what does external side mean? i put it on the root of the sd card

Go into file expert , find the rom you downloaded under the sd card , then either copy it or move it to the external folder under the sd card. Then when you go into cwm and select file from sd card it'll be there. I had trouble with it when I first done it too

There is an OP with the Gingervolt thread that explains everything in very good detail.

Copy it from /sdcard and move it /_externalsd. Then you are going to want to boot into clockworkmod, either by downloading quick boot from the market or by powering down the phone and holding power + volume down. Follow the instructions for the ROM installation and enjoy!

CWM recovery not seeing deodexed .zip

Like it says in the title I have downloaded kejar's deodexed debloated but when I boot to recovery it doesn't show my downloads folder or any folders at all except backups in nandroid. So I renamed it to update.zip and moved it to the root of sd I tried navigating to it through choose from sd but no luck still. Then just as a shot in the wind I tried running install update.zip from sd since I knew everything was in place for that and still no dice. Oh I have also tried restrapping and tried again. Anyone else having this issue or know what I can do?

Your moving it to sd card not sdcard-ext, you got to remember the sdcard is actually the phone, sdcard-ext is the sd card. Just move the file then try you should be good

Help! Forget to copy zip file in root before flash

Hi,
I am trying to update ATT Captivate from Froyo to Gingerbread. I first copied zip file into sd and flash back to stock JF6 rom. Then I did a facotry reset which erase everytthing on SD and I forget to copy zip file back again. I then used Apex flasher to flash GB 2.3.3 bootloader and the kernel. Now I can get into CWM recovery but there is not zip file I can flash. Does this happens to anyone before and what is the solution?
Thanks
you should be able to mount your sd card from cwm and drag the zip from your computer. I haven't tried it yet myself, but I saw that it was possible on one of the mobile tech reviews.

Yes it works.
I do it all the time while testing, get finished compiling an apk and throwing it in a zip, then get too exited and boot into recovery before I copy it over
Mounts and storage> mount USB storage

Simple take your sd card out of your phone and put it into a card reader or something else that you can move it from you computer to that sd card then after you move it put the sd back in your phone and boot into cwm flash the exit recovery zip
also thanks for using the search feature

external SD needed for root/flashing?

Hi guys,
I want to root and flash custom roms on my Galaxy Note that is currently on stock Touchwiz rom with android 4.0.3.
Do I really need an external SD card for some reason? Can't I just install the files for rooting and flashing custom roms on my internal storage (and in which folder should I put them?)
I've rooted my HTC Magic and HTC Desire Z in the past, but have no experience doing these things on a Samsung device.
Thanks!

No need of External Card. You can do all the things from your Internal SD Card
I just tried to root my Galaxy Note using this method http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-no...on-galaxy-note-gt-n7000-no-computer-required/.
I used an external sdcard as shown in the video and did everything he did in the video.
I just got into the stock bootloader and managed to install CMW.zip from there. But once i’m in there my phone just can’t seem to find the 3 zipfiles that I’ve put into /sdcard/external_sd. When I got in CMW and I clicked “choose zip from sd card” and then clicked the ‘external_sd’ folder I got the message ‘No files found’. When I clicked “choose zip from internal sd card” I got “E: Can’t Mount /emmc/”.
What’s the problem? I already tried unmounting & mounting my sdcard in CMW.. I also see the 3 files when I’m browsing through my system and storage folders..
Thank you!!!

Which CWM version you are using? Did you wiped in CWM?

Place the CWM.zip in the internal memory? I had the same issue it did not detect the cwm. Zip file.Actually In my case it didn't even showinstall from external sd.Hope this helps.Cheers

In some CWM version, internal and external SD location is swapped. Maybe you can try opening internal SDcard to locate your external-SD card.

First of all
This method is dangerous.
Read above what jonpaslim said.
Follow Root Galaxy Note from second line on my signature for safe Rooting.
Thank you all. I was using CWM recovery v5.8.1.5. I'm gonna try a different kind of method. Thank you for warning me. I'll be around to tell you I succeeded.
Big thanks

Thank you guys! SO..
So all I should do is:
Reboot SGN into "download mode" (Vol down + Home + Power))
- Start pc ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select the "SGN_XX_OXA_KJ1_FACTORYFS.tar" file (I downloaded it from the Dr.Ketan guide)
- Connect the SGN to computer
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot TWICE
- Done ---> My phone is rooted and I can continue using my phone now with the stock ICS Rom that was already on it???
Thanks everyone for your help! :good:
You will b on gb rom by this. U need to use mobile odin to update ics from there.

broken screen need files and a rom backup

Okay so i was working in the garage and my captivate got bumped off the table and fell flat on its back and webbed out the screen (DAMN IT!).
Lucky i got 2 more sitting as backups.
My problem is its stuck in fast charge and i cant use the screen to get out of it and cant see anything (the screens finally faded so cant tell if its in recovery or not)
Is there any app or method i can use to force it in to mass storage mode or something to extract my files (i don't know all the directory's or id use adb and extract each folder) also there a way to do a rom backup so i don't got to start over from scratch with all my tweaks iv done.
Sorry if theirs a post for this i looked and didn't see anything for my series (didn't check newer models yet but going to after i post)
