[Q] Galaxy Note Recovery

I downloaded the latest CM10 ROM but when I was flashing it I came across an error, and now I have no other ROM on my phone so I need to transfer one from my PC, but it doesn't go past recovery mode. So i searched XDA and found an answer that said to MOUNT USB from recovery on clockwork mod, but that didn't help, my PC doesn't recognize the phone except as an unknown device, i.e i cant explore it and drivers i found on XDA didn't help to recognize the device. Please help. I have the new CM10 ROM downloaded and ready, how do I transfer it to my phone?

Use a card reader if you have an external SD card in your Note.

Try to this Samsung driver pack. see if it helps at all.

should also check/change cable and change computer as well.

[Q] HELP! I rooted my HTC ONE 801n everything was fine until...

Hey you guys what's up!
I unlocked the bootloader on my HTC One via HTC Devs and flashed a custom recovery (CWM) and then flashed Cyanogenmod 10.1 and everything was AMAZING and great I was updating the nighties almost daily and I was having a blast! Then my Google Apps stopped working. They would have a server error repeatedly and I couldnt update my apps on Play store or use G+ or sync my email none of my Gapps were working. So i figured i'd relfash my GAPPS and thats exactly what i did still nothing changed. So I wiped the device and reinstalled Cyanogenmod. In the welcome screen when i sign to Gmail, it gave me the same server error. So I wiped the sd card by accident and now i'm on Recovery but NO ROMS to flash! And because the phone doesn't support an external SD Card, I cannot add the rom again to flash it via recovery! I tried to adb sideload but it wont work the adb installer keeps telling my windows 8 64bit error! Also, I tried to mount the sdcard to copy the rom again and flash it in recovery but it wont mount my computer wont read the phone. It gives me the alert that the phone is connected but i do not get to access the memory to copy a rom to it.
Now I'm stuck with a HTC One that has CWM recovery and no roms to boot. Please please help!
Thanks

This happened to me. With cwm you'll just have to side load a new zip. Use adb sideload ROM.zip this should get you back in business.

Thats what i initially tried to do, when i go to sideload adb the command screen i type in the command but nothing happens on the phone

If you have an OTG cable it will come in handy here. Try uninstalling the drivers and reinstall them

Why would an OTG cable come in handy? I have one but haven't really found any practical uses for it beside hooking up a mouse, keyboard, or sd reader.

after reading my own post, im guessing to to put zip files on an sd card when you cant use adb?

I'm having a similar problem, I can't access the sdcard (or /data directory) and don't have an OTG cable. Any way I can access the /data directory? recoveries keep showing it as 0MB. :/
---
EDIT: Got it fixed. Sideload didn't work on TWRP. I tried using CWM and it froze the computer I was doing it from. I tried again from another computer and I decided to wait a few minutes and it started pushing it. Eventually the rom installed and all is well!
I think the problem occured when trying to install a rom before and recovery rebooted in the middle of the installation which messed up the /data directory. I lost all access to it and ended up wiping it all (prob didn't need to) and sideload fixed it.

boys, i figured it out. I have used a OTG Cable copied the rom to a usb stick and bam! i'm a satisfied customer!

Hi my htc one has gone into meltdown.
Whilst clearing it all of,ive wiped the os off. now all ive got is twrp,i cant mount it with this recovery to get a rom back on..
Can i install cwm..? will that mount the sd card still? via fastboot for the mount function
or will this work?
http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-tutorials/how-to-copy-files-to-htc-one-using-twrp-mount-and-adb/
are there any other options to get a rom back on there, bit worried to be honest!

Sideload / Push
TWRP / Advanced / Sideload
From PC adb /fastboot folder
you use
adb sideload yourRpom.zip
or
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/
just make sure the rom is in the same folder as adb / fastboot

Just curious, why people always talking about side-load a ROM.zip when they can install a ROM.zip with an OTG cable connected ? Is it the TWRP OTG not working ? Sorry for asking, just curious.

I'll give it a try when back home. If that doesn't work is there a back up plan to that ?

Not everyone has a OTG cable, so it's easier to assume they haven't and post a solution that's appropriate to their needs.

need help Nexus 6 i wiped everything by mistake stuck on twrp recovery

Hi XDA users i really need some help!!
my buddy is into rooting androids and doing all kinds of stuff to them. i bought a nexus 6 and he rooted it added cyanogenmod and twrp recovery.
I soon upgraded my phone and let my cousin use my nexus 6 cause he lost his phone.
when he gave it back I wanted to erase everything and sign back in to my account so i went into twrp recovery and by accident instead of factory reset i formatted the phone which erased everything. so now it doesn't have anything in the internal storage of the phone.
it is now stuck on twrp if i boot it all i see is the google startup screen and it stays there.
my laptop wont recognize the phone so i cant add cyanogenmod ROM and I bought
did i ruin this phone? anyone encountered this before?
i will ad pictures tonight

Get it hooked up to a computer (update drivers on your laptop if needed), get a flashable ROM onto your phone's storage, and flash in TWRP

Just use a otg cable to hook up usb stick to the phone and use that to install the rom

Preferably, download a fresh stock ROM from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu
Then either get the drivers to work properly on your laptop or hook your phone up to another computer and transfer it over to flash. Shouldn't have anything to worry about

I do this all the time. You just wiped the OS and internals and only have TWRP. I do this when I want to complete clear my phone. You can either use an OTG stick or fastboot to flash a new ROM.
No one else here has mentioned this, but you can also use fastboot to adb push a ROM zip into your internal SD card if you do not have an OTG stick.

you can't use fastboot to flash any ROM but the factory image, and you can NOT use fastboot to adb push anything. you can only use adb to adb push stuff. and you dont need to use anything to move a rom into storage using twrp. and I do this every time I want to flash clean.

Yea, not too big of an issue really. Boot into TWRP and like the others said, transfer a ROM and gapps to the phone and just flash those, or alternatively, you can use fastboot to flash a stock image, if you want to go that route and need help with that, pm me and I'll run you through it! We all gotta learn these simple steps right? let me know!

I have a 64gb 3.0 sandisk OTG stick with the ROM but my nexus 6 is not recognizing it so adding a OTG cable in between might work?

Boot into TWRP and then plug into your PC, it should recognize it and let you move files.

thank you everyone for replying!! so pretty much this is what i have tried.
i connected it to three different laptops and none pick up the phone while i am in twrp recovery.
i bought a 64gb 3.0 sandisk OTG stick and put the ROM in their and the phone is not recognizing the external drive.
how do i update the drivers? maybe thats it.
am i using the wrong OTG stick?

Easiest way that's totally fool proof, download the nexus root toolkit from wugfresh.com and click the option to install drivers, then click "step 3" and it will install it for you without getting the full android SDK.

Try a different one if you have it. My Sandisk USB thumb drive to OTG cable does not recognize, but I have an HP thumbdrive that does.

I have this: http://www.amazon.com/LIFETIME-WARRANTY-Electronics-Micro-Cable/dp/B005GGBYJ4
It's basically a microUSB connector to USB. You can connect thumb drives, keyboards, mouses, etc..................I always keep a copy of TWRP and a ROM (dosen't matter what, I keep Pure Nexus) on it at all times. I've had to flash TWRP from my back up once b/c a CM based ROM corrupted TWRP.

What i noticed is that if i am already booted into twrp and then hook up my stick it isnt recognized either. But when i boot into twrp with the stick already hooked up its recognized.

Yeah same here. You either need to plug in first to get the phone to recognize it then go into twrp. If it doesn't then do a soft reboot to the rom then reboot into twrp agaib

Total wipe: USB sideload from ipad?

Well guys I ****ed up. Got carried away and made full wipe and then, with no system, formatted data. So I've just got twrp right now :crying::silly: and no computer to sideload or fastboot anything.
Anybody knows if it is possible to transfer stuff from ipad to android phone through OTG? Or any other way to put back system with twrp without computer? I guess not but well it's worth a try since I will not have computer access in about a month...

Maybe through usb OTG from another android? I got my nexus 5 with me...

I figure I can try putting files on a pendrive from the nexus via otg and sideloading to the mix on twrp with otg too... I guess theoretically should work?

No possible cable connection to ipad as Papps said, no. But I hope I can put files on a pendrive (with the nexus5) and then flash them on the Mix
Will try soon and then leave Mix alone for a while (I hope)...

Sure, pendrive is an option. If it has not type c connector you need an adapter and you could mount it within twrp. Twrp you could flash for example with flashify.

That was the idea but until I connected pendrive to nexus via OTG to upload files I didn't realize: it had to be formatted as portable storage by the nexus. The Mix in twrp then does not recognize it and cannot mount... Well it was a good try.
I'll keep investigating cause giving up easily is not in me but it looks like I'll just have to wait
Thanks Papps

Send a Mi Mix rom in your Nexus, go to twrp(or any of them which is installed, or even it's installed?!?) Twrp probably will recognise it without formatting, send it to your pendrive and plug it into your Mix.

I manage to put files into the usb on nexus' twrp, but then the mix does not recognize it. No way to mount it, to select usb otg or to see the files that are there in the avdanced/file manager...
They are not Mix's rom files but they are zips, I don't think that can make a difference...
Ah, using a pendrive that didn't need to be and wasn't formatted... Used it in nexus twrp no problem but in mix is like if it wasn't connected

I made it
It was my first idea but I was doing it the wrong way. Connected directly Mix (with its charging cable) to Nexus's OTG usb. And it works as an external compatible storage
Downloading all kinds of zips now in an awfully slow wifi :silly:
