Hello everyone!
When I wipe data it shows:
-- Wiping Data...
Formatting /data...
Formatting /cache...
Formatting /sd-ext...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
Data wipe complete.
Well, "E:format" thing never happened to me, and also and I don't know if it is because of this that when I install a rom (e.g: minicm7 - the one that I use) and when I reboot it, the status bar doesn't appear, besides, probably a relevant fact is that I had the ICSlayout patch on minicm7, but now the patch does not work and neither the default status bar, and just in case I deleted SystemUi.odex, but It doesn't work neither on minicm7 2.1.7 or 2.1.8
P.D: It shows me the same thing when I try to format /sd-ext
Thanks to everyone!
I have the same problem, but I'dont know what we can do

i have one big problem : i tried to reflash my phone above amestris 5.2 but i forgot to disable lagfix.. now i'm getting force close and cannot make a wipe data nor copy file on sd card.. so it's really frustrating.. i tried many times to flash with odin the jvt stock but the situation is worst in this way..
i would be very grateful for some help, so please if you have an idea i will apreciate..
here is a part of the report after trying to install jvt stock :
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount sdcard your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
and it says also "can't wipe data" and
"failed to mount data, invalid argument"
i already did a stock flash with repartition.. and after that it does not reboot, so i flashed cf root kernel then it reboots but the force closes made impossible any kind of use...
now it only says : "failed to mount data, invalid argument" and then the screen "galaxy s gt-i9000 comes and goes repeatedly...
so i returned to amestris 5.2 which is also full of force closes but at least usable.. so i tried to wipe all data through privacy, then it reboots and says :
"E:format _volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2"------- for formatting /data
"E:format _volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10"------- for formatting /dbdata
"E:format _volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11"------- for formatting /cache
and ""failed to mount data, invalid argument"
"Data wipe failed" ------ for deleting Meta Data
moreover, it seems that my internal sd card is not available because i cannot download nor put anything in it.... very sad
i already disabled the lagfix with speedmod, but no improvement... and the big problem is that i cannot paste any file like roms on my internal sd... i really have some regret to have flashed...
Hi, there are a couple of threads like this, sometimes flashing EZ base rom does the trick, search or the link is below under efs..
But there are a good few threads relating to similar matters, i think on page 3 of either general or questions there was one...
Edit: Here is the link click. I have not read the whole thread, so if flashing ez base does not work, or if you want to try this first read the first few and last few pages
Good luck. Let us know how it goes!
it's most kind of you to help me, but dear friend i actually already tried this method ... and it did not work in my case... thank you very much anyway, i apreciate.
thank you for showing me an interesting thread indicating that the problem must come from csc issue... i will investigate in this way
hey guys, i recently got my android and as far as i know, it seems like i cannot wipe data/factory reset after i made recovery

Any help would be appreciated it , i have the phone since 2 days
Hi guys, received a VZW sch-i800 from a friend and trying to get it to work. Any relevant searches have led me here, but no suggestions I've seen have worked so far. Tab is stuck in boot loop. I've flashed it with odin and heimdall (versions 1.1 to 1.3.2) with various files suggested, but everytime I get back into recovery mode and attempt to do a factory restore I get the following:
--Wiping data...
Formatting /data
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Formatting /dbdata...
Formatting /cache...
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
Data wipe complete.
E:failed to mount /preload (no such file or directory)
E:install_application_for_customer: Can't mount /preload
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions
and then a line of code telling me it can't mount cache.
I was able to get CWM recovery and the device would give me a different menu, but still the same issue with mounting cache. The instructions on CWM mentioned running a zip program from the sdcard, but no zip showed up in the directory when I looked on the device.
Any help greatly appreciated.
I have the same issue you reference. Did you ever figure out how to fix this? Thanks
I'm also having the same issue with my SCH-i800 after getting CM9.1 up and running. I'm thinking (hoping) it could have something to do with me updating CWM through Google Play (from v5.0.2.7 to v6.0.2).
got sch-i800 broke from someone we know

have you had any luck finding a fix for you Samsung table??
I have a Samsung Verizon SCH-I800 table 7inch and have tried many firmware flashs via hiemdall with changes but no success.
Looking for some more information on what I might be doing wrong or is the table broken?????
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace s5830 which had a problem with the wifi connection. As described on many forums the solution is to root the phone and then enter a code into the phone. It is needed to reload the wifi driver and is explained here:REMOVED.
Needless to say driver loading was unsuccessful after rooting and entering various code combinations. The phone has always been low on space and having recently found how useful link2sd was as well as the possibility to have a custom rom which increases performance I tried this route.
On this page they describe how this could be done on my phone: REMOVED.
I tried following the steps exactly, except that there was never an option to clear dalvic-cache (no advanced settings) on the phones recovery menu. Also, the phone needs the home+start combination to go into recovery, not volume(up)+home+start (which takes one to the quick download I think).
It seemed to go well except that on reboot it didn’t go out of the Samsung logo screen after about 20 minutes. I read that this is too long and thus took out the battery and restarted. This didn’t help and the loop continues.
I thus tried to restore the factory stock rom using odin but every time I set the phone to download mode (volume(down)+home+start) the yellow download text comes up but windows comes up with usb device not recognised. The usb drive worked well before this when I needed to upload the google apps and custom rom file to sdcard as required before upgrading to custom rom. I even tried kies software (also removed kies from tasks when trying odin again so as to not clash).
I also tried various other custom roms to see if this does the trick but every time I go into recovery mode I get the following screen text:
Android system recovery <3e> blablah….
Reboot system now.
Applying update from sdcard
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Test redbend
…….Green icon……
-- Appling Muti-CSC –
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
When I select “wipe data/factory reset” I get:
-- Wiping data…
Formatting /data…
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/stl13
Formatting /cache…
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/stl14
Data wipe complete.
When I select “wipe cache partition” I get:
-- Wiping cache…
Formatting /cache…
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/stl14
Cache wipe complete.
Rebooting goes into the same logo loop screen.
Now I am stuck with a phone which I suppose could be called a tile (not brick, its too small for that :silly. Any help would be much appreciated. I have been at it for more than a day...

when I can open the settings and give reformatted USB storage says successfully formatting but when I look at the files are still there, as if I try to delete from the pc delete but not works the files are still there.
the problem could be some encrypted file o partition? , is there any way to make a super wipe or something similar?
