Hi everyone! I'm new here, please don't shout at me!
Basically, I've been rooting and installing recoveries images all night. But I've run into a problem. I was going to flash to the Super-Hybrid HD-Desire ROM by MicroMod777 (link to thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784260) but it won't install, and now won't boot past the Nexus colour logo with the unlock bootloader padlock symbol at the botom. Here is what I did to get to this stage:
Followed these guides: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Nexus_One:_Full_Update_Guide
http://androidandme.com/2010/01/hacks/video-how-to-unlock-and-root-a-nexus-one/
I then downloaded said ROM and put it in my SD card like it said, and booted into ClockWork from ROM Manager. I tried to flash it, but it didn't work, coming up with this error:
E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)

E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcblk0p2

E:Can't mount SDEXT:
E:Failure at line 24:
copy_dir PACKAGE:ext SDEXT:
Installation aborted.
I then did a factory wipe, and that didn't work, so I wiped the cache partitions. Nothing worked, always the same error. I also did a restore before I tried to flash for the first time, I've tried to restore that, but it doesn't work either; it also says that it can't mount SD-EXT, but I don't know if this is the error.
I can still get into the bootloader (trackball + power buton) and get to recovery through there, and I saw someone say in a thread here that if you can get into the bootloader it is basically impossible to be bricked. The phone will also not mount when I connect it to the PC, however the PC knows it's there, as I can see the phone, and on fastboot's menu it says 'fastboot usb'.
I hope some of you guys can help me! I really do love my phone, I need it ASAP! Ideally, I'd get onto the ROM I mentioned above, but restoring it to factory settings would also be perfect. Whatever is easier!
Thanks

Hello!
I'm trying to find out where to see a list of parameters I can use in there.
I'm using the ClockworkMod recovery (even if I think it's just universal that part), but if I write in that cache file "boot-recovery --nandroid" nothing happens when I reboot into recovery, if I set just "--nandroid" it says "E: invalid arguments"...
What I want to achieve is to execute a nandroid backup and then one or more update zip files. Is it possible?
Thanks!
no one has any idea?

The problem is that the ROM you flashed doesn't include the dbdata.rfs file. You will be able to extract one from the JM6 ROM from Samfirmware or from the JMG package I put together, here's a link to the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10892253&postcount=305 You can flash dbdata.rfs directly to your Tab as it is now with Heimdall or otherwise you'll need to flash a ROM package like my JMG one that contains dbdata.rfs with Odin.
Hi all,
Currently running Rom kitchen 2.2 (JVB based), along with fugumod 3.7 normal kernel, and armani modem.
Recently, every time i boot into recovery i get the following lines:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I can use all the functionality of the CWM interface, flashed other roms since etc, and it all works fine. I just get these messages - frustrating.
Im fairly sure they have only been present since flashing to 2.3.3 roms.
Any help as to how i can fix this?
(done a search, can't find anything useful)

I have the same error as you do. Can't restore any backups via CWM on top of that the USB storage mounting doesnt work properly any more. I can mount but windows just hangs when trying to access the internal or external SD.
Any help would be nice! Running Gingerbread too.
Same error here. running Juwes 4.3.1 with fugumod 3.8
I am not 100% sure... but it may be a kernel mismatch with the ROM you are using? Try changing to the Rom suggested Kernel and see if it fixes the issue...
Sounds like what happen to me last week.
check out my thread, hope it helps !

Thanks guys.
Fixed mine by flashing 2.2.1 Rom using PIT file and re-partition via Odin.
Ive unlocked it and followed the proper steps to root it but when im in Clockworks mod or TWRP, I get the same "cannot mount" errors like unable to mount /data etc etc.
Thinking i did something wrong, i looked for an alternative and found wugs Nexus Root Toolkit 2.0.5
Everything runs smoothly, even did a successful factory flash to 5.1.1 and retried rooting.
Same errors, unable to mount. Im not sure whats causing these errors but would it have something to do with "secure boot enabled" ?
Ive been googling this since yesterday and I cant find a concrete answer as too why TWRP cannot mount or find anything.
Nexus 7 2013 LMY47V
Some errors:
E: Unable to find partition size for '/boot' and '/recovery' and '/misc'
E: Primary block device '/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata' for mount point '.data' is not present!
E: unable to recreate /data/media folder.
E: unable to find partition size for '/sbl1/
E: unable to mount '/system' and '/data' and '/cache'
Nothing? Am I missing something completely obvious? Sorry if I am, ive only ever rooted a kindle fire hd once a few years ago.
I guess ill be using no root firewall then? Funny thing I always though the adblock app needed root to work but its working without it.
Shame I cant remove hardware programs like "google +"

Wow i have the same **** with mine same version and same device... you find a solution
I was having the same issue and after a few hours of searching, I found this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/nexus-7-2013-qa/mount-recovery-t3064562
It seems like there's a new version out that doesn't work quite as easily as just flashing the latest TWRP version.

I m facing the same problem. Sir please Help...
I had the same problem, I was trying to flash the cyanogen mod 12.1 on my studio 5 c hd. The solution, as answered by the creator from said rom, was to install the wiko base. I'm still configuring the wiko base, if it work i'll report here. But, it's worth trying.
Sorry for my english, it's not my first language.

Download the stock ROM of your phone and flash it via SP flash tool.
And as for recovery only CWM recovery works for the JB version and CTR for KK.

Most of the custom ROMs are based on Wiko rainbow base which supports all recoveries. If you want to flash Custom roms you should flash wiko rainbow v13 stock ROM via SP flash tool.
