Recovery Problems

So, I've gotten myself into TWRP v2.7.2.0 and I was checking Install to see If I can install a new ROM and first thing I see is (Internal Storage 0 MB) and I'm scrolling through the stuff and it shows folders like cache, data, dev, efc, lib, preload, sbin, system, tmp and others. I can't mount anything (It doesn't give me option for USB Storage Mounting. the log shows something like this:

E: Unable to mount ' /data'

E: Unable to mount ' /efs'

E: Unable to mount internal storage.

E: Unable to mount ' /storage'

And so on..

And when I insert my SD card and reboot into recovery, It still shows the internal storage(0 MB) and doesn't show the contents in my SD Card.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sammpls:
OK I did some research and it seems that somehow i formatted all the data on the device. I've managed to transfer the Note 4 DN4 rom that I found on the Android Development forums. when I try to install it, It'll give me this:

Error flashing zip '/sdcard/DN4_v2 for lte(2).zip'

Updating partition details...

E: Unable to mount '/efs'

E: Unable to mount '/data'

E: Unable to mount '/data'

So, Heres what I know now:

I've got no OS installed on the phone now. I have several partitions corrupted. .Pit files probably could fix it. t889 doesn't have any working .pit files. Even if they did work Odin wouldn't flash them anyway.

I've received no help so far from anybody and nothing seems to be working... I can't believe this topic has 60+ or so views but theres 0 people to help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Sammpls:
ANYONE??? I've been waiting all day for any response!

I literally just got the phone 4 days ago...

Even if you can't give me an solution, atleast tell me what's going on?!?!?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] audit13:
I had a 0 MB problem on my HTC One X. Boot into TWRP, mount USB, connect to PC, format data partition using fat32. Good luck. Hope fully, this will allow you to access internal memory.

Did you try flashing Odin without a pit file or re-partitioning? Did you try the stock firmware from sammobile.com?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] k001daddy:
Same issue

I had my phone working perfectly with an unofficial CM 13.1. One day my battery ran a little low, and after I charged it the darned thing got stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy Note II" boot screen. After going into TWRP I noticed that it could not access any of the partitions, nor the external SD card. I have googled about every combination of search terms I can think of, but this thread was the only one that came close to describing my situation.

Following a suggestion I saw somewhere, I have tried flashing the stock rom but Odin chokes at the system.img file. I then try to boot into recovery (now stock) and it says the flashing went wrong and to go back to Kies in recovery mode. I am able to use Odin to re-flash TWRP and boot up in that, but it cannot mount anything. The /etc/fstab file has entries for the partitions but they are invalid and do not point to any device. I looked in /dev/block but there is only one partition showing for the mmcblk0 device, mmcblk0p1. There used to be at least 16 (/data used to point to /dev/block/mmcblk0p16). I tried using Odin to flash a .pit file but it does nothing.

At this point my Note II is a doorstop. This is my only phone so I am stuck. Any help will be appreciated.

Help me, Obi Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope.

Of course I did. I have twrp recovery, I cant format my device. Unable to mount any folder.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] audit13:
If you tried using different USB cables, USB ports, and different versions of Odin, the phone may need to be force flashed using hardware like an Octopus Box or the memory chip is defective.

Same. Let my battery run dead on t0lte that was running lineageOS and now it boots to Samsung Note II . TWRP cannot mount internal or external storage. This is bad!

can anyone help?

I just bought this phone, it has specification as:

- MT6592 1.7GHz Octa-Core ARM Cortex-A7

- 2 gb internal storage.

- 12gb phone storage.

- android kitkat 4.4.2

- kernel 3.4.67

- build number: blaupunkt_v1.57W (updated from 1.56W).

my problem:

- can't find the button config for entering the download mode.

- the recovery mode doesn't have install option, only update, so when i tried to install supersu.zip, it failed.

- tried rooting using apk and windows applications, failed (kingoroot successful, but gamekiller unable to run as root, other apps able to run as root).

- what to use to resize internal storage <--> phone storage.

- how to backup stock rom and recovery mode.

thanks
[Android General] Joyosuicide:
Hello, for rooting ur blaupunkt x1 u must install cwm recovery first

To make cwm recovery u can backup ur rom with mtkdroid tools, and u get cwm recovery..

Install recovery cwm with spf tools and then install supersu.zip

Good luck

thank you for the response, but can i restore back the default recovery? for not voiding the guarantee? know how to back it up and how to restore it?
[Android General] omkolte17:
but for now I think you should not do anything with that phone like rooting or changing recovery or installing custom rom , cuz its really new in market and the company's first phone .... I also bought one I liked it.
[Android General] MW-Core:
just go here... for philz recovery... custom rom etc...

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1646970205524761/
[Android General] Ashwinrg:
You can't flash any update zip in your stock android recovery. You need custom recovery for that.

You can't get your warranty back because you rooted your android using KingRoot app and it unlocked your bootloader.

Most of the manufacturer voids warranty if you unlock bootloader and rooted.

So, you can't get warranty back by flashing stock recovery if your android manufacturer voids.

I have a HTC P3300 and a radio-cd pioneer DEH-P55BT. I cannot use autoconnect due to any problem with BT compatibility … How can I solve it?

I think could be a software problem, because with native BT setting tool I can connect the phone from the radio, but I cannot see battery level and signal-power, but using a program for connecting, I have to connect from the radio but I can see in the radio the battery leve and signal-power.

How can I make my own program ... :-)

Thks for your help
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] Patrick_UK:
I was only able to use my Orbit with my DEH-70BT after changing the bluetooth settings in the registry. The stereo only looks for phones, and the Orbit reports it eslf as a PDA, so it is ignored.

After the change your Orbit will report it is a phone and not a PDA.

As to the level indicators, I use JetWare Mobile.

It is only $15 www.jetwaremobile.com

This is where I got the info from to change the registry.

Hi All,

I have just purchased a TV Micromax 42 inch Smart TV 42CH0050UHD running on Android 4.2.2, which is actually a CHANGHONG C5500 42 in Smart TV re-branded as Micromax in India.

The problem is this TV does not have Google Play Store & Play Services installed, instead having its own app store which has very few apps. Can some guide me how to install PlayStore on this TV?

PS: I have tried installing Play Store 4.6.17 which gets installed but does not work (opens & closes). Also Google Account Manager 4.0.3-239410, Google Play Services 4.4.52 and Google Services Framework 4.0.4-338691 could not install, shows APP NOT INSTALLED.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] anneoneamouse:
Ask your provider for the unlock code. If you're a customer in good standing, they'll provide it. If you have purchased the phone outright, I think they're obliged too provide it, at least here in the U.S.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbutter:
For the past three weeks or so I was torn between the M9 and the S6 (G4 is too big for my tastes), but in the end I upgraded to the S6 on T-Mobile this past Saturday from my trusty M8, thinking that the reported RAM and lag issues were minor.

After installing everything I previously had on my M8, I've already started to experience the horrible performance issues others have experienced.

Reading these forums, it seems like many people don't believe the lag issue exists (because theirs doesn't lag), but I'm sure it's dependent on your own smartphone usage. I usually have BT on, connected to BT earphones, my Fitbit Flex, and occasionally a Moto 360. Google Play Music is almost always playing music.

A common use case for myself is this: when I go for a run, I put on my BT earphones, play my favourite playlist, and track my run in my Fitbit app. My M8 handled this scenario well, albeit with some minor stuttering, but overall it was highly usable.

Fast forward to my brand new S6. The same scenario CRIPPLES it.

Here's a video demonstration of what happens.

This is only one common use case among several, in which I've experienced terrible lag or force closures. How Samsung can get away with this is infuriating. It's also mind boggling how not a single media outlet experienced/reported this issue in their reviews.

At this point, I'm deeply considering exchanging this with the M9. Luckily, I'm still within my return window with T-Mobile. I'm incredibly disappointed, since otherwise this would have been a fantastic device.

By the way, I'm running stock T-Mobile, which is on 5.1.1.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roydok:
Try clearing cache with cache cleaner app. Or flash 5.1.1 via odin.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f1ux:
Try installing the newest android system webview.

It's newer than the play store, once I installed, all my lag problems disappeared.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krelvinaz:
And then you are complaining there is lag?

Perhaps you could remove all of the stuff you loaded, then start from the beginning testing as you go to see what it is you loaded that caused the lag.

Just because you used it on the M8, doesn't mean it will function the same on the S6.

Making a bunch of changes and then discovering you are having issues makes it pretty hard to figure out what caused the issues.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Japultra:
Wow! If you had not posted the video, I wouldn't have believed it. Crazy lag.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingP1n:
Can anyone else replicate this lag dng the same as on video?I wonder if it's just your phone that's behaving this way....
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
Never had lag like this even when streaming music through Bluetooth and playing GBA emulators at the same time. And I'm still on 5.0.2. I suggest a factory reset. And then as you install apps, one at a time, see if certain ones are bogging down the device.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hajyihia:
i feel like google apps are making the device slower....the chrome, google play music......coincidence??
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbutter:
Funny, that is exactly what I expect. In fact, I expected it to perform even better because of the spec bump.

I don't actually have that many apps, and the apps that I do have are not many. I will try a factory reset later, but having to test this out one app at a time is incredibly time consuming and should not be necessary. I've never had such a problem with any of my previous devices. My Note 3 is actually running really well still.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android-Desire:
He has MANY apps running and not clearing them will lag up the phone, ignore the troll guys.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbutter:
That's actually offensive. I didn't spend over $800 on this phone so I can complain about it being laggy. I spent this amount because it was supposed to be the most powerful, and hence should not have this problem.

Constantly ending apps every time you want to use your phone for something is ridiculous. The phone should be able to manage this properly, like many other phones can. I can deal with slight lag or stuttering, but to be rendered completely unresponsive is unacceptable.

By the way, I just removed all apps and reran the same scenario, with the same result.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robismyname:
Honestly I never experienced this lag and im sure neither have 60% of the members here. Take it back to where you bought it and ask for a new one... you might of got a defective batch.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crzykiller:
God damn this is hilarious... It has absolutely nothing to do with the phone but how many freaking apps you have open and running in the background, your battery life probably sucks balls too. Try Greenify from the play store and go look at the DHA Tweaks in the original development forum.

edit: if that doesn't work, your phones defective.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oliv3:
Obviously there's something wrong with your phone. No one's using their phone with this kind of lag, and just shrugs it off.

Get it replaced... Why make a thread just crying about it.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
[MENTION=3528351]djbutter[/MENTION] okay I tested for myself using the fitbit app to track my run and streaming music from Google play music and there IS LAG. The fitbit app seems to use an ungodly amount of RAM on this phone when the fitbit tracking is going on and it will slow the phone to a crawl with the more apps you use/open. I've experienced no lag otherwise.

Sorry if my previous post came off as harsh. IMO this needs to be fixed by fitbit as the app uses too many resources on the S6.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbutter:
This is actually great news, because it implies that it's app-specific, and I don't have a defective unit which others have suggested (not-so-politely). Thanks for testing it out.

I also feel like Google Play Music, Hangouts, and/or Bluetooth are messing with my phone's performance.

It's not that my phone is consistently lagging, it just seems to take a huge performance hit when I'm suddenly doing multiple things at once.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
Google play music hasn't been so bad for me, but I've disabled a lot of other Google apps because they can be resource hungry. Chrome is particularly bad.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barondebxl:
Me neither, I have never experienced this with my S6, it is smooth as butter
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeyinid:
There are several threads about this already. Samsung really dropped the ball making the jump to arm64. Apps that shouldn't use much memory are, and Google apps are the biggest issue. I have had issues with Swiftkey since I got the S6, so much so that I've stopped using it. I get the impression you're not into rooting really, forgive me if I'm wrong, but there are bandaid solutions for some of these issues floating around. I've personally been messing with the memory management on this phone for months and while we haven't found a real fix, depending on your useage some of the things can help. Recently I realized the reason the phone comes to a screeching halt like you're showing is because the swap is full. Once the swap gets full it hammers performance. I've been making swap bigger which really seems to help in conjunction with other various tweaks. Like I said, no fix but definitely helps.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbutter:
I used to root and flash back in the day, but these days I'm just happy with not tinkering.

I've disabled a ton of apps, and it's helped, but unfortunately things still fall apart when I'm performing multiple actions at once (e.g. responding to multiple texts in various messaging apps, while listening to music via BT and browsing).

When I'm just doing one thing, it flies.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
I would take fitbit off your phone and try this again. I have a very similar setup to this except I use Nova launcher, stream via Deezer to my car, and use multiple messaging apps. No lag like this at all.

I think fitbit is crippling this phone, the M8 had a special chip that interacted with fitbit which the S6 does not have.

I would also maybe avoid google apps which are always a bit laggy
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djbutter:
I'm a huge user of Google services, so that would not be possible. That goes for fitbit as well.

I did do a factory reset, and the immense lag I've been experiencing when performing various multitasking activities seems to have disappeared... for now.

The 'track run' feature in fitbit is still a hot mess, but I'm cautiously optimistic overall.
