried all variations). The only way I was able to get into TWRP was adb reboot recovery. adb connection is now gone and the phone is stuck at the boot screen.
I can get a fastboot connection and the bootloader is unlocked. So I flashed the boot partition with a stock boot.img and the recovery partition with a stock recovery.img (even though I can't enter the recovery partition).
the phone never gets past the boot logo. Is there a way to directly flash a system.img vie fastboot, so that the device can be used? I am kind of stuck here.. read several threads for the past 2-3 hours, tried to reinstall TWRP as recovery but cant boot into it, etc.
I downloaded the B510.zip and was wondering if there is a way to burn an .img out of that and flash the system partition. But maybe that doesn't make sense at all.
Any help is greatly appreciated
update
Alright then, I managed to boot into TWRP!! a previous version worked.
it shows: Custom storage (498MB), Internal Storage (0MB), External Storage (0MB)
i am now proceding to install the zipped 510 rom from huawei. unfortunately i must have lost my microSD so i am lefti with sideload and otg.
sideload doesn't work because i can't find my device with adb. only fastboot seems to work, i dont know the reason but i understand its normal for my situation.
i only have an unpowered otg cable. from what i read that won't work, but I'm giving it a try and currently load the zip on a usb flashdrive.
do i understand correctly that the overall storage just appears to be 498MB? my partition table must be fairly messed up if that is the case. are there other partitions not shown by TWRP?
what do you recommend besides/instead of getting a microsd?
kind regards
update #2
I managed to mount the internal storage as mtp and copied the zip into the pictures folder, because i had no writing permission for the parent dir.
i tried to install, but the first time i got an error that cache could not be mounted. i cleared the dalvik cache and retried.
this time i had another error message as you can see in the screenshot.
adb still does not work, so sideload is not an option. i can also mount the custom partition but it is just under 500mb while the rom zip is 7xx mb
any help would be greatly appreciated
Resolved
I managed to solve it. Installed the paranoid android rom from the pictures dir. it was under 500mb and worked fine.

You cant install Huawei Firmware with TWRP! Only Repacked / Custom Roms.
