[Q] FCs after removing Folders from sdcard - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi - plz help!
After Froyoupdate i had the stubid idee to remove folders from internal sdcard with the on board app. After rebooting the device, i had force closings on the fly. I flashed it again, recopied the folders to sdcard, made a factory reset and wiped the cash - nothing helped.
Any idee, hint???
Plz help!

re-flash with Odin again make sure to select REPARTITION so it will recreated what is necessary for the ROM

worked, thanx! flashed with odin 1.3 - pit 803 fw I9000XXJPC_I9000OXAJPC

[Q] "your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu....."

ok so i had stock 2.1 update 1 , gt i9000T , and flashed I9000XWJS8 europe , i ACCIDENTALLY (or accidentally used a pit file) checked re-partition and now this retarted recovery screen with "your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions"
"copy default media content failed"
funny thing though even tho i get looped into that screen i can just use speedmod k13E and bypass it and get a forceclose error on the welcome screen and everything works i think didnt really test it , under sd card stuff i have 0.00 gb on the bottom is that correct? but when i enter speedmod and go clockwork and back to recovery 3e it shows the same error. anyone know how to get rid of that bs? and i used odin 1.7
mmm... internal sd card.
what i would do, (not saying you have to do this) is download a firmware with three files and 512 PIT, check the re-partition box in odin, then after the successful flash. boot into recovery and format my sd card. along with data / cache / dalvik cache.
then rebooting should be back to normal. apply a restore and everything is normal
Hello!
I am in the same situation with a Galaxy Tab 7 aka gt_p1000... I wanted to reset the tablet. No way through normal os procedure ->
I did a super silly "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmblkp2" from local root terminal
/dev/mmcblkp2 was the device mounted in /data yahoo I now need to format the partition... so now I should mkfs /dev/mmcblkp2... but how?
I tried to install the latest for europe p1000
P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJPZ_HOME.tar
Used odin repartitioning applying pit and tar for pda section, repartitioning. (tried not repartitioning too)
I then applied dbdata.tar not repartitioning.
Completes but when rebooting gives this message as darkfangerex5
"your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions"
"copy default media content failed"
SO your suggestion is what I'd go for..
"download a firmware with three files and 512 PIT" on samfirmware I have no way of knowing if there is any similar rom config.
Can you point any rom to use? My tablet is stuck at the moment ((
@darkfangerex5
did you solve your problem and how?
Thanks for any help

SOLVED
I solved using Overcom GB safe stock procedure.

First off all my Galaxy I9000 was trying to software update via Kies, and it failed. The it would not start, but i managde to root it with a stock "VOD" rom.. But after a while i wantet to root it back to "Nordic Version"... But i could not do this, because the 3 button combo dont work on my Galaxy I9000 anymore.. :/ So there for i baought a USB JTAG, that puts it into download mode. So far, So good But when it is finished rooting, it fails to mount/unmount a bunch of stuff.. I have a picture of the screen, so that you guys can se what the problem is. I have tryed to root it with the same version that worked before, but it dont work. I have also tryed with som pit files, and so on... I give up, i need help with my Samsung Galaxy S - GT-i9000. Please help me out with this..
Do you know where i can download this firmware with three files? i have to pay for every Mb i download, so i cant afford to download the wrong one :/ If you know where i can download it, or if you have the link for this download that would be great!!
I need the one for Nordic Countries (Samsung Galaxy GT-i9000), and it must be able to install the right CSC... wich is "NEE"
Thanks in advanced

If your phone goes in to download mode you can flash, using Odin, a full stock firmware.
Have you ever update it since you've bought it?

I have a problem saying Cant Mount sdcard
I have the exact same problem as ysr84.. When i click "reboot system now" it just goes back into the boot loop.
Also.. My phone does go into download mode.. I have tried to flash using Odin3 but get the image as ysr84.. My phone then repeats the boot loop sequence..
PS. I do not know which firmware the phone started with, I have been flashing with JVR.
Since I bought the phone I have not tried to update it, I think there was no available update.. =/ not 100% sure..
Although when flashing with JVR I get the "Can't mount etc"

Hello, I have tried to flash my phone with 'any' firmware as I do not know which firmware my phone was on before.
It maybe a trouble with partition.
You can try to re-virgin your phone by flashing an old eclair (JM8/JM9) firmware always using odin with pit 512, re-partition flagged.
Be careful if using a copy with bootloader.
After that (if phone boot regurarly) you can get any gingerbread firmware, obviusly if you used in the previous step bootloader for eclair firmware, than you'll get a copy of gingerbread with it's bootloader.
But i'm not sure this helps you.
Hope you solve this, guy.

If you, using 7ZIP, extract the archive PDA.TAR.MD5, from a package firmware with 3 files+pit512, you'll find boot.bin and sbl.bin.
boot.bin --> primary bootloader
sbl.bin --> secondary bootloader
I hope you don't mean what does a bootloader with your question.....
You'll have to try flashing different ODIN or Heimdall Stock builds. Unfortunately, it may or may not fix your problem. Make sure you have a USB Download Jig just in case because you'll probably get times where it looks like it won't turn on and its the only way to get it back up and running. If all else fails and your warranty is still intact, use it. These are the early signs of internal SD Card failure. If warranty is not an option, you should be able to use the external as your primary partition and lose the internal completely. Its what I'm doing currently on my i9000M with the infamous broken internal SD Card. My internal SD Card is gone completely but everything is running under my External SD Card perfectly.
Okay, so it's included within the three files + pit. That's okay, I thought there was more then four files after the extraction.. I am downloading JM8... Will tell you how I get on.

Could you perhaps guide me on how to do so, I also think my internal SD CARD is also "buggered"..
Thanks in advance..
Woah WOAH WOAH HAHAHA!... Its alive... slightly! It turns on with the galaxy S logo and does some sort of sound thing.. =/ then turns off! But wahay!... Thanks Umberto1978..
I did this by first flashing JM8 PDA with repartition off...
Then flashing JM1 PDA PHONE AND CSC WITH 512 PIT...
on restart this happened..
Sure. This is what I did on my i9000M. Internal SD Card is useless so everything is now running off my External 8 GB microSD.
Go to this page and grab Heimdall and JVT build:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196179
Heimdall: http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/
JVT: http://www.multiupload.com/QMORULUWRQ
ODIN may work but I haven't tried it out myself and the packages above are made specifically for Heimdall. Set up Heimdall along with its specific drivers (included in Heimdall) to allow it to flash the phone.
- Make sure you have an external SD Card in your phone and make sure its formatted to FAT32.
- Flash the Heimdall JVT build with repartion checked using Heimdall
- Once it reboots, it'll try to format the SD Card but fail to do so and give you an error message. Ignore it and reboot the phone.
- It should now boot into Stock JVT firmware. If you go to your Storage under settings, you'll notice that Internal and External SD Card will be unavailable which is expected. You'll have 2 GB of internal storage for apps and whatever other things.
- You have two options here: 1) Continue using stock JVT; 2) Flash a custom ROM.
So let's say you want to flash a custom ROM like Cyanogenmod or MIUI. Fire up Heimdall again and go back into download mode. Flash the CF-Root for JVT kernel by Chainfire using Heimdall:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15188469&postcount=9
This will allows you to flash CWM files. You can now install Cyanogemod or whatever custom ROMs you like.
Switching the primary partitions:
Cyanogenmod has a setting where you can switch the primary partitions in Cyanogenmod settings.
Cyanogenmod Settings --> Application --> UNCHECK use internal storage --> Reboot. Your External SD Card will now be the primary partition.
For myself, I am currently running Galnet's MIUI ICS. It doesn't have the Cyanogenmod settings above. I instead use the vold.fstab trick to switch the two partitions. If you navigate to "system/etc" folder, you'll see a file called vold.fstab. Open it with Notepad++ or some other note editor. You'll see the following (this is only for Galnet's MIUI, other ROMs will have something similar. Just switch the partitions like below):
Code:
# internal sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard/external_sd auto [U]/devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0[/U]
# external sdcard
dev_mount emmc /mnt/sdcard 1 [U]/devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2[/U]
Switch the two underlined around and push the vold.fstab back into system/etc/ and put the correct permissions. Your external card will now be your primary partition and your internal SD card (unavailable) is the external.
So why switch the partitions? You don't necessarily have to but if you want your phone storage to be neat, do it as it changes your sdcard mounts around, etc. You'll also get back USB mounting functions which you can't do with the internal storage being unavailable and the primary partition.

Yeah unfortunately, you have the dreaded Galaxy S bootloop. Internal SD Card is probably toast. You can test this by removing the External SD Card and trying to boot. It most likely won't get as far. What happened is that ODIN flashed Android to your external card and trying to boot off it.
I have tried to use heimdall, and once it had loaded and the phone rebooted I did get the error message, however after ignoring this, once I had rebooted the phone it goes back into the boot loop.?

Have you tried reformatting your external SD Card? Just format it to FAT32 and then try again. Also, first boot may take a few minutes. You can verify that its booting fine by using logcat if you have ADB installed on your computer.
Flash jm9 mate, not jm8. Seems to resurrect better. With odin. Pit 512 with Repartition.

I am at work but will give this a shot... I also found a lot of people resolved problem by using JM8 with repartition and 512 pit
then with JPM & pit 803 with no repartition ticked...
Use Odin 1.3... 1.8 wont allow you to tick and untick with a repart file...
Will post results tonight... its been two days and i have tried everything...

ok, odin will normally get stuck for two reasons, 1) Kies interference, which mean Kies is running in the background or 2) the firmware is corrupt .
But I had lately experienced another, that is the PC, of a sudden I cannot flash on my PC as Odin gets stuck in the middle ( it was good all the time but one morning, it acted up, drove me nuts, till I switched to my laptop and it was good to go ) tried it again on my PC, gets stuck half way.. I still cannot find out the cause of this.
so do try with another Lap top or PC

i have tried to flash pit and kernels with diferent laptops but still it stuck at setup connection.
First and foremost, I think things would be easier if you use a recover system such as TWRP or CWM.
Because AFAIK, if you use the Samsung Recover system, there is no option of formatting your system.
Formatting your system will delete your current ROM,meaning your phone will not reboot until you have flashed a new ROM.
Can someone clarify that the Samsung Recovery System does not have option to format system? I could be giving the wrong info

[Q] Galaxy S wierd problems

Today a friend of mine asked me if I can install him a new ROM because he has problems with his phone ( force close on all applications )
I connected the phone to computer, started odin 1.7, ticked repartition, selected JVT files and pressed OK. The phone flashed JVT but when it rebooted it comed back to the same state as before ( same applications, same files on internal sd even the same launcher; the only thing changed was in the radio and the android version )
Even if I manualy delete something from internal sd-card after rebooting the phone the files are back on. I tried to wipe the data from cwm, install cm 10 - JVT, JPY but nothing, after the phone reboots all files are back on ( something like deep freeze )
Is there any way to fix this ?
After doing all 3 wipes, you can try it with format systems, sdcard data etc in cwm in mounts and storage. But be careful that your rom.zip will leave on the phone or you put it back to sd card with mount usb.....
or you can flash it again via odin.
btw did you used a 3part jvt via odin or a one par .tar? Because the 3part with 512pit and repartition usual wipe and format all on your phone...
I used JVT ( the one with 3 packages ) + 512 pit but still no go, as soon the phone reboots the internal sd-card fills with the same informations ( 4gb of pictures, 2 gb of music and programs ) and its back to his old state meaning daryroom + go launcher.
I tried from CWM to mount the sd-card, delete some data, copy cm 10 but at soon as i unmount sd-card the CM10 folders dissapears.
did you tried to format internal sd card in mounts an storage too?

I think I screwed my phone :(

I downloaded the HydracoreNirvana kernel and installed it through CWM.
Later I thought of installing the Ultimate N7000 XXLSZ JellyBean 4.1.2 v5.2 ROM but I read somewhere that the HydraCoreNirvana kernel was not supported so I download SpeedMod K5-1 and flashed it through odin. The phone Rebooted but it didn't restart. It only showed the "Samsung Galaxy Note" screen and won't turn on.
I managed to boot into recovery and install the SpeedMod kernel and then, as stated in the ROM's OP, I flashed it checking every step as I took.
ROM was installed successfully but after the Language selection screen it shows "Samsung SetupWizard has stopped". I tried reflashing the ROM but its still the same error.
How do I get past this??
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
boot into recovery... mounts and storage> format - system, data, cache and preload and install the rom again

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Okayy. That worked. Thanks a lot!
But the phone is lagging a lot now. Its even worse than before (And I haven't even installed any apps myself yet!). Any way to correct that problem?
install Titanium Backup and remove some of the apps that you dont use.. clear some space and it should become smooth.. also as you have just installed the rom, wait for media scanner to finish... give it a couple of hours
Okay.. One last question, I backed up my Messages and Call Logs through Titanium Backup to an .xml file but now when I want to restore it it doesn't give me the option to select from card/phone. It only shows "DB text editor" and "Dropbox". How do I fix this?
check if your internal and ext SD is detected properly. also check in TB preferences for the location of the backup folder
Yes, the Ext. card and the SD card are detected properly. I copied the backed up .xml files to the existing back up folder for TB but it still doesn't give me the option to restore from the card.
did you try going to preferences>backup folder location> detect
It says "No backup location was found" even though I've set a backup location!
may be try reinstalling TB
