Accidentally formated sdcard currently in TWRP with no rom. - Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to install an AOSP rom and stuffed it up. Here's what I did so far. I normally format the internal sdcard when I flash a new daily driver but forgot I haven't put in an external sdcard.
I am currently now in TWRP with no OS. I want to turn the phone off and put in an exernal sdcard to flash a rom. I am just afraid if I turn it off now I won't be able to get back into recovery.
Just wanted to check if this is possible, otherwise I'll leave it on and attempt a sideload and flash a rom that way (still reading up on this if anyone is familiar would appreciate any advice.)
With Windroid
i) Flashed TWRP
ii) Installed SU
With TWRP
formatted dlavik cache etc etc and, very unfortunately, sdcard as well.
Where I am at with sideload
Trying to follow a tutorial (can't link)
Currently I am at the part where I am installing the sdk bundle to get the adb executable.

change to usb storage mode in twrp, and plug to your pc, copy rom to phone, unmount usb storage mode, flash the rom

Sweet much easier than I thought, what a time to be alive...
ROM currently installing, hope all is good.
Thanks again!
Edit: Also, is it weird that when I press reboot system in TWRP (after the ROM installed) nothing happens? It just stays there. This also happened when I installed SU, I had to take my battery out to reset it and SU was there when it booted back on.
I previously used CWM so a bit new to TWRP.

what is that? im sorry i am noobish :/ i dont really get it , i need noob insructions
well i can access recovery , but when i flash a rom it gives me the same problem
Go back to your baxkup through recovery. Push powr+vol dwn+home. You get into recovery and then choose restore backup.

if you can access clockworkmod recovery, you should still be able to do what lekhwani said. i dont think you get what hes trying to say, so i will say everything step by step
to get the rom onto your phone, you can do either this (longer):
1. plug you sdcard into your adapter. connect your adapter into your computer
2. on your computer, download a rom and move it to your sdcard under directory /sdcard
3. eject the sdcard and put into back into your phone
or this (faster, easier):
1. boot into recovery and plug your phone into the computer
2. under mounts and storage, select mount usb storage
3. on your computer, download and paste the rom of your choice onto your sdcard under directory /sdcard
(skip to number 5)
4. boot your phone into recovery (home+vol down+power)
5. wipe EVERYTHING (if you want your phone to work, you have to do it; on the first menu you see, select all the options that have the word "wipe" in it; after that go into the advanced menu and wipe everything there). vol up is to go up, vol down is to go down. the menu button is to select
6. go back to the first menu and select install zip from sdcard. then select choose zip from sdcard.
7. select the rom, then hit yes (your rom is now being flashed)
8. reboot

so basically thats like installing a rom?
every rom i do doesnt work, it has the same problem, stuck at the lg logo, i wiped cache, cleared everything. im worried if my phone is bricked :/
when im in the cwm recovery menu, i connect the usb cable and it doesnt recognize it, so i use the adapter, and is it normal if the sd card has absaloutely not even one file on it?
as for now, i wouldnt worry about whether your sdcard has any files on it or not. right now, we should be worried about whether your phone can be fixed. have you tried moving a rom onto your sdcard using the adapter? can you see the rom in recovery?
ok thanks, i am downloading a rom right, now. And yes i can see the rom in the recovery menu
ok so the rom is now on my sd card, what do i do from here?
thanks again
OK, i installed the rom, its stuck at the LG logo AGAIN, how long should i wait for it if its first time booting???
someone please reply , i need to fix it as soon as possible and im trying and nothing works.

Can't Boot New Atrix

I recently purchased a used atrix. It worked fine but I wanted to try a different ROM.
Fast forward a little bit and I had rooted, unlocked the bootloader, and setup a recovery.
I downloaded the Neutrino CM7 ROM and put it on my external SD card (possible mistake #1, the thread says use internal).
I went into the recovery on the phone, made a backup of the phone and then went about wiping dalvik, cache, factory-reset, etc.
I then flashed the ROM from zip and some of the addons from the thread. When I went to reboot, the phone sits at the "M Dual Core" screen (I gave it plenty of time for any kind of background "first-boot" stuff and even removed the battery and let it try again). I have wiped and reinstalled the ROM about 4 times now.
I then decided to just go back to my original config and tried to restore from the backup (after wiping). Now after restoring the backup I either get a bootloop, or it will just sit at the "M Dual Core" screen again.
My only solace was that I was able to get into fastboot from the phone, but now after many attempts, it displays "Battery is too low to flash" if I try to enter fastboot. The phone doesn't seem to charge because it just sits at the "M Dual Core" screen whether its plugged into the wall or otherwise.
I am stuck on what to do next. I have access to the recovery, so I thought of trying another ROM, but how can I get those files to the device?

You could plug your microSD card to a computer and copy the ROM you want to it. Alternatively, I once saw an option in clockworkmod recovery to mount the sdcard or the internal storage with the phone plugged to a computer via USB. If I recall it correctly, this option is located in the 'mounts and storage' section of the recovery.

And also update your recovery to romracer or cwm touch, you will again get stuck at M logo with an outdated recovery.

possibly bricked phone need help

ok. I finally decided to root my note 2. i have rooted many phones before, so i am familiar with the process. I used the one click verizon method posted here. Rooted fine. Booted into TWRP (first time using this recovery). wiped cache, etc. Installed rom (paranoidandroid 3). froze at boot screen.
went back to recovery tried to reinstall. same thing. deleted everything through twrp and tried to mount internal card. Nothing. PC wont see it. I can adb and see the device and see it in device manager, but cant see the cards in my computer. can not mount through adb using mount /sdcard, mount /data, etc, says device is busy. cant boot into bootloader to reinstall CWM recovery, etc.
Any suggestions?

A lot of the time when booting a rom and it freezes during the boot you can do a battery pull and then power the phone back on again and it'll work.
If you can still get into recovery you could flash CWM, I take you meaning you cant boot into bootloader as meaning you can't boot into recovery though....
Why were you trying to mount the internal storage in TWRP? It's automatically mounted for me every time I boot into recovery.
Can you reach Download Mode? If so you may want to use Odin to go back to stock, using droidstyles guide, and start over again. When you get back to stock just root and unlock again and try this again.

[Q] TF201 is in Clockworkmod recovery and doesn't see the SD card

Hello,
I will highly appreciate if somebody can help me.
I wanted to clear my Prime TF201 that's why I used the "Reset device" option in the Menu. After device started again on the screen I see a Clockworkmod recovery v5.8.2.0 menu. And here begins the problem I can't do anything.
When I choose reboot it restarts and I'm back at the main Menu.
When I choose install update from SD card I see only files from the internal memory of the device (although I have deleted them). I've tried to connect to PC but adb said: no device connected.
Generaly I's stuck- no SD card, no USB can be used for recovery file instalation or something like that.
Please help me :crying:
To make this clear: CWM works? Then I suppose you're not fubar.
Have you tried if it shows up in fastboot?

Hi, I don't think it is working since I only see the menu of CWM and none of the options is working. How to try fastboot?
Follow this guide, it worked for me.
Get your downloads and the appropriate ROM and start with the "fastboot devices", then it should show up.
TWRP worked for me and CWM didn't, this is why I recommend it. You can just flash it on top of CWm and it will replace it.
Remember to wipe Dalvik, System, Cache ad Data before installing the other ROM.
/e: I should mention that it did work when I had a non-booting CWM first.

Bootloop (Device Always Boots Into CWM)

Hi everyone, I have a problem with my phone.
It is no longer booting into the OS, instead it boots into the recovery mode.
So here's what happened. I was on Google Play Store looking for some utility apps, and found this "[ROOT] Rashr" app, read its details and got interested in it since I also do wanna try to back up my CWM Recovery. I don't even completely understand what it means, but as what the apps says, I really thought that with it, backing up my recovery will be very easy, just like how ROM is backed up when you do a NANDroid backup. So, after it was installed, I head on to its Back-Up section, ticked the box for "Recovery", and tapped on "Go", expecting that it would work. It said "Rebooting..." and booted to recovery mode, so I thought that I had to complete the "Recovery Back-Up" inside CWM, so I spent time looking through the options. And, this is where I discovered that CWM has a rainbow color mode. When I found out that no signs of back up could be done in CWM, I rebooted from within CWM. BUT, it still booted to Recovery Mode.
I tried . . .
Odin, but since it boots only to recovery, Odin isn't detecting it.
Wiped the data, cache partition, and Dalvik cache. Then restore.
Can this be fixed? I badly need help.
I have:
CWM Recovery v6.0.3.6 (used when I rooted the phone), updated to v6.0.4.5 (current)
Stock ROM 4.1.2
Recent NANDroid Backup
Any inputs will be very much appreciated. Thanks.
No intention of giving the "Rashr" app a bad name. I just didn't know how to use it.

I never thought the solution would be that simple. Hehe Thanks manoj. :good:
Finally fixed it!
What I did:
1) Flashed the stock Recovery. I was surprised it was able to boot to Android cause I was thinking that the zip is only the stock recovery. It had errors though. Home Screen won't appear or load.
2) When rebooted, it got stuck in SAMSUNG boot animation, but it was all good cause Odin was still able to detect it which means it can still be rooted. So . . .
3) Flashed CWM Recovery v6.0.3.6
3) Wiped data, cache partition, and Dalvik cache.
4) Restored the backup.
