I dont think you can, just use another recovery. I have the same problem with cwm touch it does not show any zip files in external or internal sd card.

Hey there guys.
I have been using my phone everyday with no problems - currently using CM7 by Mik.
Anyways, I put some songs into my SD Card through USB yesterday and I went on with my day, no problems.
I got home, and I notice the SD card was removed. I reset my phone but now my phone does not recognize the SD card.
I tried the SD card on my sister's Android phone and it works perfectly. I can't even get the USB connection to work.
How do I go about fixing this? I tried getting in through the Android SDK, still no luck. I tried mounting via recovery and no such luck also.
Any help would be great, thanks.
just flash the rom which u are using (u said mik's rom) from recovery without formatting system and without any data or cache wipe, i think that should work.
Your data will be as it is but u need to flash again the zip files u flashed after rom install previously (like google apps zip file from mik, ap2sd zip file, any theme zip file etc. whatever u flashed previously).

Tried mounting it from recovery. No luck :|
Is it a problem with the phone itself?
Did it gave an error or nothing happened
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
use a different sd card and see if u r able to flash from recovery
Nothing happened, just says "no such directory" or SD card cannot be found.
No error or anything.
I put my SD card into my sister's Android and it still works. I used her SD card and it doesn't work on my phone but it works on hers.
I think it's the ROM or the phone itself. How do I go about flashing the phone through the PC without an SD card? Or how do I flash a ROM from recovery without SD card?

I think u should flash stock rom from lgmdp.
follow "cook your custom rom" till step 2
cook your custom rom- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901417
(disable lg modem before start)
Now start lgmdp and
select port
select image folder the created "stockrom" folder
Now uncheck "recovery image" option (to have custom recovery retained)
then download.
(donot disconnect untill it shows download complete)
Note: i didnot test it , but i think it should work.

Hi, as I said before, I've already tried sticking other SD cards in my phone. They aren't being read, but when I try to put them into other phones, it works OK.

Hey there, I'll look into this, though I doubt I'll be doing all of this since I'm not very proficient in doing all those commands and whatnot :|
Anyone else have any other ideas before I start doing mad scientist stuff to my phone?
Hey I'm currently using the lightning 6.1 rom you guys have on this forum but I'm trying to get the new cyanogen mod 7.1 on my galaxy s2 instead via CWM.
I've rebooted into recovery to try flash the .zip but nothing shows up on my SD card... when I try enter the folder it just springs back to the start menu and i'm unable to flash.
Does anyone have any idea?
I have:
Formated my SD card, then put all my data back on.
Made sure the SD card is working.
So how comes its not working via CWM? I can ask to flash it via the actual app but when it boots into recovery to flash it gives me a signature error.

Try going to the "mounts and storage" option in CWM. Then click on mount sd card. That might be your problem.
TIP: If you want to flash CM7 flash this kernel before http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693 , becasue if your using cf root kenrel you will get into trouble.

I tried this and it still says there are no files on the SD card... do I need to name it something specific? I tried naming the rom zip update.zip once but that didn't do anything either.
I dont really want to flash to a recovery rom only if i'm not able to get CM7 off of my SD Card :/
*edit* I currently have the zips at the root of the SD card.. there are 4 folders data, LOST.DIR, DCIM and media... should the files be on the root or in another folder?
Make sure the zip file is on the root of the "internal" sd card, also just keep the name the same as the downloaded file. You should find it somewhere at the bottom of the list. Also select with the menu button, not the power button. Power button is to go back.

He means, place it on phones storage, and not the SD card. Just use the USB cable and transfer it from your PC (Or Mac )

Hi, I was wondering if I can flash a custom ROM into my Galaxy S2 but without SD card
it's already rooted but the problem is that in every tutorial I read here I find that I must copy the zip file of the custom ROM to the SD Card
So if there's anyway to flash this custom ROM without the SD card it would be great
Thanks.
Any tutorial you're following is probably using sdcard to mean internal storage. There's no requirement for a physical, external micro sd card.
So if I followed the tutorial and copied the zip file to the internal storage will it be okay or what ? (excuse me but I'm new to this and kinda lost)
You can link a tutorial to be sure, but unless you're formatting the internal storage (/sdcard), there's no reason it won't work. I've not seen a tutorial requiring the format of /sdcard.
yes, it will work fine.
read and reread the instructions until you are comfortable with them.

should not be a problem, just boot into standard recovery mode and flash the zip from your internal memory
As said CWM installs from SD card internal not external add on sd card .

Okay, this tutorial requires a separate SD Card and said the internal memory will not work

Author doesn't know what he's talking about. Use the MIUI site for support and installation instructions. Just because someone wrote instructions on a blog doesn't make them fact.
Thats MIUI and its BETA WARNING!!! USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Download your MIUI rom from the official english website
http://miuiandroid.com/
Connect your phone to PC and copy the zip file to your phone ( since you don't have an SD card you can't copy anywhere else anyway ).
Reboot to ClockworkMod Recovery and do a wipe data, wipe cache.
Go to advanced , wipe Dalvik cache , wipe battery stats.
Go back and choose install from zip from sd card , then choose "choose zip from sd card" , select your zip , confirm it once more and you're done. After its finished select reboot.
Okay thanks guys you're all awesome, I did it and its intalled just fine
I've took a backup using CWM, but now can I restore my contacts or apps ?

Apps you can only restore if you backed them up with titanium backup before flashing. Contacts, well... You should have those on your SIM card, or Google account if you used sync.

I cant even restore from a previous backup. I tried to mount sdcard from cwm and it says,
Error mounting /storage/sdcard1!. same error is displaying for sdcard0.
but i can access to both sd cards from laptop..
how can i fix this?
please help me.. :crying:
You're files are in /0 now. Install philz recovery and try again. Or flash a rom from ext SD card.
You could try reading the illusion ROM thread. Its not very long,and a large part of it is discussing exactly this problem. Or you could have read it before flashing,and you wouldn't have this problem to start with.
