[Q] bricked? can't mount sdcard

Hi All,
I have the same problem described in the old thread @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=807784
The thing is, The problem just "appeared", havn't flashed lately, out of the blue, the devices hung and from then on, have not been able to access. I was running DARKY 9.5 with his new kernel.
error started of being:
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 not prepared ye. Pleas use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
copy deault media content failed.
after flashing JPM8:
Code:
can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(no such file or directory)
E: copy default media: can't mount SDCARD:
copy default media failed.
E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid argument)
flashing JPM bring me back to square one. can't repartition (or push or anything using ADB). Tried everything google has to offer, but no luck...
my SGS has been acting very bricklike for 4 days...
Need help (and lots of it)
Thanks

@jim SGS I9000 8GB international
@zhuk7 I'm not able get that far, somehow lost my root, can't push parted, can't locate fdisk
bump......
Try flashing something else. An eclair rom would be a good place to start. Pit files with no repartition.
and I was under the impression JM8 is eclair...
I had similar problem and the solution was to flash a 3 file rom in odin(csc, pda, modem) with repartition.
which (exact) ROM?
so far i'm failing miserably with all roms, including some quite old ecairs - JFF & JFD
now tried almost all the 2.1-2.2 EU stock ROMS and no luck...
should I send to manufacturer?
SO FAR:
a)flash JM8 with 512 repartition,
b)flash JPM with no repartition
c)flash speedmod 500
now have an active android GUI, claiming the internal sdcard is "damaged"
from here, I have tried numerous fixes, with no luck yet...
Just to summarize:
I send to samsung (and is was a hassle... overseas) and they fixed it under warrenty...

Does your phone turn on? If so you could try mobile odin from the play store. I've never used it but it might work for you.

Try a different stock ROM any will do maybe even Darky's 10.2 That helped me when i had a similar issue.
If that fails the internal memory could have failed....
Nice!!!
finally installed Extraordinary 9.1. very smuth. amazing !!!
thanks for the help.
P.S. when trying to use the jig on sg i9000 it should be exactly 301k!!!!!!!!!!!!
i bought resistors for 300k. one was 309.1k and another 303.5k. it didnt worked!!!
i used 6 resistors in parallel to get 301.1k only then i got into download mod.

I had my Galaxy running on a costum ROM (I don't remember the name, it was something with Ario).
What to do? I'm quite lost..

Check My Android Solutions as to what may work for you
I had the same problem. My internal memory card was broken. I have received my repaired phone from Samsung service centre 2 days ago.

solutions for /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 or /mmcblk0p1 or /mmcblk0p0 are all never the same, it all depends on as to what caused the format failure .
You can try flashing the same ROM twice or more with different PIT ( i9000 has 3 PIT files)
But if the problem was caused by Lagfix, which you had failed to undo before a factory reset or upgrade...than your Internal SD card needs to be reformatted back to rfs.(vfat) ..which is why the stock ROM fails to solve the problem as your current format is in ext 4.
So nothing will work, IF your internal SD card had been converted to Ext 4 format, until you find a way to format it back to vfat.
For Korean version of Galaxy S , flashing an Eclair will solve all problems except this lagfix problem. So you can try the Eclair for i9000 at My Android Collections
Suggest you try to format your Internal SD card ( remove ext SD card and Sim Card) , before trying any ROMS

Well, how am I supposed to do that? My PC doesn't recognize my phone because it wont start. Therefore I can't format my internal SD.

i also wipe factorty and cache but its not booting up galaxy s logo shows then auto reboot again again will u please help how to instal it again thanks?
hi mate.
your problem is that you're trying to run a gingerbread rom, while you have an ICS/JB bootloader. the two use an entirely different partition scheme, so it's not finding the storage when it tries to access it. it seems to be a common occurrence, lots of people aren't aware that the two differ, when they're even aware that bootloaders exist.
if you look here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37836094&postcount=2 , you'll find the solution i gave someone else that had that problem the other day.
to succesfuly downgrade from cm10 to stock GB you have to flash 3-file ROM with pit512 and re-partition checked.

[Q] HELP! i have an infinite boot loop on my SGS

I tried installing a ROM by factory formatting and cache formatting in CWM and then installing the ROM on install zip from sd card. In 1 second after attempting to install this ROM, CWM crashed and i wasnt able to use CWM again. So after googling how to 'unbrick' my SGS i found some method - flashing a stock ROM using downloading mode (middle button, Volume down, power button) then using ODIN and firmware from Sammobile. I tried this and NOW i get a bootloop and in in Android system recovery <3e>
