.. Alright I am wearing luck on my sleeves ... I wanted to try staxx hybrid ROM every thing was ready I followed the time tested procedure of installation
1. Reboot to recovery
2. flash abyss red touch recovery and again reboot to recovery, all red red and touch touch!!
3. wipe data/factory reset
4. The other two wipes.
5 Went in to install menu on abyss
Now fun begins! The ROMs , Kernel that I had stored on my external sd card where not to be seen , they just vanished. I searched every where and nothing, it just can't be seen. I had earlier did a back up CWM or nandroid back up or what ever that was, after trying for some time and failing miserably to get the glimpse of the ROMs i downloaded I lost all hope, and decided to restore the back up . I restored the back up and my phone is back .
6. Again I rebooted into recovery , this time it was CWM recovery ,obviously, I could see my downloaded ROMs and Kernels.
7. I could see my downloaded ROMs and kernels through File manager.
My question is 1) Why i didn't see my ROMs on Abyss 4.2 Red touch recovery kernel? and how do I resolve this?
2) I used my back up and restored it. Do i have to back up again? or this back up will work again, & again. Assuming, of course, I don't want the post back up
changes to be reflected once i restore again.
I wil be grateful if anybody can help me with answers. Have fun and Happy Flashing!

Not sure why you couldn't see it. DId you put ROM in root of Internal SD? Try putting it in Root of both Internal and Exernal.
Don't backup again. Do 1-4 and you should see your ROM when you choose install ZIP from INternal or External.
And not knowing about your ROM is it a CWM ROM- maybe you need Mobile ODIN?

Your kernel and rom is in tar files so it did not register.
Or put your custom rom and kernel in internal and external sd i think you will not miss it.
I was on criskelo v9, CF 5.6 LRG kernel. All the files were in zip format so perfectly flashable on abyss. I was trying to flash Staxx paranoid hybrid Rom. I just saved it on my external SD card not in a folder on a extsd card. Can that be the reason? Very weird problem,Albeit very dangerous imagine you wiped all and ready to install the ROM and there is no ROM what will you do. Luckily I had a backup what if I didn't had a backup I would have struck on abyss recovery! !

I think that is your answer - save on both internal and external just in case. HTH
Hi, what ever you had in ext sd card will be there only. i think you are not correctly accessing your ext sd card.
No dude.... I checked it 10 times, in fact I had no other option other then looking for them! finally I gave up, and was wondering what to do then it struck to me to restore back up and I did that and rest as they say is history
I did get few answers like
1. Abyss is a GB kernel and I flashed it on ICS things went wrong.
2.I didn't put them in a folder.
Not sure what exactly the issue was.... Now I won't flash abyss but still I am not sure which are safe ICS kernel to perform wipe data?

Custom kernels are safe to wipe like speedmod, cm9 etc
Stock ics roms are unsafe.

Only booting a ICS ROM with a GB kernel will cause havoc. But then you can install Abyss kernel for wiping data safely. Your procedure is also correct. My hunch is that at some place super-user permissions must have hindered the process.
If I have to check again what went wrong I have to flash abyss, wipe all 3 and then if I could not find the ROM again I will have to restore the back up. I want to do it but... Wondering is it worth the risk!

Today I checked it again when I was moving from criskelo to liquid black. I flashed abyss and I realized that it doesn't show external sd card. So ext sd card mount problem I guess but not sure why ? And now I am on Franco r3 kernel this kernel should be safe to move to cm10 in future or should I go back to GB all together .

Franco kernel has the emmc bug disabled so all together it is safe. Guess you can start working safely.
My Abyss Red reverses the two SD cards, so the Internal appears External and vice versa. This is well documented.
I've had no trouble using Abyss, so I think you just need to do a little more homework.
Hello,
I recently rooted my phone and flashed it with "PhilZ-cwm6 v5.00.4 with CWM 6.0.3.1 based recovery" and then flashed "Avatar ROM 3.0"
Before flashing ROM, i followed these steps:
1. Select ‘wipe data/factory reset’
2. Subsequently ‘wipe cache partition’
3. wipe dalvick
The installation completed succesfully and after reboot i face following problems:
1. Can't open gallery, camera, theme chooser etc as it says no external memory found.
I have a micro sd card of 2 GB and the internal phone memory is 8GB.
But in the storage i find this:
Internal storage
Total Space: 1.97GB
Available: 1.88GB
Internal Storage
SD Card
Total Space: 1.90 GB
Available: 149MB [As i have songs and other files in the card]
USB Storage
MOUNT SD Card
Insert an SD card for mounting [Cannot click on this option]
Please help as it was my first time that i flashed a ROM.
Flashed new ROM but still the same problem with memory
I tried flashing ParanoidAndroid ROM and then CM ROM but still the phone memory is not detected and hence cannot open gallery, camera....
Please help!!!!
After flashing these roms did you flash gapps?
Cm based roms do not include any Google apps such as play store, or anything, gapps includes these. You need to flash that first, then deal with your memory issue which I don't think you have.

Hello SpyderTracks,
I tried to access sd card using Root browser as well as ES file explorer but the folder is empty. I can view the data of extsdCard.
One more thing i have noticed is when i'm in recovery mode and try to install new zip from sd card, I can see all the folders which my phone memory has. Why is it visible at that time?
Please Help its really urgent!!!

Dear Sir,
I have installed custom ROM SuperNexus 2.0 milestone 1 at my gt-n7000.. I have rooted my cellphone using Philtz 5.0 version with CWM 6.0.3 version..After successful completion of custom Rom, my cellphone is not showing file manager, or my internal and external memory is not detected.
After going to Storage option, it shows Mount your external card, but it not highlighted so unable to click it.
Other thing I want to tell you that before installing above custom ROM, I took the backup of my jelly bean 4.1.2 ( I had installed it using odin to upgrade from ICS) using Philtz 5.0.. and when I used to restore to 4.1.2 JB from SuperNexus due to facing above mentioned problem, gallery is missing and setting option is also missing..
Please please guide me..
I will be grateful to you.
Warm Regards

I recently rooted my phone and flashed with a custom ROM. Now my phn memory is disappeared. How can I sovle it?pls help me
Hey, guys, I seem to have a predicament with my Verizon Bionic. I'm using Safestrap 3.11 to run AOKP 4.2.2 Milestone 1.
Now, my problem: these last couple days I have started to receive the "UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable." error. I constantly start getting messages telling me apps have stopped, and any changes I make to files or settings seem to be applied but on reboot everything is the same as it's been.
I tried deleting the ROM slot (I have AOKP loaded in rom-slot2) but even after I choose to load my stock ROM my phone boots into AOKP, meaning I can't boot into the stock ROM. I tried fixing permissions, and that doesn't work. I have tried to flash the latest AOKP nightly but whenever I place the zip on my phone's internal storage it disappears when I reboot as my phone reverts to how the filesystem was before. I haven't put an external SD Card in my phone yet.
I have tried factory resetting my phone through Safestrap, AOKP, and stock Android recovery to find there's no change.
Anyone have any ideas?
Edit: I tried using RSD Lite 5.7 to flash 98.72.22 FXZ JB but to no avail. Is there a way to manually wipe my data partition, perhaps via a Linux distro?
fxz to 4.1 and try again?

I think this was the same thing I saw on Titanium Backup Pro when I changed ROM slots (from Icarus to CM10.1.2) It says my device ID has changed, and offered to reset it for me back to the old number. I let it do it, and I haven't had any problems.
I think flashing a new ROM generates a new device ID, and this breaks all the secure storage encryption keys among other problems, which is why it's best to leave it alone or flash it back.

Well the main problem seems to be that I cannot change anything in the filesystem without it being reverted on restart. I haven't had an offer to reset it, and I cannot reflash, as there's no way to put a ROM zip on the phone without it disappearing when i reboot into safestrap. Even deleting the ROM slot does nothing.

just some suggestions:
i have done like 9 bionics with safestrap 3.x and only had problems iwth two, those problems went away after removing recovery and deleting the safestrap directory in internal memory from a PC, I had 0 memory available that was the problem , it all fixed after FORMATING "sdcard" (internal storage" from storage menu)
have you tried using an sdcard for storing the new rom instead of using internal memory?
try installing the newest safestrap (just overwrite if it wont let you remove the one you have).

I haven't tried using an sdcard, I'm going to try that next.
I can't boot into stock to remove safestrap. If I could, that would probably solve my problem.
Anything I modify using a PC just reverts when I reboot my phone.

i never tried but maybe you can remove safestrap recovery from a non stock slot, dunno what would happen but if i was in your case i would try.
Also try removing the safestrap directory from your pc (i know you said everything was back to same after reboot but didnt get clear if you tried removing the safestrap dir).
Probably the cleanest solution HERE
Hey guys,
I was running CM 10.1.3 and decided to go to Slim Bean 2.1. I followed the instructions, but when I rebooted instead of a clean install, I had all my old apps. Naturally, I went back to recovery and wiped everything again including sdcard and flashed Slim again (from external sd card). However, when I rebooted, again I had everything - old apps, music, photos... As you might imagine after this dirty flash the phone is quite laggy. Please tell me how to make recovery properly wipe the old data.
Any help is appreciated

What recovery are you running? I am going to assume CWM v6.0.3.1...
From main menu;-
Wipe Data/factory rest
Wipe cache partition
From Mounts and Storage menu;-
Format /system
Format /cache
Format /data
Format /sd-card
From Advanced manue;-
Wipe dalvik cache
Now install.
You assume correctly. I had already done that, but I did it again in the order that you described. No difference, I still get all my app, my wallpaper, and all my accounts are still logged on. That is strange. Is there another way to wipe the phone?

Yes, it's very strange. I have done that before, but never with such results. I think I might have to resort to a kdz flash of stock rom, but I'll wait a bit to see if someone comes up with a solution. Nevertheless, I will have to find a solution, because after the last several dirty flashes one on top of the other the phone does not work as it should. It is very laggy and with an even higher battery drain (which was the initial reason for a clean install).

I have to admit that I would look at doing a KDZ reflash to get everything back clean, then CWM and reinstall of the ROM.

too late now to go back to format and reinstall rom. just go in data/app delete everything in there. also in data/dalvic-cache. then if u know from system apps which ones u dont want , go delete them and then find their dalvic-cache in /cache/dalvic-cache.
then go delete from sdcard the folder android. then from sdcard delete every zero and empty folder. last one delete all data/data and reboot. nothing should be left from previous rom. now if u have more leftovers in data/media/obb or data/media/legacy, delete. (dont delete the legacy in storage/emulated...!). about the problem u had. did u choose wipe and selected manually to wipe all those or u chose to format all data ? there must be a choice to format everything. ( dont do it now it will delete everything ). if that doesnt work then fix permissions.
Somehow after several attempts it worked and wiped everything. I am not sure, however, if it works consistently.

I will certainly do that, but I have never used flashtool so far (kdz flasher, as well for that matter), So I just do not have the time to experiment right now, just in case if anything goes wrong. But I will certainly want to try a stock rom again.

Thank you, I will flash that to be up to date and ready for Kit Kat as soon as a stable build comes out
Can you please help me on this one? Yesterday i updated my nightly cm11 to the newest version. I didn't backup any of my data. It booted normally and i tried to restore my old Android-ID via Titanium, but suddenly my phone restarted and after retrying to restore the ID again, it didn't work and it said, it couldn't find any old ID in the setting storage. I remembered that i have some older Titanium Backups on my laptop and after it failed again with the new added backups, i tried to restore the whole setting storage in apps list in Titanium. At first, it didn't showed any effect so i tried to reboot it and now i'm stucked on a loop. I can't flash the rom, because i deleted the rom from my sd card to get more storage.
TL; DR: How can you get access on your sd by using recovery? If i plug my phone via usb, it shows me my 2 sd cards, but i can't open them. (when i mount usb storage, the 2 sd cards on my laptop just disappear)

You might have to try on another pc/laptop. You should be able to access them in recovery if you mount storage (sd).

Flashing it again didn't solved the boot loop . I tried older cm11 versions but didn't worked either. What can i do?

Have you tried clean flashing? If it doesn't work, you'll most likely have to flash stock kk4 without bootloaders and start fresh from there.

Since it was getting worse and worse (i tried to apply an old cm10 backup via cm), i wasn't even able to get into recovery mode. I flashed stock kk4 with odin but now it won't let me get to usb storage: Seconds after i plug my phonevia usb just to load or to load sth on my sd card, my phone shuts down and the green loading bar appears until a new reboot starts into the green bar etc...
Is this a common bug? I searched in the forums, but couldn't find this kind of.
I guess i have some weird mount/unmount problems since i even wasn't able to get into mass storage via recovery beforehand when i had the bootloop. And the strange thing now is, that odin didn't formatted my sd card (i still got my music and stuff)

Odin doesn't format your sd card anymore.
I'm not so sure about the bug you're having. Feels like your internal might be dead but that would mean no recovery too. Do you have a external sd in?

I find it weird that you get the same issue on KK4. Have you tried it on a different pc?

Yes, i tried different battery charger, but it keeps on rebooting. :/ Coming from KK4 do i have to root the phone again or can i go ahead and flash a rom? (rom manager telling me it couldn't find superuser/device not rooted ) Maybe a new rom will help?

I doubt it will make a difference but you'll have to flash corn kernel using Odin. From there, follow the full rom instructions. there's also a flashing guide in the stickies.

Flashing corn kernel 7.05 made me stuck at the corn logo screen, couldn't even get into cwm. Now i got back to kk4 with odin. Should i give it another shot or should i try superoneclick?

You don't have to use superoneclick.
I'd suggest you try speedmod kernel then and boot directly in recovery.

I was able to get into recovery with speedmod kernel, but a normal boot wasn't possible, just stucked at the galaxy s screen. After root and a full wipe, i couldn't flash a rom (cm11) due getting status 0 error.
Ok i flashed cm9 and this one is completely fine. No more usb issues also. I flashed cm11 and it seems fine. I hope it will stay that way. Thank you very much for caring.
I have one more question. One thing that is very frustrating is to lose all your customized data and settings with flashing. Since messing around with titanium lead me to this problem i want to know what's your favorite backup tool? Will a normal backup via recovery save ur apps and settings?

You can restore your apps data with titanium, just don't restore system apps.
