My phone wont boot: Failed to mount system

Hi guys!
I was Rooting my phone, and everything was okay with my first steps, I got a Superuser app in my phone and the most important thing it was working. After I was looking for my new Rom for my phone, I thought the CyanogenMod 9.0.0-RC0-GalaxyICS-UNOFFICIAL-beta8 one should be fine.
I downloaded the beta 8 version, after I installed to my phone. The installation was succesful. But after my Phone wont boot.. I got these messages:
- Appling Multi-CSC --
E:failed to mount /system
(Invalid Argument)
Anyone..Pls Help me !

Your phone is a S5830i?
If is, there is the problem
Sent from my GT-S5830 using my hands

Your ace is 5830 right? And did you flash from stock recovery or from cwm? If you can get download mode then you will be able to reflash via Odin, find firmware on SamMobile.com

I did just this root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1603273
I am a f*ckin' idiot I should read more before I am doing this thing..

And Right, my Ace is GT-5830 (without any i)

Err you need clockworkmod
AOKP 4 LYF

Install clockwork mod recovery with Odin and reflash rom using cwm.

Its best that you install your stock rom and be happy with it. And yes, if u don't know, don't ever use rom manager. Its just not meant for galaxy ace.

right I flashed most of roms but now i am back to my custom stock rom with cm7 UI and i woudn't change it

Flash Stock rom again using Odin on PC...its actually not a brick..no need to worry
Sent from my GT-S5570 using Tapatalk 2

about unbrick
I saw those errors, you mini couldn't mount the system and the cache because the CM7 setup doesn't started to root your phone, and your phone wasn't be able to boot because of formatting your system(when you flash a new ROM your system is automatically formated). That was the explanation if you wanted to know, and don't worry, your phone didn't get bricked. I hard bricked my phone when accidentaly i selected a wrong cwm recovery from CWM manager.
To solve your program flash a stock rom or a custom if you want.

Galaxy mini UNBRICK
Hi,
I tried to make Flash ROM storage again using Odin on PC, but the program remains stuck at home after verification system, and the phone does not run anything (photo).

2- in recovery make a cleaning, format every thing
3- install custom rom
4- in recovery wipe everything again
5- Boot perfect
You save me!!!

[Q] Think I've made a mistake

what I did:
- installed cwm
- installed cm7
- installed a different version of cwm
- installed cm9
If I turn on my phone, it loads up CM9 (ICS copy) that I found on this forum and installed on my phone using cwm.
I think I have a problem, because if I press the power button > reboot > recovery mode. The screen turns off, but when turning back on, a screen flashes up saying Samsung-Gio and some model number that is not my phone (too quick to see the numbers). I then get into the recovery menu.
If I try to install a different ROM or a different version of cwm to the one currently installed I get the assert failed: getprop error. When trying to install a different cwm the errors are related to model numbers. When trying a different rom, I get errors to do with the name of the rom.
Have I installed the wrong version of cwm? I'm really unsure what to do.
I tried doing a restore using the cwm, but my phone would get stuck on the boot screen. I can reinstall CM9 no problem, and I can re install the second copy of cwm that I downloaded.
Ideally, I would like to run CM7, or do a complete reset to stock rom

Try flashing the CWM for Galaxy Ace. Find it in this forum.
I think that you flashed CWM for Gio lol
But that's interesting, the recovery for Gio works in Ace lol

forgive me, but when you say flash the cwm for galaxy ace. I assume you mean go into recovery mode -> install from sd card -> cwm.zip etc?
I've tried doing that and I get assert failedrop(..) errors related to model numbers. I'm guessing it's telling me that the cwm version is not suitable for my phone, because it thinks I have a gio. Funny how it didn't tell me that when I was installing the gio cwm using the galaxy ace cwm.

I think your phone just evolved from ace to gio. lol. Maybe you can now flash some roms that are for gio. But dont try it yet as you might hard brick ur ace. Maybe you can go to download mode and flash a stock rom via odin. We need some more solutions as this is a rare case.

The assert failure is easy to fix .
Just edit the updater-script .

Ok I altered the script, and managed to flash the correct version of cwm followed by CM7 without any errors.
Thanks for the help!

rooting gone horribly wrong

Hello people,
I have a problem, actually more then one.
I tried rooting my s2 mini from a guide, installed clockworkmod-5.0.2.8.tar via Odin and now i'm blocked in the recovery menu.
i know there were people here having the same problem, but... every time i reset i get gt-7500 instead of gt-6500 text, so i'm not sure but i think the phone got screwed up.
i've tried to flash cm version 10.1 for 6500 mini but after some text it says
e:error in /sdcard/ (the cm version name.zip)
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
so i tried to flash a 7500gt rom and the installation worked ( i know , lol.. but i was curious)
even so , i'm still blocked in cwm recovery
After more searches on the forum i found a "cwm-6.0.3.3-jena.tar" so i decided to flash this and get rid of that pesky cwn 7500 messing with the phone but.. odin is stuck at "setup connection"
i did try to remove battery for a while, change usb port, get newest odin, restart pc, sacrifice a chicken on a shrine, yet nothing worked...
any ideas? i'm a noob so... any help would be much appreciated.

First reflash Stock ROM via Odin (find it on SamMobile page and search for appropriate version for example if you have S6500D model than search for that model or if you have S6500 (without D/T/L) than search for that ROM). After installing ROM go back to download mode and flash latest CWM. And after this method you can flash CM10/CM10.1 or any other ROM you want.

I think you should try sacrificing a pig or sheep. Chicken's aren't so reliable !
Also you might try the old drown'em in a lake then burn them..but it's very hard to get the pig to drown.

[Q] Unable to install CM - installation aborted

I was trying to install CM11. Tried installing the zip from external memory and from an SD. Tried four different versions of CM but here's the message I always get:
This package is for "m3, m3xx, i9305, GT-I9305" devices:
this is a "m0"
E: Error in /sdcard/cm-11-20140117-NIGHTLY-i9305.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Could it be that Samsung Knox has something to do with this error? Root gone wrong? I am unable to check the root status since Knox is closing superSU.
I would appreciate all the help I can get.

Have you tried using Philz?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/orig-development/i93xx-philz-touch-t2002953
Make sure you click the i9305 button and check the file name before flashing it otherwise you will hardbrick your phone.

Use Phil recovery or CWM, twrp has been giving me problems since 2.6.0.0. I am currently using cwm touch, besides a few freezes (which was fixed by pulling the battery) I didnt get any errors or problems with it
