Same thing happened to mine. What do you mean by full wipe?

Yes.
ODIN 1.7 (windows 7)
Checked Re-Partition
PIT file : P1_and_Hidden.pit
PDA : JME.tar (download from fus.samsung)
does it need csc and phone file or other pda file?

I would try using Roto-JMEv4 FULL. Use the P1_and_Hidden.pit and flash that together with repartition ON. That JME.tar I think is incomplete. My friend tried it before and it crapped out on him. After which, clear the cache and factory reset from Recovery mode to make sure everything is clean during boot.

Have you tried flashing Paul O'Brians rfs kernal and then flashing one of the other roms. As the kernal you have installed/flashed is ext 4 only. You need his rfs kernal to auto convert back to rfs. He links to it in his kernal post.
Hope this helps

the error is stating that while backing up recovery is not able to mount /system
try to mount /system before backing up rom. it can be mounted from mount and storage option
try to reflash latest cwm which is 5.0.2.8
try to wipe cache and dalvik cache before backing up
I think this problem is with stock ROM Or GB.
I was Flashing Emanom v5
I want to backup GB to restore when in need but, CWM v4 throws this errorBackup error
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
I Prepared:
1, Flashed GB through odin without SD mounted and android booted.(with sound in Samsung Logo)
2, Changed some Settings in Android
2a, Rebooted again with Mounted SD(to check if booting ssuccesfully with partitioned SD)
3, Now Rebooted to downloading mode
4, Flashed CMW Recovery v4
4a, Here Android succesfully booted, then I Rebooted in CWM.
5, In CWM, it show the error- E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
6, when I tried to backup it doesn't
7, Wiped data + Cache
8, Re-tried to backup but it throws that err again.
9, Now I booted Android it does'nt boots(show Samsung Logo but no Sound and boot loops)
So I left off and Flashed Emanom
with whole process skipping steps 5-9
Here With Emanom v5, in CWM Recovery
That Error Again but when I backed up successufully towing error again.
Now what Step I left or any wrong do I did.
If backup-ing GB is possible then we could just restore it to flash any custom ROM without flashing through Odin and requirement of computer.

Stock ROMs can't be backed up right ?
Even if you backed up, its not able to restore.

if it is backed up i think it can be restored easily.
but to make it compatible with stock rom the person(squad) who ported the recovery needed to make the recovery compatible with rfs partition but its compatible with ext partition

Stuck on boot

Hi,
I'm running Cyanogenmod Nightlies on my rooted I9305, but for some reason the device is stuck at boot (Since I woke up, only booting until the samsung logo).
I wasn't flashing a rom, so I don't think Cyanogenmod has anything to do with this.
However, I did install "Hide My Root" not that long ago (I was trying to bypass the rooted-protection from my ISP to watch television; it did not work though).
I was able to boot in recovery (ClockWorkMod v6.0.4.5) and performed a wipe data and wipe cache, but problem remains.
I wanted to do a restore, but found out there wasn't a backup on my external SD card (sdcard1).
Installing a new nightly ends up with this error: set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed. E: Error in /storage/sdcard1/cm-11-20140122-NIGHTLY-i9305.zip (Status 7) Installation aborted.
I did install ODIN, so maybe this could be a way to solve this.
I wanted to check if there was a backup on my internal memory (sdcard), but then I saw I was getting all kind of errors:
When starting Recovery:
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
When trying to restore from internal memory (sdcard):
E: Can't mount /sdcard
What can I do to fix this problem, considering I'm not sure I still have a backup (I know, rookie mistake!)?
No one knows what to do?
I will wait 24h

Rules we have to wait twenty four hours before replying to you .
So... anyone who knows how to fix this, or who can point me in the right direction? :fingers-crossed:
Possibly wiping cache in recovery will remove those errors shown in recovery but that will not resolve the bootloop. Have you tried a full wipe as there may be something corrupt in the data partition causing the bootloop
I see I forgot to mention it, but I already tried that (cache, dalvik and data). But to no avail.
When I tried to wipe dalvik cache, not much happened.
When wiping cache partition, I'm getting this error: Fomatting /cache | E: format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 | Cache wipe completed.
I also found the PIT file, and downloaded the stock ROM from Sammobile, but running ODIN failed.
Okay, seems like nobody knows the answer... guess I'll have to ship it to Samsung for repair.
Does anyone know a way to remove the "times I flashed a ROM"?
Triangle Away won't work, since I'm not able to boot properly...

Put in download mode then flash a stock rom over it...
@Raistlin1158: In the meantime I already tried to do that, but flashing (anything) with ODIN end up with a "FAIL".
Any clue what might be the problem?
Update your Odin, Also can you do a factory reset ?
@Raistlin1158: I've tried ODIN 3.07 and 3.09, both fail.
I am able to boot in recovery, and I performed a factory reset, but it didn't change anything.
Can you help? Please

you need to do a complete wipe before installing rom.
if you have done that try fixing permissions from recovery.

Try this
Download zip(you have already done that)
copy the zip to INTERNAL MEMORY
reboot to recovery
Format system
format cache
format dalvik cache
format data(not internal sd)
and then proceed with installation
would recommend to remove ext sd while doing the procedure
wish you luck:good:

Did you try both recoveries that you have? If it fails in TWRP, then try Philz or vice versa.

[Q] Reinstalling stock firmware - stuck in boot loop

I had my rooted Galaxy S running well on CyanogenMod 10.1, but wanted to unroot so as to use my bank's app. While flashing Android 2.3.6 with Odin 1.87, I got various error messages and the phone boot looped. I tried to follow the instructions here , but the stock ROM I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA.zip doesn't seem to be available now. Installing Semaphore CWM went OK, but of course the stock ROM has overwritten that. The stock recovery says:
E: failed to mount /dbdata (Invalid argument)
Copying media files...
E:failed to mount /dbdata (File exists)
E:cope_dbdatamedia:Can't mount /dbdata
your storage not prepared yet. Please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
What stock ROM should I use that will deal with this? Or is there another solution?

You should factory reset and wipe cache and dalvik cache partitions. If else fails, try flashing a different stock ROM.

Thanks guys. Meanwhile I managed to track down the XXJVU ROM and now have the phone up and running again on Cyanogenmod 10.2.1. But despite wiping cache and Dalvik cache, and factory resetting, it is still rooted! There is no Superuser app but #Superuser is still in the settings menu, and my bank's app reports that it won't work because the phone is rooted. Very odd. I suppose I'll have to try a different stock ROM, but why doesn't root disappear when flashing a stock ROM?
