SD card not being recognized by TWRP help - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

For some reason my SD card is not being recognized within TWRP. It wont let me mount it, and when I try to click it it won't let me, just says 0 MB. I'm trying to intall RR and right now I have no OS installed so I'm not even sure how/if I can get RR on the phone memory to install RR from there and not SDcard. Anyhelp?

I don't have one. I tried sideloading with TWRP, but I'm getting code 7 error. :/

Maybe your sdcard was damaged or something, if you have and adaptor (micro SD to USB) connect to windows to see if it can be read.
Last week I return to stock an old TWRP don't recognize sdcard so try to install lastest TWRP

ADB push the ROM file to internal sd
i searched the forum and cant seem to figure out how to get adb to work when i cant boot into a OS
just setup ADB and drivers on your PC and then connect your TF while in recovery to your PC.
Also, some recoveries have the "mount sdcard as usb storage" option, but in this case you'll need an microsd card.

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] 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

Help a n00b there please :o3

Hey, look what i've done while desperately trying to install GearCM or CM12 ROM. First, i installed TWRP on my i9500 device. After that, i put the GearCM 5.1 and Gapps for 5.1 on sdcard, but i got mad really fast when i saw i can't install ANY ZIP from sdcard, then tried another CUSTOM ROMS, same problem, i wiped cache and system ( ye, system ) ) - dont ask why i did that - Anyway, now i have no system files on phone, and on my sdcard i only got that useless ZIPs.
Ah, forgot to mention, the error showing up everytime i tried to install a zip was : "Zip corrupted, Operation aborted" (something like that ).
NOTE : I can't boot normally, but i can boot in recovery (TWRP) . I can't flash another rom using odin as i can't switch usb debugging ON.
Ah, please, don't laugh too much, im pretty serious
Oh, some1 explain this to me -> I tried to install zip @ adb as i saw explained on a blog -> got stuck at recognizing phone-pc due to driver error, so i decided to try last time installing the custom ROMs( THE SAME ZIPs i got error before) from recovery -> install zips. AND GUESS WHAT, less than 20s rom is installed without any errors, i dont know if to be mad or happy. Atleast explain me what happened there.

*stare and laughing a lot*
*Just kidding, okay? :silly: *
And then;
You have corrupted zips. You need to redownload the package completely (ROM+GApps) and transfer it to your external SD card and flash. You can transfer the downloaded zips by using adb push command or remove your external SD card and plug it to anything else (read: SD card reader; of course ).

Yeah, maybe im not exactly as n00b as you think. I used exactly the same zips after(same procedure tho), and it worked smooth(i didn'teven touch them).
NOTE : I think i said i tried using adb to install zips but i got a driver error which i couldn't solve.
I've had that issue for some time especially with CM, have you tried verifying the sh1 checksum once you've loaded it onto your sd card?
Thanks.
