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

Hoping a kind soul can help a total fool who should have left well alone!
I have a UK Samsung Galaxy S I9000 phone that was unlocked by the previous owner but still had all the "3" branding which I wanted to remove. I was already on ver 2.2 (updated via Kies) although I don't know the exact revision.
After lots of reading (obviously not enough) I followed a guide to reflash via Odin v1.7 to I9000XWJS3 using separate files for PIT (803), PDA, PHONE and CSC. The guide said to tick Re-partition on which might have been the cause of my problem.
Needless to say after the flash, I got the error message "Can't mount /dev/block/st110" and subsequent reboots just give me a black screen. I still had access to the download mode so I tried another posts solution to fix the black screen starting with a flash to I9000XXJPC with a 512 pit and re-partition again. This time the odin process started but no progress bar materialised. After a very long while I disconnected. Thankfully I can still enter the download mode but this time am hoping someone with more knowledge is willing to help me though the process of recovering my phone if its still possible.
Just looking for any stock UK firmware and then I will let Kies update from now on.
Many Thanks
[Solved]
For those that want a quick summary of what restored my phone. Flashing I9000XXJPC with a 512 pit clicking re-partition.

You still can use xxjpc, with repartition ticked. Many a times, odin will fail for no reasons. Try again, but make sure you close Kies completely.

Thanks g00ndu. You gave me the courage to re-run xxjpc again by confirming I was on the right track and this time it worked. Small donation on its way for helping me recover my phone.
I have one further question though. Can someone confirm if the I9000XXJPC firmware is for the UK? I hope to only use Kies from now on but it now says "the version of the device cannot be updated". I am using the latest version 2.0.0.11014_49.
Thanks again
Edit - Kies lists the current firmware version as PDA:JPC / PHONE:JPC / CSC:JPC (KOR). Something tells me I have the wrong country firmware. If anyone can provide a link to the correct one and the Odin settings I should use it would be greatly appreciated.

Still trying to get a solution to this and have noticed that my product code in Kies registry entry is GT-I9000HKDKOR. I am wondering if this is because I used a wrong CSC file?
Any directions would be very welcome.
Thanks

Go to www.samfirmware.com and grab the Europe/UK firmware. Get a 2.2.1. one. All the CSC, Phone, Modem files should be in the package.

Thanks snapper.fishes. I am now downloading I9000XXJPU (512.Pit) - hopefully this one is correct as some of the downloads for 2.2.1 show (803.Pit). As there are no instructions with this I assume I don't click re-partition. Is this correct?
Thanks for the help

This is almost soul destroying....
I ran the update "I9000XXJPU (512.Pit)" as mentioned above and it flashed successfully. I am now on 2.2.1
Re-plugged in the usb cable and no windows popup to view the sd contents and nothing in "My Computer". Kies recognises something has been plugged in but remains on "connecting" - the phone itself shows the usb graphic and "connected".
I then went into Settings -> About Phone and there is no USB Settings option.
And just to rub it in I typed in *2767*4387264636# as per the wiki guide on here to view the Product code and it's still on Korea GT-I9000HKDKOR.
Edit - Have now tried *#1234# and the phone says:
PDA: I9000XXJPU
PHONE: I9000XXJPU
CSC: I9000OXAJPU
Not even sure if this bit helps

In case this is a help to other novices like me with the wrong product code. I found the following info and you don't need to be rooted to run it:
E.g. Changing CSC to XEU: Note - this will only work if the multiCSC was used when firmware was flashed
Type *#272*IMEI# and select XEU to install. (to check IMEI: *#06#)
Phone will reset to the default setting (perform a backup beforehand if req)
XEU = UK's product code
As for the USB issue (no USB Settings menu option in About Phone), is this just a change in the 2.2.1 menus? I noticed a USB Settings menu in "Wireless and network" and they have changed how this works. Kies still refuses to connect to the phone, but maybe this is just Kies.
Thanks

Jpu firmware is broken with kies. I think from memory that jpy and onwards allows that connection.
Jpu wasn't considered a official firmware but it worked incredibly well.bar the kies problem.

Me Too!!
I'm getting the same error the op did.
What happened? I flashed CM7 and it worked fine. I then decided to do a restore with the backup I had made earlier with CWM, this is when **** went wrong. Couldn't boot up after this or get to recovery. Went into download mode and tried to reflash factory firmware. JL2 Andriod 2.2 for Bell Canada I9000. Says successful but just boots to 3e recovery with " /dev/block/st110, (Invalid argument), E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA: "
Below that it says: " your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot actions. copy default media content failed.
My biggest fear is the dreaded Int.SD card failure, the op gave me hope but same thing after every reflash.
Any suggestion?

I also have a Bell I9000M that did that. After attempting several combinations what ended up working for me was flashing JPU with 512.pit and repartition enabled, modem, PDA and CSC all selected in odin 1.3. That got me a working device. Then flashed JH2 to get recovery 2e back. Then flashed to the ROM I was originally on (Darky's 9.3). After that I flashed a CWM zip for the JL2 modem to get data back.

Also very important, for JH2 I did PDA only. No pit, no repartition.

Dude you totally saved my bacon. I was dreading the possibility of having to go to Bell. Totally worked, though coolirs media or something keeps force closing but at least the phone is working. Just gonna flash cm7 now since I have to start from scratch anyway.
Thanks again!

Thanks icejagans. Its a relief to know that this is just an incompatibiliy between kies and the JPU firmware. Do you know if there has been an official 2.2.1 firmware available via Kies for UK unbranded I9000s?
Edit - icejagans you're a star, the JPY update fixed the USB oddity I was having and even Kies now connects OK. I will mark this thread as solved.
Thanks for everyones help

[Q] What Rom do I use next?

So this is my previous thread question:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=982478
Basically I'm stuck on i9000XXJP1 and I cannot find a rom to flash to next, or the instructions on how to flash to the next rom. I do have Odin and the 512 pit file, but a lot of roms seem to send my phone into oblivion.
Here is the list or ROMS i've tried after being in XXJP1:
BUJS3
UGJG8
XXJPC
BVJJPD
UGJH2
UGJK3
XXJP2
UGJL2
I used these roms with Odin starting from XXJP1. If anyone knows how I'm supposed to go about this, please let me know. My phone is modemless right now. I can only use Wi-Fi and not my 3G...
PLEASE HELP!!!!

Have you added the csc or your 3g settings in Wirelees and network / mobile networks / Acces Point Names / ?

Try flashing back to JM1 and then back to what you prefer.
Enjoy your SGS.

If you have Wifi than your modem works , you don't have the apn settings set

You can always build your own in the rom kitchin choose your modem and CSC files .

OmerX: How would I go about setting up the APN? I go into the setting and theres nothing there. it's just blank. I have the option to create a new one, but how would I go about getting the information to create the access point?
Do I have to call my service provider?

MAKFOTO: where can I get JM1? and when I get it, do I use odin with 512 pit? repartition checked or unchecked?
sorry about the questions, this is just really frustrating after 2 days of not being able to use my phone properly and I don't want to mess it up.

i am in india..i unlocked galaxy tab(US tmobile) using odin with jme v4-full successfully...now it showing emergency calls only.
plz help me / how to use adb shell for modem

This actually happened to me on overcome gold, i had to re-flash the kernel every time i rebooted other wise the sim wouldn't work, i never solved the problem tho i just ended up flashing cm7.
All i can suggest is a wipe and fresh install of whateva rom you are using.

First-is your sim in correctly? Does it have voice and data? If ok here . . .
You need to flash a modem.bin file, then set the apn.
To flash a modem, put the tab in download mode, start odin on pc, then connect tab to pc. Click phone button, and select your modem. I would try the JPZ modem, but someone can suggest a better modem for your region/carrier.
APN settings are in the settings/wireless networks/access points. You will have to google "my carrier name apn settings" to get those. Sometimes you get lucky and the rom has the apn's in a database and the apn will be there when you check.

any indian modem
any indian modem is there

any indian member
any indian member is there ,help me

You already got your answer. Do you want me to come to India and flash it for you?

[Q] Flashed with Overcome "Jupiter" great but "Phone Info" incorrect

[Q] Flashed with Overcome "Jupiter" great but "Phone Info" incorrect
Hi all, I finally managed to restore my original IMEI from a backup thankfully after I flashed with "Overcome - Jupiter", everything else is great except for this,
My IMEI SV is now 05 instead of orig. 01.
I still get no connection to Optus eventhough I get full bars of service & the YES OPTUS network info on screen.
I also notice when I enter code - *#1234# - my info is as follows
PDA : P1000BGJP4
PHONE : I9000UGJK3
CSC : P1000OXAJQ1
I am running a Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000.
Why is it saying PHONE : I9000?
Can anyone assist
Thanks

why you don't try to re-stock with safe gingerbread v5 from samsung and then flash overcome ?
now i checked *#1234# and all are ok ? i think you need to restock with safe gingerbread that will wipe everything

Because the JK3 modem was origionally from a samsung i900.
You can make the baseband anything by flashing a different modem.bin with odin.
Go to the development section, and find the modem stickie, and take any modem you like, I'm using JPD but I'm probably going back to JK3 today.

So u recomend JK3? I am using the original modems that rotohammer used for the modem switch JL3 for the 2g+voice not sure wich one for the 3g, how can i change the modem to be used with modem switch. Thanks.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

First, you will only be able to use a different voice+EDGE modem. The Roto-3G modem can't be substituted.
Try out the modem for a few days in your area to see if it will be better than the current modem.
If you want to make it your permanent voice+EDGE modem, copy it to the modemswitch folder, rename the Roto-2G modem something else, like Roto-rooter, then rename your substitute modem Roto-2G.
You can easily reverse the process.

[Q] i9000 firmware on M110s

I accidentally flashed a i9000 firmware on the Korean Galaxy S(SHW-M110S), and everything works except phone network(no signal, no call or sms).
Does anyone know how I can go back to the M110S firmware?
Odin keeps failing
