[Custom Recovery] Xionia Clockwork (CWMA v1.2518.6)

[vernotzy21]

Should I be giving credit to the you or the wild turkey?

Maybe the turkey I needed all the courage I could get that day but I restored power to my street I didn't plan for it but my neighbor lady was on O2 and she didn't have any reserve tanks

And drew I got total faith in your mad skillz

If only it were that simple... Trust me, I'm trying.

You know it's funny how things work out sometimes. Only three days ago, I said this ^

And now here we are, Amend scripting has been ported to CWMT Recovery.

It was definitely NOT a simple copy-paste, and it was extremely frustrating. But it's working, and working pretty damn well.

I am receiving this error

Can someone tell me what's invalid? :-\

That *looks* correct to me....

Try this:
mount -o remount,rw /system /system

mount -o remount,rw /system /system
mount: mounting /system on /system failed: Invalid argument

that *IS* correct.

are you booted into android when you are doing this?
do you have root access ? (a # sign in the shell before you begin?)

I see :

~ #

and adb shows correct device attached

List of devices attached
A1blahblahblah recovery

 

[JokerToker]

yes there is a

~ #

and adb lists device as

List of devices attached
Asomethingsomething recovery

 

[JokerToker]

could it be the rw or remount that is iffy here?

 

[eletendre84]

could it be the rw or remount that is iffy here?

no. the linux command is right. you are telling android to mount (read/write), what is at /dev/block/mtdblock5 to /system so you can flash it.

pure curiousity....do you have busy box installed?

 

[JokerToker]

not entirely sure if busybox is in there or not, someone brought me this phone to fix, they had purchased it and not knowing it had been rooted and rom'd they pressed the dreaded Factory Reset, and when you turn it on iit shows LG logo then black, and the adb says its in recovery mode. when I pulled the /system folder I do see busybox in /xbin is that what you mean?

Isn't he booted in recovery? He is showing: ~#.
Shouldn't he be booting in android and only have a #.

~ # reboot
reboot
reboot returned

exit

c:\Super1clik\ADB>adb reboot

c:\Super1clik\ADB>adb shell

Are you booted into android, you should be able to use your phone like normal? Apps, phone ect...! If you are not just reboot phone like normal, once booted into android then start adb shell.
You dont want to be booted into recovery. IF stock recovery showing 4 options, or custom like 6 options. If you are seeing anything like that reboot phone like normal!

Have you read any of my posts? The phone is bricked ... ie LG logo then black... adb reports device is in recovery. tried rebooting into android, results are just above your last post

Hot diggity dawg!! Finally got it... for those of you who are curious...
