Sorry I know this has been posted a thousand times but I've tried everythig. I have a SGT Sprint p100. It's hung on the Samsung screen and the E drive isn't recognized and won't mount.
I have used Odin3 and have added the following files:
SPH-P100.E17.SECURE.REV07-FULL.TAR.MD5
SPH-P100.PIT
DBDATA.RFS.TAR
EVERYTHING SAYS PASSED. I HAVE WIPED THE CACHE AND DONE THE FACTORY RESET BEFORE AND AFTER ODIN AND STILL THE MESSAGE BELOW.
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblkop1
E:Failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)
and so on and so on
PLEASE HELP...I DON'T THINK I AM THAT FAR OFF FROM GETTING IT FIXED HAVE BEEN AT IT FOR TWO DAYS NOW AND CANT FIGURE IT OUT.
ANY INSIGHT WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
From the error message, it seems like either it didn't correctly re partition, Note the error failing to mount /cache, ( no such file or directory), or it just It fails to mount internal sdcard for some other reasons.
Can you re-try the flash with pit file again just in case?
if everything else fails, look at this post (I've never tried this method myself, so I can not guarantee it will work, or if you have the same problem with them):

thanks. I have repartitioned several times, but I will the method you posted and see if that works.
Try the same method without dbdata.tar

Dear all, I tried now for two full days to resurrect my i9000, with no success so far. I hope one of you can give me a hint where my problem/error lies.
A bit of background: The phone was bought without a contract (no branding) and with android 2.2 (or 2.1?) installed. Afterwards I upgraded to ginger bread with kies, all worked fine for months.
The day before yesterday (after I installed and updated some apps) the phone was quite slow, so I wanted to reboot it. The booting was looped for a couple of times, and as it made it finally to boot, it was almost not reacting anymore. I uninstalled the apps I recently installed and then the phone froze. Now the phone wasn't able to exit the boot loop anymore. I searched this and other forums and learned about recovery mode, download mode, flashing and bootloaders and all these things. And indeed, in the recovery mode, there was an error:
Code:
E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount /sdcard
your storage not prepared yet, please UI menu for format and reboot actions
Media files copy failed.
Finally I convinced myself, that simply - for what ever reason - android needs to be reinstalled. Long story short: I tried different versions (from 2.1 to 2.3.6) with bootloader, with 1 or 3 files, with different versions of Odin3 (1.7, 1.82, 1.85), with or without repartitioning (pit files 214 [EDIT:I meant 512!] and 803, the later succeded as well, but gave me error messages in the recovery mode). All with the same outcome: Now the phone boots up to the blinking S logo ("splash screen"?), and stays there forever (2h+), while the S is not stuck, but blinks and turns b/w in circles. I let it do this over the last night (connected to my laptop, so it would not decharge) and the next morning it was off, so I guess at some point after 2 hrs it gave up. I found a couple of comparable posts, but my situation I found no where... (not really a boot "loop", neither gets it stuck, but can't complete booting plus wiping and/or flashing, no matter which version, seems not to help).
If any one kept on reading until here and knows something that might help (and/or that I have overlooked so far) I would be more than grateful for a hint!
Thanks a lot!
try flashing the 2.3.5 JVT Firmware with 512.pit and repart. I do not know any firmware which uses those strange .pit files you used(except one or two very old Fimrwares which are using the 803.pit file).. If the phone doesn't boot after doing that you can try formatting your SD in recovery. According to that Errormessage you get in Recovery it could be possible that something is wrong with yout internal Memory. Formatting the internal Memory could solve your problem. After doing both your Galaxy might boot again. If not it could be an Hardwareissue too. In this case just flash the latest official Firmware and send it to samsung and let them repair ist Attantion: All Files like pictures, videos or whatever on your Internal-Memory will be deleted if you format your internal memory!(that apps are deleted after flashing schould be known by everyone )

use the tutorial to boot to stock firmware, this should put your phone back in business....
no success
Thank you two for your fast answer!
Unfortunately it didn't do the trick
As I wrote 214 I meant the "normal" 512 pit file (d'oh!), sorry for that, orangerot.
I noticed something strange: I left the phone turned off for some hours today, and after the reboot there was again the boot loop I had in the very beginning (until the white Logo), and going to recovery mode there was an error:
Code:
E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)
E:copy_dbdata_media: Can't mount /sdcard
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI men
u for format and reboot actions.
Media files copy failed.
I tried a wipe that led me to the following:
Code:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
E:format_volume rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Formatting /dbdata...
Formatting /cache...
Deleting Meta Data
Data wipe failed.
asking google for that I found a thread (in german) on handy-faq.de (samsung_i9000_galaxy_s_forum/225311-geraet_gewiped_bootschleife), in which the contributors came to the conclusion the only way would be (and was in the end) the samsung repair service.
Interesting is, that after a reboot I was again at the same position as before (glowing S) and no error message in the recovery mode. From this starting point I tried again to flash (with JVT, 512.pit through Odin3 v1.85, as you suggested), with no visible change of behaviour: still booting only until the glowing S, no error in recovery mode, wiping doesn't help but finishes without error.
If anyone has some additional idea I would appreciate to hear about, otherwise I guess I try to flash an official Android version (any idea how to find out which is the most recent official version updatable from kies?), and bring it to the samsung partner.
Thanks a lot!
I have had athat happen before, try flashing darky's resurrection edition via odin. It worked for me.
Here: http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/odin-darkys-resurrection-edition-10-1-gt-i9000-only-for-now.3237/
still not recovered
Thank you, B1-P,
but unfortunately it didn't work. Odin quitted with green "pass" and "succeed", but after the first reboot afterwards it ended in recovery mode with following errors:
Code:
Formatting /data...
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

Ahh man...
Okay, there are a couple of more things you can do,
1. Try darky resurrection rom V9.2 (I think your issues maybe due to some lagfix problems/mounting filesystem incorrectly etc.) Try the 9.2 in odin, make sure that you have checked the "Repartition" as ON and have a PDA and a PIT file selected.
http://www.darkyrom.com/community/index.php?threads/odin-rom-darkys-resurrection-edition-9-2.895/
2. And if the Darky rom 9.2 does not work, then this thread is your best shot (you will need at least some linux experience for this to be helpful):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845708
If all that doesn't work, then I don't know what will.... I'm sorry.. I don't know what else you could do. Try a repair centre as a last resort I guess.
Did you try to format your internal sd? Wiping and formatting are two diffrent things.. And in your logs I only see that you are wiping your data.. So just try formatting your internal sd. i think you will find it under "mounts and storages" in cwm. I've read before that this may help to solve this problem. if this does not help it could be that your internal sd is broken. In this case you have to send it to the samsung repairservice. but make sure you flash the official JVI firmware to remove the clockworkmod, so they cannot see that you have flashed your mobile cause if the recognize it they may refuse tu repair your mobile
Try darky resurrection rom V9.2

After I installed Darky's resurrection 10.1 I had troubles to get in recovery mode... and loads of errors the few times I managed... last attempts didn't bring me to the modified but the "original" recovery menu. I think I don't dare to try Darky's ROM 9.2 after this experience. And for messing around with EXT4 and Linux I don't feel ready at all, thanks though for the link! Now I am back on a stock version and again the old picture.
Did you try to format your internal sd?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I thought when I use the pit file and check the repartition box it will reformat the internal sd?? If not... this cwm... I didn't quite get what exactly it is. Isn't it an android app? How can I use it, when I am not able to boot?
And then: is JVI and JV1 the same? If not where is the difference?
Thanks again! (And sorry if my questions are silly)
No, repart only reparts the system partition off the phone. the internal and external SD are not going to be formatted while reparting. If it would behave like that all your photos, videos, folders and so one would have been deleted. Apps are deleted because they are saved on the system-partition.
CWM is a recovery which has some more features than the stockrecovery. You get it with flashing a CustomRom(they usually all have CWM) or an CustomKernel(e.g. CF-Root, Semaphore etc.).
You can acces CWM by holding Vol-up+homebutton+powerbutton at boot and release them when the Galaxy GT-I9000 screen appears. Its just like getting into the Downloadmode but instead of pressing vol- you have to press vol+. Once you are in CWM you navigate to mounts and storages(with vol-up/vol-down you can go up/down and with the powerbutton you select an option) and format your internal sd there. After that everything may be fine again If not you have to send it to the samsung-repair-service after flashing the official JVI-firmware to delete CWM and so on. JVI and JV1 are not the same.. JVI ist the last official firmware(2.3.3) while JV1 is a leaked, unoffical firmware. So you have to flash JVI befor sending you phone to samsung while JVI ist the last official firmware.
back to life
Dear orangerot, dear B-1P
thanks for your patience!
Then I knew the cwm, I just didn't know it was called that way.
last attempts didn't bring me to the modified but the "original" recovery menu.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So the "modified" recovery menu I talked about was the cwm. In the last attempt with Darky's Rom I couldn't get back to that cwm... maybe I released the 3 buttons at the wrong time? Don't know.
However, in the mean time I gave the phone to a service partner of Samsung, and they sent it to Samsung. Today I got it back and everything works again. Unfortunately they didn't give any details on what they did (except for new installation of the OS, which didn't help for me...).
So for me this problem is solved (for now...)
Cheers!
I'm really hoping someone can help me. I've been searching the forums for about 2 days now and there are similar issues, but not with my model of tab.
I have the GT-P1000M
It is stuck on the Samsung screen.
I can flash the gt-p1000_mr.pit and it just does the same thing. (Goes to Samsung logo)
When I go into the Recovery mode, I get the following:
--Verfing internal MMC block...
E:internal mmc : open fail
Internal MMC checksum verify failed.
#Manual Mode#
--Appling Multi-CSC...
Installing Multi-CSC

Successfully applied multi-CSC.
I can wipe the cache partition with no errors.
When I try to wipe data/factory reset, I get the following:
--Wiping data...
Formatting /data..
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Formatting /dbdata...
Formatting /cache...
Data wipe complete.
But when I reboot, it goes right back to the Samsung screen. After selecting reboot, I get the following:
Failed to format /data (No such file or directory)
E:copy_log_file_to_data can't mount /data
Any advice would be great. I'm new to all this, as I inherited the tab from my hubby when he bought a Transformer pad.
Thanks

could u explain what u did to get to this stage? This seems like a serious problem. Your tab just failed to mount to the internal sdcard. Think of it a computer failing to read the hard drive.

Galaxy Tab 7 SPH-P100 stuck at Samsung logo
I had the same thing happen. Maildroid crashed hard. Tried to get to shutdown, but had to use Power button reset. Rebooted into boot-loop at glowing Samsung logo screen.
I've tried Wipe data/Factory reset.
I've tried Odin reload. Odin thinks it repartitions and restarts. Flashing new image bombs with write failure.
Heimdall fails with usb(something) error -12.
I'm starting to think that the internal flash is bad. If it's not a BGA chip I would consider replacing the part (yes, I can do that sort of thing at home
I'm seriously unhappy that the hardware may be bunged at 1.5 years old.

I have this Samsung Galaxy tab GT-p1000 whose applications are getting error message of "force close", I tried to delete all the installed applications, restored factory settings but It doesnt seem to uninstall all the applications, So I decided to
upgrade it from Gingerbread 2.3.6 to ICS after installing it I got an error message of "Encryption Unsuccessful", So tried resetting it, rebooting, wiping factory settings, wiping cache but nothing happened, I even removed the sdcard before rebooting it but still I got the same error message.
I got frustrated and made a stupid mistake, I formatted everything thru recovery mode, format /data, format /sdcard, format /system and all. Yes every possible format. Here comes the problem when I rebooted the system, I only got the "Galaxy Tab, Samsung" screen. I can't enter recovery mode anymore, I can still enter download mode but my pc won't recognize it, so Odin can't recognize it too. What should I do now? HEEEELPPPP pleassseeeee :crying:
If Odin can't recognise it, use a new PC.
Many have done so, even one last week.

same comment here as in there.
It is either the partition is screwed up or the NAND chip is bad.
If you did Odin with PIT file and repartition ticked, and didn't come back alive like the other forumer there, then your internal NAND chip is bad.
There are several threads dealing with how to use external SD only and on damaged internal SD.
