I've tired installing Cyanogen 12 (and CM12 based roms) with TWRP and CWM, but they didn't work ("this package is for 5803, this is aries" error) and a few posts on here recommend Cyanogenmod recovery, which broke adb, won't get files from SD, won't mount internal storage, and made my system bootloop. My device is unlocked. How can I get Cyanogen installed?

Hello,
I flashed MIUI and it was very buggy for me, all apps were crashing and so on. Then i decided to flash Darky 10.1.
Followed the tutorial without any issues, but after this i got no signal. Snooped around the OS and found out it did not see my sdcard. After booting in recovery mode I saw that it could not mount the efs partition.
If i try to mount it via shell i get:
Code:
# mount /dev/block/stl4 /efs
mount: mounting /dev/block/stl4 on /efs failed: Invalid argument
I unfortunetly have no backup of the efs partition.
Did anyone else experience this problem or has a fix for this?
Push. I have that problem too... I was on Darkys ROM for some months without any flashing problems. Now i wanted to change from Darkys ROM 10.1 (Gingerbread 2.3.4) to Galnet MIUI. I had to downgrade to Froyo and then install the CWM zip in CWM. This was NOT succesful. It always says "Installation aborted (Status 7)". Then i tried to install CyanogenMod 7.1. Upgraded to Gingerbread Stock with CWM 3 and when i first flashed it via ODIN the phone first booted in the standart Android CWM display (dont know the name sry). The phone automatically formated cache etc. but then it showed me 2 times "/efs is not mounted". I was able to boot and to open CWM but ALWAYS when i want to install ANY CWM ROM it shows me the message with Status 7 ...
How can i mount /efs again and make CWM ROM Flashing able again?
Thank you.
hi
Im having a lot of problems with my phone, I tried to load a new ROM, and I cant!!
Im using CWM 6.0.2.8
when I boot up it says
Cant Mount Cache/recovery/command
Cant Mount Cache/recovery/log
Cant Open Cache/recovery/log
Cant Mount Cache/recovery/last_log
Cant Open Cache/recovery/last_log
when I do a factory wipe, it gets stuck on
Formatting /cache
When I try to wipe/format the cache partition, it is the same story.
When I try to install a new rom, I get
image attached. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP. Also some of my root software is corrupt.
What do I do?
I think I had same problem, wiping the cache part took quite long, but I eventually was able to install my new rom... though all my apps are still there, but at least part of the new rom is there (custom nav bar)
pretty much the same errors I got
ps: you're trying to flash cm 10.1, do you have a kernel for it ? read somewhere you shouldn't use CWM for flashing cm 10.1 with kernel ...
found it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2167381
[ known issues ]
adb doesnt work in recovery (can be fixed)
USB storage doesnt mount in recovery (can be fixed, i think)
formating data partition WILL FORMAT THE INTERNAL STORAGE (FIXED IN v02)
external SDCARD is required to take backups and flashing ROM (FIXED IN v02)
do not use this for flashing CM10.1 (u will need to use the CM kernel for that)
that's what the link says, you need CM kernel for it

Problem:
Stuck at bootscreen after installing Roboto 4.3 via Rom Toolbox Pro. I'm on ARHD 12.0.
Fastboot erase cache, full wipe, dalvik wipe etc. pp didn't help.
ADB-Sideload also didn't work due to a mysteriously & out of the blue non-mountable internal SD. Something was borked when I installed the new typo, dunno how and why.
So, re-flashing ARHD from my laptop wouldn't work, furthermore I deleted ARHD.zip from my internal SD; but anyway, the SD was to no avail -> no chance to grab a Nandroid.
Solution:
I firstly changed the recovery on my black lady by flashing TWRP in order to substitute CMW. TWRP allowed me to access and mount an USB-OTG, which hasn't shown up on CMW (v6.0.3.4) at all.
So, finally I placed the ARHD.zip on the external drive, mounted the drive and flashed the ROM 2 times, as the first flash freezed on 20%. But then it went throu, the ROM settled down and the bootscreen stuck was gone.
I tried installing one of the 10 stable versions. I was on stock jw4 with cf+cwm karnel. It started installing and then went into boot in middle for no reason. But it didn't boot. It just kept booting into recovery (not the cwm version i had) with the cm logo.
I tried installing again but it aborted installation every time. (didn't check the log)
I then tried to go back to stock but never boots,in recovery i get a bunch of:
E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount /sdcard
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu
for format and reboot actions.
Meida files copy failed.
system unable to Format /data...Internal SD card cannot be mounted
rfs format failed on dev block etc etc etc
I tried all the ways i found here but none helped,worked on it for hours. I also flashed a bunch of stock versions with no luck. All just went to recovery with all these erros. Only thing that actually booted was a very old version stock jp something,got same message on recovery but then booted into...cm10 . I just got the boot and then black screen with buttons looking like they are on.
I then gave up and decided i would install cm and hopefully that would be compatible with what ever was changed since it happened because of it.
I now tried installing all the 10 stable versions and then all the 11snapshots. I either get error 7 or 0 and installation aborted or the same thing that happened the first time-it starts installation and then boots, gets stuck in (cm logo) bootloop and ends up in recovery.
ATM my phone is kind of bricked i guess. How do i fix this?
