Ive got a stock 2.2? froyo captivate and did the new [Guide] How To flash Captivate ROMs from Stock by TRusselo and when i go into recovery i cant access external sd. I put the latest nightly and gapps on the root of sd card and for some reason I cant see it? I did a clean wipe and everything. Is there something wrong that I'm doing. I've mounted everything and still nothing.
Read the instructions again INTERNAL SD not EXTERNAL and you can access it, browse sdcard to /external_sd folder, it takes you to your external sd.
you mounted what? why? dont.
BUT YOU CANT FLASH FROM EXTERNAL SD!!!!
thats why the instructions say INTERAL SD
So instead of downloading through the browser.....I'd like to move the new nightly and gapps on internal memory with a pc transfer....where would i put it in? so that CWM can see it? Thxs man. I appreciate it. noober here. htc aria was a breeze to root and flash custom roms, I'm not use to this puppy.
ANYWHERE internal sd in the root, or any folder (except external_sd)
what browser are you using? the stock brower downloads to sdcard/downloads not sdcard/external_sd/*whatever*
if you downloaded with stock browser it should be there... not in root. unless you moved it after.
Thanks so much..... I found the files I needed but when I try to flash nightly it gives me this craziness....what's going on! Thxs for the help though.
edit: Did a factory one click by odin.
seems like an error with the zip file. try a nightly from a day or two before.
The build prop doesn't match the built asserts in the Zip, they have to match for it to flash... what ROM are you currently on?

that would make scene by the error. hmm he said he went to stock odin one click...
which odin one click?
Maybe he just did that...

So I did the one click to revert back to stock. Then I did a one click root and now have SU. 10 hours later and a freakin home made jig that I've made i'm still on 2.1 with root. Please for the love of God I'd like to install current nightly of cm7 and CWM. There are soooooo many ways I've read to install. Now from you pro's can you hook me up with some links or direction to get this going. I've literally killed my Saturday reading my a$$ off. Thanks guys for replying to my lame noobness.

Just clear ROM managers data and then flash the original Captivate CWM not MTD and the reboot into recovery... reinstall packages 2 times, and flash in CWM
Sent from my I897 using xda premium
Thanks for the fast reply. I bought ROM manager premium and will try it out. Install twice I guess to be on the safe side right? Thanks again. My wife hates my life right now being i've spent all day doing this. So i'm down to try anything on her cappy at this point.
Not "to be on the safe side"...the first time you choose reinstall packages in stock recovery it'll boot back into stock recovery, then reinstall packages again and it'll boot into cwm.
yeah thats a must do.
So i've cleared cache and selecting captivate recovery galaxy s 2.5.1.x booted into recovery ROM manger and did reinstall twice and got this.......I don't understand why i'm getting this.
Edit: I got it to work! I kept trying to go through the recovery from ROM manager after installing and it hung up a couple times. Then when selecting install packages with which I did it twice...it was in cwm 2.5.1.7. Installed nightly after full wipe a couple times and it boot looped. Then if I remember correctly I pulled battery booting into recovery, the 3 button way. it booted into Cwm 5.x.x.x. What the heck!!! That was a fun ride, why did it do this? Anyways, glad to join your guys community. you guys are awesome. Thanks buttons hit. changing first post and thread to.....solved.
When you flashed the nightly it contained a kernel with cwm 5 baked into it.
from what i have heard sometimes the cm install needs to be done twice.. too. i dunno dont mess with cm7
Sorry

Go in the Dev section (stickies) and get Odin KK4 without bootloaders. Flash it in download mode.
From there, Get Corn kernel, which you'll flash with Odin 1.85 and finally, you can get back to your ROM.

Once Again thankyou for your kind Reply!
.. 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 everyone,
I downloaded CM10 alpha 5 from ivendor and put it on my internal sd card.
In the post it said flash the update.zip and gapps.zip files, but I only had the whole cm10 zip file.
I installed that but it didn't work and now I'm stuck in the clockworkmod.
I think I didn't read well enough, so can you tell me what I did wrong?
I guess I should try another ROM, but is it even possible to put one on your sd card when the phone doesn't start?
Thanks alot,
Bob
You made a backup before you flashed it?
If you did, restore it and reboot your phone, i think you did something wrong, if you downloaded the good file you just flash update it and it will reboot normally, be sure its a .Zip file
Sent From My Rooted Samsung Galaxy S2 JB 4.1.2 (GT-I9100)
So for some reason, some phones naturally bootloop in recovery when trying to install CM10.
Did it say installing, then stop, reboot and bootloop in recovery?
If it did, DO NOT PANIC. Everything is fine. Sometimes the phone needs to do that to install an updated recovery. If that did happen, just take out the battery and reinsert it, reboot into recovery. Flash the same CM10 again, then Gapps.
But just as a failsafe, if you want to flash back to 2.3.6 (I'm sorry, I don't know what it is for the I9001) through odin with dbsdata.rfs (due to data partition differences between stock and CM10). Just in case you want to start completely over.

hi it say to flash the "update.zip", do u think u should of flashed the cm10 file u downloaded instead?
i am only new to experimenting with my phone myself and nearly made that mistake. have u got any further with this problem anyway?
you Just have to do a wipe factory / flash upgrade.zip / flash gapps / reboot
if you do a wipe factory, you will lose your data. but this is a safe method to move from a old rom to a new one

HI, so recently i brought a galaxy s gt i9000. I wanted to flash a custom rom so I install cwm and now have root access. problem is whenever i try to install a custom rom it shows the bar for installation in CWM and then goes to the custom rom logo. It does nothing else whatsoever after that. I need to take out my battery and restore my backup in order to get my phone working again from a bootloop. i tried putting the rom in both my external sd card and the phone itself. Also before installing i wiped the dalvik cache etc. Can someone please help, i've tried multiple roms so its obviously my phone. thanks

i9000 stucks in logo because your phone is not acessing internel memory...i have also got this problem..i dont have any solution..one thing u can do is that take your phone in download mode for 2 to 3 minutes approximately and then again on your phone ...this will work...But this problem comes again when u shutdown your mobile..another method is to take your i9000 in download mode and connect to computer and then download dbdata.rfs file put in odin in pda and apply ...these two processess will definately work fine to acess your internal memory

Just a few questions regarding how you installed the rom.
1.) What rom, first of all?
2.) After rooting 2.3.6 and trying to flash through recovery, did the phone skip to the kernel screen before continuously bootlooping?
3.) Did you try pulling your battery, then putting it back in, entering recovery and flashing the same rom again?
