I just downloaded berryboot and installed android 4.4 kitkat on my raspberry pi 2. I got access to android system image on my sdcard via ubuntu. is there a way to mount that image, so I can take a gapps kitkat zip and extracted its contents into the system image so that way I can access the playstore.

Hello all - I am trying to upgrade from CM9 to CM11 using [ROM] [NIGHTLY] [KitKat] [4.4] CyanogenMod 11.0 nightlies [3.0 kernel],
I repartitioned the drive with Tailor as suggested, and upgraded my CWM to (6.0.4.7)
My problem now is how do i get access the ROM/GAPPs zips? I can copy them over USB on my Win7 Machine to this folder, but CWM doesnt see them/cant access them.
I only have access to this folder in Win7. tried doing a clean install, and still no look.
Computer\cm_tenderloin\SD Card\rom.zip
the only options i have under "choose zip" in CWM are
/sdcard/0/clockworkmod - how do i get the rom zips there? i am totally stumped. i tried ADP to sideload a rom but the device isnt found. thanks in advance!!
Complete install of Android on the device
HI
I was in the same position I'd tried everything. In the end I decided to start from the beginning. What I did was pretty hardcore. I completely uninstalled Android. You need to erase the usb drive in Webos. you do this by booting into WebOS, going to settings/device info/reset options/erase USB drive. Remember before you do any of this get all you data of your device to you PC. Once this is done you are ready to install Android again. Now I found it was easier to upgrade from CM10.2 Data/Media build to CM11. So I installed Android on the device using these four files;
- moboot_38
- CM10.2,update-cm-10.2-20140126-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin.zip
- update-gapps-jb4.3-20130813-signed.zip
- update-recovery-clockwork-no_metadata-6.0.3.6-20130926-tenderloin.zip
These files are available as a package at rootzwiki.com. There you will also find instructions on how to install android again and how to unistall android as well. Once android is installed now you need to resize the media and data partitions with tailor in webos. Now that this done you are ready to upgrade to CM11. So then booted up my device into Android. Then I connected it to my PC. enable USB conductivity on the device. I created a folder on the device on the now larger data partition (I used the same cminstall name for the folder).Transfered the CM11 (milaq version), Gapps and CMW 6.04.7 to this folder.
I would then boot into recovery. Now were going to update the CMW. choose install from zip find the folder and the CMW 6.0.4.7 file. install it.
once installed boot back into recovery. Now were going to inst CM11. First you need Perform a factory/data reset and wipe/format cache partition. Once this is done your ready to install CM11 and the Gapps. Choose install from zip. Find the cminstall folder you made install. then do exactly the process with the Gapps.
Android CM11 Milaq should work. This worked for me.
Hope this helps.
cheers

I am starting from a cm10.2 rom and i am encountering the same problem that the original poster is.
Was running Mi3w AOSP 4.9.18 and the OTA 4.11.4 update to would not run. Searched for the update version number and found the zip to be 352 MB named miui_mi3w_ivan_4.11.4_9c8cb87249_4.4.zip, no 'OTA' in the file name. I forced the install with CWM after factory reset and wiping caches. The image seems to come with Gapps micro installed and I threw Xposed with Gravity and XuiMod on it without major issue.
Thought I would share if anyone has the same issue. Just use a root file browser and search for 4.11.4. Copy the file to the SDcard and use Clockwork Mod to install it.
Hi,
I upgraded my Android to version 4.4.4 via the updater following these steps (from what I can recall).
1) I downloaded the latest Release version & the latest Gapps files locally to the tablet & went to recovery.
2) I took a backup, wiped Dalvik cache & apply update from sdcard.
3) I ran the Android release build zip file but forgot to run the Gapps zip file.
4) Android upgraded to version 4.4.4 but when I log in I get prompted that 'Unfortunately Google Play Store has stopped' . As I forgot to run the Gapps zip file that is to be expected.
When I boot into recovery it can only see the following directories & not the update folder where the Gapps file was downloaded.
Android
DCIM
LOST.DIR
appdata
clockworkmd
downloads
ringtones
wallpapers
The recovery doesn't seem to be able to see the sdcard & only the internal storage.
However if I copy the Gapps zip file to any of the folders above, boot to recovery again it won't see the zip file.
I also seem to have wiped my backup trying to recovery the situation so can't roll back.
Within the recovery menu I've tried to mount/unmounts the below but it still can't see any of the folders.
Mount /boot
Unmount /cache
Mount /data
Mount /system
unmounts /sdcard
The above is my current settings but I've tried mounting them all.
To complicate the matter further the USB port on the tablet is broken so I can't connect it to my computer.
Previously to transfer files I used a ftp client on my laptop & Wifi File Transfer Pro on the tablet.
I don't know whether to finally give up on my touchpad so any help/advice is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chip

Access to the sdcard has to be enabled by the developer. You must have installed one that doesn't (since you didn't specify which it was)

Here is the build info currently on the tablet.
Kernel Version:
3.4.82-tenderloin
Mod Version:
ev_ternderloin=testing-2015.01.22
Build number:
ev_tenerloin-eng 4.4.4 KTU84Q eng.flintman.20150122.215911 test-keys
If this build doesn't recognise the sdcard, should it not recognise the Gapps zip file on the internal storage?
There is 1.4GB in total on the internal storage with 388MB free.
Do you know if there is anyway I could get a build of Android & Gapps on the tablet & upgrade to that?
Thanks for responding to the thread.

I doubt you've used the latest and proper way to install 4.4/5.0 ROM's. Go here. Start over and follow the instructions to the letter. Read everything first and decide how you want to proceed before doing anything.
Hello,
I'm running a rooted Lollipop 5.0.1 ("LRX22C.WW_epad-V12.14.1.17_20150713 044030454_201502120108") on my ASUS MemoPad 7 (ME572C) (WiFi + LTE) and I'd like to install the "Xpose for Lollipop" framework to it.
Therefore I downloaded the necessary files ("XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk" and "xposed-v72-sdk-x86.zip"). Installation of the apk was no problem, but I ran into problems when trying to install the zip. It seems that I only can install it via a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP. And to install one of this it's presupposed to have an unlocked bootloader. But I learned that it is currently impossible to unlock the bootloader officialy.
So I tried the following to install the zip without having a custom recovery:
tried the apps "Flashify (for root users)" and "[ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool" without success. Flashify reports to have installed the zip but when I opened a file browser to check if the files were copied into the system folder or its subfolders they were not copied. And Rashr just installs zips when a custom recovery is installed
tried to copy the zip contents manually to the system folder and its subfolders with my "TotalCommander" file browser without success because writing access to that folder were denied
tried to copy the zip contents manually to the system folder and its subfolders with the root file browser of my "ROM Toolbox Pro". I was able to copy the files, but after restart it seems that the Memo Pad is stuck in a boot loop AFTER displaying the INTEL logo
Now I'm of the opinion, that I need to install a custom recovery. But how do I do that without unlocking the bootloader? There must be a way because I saw articles in the internet saying that they have flashed such a recovery but don't telling how.
Is there someone who can tell me how I do that?
hi, as i mentioned in the title: i am in that twrp recovery, I am not able to check the files of realme ui OS zip file. i am able to copy the OS zip file to internal storage but i am not able see those files in twrp recovery. currenlty no OS is installled in my X2pro. need suggestions. should i download and flash another twrp file of lower version to check the same?
