Help! CWM not installed properly?! Bricked devices? - Thinkpad Tablet General

Hi folks,
5 day ago i rootet my tablet 16GB WE and installed Koshu`s CWM step by step like discribed in his threat [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831161]. At the end there was an error message..., i was too quick and made an reboot bevor i could read it.
But i tested if i rooted the tablet succesfully and the superuser-app said that i am root now....
Then i installed the v.0.8.1 Version and everything was fine!
a few days later i got reboots during normal use.
Now i cant boot in the OS, there are bootloops the hole time.
I think that i have not installed the CWM correct...
Any ways to check this with adb commands or something else?
It would be great if someone could help me....
Sorry for my bad english!

You can still boot into CWM? Well you could make a backup of the installed recovery (like shown in the CWM thread) and check if the md5sums are equal to the downloaded image. Btw. linebreaks in the logcat would really help reading it

yes i can Boot into CWM, but i cant restore my backup. I tried to install cm10 clean again but after rebooting CWM and booting the OS Android is updating the apps. But i did a full wipe bevor.Thats why i think that the CWM is not in an good state.
i am in the road and maybe i can later check the md5sum.
I can attach an picture from the CWM during trying formating and fixing permissions.
thank you!

Problem solved

I linked a zip file in the CM10 Thread that formats the data partition: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846044
You can find it in the "addition steps" section. Beware that it will delete all your personal data including the internal sd-card (also nandroid backups if you have stored them on the internal sdcard). So make sure you have EXTERNAL backups if you want to keep some of the data.

I have nearly the same problem.
I rooted my TPT a few weeks ago, today I was reading about Cyanogen and decided to install CWM. After some issues with the adb drivers, I managed to install the clockwork recovery.
Now I followed the steps from the cm-thread. I did a nandroid backup and wiped my tablet. After that, I flashed CM10. But all I get is the CyanogenMod logo spinning around.
I tried to go back to my nandroid backup, but it seems broken somehow.
I also tried several several CM-versions and downloaded them several times, without success. But I realised, that the installation procedure of CM was very quick, too quick maybe? Could it be that my clockworkmod isn't installed correctly, because the installation of CM and the nandroid backup won't work.
I hope you guys can help me out. Because I only could find nandroid backups for ROW and US version. I also don´t have adb access anymore.

But how can formatting my data partition help? You mean after a format, the installation of cm would work?
And how do I use the .zip, just flashing with cwm?

You have to download the formatdata.zip on your external sd-card.
After that you can boot in the recovery and flash this .please dont juse the cwm! Do you know how to boot into the recovery?
Power on and during that you should drop-down the volume + key a few seconds.
This helped me and others.

I was thinking about 2 possible solutions right now.
1. get another nandroid backup (Problem didnt see any for the 16gb WE version)
2. try no reflash another CWM version or maybe ventana cwm and try again to flash Cyanogen (don't know if its possible to just flash another recovery as an image with the current working recovery)
So what do you guys think?

You were running ICS before flashing to CM, right?

Problem solved. CM is running. Thanks for your help, exspecialy to you tpauli.
The formatdata.zip was the key
One last question. I am using the folio keyboard with an european layout (qwertz), but with Cyanogen it is us layout (qwerty). How can I change this?

[Q] Constant crashing/rebooting on CM10 TPT US?

I used this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32540070&postcount=15
I went from stock 4.0.3 to Koshu's CM10 0.8.1
I haven't installed or done anything after flashing, I just left the tablet on. I noticed that it crashes randomly/reboots.
I read that there are crashlogs in /proc/ but I don't even have that folder.
What can I do other than return to stock?
EDIT: I found that this thread is the same issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1964655 and going into advanced settings and keeping wifi on at all times is a half solution. It appears to be an issue in Koshu's CM10 but I can't post about it in his thread.

Koshu's ROM is working well for most people but is still in beta so abnormal behaviours are to be expected.
You can get logs with logcat and dmesg. There are threads on xda and Google about how to use them. Logcat for example can be invoked with apps on Play, adb or via a terminal.
It's up to you whether you can live with the crashes or not. Koshu is actively developing but has other priorities so we'll have to be patient for further bug-squashes. Especially since afaik there aren't any other third-party TPT ICS ROMs.
Stuck in bootloop. CWM still available. Can't establish adb connection.

I had success following the same process: US 32GB wifi only Stock ICS -> DebugfsRoot -> install CWM -> flash CM10.0.8.1
JB was smooth and performance was great. Didn't mind the restarts if I left it idle for too long.
After a few days my TPT entered a bootloop and I have been stuck for a few days now. I can get to CWM recovery boot and re-flashed the CM10 ROM but still got the bootloop [boot hangs at CyanogenMod blue wheel screen]. I then flashed back to my rooted ICS backup but it hangs and reboots at the fancy Lenovo screen.
When I try to restore from my ICS backup, CWM gives an error that /data failed to restore properly. Someone posted with this same issue and they got passed it by formatting /data with NVFLASH. I tried suggestions from this Guide: How to Recover from a bootloop but I can't get an adb connection established.
Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions to get passed this bootloop issue? Thanks in advance for your help.

I found Koshu's post to wipe/format the data partition. Put format-data.zip on the external sd card.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

[Q] cyanogenmod

Please help me...
1. I wanted flash the new CM 10.2 on my LG G2 D802, I downloaded the mod, google apps and copied them to the internal memory of the phone, 2. then I booted into the recovery mod by the automated method(twrp), wiped the data and reset my device and when I tried to flash the rom and google apps, I couldn't find them.
3. I repeated step 1 and this time I didn't reset or wipe the data because I thought I might lose the files again. Then I queued up the rom and apps and flashed them and I rebooted the device.
5. But what I see is a round loading thing inside which CyanogenMod is written for about an hour now.
I am relatively new to these things, please help me.
What should I do now???
now when I try to turn the phone off, it starts automatically and I see the Cyanogenmod loading screen again.
Please Help

The thing I did two times is that I didn't wipe and factory reset in the recovery mod and then the CM rom would stay in loading. If I would wipe the phone, the CyanogenMod would also get deleted.
So how do I wipe and reset the phone and at the same time also keep the ROM file. I see many others installing and I wonder how they do it. I have been searching on the internet for the last two days for this, please help me:crying:
Put them to phone internal storage (sdcard) and then on recoveru wipe, advanced wipe, tick alk except internal storage and efs and recovery. Then ur good to go for clean install.

And make sure your recovery is new(ish). You need version 2.6.3.2, if you are using an old version of TWRP that could be giving you problems
There no option of advanced wipe option in CWM recovery

You should be running CM in no time. good luck. Remember to backup stock rom. Much more convenient if you want to go back.
Edit: I have my knowledge from reading this forum. I haven't done this myself yet. Planning on testing CM tomorrow.

[Q] uninstalling slimkat (cm11)

Hi guys, need some help here. I'm sure this has been asked before but i just couldn't find any
Installed slimkat 20140406-0134 rom (cm11) last night and it's basically working. But I'm still not feeling comfortable using it as there's still bugs around. So thought of going back to cm7.2 for now. But for the life of me couldn't figure out how to get to the tool section so I can re-partition it back to ext3!!!
All I could get in to is twrp recovery and that's it. how do I even get into the bootmenu section where I can choose recovery, cpu settings, tools, etc? There's no red Moto logo with blue LED at boot up anymore
Is there any uninstall instruction somewhere, or perhaps someone should write one?
44 viewers but no reply
any idea if i can install some sort of apps to achieve the same end? like a wipe app to re-partition it to ext3, and then an older recovery to install cm7 rom, or restore my cm7 backup?
don't really want to just try and see what will happens. also trying to avoid flashing sbf and start from scratch.....
edit: will aromawiper work? reboot to twrp recovery 2.6.3.0, aromawipe to ext3 and then flash cm7.2 rom straight after? expert opinion and advice please.
edit 2: oh well, tried it and didn't work. might be because i didn't install an older, compatible recovery before i rebooted. stuck at red moto logo and had to flash sbf and start all over again......
case closed...........

you can flash cm10 to get the boot menu to format to ext3 then flash to cm7.2.
Thats what i did when i tested cm11.
Or use Aroma wiper to format to ext3 and flash CM7.2.

that's exactly what i did but didn't work. aromawiper seems to have worked properly but twrp 2.6.3.0 keep saying "no os installed" after i installed the gb rom and tried to reboot. tried maniac's cm7.2 and an older wiui gingerbread rom. i thought it might be a hickup and rebooted anyway and that was it.
don't know what went wrong there. has anyone actually tried this method before and got it to work?
edit: imho twrp is not worth it. it rebooted 8-10 times on me after installing cm11 and tried to get back into recovery to flash gapps. also other problems like blank backup files and my failures to install rom problem. they should have stuck to cwm until the problems are fixed.
edit 2: and i think removing bootmenu is not a good idea. more steps to take if you want to go back to cm7.2.

Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
So i kinda figured it out.
well, I sort of did something(i think) and its now working fine... I went to twrp.. did a factory reset. Then went for advance wipe and wiped system cache and dalvik. Then followed the same procedure. Bootloader-->radio-->Rom-->Kernel. It worked just fine. The first boot took some 15 minutes.
does the internal storage work for you? it works only on twrp for me :/
i can't see anything in file explorer and canìt restore from twrp :/ that's a big problem guys.
If you can not see your old nandroid backups
After rooting If you can not see your old nandroid backups
Via file explorers try to enable usb debuging from
dev. opt. if not worked (Recovires or SuperSU issue)
But you can see and restore your old or new backups via recovery (TWRP tested)
New recoveries and superSU may fix this issues.

Recommended Recovery is TWRP 2.8.1.0

I also got this message
Code:
unmount of /system failed: no such volume
followed by
Code:
unmount of /data failed: no such volume
a few minutes later. The process finished a few minutes later without any more output but I'm booting now after wiping the cache and everything seems fine.

I had the this same problem. After installing everything, I let it sit for 20 minutes and it finally showed the Android logo. After that it was stuck on a black screen. I wiped everything and repeated the install procedure again, minus the kernal, and got the same "unmount of /system failed: no such volume" while flashing the rom zip. It booted after a while and everything works except my storage is FUKT. I cant see any of my pictures, music, etc, and the only thing I see via PC is the DCIM folder which is empty. Not cool

Nothing wrong with my storage. I installed the bootloader, radio, and rom on top of my existing 4.4.4 rom by sideloading in CWM. Wiped caches and rebooted to make sure everything was working, then back to CWM to sideload the kernel. I haven't rooted yet.

Did you have the "unmount of /system failed: no such volume" while flashing the rom zip?

Same error after using ADB to flash v2.8.1.0 TWRP, full wipe, and reinstall of everything in the correct procedure. My storage is still not working.

I always enable usb debugging, didn't help. And as far as the file transfer, it won't let me. I can only access it while in TWRP. All my files are there, its just android can't see them, and wont show under windows either. Not sure what the issue is there, I've tried everything I know of. I'll just flash CM12 that I was using before. Let me know if you figure out this problem, as I'm curious as to what is causing it (and I'm not the only one having it).

try re flash everything but not autoroot using..[/QUOTE]
All of this was without autoroot. Don't worry about it man, I just installed my old rom. For some reason this ROM doesn't like me and spupuz's phone. Thanks for trying to help me, I appreciate your time. Let me know if someone else has the issue and you figure it out, I'm very curious as to what it might be.

I flashed this ROM this morning, and I initially had the weird can't unmount /system error. I rewiped, using twrp to ensure that /system was wiped too. Install went fine. I have a weird glitch or something on my recent apps list, though. I attached a picture. Anyone know what this is? It doesn't seem to be causing any functional problem, but it looks bad.
Edit: I cleared the cache for google now launcher, and restarted recovery and wiped my cache partition and the error went away.
