[Q] CWM mount partition issue recovery

I used CM7 for a while, but recently the device stopped booting it only shoes the honeybee icon and resarts.
I the following without success
1. wipe cache
2. factory reset data
3. used CM7 rom and MUIU rom to for update.zip but the update stopss with cache:recovery/log can't mount
Another trial was RSDLITE but the boot loader was shown once and later its shows Failed to initialize ....... failed to flash
the only way I feel would work is to use ADB method to replace the partitions, but need help to know how to do it (sdk and adb tools already installed), what files are required can the CM7 rom has all the img files
Please help in a simple step by step way.

oh that sounds like an interesting problem, such as mine
i never heard of a bootproblem even after wipe ... that's the problem of my defy as well ... look at my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1522842
mabe, we have the same problem? would be nice to know, so we can move on together ...
nice greetz
EDIT: i even have a full dump of the unlocked chinese defy ... so if any partition is failed, we could overwrite it with the one of that defy ...

Thanks DJ_ sunergy
However, I unable to flash the SBF also as it fails in rsdlite. may I have the custom rom with mount recovery issue. How do you use adb to push the recovery img to the phone. I am not able to do that , i dont have these files either. help in reflashin the individual partitions. maybe this will help

i'm not able to do anything on my defy but flashing full-sbf ... cause i don't have any cwm at the defy at the moment, so i have no ability to get ADB-conection ...
so .. please ... leve it at this and do not flash any full-sbf, because it will overwrite cwm and you don't have any adb such as me
with adb ability we should be able to flash your / our defy with a working rom ... that just needs trial and error
EDIT:
ehhm .. let's talk over IRC:
irc.freenode.net
#motodefy

Thnks you gave me hope, i d have the CWM working which gives error on mount recovery. But It seems I am not aware on what you suggested as
"with adb ability we should be able to flash your / our defy with a working rom"
could you help me how to use adb and where can i get the necessary image files which mentioned in almost all solutions. confused ho to flash thse boot.img, recovery.img flash partitions etc

hope is allready there, because the defy is nearly unbrickable ... totally bricking the phone is quiet impossible (if you aren't Epsylon3 ) ...

I got the clue now, the recovery running on my defy is 3e and the CWM recovery has gone missing, thats is why is not allowing unsigned roms to even try to mount. If somehow I can get CWm or some other recovery manager to run. I might survice. did you DJ_synergy try this thourgh some tools. do let me know your experience too.

Somebody please help on this issue. How do i get the ADB , recovery image work on this device.

wtf? you didn't have CWM running n your Defy?

Thankfully RSD worked
The RSDlite took me back to stock by using JORDN sbf.
Now trying CWM wiki to get custom recovery installed and will try MUIU on this.

If it's hardbrick and you are under warranty, then you will have to use your warranty and they will either replace your phone or give you a new motherboard.

so do you know the cost?? i have one more samsung galaxy note with a dangerous kernel , what i have to do ?

read the stickies in the forum. they really describe the problem in detail.

[Q]problem with instaling rom, it wont go ahead of "ideos" splash screen

hi everyone!
i got this problem when i tryed to instal a custom rom...
i rooted the phone then i instaled clockworkMOD and then i make the backup with CWM and titanium backup.
then i done the terrible mistake of coping the backup i made with CWM to my pc and then i erased it from cell,
to free some space, after coping the MIUI rom to the cell i did wipe data and reset factory seeting and wipe cashe as well as
devk cache, and then i instaled the rom zip and did reset, and it didnt pass the IDEOS splash screen.
due to this how can i restore the cell or istal other rom?
how do i access the root of the cell?
is it recuperable?
here the links i used:
guide to instalation -> http://huaweiideosx5u8800.blogspot.pt/2012/01/installing-custom-roms.html
MIUI rom -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690156
thank you and apretiated!
sorry for bad english..

If you're originally coming from Stock ROM Froyo no wonder why it did not work. You have to upgrade first to Official Gingerbread before installing this particular Custom ROM as the kernel is different.
Your solution is to get back to Stock ROM Froyo. Get it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1167882
And do the installation as described here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1011527

Go CWM -> mounts and storage -> mount USB storage and copy backup to your phone.

[Q] Can't flash any rom using CyanogenDefy?

Hello there. First of all I am a noob when it comes to flashing custom ROMs. Q&As and Guides didn't help me...
I have a Defy + MB526 , rooted ( flashed sbf because I have bl7). Stock 2.3.6
I have installed latest 2nd init using the apk.
USB debugging enabled.
The problem is that I can't flash any zip from CyanogenDefy custom recovery( Accessed using android bootmenu at reboot).
I've wiped everything before trying to flash Cm 10.2 JB. It says error 7 installation aborted every time. I did try a bunch of other versions and roms.
I created a nandroid backup using the custom recovery but I couldn't use it to recover, first because of a md5 mismatch (which I fixed) and then because of another error at the end ( some stuff couldnt be recovered). When I boot up I can't open any app, it says " Application not installed". I've tried using the 2GB card that came with the phone, same thing happens. I ended up erasing everything
What am I doing wrong? Please help me
This is ny first android phone, never installed any custom ROM before but I read its harder for the Defy though.

Come on, 60 views and no replies? Any help would be very appreciated!

Hello, thanks for your reply.
I did root my phone about 2 years ago, but good to know such an app exists.
I didn't open the archives, I just pasted it on my phone's SD card. I did try again by formatting the card inside the phone and re downloading. Same thing happens.

SD Card does work fine.
In the meantime, I tried flashing a rom again. This time I get error status 0;
After that I've successfully flashed the latest twrp, wiped, tried to install but still status 0.
I'm trying to install the MoKee rom.
EDIT:
I tried installing CM 10.2.
I get the same errors like for MoKee:
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(Status 0)
*Verifying filesystems...
*Verifying partition sizes...
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/cm-10.2-20131020-NI

[Q] LG P700 custom roms problem

Hi guys,
I have tried to install to my p700 new kitkat custom rom, but every time i install it, it says: e: cannot write to /sdcard/clockworkmod/.last install_path.....
i have tried to make clockworkmod folder and put rom and GAPPS in there, i have tried, cyanogenmod, prime mod, slimkat and some other i dont remember... i also try not to care about that message and just rebooted to system, but it stays in boot loop.
I am starting to feel this phone hates me because i cannot install anything to this phone, i ever "accidentally" was able to install 4.3 cyanogenmod, but it started to be so laggy and my wife got frustrated with it...
Any ideas?
EDIT: my cwm is latest phillz

ok, so i have tried to install many different kitkat roms to my p700 but all of those installs ends to an error: e: cannot write to /sdcard/clockworkmod/.last install_path.
If i just ignore that and reboot to system it just stays in boot loop.
