Fixed in a while I explain
My solution
With Odim 1.3, pit 512,
in my case JH2 I9000T GT
But for Europe JM8
Mark Re-partition, phone EFS clear and Phone bootloader Update
Then start
This process started well
JPM Process
Then uncheck re-partition, phone EFSclear and Phone Bootloader Update
JPM Pit 803 and firm JPM

Is it normal for T model, or you just use weird and dangerous settings for fun?
Wiping EFS can lead to test-imei number and broken product code. Be sure you haver a backup of that folder before wiping that.
criskelo... I tried this and I didn't get anywhere :/
I had the same issue and it took me 2 hours to resolve (with a lot of pain, lol).
I've simply flashed the XWJM8 version using odin 1.3, no pit file and HENCE no repartition ticked.
It then booted to recovery console, because there was another error (can't remember which one cause I was too excited).
Anyway I did a wipe, cash clear and reformat SD card at the menu and let it boot.
After that I have flashed the latest version XXJPY also without PartitionInformation Table. (PIT). Then all the wipe and format stuff again.
I have now to go from scratch to setup anything again, but hey, at least my phone is alive again.
Some additional info. I also had that connection symbol on the screen with exclamation mark and triangle....so I thought I was done (due to trials with pit 512 which hung), but after removing battery and some trials I was able to enter download mode again....
Why happened that? I DON'T KNOW! I simply wanted to reflash the XXJPY stock rom, this time with pit512 and it lead to the topic of this thread!!!
This su**ed a lot, I didn't even modify something before!!!!
So: Less is even more! Don't fiddle with EFS and bootloader options it worked for me even without a pit!
Thanks to sardor for the initial idea, the XWJM8 seems to be a fixing rom for that when used properly, anyway to load a pit without to tick repartition is not a useful setting!
Well I was a long time reader at this great forum, IMHO the best regarding phone stuff, because there is the most useful knowledge shared.
I hope my first post will save other phones as well from sending it to repair.
Thanks I'm happy again..(let's see how long it'll last..lol...)
bricked my samsung galaxys and recoverd it
Hi I had exact same problem I totally bricked my i9000 Australian Optus version
I used
I9000DTJG4 firmware Australian Optus
With pit 512
And odin3 v1.3
Got all the files from
samfirmware . com / WEBPROTECT - i9000 . htm
Had to sign up but it’s free
However following criskelo's advice I unchecked the re partion box in odin
Even though the site above tells u to check it
And it worked
Thanks for everyone’s help on this thread.
Without you I would have had an expensive paper waited
Also the reason I got here in the first place as because I messed around with lag fix in clockwork recovery when I don’t know anything about it.
I was lucky this time but it’s really not worth playing around with things you doing understand.

I was messing with Darky's Rom which alway cause problems for me and found myself in the same situation as the first post.
What worked for me.
JM8 (2 files = code to PDA - Modem to PHONE) + Repartition + 512pit
after reset different error so goto download mode again then:
JPM + 803pit
Default OS reconfigures, Thank Fook
Awesome, thanks buddy! I have spent too much time trying to fix this phone and it all totally pays off now!
Here is the fix for the Bell firmware:
Background info: I orginally tried the Lagfix and bricked my phone, this is how I finally fixed it...
1. Using Odin v1.82
Put Phone in download mode
Use PDA: I9000UGJH2
Use Phone: Modem.bin
(both files came from samfirmware, I9000UGJH2 download)
Use: 512.pit(also from samfirmware at the bottom of the i9000 page)
Check Re-Partition, Auto-reboot, F. reset time, phone EFS clear and Phone bootloader update. I know everyone above says don't but I tried their way first and it didn't work, I would recommend you do try their way first and if no results try mine.
2. Using Odin v1.82
Put Phone in download mode
Use PDA: I9000UGJL2
Use 803.pit
Check only Auto-reboot, F. reset time
Good luck! I hope you do your happy dance like I did!!

you saved my phone after me corrupting internal SD! just did my victory dance though hands still shaking a bit
Just thought I would add to what got my phone back running again after having the Can't mount DBDATA error. It's a bell I9000M.
Used Odin 1.3 , Flashed Darky's resurection per his instructions pulled battery once complete, went back into download mode and flashed stock JL2 with Odin , re-partition un-checked and no Pit file and after that my phone was running again.
You can find Darky's Resurection Here!
Can not find the link for the JL2 stock rom but it's in the general section somewhere.
the xxjpu version worked for me
tlick repartition
add 512 pit
tick and add pda
tick and add modem
tick and add csc
go to download mode
connect usb
press start
Need help with Fascinate
Hey guys, I've read the above posts but frankly it's above my skill.
Some how I ended up with the same message that the OP got.
Can someone walk me through the steps to completely fix my phone and get it back to bone stock?
I'm not familiar with PIT and other files. I need someone to hold me hand on this one...

Hi there,
I am having issues the same way. I am unable to do something. Can some explain me the procedure how to do it.
From where can i get the files.
Please help me out
ive tried fixing this for the past 2weeks but no luck..
If anyone could help me with this im willing to give bounty.
Flashed with different roms but no luck..sir hardcore told me to flash dxjpa which is suitable rom for my country but no luck again.
Basically the problem is i can do a hard/factory/cmw mode reset of my galaxy s but when i reboot it, apps everything are still there in my internal sd..
And its bombarding the phone with lots of force closing apps.
Im try the cmw mode of reformating the system but no luck unmounting it gives me an error..
Ive tried to reformat thou the data/cache and internal sd it gives me the success but when i reboot the phone it hangs in the galaxy s logo..
Im also trying to repartition the internal sd but no luck also in cmw mode.
My bluetooth is also force closing
i cant use it any more.
I cant do/put update.zip in intermal sd..
Everytime i put it using masstorage and applying it in cmw mode it vanishes.
Apps that i delete come back whenever i reboot.
But the phone is still working,manage to apply hardcores speedmod kernel..
Any help will be very much appreciated..and a bounty ofcoures.
50$....i think the problem is the partition of internal sd anf the 2gig rom for apps..whenever im trying to install new app first 15mins its running ok..after that it force closes.

Well you need to flash a new firmware with odin.
Do use pit 512 and for tick re-partition.
Then go into recovery when the phone start. It should do that once after the flash.
When the phone reboot pull the battery fast.
Then put it back in and go to recovery mode.
Now format the internal sdcard . Do a factory reset.
Do wipe the catch and format the internal sdcard again.
Now reboot.
You have lost all of your data, but all should work.

Thanks again.
sir its still the same followed your instruction.
when i format internal sd it says:
formating internal sd
updating media:
updating media finished:
it didnt say that it is formated..
why is that?
when it reboots all apps that must not be there are still intact
but cannot be open as it force closes..
im wondering also why is my bluebooth not functioning it force closes also.
dont know what to do any more..
not sure if this would help you .. but i was getting the infamous "cant mount /dev/block/stl11" errors everywhere ..
to fix the partitions i flashed my phone with the PDA and Modem files from the JM8 firmware and the CSC file from JPU along with the 512.pit via Odin with reflash ticked.. you could always try that

Did you install a new firmware with odin and did repartition?
You need a full firmware for that.
You cant have same error or same file left if you did that.

What was your original firmware? Try flashing that and following DamianGTO's instructions before mixing and matching random pda/modem/csc files from various firmwares.

thanks in advance.
If you do What we tell you to do then it will work.
Before you mess with different stuff you need to flash a full firmware. That's to clean up the phone and make it work. Format etc...

May i ask what is the best stock eclair firmware to use?
As i undrstand you want to formate the internal sd card but you cant, if you have root explorer installed then check the permission of one of the folder in sd card it might be read only. You can check thus through adb but i dont know it. If it is read only than changd it to write as well than try to delete folder.

i think ive messed root explorer last time..im trying to put file inside the system its a .so file..
Il gonna check.
I cant be able to root this time cause when i put update.zip in internal sd and go to recovery mode it vanishes and cant be applied.
Ithink the internal becomes write protected??
Why not try things we say?
You don't follow them. Its clear now that you don't.
**Using my own JPY kernel, z4mod, 339MB Ram and ext2 filesystem**
ok here it is..
flash to stock rom dxjf4 partition ticked..
flash again diff rom pda without partition dxjpa..in recovery mode reboot pull batery fast and put it back. recovery mode format internal sd/ factory reset/wipe date cache and format internal sd again..then reboot..
ok done..
waiting...still apps are force closing..try factory reset.. still apps are there..
flash again to stock rom same procedure..then to jm8 pda (trying diff pda's)
after flashing e: cant mount dev/block/j11o
cant flash with jm8 pda that error occurs.
ive been using the stock rom for the meantime..dont know what to do anymore.
cant reformat my internal sd card..
apps are keep coming back.
Hello,
Bit of a droid noob here. I forced my Galaxy S to update to 2.2.1 today through Kies. It wouldn't work at first so I had to erase the M off of the model number in the registry to make it work (I think thats where my problem started).
Now my phone just reboots at the samsung screen or if it is plugged into USB it shows a star on the screen. I am able to get into download mode and use Odin, but even after flashing with a stock ROM from samfirmwares it still boot loops.
Help.
Thanks.
Oh, I think I am in the wrong forum. Q and A would be more appropriate. Sorry...
Okay, been messing around a bit more. Tried to load a different 2.2.1 ROM and now it turns on and flashes the Galaxy S screen and turns off. Not sure if it is getting better or worse.
did you had any lagfix activated while updating? if so, try to a factory reset through recovery mode.
No, I had no mods. It was a stock Bell rom updated through Kies. I managed to boot into recovery mode and it said something about can't mount sd card.

I've just encountered this problem myself (I guess misery loves company Lets see if we can resolve this.
What was the 2.2.1 ROM that you flashed that allowed you to get back into recovery?
What's the specific error msg you're getting when you're in recovery?
Well, I have flashed so many ROMs today trying to fix it, what I can tell you is this: JL2 gives the best results. It gets to the S screen with JL2. I think JL2 lets you get to recovery mode, if not then JH2. Speedmod seems to format the sdcard but doesn't seem to fix the issue.
I am getting this error from recovery mode:
E:Can't/b mount /devlock/stl10
Some people say they have fixed this with various flashes and reflashes and repartition combos. I have had no luck so far.
Apparently there is a way to restore the partiation, but I am not there yet.
Oh, the 2.2.1 ROM I tried was JPU_Complete_Flash_by_Virnik
Most likely the internal SD is dead and you'll have to send the phone in for repairs...
Mine just died (again) too. Same problem.
I just got my i9000m back from repair today... Updated to the official Bell for fun and then tried to go back to jh2 for recovery 2e and now my phone continuously loops at the first GalaxyS screen. I tried to flash many other versions with same results... Tried odin 1.7 and that didn't help. Tried various combinations of re-partition and different versions and nothing is working. Any idea?
WOW! I am back up and running. This appears to be a data partition issue.
Can't say exactly what I did but here it goes. I may have done these things more than once today so you may have to run through this procedure a couple of times.
- Flashed JH2 with repartition and pit 512. (Stuck in bootloop)
- Flashed JL2 with Repartition and pit 512. (Boot to S Screen now)
- Flashed with SpeedMod 12
- Boot to recovery mode
- Format every partition
- Flash to JH2 with repartion and 512 pit. (Back to boot loop)
**** Heres where it was different***
- Flash to JL2 without repartion or pit
Booted up and working.
I know, sounds sketchy, but I must have reflashed my phone with 10 different firmwares today.
After I got it booted up I flashed it with Darky's 7.6 ROM. It gave an error at first about the data parittion but it repaired itself after running lagfix and changing to ext partition.
I may recomend to flash with Darky 7.6 and apply lagfix to rebuild the partitions and see if it fixes this issue right away.
P.S. I was using Odin 1.7 all day and switched to 1.3 in the end. I was using 1.3 when I got it working. Just thought I would add that.

I know, sounds sketchy, but I must have reflashed my phone with 10 different firmwares today.
After I got it booted up I flashed it with Darky's 7.6 ROM. It gave an error at first about the data parittion but it repaired itself after running lagfix and changing to ext partition.
I may recomend to flash with Darky 7.6 and apply lagfix to rebuild the partitions and see if it fixes this issue right away.

When flashing with Odin do you have checked Repartition? Do that and it should work.

WOW! I am back up and running. This appears to be a data partition issue.
Can't say exactly what I did but here it goes. I may have done these things more than once today so you may have to run through this procedure a couple of times.
- Flashed JH2 with repartition and pit 512. (Stuck in bootloop)
- Flashed JL2 with Repartition and pit 512. (Boot to S Screen now)
- Flashed with SpeedMod 12
- Boot to recovery mode
- Format every partition
- Flash to JH2 with repartion and 512 pit. (Back to boot loop)
**** Heres where it was different***
- Flash to JL2 without repartion or pit

This works! You are THE man!
I messed up my Bell SGS playing with odin.
Lost the 3 button options and ended up hacking a jig to get it into DL mode. done
Goal - a Functioning phone. Now what?
Thinking I should odin the I9000M_JL2_JL2_JL2_JL2_UG_BMC.tar.
But with or without repartition?
Can I use any 512pit?
I think repartitioning is where i messed it up.
Now all of this happened because I wanted seeARMS.JL2.v0.4 but couldn't update with the <3e> recovery mode.
Knowing that seeArms is my second (first?) goal, is there a different firmware I should flash something other than BMC to give me back update functions, but stable to resuscitate my phone?
There's ages of material here and I don't want brick my phone or waste time, I've done enough of that by myself.. now I'm looking for some expert opinion.
thanks
Best option for bell users is darkys rom. For further info check darky's rom info

So the stock JL2 that I have is a .tar and .dll
I have a 512.pit from a beta 2.2 , are they different?
Did I mention boot problems too? Hanging @ Samsung, no splash ani.
I guess the .pit means yes on repartition?
Thanks
Just use the stock firmware and .pit from samfirmware.com and when Odin is open do not tick off repartirion... just put the .pit in it's spot and the tar in th's PDA part and flash

Recovery back but can't mount /dev/block/stl10
Decided to try Darkys v9.2 Resurrection.. no go.
Flashed JL2 and got recovery back but crash after animation.
3e recovery shows me Can't mount /dev/block/stl10.
some threads say dead, others make ref. to old builds.
any current ideas?
thanks

Download a full firmware for your model and locale (with dbdata in it) and flash it with repartition with the pit proposed (samfirmware.com) then, I believe, you will have a full functioning phone. If everything is ok, then flash ... whatever.
It's Alive! - Can't mount /dev/block/stl10 fixed.
Hey All,
Got it all working again.
Repaired: Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
the fix: A full firmware (pda/csc/phone/pit) flash w/repartition.
Flashed w/repartition - I9000XXJP2.7p. (the only FULL firmware I had on-hand)
on reboot the system does a media check and was successful in reformatting and mounting the internal SD.
Phone didn't like the ROM and still logo of death, but..
A quick Jig into Download Mode..
Flashed I9000UGJL2_homebinary_add_param.tar with no repartition
(can't remember if I used .pit).
And Success!! my phone is alive and running 2.2
Thanks for the help, and hopefully this thread can help others.
Everyone should build/get a jig
There is nothing more awesome than being able to force download your non-booting phone.
I could not have done this repair without one.

The only problem now is it's back to stock...
oh phone, how can I crash you next?
thanks again everybody!

Yes, do this. For repartition to work the .tar has to have dbdata.rfs, otherwise it won't work.
Then flash a speedmod kernel with odin for root/cwm and flash you're favourite custom rom
unlock&root owngrade or speedmod kernel? suggestions?
Forgot to mention that all this started after I got the phone back from Bell service after SD card failure.
I know mod methods changed with the latest firmware, as I had used the update.zip method that is now unavailable.
My phone went in unlocked and rooted
the phone came back re-locked (old code doesn't work? wtf?),
and it was unrooted w/3e recovery
Can the phone unlock code change?
Will downgrading to 2.1 make unlocking easier?
or is unlocking just as simple after a speedmod kernel with odin for root/cwm
Which is better?
downgrade the firmware to 2.1 and root using the old update.zip method or speedmod kernel?
Which kernel? (link please )
cheers

All you did was flash UGJL2 with no repartition and it brought your phone back?

You know what....I've been trying various combinations of CSC/MODEM/PIT and everything to get this phone running again.
All I did was select a FULL UGJL2, and thats IT. NO pit, NO repartition, and it worked
The best way to revive your I9000m is to first flash JPC (a three file ROM) with 512 PIT and repartition ticked. The phone will still be in a boot loop. Then flash the JL2 PDA without repartition or PIT. The best way to go back to stock! Has always worked for me. I9000m's are not the same as other I9000's and do not flash repartition and the PDA in the same flash! Good luck!
Hi, i have just updated my galaxy s to the latest gingerbread rom using odin 1.7 and all was ok with that bit. But when the phone rebooted i got an error saying UIDs on the system are inconsistant, you need to wip your data partiton or your device will be unstable. i click the im feeling lucky button and it goes in to gmail process stopped unexpectedly force close, my uploads is the same as well. and if i try to run any app its does the same. Even the setup wizard forces close when i try and set it up the it goes in to a reboot loop. i have tried to factory reset by tiping in the number on the dail pad and going in to recovery mode all to no avail. i have tried reflashin with older roms eg 2.1 2.2 but this makes it worse. has anyone got any clues to help me????
Thanks
Flash stock rom Eclair 2.1 with Odin Pit 512 and repartition checked .

if you have done your phone lagfix and ext4, please firstly remove it.

But just incase how can i tell if i have?
Dont know if this helps but
I have managed to get Dark Core Recovery - By Ficeto on my phone i have formatted /system /data /cache /sdvard /sd-ext Although it looks like its done bugger all. i have done a wipe/factory reset wipe cache but no avail...also wiped Dalvik repartitioned SD for 512mb and a swap file of 256mb. also fixed permissions. I could really do with a hand as i feel naked with out my phone lol....
Here is a 3 file 2.1 rom if you want to try it.
It's DTJG4 which is an Australian eclair build, but may get you out of trouble.
Flash it with a 512 pit and re-partition as previously suggested.

I'll upload again.. I'll post a link in a few minutes.
You can try this one. It's a self extracting 7zip file, so that's why it's an .exe.

GT_I9000_XWJS7_XXJPY_XEEJS1

And it just vibrates...
Int sd card
Also I have noticed even if i wipe my internal SD Card or fomat it or delete files from it re boot the hone and the all come back again... how the hell do i format it if its locked?????
The JS7 rom you flashed, was it 3 files and did you flash with re-partition?

Yeah 3 file and the 512 pit file and re-partition ticked.. But all my files remain on the Internal SD card which is why i think im getting the uid errors as it seems to be write protected or sumfin and i cant wipe / format / delete anything from it...
Can you give it a full format (Not Quick) from within Windows?

What about EFS.....
Odin 1.7 is the wrong flashing program for the i9000 you should be using v1.0, 1.3 or 1.8.
The numerous versions of odin are version specific and you need to be using the correct one for your phone type.
