Transfer files from PC or ext SD from recovery? - Atrix 4G General

Transfer files from PC or ext SD from recovery?
by OS is damaged and I can only get to fastboot, android recover, etc
How can I either restore a factory rom with RSD or fastboot or is there a way to access the external SD card from recovery?
I have tried using RSD light to load
1FF-olympus-user-2.3.6-4.5.141-111212-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P012.sbf
but it fails each time
the phone is Unlocked & rooted
I tried fix permissions, still fails

I'm not familiar with fastbbot and RSD could lead to more problems if done incorrectly so I would go the external way.
Do you have a card reader/usb for your micro sd card? If so, you can take your external out of the phone and install anything you want then turn off phone and put in your card again and access recovery.

Turn the phone on while holding "power" and "volume down" until white letters show up saying fastboot on the top right corner of the screen. Then release both buttons. It will still say fastboot at this point. Click the volume down button until it cycles to android recovery. Then click power up to enter recovery. Scroll through the menu down to mounts and storage and click the power button to select it. then scroll down again and select mount USB storage. Select it and then connect your phone to your pc and transfer the files you want. This is all assuming you've installed CWM or another 3rd party recovery.

I have CWM 4.0.1.4 installed
The restore continually fails and if I use advanced to try to restore the data folder on its own it says Error while formatting data
External 2gig SD Card placed in phone:
I cant find the external SD card in the list when I try to use it for installing a new ROM
Accessing phone via USB cable & PC:
when I go to mounts & storage / mount USB
it says,
USB Mass Storage Device
Leaving this menu unmount
your SD card from your PC
Unmount
**** Go Back ****
I connect the phone to the PC at this point and it does nothing, no beebs nothing...
I tried 2 different cables
it did when before...

HELP!!! screwed up my MyTouch 3G

I have the MyTouch 3G with the Cyanogen Recover 1.4.
I had the latest CyanogenMod 4.2.7 with no problems. I tried applying the Enoch theme 1.4.7 and it put my phone in a boot loop. I tried factory wiping. I don't have access to any of the cyanogenmod zip files on my SD card because the Cyanogen Updater doesn't put it on the root directory of the SD.
So is there a way to fix this? Get back to any build of the phone to work? Can I access the SD card if I connect it via USB to my PC? PLEASE HELP!!!!
dannyfal!
i don t know if I undersoot you fully.BUT>>>> sometimes the SD card plays crazy,or get dammaged easy.In case you see the files on a computer but your phone is unable to read them is no big problem.If your phone is in bootloader mode and stucked there,it is a bit bigger problem.Have you ever applyed the hard reset ???It helps a lot.After that the SD card recognized by the phone as memory card2.So the phone is looking for the simple name SD MMEMORY.Or sd card.This is just matter of time.You give a name ending sd crad.bat and you can erase this bad sector data.In this case you might loose the program and your important data with it.BUT>>> you save sd card,and other files on it.
If you can t make it work coz your phone is in boot loader modus,than you need professional help.And a new rom update.
helos * hopr helped somehow*

You can enable usb mode in Cyanogen's recovery image by connecting the usb cable, dropping in to the console and typing (without quotes) "ums_enable" move your ROM and when you're done "ums_disable"
then "reboot recovery" and reflash.
If you don't have a computer you can use the console to my the files.
mount /sdcard <- Mounts the fat32 partition
ls <- See what files/folders are in the current directory
cd nameoffolder < change directory
then once you're in the folder where the ROMs are stored (cm-update, I believe) you can either move or copy them to the root.
use 'ls' again to find the filenanme of the ROM you want to copy/move..
cp name-of-rom.zip /sdcard <- to copy the ROM to the root, or use 'mv' to move the file.
EDIT: I am an idiot. You're on a MyTouch so you can't use the console in recovery. In that case connect your phone to your computer (which has the sdk setup with drivers) and type the commands I stated about after 'adb shell'

Frp7yd on HTC Hero

finally rooted my phone, BUT, it wont read the SD card, nor when i hook it up to my pc i can'y get anything to come up, i'm using Windows 7 x86, plz plz help
Android Version 1.1.1
Baseband 63.18.55.06PH_6.35.15.11
Kernel
2.6.29-ninpo
[email protected] #14
Mod Version
Froyd-1.1.1-Hero
and also launcher pro wont uninstall =[
Build Number
FrpydVillain1.1.1
and also my contacts won't update with their face beeok, except one... please help =[
1. (SD Card) try going into the settings and formatting it then remount it.
2. (Launcher Pro) Launcher Pro won't installed in the normal fashion because its installed the the system folder. You can get rid of it via ADB although Froyd doesn't have any other launcher installed so you will want to install another one before hand. (and if you install a new one you might as well just swap over to it rather than un-installing
Wez.
i tried to remount, and it wont even read it, when i hook it up to my pc nothing happens. it doesn't even read the new hardware or give me the option to just charge... =/
Ideally, i would recommend you update to latest Froyd 1.2.1, but I'm not sure of what the issue here is...
I'd suggest backing everything on SD to your PC via a card reader, then repartitioning it using recovery, and trying that.
ok, i can boot into carebear, what should i do next? a whole new root? and is Froyo the best ROM to use?
the thing is, i cant get into debugging,i can get into the carebear, but idk what to do from there -.-;
I have the same problem !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When you attach it to your PC do you mount the sd card? If you drag down the notification bar when it is connected and select "usb connected" then choose "Turn on USB storage". This will mount the SD card.
there is no icon no mount i used the widget no luck

It isn't an icon to mount it. What widget are you talking about?
You simply drag down the notification bar > press "usb connected" > press "turn on usb storage"

You need to:
1. Download the latest version from http://www.villainrom.co.uk/releases/FroydVillain1.2.1/download.php
2. You simply drag down the notification bar > press "usb connected" > press "turn on usb storage" - alternatively plug the sd-card into an sd reader and follow the rest
3. Open the SD Card folder on your computer.
4. Copy the rom from your computer to your SD Card, do NOT change it, extract the files or put it in any folders
5. Unplug your phone and turn it off (put the sd card in now if you used the reader)
6. Turn the phone on by holding down Home and Power till you get to the custom recovery screen.
7. Select Wipe from the menu, then select:
Wipe data/factory Reset
Wipe Dalvik-cache
Wipe SD:ext partition
Press back button
Select Flash Zip from SD Card
Select the file
Click Confirm
N.B. Ignore any "errors", they are normal and usually mean you're not using that feature.
8. Once it is done, select Reboot and you will boot into the OS
in m,y phone it wont even read that there is an SD card -.-; and when i hook it to pc, it still shows none, i KNOW it works, its a braand new PNY 4 Gb...
As I said - hook it up to a sd card reader, place the files on the card and then boot into recovery with the sd card in and you should be able to flash from there.
it boots into carebear mode and doeskin recognize th3e flash name of the update.zip on my flash
nothing happens, it just charges when i hook it up to the pc, no notifications...

[Q] MAGLDR Help!!

I have a tmobile htc hd2. (My goal is to get ultimate droid on here)
I unlocked it today
I flashed hardspl using hardspl4 to 2.08.hspl
I then put MAGLDR 1.13 on the phone
NOW, my phone just boots into MAGLDR. I can't get pass it
I know, I'm terrible, I get it.
What should i do? Help!?
Magldr is waiting for the next step, which is likely to be ..
Choose USB flasher and flash cwm, then back into magldr, option 8 ad recovery, and flash a zip rom from SD card
It is " just sitting there" because there is no rom to load.
Okay thanks for the quick response!
Another thing though...my sd card is not being recognized by my cpu. I have to use the sd card in my phone to connect to my computer, I don't have an adapter.
EDIT: *CWM now flashed* SD card problem still exists
"NAND KERNEL OPEN FAILED"
Need a solution for my SD card!!
any help would be greatly appreciated!

Use MAGLDR or CWM to get access to your SD card click the guide in my sig for full details on it.
you havent explained what problem you get with the sd card, , , ,
boot into magldr, then 8 - ad recovery - then mounts and storage, mount USB storage, connect usb cable. if nothing happens (dont worry about not seeing anything happen on the phone, it wont) then open wmdc (or activesync on older OS) and click settings, connection settings, and UNTICK allow usb connections and try again. It 'should' show up as a removeable drive in mycomputer.

My sd card just isn't showing up? When I plug in my phone and it boots in MAGDLR, I can't access my SD card. Like there's nothing there.
*Your suggestion worked perfectly. Thank you very much!*
"boot into magldr, then 8 - ad recovery - then mounts and storage, mount USB storage, connect usb cable"
Is this a problem? ""NAND KERNEL OPEN FAILED""
No, it failed because there is no rom yet.
Just finished the Ultimate Droid flash!! Works perfectly!! Thanks to all that posted!
FIXED! nevermind!

USB Mass Storage mode

ok i runing Oxygen and everithing is just fine,but i have one smaal problem: i can't use USB Mass storage mode.
Lets say the phone is turned absolutley off , when i turn it on and try to get in recovery mode the computer detects it and it shows it like CD Drive(empty), ok i tried some of the options of recovery- i mount/unmount, format , fix .. etc. still appear like CD Drive.
Ok i turned on the phone, and then i choose the android option to use the phone like USB flash drive, again it appeared like CD Drive , wich automaticly means only read but not write on memory card, and now every time i have to remove the card from the phone put it in SD card reader and upload on it some music, photos etc ...
Anyone with a solution?
1) First try another sd-card to see if the sd-card has a problem.
2) Either your ROM has a problem or it is your computer. Please try it again with another computer just to make sure that yours is not the cause for this behaviour.
3) If the problem persists try flashing your ROM again, but in recovery mode: Choose Wipe Data /Factory Reset, then go back to main menu. Choose Wipe Cache Partition, then go back to main menu. Go to Advanced and choose Wipe Dalvik Cache, then go back to main menu. This will delete all the data on the phone and make sure the ROM is installed properly.
Oxygen ROM do not allow to use Internal memory in usb mode, but sd card works 100% tested.
the worst thing for me is that, when im in recovery again appear like cd drive, so the phone for the computer from the begining is cd drive.
when i go in device manager it shows that HSUSB driver is not installed properly is it the same for you guys?
it only shows that my device is android usb device, but not mass stotage
THE same problem

The god dam windows and drivers was the problem. Actualy i have a huawei USB modem for internet, and the drivers which i used for the modem messed with the drivers for the phone. The solution was to remove the USB Modem drivers and then reinstall them again and this time the computer discover the phone like mass storage.

hi guys I accidentally wiped data from twrp while flashing diamond rom, now my device wont (clearly boot) and i cannot push any file in the internal storage of the phone via usb, how can i install any kind of rom now?should i use odin or adb sideload?
Remove sd card
Download rom and copy to sd card
Then put card in phone and install
If u need other recovery to flash or baseband
Download and copy that too
Or download firmware from sammobile and flash with odin
