Hello,
I recently got a Oneplus X. Today, I got a 17mb OTA update after downloading the update I started installing the update even though it said phone is rooted and update might not install. I still tried installing it and the update failed. Now I am stuck on the screen with these options -
internal storage,
install from adb,
wipe data and cache,
advanced,
exit
How do I start my phone. Sorry I am completely new to android so I don't know what to do so please help me.
Basically now you are in recovery mode. Download from here the official rom for your phone. Put it on a sdcard or , if the computer recognize your phone, put the downloaded file on the internal memory. Then, select from the recovery "install from internal storage" and select the downloaded file. It should restore your phone to factory mode.

Hey everyone last night I rooted my phone and this morning I attempted flashing a ROM called ViperOneS that you can look at here -->http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2105863. So in order to install it the OP wrote in the instructions to factory restore the phone which I did. When I cleared the cache and everything and went to install it TWRP said it failed so I just erased it. Then when I went to reboot it was stuck on the screen with the red writing so I rebooted it in Recovery and it said there was no OS installed. I looked for this problem online and found that if I mounted the phone to my computer I could copy and paste a new ROM for my phone which I eventually tried to do but for some reason it does not allow me to check off either of the boxes next to "Mount SD Card" or "Mount Internal." It does let me mark all the other boxes. Could somebody explain what I should do so the computer recognizes the phone as a "Removable Disk" like it used to so I can just drag and drop a new OS into my phone and put this thing behind me already? If you can't tell already I'm a newby at this stuff so if you can make simple steps that'd be great. Thanks in advance.
try this:
1-flash recovery again (fastboot flash recovery recovery) or change to CWM
2-erase dalvik cache and cache
3-connect as mass storage via recovery

remember always have a backup of your system specially when is your first rom
i was trying to reset my phone so i figured i would just use recovery and install from the rom i already had on my phone. however i ended up wiping my internal storage. i decided to download the viperx+ rom and sideload the zip to my storage. i wasnt able to sideload it and tried switching recoveries from, cwm, twrp, and, the venom twrp. the latest twrp i discovered has mtp so i tried mounting that and was able to find it on my computer however its showing up as only 199mb. ive tried wiping over and over and im not sure why its showing up with so little internal storage. the viperx zip file is 800mb. im not sure whats going on.
Can someone atleast point me to a thread that might help...
I flashed to CM13 using TWRP recovery.
I was unable to install the newer updates.
I flashed the recovery to cyanogen. Now every time I download new updates, I have to select the update file manually in recovery mode. Also I am afraid that if I format SD card as internal storage, I wouldn't be able to browse the update file in recovery.
Please suggest what can I do?
So, I screwed up my kid's tablet trying to allow for more than just in-device storage because Samsung gave it a Micro SD port that it can barely use.
Anyway, I used Odin to install <recovery.tar.md5> from Zip folder: T210.CWM.6.0.4.5.recovery.tar
I had tried installing T210.TWRP.2.8.0.0.tar.md5 but could not get a successful restart.
This is the instructions I followed: (Ooops! Can't post outside links, yet.)
Installed Samsung USB Drivers and enabled USB debugging. (Had issues getting all the drivers to install. But had no problems with Odin).
Copied android-armeabi-universal-root-signed.zip to the SD card on the tablet.
Sent CWM recovery file via Odin.
Rebooted into CWM recovery
Installed from Zip on external SD
Rebooted again as "Android updated"
Initial Root check said not rooted, but downloaded SuperSU by _______? (can't tell at the moment) And then it came as rooted.
Downloaded App2SD and partitioned the external SD card. Had to use Format option instead of Create for it to work.
In APP2SD, selected something about Linking apps. A prompt came up stating to reboot into recovery and do 2 things which I quickly forgot.
Rebooted into CWM and have been stuck ever since.
Attempts to turn off the Tablet end up in a restart into CWM. I did discover that if you press and hold the Power button and the Home button, it will force a shut down, which gave the screen a rest.
I've used most wipe options in CWM, accept the dalvik cache.
When I choose "restore from /sdcard," the image "2017-08-22.16.41.29" results in "Checking MD5sums... MD5 mismatch!"
I was able to remove the MicroSD and add the android-armeabi-universal-root-signed.zip folder back to it. However, after installing this zip successfully in CWM recovery, it just reboots me right back to CWM.
In this adventure, I have used ADB to re-flash CWM but nothing changed. I'm brand new to all of this as you can tell.
I need to get this tab back in working order. What do I do?
CWM recovery gives MD5 mismatch on restore
OK, got a TWRP to work (T210.TWRP.2.8.7.0.tar.md5). Now, I at least have a factory reset, working tablet.
But there is still a backup file from CWM, right? The "2017-08-22.16.41.29"that results in "Checking MD5sums... MD5 mismatch!"
Any chance I could fix this error and get back some or all of my missing stuff?
Wrong forum im afraid...
Ever considered flashing stock firmware with Odin?
Read up on it Itll solve most of your issues
Which is the correct forum, then?
What I really need to know is how to link apps to my SD card. Or some other procedure that allows me to use SD as internal storage.
I tried to flash a custom Rom in my Samsung J5 prime J500H. I am new to this and I followed along with a few youtube video. After I installed TWRP recovery. I tried to install the custom ROM that I copied in my external SD card.
Firstly, I wiped all the data along with the system data too in the TWRP recovery and didn't realize it. Then I went to external storage to install the ROM but it was not there even though I didn't wipe the external storage.
Now after I reboot, my phone loops in the start screen only. I try to enter in the download mode but I can't get there as the boot screen again starts up and goes on a loop.
However, I can go into recovery mode.
I tried copying the custom ROM into my sd card from my computer but the sd card won't show that file whenever I go to install in TWRP recovery. It only shows the file which was already in it.
Basically, now my phone doesn't start up and only I can go to recovery mode where I can do nothing but just click the icons I see.
Please help me through this.
