stuck in recovery now what?

I updated clockworkmod recovery through rom manager. Rom manager said the install was successful. So then I boot into the recovery to flash the cyanogenmod 10 preview build. I do all my wipes data, cash, exe. Then I go to install the rom and I realize now with the new recovery I can’t install/restore anything from /extsdcard (external storage). It only has the option to install/restore from /sdcard (internal storeage) which would be fine except all my roms/backups are on my micro sdcard (external storage). I have already wiped everything so now I can’t boot my phone to fix it. Is there a way to install the old recovery after I have wiped everything. I was thinking about using Odin to flash the old recovery in download mode again (like I did when rooting) but I am not sure if this is ok to do. I tried mounting the internal storage to my pc to copy the files I need from my computer to my phone. When I plugged it in the box in the bottom right popped up and said installing drivers and they were successful but when I try mounting (anything) the computer does not recognize it. So I can’t transfer the files. Would someone who knows more than me give some advice please?

While youre in recovery, can you mount through the mounts and storage option? Im not on the recovery you are talking about but if you can mount it you can throw the rom on that way. If you cant do that you should be able to just boot up the rom thats currently on it and mount it that way. Just because you wiped everything doesnt mean that it wont boot up, it just cleared all of the data. It should load up with your previous rom.
Thank you very much. It gave me more insight on what was going on. I have my phone back up and working. I was able to flash the old recovery with odin and i hope this information will help someone else in future as well.

TWRP or CWM wont see roms

I had a complete disaster and lost everything. I have mounted the sd as usb storage and put a rom onto it but neither TWRP or CWm will see them .
Sideload fails in TWRP and every time I try to push i get an error telling me that /data/media/ is a directory ..please anyone got any ideas ? I cant RUU as im on H3g and there isnt a JB one released
Mount the sdcard, copy the rom.zip to the root of the sdcard. Reboot the recovery and install the rom.

Thanks but as I said in the post I had done that but TWRP and CWM would not see the ROM's. .
It turned out to be the file system on the sd card. I formatted it to fat32 and the recoveries then saw the ROM's .
Ah check. Well i had a similar issue a while back. Copied the rom and tried to install, also not visible. Rebooted the recovery once and that probably rescanned the sdcard
But good that its solved :thumbup:

[Q] Galaxy Gio bricked need help !

Hi all,
I got sick of Android 2.3.3 on my Samsung Galaxy Gio so I decided to root it and install CM 10.2. I followed a trusted root precedure and ended up with my Galaxy Gio beeing rooted. Then I went on to installing Clockworkmod (again using a trusted method).... I followed the guide exactly, but the only problem I ran into was that I didn't have a "root" section/folder on my SD card... So I just put it into the card with all the other files (not into any folder) . I ended up with "Superuser" installed and I then installed "Rom Manger" and gave it superuser permitions. Then I went on to installing the ROM (again following a guide) . I transfered CM 10.1 ( for my device) and gapps 10.1 and put them into the SD card. I entered into recovery mode but for some reason I didn't enter itno Clockwork MOD ( I noticed no change in the recovery esthetics, but I carried on anyway...) I went onto part 8. - Backup and Restore but didn't see that option so I skipped it.. (I know I should've stopped here :crying: )... ) so I went onto part 9. - Wipe Data/ factory reset so I did that and then went onto "apply update from sdcard". I selected CM 10.1 but it "aborted" so I tried again and then again and in the end ( after no succes) I decided to "reboot system now" but after multiple tries I never got past the Galaxy Gio "loading screen" . Then I got really frustrated and tried to undo things by randomly flashing gapps, CM 10.1, the Update.zip (which I used for the rooting) and then I wiped the Cache... All leeded to nothing and now my device is bricked Please give me some advice
Thanks !
First thing: Keep calm.
Second: It's not bricked
So: You havn't installed CWM Recovery, right? Put the update.zip(clockwork mod recovery zip file) onto your sd card -> run up recovery mode on your phone -> choose "apply update.zip"(or sth like this) and select the update.zip -> since you followed up guides you know that you need to format your phone's partitions to ext4 format so you probably have "ext4formatter.zip" file from our MMB team, install it using "install zip from sd card" in recovery -> restart recovery -> "wipe data/factory reset", choose "wipe data/factory reset" -> find "format system" command and use it too -> choose "install zip from sd card" again and flash CM rom -> wipe data again -> done, should work.

Hi. The real problem here is that I can't "install zip from sd" - I just don't have the option in the recovery and Clockwork mod recovery didn't boot up I just can't do it.. And I don't have an "ext4formatter,zip"

Download version 5.0.2.7
After installing cwm just flash rom, it MUST work - otherwise you're doing something wrong.
Got it !

[Q] HTC ONEX softbrick can't adb sideload.

I tried to flash an incomplete .zip as a ROM and now I'm stuck. I know how to use fastboot and adb (I think) and I can't seem to find a recovery that allows for me to place a new ROM onto my SD card. If I use TWRP, then the recovery loads but does not register any touches. If I use the JB version then, ADB sideloading doesn't work.
Is there any way I could get a new ROM onto my SD card?
