I Connect my mobile to PC through USB cable (I have kept USB debugging on).
I Copy the zip file to external memory
I Disconnect my phone from PC.
I get into the recovery mode by pressing & holding volume up + power button + home button simultaneously until I get into recovery mode.
Then I select update from SD card and I find the error "E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory) E:Can't mount /sdcard"

Yes,i think we already know the problem.once u get into CWM choose INSTALL ZIP FROM SD not update from sd.whenever u flash some update,custom rom,kernel with cwm select the INSTALL ZIP FROM SD and select the file(zip) u want to flash and u will see that everything works fine and much better if u follow correctly the devs guide.

Help! I think I bricked my S4!

So I was going to flash a new ROM, so I booted philz recovery and did a clean wipe to install new ROM. Then I realized that I forgot to download the ROM first! So now I can't do anything with the phone! I tried to flash stock through Odin but it says "there is no PIT partition" I Googled about it and found that I had to flash the PIT file with the firmware and check re-partition. I did all that and it still doesn't work :crying:
What is there to do now? I tried everything. Pls help

just buy a 4GB one from the market it is cheap and will be enough just in case or you can get 8GB one and store a NAND backup on it you never know

You can push the rom that you will flash using adb. Same thing happened to me last time. Relax and use adb

Sounds similar to what I did to mine, I tried to flash through Odin and I got the PIT error.
People say you need to flash the PIT file with the Rom, but when I did it like that, it never worked. I just kept on getting the PIT error. How I got it to work was just select the PIT file on it's own, don't flash the firmware with it, click Re-Partition from within Odin and start. It'll say something along the lines of Success - Rebooting, then you need to get back into Download mode. From there, just flash the stock firmware and you'll be good to go.
It might not work for everyone, but that's how I managed to get mine back from being soft bricked.

You need to install the drivers first. This is the guide I used http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...uoGICw&usg=AFQjCNHqh3z8LRrjALHzds5NP7v_WKctLw Hope this helps

Boot into recovery (Philz, right?), go to Mounts and Storage, select Mount USB Storage, connect phone to PC, paste rom into SD and done. You're ready to flash again.

[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.

Corrupt filesystem - only able to boot from external SD card

So I have a Samsung Galaxy J5 SM-J500F which suddenly refused to boot in any way (normal, recovery, download). I booted TWRP from external SD card but it shows Internal Storage (0 MB). Can't mount or do anything. Is there something to do or is it a hardware issue?

In Odin try to flash different versions of the stock firmware its the only way to restore it.

I can't. Everything that I am flashing through Odin goes into the external SD card. For the example, tried to flash TWRP and it flashed onto the external SD card. And I cannot go into download mode without the external SD card. Trying to remove it before pressing volume up to confirm makes Odin say no PIT file found and when I flash the PIT it gives error.

The only way to restore the phone is by flashing stock firmware in odin.
Twrp and everything else will go to the SD card only the stock firmware will flash to the phone.
Enter download mode WITH the SD card in and go through the steps on Odin to flash stock firmware and absolutely nothing else, no twrp, no custom firmware it has to be 100% pure stock rom or it will flash to the SD card and not internal storage.
Stock firmware contains the necessary PIT files and everything so don't try flashing different PIT files.
This is the only method to restore the device

I understand, but for example if I have TWRP on SD card then I flash via Odin, it hangs at system.img.ext4 (left it over 15 hours). Before system it flashes recovery so I disconnected after 15 hours just to find out the SD card had the stock recovery.

Dont put twrp on the SD card.
Boot into download and just flash stock.
Once the device is restored do what you want and install twrp and whatever you want but don't do it at the start.
You wont be able to restore unless everything is stock

You're sure its not hardware related?
The only thing I can think of now is to try with different versions of the stock rom (different country firmware)
Like you came this far we must be able to fix it.
Im going to do a bit of reading about the issue now and see if there is anything you can try

I don't know. This is the story of how it got bricked:
Powered it on some days ago and it showed the Samsung logo with the "odin mode" text in the top-left corner. I thought I accidentally entered download mode so I held down volume down+power until the screen turned black. And after that it didn't boot at all until I managed to make this bootable SD card.
What I find strange is that Odin keeps flashing on my SD card instead of the internal storage. If I enter download mode then remove the SD card and try to flash via Odin it complains that no PIT partition was found. If I have TWRP installed on the SD card, download mode says "CURRENT BINARY: Custom" but as soon as I try to flash via Odin the official recovery.img (it flashes before it hangs at system.img.ext4) and restart the phone it says "CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official". Also if I power it on from the SD card normally or in recovery it shows the blue screen that wants me to connect to Smart Switch but the app does not recognize the phone.
Another thing is that if I reboot into download mode with the SD card but only press power up to confirm after I remove the SD card the first thing to show in the top-left corner is "ddi: mmc_read_failed" and if I try to flash with Odin, Odin says no PIT partition found and the phone shows in the top-left corner the last line as "ODIN : flash read failure".
If I power it on without the SD card it doesn't do anything, not even vibrate.

Navigate to Wipe > Advance Wipe > Data, and choose Repair or Change File System.Press Repair File System to see if this fixes the issue. If not, continue.Press Change File System, choose Ext2, and swipe to confirm.Now switch back to Ext4 and swipe to confirm.Go back to TWRP main menu, then the Mount menu, and check if your partitions can be mounted now.
These actions r possible?
