The problem started yesterday. After rebooting my phone all my apps came back with process faults. I factory reset my phone without success. So i decided to update from darky's 9.3 to his 9.4 extreme edition.
Still had problems so went back to a 2.2 stock rom before going back to darkys 9.3. The stock app problem had been fixed but could not install any apps.
This is where things went drastically wrong. I went into recovery mode to find the sd and ext sd card unmounted. i tried mounting to get this error
'E : Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(device or resource busy) Error mounting SDCARD:!
Neither can I mount usb storage.
Is there any fix to this or am i going to have to take my fallen pride into a samsung repair shop?
Thanks in advance

Been having problems since flashing a Rogers stock Froyo Kernel yesterday. I made it back to stock but found I couldn't upgrade to any 2.2 ROMs, it seems that the ext4 lagfix was still activated on the Internal SD card and this prevented me from remounting anything on it or formatting. I am now stuck in recovery mode, although it is possible to get into download mode as well. I have access to CWM, and I've been farting around with wiping caches, formatting partitions, etc.
I have attempted everything I can think of to try to flash back to stock, including the Captivate tookbox 2.6 for Rogers, and the Odin 1-Click with the Master Clear option. Nothing seems to work. I get the classic message:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E: copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA
The real problem seems to be that there is no update.zip on the internal sd card for me to use as a backup to flash back to stock. I am having no luck with the two software packages above, but it seems that if I could push my own backed-up update.zip I made a few days ago to the internal sd, I could get past this.
I need help. Please give me some advice.
Call off the dogs- after I installed the driver package that was included with Odin 1-Click I managed to get a master clear and a flash to the AT&T stock.
I must have spent 3 hours installing different driver packages today.
This has worked for me, depending on how bad the problem is...
Assuming the phone will boot, this will format the internal SD card.

Thanks, I appreciate the reply. I couldn't get past recovery mode, so I couldn't access the dialer. I ended up getting the ODIN 1-click to flash the AT&T stock ROM, then I flashed back to my native Rogers Eclair.
Just in the process of getting Stock Froyo back on the handset.
A little information is a dangerous thing...
Today my phone randomly rebooted when idle and didn't get past the talon loading screen when running Dlev 4.2 rom. it was working fine for 1.5 weeks or so on that rom and had made no changes other than activating voodoo lagfix yesterday. No matter what I did (Factory reset, clear cache...etc) it still wouldn't get past the talon loading screen so I reinstalled Dlev 4.2. Same problem, won't get past the kernel loading screen. So I flashed stock JL1 (rogers) with odin and my phone booted, but then had tonnes of fc's and eventually just reboot into 3e recovery and had a bunch of red errors (can't mount a bunch of stuff). It gave me the option to format sd card, so I chose that but it told me sd card was not found. I then thought to 1 click JF6, but after the at&t screen the phone just goes to black screen with lights on. I can get into 2e recovery mode still but no download mode with key combo's. I believe the sd card needs to be reformatted. I have a jig coming someday soon, ordered it 2 weeks ago, but I was wondering if there is anything I can try till it arrives to revive my phone. I tried adb commands from recovery but it doesn't detect my phone. My computer says installing drivers (CDC Abstract control Model (ACM)) but nevers finishes installing them. Thanks for you help.
I was able to get into download mode by typing adb reboot download when phone was booting. I flashed one of the speedmod kernels I had on my computer and I can boot into CWM Recovery now. I formatted sdcard and reflashed JL1 but still no boot. What else can I try???
Edit: I think my internal memory is damaged or something. When I boot into 3E recovery I get the following errors.
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(I/O error)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD:
Your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot action.
E:copy_dbdata_media: format SDCARD:
Formatting SDCARD:...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD:

Edit 2:
I have been doing research and have found out that I need to fix my partitions at /dev/block/mmcblk0p1. I pushed parted to my phone and used adb shell to run it following directions of a website, but when I try to make a new filesystem by typing parted /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 mlfs ext2 I get an error Error: /dev/block/mmcblk0p1: unrecognized disk lable. I don't know linux at all. Can anyone help please.
Hi everybody
I was on the newest DarkyRom version on my SGS GT-I9000.
But last week I got the SGSII. So i wanted to flash the SGS back to stock to sell it.
A tutorial told me to flash JPU first and then update later to newer versions.
I did this and the phone was back to the original firmware (everything worked fine).
But when I tried to boot it this morning it got stuck in a bootloop.
So I tried to flash JPU again. But this didn't help.
I got error messages on first startup like:
Code:
update media. please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(No such file or directory)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD:
your storage is not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
copy default media content failed
Since then I have tried to flash many other firmwares. Stuff between 2.1 and 2.3.6.
But nothing helped. The same error on first startup after flash and then bootloop.
Someone told me to flash CWM via ODIN an see if the SDCard was mounted.
Turned out it's not. When I try mounting the SDCard in the CWM recovery mode I get the following:
Code:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(I/O error)
Error mounting SDCARD:!
Is there any way to get the phone back to life or is the internal SD card just broken and do I have to send the phone in?
Greets
no one got an idea?
I guess not... :S
I have the exact same problem. But I didn't even tinker with my phone. I started crashing daily and now it doesn't even boot anymore.
My Cappy is having some serious issues! It used to run slimROM 4.2 and untill the night that it started illuminating the ceiling of my room with the ATT bootloader logo. I woke up checked it out and... nothing would run. System kept rebooting without end. As I am a somewhat knowledgeable flasher got into recovery mode and flashed my rom again. It went to the ATT bootloaders then it showed the slimROM logo as if it were to load it and then the screen went off. Dead!
I tried Heimdall SamsungCaptivate-SGHi897-UCKB2-Rooted-One-Click without any success.
Last, I tried returning it to stock using ODIN and this is the error message that I get
--Copying media files...
E:failed to mount /sdcard (no such file or directory
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount /sdcard your storage not prepared yet. Please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.

That's it. I think my /sdcard is dead. Are there any other possibilities and maybe a chance to bring my phone back to life? Please help!!!
I will be generous to anyone who can help.

When you tried Heimdall, did you use a different USB port?
Also, is that quote from Odin/Heimdall? If so, you might wanna try other GB versions (Heimdall UCKF1 worked for me before when Odin KK4 didn't).
Another thing, do you have a external sd? If so, try booting with it in.

I the quote is from Odin. What is extremely weird is that right after i posted this. My phone booted into GB. I then proceeded to see what my storage was doing and it turns out that I am somehow (I am not sure how this happened) i am running of my External SD card. My phone still can't see any internal SD card. Any suggestions?
Should i try to use ROM manager and flash recovery and try a ROM from there?
I am still worried that my Internal SD is not working.

***First of all, don't touch ROM Manager, it doesn't do well with the Captivate.
Custom recovery is flashed through kernels with Odin 1.18 (or 1.17). You simply grab the .tar file and put it in the PDA slot while you phone is in download mode. (On stock GB, you'll want Corn kernel)
Now my guess is that your external sd needs reformat. Backup w/e is on it (same with your internal if you can access it from your pc) and full format it to FAT32. If that alone doesn't fix it, wipe your internal as well.
I am trying to get my Son's Captivate back up and running.. while it has no phone service, he uses it all day long. It was running Cyanogen Mod 10 .. he sat it down to eat.. when he came back the screen was black with the buttons lit up and no response.
He did a battery pull to restart it and it came back looping Error to mount /SDcard and a count down.
I got it into recovery and am not able to mount /data or /emmc. And it is failing to install a ROM from zip.
I tried using "I897UCKK4 Stock, Wipe, with options to install Bootloaders, Param,and Re-partition-One-Click" and it runs through the process.. flashing Kernal, Modem, FactoryFS, DBDataFS and CACHE successfully.. then the device reboots and goes through a few things on screen, and fails on Formatting /data ( E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 ) but everything else says success. Hitting "reboot system now" says that it cant copy the log because of failure to mount /emmc.. then reboots to the same recovery and does the copy of Media and Appling Multi-CSC (their spelling mistake not mine) over again.
Flashing back to a CWM 6 recovery and still no mounting of /data or /emmc. And it just boots right into the recovery.
I tried --repartition with Heimdall and it said it uploaded the S1JE4.pit fine. Same things..
So is there anything I can to to test the internal storage to KNOW if it is faulty or is there anything else I can do?
I would really like to get this thing working again for my little dude.. he is so sad as all heck to not have his Android Buddy. :crying:
Seems likely internal sd may be dead, particularly if someone ran ICS on it at some point. If you have an external sd card, at least 8GB, this thread may help-

you could use cm10.1 instead of the ICS rom mentioned in the thread.
