[Q] toggle usb mass storage on recovery? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys. I am new on this device, and I'm flashing stuff, you know, trying roms....mods, kernels....
on my sensation, with 4ext recovery, I can copy roms, zips and files on the sdcard via USB with the toggle usb mass storage....
I can't find this feature on both cwm and twrp, so I was wondering if there is this feature and I can't see it...
or maybe if 4ext touch recovery is supported on N7
thanks in advance

It's probably because it doesn't exist. You can use wifi transfer apps. Or if you have a otg cable you can use stickmount app and mount a usb stick to it.

Recovery and Mount USB Storage

I'm using TWRP and I'm unable to mount the USB storage in recovery so that my internal and external SD cards show up as removable drives in My Computer. Can anyone else do this?
I don't think so on TWRP
CWM, I believe so--
On CWM there's not an option. In TWRP there is. But it's not working. I'm thinking it's a drivers issue.

Someone on another thread showed the option and said it works, I believe
I know TWRP it does not
Just wanted to follow-up on this. I'm assuming we're still unable to mount USB storage from either CWM or TWRP recovery?
I haven't researched this as I have an iMac and use Android File Transfer
But, some info thru Google Search

I'd love to have this option working since I'm getting tired of using adb sideload option.

[Q] LG G2 D802 Won't turn on because of full wipe data

Hi, i wast trying to install a new custom rom (AOKP) on my LG G2 D802, so i rooted my phone and then installed TWRP and had a copy of custom rom zip file in my internal SD card.
But unfortunately and out of stupidity or lack of experience or something like that, i tought i have to wipe all the data on my phone. So i checked all the checkboxes in wipe data section (System, dalvik, etc) and then wiped everything and now my phone won't turn on and stucks on the LG logo.
i can go to TWRP but the Custom rom zip file is gone, and G2 does not have any external SD card slot. if it had one i could copy the zip file on the sd and flash it in TWRP. My pc does not recognize my phone and i can not copy anything on that.
I think it's worth mentioning that i backed up my phone before that (when it was on stock rom and working) and i have the back up on my pc, but how can i copy that in my phone's internal sd card?!
Can anyone plz help me? I really dont know what to do now!
Get an otg cable and use a flash drive or card reader with it.

Or just flash a kdz with lg tool. And start over
using OTG with a flash doesn not seem to work.
I'm going to use the stock rom as you said, thanks.

I can not use adb sideload or adb push because my pc does not recognize my phone as an adb device. I have installed LG drivers (LGUnitedMobileDriver_S50MAN310AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.10.1.exe) but it seems there is something wrong with my drivers. I see a warning icon in the device manager for LGD-D802 and in adb push or adb sideload i get Device not found error, do u know how can i fix that?

There is a thread somewhere tracing thou do install adb drivers for twrp, I have no idea where it is though. Basically you have to go to device manager and manually select the driver, it should be under Google and some drover under that.. Just search for the thread hahaha

I also did this. Formatted internal SD when on TWRP.
The solution was to put the phone in download mode and recovery it (flash stock rom) through LG Support Tool.
I installed adb drivers itself instead of lg drivers and then i was able to push files in my phone using adb push.
i used sideload and flashed the ROM.
Thanks for the help.

[Q] No USB mount in recovery?

Ive tried both Philz and CWM and mounting the sd card to usb doesn't seem to work in either. On the kindle I can go in and wipe every single thing on the device, mount the sd to usb, and copy over a ROM and Gapps and be on my way. What am I missing with the LG G2?
Im the only one that has usb issues in recovery?
tried twrp 2.7.0.0 and that doesnt work either.

I find it unnecessary to wipe internal sd so haven't encountered your problem, but couldn't you adb push the Rom and gapps to storage/emulated/0 and get the same result? I think usb otg can be used as well but I haven't tried that either.
Setting up adb abd getting the drivers so that each android device is actually recognized in Windows is an incredible pain in the ass.

Stuck after wipe mistake without storage

Hey there.
I accidentally wiped my whole internal storage after factory reset, and now I can't access (copy) new rom to my NS. Tried both TWRP and CWM, but both were unable to mount the storage, and therefore nothing shows up in my PC as removable device. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance :/
I think that you should be able to fastboot an older version of cwm via usb on pc, an older cwm has a working mount storage and you could flas a rom via pc

Oh, why I didn't think of that? Thanks!
But I already figured it out, managed to install new ROM with ADB sideload.
Btw why isn't the USB storage still not working in new TWRP and CWM?

Not quite sure why is it like that, but an older one should do the trick, you can try the latest 6.0.5.0 and see if it works with it

[Q] Accidentally selected 'format system' in cwm recovery on lg g2

Please Help. I accidentally formatted system in cwm recovery and i didnt even backup
Now i am stuck in LG bootanimation
But i can still access the recovery mode
i even tried mount usb storage so that i can install some rom directly from usb via otg cable but did not go well
also i cant read my sdcard. so install zip from sd card is also not possible.
So what do i do. Please help .
Please reply quickly as this my only phone and i dont have a spare phone
All you need to do is format all partitions except the internal sdcard, then flash another ROM along with gapps and super su (if using Aosp/CM). When you say the SD card can't be read do you mean in the Korean version?

Another option (computer required). This method will return your LG G2 to bone stock. This method will remove root and custom recovery; but you'll at least have your G2 useable again. Click on this link, download, and follow all instructions. (it takes a while, so just be patient.)

Get an OTG cable and load a ROM onto flash drive and pop it into OTG cable and flash the ROM.
