Hi. I am trying to flash Cyanfox 2.0.2 for my s2. The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to find my zips. I've tried putting the rom and the gapps zip in both the /sdcard0 (internal memory), /sdcard1 (ext. SD card) as well as in the root folder of my phone. The only folders showing up in CWM when choosing "Install zip from sdcard" are 0 and obb. It looks like I have no option to choose between /sdcard0 or /sdcard1 inside CWM.
Can anyone enlighten me?

Thanks, but I don't wanna bother with updating CWM yet, if I can find another solution first. I haven't done done an update to CWM Recovery before, so I am clueless about that. Anyway, I found out today that one of the data pins inside the micro usb is broken, so I can't transfer using ADB.
Edit: I thought I finally had got it. I downloaded ROM Manager. I haven't done that before since I've had some problems using wi-fi on the unofficial CM11 ver I had (one of the reasons for why I'm updating). I selected "Install rom from sdcard" in rom manager, navigated to the rom, and chose to install. ROM Manager booted into recovery and showed the following error:
E:Can't open /data/media/CyanFox2.0.2.i9100.zip
(No such file or directory)

Which doesn't lead me anywhere, since it's basically the same problem that I had in the first place.

For some reason, when I fastboot into CWM and go to Android Recovery and then "install zip from sdcard", my SD-Ext doesn't appear in the menu even though the SD card is installed??
Not sure what could be going on...
Yes, that is a known bug I official cwm
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I didn't have any troubles beforehand when I installed Ninja ROM. Anyway to access it so I can install my bootanimation or should I place that zip file to the internal storage? Also, I made a backup of my current ROM and this sucks since I cannot access it right now (if need be)
Edit: Nvm, I had ROM Manager installed and that is what caused the problem. I deleted the program and reflashed CWM and everything is good now.
ext-sd is showing up for me.

Known issue. Please use this CWM
Noob question.
Installing CM7 with CWM and ROM Manager, I'm getting can't mount /emmc
using internal SD with "the hard method", rooted with SOC
do i have to partition the SD card?
Dont flash CWM with ROM manager...use Odin to flash CWM kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285823). Also, dont use internal SD option, just go to install from SD in CWM and find the file...I had issues installing CM7 so let me know how it goes for you.
What the reply said. I initially had troubles trying to install from my SD card, so I just used root on my internal SD card. I flashed CM7 from CWM rather than using ROMManager, and ended up having my phone hang at boot. After some research, I discovered there's a glitch where the flash doesn't work correctly, so you actually have to flash CM7, and then flash it again right afterwards. Works like a charm for me now.
Hope this helps!
thanks for the replies both of you!
i did get CWM flashed ok...v5.0.2.3
when i'm in CWM, i disable signature checking then install from zip from internal sdcard and i get

I think internal and external SD card are switched somewhere in CWM.
thanks! how do i fix that?
ok, yes Entropy you were right, the internal sdcard gives the /emmc error, the zip from sdcard works, and cm-galaxys2-full-75.zip starts installing then give the following
asset failed: getprop....
E:Error in /sdcard/cm_galaxys2_full-75.zip
(Status 7)
i also tried toggle script asserts
i figured it out, it was the galaxys2 nightlies from rommanager, not the galaxys2att, trying that now...
I don't think the euro GS2 nightlies work with ATT GS2, I could be mistaken though.

Thanks dan40hands,
I got it working with the ROM posted in Dev...
Doesn't look like the euro nightlies work...

Use this one http://www.multiupload.com/73J3G4C1CV
1. Boot into CWM
2. Nandroid back-up
3. Wipe data & cache
4. Choose install zip from SD card
5. Select the file downloaded above and install
6. Repeat step 4 & 5
7. Reboot and Enjoy
Why would you have to do 4 and 5 twice. Ie install it twice?

Oddity with Cyanogenmod in regard to coming from Samsung-derived ROMs, I think involving filesystem formatting. It was the same on the Infuse. Once you're on CM7, you'll only have to do updates once.

Good afternoon,
I am having a big problem with my white Samsung Galaxy I9100 S2. I haven't sd card, but my internal memory is 11.5 GB. So I would like to install CWM. When I root via CF-root I have CWM 4. Everything is fine and I can to install zip via recovery boot.
But when I flash other kernel with CWM 5 (with blue text) I am getting an error when I try to install zip via recovery boot. Error says that E:can't mount /sdcard/.
So where is the problem? I have tried everything: about 10 different kernels, different roms, format internal memory, use ROM manager and so on. When the CWM is 5 it doesn't work, I get an error. But when the CWM is 4 everything is fine.
I am waiting your answers.
Thank you in advance!
Regards,
MySelf
Still waiting your answers..
So basicly if you use CF-root everything is fine. Then what is the problem? Where did you get CWM 5 from?
The problem is that the CWM5 doesn't work. Read my first post.
CWM5 I got with a kernel from xda forum.
Again: the problem is that if I have CWM5 I'm getting error which is saying that E:can't mount /sdcard/ and I can't install zip in recovery mode.
Regards,
MySelf
Yes I can understand that. But why do you need CMW5?
If it comes with an other rom, I then can understand that you have no choice. But if CWM4 works, then there is no point in using CWM5.
Choose internal sdcard, not sdcard.

It comes with other rom and kernels. I would like to use other rom (not SGS2 stock) with other kernels and I can't, because I am getting error.

How to choose it? It is set by default I think, because I can't find anywhere where I could choose CWM usage internal sdcard, not sdcard.

In newer versions of CWM recovery, (such as 5.0.2.7 in Siyah kernel) after you select an option like "install zip from sdcard", there should be multiple options:
choose zip from sdcard
apply /sdcard/update.zip
toggle script asserts
choose zip from internal sdcard
On a stock ROM "from sdcard" refers to /sdcard/external_sd (i.e. a physical microSD) and "from internal sdcard" refers to /sdcard (i.e. internal storage).
Before installing zip try this:
go to mounts and storage
mount data (thats mean change it from mount /data to unmount /data)
and so on for system.
then install your zip file.

Get into CWM, hit install zip from SDcard and then if you put it in internal storage go to choose zip from internal sdcard and if you put it on your regular sd card choose zip from sdcard. Then just find the .zip file and select it. After its flashed wipe data.

...It's wherever you dragged it to. Check internal and external SDCard in Recovery sometimes they get mixed up

First try what ninja said...in CWM try both "install zip from sd card" and "install zip from internal sd card".
If you still cannot find it, it sounds like you just misplaced the zip file. Try downloading it again, make sure you place it in the root of the external sd card, and then from CWM select install zip from sd card.

From a quick google search it seems you are going to have to restart the process all over again! (YAY!!)

Following the guide everything went good until i came to the point of installing the rom from the sdcard.
When I try to choose zip from sdcard, CWM says "E:can't mount /sdcard/"
Someone told me to format the card with SD Formatter, I've done it but it didn't solve anything. :crying:
I'm completely stuck now, anyone can help me, please?

In CWM v6.1.0.4 downloaded with Alpha 2 it does not have external sdcard option.
I resolved with CWM v6.1.0.5 which comes with Alpha 3. :good:
Used Sideload option, since it doesn't see any external sdcard as well!
