Hello! Like it says in the title I have a problem with rooting. All I did was to upgrade to official jelly bean. I searched for like 3 days continuously in French, German, English and all I have found was some info about what I should do. So I know that I have to flash a new CWM and that's probably why I can't flash ROMs. I get into Recovery mode, I select "apply update from external storage" and then it says with red : "E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)". I found another method, with adb, tried it and failed, it says can't read file or open it, I'm not sure. With odin I tried so much CWMs... I can't number them. None of them worked. So I'm asking you, I'm mad to upgrade my android, to flash cyanogenmod, and I can't. Please help!! And please tell me how I know what version of cwm I need? I mean it's from Baseband- I9100PXXLS8 or Build number-I9100PXXLSQ? Please help! And don't tell me to search please!

RULE 5. Create a thread or post a message only once.

Your duplicate posts have been deleted.

I'm sorry I didn't know I did this thread duplicated. Maybe I pushed post thread button two times. I'm sorry. About philz kernel I know it, I said I tried so many versions... none of them worked. So tell me how can I know the correct version? What I mean by that is I saw at philz kernel a code like xwlsp or xxlsj. How can I know the code for my phone? Thank you :)

Thanks I'll try to flash it when I come back to school. My baseband is I9100PXXLS8. I saw some cwms with xwls8. Is there a problem? There says is nothing if is xx or xw it doesn't matter. Is that so?

Look Peter, do what I did and read up on stuff for a week before you flash anything.Do you realise all the things that can go wrong with the phone.
It will be you that has a phone that doesnt work and how will that affect you?.
Hello. Last night I installed cwm for my phone. IT WORKED!! FINALLY!! Then I flashed the 10.1.3 RC2 CyanogenMod stable ROM and I was a bit scared because the android keyboard was failing continuously and I didn't know why. And then I remembered I flashed the 4.3 gapps. So I downloaded the gapps for 4.2.2 and now all works fine. No problem. SO HAPPY I FINALLY GOT A NEW ROM!! thank you to all guys that helped me. You could kick me out from the beginning but you were good with me i'm new here and i really apreciate that. Thank you!!

4.2.2? Why not 4.4.2 . It's much better :D
Bk up efs with ktool from playstore
Nandroid bk up. Make that in cwm recovery. These are a must for you to do tonight. :thumbup:
BTW its free to get ktool so don't skip backing up you're efs. Also take a COPY of that folder and put it on you're PC. Copy... Don't remove it or delete that folder.
