Hi all, I'm traing to install a fix, and clockworkMod recovery can't mount /sdcard.
do anyone have a clue on how to fix this?
tks!
I am also having this issue,
i'm using an 8G and 2G sd cards, tried to format them through the computer and through the phone but with no luck
i'm using clockwork recovery 2.5.1
try making a folder on your sd card, clockworkmod.
tried that, and it started working for me, dunno if it was a coincidence though.
2nd init

I had the same problem. I think its due to the original JRDNEM_U3_2.59.0 sbf.
SO... Use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853674
When choosing your firmware select the Nordic 2.2.2 (Froyo) version [JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_177-005]. Then re-root using : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913709
Then you should be able to mount sd card in CWM.

Please tell me how you installed CM7 on the Defy.
I've been trying to install a custom ROM (CyanogenMod) all day on my phone but now I'm pulling my hair out by the clumps. This seems to be one stubborn device to play with. My desire didn't give me any trouble at all.
Please help with the following queries I have:
I have installed 2nd init boot and then was accessing clockworkmod through that.
But when I try backing up my ROM I get the error "cannot mount /sdcard".
On the defy if I press up and power on I get the default bootloader with battery check. I can only get into clockworkmod from the recovery app.
On my desire, I can directly boot into ClockworkMod Recovery by pressing up and power button. I don't remember now how I got t to do that, but I would like that in my Defy too. I suppose this will solve the sdcard problem?
What must I do to install a custom ROM on defy??
EDIT: I followed the cyanogenmod wiki at first and in their method I got stuck at the cp -R command, where I got the error "cannot stat, no such file or directory found" or something like that. I'm at my wits' end here, please help me!

This is hell annoying but simple solution worked on LGO2X. Reinsert SDCARD while in Recovery. It should work in all devices. Nothing stupid to try. Tell me...
It is because you formated your sd card with some other file system. Just go to settings / sdcard and storage . Unmount your sdcard and format it. It will get mounted in cwm from now on .

Still Can't mount sdcard, after formatting and creating folder on sdcard
phone and software details:
ClockWorkMod Recovery v2.5.1.8
Motorola Defy Eclair, OS 2.1, kernel 2.6.29
SndInitDefy_2.0.apk (Defy 2ndinit)
Android Bootmenu v0.6.1
USB Debugging is NOT on when I reboot.
I formatted the card, remounted it in normal operation, then tried going into the Android Bootmenu and mounting the sdcard, formatting it, backup but none of them worked b/c it couldn't mount the sdcard.
I also tried doing the same thing, but not remounting it in normal operation and shutting it off to no avail.
I also tried adding the folder: /sdcard/clockworkmod but with no luck.
Specifically, when do Custom Recovery, then in ClockworkMod Recovery, do backup and restore and do backup, I get the error:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0{
(No such file or directory)
Can't mount /sdcard
This particular version of the OS makes rooting very difficult. z4root doesn't work as it exploited some security feature that was figured in the firmware update. Since I have a mac, even after using mono, I was not able to get SuperOneClick working (it hangs on "waiting for device"). So the only way I found to root was from this post:

Same issue on Galaxy S Plus
Have to same situation here with a Galaxy S Plus (9001). Everything works great mounted on the stock rom, but not in clockworkmod. Card is formated as FAT32 with clustersize at 1024 bytes. It's another phone but it might be the same issue ... Reinsert card while in recovery doesn't work, it reboots the recovery I think. Putting a folder 'clockworkmod' on the sdcard also doesn't work.

I have looked and done searches for this problem with no matches. Phone stuck in bootloop after battery died. Pulled battery and went to recovery, tried to restore after wiping showed error message for data wipe
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1.
(file exists)
When I tried to restore the attached results show up on the screen.
Any help with this situation would be greatly appreciated.
Try installing another rom. If that doesn't work, try flashing a new clockworkmod version.
Yes, I have tried three different roms and flashing a different recovery with the same type of results. The problem seems to be with data. Everything I try to do including wiping data ends up in an error message.
Hmm. Then you might try going back to stock from hboot and rerooting

Id start with the newest version of clockworkmod and an new SD card.
Unrooted using the RUU with reverted HTC drivers. Process seemed to go fine but when it reboots it gets stuck in a bootloop with original droid bootscreen. I still have s-off and am wary of removing for fear of being stuck.
You could try flashing super vr wipe and do it that way.
sounds like the sdcard isn't mounting. i would back up the sdcard then reformat it and try again. or try another sdcard if you have one handy i usually keep a spare around just in case.
Look up five vibe fix ...

This kind of thing frightens me to death about flashing a new ROM. I'm dying to get that 2.3 ROM that just posed but I'm afraid of bootloops, whitescreens and error messages etc.
It's really not that bad, as long as you dont touch it while its doing it's thing it works great. I just installed Ovo Community Mod Test RC5 and it is SICK!
You need to update your hboot to .92 first though.

Sounds like something isn't mounting, but I'm not sure if it's the SDcard. Those directories are on eMMC, aren't they? Not sure if this would help, but I'd check to see if it's mounted as read/write. Looks like it's read only.

I followed those directions and flashed the new 2.3.4 without any issues. I was originally on 2.2 rooted with unrevoked3
Much bigger problem. Now that I have run the RUU I no longer have clockwork recovery and cannot flash anything. When I reboot I get the droid bootscreen in bootloop. Frustration!
Have you tried just booting with the sd card removed? Issues with the sd card can stop it from booting
Also if you flashed the RUU your unrooted therefore have no cm recovery. You will need to root again for that.
Yes recovery was gone, attempted to flash clockwork again. When booting into recovery strange bar appeared and screen went black. After several tries with same results flashed Amon ra style recovery and now have this recovery but am still getting bootloops when flashing and having same E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (file exisits) error messages. Confident there is a solution but have no idea how to get there. Determined though! Any help is greatly appreciated.
It is saying read only file system . E:Error in CACHE:recovery/log
This is at the bottom of the recovery screen.
Ok, I've said this a few times on here, but I don't see were you've mentioned that you've tried it. Remove your SD card and see if it boots!

I tryed to install the CM Mod, first time, got the lastest file from 31/08, rename it on update.zip
Got root on my phone, using odin and replacing kernel.

I tried lots, i mean, lots of re instaling the .zip but it still dont pass that screen.
Right now only things i can do in phone is power+volume up+home button and go to ClockworkMod Recovery v4.0.0.2
or power+volume down+home and go to download screen.
Trying to install several times de CM Mod i got lots of lines (like 20+) them Error (code 7) install aborted.

I explored the backup and restore menu and i got a restore point, it give me the restore complete, but still locked on that screen.
Please .zip file that ill make my cell back.
I checked de checksum and the CM file is ok
What kernel did you flash? You need to be sure the kernel you flash is for gs2.

You probably flashed a bad rom. Simply wipe data from clockworkmod and install a zipped rom from there.
news on post
On android to mount a sd is like in Linux? Its mounted in a system folder?
YES ,is called "external_sd" .As for your problem i suggest downloading a stock ROM+original kernell on your PC (KH3 as an example) .Enter downloading mode and flash it thru Odin than use an insecure kernell to root and have CWM back on your device to be able to flash the next ROM from your internal sd (internal memory) and continue experiencing
By the way ,the flashable zipes must be on internal memory for CWM to see tham

I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.
unofficial Clockwork Mod Recovery 5.0.2.7 for u8800pro and u8800 [upgrade to offical 2.3 GB]
Installation Instructions (upgrading - root explorer method):
Using any file explorer which is able to remount as writeable (such as root explorer), browse to the /cust_backup directory and remount it as writeable
Navigate to the image directory and backup up the current recovery by renaming it to something like recovery.bak, or _recovery.img
Rename the downloaded recovery to recovery.img and copy to the image directory.
Installation Instructions (new install):
Unplug any usb connection and turn the phone completely off
Whilst holding both the volume + and volume - keys hold the power button to turn the device on. Let go when you see a pink/purple screen.
Attach the usb cable to your computer and wait until a few usb mass storage devices are detected and mounted. Look for one that has just one directory called 'image' in it. Navigate into this directory and you'll see recovery.img etc.
(optional) Rename recovery.img to recovery_backup.img
copy the new recovery.img to image, unmount the mass storage device (safely remove in windows) and then pull the battery out to turn the phone off.
Hold volume + and power to boot to recovery.
Install any custom rom
change：
mod the kernel,Ums is worked now
use zte u880‘s charge png
can install zip from emmc and use emmc backup&restore
add ext4 fs support
about SDcard
if you can't mount SDcard in recovery,do this:
enter "advanced"--"Reboot Recovery"
then you could use the SDcard
ps:this is issue of offical GB,not recovery!

Was it a backup you did with this CWM version? Or with the stockwell's CWM? The old backups don't work with this one I believe.
the backup its before this version of course. but even with this new CWM I cant flash new rom. I says error blablabla id u8800pro. I installed this because I wanted to try new ICSrom but now Im stuck to it lol

Have you flashed official GB before installing this recovery? I think you need to do that before this works in the original U8800.
yes I did ! the ICS works but not others.
Hmm, I tried to restore my backup from yesterday done with stockwells 5.0.2.6 recovery and my phone got ****ed up. I know I shouldn't have done this but I just had to try. xD Now I can't get past the Huawei logo, when I push the power the phone starts but just turns off after couple of seconds. I can get to bootloader (pink screen) but not to recovery. I hope no one else has tried this and I hope I get my phone working again.
Would anyone have any advice how to get my phone back up and running? Or should I just go bring it to warranty support?

Format your sd to FAT32 via the pc.
Insert sd card in Iconia (with power off)
Tab should recognize the sd.
Copy your zip to sd, and boot to recovery and select the zip
Ensure you select "install zip from sd"

AFTER you Root and use the AcerRecovery tool to install Thor's recovery, there are 2 common methods.
1. With the tablet off, press and hold both Vol - and the power button for a few seconds, until you see the text start to display in the upper left corner of the display. Then release both. It will finish booting to the recovery menu. Navigation is used by the vol rocker. Selection is the Pwr.
2. Download and install a ROM utility app that has the option to boot to recovery through the OS. This saves a little time as you don't have to power off manually.
However you need to have root enabled and if you're on HC 3.2+ then you REALLY need to read up on how to root your tab.
This is what the search bar is for in the top right corner.....
just rooted the unstable 3.1 and installed cwm 5.0 now im in recovery but i cant mount sd. I tryed formatting it, diddnt work. HELP
I'm a little late to the party...
My tab is rooted and i'm running tabooney 1.1 with thor's 1.3 recovery. i'm trying to install a new rom, but the recovery keeps saying "e: can't mount /sdcard"
i have a newly formatted (fat32) sdcard which i can see/browse with root file explorer.
edit: i installed the AcerRecovery tool from the market, flashed a newer version of the recovery, booted into recovery but i still cannot mount the sdcard.
what am i missing here?
i did some more homework/research and found a solution. it definitely wasn't a problem with the recovery since my micro-sdcard from my old htc thunderbolt worked just fine.
i formatted the card using the formatting utility found at sdcard.org (i found out about it somewhere on xda forums).
so after formatting my sdcard with this utility, i threw it back into my iconia a500 and voila! i was able to mount it from recovery (thor's 1.3.4 cwm).

How do I restore my Defy to factory settings without ANY of the things I set up on it?
I had rooted it using SuperOneClick Root and used the 2nd Init Installer to install the 2nd Init Boot Menu. I also have CWM installed by SuperOneClick Root or 2nd Init.
I want to redo everything on my device.
My device has Android BootMenu <v0.6.1> Is this part of the device originally or installed by 2nd Init?
Under it, it says DOKDO so I'm guessing its 3rd party.
The reason for this is that I'm unable to update to 2.2 because the file apparently cannot be found after downloading the update. I can't find it manually in /sdcard either. Also, CWN won't allow me to backup because it couldn't mount a certain file nor /sdcard
Should I try to format my SD CArd first?

Under Settings > Privacy you'll find the restore factory settings, but it won't unroot your phone nor uninstall Bootmenu.
As fas as I'm concerned, this could only be achieved with a full SBF, that is to say installing Motorola's firmware.

Right. eFuse only blows when you flash a "higher" sbf.
And you have to flash an sbf, because 2nd init lets you remove the custom recovery, but it doesn't remove the custom recovery entry in the boot menu.

Hi I have a similar problem as well. I upgraded to CM7 a while ago and wanted to try the CM9 by epsylon. I tried upgrading directly, but got stuck in bootloader so I reverted back to stock using RSDlite.
I've been trying to go to CM9 directly from stock using Suttaroom's guide [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756234]
Everything is fine up until I install the 2nd init. When I install the 'latest version' the bootloader does not work and just boots normally (no blue light). I figured this is because I've upgraded using cm7 so maybe I've blown an eFuse or two.
So i installed the 2nd init version for 'stable CM-based ROMS' and this time the blue light came on and I was able to get into ClockworkMod Recovery. Once there however, it is unable to read the sdcard and gives me an error message saying
"E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (no such file or directory) E:can'tmount /sdcard"
Any idea about where to go? I'm guessing because my kernel is upgraded (I think) that I need to find a 2nd init that is compatible with it?
