I'm having trouble with my nexus7. When booting, it shows the android and a START. The only thing it lets me to is RESTART BOOTLOADER.
START or RECOVERY gives a message BOOTING FAILED.
Cannot re flash the stock recovery (doesn't work in adb, nexus7 toolkit)
I can flash a temp recovery and they tell me that nothing will mount. sdcard, system, cache, nothing. They also say INTERNAL SPACE 0MB.
I was changing kernels and it bootlooped. Then trying to restore in recovery, the whole internet storage has gone missing.
Is there any way to remount the storage? Maybe it's dead... I have a spare parts nexus 7.. is there any way to take the storage out and place it in this one?
Thank you. ahhh.

My nexus s is going through some random bootloop. It won't boot to startup, but it'll only boot to the bootloader/recovery. So, i can't really put anything in my internal memory and flash it. can anyone help me please?

any idea how you got in this state? That might help find the least painful way out of it.
Anyways, if you can get into the bootloader, then you should be able to flash or boot to Clockwork Recovery with the fastboot commands.
Once in Clockwork, you should be okay. ADB is active in Clockwork, so you can push things to the phone that way.
To put something on the sdcard, from within clockwork, go to the mounts menu, then mount the sdcard.
After that adb push whatever it is you want to flash to the sdcard.
I'm guessing you don't have your own nandroid tucked away, but there's a stock GRH78 one in the Development section.
If you did some odd tweak or something, you could possibly just adb commands to undo it. Dalvik and cache wipes wouldn't be a bad idea either.
when i try wiping Dalvik Cache i get this "E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (invalid argument) and also when i try to mount USB storage it doesnt really mount it just takes me back to the recovery page D:. <- thus if i can't mount usb storage i can't really push things in my phone. i think i might've bricked my phone. ;/
If you have an unlocked bootloader you can use this.

This should return you to stock as if nothing ever happened.
Thanks so much. It works now! Woot happy man.
What did you end up doing?

You can mount usb from recovery and just copy and paste whatever you want to your phone.
I was flashing a new ROM and accidentally ticked the option to wipe "Internal Storage." Now, I cannot access any files because they have obviously been deleted. I am stuck in TWRP with nothing to flash and no OS installed. Is there some way I can fix this?

Unroot your phone to factory image then root again.
OR flash clockmod revoir to access storage (haven't tried b4 thou)
Reboot into the boot loader (Hold down power and volume down) and and then fast boot the factory image.
Google "how to restore nexus 4 to stock, fast boot"

Just ADB Push your files connecting your phone to the PC while TWRP is on.
i also want to wipe internal storage using twrp in my nexus 5. i have my rom in flash drive. can i flash the rom that I have in my flash drive if I mount it after I wiped internal storage?
Current TWRPs support MTP, all you need to do is wipe the storage and plug your phone into the PC. Just make sure that MTP is checked in the "mount" menu of TWRP. You can then proceed to put the ROM's zip onto the internal storage and flash like you normally would.
I did the exact same method as mentioned in this [site](https://samarv-121.github.io/twrp-3.2.3-RMX1801/), but TWRP isn't reading the microSD slot. It gives 0 MB as the size of microSD and I can't select it. Also, it seems to me that TWRP starts from the beginning every time I boot to recovery as I'm getting the 'Allow modifications to system partition' in every boot. I tried wiping the data twice, which removed the internal storage data encryption, but when I booted back to TWRP, it showed it as 0 MB. I've also flashed TWRP several times, but to no avail. One thing that I noticed was that when I flashed TWRP the first time, it showed success, but when booting to recovery, it had stock recovery. I flashed TWRP again and that issue was fixed.
My microSD is FAT32 format, and its contents aren't encrypted. I'm able to read the contents of it on PC and in my phone, but not in recovery. However, when in TWRP, it shows that my SD card is vfat format. I can't wipe it, repair it or change the filetype, as its showing an error.
Can someone please help me out? I'll provide whatever resources are needed. But please tell a detailed way on how to get them. Thank you in advance!
So I successfully Flashed TWRP on my Galaxy Tab A SMT580. Two issues I'm experiencing tho....
1.) TWRP is unable to mount my internal storage which shows as 0MB. Thus I obviously have no ROM I can boot into. It reads and mounts my SD card and the correct size shows up. Unfortunately I have nothing on my SD card and I can't get ADB Sideload to work.
2.) Which brings me to my next issue whenever I do attempt to boot it says failure to verify. Which is fixed by flashing that DM-Verity zip file. But I can't since it's not on my SD card and, ADB Sideload won't work.
Any thoughts on how to fix these two issues.
I feel stupid having forgotten to put the file on my SD Card prior to flashing TWRP

By default, the data partition on the T580 is encrypted. In order to install a custom ROM, you must first format that partition. Click wipe then format data, type in "yes" and when it finishes, reboot to recovery. Your internal storage should no longer show 0mb.
ok that worked, my internal storage is now mounted, but my SD Card is not. Now I just need to figure out how to get the custom ROM files and the DM Verity file onto my internal storage.
how can I just flash the tablet back to stock recovery and ROM
so I got everything working, I didn't need to flash a rom, it booted to the stock rom, ony issue that remains, is for some reason the WIFI will no longer turn on. When I tap on it in settings to turn it on, it just says its turning on, but never actually turns on. Just hangs there. I can't figure out what to do
anyone ? I really need to get this fixed...should I reflash the stock rom using ODIN, maybe a fresh install will fix it ?
Also, when I plug my tablet into the laptop, it says connected device cannot access data, and the tablet doesn't show up on the laptop, so I have no way to transfer files or anything. It does show up on ADB, I thought about trying to push the files that way, but not sure if thats possible, been a long time since I used ADB.
Hi Guys,
It's all in the title really, I have tried rolling back from the latest MIUI stable rom 20.1.9_v11-10 to my previously run V11.0.2.0 , this got my phone (mi9t) stuck in a bootloop. After going into recovery mode, I have realized the internal storage folders are all messed up, with the folders names showing in an odd combination of number and letters (Something like: 9KJJGDKJ).
The phone still mounts via USB to the laptop, by I'm unable to transfer any files to the internal storage. And as such, I'm currently unable to flash it with a ROM.
I'd appreciate any advice on this, hopefully one that would also help me salvage the files and data I have on my internal storage.

For backup have you tried running adb command "adb pull /sdcard _(here specify any location in your pc such as C:\x\) from CMD when in TWRP? And for flashing ROM you can use "adb push (ROM zip location and destination such as C:\x\anyrom.zip /sdcard/)" and flash ROM .zip from your sdcard root in TWRP AFTER factory reset and wipe system from TWRP. Remember factory reset will erase your internal storage. Hope it helps. Good luck.

Well, it looks like you phone is encrypted and the only way is to format data, and did you format data before doing the downgrade?
Do you have TWRP?
You need to format data, internal memory encrypted.
Boot to TWRP
Format DATA
Reboot to TWRP
Transfer xiaomi.eu rom and flash
Reboot

I would try another recovery, sounds like something is corrupt with the twrp version. Have you tried Orangefox?
I had the same problem. Only thing that works is formatting data. A different twrp wont work. I tried 3 different versions all the same.
Thanks guys, already formatted my sd card yesterday and then I was able to re-flash the Android Q update.
My data is lost tho. Thank you all for your input here.
