[Q] E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110 [Solved]

Hi, i am a newbie of Android. i flashed my Captivate to I9000ZSJPD, but found that the rotation has some problem. So, i tried to flashed other different rom many many times and try to fix up. I believe i make sometime wrong in between and bricked my phone... anyway, i tried to fix it by ADB in download mode
And now, it will going to recovery mode in opening...
and show:
_______________________________________________
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Cant's mount
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI me
nu for format and reboot actions
copy default media content failed
_______________________________________________
(I tried to flash I9000TGYJH1, I9000XXJP3, I9000XWJP6, I9000XXJPM, but still show it when starting)
i guess i need to format internal sd-card??? however, in this kernel,
The screen show "Enter: OK Key", but my Captivate seem no "OK Key", and all keys are not working except UP and DOWN....
if i reinstall "kernel-captivate-stock.tar.md5", it can be use "power key" to choice, but no format, or wipe data/factory rest option....
What should i do? Pls help me...

Try and Odin 1-click back to stock. Sounds like you might've had a lag-fix installed and you can't format the internal SDCard.
Odin should overwrite and format it starting you off fresh.
Either way.. your not totally screwed yet. Keep plugging away.

Thanks so much Avgjoegeek!, it's work again!

I am having the exact same problem on Rogers 896. I have tried the ODIN 1-click but it just seems to hang on either the Master Clear or the Rom flash. How long should it take? It seems fairly straightforward, am I missing something?

[Q] Samsung Galaxy "can't mount..."

Hello everybody,
first of all: congratulations for this helpful and amazing forum. I love reading and testing the roms which are offered here.
I just tried the Hybrid v 5.0 rom - the best i ever tested. Everything was smoothie and very harmonic.
Unfortunately it was not possible to write emails and to connect with Samsung Kies.
So i decided to use the known 2.3.4 version which works satisfiying.
To prepare the phone i made a wipe data/factory reset.
After reseting the phone shows me - when turned on and booting - the logo of Galaxian Kernel and the blue "loading beam" with the notice "is loading now."
But it doesnt quit loading.
The cwm shows me:
"E: can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/log]
E: can't mount /cache recovery/log
E: can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: unknown volume for path [cache/recovery/last_log]
....
"
Maybe some important datas are erased?
I really don't know what to do now.
Could you please give me some helpful advices (please use the easiest words because i'm no expert...) ?

For connecting kies you just have to install one patch, it will connect.
Regarding resetting, some files i deleted for utilizing space, which required for factory reset thats why you getting that.
let me explain why i delete that files, see when someone switch ROM ever developer want that user do fresh install but usualy people are lazy so they simply flash rom on other ROM, by deleting that files i conform that if someone want to change ROM then he had to flash first stock rom then other ROM so atleast he didnt got error or didnt able to claim that he coming from that ROM and so he getting this error.
btw for both issue why didnt u asked for patch, its easy task for me to make cwm for that and you able to connect kies and able to do factory reset.

Thank you very much for your fast answer.
i didn't thought about asking, sorry..
That's right. Before flashing your great rom i used the clear 2.3.4 firmware. I did the whole procedure as described here. Use a stock rom and than the other rom.
What could i do right now?
My phone doesn's start. "is loading now... " is written under the logo of Galaxian Kernel. The phone doesn't boot, isn't known by the PC, so i don't know what to do....

Boot to recovery and try wipe almost everything you can, factory reset, cache, dalvik-cache.
I remember one firmware gave me some errors about mounting and wiping stuff always fixed it.

I tried as you proposed but following message appears:
E: unknown volume for path [/data]
...
E: Unable process volume! Skipping...
Checking /cache...
Doesn't that mean that the necessary datas aren't there?
After wiping of all proposed things i tried to restart, but the blue beam under Galaxian still stops when it almost reached the end.

The main problem was Kies.
Phone couldn't be connected, so i couldn't fix the problem.
I just had to update the drivers so that the PC could connect to my little friend. Now it works
Thanks a lot for your help!!

Hi,
I've got the exact same problem.
Tried to flash Galaxian over Odin because my phone was in a boot loop. Then it just stuck when the Galaxian kernel "is now loading" screen appeared.
I can access Recovery and wiped data aswell as cache partition- then I just tried to flash Galaxian a second time with Odin but I have the same problem with the "is now loading" screen now.
Plus I updated Kies drivers.
What can I do? Im really not that experienced but I really NEED my phone!

[Q] Rogers AIO mount/st110

Hi Guys
Trying to go from Cyanogenmod 7 nightly back to stock
Been spending hours on this. Read through the AIO captivate thread and noted a few others with:
E: cant mount /dev/block/st110
(invalid argument)
E:Copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy default media content failed.
Stuck in this loop, wont go past this point with newish Rogers Captivate
Initially it was the ODIN version causing it for Rogers users but supposedly v1.0 should be OK and that's whats packed with the Rogers Version
But i can't get passed the mounting issue, things i've tried:
1. Just loading pre packaged PIT file with repartition ticked - Hangs
2. Loading pre packaged PIT and PDA with repartiton ticked - Can't mount
3. Loading pre packaged PIT and PDA part ticked / reboot / reset button / load just PDA part unticked - Can't mount
I've seen others load different PIT and JM files but they mostly seem to be for the AT&T version.
Anyone know which files i can try individually for rogers to get past this mounting issue?
cheers

there is a guide here on how to go back from cm7 on fascinate, maybe that would work for your solution.

Had a quick look in the Fascinate forum, didn't see anything going back from CM7 i was also under the impression to OS structure was different for the fascinate?
In the mean time i managed to load just the PIT file with repartition ticked, but still a no go.
I've tried wiping user data, cache's, factory reset all from the 3 button recovery and Nada
everything keeps coming back to:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy default media content failed.
Luckily i can still get into recovery and download, but only with the buttons.
EDIT: Sorry put question in wrong section and currentyl following this thread to see if it fixes it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=979133

You hear that ??? Thats my sign of relief
In all my reading around somehow i missed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=979133
Fixed it by flashing AT&T first and then the Rogers afterwards, worked like a charm.
Big thanks to the guys who provided the files, i couldn't thank you in the thread cos i don't have 10 post yet

[Q] Stuck on Samsung logo, recovery says can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Hi.
I'm trying to fix my boss' tab, SPH-P100 (Sprint).
I have tried all kinds of things and nearly bricked it (got the phone ! computer symbol, but it still accepted uploads, so I was OK).
Here's the issues:
- Continuous loop of Samsung logo on boot
- From Recovery screen, I performed a factory reset, but it didn't help - same logo loop
- In the Recovery screen, I get errors similar to the ones quoted above:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't open CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(No such file or directory)
I read all kinds of posts about simply flashing the stock ROM, and I found the ROM that was mentioned multiple times in these forums to be the right one for this tab (it did change the first boot animation, though...). The ROM I used is tab_sprint_noModem_20101226.tar inside Tab_Stock_-_No_Modem.rar.
I tried:
-ODIN with the stock ROM posted in this thread. It works, but it doesn't fix anything. I tried with and without the PIT file (one thread specifically warned NOT to use the PIT file, but in the end I tried it anyway - I think I did NOT hit Repartition, so it probably didn't do anything...).
-Heimdall doesn't seem to work at all for me. I found version 1.3.1, and the instructions in post 21 of the thread linked above don't seem to apply to this version. I finally figured out that I need to be in the FLASH tab, but I can't add files without the PIT file, it won't let me add the zImage file for recovery (or at least complains that there's no .bin file ending), and when I checked "Repartition", I got the error:
ERROR: Partition corresponding to -21 argument could not be located
Ending session...
Yes, I installed the drivers that came with Heimdall.
-Following other posts with very similar errors, I formatted the SD card in Windows using FAT32 - no change.
-I looked into another thread talking about parted, but I don't have root on that device, and I'm not sure what my boss would think about me rooting his pad... I also don't know enough to figure out which rooted ROMs would go with it - I'm scared enough with the "official stock rom" I'm using
I'm fairly tech savvy, know a little about Linux and have used adb to root my own phone, but otherwise a lot of the things I read here only make enough sense to me to follow the instructions and not get lost.
Maybe there's a different version of Heimdall that I should be using, or maybe I did something else wrong, but I'm sure I followed the instructions here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
(PS, I originally posted this at the end of the thread I mentioned here but did not get an answer - I'm sorry, I had not read the post about not asking questions in that forum, even if it was attached to another post where similar questions were asked and answered, so I'm moving this post here instead.)

Update:
Found a different Rom in this thread - same situation:
I can flash it, but nothing changes, and I still get the error message I showed. The main change is that this ROM is the first I have found that has the same Sprint boot animation that the tab originally had.
The new information is that once it resets after flashing, it briefly shows a few messages - one said that if failed to wipe the cache, and I think the others showed the same error about /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 but I can't be sure (tried to get video of it, but I was too slow, and it's blurred - I'll try again later to get the exact error messages).
Update 2:
Found yet another ROM in this thread and tried it, and this one doesn't seem to work at all with this tab (tried with and without pit/re-partitioning) - the boot fails and immediately boots into Recovery by itself and shows the following:
-- bootmode=7 from cmdline
E:failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

Will try to flash the other ROM again to try and get a precise look at its error message...
UPDATE 3:
Flashed the first ROM again - no error message, just the same Samsung logo cycle that freezes briefly and then starts over.
Flashed the second ROM again (the one that has the correct Spring animation), and this time I got the error messages on video.

Still hoping for ideas, but I think I'm at the end of what I can try...
Is it likely or possible that the internal memory got damaged?
I don't know exactly what my boss did to the tab, but he mentioned something about "the cold" meaning Minnesota winter cold - we had about 12 degrees last week, so maybe that's the cause...

Have you found and tried the EA24 stock flash tool?
Sent from my SPH-P100 using xda premium and ICS

Thanks for the reply!
If that's this file:
Sprint Galaxy Tab EA24 Flasher.zip
Then I have tried the ROM in it with Odin, but not the actual tool that came with it.
I'll see if I can get my boss to give me another shot with it (unless he's already returned it - I've had it for a few days already...).
Thanks!

has anyone found a solution to this? I am having the exact same issue...
Not sure why or how it happened everything was fine one day and next day wont go past logo and keeps rebooting.

Same problem here
My P100 started this problem last night, which was the first time it's been turned in in several days. It's fully stock, never had any rooting or flashing performed on it.
Booting into recovery mode shows failed mounts on everything it tries to do, and all the options for recovery also fail - except for "reboot system now", which does reboot it, but then it just sits on the pulsing Samsung logo endlessly. And I do mean endlessly, I let it go four hours last night, after which the battery ran out. Plugged it in after that, and it's right back to the same thing.
Every other thread I've found with this problem listed it as an after-effect of having attempted to flash a new ROM, but that is not the case with mine...
Hoping someone has the answer...
Thanks!

Same exact symptoms, and when I tried CM9 or other ICS ROMs this errors lead into the dreaded "Encryption Unsuccessful" bug.
At this point I'm just trying to get the device to boot consistently.

Did you try to do full restock (include bootloader and repartition)?
or you can try CM9 again with a fixed kernel by cdesai or jt. look at this conversation:

I'm on it ASAP, thanks a ton for that
Edit: If possible mind giving a link to that specific kernel (or flashable .zip with it)?

Do you have this on your screen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1193979&d=1342124106
If so, we're in the same boat
Btw, I used a full repartition and boot following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17817287&postcount=2
and same error occurs.

Bump in hopes of solving this issue.

My tab is basically bricked. I have this same issue after putting CM9 on it. Those errors consistently pop up. and thats it.
I guess its a paper weight now.

you may try flashing pit file and stock rom with micro SD inserted during flashing. that's what I did to my Samsung GT-I9003 when it failed to read the internal SD. At first, the camera may not work. Just root the device after flashing pit/ROM and do SD Swap Mod (external SD as internal SD).
Not sure if it's gonna work with Galaxy Tab. Give it a try. Hope this helps.

Hey guys, it appears JimRich is working on a solution for the CDMA (verizon and sprint) versions of thsi device, keep checking and be sure to let him know there are other people with this problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1789728

GalaxyTab Model SGH-T849

Hello,
A friend gave me his previously new Samsung galaxy tab for T-Mobile tablet, he said he's ordered a new nexus 7,and doesn't need the galaxy anymore. The problem with it is when I power it on, it goes through the booting process (the animated screen with music)..then it just 'stops' @ the Samsung logo, and just stays there. When I power it down and press the power key + the volume + key together, it goes to the 'recovery' screen. It's says the following:
--Verifying internal MMC block...
checksum confirmation -> check(0)
Not need checksum confirmation

# MANUAL MODE #
-- Updating application...
E:failed to mount /preload (No such file or directory)

copy application failed.
--Appling Multi-CSC...
Installing Multi-CSC
Can't access to '/system/csc/PHN/system/'.
Successfully applied multi-CSC.
Does all of this actually mean the tablet is 'un-usable', or can it somehow be re-loaded with 'stock' firmware ? The previous owner never rooted this tablet, or installed ClockWorkMod on it either. Hopefully....someone else has had this issue before.
Thanks,
David :crying:

Try to flash the SHW-M180S firmware...I m using it on my t849 and it works like charm
Just google "White Identity Final.tar" (4shared)
