Hello everyone, I am new on forum and this help urgently so I have to ask this here..
I was updating to gingerbread following this tut and had problems with last step which is "Re-“Stocking” Yer System…". The actual problem is that I transfer my .zip to tab and later in Recovery mode I can't find it "“install zip from sdcard”.
Is there any other way to do this or where's the problem cuz I am pretty sure I know that I've put file there lol
Did you put the zip on internal or external?
Why dont you just use odin/heidmill to flash the stock gb

First step is "install zip from sd card" then "choose zip from sd card". in the last step even if it is on the external sd you will be able to find it. Done several times with the zip on a folder I created on the external sd called downloaded.

It's on internal and I see other folders (like on PC) there but no sign of my .zip ...
It's my first touch with Android so I am not sure what do u mean by that
EDIT: Sorry guys for bothering u for such a stupid thing, I found out what the problems was.. It wasn't .zip file, it was .rar... Ah, I really shouldn't do such things tired at night. Thanks guys anyway, from now on I'll look better

Thanks in advance
this is my second post on the forums here. i am having issues navigating these forums. i see there is a wealth of help here , but i cant seem to find what im looking for..
question 1 :
where can i find a link to all these cool roms im reading on ex: froyo,honeycomb ect.., and also a link to clockworks recovery...internal type stuff and sd bootable stuff
reason im looking to copy all into a folder on my pc so i have them at any given time i wish to do a cool thing to my device..
Question 2 :
can i , after getting said files , make a clockwork recovery and place multiple install zips on the same sd card
ex:
clockwork recovery burned img with, HC zip , Froyo zip , cm7 nighly zip ect.. -- so i can boot into recovery and then load file of my choice..
Question 3 :
also the unroot method for the auto nooter of 1.1.0 is that the same as all the others i have seen online ?
currently im rooted 1.1.0 at some point ill unroot to take the update that is supposed to be coming out then ill reroot and start flashing away.. i just wanna make sure i have all the file i may need on hand ...
i have an 8 gig class 4 card to work with
again thanks in advance,
Cary

1. Power off phone
2. Power on and hold volume down key to boot straight to recovery
3. Try flash again
Might be wrong here but I thought that to flash a rom you put it on the exteranl sd card and reboot in to recovery and then choose install zip from sdcard and then choose your file. there are a few files which you rename to "update.zip" and follow the process you have done but I sure a rom flash isn't that way.

OP cannot mount sd-card in recovery. What I mentioned was a workaround to enable mounting of sd-card. Once OP is able to mount sd-card then he is able to flash rom.
You need a physical SD to flash via CWM...

Yeah that's right you should put the whatever.zip somewhere on an external SD card. CWM cannot mount internal SD yet...
(just summarizing hat you guys above me said because OP might get confused )
Yeah u can only put a rom on by using an external sd card not the internal

Hello, just wanted to discuss a quick issue im having with my Samsung Captivate.
So its been about a few weeks since ive been on Phoenix's latest rom (js8). Ive been having the urge to go on to a gingerbread rom so i clicked on to the installation steps on how to flash the latest Miui rom (1.5.6 RC8b) So i finished the first step which was step 4 (since 2.2 roms start out at step 4) On the second step after i finished formating everything and going to Flash Miui RC2.zip. I noticed i put the Miui RC2.zip and RC8b file on my External SD card and not my internal SD. I cant flash the Miui RC2.zip file because my phone wont locate it in the Install From Zip option. Im pretty much stuck in the Orange Clockwork Mod recovery now. The other thing that sucks is i cant mount my phone (usb wise) to try and move the files back into my internal SD so i can download the files to continue on to the next step. I really need help! seriously. Ive already tried moving the files in Android/ music folders/ data/ in my external SD card, but the phone wont recognize it in those folders. Really need help please! I dont want to stay in recovery forever!! :/
the DEV are isnt the place to ask for help!
use CWM
mounts and storage> mount USB
copy files from pc to X:/sdcard/ this time!!!!
flash it.
next time post QUESTIONS IN QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
next time post QUESTIONS IN QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Download Odin one click and go back to stock (2.1), then go back to the MIUI page and start at step one.
and what does
"Ive already tried moving the files in Android/ music folders/ data/ in my external SD card, but the phone wont recognize it in those folders."
have anthing to do with your problem?
music? huh
you are flashing a rom
roms can only be flashed from internal sd card.
from sdcard folder or below. not above
I'm just in big need of help, ill remember next time not too. If you didn't read it all, i said that i couldn't get it to work using mount storage/ mount usb. My computer isn't recognizing the device , and i have my Samsung drivers on my computer, so idk why its not working.
I was just saying to see if i could at least make it possible, and i found it out it couldnt. I cant get it back in my internal SD directory.
fuhhhhhhhhhh* i really have to go back to 2.1? i guess i have no choice :/
You could also set you phone to download mode and Odin whatever tom and kernel you like. Miui is still beta, I suggest you use either stock GB or the other custom ROM.

Thanks for the suggestions killer! to everyone else, i went back to mount usb/ like TR told me to do, i restarted my computer and plug it in usb and it worked, put files back and flashed, im on miui, thanks for the help and the suggestions!

Please go through this article to falsh CM7 without any problem... It also has got solutions to most common problems user get while flashing...

Also, make sure you don't copy the zip file inside any folder. Copy it to /sdcard/ and everything will be fine...
I can't see the Zip file in Mobile Odin Pro
If we are talking about stock ROM, unzip it. It contains md5 tar files.
Also I don't think you can use zip with mobile Odin.

you have a CWM file that is flashed via recovery NOT a standard stock/odin rom flash
just go in recovery mode
choose "install zip from sd card"
choose "internal sd card"
then choose the .zip file
press yes and wait
