problem sdcard gt i9000 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my device cant see internal storage at all
when i enter to recovery mode and try to format sdcard it say:
E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcb1k0)
(I/0 error)
error mounting /mnt/sdcard/!
please help my device can't run any program and i thing my sdcard need partition but how??
does it exist a tool to make sdcard partition? or how i can made partition for it
can i do dump for AP NAND? does this solve the problem? my device is international gtI9000 and sdcard is 16GB

1. Wrong Section of the forums
2. Is this a bell i9000m ?
3. If so you got no option aside from getting it repaired from samsung.

What have u done before it ?

does it exist a tool to make sdcard partition? or how i can made partition for it

What's up with you guys? Why the absurd title??
Ciao

can i do dump for AP NAND? does this solve the problem? my device is international gtI9000 and sdcard is 16GB

Isnt this the one fixed by either having the correct PIT file during repartition OR just reformatting the internal SD via 3e recovery ?

Did you try flashing via Odin using 512PIT and Re-partition ticked (preferably an Eclair firmware, some Froyo ones are incompatible with 512PIT+repartition if I'm not wrong)? If not, please do and see if it solves the problem.

i try all that and nothing fix my phone any other idea?
maybe i need a new boot?

Have you flashed JPM/JPA or any JP firmwares recently?

Please stop being a deuchebag and edit this thread's title to something intelligible.
Also read this: http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/a-reminder-from-the-xda-moderator-team/
As a solution to your problem, flash JM8 from over here http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i9000.htm with PIT 512 and repartition enabled.
Then you can flash whatever you want without repartition.
The end.

Moved to Q&A as not development.
Please choose a sensible title for your thread and post in the right place

thanks every one for their help but nothing work i still with the same problem
maybe the sdcard wasn't work any more so does it could be changed?

[Q] Reformatting the internal SD

Hey guys, I pulled off a derpwad and messed up my internal SD's partition.
I can enter the recovery mode and download mode, but when I go into recovery, it says
Code:
Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (No such file or directory)
And I was lurking around and found some threads and such. Most saying that they sent their phones back. That's not really an option for me since I've been fighting with Samsung for a bit trying to get them to take it back, but they said I've voided the warranty by unlocking the phone yadda yadda. I can give you the specifics if you want.
I've tried flashing with Odin 1.3, it helped a bit because initially, I couldn't get into recovery. I've tried a few different ROMs, so I won't post them. I couldn't find a stock Android 2.1 ROM, can someone give me a hand?
I think the main problem is reformatting the internal SD to have the appropriate partitions and file systems. I don't know how to do that. I can connect the USB to my computer and make use of adb. I'm pretty tech savvy, but not yet well versed in a linux enviornment.
tl;dr
Internal SD seems corrupted. How do I reformat it correctly?
Hello,
Did you try to flash all the 3 parts of the phone software with odin, with repartition enabled and a valid PIT file?
Download
- PIT 803 file
http://www.multiupload.com/6JX2LEUCTY
- I9000XWJS3 package from samfirmware.com (european for my case), PIT803 version
http://www.hotfile.com/dl/100247999/301207f/I9000_XEN_I9000XWJS3.rar.html
(The pwd is samfirmware.com)
In Odin, tick repartition, for PIT select the PIT 803 file (s1_odin_20100803.pit)
For PDA, choose I9000XWJS3-REV03-ALL-low-CL830616.tar.md5
For CSC, choose GT-I9000-CSC-XENJS3.tar.md5
For PHONE, choose MODEM_I9000XXJPY.tar.md5
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If all is OK your phone will reboot in recue after the flash and you will be able to format the internal sd from the rescue menu.

This is not corruption. It is simply a failure. There is no way to fix this other than to have the motherboard of the phone replaced.
Sorry to be the bearer or bad news, but hundreds have spent hours on it and not a single person was able to recover from the problem.
I have same problem than you, I fix it with I9000XXJPU version.

[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

I solved using Overcom GB safe stock procedure.

Thanks in advanced

[Q] heimdall: how can I flash movinand and emmc files?

Hey guys here is my story:
I flashed my captivate i896 with cyanogenmod cm7 then tried to flash back to stock with a 2.3.4 rom and checked repartition by mistake...after that the mmcblk partition that recognizes all the media in my cellphone was gone, so it doesn`t reads any sd (internal storage, movinand or external sds), it shows unavailable space with internal 16gb, external sds and 0.0k with internal storage.
I have tried to flash with many roms. The only one that could actually boot the phone was a recovery image of i897 speedmode with CWM, but still can recover the deleted partitions. I went into CWM recovery to try to mount or format them, but it doesn't let me.
In conclusion, I though that maybe flashing movinand and emmc files using heimdall could repair my cellphone, I been looking everywhere for information about flashing this files, but couldn't find the files or usufull information about it. I hope someone here can help me.
link to recovery image:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Captivate:_Full_Update_Guide
All you need to do is flash a stock ROM, from Odin or Heimdall, and a pit file. If you want to use Odin to repartition, it's as easy as loading a pit file in the pit slot, then check repartition. If you want to use Heimdall, you will need to be on Linux instead of windows. If you can use the Odin one click jf6 by designgears(not all phones can use it), it will repartition for you.
I already tried that with no luck, because after flashing back to stock the cellphone can't read the sd so it shows me the following message:
E:Failed to mount...
depending on the build number of your phone, which hopefully its an early build, this should work for you. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
Did it with no luck.
Hi guys, I keep looking everywhere but haven't g found a way to format the internal storage, no even a low level format

Any resolution to this.. I have the same issue and have tried numerous re-flashes with BL and w/o.. with PIT repartition and several different roms.. all to no avail.

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.

What do you mean by bootloader?

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...

[Help] Internal SD card failure

Well, I can say that I spent hours on hours trying to search for a solution with no luck,
The internal sd card of my Galaxy S GT-I9000 is corrupt.
I get E: format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 when im trying to format without sdcard inserted.
What I have managed to get after doing everything I can from my own knowlage and from the internet:
100% Working phone with ICS 4.0.3 only with 2 partitioned sd card(reiserfs and fat)
did everything in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31017954
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdMhYYdMB08
also flashed multi-csc firmware with pit(JVU/JVZ) after format everything(except /boot) through CWM with no luck.
main goal:
100% Working phone WITHOUT SD CARD
I thought maybe someone could tell me if this could be solved within software itself or only FLASH IC replacement?
got linux and windows systems so guides with commands involved wont be a problem.
THANK YOU!

Noone in this forum knows how to do that??
I need it working without sd card inserted if someone could help me
goto "settings" then "storage" then scroll down to bottom there's option to unmount and erase internal sdcard.
