Did you Take the OTA and then stuff broke?
If you look in the marhmallow thread under general says "its here",there is a gentleman i believe /u/DTR8UPX that uploaded a complete stock backup.if youve already taken the 6.0.1(MM) OTA and cant boot to android,i suggest restoring that from TWRP if you can access it. This happened to me yesterday,and i spent countless hours trying to find a solution.please be sure to thank his post if you do use it.

You can format your sdcard in TWRP under advanced wipe.go to advanced wipe then check micro sd card and it will format it from there.

If TWRP wont format it,it may be corrupted/unusable.you dont have like a 4GB or anything else kicking around somewhere?if you dont theyre ridiculously inexpensive or even maybe borrow a friends?unless you can access the sdcard or internal storage,im afriad theres not much you can do to fix the issue at hand.sorry,just trying to help with ideas here.

You should have folders structured for TWRP on both your internal and sdcard.,something like /TWRP/BACKUPS/YOURSERIALNO/Name of backup. So you want to extract the backup STR8UPX made,then place the first folder after his Serial # in YOUR serial Numbers folder.ive attached a pic to show you how my folder structure is.
Keep in mind the structure is the same only thing that would be different for you is that its on internal storage.

So using a different phone the SDcard works? It maybe that the SDcard reader on the G1 is failing. I would try to use Paragon Partition Manager and see if that helps.

Nope, it'll only fix the SDcard. The SDcard reader on your G1 won't be affected. If it's broke, it's broke.

[Q] E: Can't mount /sdcard/ and no files found

Ive been having trouble and flashing roms for the past week trying to get my captivate to boot, but i constanly either get into a boot loop or i load into a black screen.
In CWM 5.1.0.7, when i choose "Install zip from sdcard > Choose zip from sdcard" i get a "E: Can't mount /sdcard/" error.
If i go to "Reformatting, tweaks and more > System Information > Browse directories and files", ill get "No files found." on a few of the directories and my /bin folder only has "init.goldfish.sh" in it. most of them have only bare minimal things in them. (im not sure if this is normal or not)
How should i go about fixing this?

according to me , no there is no hope...
bt according to some users, their sd card came back to life after some time and then got bricked again...
and also no to the stock, it boots up bt cannot really do anything..
you can now use cm10,10.1,10.2, 11 roms using neat kernel..

4 days later, I finally have the time to have one last follow up problem. I've flashed a CM11 nightly and my external sd shows up as my main storage in settings. I can download apps but i still can't access my camera or save pictures from the internet(it tells me "no SD card , and sd card is required to download). Also tested this with the voice recorder, it wouldnt start and told me the same thing.
Is this normal with the method you gave or have i done something wrong?

I got it completely working with your advice but when i took the phone out of my pocket it was stuck on the neat kernal loading screen and rebooting it wouldnt help. I decided to flash back to stock and redo the process. I wiped all data etc. in recovery but when i went to partition the sd card again in cwm it finished instantly.
My pc wouldnt read it and even my another phone didnt detect it was there.
I'm assuming the SD card just died, its verbatim 8gig(Not sure if thats a reliable brand or not).
Could this be because i did something wrong is it just a coincidence with the sd card dying? Im buying a sandisk soon anyhow.

i found the solution. if you did a backup it will work. in cwmr you navigate: backup and restore and confirm,than navigate to advanced restore and confirm. you will get a backup file,confirm on that file,now navigate to restore sd-ext and confirm and wait.after done,reboot. now works with no problems. i had same problem,i downloaded 5 roms for htc from this site(developers) and all have same annoying thing with external card. if i restore my whole system always work.so problem are those roms,something is not made it properly sigh.

You put it on the root of your sd card and just use TWRP but you have to be on version 2.8.6.0 if you want to flash images which is what that is.

Well after you're done downloading that extract it first but you should have a program on the computer to extract with... I use winrar because it's easy and does everything... After you extract it you need to get it onto your SD card but make sure it's in the root of the SD and not inside of any folder and then go in TWRP and wipe system dalvic, cache and data and then go back and restore/install the stock rom you're downloading now.

I'm a bit confused there, I extracted it and the files are in the folder called cricketstock2014-12-22, what should I do from there? and if I can't put it on the root of my sd card then where should I put it at? thanks for spending your time and helping me.

You need to get that whole file on your sd card but first let's try to just drop the entire file you downloaded the ".rar" and wipe the system like I said and go into TWRP and click install and see if it installs if it doesn't come back and let me know.

I figured it wasn't gonna show the rar file so do this one.
The next thing you should try is this... Use your computer to navigate inside of your sd card and look for this and click TWRP and then click Backups then you should see a folder similar to this FA48XSR09828 (but not the same as mine) click into that one and then take the entire extracted folder this one "cricketstock2014-12-22" and copy it in there and yes it needs to be in this folder so you need to somehow get it in there..

After you get that entire folder into your TWRP backup folder go back to wipe and wipe the thing's I mentioned and then go back again and this time click restore and you should see the cricketstock2014-12-22 folder tap to install that.

no it should not be on the internal storage the phone doesn't have enough room to do what I'm saying this file 900mb is to big for internal storage check on your external storage for the backup folder if it's not there we have to do something.

I cannot find a TWRP Nor backup file, I never backed up my stock rom when I flashed a new rom for the first time.

Alright do this then... Put your SD card back in the phone, boot into TWRP and then click backup and then make sure it's NOT set to try backing up to your internal storage make sure it says SD or ext_sd and then backup the broken system you have because this will then create that backup folder you need on your SD card that you can't find since you never made a backup up before after it creates the folders go ahead and copy the cricket folder in there then go back to the main screen and tap restore and then you should see the folder you copied in there as long as TWRP is set to external storage if it says internal again then change it back.

How do I backup up the broken system if i'm on nonsense? or do I just regularly backup just like normal? sorry for making you type and all. But I appreciate all the help you're giving me so far.

just make a backup the normal way. Just go into TWRP and tap backup and go from there until it's done backing up the messed up system. You only need to do this so we can get the stock recovery into the backup folder that you can't find.
