Nexus 6 unable to mount e drive - marshmallow

Hi all,

I updated my N6 to Marshmallow last week and rooted using the NRT and when I try to change the kernel it gives me the following error in recovery:
Finding update package...
I:Update location: /sdcard/ElementalX/ElementalX-N6-3.04-express.zip
Opening update package...
E:unknown volume for path [/sdcard/ElementalX/ElementalX-N6-3.04.zip]
sysutil: Unable to open '/sdcard/ElementalX/ElementalX-N6-3.04-express.zip':No such file or directory
E:Failed to map file
Installation aborted.

I am unable to mount sd card from recovery, can anyone help resolve this issue/point me in the right direction?

Ville c2 bricked? unable to mount SD card, no recovery

Hi guys, so a while ago I flashed Venom Rom to my one s c2.
In the recent weeks I noticed, that the memory was getting more and more full. But I couldn't find the files responsible for that.
So I did a factory reset, which didn't help. So I tried to wipe the storage in TWRP 2.6.3.0. . Furthermore I did a "total wipe" so I checked every option in the wipe section.
After that, I couldn't boot the phone, because there seemed to be no OS installed. So i tried to flash the ROM which I loaded onto the phones storage but it was gone.
When I tried to transfer a ROM to the phone's storage it said "unable to mount sdcard". So I couldn't transfer any files to my phone.
After hours of reading through various threads, I tried to get it back to stock by running a RUU.
Unfortunately I couldnt find the exact one for my device. This is what fastboot displays when i type in "fastboot getvar all":

version: 0.5
version-bootloader: 3.01.0000
version-baseband: 16.15.20.29_M
version-cpld: None
version-microp: None
version-main:
version-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON
serialno: SH25YW404475
imei: 352762055439276
meid:
product: villec2
platform: HBOOT-8260
modelid: PJ4020000
cidnum: HTC__102
battery-status: good
battery-voltage: 4014mV
partition-layout: Generic
security: on
build-mode: SHIP
boot-mode: FASTBOOT
commitno-bootloader: 9006d003
hbootpreupdate: 11
gencheckpt: 0

So I tried these ones (tried running as administrator as well):
RUU_VILLEC2_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.09.401.101_Radio _16.11.20.02U_16.05.20.11_M2_release_261381_signed
and
RUU_VILLEC2_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.11.401.101_Radio _16.12.20.02U_16.05.20.16_M2_release_261661_signed


But they didnt work out. It always displays "error 155" and on the phone's display it says "older hboot version" .
And now I can't even access the recovery anymore... And because I tried to run a RUU I relocked my bootloader....
I really can't find a RUU with the correct Radio and don't know how to identify the hboot version of the RUU.
I already tried to flash a recovery again via fastboot, but it didn't work as well :

C:\*****\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery twrpvillec2.img
sending 'recovery' (6420 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.291s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 2.079s

I'm really lost guys, I hope I didn't hardbrick my phone.
If anyone has any suggestions, please help.

Thanks!

N900a Failed to Mount EFS

I woke up today and my Note 3 was dead. I assumed the battery died as that is in all likelihood what happened. I plugged my phone into the charger and attempted to turn it on. It stayed on the Samsung logo for several minutes. I then booted it into recovery mode, and noticed at the bottom, E: Failed to mount /efs (invalid argument). I attempted a cache wipe and at first it said failed to mount /cache, however another attempt and it completed without error. I then tried a reboot with the same problem. Next I tried a system/data wipe and got the same problem (failed to mount efs).

So, I used a 4 part Odin flash to 5.0 Lollipop OEM. This succeeded and upon reboot the phone got as far as the AT&T logo then hung again. Once in recovery I noticed the same E: Failed to mount /efs (invalid argument). I have searched on this and many other forums attempting to resolve this issue without success. I've been at this nonstop for 12 hours now. I know of a way to use adb to create a generic EFS folder, the problem is the phone is 100% stock, including no developer options(adb), custom recovery, etc. Not even busybox.

Anyone with any info on how I can unbrick this phone would greatly appreciated. Or even how I can use Odin to install safestrap w/ root thereby giving me the ability to mount the system with TWRP and send adb commands that way. To clarify, I have access to nothing but the stock recovery and download mode without ADB active on the phone. Thanks for your time.

Unable to mount - problems with TWRP during back up

I have a G900F with the stock rom on it which is running poorly and want to install the Cymogened 12.1 rom.

I have successfully managed to root my phone and install TWRP 2.8.7.0

I cannot make a back up of my existing rom!!!!

when i go into back up on TWRP the first thing i get in RED is

E:Unable to mount 'data'

it then proceeds to try and make a back and then fails

I have tried the following things with no luck
- formatting the sd card in the phone and on the laptop through 3 different formats
- trried to make a back up locally but cant as not enough space
- used the sd card formatter to format the sd card
- a 2gb, 16gb and 32gb sd card with no joy
- run root checker to ensure its fully rooted and it is
- run the micro sd card fix that was disabled in kit kat
- tried to use CWM recovery to make the back up and that did the same thing
-
does any of the below info help

- i have managed to factory reset my phone before without any problems
-i used my phone for work and use gmail and therefore the phone is encrypted , will this have a bearing on me not being able to make a back up to teh sd card or locally

please help as this is driving me insane :)

[Q] Best Car Mount?

I'm looking for a car mount that can replace my old N5's qi based charger. I have a curved/textured dashboard, it would be great if I can mount on that!

Thanks!

Can't mount system [TWRP]

Hello guys,

I've unlocked my bootloader and flashed TWRP.
Unlocked the bootloader the official way, flashed TWRP latest version from their website.

When I booted my phone it went straight into recovery. I saw that in "Mount" system was unchecked, checked it, rebooted, but it still got into recovery.
I downloaded official stock rom for 5.1 and flashed it using Flashtool, which didn't help as well.

Still TWRP cannot mount SYSTEM.

Any ideas...?

Mount or unmount a sdcard

Hello. My phone is xperia z1 and I wanna unmount my sdcard that has been inserted in the phone via an app,terminal emulator or other option. Note: I dont want to eject the sdcard from the phone physically just I wanna unmount it by keeping inside the phone. Also, I wanna mount it, whenever I need my sdcard to read or write something.
Xperia z1 has an option to unmount or mount a sdcard from the phone but after restarting the phone, the sdcard is mounted automatically by the phone but I dont want this. I wanna control it manually whenever I want.

How can I do it? It is very important. Please, tell me an exact way to do it.

Regards,
Sarkhan

how can i mount system at 5.1 (UL,Root,Stock-Rom)?

Hey there browsing with all those ads is a real pain, therefore i wanted to edit the hosts-file since adaway didn't worked.

Therefore i wanted to use the content of this page and add it to my hosts-file:
http://someonewhocares.org/hosts/

problem is, i can't mount /system with total commander although root is working (flashtool installed busybox fine as the root popup comes up and asking for root).

the bootloader is unlocked and via adb shell in root mount i also get:

Code:

---

root@C6903:/ # mount -o remount,rw /system
mount -o remount,rw /system
mount: Operation not permitted

---

is there another way? can i somehow flash the hosts-file trough recovery?
