i've done a lot of searching and haven't been able to figure out why i cannot flash the latest roms. example, i can flash the nightly build 283 but not the most recent 295. the latest miui rom and the GB ones. everytime i try to flash i get E:Can't open /sdcard/xxx (bad). it is really starting to irritate the crap out of me. my boot loader is unlocked, hboot v.0.33.0012, and amon ra 2.0 recovery. i tried partitioning my sd card with 128mb swap, 1024mb ext3, and it hasn't helped any. if anyone has any ideas i would appreciate any help i can get.

switched to rom manager, still no luck, same message...
still don't know why, but i decided to swap my 32gb card for the 4gb that came with the phone, first rom i tried i got an error 7 message, the second finally flashed, so it has something to do with the sd card apparently... i just flashed gingerpassion, i'm going to keep on playing and see if i can figure out what my problem is

I wish I could say "Nice try, you're getting the hang of this forum thing," but unfortunately you still don't have a clue. This is not an issue that has anything at all to do with ROM Manager (which is really only a frontend to Clockwork Recovery, anyway). PLEASE "lurk more". That is, read posts rather than just making pointless posts. Then you will know a few things and be able to help people out.
(apologies to the OP)

That does certainly sound like an SD issue. I would recommend doing a full format of the 4GB (without doing any partitioning to remove any extra variables), and then trying to flash one of the ROMs that were giving you trouble. If it fails, there is an option under the Other menu in Amon_RA's recovery that will allow you to export the recovery log to your SD card. Do that, and post that log (or even just review it on your own) and we should be able to better determine where the issue lies.
Good luck!

Hey there guys I'm new to the site and also to the rooting of the phone and everything and Im not sure if this is the right place to ask this question but I have the crc1 build number 1.5 version firmware and I have tried to root my phone to use some themes from this website but I can't format my sdcard. When I right click and click on format it says "no disk in drive, please insert disk then try again" and it automatically unmounts my sdcard. Any reason why it's doing this? I hope someone could help me out here. Thank you!

Are you just trying to format to fat32 on your pc or are you wanting all the partitions (fat32, ext2/3/4, and linux-swap). Have you tried any of the commands in terminal? Have you tried Ubuntu? There is a tut in my sig on how to do it.
Try using a card reader instead of the phone. My wife's G1 does this for some reason. Mine doesn't however, not sure why cause I have a card reader and it was easier to do that than to figure it out.
Well I was looking at the ultimate noob thread about how to root. I pretty much want to use themes on here and also use custom boot logo's and things like that. But no matter what computer I try it says to insert a disk. I don't have a card reader on my computer. I'm just trying to format it to fat32 as of right now. Then after I do that I should be able to follow the instructions to root my phone.

Do it thru Ubuntu. Ubuntu will pick it up thru the phone. Know this for sure had to help someone out with this.
Isn't linux sweet, it just works.
Alright guys I will try that out now and let you know if it works or not. Thank you. After I root my phone should I follow the steps in the guide to update the ROM and everything like thaT?
Nevermind I fixed it.

Lol, actually I thought it worked but it actually didn't. I'm still stuck not being able to format my sdcard. I'm downloading that ubuntu program as we speak but I don't know how I will read the tutorial you got in your sig and do it at the same time. lol.
Nevermind guys, I noticed under "build number" it says CRC1. I have tried to format my sdcard on my computer and it says enter disk, I've tried rooting it through other videos I've watched and nothing. I guess I won't be able to get it to work after all. Thanks though guys for your help!
i recently upgraded my OS to android 2.3.3 from a website i found on here. it works fine and all but i was wondering since i have never really done any rooting or anything, and i was wondering how i would go about possibly adding a different ROM to my phone or if i have to take my phone all the way back to stock before i do it? Also since im a noob and all, i will need step by step directions on how to do it. i already have odin3 on my computer and used it to get my 2.3.3 update. is there a way to over lay 2.3.4 or any further update they might come out with and how would i do that? also my 2.3.3 update didnt really take any of the bloatware out or anything. i know taking it out makes the phone's speed faster and all, that might be something i'd like to look into doing. really any help from you more experienced ppl would help me out awesomely.
if u need my phone's upgrade info it is:
Samsung SGH-I897
firmware is 2.3.3
baseband : I897UCKF1
kernal : 2.6.35.7-I897UCKF1-CL273832
build number : Gingerbread.UCKF1
are you trying to format it via usb while it is still in your phone?? lol you dont 'have to' format your sd card to root device... you can format it after installing a custom recovery,
it just says to format it at first because if you flash a custom rom, there will be files on your sd card from 1.5ota and might mess with rom... so just format it after you flash the custom recovery
Hi
I have flashed my G1 T-mobile following the the one-click process in here! i have now root access. The ROM is CyanogenMod-3.9.11.2
After all that i bought a trascend SDcard 8GB class 6, formatted about 600MB to EXT4 using gparted on a live cd, winxp and my G1.
The first thing i noticed is that the phone is slower to load up. it stays about 35secs on the G1 logo and then move to android for a total of about 1min to be ready.
Second thing my free space on internal memory went from 38MB to 68MB, i believe somehow the phone moved the cache on the sdcard...if i install new programs they get installed on the phone memory as far as i understand...however i could be wrong on this. i never started the phone without sdcard since, I'm not sure if this could damage the phone in some way.
I would like to have some feedback on this (the slow boot and memory thing) if someone has experienced a similar situation.
I'm thinking to flash my phone again and move to a stable version of Cyanogen so that i can use app2Sd and Cyanogen updater!!
- how can i flash a new room, considering that i have the latest radio but not HARDspl. (as far as i understand the oneclick method doesn't change the SPL)
I was looking at using again the small oneclick software and flash the Cyanogen 4.0 this time, would that make sense since i have already root access on the phone?
thank you for the help
kirk
update
After installing and unistalling few softwares i found out that all programs are actually on the SDcard however the Mobile uses still the internal memory for the cache. This doesn't bother me for now since i still have about 68MB free. Basically if you install CyanogenMod and you don't have a partitioned SDcard all software get installed on the internal memory however as soon as you put in an partioned card all programs get transfered automatically after the first boot. At least this is what happen to me. Somehow i got what i wanted and because of this i don't need to flash my phone anymore... maybe I'll flash it again when android 2 is out, if i don't have to change spl, image recovery or anythingelse too risky
I used the 1-click method as well, and I just download the latest cyanogen rom, rename it to update, boot into cm-recovery and apply the update.
One more thing, the latest versions of Cyanogen's rom have auto apps2sd built into the rom. It will automatically move all apps to the sd card as long as you have an ext2/ext3/ext4 partition on your sd card.
Your still going to have the same boot time. It's still going to take awhile to boot, just because you have a custom rom doesn't mean it will boot faster. And to load a new rom either rename to update.zip and update or if you have the newest recovery then you can just flash whatever rom without renaming because you can flash any .zip file.
In reading your post I think you said you wanted to use the small 1 click software to download cm4.0 You are done rooting your phone you no longer need to use the 1 click software.
Just copy new rom (cm4.0.4) to sd card
unplug phone from computer
turn off phone
boot into recovery (home and power at the same time)
flash new rom
when you use one root, it flashes cm-recovery 1.4 so there is no need to rename, just put on the root of your sd and flash from recovery

Are you aware of any reason for the slow boot after partition of the sdcard??
is it the stock 1GB sdcard?
Cause it has to read from the sd during boot up and it has to run the script for the apps2sd

As far as i know i'm not using app2sd yet. I partitioned my SDcard ONLY after i flashed my phone. however like i said i think the phone is somehow using the ext4 partition for something.
You reckon this would be a normal boot time i mean it takes between 50secs and 1.05 min to be ready. Phone is stable as far as i can tell.
I myself am not concerned with the boot time, the ext4 is another filesystem that it has to read and recongize, you basicly have a little mini computer in your hands so how long does your pc take to load up, there are many files and system checks that it has to go through starting up not to mention all the settings and components it has to turn on
Bottom line, if you want something to boot up quickly than get a basic phone because there is a very good way to speed up a mini computer to do the same

Why did you root your phone? You have no desire to search to even do one of the most well documented things to your phone in these forums. What you need to do is take a DREAIMG.nbh file and put it in the root of your sdcard (or in no folders), then open up terminal emulator and type su then reboot bootloader once that happens wait for it to flash that image. Then you will have the most pimping room on your phone. Also you have amazing boot times. Everything you want.

Hi David
I had specific reason to root 2 different G1 and this is not to play with it or try a new ROM or even experiment new things. I may change my ROM again when a major relase is out (i.e. Android 2 if it has something that i need)
Going back to reflashing the phone.
You now suggest me to use DREAIMG.nbh which is actually mentioned on the guide "hoe to downgrade-root-flash your phone" here
....am I missing something here?? thank you for taking the time to reply anyway.
..I have read quite a bit on this forum and i decided to use the one-click method (because is the quickest and safiest one). I thought reflashing should be as easy. go in safe mode wipe and reflash it. Anyway for my nature i tend to ask/investigate one thing before go and actually do it. My questions are:
- if i press home power right now, considering that i have nothing on my sdcard would it take me to the safemode screen?
- Consequently do i need to have Cyanogen image revovery together with the ROM on my sd card in order to flash a new version of CyanogenMod?
Thank you
Kirk
you can boot into recovery at any time by pressing home and power when the phone is powered down. it will go into recovery no matter what is on the sdcard.
Also the recovery image you have on your phone does not determine what rom you can flash.
wow... i am at a loss for words...... do you even know why you did any of the things you did? did you even read the release notes for cyan's rom's? ALL OF THE ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS ARE THERE...
if you have an ext partition on your sd card....it WILL AUTOMATICALLY be used for apps2sd with 80%-90% of the ROM's out there today... ITS IN ALL OF THE ROMS' CHANGE LOGS/RELEASE NOTES

going into safemode wont flash anything.... i suggest you search and find out what exactly safemode is, especially since there was a thread only a few threads below yours detailing it.
All you need to flash a new ROM is the rom on your sd card and a working recovery, as well as anything that the ROM your installing has required which are noted in the changelog/release notes....
nothing else is needed on your SD card, except maybe specific partitioning, which will be noted in the ROM's requirements.
I try to help out here as much as i can when i have time (most of my posts are in Q&A helping out people) but it seems as though no one even bothers to look at the actual forums anymore. They just create an account, create a thread, bug people till a simple question is answered, and disappear forever.....
I came to this site simply to get roms, but i stayed because there was so much to learn and i created an account to help out people as well...i did all of my major modifications without asking any questions....all the questions are already answered somewhere...
i understand its hard to go through all the clutter, but it is starting to look as if no one even cares anymore
@B-man007 i am starting to feel like you do, i had my phone rooted and all that good stuff at least a month before i made an account just to download something uploaded to the forum. I wish i could see how many post i have in a ceratin forum bc i imagine at least 450 or 500 of them would be in this one helping people. Its getting to the point where i no longer care to help people and i thought i had a lot of patience. I porbably do but people are sinking to new lows with the questions they ask...
I think I have maybe 5 posts in dev, most of my posts are q&a and general, but then again half of those posts are from hijacking threads. I just got tired of answering the same questions over and over and over

Right then,
Already searched on this one and not yet seen a solution to my problem. I own a T-mobile G1 and my phone crashes after it has booted up, or will not boot up properly: either the T-mobile G1 screen stays on for 5-6 seconds then I get a black screen, or it boots up then freezes with a black screen, or it won't switch on at all.
I currently have:
T-Mobile G1 with Root
2.22.19.26I radio installed
1.33.2005 "Death" SPL installed
Amon_RA's RA-v1.2.3 recovery installed
MghtyMax "What a feeling" 1.9.1 Hero ROM installed
fat32, ext3 and linux-swap on class 6 8Gb sdcard
I can get to recovery (sometimes.....it doesn't always get that far) and fastboot, so hopefully it's not bricked. I have already tried wiping (ALT+W) and formatting the ext2 (from the option in RA's recovery menu and also via console); removing all the partitions and starting afresh recreating them (after removing them of course), and as I can get to recovery (sometimes) I have tried flashing a different ROM (SENSEhero 1.3.3 unthemed) but still get the same issue.
I have flashed quite a few ROMs recently and not had any issues, so any help on this one would be most appreciated!

well trying to solve the problem by trying another sdcard is not a fix... since some roms do rely on the ext contents for things to work properly. what i suggest is having the 3nd card completely wiped and partitioned correctly..then move a rom onto the card and flash like u normally would.
Thanks for the info.
That was one of the first things I tried. I managed on Tuesday to install AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.2_DRC92_rooted_base_v2.zip, and it worked for a short period of time, but it now crashes or doesn't boot up.

Something may be wrong with the phone itself
Try flashing the RC29 and seeing if the problem persists. if it does, then its probably a hardware problem. You can talk to tmobile or HTC about it and see what they say

Thanks for that. I assume if they ask me to return it to them to reflash the original bootloader and recovery screens so that they cannot tell I've been "playing" with my phone...
Haha well once you flash the RC29 you wont have to because it will all be stock. If Tmo replaces phones for missing text messages, which is for sure a software problem (yes ive seen them do this), then they definitely will for this issue.

If I flash RC29 (or RC7 for me) will this brick the phone as I currently have Death SPL. I'm sure I've read that somewhere on here?
Unrooted.......
I've now reverted back to RC7 (as I'm in the UK) and all seems okay....for now.
I will run it like this for a day to see if it still crashes or does anything funny. If it doesn't, I will re-root and start again!
Thanks for the help with this. I will update if it continues to crash.
Alright lets hope this fixed it lol
also it may be a little late but you should be fine flashing the RC7 as it replaces the SPL and radio

Now this is interesting, RC7 was fine. Re-rooted the phone, fine. Flashed AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.2_DRC92_rooted_base_v2.zip ROM, fine. Flashed Amon_RA's v1.2.3.img recovery, fine. This is where it gets fun, partitioned my card within the recovery to FAT32, ext2 and linux-swap, then rebooted into recovery. The phone crashed. So, I thought there must be an issue with the sdcard. Put in the stock 2Gb card with the RC7 DREAIMG.nbh file on and pressed camera+power to go back to RC7. It came up with an red code 00058002, then went back to the bootloader screen. It stated at the top that it was an EVT board. Searched all of the Dream Q&A section for EVT and absolutely nothing. Tried going into bootloader again and that screen started to warp and the graphics and pixels started to jumble up.
Any ideas?
wow.....it changed board types on you?
did you manage to flash cyan at all before that happened?
you should flash cyan and boot on it before flashing amonra's recovery.
you can then flash the recovery then partition the card and wipe just to be safe

I flashed the AOSP_ADP_1.6_r1.2_DRC92_rooted_base_v2 ROM and booted it up fully. Then using the Terminal Emulator within Dev Tools I flashed Amon_RA's recovery. All went well until I partitioned the sdcard. It won't boot up at all into the home screen or recovery, just bootloader, although it did this before when it first started crashing. I'm gonna leave it tonight and try again tomorrow.
Do you know anyone else on here who has any idea on this one? Seems like I'm the first!
This is probably an issue with the recovery itself...though ive never read about anything like your having.
ill bump this thread and see if anyone can help...maybe david can (ill tell him to get on here)
why dont you give a differant recovery image and dont try to partition just try with a fat32 sdcard on a cyan rom or something see what happens with that
Hi,
I flashed a rom trough recovery and i partitioned my SD Card.
Then I rebooted and came in a bootloop.
Right now I have the problem I can't flash something else, because I can't put any files on my SD Card.
Can someone give me a random rom for the nexus which I can flash trough fastboot please?
It's kinda urgent, because right now, I don't have a phone... :S
Thanks!
You do realise you're on the Nexus One forums right?
How, sorry!
My bad! my previous phone was a t-mobile pulse.
I'm searching a rom for the nexus one ;-)

Ahh Ok You can still move files to your SD card in pretty much all of the popular recovery images. I'd recommend Amon_RAs 2.0 recovery image (In the development sub-forum) which will allow you to mount the USB drive through it's menu and transfer files as per usual.
Questions:
Did you wipe when installing a new ROM?
Did you backup the old install of your system?
What recovery are you using?
Probably best solution to try and wipe via recovery again, restart phone.
If that doesn't work, fastboot flash a new recovery on your phone, AmonRa 2.0 would be best in your case, then mount your SD card and upload a new ROM zip onto your phone. I personaly recommend CyanogenMOD 6.1. remember to wipe your phone before you install or after.
Can't go wrong with one of the stock ROMs: http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Passion (Nexus One)/

Thanks! I deserved that! Maybe something wrong with my internet connection at the time - but probably just me.
So I have been trying to deal with this for a while now... It all started on a normal day. I come home and see my sprint galaxy tab (with ics) with a little message on it. It said that encryption had failed. From then on the device would boot loop. I have already read through other threads and tried flashing, repartitioning, I have checked the error messages via adb and I am sure my internal storage is dead. I partitioned my microsd card with an ext4 and 2 fat32 partitions, then I flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275031. Then I changed the vold.fstab to the appropriate thing. And it still boot loops. In cwm i cannot mount /cache, /data, /sdcard, or /sd-ext. I have downloading mode, recovery, and adb that I can use. I just cant seem to figure out what is going on. I am completely stumped here. Thx ahead of time for any help.

And another cdma tab bites the dust running ics...
Sounds like your internal memory went bad. This seems to be happening to a lot of cdma tabs that run ics. Only real fix that I know is sending it to samsung to fix. If you search the forums you'll see a lot of post of this happening to other people. What they all have in common is that I was running ics......

Hmm... perhaps someone should look into that 0.o
Anyone know a thread for installing android to the external card specifically on the sph-p100? Preferably with download links for everything you need that aren't dead lol.

I opened mine up and removed the internal SD (literally pulled it off).
I installed a stock ROM (via Odin) and it works, right now I'm trying to install ICS but its not as straight forward.

So I have been trying to deal with this for a while now... It all started on a normal day. I come home and see my sprint galaxy tab (with ics) with a little message on it. It said that encryption had failed. From then on the device would boot loop. I have already read through other threads and tried flashing, repartitioning, I have checked the error messages via adb and I am sure my internal storage is dead. I partitioned my microsd card with an ext4 and 2 fat32 partitions, then I flashed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275031. Then I changed the vold.fstab to the appropriate thing. And it still boot loops. In cwm i cannot mount /cache, /data, /sdcard, or /sd-ext. I have downloading mode, recovery, and adb that I can use. I just cant seem to figure out what is going on. I am completely stumped here. Thx ahead of time for any help.
