No image file ! - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello all ! i have a problem with my xperia x1 . when i try to update my xperia to wm 6.5 , it shows No image file ! any help please,

Happens to me if i try flash from MicroSD.
If i try flash with an 8GB Samsung (Class 6) card, i get that error.
If i use my 1GB MicroSD card with the .IMG file, it flashes fine.
I always use the USB method though, flashes perfectly all the time

try formatting your microsd card as a FAT or FAT32 file system.
before placing the img onto your card.

I've this problem to!
I tryed usb method! When all done, my MS 8GB died!
=/

i format my micro sd in fat 32 , it's work , but it's shows "loading" and he stop there ! what i must to do ?? please ? excuse 4 my bad english

Maybe is problem with .nbh file. Some error during download. Try to download it again and than flash new file.

Try to do with Rom Update Utility!

I had the same problem too!! :O
SO I used the software one.... via USB... it worked... but I would like if all I need is the SD card... So that it can work on it's own...
I feel like a serious problem might happen and brick the phone... lol

rename (ruu_signed.nbh) to (Kovsimg.nbh)

So, here is how to flash new ROM with SD card :
0. Make HardSPL on device
1. Download ROM you want
2. Format SD card in PC with FAT32
3. Copy .nbh file on root of your EMPTY SD card
4. Rename .nbh file on card. It MUST be Kovsimg.nbh
5. Turn off your device and put SD card in. (it woud be good if battery is >50% full)
6. Press and hold Vol down and Power key until you see 3 color screen. Than release keys
7. Follow on screen instructions
8. After flashing is over, HARD RESET device.
9. After hard reset, SOFT RESET
Voila, enjoy your new ROM!
(steps 7 and 8 are here to be sure that every thing is in it's place)
(Take NO responsibility for bricked device )

U just use Check Disk Local in PC scaning micro sd whit connect USB (remember tick: Automaticcally fix file....) > OK

reformat ur card with fat32 and choose the largest available file allocation unit size when you format (it should be 32k....)

Are you sure you put the kovsimg file in the root of your storage card?
Then hold down volume button down and poweron until the rainbow colors shows?
Are you using a Kingston (or other brand) microSD card?
You need a SanDisk microSD card.

Issues with Installing rom from micro SD

Alright I've searched a ton and havne't been able to come up with any results. I've come to the conclusion that I am either searching for the wrong things, or I'm just missing some major step somewhere.
I have been trying to load JustStable from my Micro SD card. It is a 2 gb formatted to fat32 and I have the HERAIMG.nbh file on the root of my SD card, and when I do a soft reset (depress button below volume slider with stylus) and hold the camera key, the searching for SD card flashes for less than a second then it comes up to the red, green, blue screen that displays my ipl and spl (which is 4.70 yang) and sits.
I'm really new to this, and this is my second rom install, but I really wanted to try JustStable, and I realize that I"m probably doing something wrong, but hoping someone can either point me to the right direction or let me know what I can try. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
personally i cant figure that one out. i always use active sync its easy get a flash center. extract the .nbh file from the rom. put the .nbh file in the "ruu" folder and run herald.uspl follow the step and your good.
I just did an install from my sd card.
I bought a usb card reader and reformatted my card to fat32 full reformat not the quick format. then copy the image over to the card and press the soft reset and hold the camera button. it should look for the sd card then tell you to press the volume button and it will read the image. When it is done downloading the image from the card it will return to the red, green blue screen. now press the soft reset and it should start up, but might take awhile for the first start configuration thing. Hope this helps
I think the problem is your phone isn't reading the sd card fast enough. Try creating a small partition on your sd card and placing the .nbh file in the smaller partition. This way the phone doesn't have to read the entire 2gb to find a small .nbh file. When I flash, I use a 1gb card and I have no problem. Then I swap out the 1gb card for an 8gb that has my files and cabs.

Which file did you rename to blacimg.nbh (that's correct and not blackimg.nbh)? Did you save it to the root of the sd card as suggested (although mine is in a folder and this also works)? Because the steps you are describing are correct and should work (work like that for me). The only thing I can think is that there is possibly something wrong with the file you are using. Is it one of your own cooked roms?

faced the same prob long time ago with a old 4 Gb card...no matter what i've did was not able to flash. However I sugest to reformat your sd card (FAT 32 and not on your pc/laptop, do it with your phone) and then try again after formating, altough it may not help. to be sure that you are not doing wrong try another SD card if possible.
Another option to check your self is flashing with ActiveSync after formating.
Good Luck
p.s. It seems this is happening often if you used your SD card in another device
I'd a similar problem while flashing on my old P3300
To avoid the problem, I'm using a 1gb micro sd dedicate only to rom flashing but with a single partition of 256MB.
dunno if this could help u
cheers
I was having exactly same problem today when I tried to flash - mine's 8gb mini SD which came as a part of package from Orange, U.K.. I ended up using normal USB cable but I was wondering why it didn't work...

Fashing with some big SD >4gb could generate some issue. Use one small dedicated to that and format it first in Fat32.
Hi Carl, thanks for your advice - it actually worked like a charm. I didn't really thing 8gb would cause this problem. I used just a plain 2gb ScanDisk card, formatted in Fat 32 and put only blacimg.nbh following normal procedures - thank you very much again!
My 2 cents
I had a similar problem not long ago with my 8Gb Micro SD that came with the card. I'd re-formatted it via the PC and altered the default settings based on a thread I read on here which was supposed to speed up access to the card. If I remember correctly it was changing the default allocation size.
Long story short, reformatted back to default settings and I was able to flash again from SD. IMO it's moreso the format of the card, not so much it's size as I never had a problem with flashing from card before tweaking it's format settings.
SD Card
I always flash from my SD card.
My latest card is a 16Gb class4 SanDisk, and I must have flashed more than 50 times from this. I always put my blacimg.nbh file in the root of the card.
Size of the card is not important, it just have to be formated in FAT32.
There are several reports that some brands of card do not work very well with Windows Mobile.
One time I purchased a Kingston card that simply would not work.

GenYBoot Android SD card problem

Hi,
Had been running throught the internet but can't find an answer. I have GenYBoot installed and Android 2.2.1 running from Internal storage of my HTC Touch Diamond. I have a problem with SD-card in Android which ... does not exist. If I want to save something it says that there is no SD-card - please insert the card. Device desen't see any additional storage than own memory (<200MB). There is no need to say it's anoying as it doesn't allow me even to download ringtones....
Could you advise please?
Thanks,
Andrew.
Solution
Just a simple trick
I don know what rom ur using, but i had da same prob
Jus delete every single file in the 4gb storage first, then put ur android files fresh ther and start the haret file from file explorer. This should do da trick, it did it for me.

Alright first download this HP FORMAT TOOL
http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,64963-order,4/description.html
second, copy all the contents from your INTERNAL SD only card onto your desktop
third, run the tool and choose between quick format [works for me all the time] or full format. Once done re-copy all your files back on the INTERNAL

Strange Sd card problem

Whenever i Install an gingerbread or cm7 Rom 2.3.7 on my x8,
after it the sd card in the phone is protected against writing, only reading.
The phone dont see the SD card anymore , and on my pc it see the card in my cardreader but i cant copy and paste things from it.
When i directly connect the phone with the sd card in it to my pc via usb, the pc dont see the sd card also.
Then when i flash back to the original Rom, the SD card is back normal like writing and reading and my phone sees the card.
Also i can Copy and paste like normal.
When i flash to froyo pro 24 (2.2.9 android) the phone also see the card like normal.
Looks to me something in 2.3 android versions mess with my SD card and set it on read only...
Does someone know what this could be?
Thnx in advance,
Henk
what sd card do you have? did you try format it?
It is the standard 4gb card that was in the box from the x8.
I install the roms via this sdcard.
I also formatted it but that did not solve the problem.
there is no ''lock''on the card, and after i flash it back to the original stock rom with flashtool it shows the card with no write or read protection.
In android 1.6 ,2.1 and 2.2 till version 2.2.9 i dont have the sd card issues.
I checked mini cm shakira,
herodroid
gx stock
prime hd and 2 other roms based on android 2.3.
Some i reinstalled and full wiped after the installation but that made no difference.
(offcourse i always full wipe/factory before installing the Roms )
In''storage settings it always say:
-total space
unavailable
-Available space
unavailable
-mount Sd card
Insert a sd card for mounting
-erase Sd card
erases all data on the phone Sd card such as music and photos.
(This is the only option that is highlighted and usable, and it erases only files when i tested it, it dont format the card)
I also tried to unlock the read only protection to place the mini sd card in the cardreader but i can't find an option to unlock that protection.
It only shows the files on the card but i cant copy and paste something.
(Both in windows7 and windows xp)
Some of them are on Stock kernel and the mini cm7 on an naa kernel.
(problem with the naa kernel was that i could not update the fix after flashing the rom in xrecovery,
since right after the flash from my sd card to mm7 my sdcard was on read only and write protected........had to reinstall the stock version by flashtool again and install xrecovery again and busybox,rooting, to start after with the flashing of custom roms again.
All of them did something with the sd card that it is read only when i place it in my sd card reader on pc ,and its not visible on the phone.
With some roms i can access the sd card via cwm or xrecovery to flash an rom zip but sometimes it says it cant mount''e'',
which is my sd card.
After i flashed my phone back to stock rom via flashtool, the sd card is visible again on the phone and not read or write protected.
Also on froyo pro 24(android 2.2) i dont have this sd card problem.
Could it be that there is some kind of driver for my sd card so that my phone reconize the sd card?
I really don't know what this issue could be and im stucked on 2.2 now.
you're using 2nd ext partition?
if yes, trying to solve it and boot via cwm and format it using partition sdcard (advance > partition sdcard) you need to backup your data first
if not using 2nd ext partition, try format using this http://hard-disk-low-level-format-tool.software.informer.com/ but i'm not test it yet
maybe u must check and repair your sdcard
1. try with another sdcard
2. make sure if your sdcard format is FAT
or
3. backup your sdcard data to your pc, then format it!
it must be work
Your idea doesnt work

Maybe the ROM doesnt have the necessary drivers. Any idea on how to install them?
Go to following directory via a root explorer app:
Root/system /bin
Find this file:
Fsck_msdos
Delete & Replace with froyopro's disk checker.(same file in froyopro rom)
Yes,this is the file which scan & fix ur sdcard For errors in startup.
This must help u.
