Database Develop

Another "bricked" Nook thread [SOLVED]

I messed my Nook up pretty good this time guys. I mess my Androids up regularly it seems, but up to this point I've been able to surf xda and stuff for the solutions. I am completely out of ideas now any help is appreciated greatly.
The big problem seems to be that I cannot boot CWM from my SD card anymore. I've been on Phiremod CM7.1 stable for months now, but I wanted to try out the TeamWinRecoveryProject over on the first page of the development forum first page. Following their instructions, I saved copies the originals of uRecImg and uRecRam to my pc and replaced the ones on my nook's /boot directory with their files. That is all I did.
I now get stuck at the CM splash screen that says "Loading..." indefinitely. I also figured out I can reach the u-boot menu by holding the n button on boot. This gives me options to but from different files and either emmc or sd card. Choosing any option just locks the Nook up like I get at the loading screen in a normal boot.
Please please please xda bestow your amazing gift of knowledge upon me to get my nook back to good old CM7.1 and CWM pictures included.

What's currently on your eMMC? Stock still?
Remove the uSD, can it still be booted?

My emmc was Phiremod CM7.1. With or without the SD card, all I can boot to are the two screens in the pictures.
Edit: The boot menu is supposed to allow me to boot normally, to recovery, or an alternative boot on either my emmc or my sd, but I've tried all six options and nothing happens.
I have tried multiple CWM images for my SD card and multiple SD cards that function on other devices just fine.

You didn't accidentally replace your normal kernel with the twrp kernel did you? The twrp kernel wouldn't even let me boot into recovery. I used the cm7 kernel for the recovery kernel and it worked for me.

You're probably not bricked. The same thing happened to me (several times ). I think the uRecImg from twrp's 2.0 nook color page is bad. Make a new TWRP 2.0 bootable SD card from here and burn it to a SD card.
Then download the 1.01 Restore from here. Copy that to the bootable sd card and put it in your nook.
Power up and you should be in TWRP 2.0 (touchscreen). Wipe system and do a factory reset. After that, flash the nook-complete-restore-1.0.1.zip and reboot to system (after removing sd card).
That'll get you to stock. Then you just flash the CM7.x to emmc using the twrp 2.0 bootable sd, download rom manger, and install CWM. If you want to use TWRP 2.0 from emmc, just replace uRecRam only.
All of these steps may not be necessary, but they at least got me booting again (and finally a working emmc install of twrp 2.0).

Are either uRecImg or uRecRam in the /boot directory kernel files? Replacing those two files is all I remember doing.
edit: just saw your post Mwalt. Looking into that now

Hey agemyth, I'm jumping over here to avoid cluttering the TWRP2 thread.
Try mwalt2's suggestion (it was in fact a TWRP2 card I used to fix my kernel), and if that doesn't work:
I don't see why you would fail to boot from a card no matter what's wrong with /boot, unless there is physical damage to the card slot or your bootable images aren't writing properly.
If you did just write the card(s) using a card reader you haven't used to write bootable images before, the reader and the images it's producing may be the problem, not the NC. Try burning the images with an alternate reader (sometimes even a phone, camera or other device over USB will work). If you've burned bootable cards with this reader before, then I'm out of ideas.

I find that flashing to stock (1.41 now) remedies most weird situations. It seems that it restores the device to a known (and sane) state. idk how you'd do that without CWR, though.

Unless there's a hardware problem with your nook (seems unlikely), it should boot from the sd card no matter what is on the emmc. How exactly are you burning the image and have you tried a different card/reader?
edit - When you are in the alt boot menu, is your nook recognized by ADB? If so, you could try to push the uRecImg and uRecRam that you backed up to your computer back to /boot. The commands would probably be
Code:
adb shell mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /boot
adb push uRecImg /boot
adb push uRecRam /boot

I've tried both win32diskimager and WinImage either running as administrator or normal on Windows 7. I've always used my own EVO 4G to burn images for my Nook. I also used another EVO I had in the house and had the same problem. I do not have any dedicated microSD card readers/writers.
I never quite understood how to get ADB set up I have a basic understanding of Linux and stuff, but ADB has always been over my head. If you could point me in the direction of a "ADB for dummies" with specific Nook instructions or something I would gladly give that a shot.

Thanks to thecubed, there's an easy guide to get adb working here. Once you have that installed, I think it puts the folder with adb.exe in it under c:/. Open a command prompt and change to that directory. Then type 'adb devices' and if the drivers are installed right, it should list some numbers that is your nook. If it can't be detected from the altboot mode, it will just be blank.

By "altboot mode" are you just referring to the u-Boot mode with all the blue text in my second picture on the first post? I got ADB running, but am not finding any devices.

The easy way to do this in Vista or 7 is hit the Windows/Start key, type "cmd," and hit Enter when cmd.exe comes up. Then in the console, type "cd C:\android-sdk\platform-tools" (that's what it is on mine--thecubed's files might name the folders differently, like "C:\adb" or something. Just pay attention while it's installing and/or take a look with Explorer before you open the console). Once you're in the right directory, any command prefaced with adb will start adb and run through it.
I just learned this stuff myself last week, rooting a Nook First Edition e-ink reader.

Thanks for your patience with me lol. I may have not stated it correctly in my last post, but I have ADB working through the command prompt, but it is not detecting my Nook when it is sitting in the uboot menu. I installed my evo's drivers and it picks that phone up just fine.
Man, if ADB can't fix this I don't know what can @[email protected]

Did you boot to the sd through the boot menu or just try inserting the sd and booting. I forget the actually terminology but you can setup the boot loader to ignore the sd by default. Maybe that happened to you.

I tried telling the bootloader to boot from SD and emmc to no avail. I guess the big problem here is that I can't find any way to change any of the boot settings or anything at all.
All the options from the bootloader result in a message like "Booting. One moment please..." or something like that. It just freezes indefinitely.

[Help] Phone Completely Dead

Hello, I own a Samsung Captivate.
I had my phone plugged into USB and was transferring files. I tripped over and had it disconnect by force without safely disconnecting first.
Ever since them, phone had "unsuccessful enscripted error" or something. I did factory reset / wipe data (I dont mind doing hard reset/losing files). Still didnt work. It still kept saying Unsccessful Enscripted Error etc. So I lent it to my friend and he went on formatting all the folder in download mode, now I cant even boot to anything.
Currently, if I turn it on, it gets stuck at AT&T screen. If I plug usb onto phone, it has the little loading icon, but its frozen, its not circling around. I cant boot to download mode, I cant get Odin to detect.
Please help, I dont mind going through factory mode or w/e.
Thanks in advance!
Dan.

Download one click stock restore package(search for it on the forum). Put your phone in the download mode(there are many threads in this forum that describe how to try and force the download mode if it doesn't happen normally). Then run that one click restore package and it should work.

I found this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1266172
And downloaded the rooted .jar file.
It gave my bluescreen multiple times. Anyways, when I placed my phone into download mode and had the software running (bluescreen occurs), my phone went into this screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Note that I cannot go to recovery mode

K, long story short, that method didnt work.
Apparently, that screen is still in Download Mode, so I just went to Odin and resetted. Worked.
I tried installing gingerbread or something on it, good news is, I can now go into recovery mode. Bad news is, it still doesnt work and when I factory reset, it gives me error while formatting \data\ folder and something \android.secure.
Still proceeding to do more things on it..
**Edit**
K so, basically I used KI2 Kernel and installed on my phone from that screwd up download mode screen. This got me to Recovery Mode.
When I try to start my phone, it just loops on the introduction animation. Battery icons are now showing and moving.
Again, Im thinking its because my friend formatted the /system /dbdata /cache /data /sdcard /sd-ext. Is there way to get those back now that my recovery mode is working? I think my phone is completely missing its OS or something.
When I do factory reset from recovery mode, it says
Formatting /data...
Error mounting /data!
Skipping format...
Formatting /cache...
Formatting /dbdata...
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!
Skipping format...
Data wipe complete.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
I think it might have something to do with partition format. Try flashing the UCKK4 with the bootloader version from the thread linked above. That way you'll have gingerbread bootloader if not loaded already. It'll repartition too. Once that is done, you'll have to flash corn kernel with cwm recovery. After that you'll be able to flash rom's of your choice. In future you need not flash gb bootloders.
The mode in the above pic is another form of download mode. I also had that a few times and I could use odin to flash away. I have observed that if the usb cable is already connected with the phone and if you try to put the phone into the download mode, you see this screen as opposed to normal download screen. If you disconnect the usb cable from the phone, you would see normal download mode screen.
If you still get errors pertaining to sdcard it might have become corrupt or gone bad. You could try to manually mount it via the recovery mode and format it.
Good luck!

I went on and downloaded this from the link you gave me:
"Odin One Clicks
I897UCKK4 Odin One Click - Stock, CONTAINS Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe"
Had it install successfully and got these:
Installation was done, phone rebooting and had this msg at first:
This is the screen message.
-- Copying media files...
E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount /sdcard

Media files copy failed.

And then on its own, it went to this screen and basically froze there:
When I turned it off and restarted, after wiping cache and whatnot, it went back to boot screen and started looping again.
I had my SD card inserted onto phone when I did this, donno why its saying its missing or not prepared..
---Edit---
I tried installing other things:

And got this:
Whatever I install, its always the sdcard error..

Because there isn't a fix for it; only workarounds. It involves something physically going wrong with the storage on the phone. /data and /sdcard are long gone. It can only be fixed by random luck. Your only usable option would be to use CM9 on the external sd card (see dev section).

I tried installing Cyanogen Mod. My phone will not be recognized for me to access the driver (I can connect and it'll recognize in Odin, just I cant see the driver to access in My Computer). When they do show up, they show up as "hidden" and I cannot access em.
I tried using micro SD card, still no luck.
Im gonna try to see if I could install using Odin One click... I'll let you guys know, thanks for all the support for now.
--Edit--
Hmm, I just did quick search on Captivate's Dev section for cyanogen, couldnt find any post that's not relevant to installing by using the sd card (since I cant even place my cyanogen rar file into the card for it to be booted on phone).
am I missing something here? A thread that I missed?

A few things you could try:
1. To install cwm recovery, flash corn kernel using odin. Then try and manually mount sdcard and format it via recovery menu. If you can get into cwm recovery this way, you might be able to flash a rom from your external sd card.
2. One of the rom's (Slim Bean, Lanight or CM9...I don't remember which one for sure) mounts external sd card as /sdcard and internal as /emmc. That rom might work with your external sd card. It might be worth a try. Based on the above post, it sounds like it's CM9. If they fixed that thing, you may have to try and find a script that would map your external sd card as /sdcard.
3. I'm not sure if this is the case with i897 or not but you might want to find out if the internal sd card is removable or not. If it is, you might be able to use another one in its place. You might be able to find out that info online somewhere if you're lucky. Otherwise you would have to disassemble your phone.

@1. I went to CWM recovery and tried to manually mount the sdcard, it said error. (E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)
Again, when I tried to format it, it gave me same thing, failed to mount therefore failed to format properly.
@2. I would love to have CM9 installed on my phone right now, Ive been trying everything, use my other phones to somehow get the sd card to read. I tried looking for Odin way to install CM9 or something like so, where it doesnt require me to use sd card to put the zip file into it and have it install from phone. So Im stuck there..

I'm a little confused. Is your internal sd card that is fried or your external sd card or both? If it's only the internal sd card, I'm guessing you should be able to install zip from your external sd card. If it's your external sd card that's not working then you can try using a different sd card or you could use adb to transfer the CM9 zip file to internal sd card. If both are bad then you have to try using a new external sd card. You already may be aware but I'm stating the obvious...there is an option to install a zip from either internal or external sd card via cwm recovery. Or may be that this phone requires internal sd card to be functional in order to work. I guess in that case you will have to somehow map your external sd card as /sdcard. You'll have to ask the experts here if that's feasible or not. It might have already been answered. You may want to try searching for it.

Im sorry, Im not being lazy here, I am rather quite confused and will need detail info, I practically dont know much about the forum nor the terms etc. I do know basic somewhat, but its very limited.
The only way I know how to install CM9 or any CMs are through external or internal sd. Internal being usb connected and place the CM zip file onto it. External, same method. However, I am in a place where I cant access Internal sd cuz my computer wont let me access the phone driver (although I could connect to Odin). External as well, is not being recognized. As you see from previous pictures, everytime I format or do w/e, it keeps saying sd card errors.
I did read a person saying this: "Assuming it doesn't, I'm going to do a Heimdall or Odin flash to CM7 or stock and go from there."
But, I also tried looking on forum for that, where I could install CM through Heimdall or Odin.. couldnt find any.
As for "uhm"'s post, my cards arent fried (I highly doubt it), and I cant do those things because I cannot access all of my cards (internal / external), I MIGHT be doing it wrong, but I mean... it should at least even show up... I tried putting the CM zip file and gapp onto external sd, couldnt boot it. I cant access phone at all so I cant download any apps to assist me either...
Ive been stuck with this for 6 days googling all over the place, so far, even finding myself to download mode and recovery mode was through XDA community's help, and that alone is greatly appreciated. Which is why I guess I am relying on this community to somehow assist me in getting my phone to work

So, as much as I want to install CM on my phone, I cant seem to figure out a way other than using sd (which is not working).

I am trying but its quite difficult for someone who practically doesnt know anything about these things XP

Flash corn kernel usig odin... it has a built-in cwm recovery and that should let you get into the recovery mode and flash from your external sd card. The pics above show that you have stock recovery and not cwm. Therefore you can't see those zip files to flash rom's. After you flash kernel don't try normal boot. Press the required keys to get into the recovery mode. Search this forum to download corn kernel for uckk4 rom.
P.S.:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1294477 Download it from this thread and select that file for PDA section in odin and flash it.

I guess Im missing some picture, I do have the exact thing you are talking about and I do have CWM recovery (4.0.1.5).
When I try to install the CM9 zip from sd card using recovery mode, it says "E:Can't mount /sdcard" "Error mounting /sdcard"
And when I do apply sd card update, it also says
-- Installing: /sdcard/update.zip
Finding update package...

You should have cwm version 5.x.x.x if you flashed the correct kernel if I'm not mistaken. Also you shouldn't be applying update.zip. You should be navigating to CM9 zip and then selecting it to flash it. There are two places to select zip from...internel and external sd card. Based on the error message, it seems like you're trying to go after internal sd card. I think in the recovery menu, install from sdcard option takes you to internal sd card. try the other option..I think it is labelled as install from internal sd card..I know it's misleading. Basically navigate to the right place and try again. Otherwise I suppose without a working built-in sd card, it would be very difficult to flash another rom. If that happens try looking into swapping the mapping of your external and internal sd cards. I think there are some scripts somewhere in this forum. Don't know if that will help you for sure or not as I never had to look into it so far.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711150 is what I'm talking about. It says you need internal sd but I'm fairly certain you can get around it.

[Q] How to fix internal SD-card after new BL install?

Hello.
I was today gonna install tonyp paranoidandroid 14 beta, but I am having problems going to new bootloader. I got it flashed through nvflash and all-in-one tool, but when I come to if I wanna fix my internal sd card, I of course say yes, but it doesnt work. It says it is waiting for the device to enter recovery.

I tried this twice. First I flashed it normally, then plugged the cable out, went to recovery and pressed to continue in the toolkit, without noticing I should plug the cable back in when at recovery. I rebooted to recovery with cable still in, and went in usb storage. Nothing changed in toolkit. Now I didnt know what to do, so I closed the program and did the whole process again, this time making sure to keep the cable connected when I went to fix internal sd card. Still nothing happens. Now I dont know what to do. Can I fix this internal SD card by some other method? Why isnt it working? I really need my phone back working before dinner today, and really dont want to go back to my backup.
Thank you for all of your answers. I really appreciate it.

my friend,
if you read the OP in the AIOT, spyrosk has clearly stated this in option 4:
"Safety keys: If any of the “SD-Card fix” or “Enable Dual-Boot” step fails go to ToolkitFiles\tools folder and run the IntSD-MountFix.cmd or DualBoot-Enable.cmd accordingly. Attention: Both scripts are designed to run as standalone scripts also. The IntSD-MountFix.cmd is harmless "
Check this....if you are using the TWRP or CWM, flash a ROM using internal SD card, then you will know if it works.

I try to run this script. No difference. It says "waiting for the device to enter recovery.. " still. I got CWM v5.0.2.8e installed and got APX drivers. I have no idea how to fix the internal sd card without this script, cause it clearly isnt working for me... I need this to work :|

Have you checked after you entered the recovery the first time(when the intSD Card fix in AIOT was with waiting for the device to enter recovery)...if you can flash a ROM from the internal SD and use it once boot is complete?

Not sure if I do this correctly but I try this now:
Quick format the disk that needs to be formatted according to my Windows 7, disk space of 4,6 GB i format in fat32 quick format, 4096 byte. Transfer tonyp paranoidandroid beta, as well as gapps and camera app to this disk. Unmount, flash paranoidandroid, then gapps, then launch and flash camera fix later from internal SD.
^ I tried the above and it failed when I start install paranoidandroid. It says:
Installing: /emmc/pa_p990-2.6-14-newbl-tonyp.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...

Hope that can help you pros find the fault?? I have no clue what to do when things aint working. I try to google but find different phones and different problems...
EDIT: I flashed again and changed to cwm v6.0.2.5. I try to install from sdcard, and it says E: Can't mount /sdcard/. I suppose that has to do with the internal fix not working. I can install my rom from external SD, and did so earlier before I formatted again hoping to get internal sd fix working. When I was running the ROM, it said my sd card needed to be formatted (which I presume was the external sd for some reason? I wont format that, too many files and too slow a card). Going to about phone in settings didnt work, then settings would crash, but the rest of settings appeared to work. Camera did not work as I did not have external storage it said. Dont think there is anything else I noted. I dont even know if this is relevant... But is there no other way to fix internal sd card? I tried restart PC and install apx drivers again, but the install is instantaneous as it is already on my PC.

I have done this 5 times after you reported this issue...each time it worked perfectly.
after you got this message 'waiting for the device to enter recovery', have you clicked on any key inserting the USB cable to the device? and then after inserting click on any key in PC.....thats it.
There is no issue with the AIOT as I have performed 5 times....absolutely perfect flashing without any issues....
Can you describe what you did one by one....maybe we can find the error.

There is another method you can use to fix your internal SD. Dont know if it works on the latest versions of toolkit, but expected to.
See the "IntSD-MountFix.zip" attached to the first post of the AIO toolkit thread.
Flash it after partitioning, when your phone boots into recovery for the first time. Then reboot recovery and wipe and flash the ROM. Thats it.
The need to flash this zip was eliminated by spyrosk in later versions of the toolkit, by including a script in the toolkit itself. But since that isnt working for you, use the zip.
If you are thinking of how to put the zip inside the SD card to flash it, there are various ways, such as mounting external SD in recovery(mount USB storage), putting in external SD through some card reader and then putting the external SD inside the phone, or using adb sideload to flash it.

Alright, thanks both of you. I didnt use that .zip file yet for fixing internal memory. As far as I can understand, the fix is for making internal sd card mountable on PCs and the like? I have my phone connected now, and can see both internal sd card and external sd card on my phone. Do I even need the fix then? If I now install it, will I have to set up everything on my phone again? I spent all last night customizing everything and getting it how I want it to be... dont wanna do that again..

what do you mean with setting up everything again do you mean with the system or the sdcard? if you mean sdcard then the sdcard fix wil reformat the internal sd.
By the aio toolkit the auto internal sdcard fix worked for me by the TWRP from tonyp 2.5 and 2.6

Ok, I wiped everything again and ran the zip. It said internal sd was fine -__- all this trouble lol. Now I have new questions that are unrelated to original question but still need answering.
1. I did the factory reset wipe, cache wipe and dalvik cache wipe, yet my phone still remembers WiFi password when I install tonyp paranoidandroid 14 and gapps. It connected straight to my wifi. How can that be? What did I forget to wipe? should I wipe that thing I forgot?
2. My phone is automatically downloading all the apps I installed yesterday. This is the first time it has happened in my 10 custom roms on my 2 phones. Why is it happening? I love it!!
3. How do I replace the settings.apk I have with a new one? Check paranoidandroid thread on o2x development to see what i mean. I tried to just install, but it has failed me. After failed install I couldnt open settings at all. I read somewhere that I should copy the new settings.apk to system/apps and replace the settings.apk that is already there. That failed though, when I tried to move it in file manager in root mode. What do I do? I wish I could just flash it in, but it is apk file and not zip sooo I probably cant...
4. What is the best camera app I can flash? I pretty much only use camera for Snapchat and the occasional pictures when climbing mountains and no other camera is available... Suggestions?

The internal SD fix was for fixing SD mount in ROMs, not on PC. And it says mounted correctly, after fixing the mount, so it has done its job.
Now for your new questions:
1.google account backs up and restores wifi password
2. Similar to 1. You checked the option "restore apps from my Google account" at the setup screen, so it installs your apps
3.use a root file manager to push it to system/app and set permission to rw-r--r--
4. Camera mods have been made by Jishnu Sur, feav and defcomg. You can find them and try them, then pick one which you like, it's a personal choice.

Rooted but need help with ROM

I rooted with TWRP on my virgin mobile phone. I wanted to get rid of the internal storage crap. I have 4 Gig internal storage it shows 2.8 of that being used in "other" storage. I really want to remove it to free up phone space.
I downloaded titanium backup but after uninstalling apps it reboots and eventually everything pops back in. I've also tried link 2 sd with slightly more success.
I thought if I could just make all new apps download to the sd that should help, but even though the terminal emulator says the sd is the primary storage it's still loading to the phone first.
If I install a new ROM will that get rid of all the other stuff and let me download to the SD?
Also, I haven't been able to get S-off to work yet, will I still be able to put a new ROM in?
I only somewhat know what I'm doing, I could use a lot of direction. Thanks
Oh also, I can't backup in recovery because it says I don't have enough storage space :/

You unfortunately cant get the rest of the 4GB space back. The only amount of space you'll ever be able to get is a little over 1GB which goes down after a rom install... The reason for that is because HTC was stupid and on all the other partitions there's a bunch of unused space... There's about 10 partitions with at least 175MB FREE on all of them. Why HTC did that is beyond me and most other devs.. Now about getting rid of the bloatware crap, if you don't first install another kernel with write protection removed like this one Kernel write protection removed click here then every time you reboot it's all just going to reinstall itself. So in order to stop that you must flash the kernel in TWRP and then go back and remove everything you want to. Just be careful which stuff you remove but if I was you and you really should do this before doing anything, go back into TWRP and create a backup of your current system so if anything ever goes wrong you can simply restore it and be ok...
Edit.. The reason you can't make the backup in TWRP is because it's set to internal space... At the top after you tap INSTALL change it from internal to SD and then tap home and make your backup.

Oh I see. Thanks for the info. I did set to the sd card but still got an error. I'm trying to format my card now to see if that helps. Do I partition it before backing up?
Also do I run the kernel before installing a new ROM? Or if I run the kernel do you think I'm fine to just keep the HTC one I have and be no worse off?
Eventually I'd like to be able to tether my phone but can't think of any other super special features I'd use

Well if you've never used the SD card with the phone and you don't have nothing important on it then yes I'd recommend you format it and TWRP can help with that in the WIPE section.. You can just flash the kernel now and you'll be fine but you'll need the kernel on your SD card so you can select it in TWRP... So first take care of your SD card so it works with the phone before flashing a kernel.. You'd be fine keeping the rom you have..
Edit: You are from the USA correct? Just making sure so I know if your phone is 32 bit and not 64 bit... I'm pretty sure you're 32 bit though since you have TWRP installed.

It was not enough memory error but I got it fixed.
YeYes US.
I got the backup done and have the kernel installed on my sd card. so close! Is it possible to flash without connecting to the pc?
Are there instructions to do it through the emulator maybe?

Yes you don't need a PC to flash a kernel... What version of TWRP did you install? Because if you use the 2.8.7.0 version of TWRP and up, you can flash from right inside of TWRP all you'd have to do is select install and navigate to where the kernel is on the SD but there's a toggle button on the lower right after you tap install to change it from a zip file to an image file and you MUST fist change it to the image setting otherwise it will not "see" the kernel.img that's on the SD... If you don't have this version then open the play store and download Flashify and flash the kernel while the phone is on and then just reboot after flashing it but be warned Flashify only lets you flash 3 times a day unless you buy the pro version but since you only need to flash one thing "kernel", you'll be ok to use it if you need to and you also have to give it root permission before you can flash.

Yea turns out my twrp version didn't have the option. Well I think I got it done with falshify, the kernel version matches although the baseband version numbers differ
Hopefully I'm all set now!

The Baseband numbers are fine, they're not supposed to match.. As long as you can see that the kernel was flashed by going into settings and about phone there's info in there that will show you if the kernel was installed and another way to test to see if it worked is to uninstall or delete a few apps that are bloatware and then reboot the phone and if they don't reinstall themselves then yep you're good to go! I'm rather surprised that a woman is doing what you are because most guys are freaking clueless and want someone to hold their hand through every single step haha..

Lol well my husband tried to root it and couldn't figure it out so I had to do it
I screwed something up just now though. The apps like Facebook and chrome still won't move completely to the SD card. The partition looks good but they're still locked to internal memory even with the kernel.
I'm also running busy box so I'm not sure what's wrong.
And now I keep getting a pop-up that android.process.media isn't working :/ I'm about ready to give up I was able to download a few more apps but then something went wrong and now the play store gives a error message about usb storage... I'll probably have to run my recovery. No idea what I did wrong.

Just go into TWRP and tap wipe and then wipe just the Cache and Dalvic cache... Some apps you cannot move because they really need to be on the internal storage to gain access to certain files. Go into settings and tap storage then scroll all the way down in there should be an option to install to the SD card make sure all the boxes are ticked. If the WIPE doesn't stop your problem then you'll need to restore but be a little more careful next time.. Try moving a few things at a time and reboot then wait a few minutes to make sure it doesn't throw any errors like that and if it does, at least you'll only have a small amount of apps to move back and go through to find out which one did it lol..

Yeah, I don't know what happened. I had link2sd and apps2sd and changed some settings. Next thing I know, bam, not working.
But I wiped and it is good so long as the SD card is not mounted. If I mount the SD card it throws the android error again. SO I am formatting the card AGAIN. Yaaaaayyyy. I think partitioning it on my phone wasn't the best idea. So I;m connected to a computer now, and figure while I'm here I will update the TWRP version and maybe install a new ROM for the hell of it.

The SD card has to be partitioned a certain way.. To use Link2SD you have to have 2 partitions one MUST be ext4 because that's what your phone uses as a format type.. The other has to be fat32 or similar... They both must also be set as primary.. I used Mini Tool Partition on the PC to format my SD card but you can find another one... If you don't format it correctly it isn't going to work. Also, a new rom is not going to help anything and unfortunately the stock rom is the best one to use for now because the others have problems.

ext4? I was using this tutorial http://www.techinbuzz.com/how-to-partition-sd-card-for-link2sd-using-minitool/ it says for stock ROM to use ext2? That's what I did the first time. But maybe I will try 4 because I have yet to have it work without a hitch.

Use ext4 for the HTC Desire 510... Most people on here trust me. When you tapped wipe in TWRP didn't you see it say formatting with ext4?

Don't worry oyu have my trust I really appreciate all your help today.
I don't remember seeing it but it's possible. I've got it partitioned again with the ext4 this time. I did get 1GB of memory freed up on my phone so that's definitely a plus. If I can move all the apps I download from here on out to the SD card I think I will be able to use my phone quite happily now! :good:
Or I'll be back tomorrow with more problems hahaha either is possible

Lmfao... You should be OK now as long as you've set everything up the right way.. And you're welcome.
You should learn about Xposed and Xposed Modules because it will make things a lot easier and you can theme your phone to look just about any way possible. There's even a module for Xposed called Downloads2SD and works awesome!!
Edit... By the way, you can also use flashify to flash an updated version of TWRP if you want or you can just flash it via the PC like you did already... The updated ones make flashing much easier! Anyways have a great night.

Ugh still problems. Unfortunately android.process.media is the error I keep getting. It is only when I have the SD card mounted. Even after formatting and setting a new partition. It was fine, then once I installed Link2SD and mounted the script the error started again.
I checked in the folders under "Android" "data" there are the .com.etc... files and then one that says nomedia. I wonder if that's what is causing the problem. Not sure if those type of files are available somewhere that I can reload.

I've formatted the card again and put it in fresh but once I try to download an app to it (straight from playstore, not using link2sd) the error came back. So I definitely broke something. Not sure what. I may try with a brand new SD card tomorrow and see if it will fix it but at this point I'm not optimistic since a complete format of the card from my computer didn't fix the problem. :[

Try to have the Xposed and Xposed Modules... First you need to install the wanam Xposed framework and then reboot and start using modules and there's tons of them... Go read how to install Wanam Xposed after you get that installed you tap download inside of the Xposed app and type downdloads2sd because this is much better than anything else because you don't have to format the SD card all you need to do is set where you want your downloads to go and reboot after setting it all up and then you're all done!!

Except now my SD card isn't working regardless so it won't help until I figure that out

Just reformat the entire SD card but first delete the partitions you made and just make the whole card fat32 and try using the Xposed Module to download to the SD card.

thank you and for the sd card, we must format to fat32, to be able to get it detected?
do you want logs as well? I am just about to flash it on my p5100.

is it supposed to look like this?

it changes its position while flipping from vertical to horizontal. sometime it's at the centre where it should be, but then, it goes back a little left, then again to the far left.
The rom is pretty smooth, faced glitches while trying to swipe languages at the welcome cynogenmod screen, a soft reboot too, while on particular language(was just rolling over). (clean flash on the latest twrp recovery, with opengapps and keyboard fix) after went over the process, tried taking screenshot, but got error "Couldn't capture screenshot(Can't take screenshot due to limited storage space or it isn't allowed by the app or your organization"(wth?) soon enough everything started crashing and wouldn't stop, I reboot to recovery again, clear cache then back again. voila, no crashing and I took screenshot. no keyboard problem.
wifi connects, camera and camcorder works. file manager shows sd card data but pc won't mount sd card(if it's not fat32 format), ram usage was at 63 percent(with gapps after reboot) and 60 percent(without gapps)
clean flashed again. without gapps, just rom and keyboard fix.
no fc or crashes at all.

keyboard lock AOSP.
An alternative keyboard please?
Thanks for the great work, great!

Booted up without issues as long as you use the 'Deltadroid' keyboard gapps fix.
After a complete wipe/format/reboot recovery, I flashed the following files in the order listed:

As always, thank you 'Android-Andi' for getting our Tab2 devices into MARSHMALLOW territory!

The last 2 links you list say "Tab 2 7.0." Do you know if these files also work for the P5113? (I'm assuming yes, since you have a thumbs up next to P5113).
Also, is it ok if I use Open GApps 6.0 nano instead of your 2nd link?
Or would this conflict with the GApps keyboard listed in your 3rd link?

One last question: I see you stated earlier the "file manager shows sd card data but pc won't mount sd card(if it's not fat32 format)."
This is probably a n00b question, but can you explain what "won't mount SD card" mean?
I did some quick Googling, and it looks like it means the card isn't recognized. Does this mean that I can't access backed-up data from Titanium Backup? I know it's not recommended, but I usually like to back-up and restore save data for games and applications (only user apps, never system apps!) after each Rom change. Does this mean that my backup will be lost / inaccessible?
Or does this mean I won't be able to transfer newer builds from my pc to the tablet using the USB cord?

Looks like a CM bug
.(clean flash on the latest twrp recovery, with opengapps and keyboard fix) after went over the process, tried taking screenshot, but got error "Couldn't capture screenshot(Can't take screenshot due to limited storage space or it isn't allowed by the app or your organization"(wth?)

Know bug if you switch roms and don't format data in twrp (confirm by typing "yes" - instead Advance wipe data/internal storage).

it won't show your sd card when you connect through the USB on the PC, so you won't be able to transfer files to the sd card, neither it shows on your tab.(it does show, but has different mount point, instead of sdcard1 your external card data will be found at /mnt/media_rw/(somerandomname) using any filemanager.
now you got the point? you can try titanium backup to look your files at that location.

Yes, these files worked successfully on my SG Tab2-10.1 (P5113). The only issue I'm experiencing is with my 16G external SD card. Storage & USB in settings reads it on tablet, but 'File Manager' and 'ES File Explorer' apps do not. Desktop connection via USB also does not show external storage.

a few minor questions

Thanks for the explanation! I just installed CM 13, and it seems to be running smoothly so far.
A few minor questions:
What root manager apps works with CM 13? I just tried SuperSU from the Playstore, apparently it only supports up to Lollipop since it kept giving me error messages when trying to install the binaries.
Also, is there a setting to change the time in the upper-right corner to show AM/PM?

Going back to cm12.1 . Dont like the externalsd card problems. Dont know why they changed it, but it su..... . But must say that ROM works fine. Hope they change external sd card usage, to come back on it.

You don't need supersu, it's pre rooted, go into developers settings and enable root from there for app and adb. Go into setting time and date, change time format to 12 hour

I have a problem with this.
When I use ES File Manager in CM13 and go to /mnt/media_rw/ I see an empty folder even though I have a micro-sd card inserted which contains data. When I go to settings-->Storage & USB, Marshmallow shows me my external microsd-card as "sdcard1" under "mobile storage" with 42 of 59 GB used.
I did NOT use the internal-storage open introduced in Marshmallow. I want to keep my microsd-card as an external device.
When I turn the screen of and on again, I'm in the lock-screen and I see a notification which reads "SD-Card by Samsung - for transferring fotos and media" and when I double-tap on the notification, a file-manager opens and shows me all the files and folders saved to my external microsd-card and then I can access all files and folders contained on the microsd-card, I can listen to music, open PDFs and so on.
How can I acess the microsd- card with a file manager ? How can I copy files from my tablet's internal storage to the microsd-card and vice versa ?
Of course, when I connect my tablet with my windows-pc using the usb-cable, the microsd-card also does not show up on the PC.
And as I said before, the /mnt/media_rw/ folder is empty so I really don't know how to copy files to and from my microsd-card.
Help please.

Have you tried using the built in file manager to locate it in /mnt/media_rw/ ?

Regarding the SD issues. Have anyone tried making it adoptable?
http://m.androidcentral.com/inside-marshmallow-adoptable-storage
This can also be done from terminal emulator by typing:
su
sm set-force-adoptable true
And then rebooting.
