[Q] Cwm problem - Acer Iconia A500

Hi , I have a problem, after installing , through Acer Recovery , Cwm , I can't find a way to install a rom mod , like Thor one, Cmw can't see the update zip in external memory card saying E: can't mount , but card is there and I can see it in Astro file manager and I can't even choose another path, error is the same. Anyone can help?
Thanks Ramp

Common problem, LOTS of posts in here about the same thing over the last few months.
You'll need to reformat your SD in another device, preferably a proper PC, or try a different card (maybe a smaller one).

[Q] Unable to write to ums lunfile. Reward of 20$ for solution!

Hi everyone,
I'm sicked of this error "Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)" I search all this forum and google. But i can't find a solution!
So I offer a reward of 20$ to the one who gonna help me with that problem. I prefer offer someone this little money for help instead of buying a new phone...
I have an HD2, he was rooted with a MIUI Rom (and a lot of other Android NAND Rom before), everything was fine until one day i woke up and no more SD Card readable. I restarted my device but it changed nothing. I try reflashing the ROM but when it come to the part "install zip from sdacard" with ClockWorkMod i had the "Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)" or "E:Can't mount /sdcard"
I tried reflashing a Win6.5 ROM and redo the whole process (MAGLDR 1.1.3 with Recovery 3.2.0.0 or 4.0.0.0) but always the same error.
I tried putting another SD Card => same thing
I tried formating my SD Card with SDFormatter
Someone have a solution? Or want to try helping me getting rid of this error?
thanks
up! Some one please :'(

1. Reflash ClockWorkMod Recovery (The newest version)
2. If that doesn't work, take the SD Card out of your phone and reformat through Windows using FAT32. MAKE SURE YOU "UNCHECK" QUICK FORMAT
3. If I'm not mistaken, that error is a mounting issue with USB, so maybe reinstall all of your drivers for the phone. (i.e. the Google USB driver, the HTC drivers, etc.)
Ok i just reflashed it and nothing changed.
Actually I can acess my SD from USB MASS STORAGE of MAGLDR 1.1.3
So it's a problem with Clockwork Mod Recovery isn't it?
I also have the same problem. I am trying android for the first time and I am stuck.
formatting the sd card worked for me
kinda same happened to me
i accidentally re-partitionned internal sd card
then i tried to format all folders: /data /system /sdcard........
now i can boot into CWM
but i can`t even mount USB ... it shows "E: unable to write to ums lunfile"
when i try to wipe data/system, it shows:
error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!
when i plug it on the computer, windows can detect 2 disks but i can`t access it with partition magic
i think i`ll have to repartition the internal sdcard and format everything again.. thats it?

I'm sure you got it fixed by now, but if your without a card reader you could , boot into the tri-color screen and reinstall win mobile 6.5 and use it to format your sdcard , then redo magldr or clk and see if you get things to going, just make sure your using a CWR made for HD2
i have the samme problem

And whats about the case, you internal memory gives you this error..? :crying:
Hello, this problem has came to me also, just one day the card is not working, i have 2 cards of 2gb, both of them not working with the ums lum errors cannot mount them in cwm recovery. Both of them are working in the card reader in pc. I have tryed to windows full format them, then panasonoc sd formater, it didnt work. I have clockworkmod recovery 3.0.1.4 version, and i haven found any upgrades on that. E: unable to write to ums lunfile
anyone could give me a solution without wiping rom out ?
Also I'm thinking to upgrade my clockworkmod recovery to some later version, maybe that could help out ? But cant find 2 things - 1) how to do that without using sd card?
2) Will i loose my data on the phone ?
i'm not sure if your roms will load after formating sdcard, probably it depends on the rom you use.
Once upon a time i had some errors with my sdcard and nothing help, neither windows formatting nor some sophisticated utilities like panasonic formatter.
But formatting in nokia phone did fix the sdcard. It was Nokia n97,but I believe any nokia n-series will do, or maybe just any nokia phone. Try it it helped to many people.
and let us now if this method worked
i did found a way to install cwm without sd card, using fastboot. But that didnt solve the problem of phone detecting sd card. I have 2 cards, none of them are working in the phone, but works in the reader. I dont have any data in the card, phone works with android, but it wont recognize sd card. Anyone got fixed that ? I mean, the card was working one month ago, no its not.
Anyone any sugestions without reflashing it ? since a lot of ppl try this, and it didint work for them .
Here what i found is 100% exactly what is happened to me.

[Q] SD card blocked after update CWM

Today, many hours ago, i wanted to install the
[ROM][22/1/12][U8800][MIUI][v2.1.20][MULTILINGUAL][2.6.35 Kernel]
I came from the
[ROM][15/01/2012][U8800][MIUI][v2.1.20][MULTILINGUAL][2.6.32 Kernel]
So first changed my CWM into version ClockworkMod [v5.5.0.4]
I first pasted the new rom on my U8800 (previous versions i also had the network problems so needed latest version) SD card, then did the new CWM install and after this i lost all sound and mic...
I tryed to install the new ROM but still the network problem...
So i did my back-up but again no sound/mic/vibrate working...
After this i wanted to put an older rom or maybe CWM back on my SD card but now the SD can't be written on...
What can i do now...
Someone plz help me... Now my phone doesn't have network or any sound, vibrate also isn't working...
Best regards VdBRoald
Try to update from internal sd?
Also, the newer MIUI requires you to install official 2.3.5 before you install it. The newer has different kernel .35 that is required for all functions to work. (Batterystat , network, wlan, etc.)

thx for reply,
The inside memory is to small for installing a ROM and atm i only have the Build-in SD card, the one that is now write protected for a reason...
Because i came from another rom i think it isn't needed for first upgrading my standard version into 2.3.5...?
Best regards
Trust me, it is needed. .35 roms don't work unless you have first installed official 2.3.5.
Buy sdcard and try to install from there.
Try to mound/unmoung sd in cwm and try to install then.

Try first to mount sd card on pc and check it for errors with windows check disk app. I don' t think that the card is damaged. Then you need to put dload folder from 2.3.5 official rom package(instructions are on package' s pdf file) and flash it from bootloader by pressing vol+,vol-,power when device is off.
The SD card isn't damaged , just is write protected now...
Tryed to mount/unmount in CWM but gives an error (because of problem mensioned i think...)
I can buy a new one but i hope it doesn't reaches that point... :x
Put the card in a card reader and mount it on pc. I don' t think that you have problems then.
It is a build-in SD card so i can't reach it... :'(
edit:Just wanted to dl the official 2.3.5 release from Huawei.
But all sites seems to have deleted the file...
Do you have 5.5.0.4 recovery? I had same problem with that.
Try to change your recovery to Genokolars 5.0.2.7 or the official 5.0.2.6 one.
Firstly, you should've updated your base ROM to B522, then flash MIUI. The problem for your case is that the new kernel does not work with the old base.
Here's what you should do:
Flash B522.
Flash CWM.
Flash MIUI.
How can i do this without an sd card that can be written ons?
I Will do this after i found the solution for the SD card problem, then i can copy new files on it...
PS: factory reset also doesn't work because off problems
You change the recovery in PINK SCREEN not in internal sd card.
Change the recovery, then youll be able to access sd, at least I did.

Use another phone or, even a camera. Insert the micro SD to that, connect to USB, make folder dload on the card, copy the update.app into there and do the steps I wrote before.
All already thx for the comments, i just got a new sd card, for the low cost of 8euro i don't bother for more trouble handling with that. So now i'am trying to do everything with my new card.
It was a hard start because it wasn't working well in beginning, i put the files off the first step true pc (in SD holder) and is now installing the new firmware... let's hope that all the rest will go a bit easyer
Thx a lot to all the replyers and specially to Blefish!
Everything is working perfect now!
The only thing i now have to do is search for some nice ring and message tones
Finally i can call and be called again

Cant flash Rom with CWM

Hey dudes,
i took my x8 after a while out of dust and i flashed the nAa-11. So i want to flash a new rom (ICS), but every file that i copy to my sd card looks like corrupt. There is always an error with (bad) in it.
And yes i downloaded the rom 4 times and its the same though.
But theres another problem, i flashed the nAa kernel new because i thought it was a problem there, now my x8 only goes black. (At the moment on stock to get SMS )
Does anyone has an idea to solve my problems?
try flashing with xrecovery?
I managed to get the CWM working again but all my files seem to be bad.
Dude, for the best roms u will need CWM so i dont use xrecovery anymore.
I try to download miui so i will see if its ok.
Hi exebreez
Try this:
- Backup the data on your mSD to your computer (i.e. put the card into a mSD adapter).
You get any errors in Windows about "File can't be read"?
If not...
- Format the mSD FAT32 in Windows (NO QUICK FORMAT!)
Format went through without errors?
If yes...
- Copy the data back onto the mSD
Windows coughed up any errors like "Failure while writing to drive x:"?
If not...
- Put the card back into your phone and turn it on.
- Connect the phone in USB-Storage mode to your computer
- Copy the update ZIP you would want to flash
- Pull a md5sum of the file on your computer and pull a md5sum of the file on your phone (the USB mass storage drive).
Use this free utility to perform the job.
Do the md5sum's match or not?
thanks mate

U8800 pro serious problem

Ok lets start from the beginning:
I was trying to upade from 2.2.2 official to 2.3 official and now i'm messed up because after the step : "upgrade sd card" my phone restarted and my usb cabel was still on and phone started charging,after that i tried to turn on my phone.It worked but after 20secs my screens freezes and cant do anything even turn off i need to take battery out,also phone not detects my sim card...
Any idea? My phone is rooted,have installed CWM5.0.2.3,but have no backup only public one...But i can't mount usb storage because i get error like "E:Unable to open ums lunfile(no such file or directory)
ANY IDEAS????
I can get to pinkscreen aswell
If you have an external sd card put the public backup there and try to restore via cwm (if you get boot till there). You can also try the update procedure(the dload folder and stuff) but put them in the external sd card! The phone should boot from there.
Anyway,better wait for more answers since I'm not the best in here.I just know how to flash some custom roms.

sorry for dumb question but microsd = external sd? if yes - then i placed the backup in the card but in cwm only phone memory shows no sdcard...
Edit: external i got that
well it actually is an external microsd card
did you manage to restore via cwm?
P.S. if cwm doesn't see your se card go to advaced->reboot into recovery
should be able to see it now

When i do "reboot into recovery" my phone double restarts and 2nd time it turns on normally not into recovery...
Don't know why this is done,but I think we should be happy that your phone isn't bricked
Maybe someone else here can help you and provide better solutions than mine
Have a read through http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1639761.
Has a link in it to how I solved my issue of constant reboots.
Also , since you can load pink screen, you can connect through usb and change your recovery to 5.0.2.7. That's the one i used. Make sure that you have a cust.img file in the "image" folder. That is where the recovery should be too but am guessing you already know that.
If for some reason you dont have cust.img you can find and download a generic version in these forums. Did not need it so I did not bookmark the post I found it in but I think it was the Kalo's Honor Port thread in the pro development section.

[Q] LG Optimus L5, recovery and app2sd don't see the external SD

Hello World,
I've got a question concerning the external 8gb sdcard on my phone,
the phone is rooted, has bootloader and cwm 6, the rom is stock btw
My phone can put/place some things to the sd but some don't,
for example,
- Camera saves some of the pics to it,
- My PC sees it when I connect the phone and I can put apps/music etc to it
but,
- I can't use the app2sd built into android assistant (or any other app2sd apps) to move the apps to the sd, they just won't see the sd,
- CWM wont backup to it,
No /sdcard/.android_secure found. Skipping backup of applications on external storage
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've searched the forum, but I can't actually find the right solution for this?
I'm new to all of this, and I want to learn. I've found some advices to similar problems and that the solution is to partition the sd, is that the catch or maybe something else?
Thank you in advance, newbie.
Edit
A new example of not seeing the sd in recovery,
I wanted to flash the "Sony Album" via the Pimp my Rom app, it downloaded the app successfully, it asked for clearing of the dalvik cache, I approved it,
phone rebooted and went into recovery, and then the recovery said that the file doesnt exist (something like that).
Edit
I've tried formatting the sd with fat32, no changes whatsoever :S
