P1000 stuck at boot after updating CM9 - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I think I (soft-)bricked my Galaxy Tab (P1000). I hope you can help me
About a month ago, my tablet had installed the Overcome Rom 4.1, based on Android 2.3.
I then decided to try CM9, so I installed one of the first CM9 official nightly builds. I think I installed it simply through the CMW Recovery.
Yesterday I found that the 9.0.0 stable build was out, so I downloaded it from get.cm.
I used Titanium Backup to backup important app data into the "internal sdcard".
Then I used ROM Manager to "install rom from sdcard", choosing to erase cache only (not data), and to create a nandroid backup of my current rom.
ROM Manager rebooted into CWM recovery and started to nandroid backup and to install the new rom.
But, sadly, at next reboot, the tablet was stuck at the samsung boot screen.
It was also impossible to enter recovery mode with the volume up key. The only working mode was the download mode (activated with volume down key)
Today I tried to flash the CWM boot image (downloaded from the Samsung Galaxy Tab (GSM): Full Update Guide" on CM website) using Odin.
Now I can access to CWM Recovery, but it shows a lot of errors.
E.g.:
entering CMW Recovery
Code:
CWM-based Recovery v.5.0.2.8
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

mounts and storage > mount /sdcard
Code:
Error mounting /sdcard!
mounts and storage > mount USB storage
Code:
E:Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)
Now here's my questions:
1. What happened? Did I do something wrong in updating CM9 to the stable version?
2. Will I be able to restore my data and/or my nandroid backup?
I can't mount my sdcard from CMW, but when I choose "restore from internal sdcard" it correctly tells my backup date, so I think the internal sdcard content is still there somewhere...
I'd really appreciate to restore all my apps and data!
3. How can I fix this mess? I'd like to have the CM9 installed and working.
Thank you very much!! :angel:

Ok, I've just realized that the internal sdcard is /emmc and not /sdcard.
So the "mount /sdcard" error is normal.
I can correctly mount /emmc from CWM, but if I try to install a rom from a zip file (either the CM9 old nightly or the stable build, which are both saved on the internal emmc), it says:

Just restock and start over again:
From the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385153
How to Flash the above zips :
You need to restock your tab if you are running an old MTD build, (only if /system isn't 406 mb, check it by the command `df system` or use an app (such as root explorer) )
IF you are coming from a FSR (STL/BML) ROM (aka Samsung ROM - anything else than the latest CM9 builds / AOKP builds, i.e. any GB ROM, no need to restock)
IF you are coming from a froyo ROM, you need to flash a stock GB ROM first, follow the guide below :
Restocking :
Follow the team overcome restock guide [http://www.teamovercome.net/p1000/?page_id=17], and completely restock your tab.
Once you've flashed it, reboot into download mode again and flash any kernel with recovery (any non-MTD kernels from humberos.com.br, or this forum, for your tab model)
After you've flashed the kernel, reboot into recovery, and this time, install the zip you just downloaded from CyanogenMod servers.
Install Google Apps if you want (gapps-ics-* from goo.im) [optional]
Reboot and enjoy your tab
Normal install :
You need to have a kernel with CWM Recovery
Get the zip from the above download links
Put the zip on your sdcard, reboot into recovery, and install the zip
It'll reboot a few times during the install, that's normal

Will I lose all data on the /emmc partition (including all my TitaniumBackup files) if I restock?
If the answer is yes, is there a way to copy some files from the emmc to an external sdcard before restocking? (e.g. using CWM, or Odin/Heimdall)
Thanks.

Restock to 2.3.3. Then flash overcome before flashing cm9.

I have exactly the same scenario as you described, so I'm interested, could you find a solution?
I can restock with Odin using theTeam Overcome Guide, the tab boots ok. So I try to install CM9 again, I can flash the zImage with Heimdall no problem, but when I choose install the CM9 zip from the internal sdcard, I always get the same getprop assert above. I made this loop a few times now (trying to install CM9, restock), but it's always the same.

Weird that never happen to me.
Just to be crazy, can you try flash AOKP build 40 instead?
If it works, then flash cm9.
Someone got that working before.

I restocked but sadly I lost all data on the internal sdcard. :crying:
Then I copied latest CM9 nightly rom to the internal sdcard, installed the Overcome Kernel via Odin, booted into Overcome Clockwork Mod, and successfully installed CM9.

What is that?
I thought you flash overcome 4.0 kernel tar using Odin,
Not overcome 4.1 rom
Overcome rom is flashed using CWM only.
So, You mean restock - overcome kernel - overcome 4.1 - cm9
Rooting is redundant.

No, I didn't flash the overcome 4.0 kernel.
I used odin with the Overcome_7_Series_v4.1.0_Wipe.zip file unzipped, and put the proper files into the pit/pda/phone fields of odin. That's all.

bummer
flashed GT-P1000 with CM9.1 stable version too. Suddenly the device keeps auto shutdown with unknown problems, app crashes such as Google Play (which I itched to remove and updated to the somenumber version) and changed Apollo app back and forth and back again of 1.0 version from the separate developed apk with the original cm9 Apollo. and then after many times flashing and tried to restore the CM9.1 Stable, the device wont let me use CM9 again. On boot scanning sd card, it shuts down weirdly. maybe there's some problem for my device with CM9. sigh.

Yes just search in this forum. I had the same problem too. Basically here is what to do
1- download and flash the full firmware JJ4 with pit and partition cheched (this will resolve the csc errors)
Your tab might still get stuck on the boot logo. Turn it off then go to download mode
2- Flash Gingerbread 2.3.3 following Chainfire instructions
Your tab should reboot normally.
Good luck

I actually had the same issue, and have been scouring the forums for days. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a solution. I tried following the instructions listed for Unbricking the Galaxy Tab and it worked for about a day.
After that it began generating errors. First my widgets disappeared saying there was a problem, second reboot wifi generated errors and wouldn't turn on, and third reboot was the Verizon Logo. When it was on the VZW logo, it would vibrate once, pause, and vibrate three times. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
So, if this is what you were dealing with, this is what I did to resolve it. (Warning: I am not a developer, and take no responsibility for what happens should you choose to repeat my steps.)
1.) I noticed it was still on CWM3, tried to reflash Khasmek's Voodoo plus v.5. -Booted into Recovery
-Wiped Data, Cache
-Flashed
Got me out of the vzw loop. Went to boot loop.
2.) Flashed rom (tried K-lean v3 and Khasmeks Aosp and Simply Aosp.
-Copy rom to SD card.
-Boot into Recovery
-Update from Zip on SD
-Flash
Fail. Still a status 7 on install of any given rom. Still displaying CWM 3.0 after kernel flash.
3.) Heimdall with original files.
-Go look it up.
Booted, but a function died on every reboot (Camera, Wifi, Widgets, etc). Noticed that system only displayed 512 RAM. May have flashed incorrect files.
-Verified. Idiot. Downloaded and Repeated with correct files.
Still had same issue with rebooting and losing a function every time.
Still displaying CWM3.0
4.) Got frustrated. Drank a little. Remembered I had a recovery from March.
-Boot into recovery
-Backup and Restore
-Restore
Bingo. Everything seems to be functioning correctly and has been for a few days. Have rebooted multiple times, no issues. Also, CWM is 2.5 again.
Hope that helps.

[Q] Issues moving from Darky 10.1-3 to CM7.1

Well, I was trying to move from Darky 10.1-3 to CM7.1 oona GT-i9000 and whatever method I have tried I couldn't do so.
1. When I tried flashing CM7.1 directly from Dark Core Recovery (threads show it's supposed to work) I have first encountered some sort of a boot-loop. I see console flashes quick and then it reboots. I have entered CWM recovery mode and reflashed and now the phone starts, with the USIM card inside I have no reception and com.android.phone continuously crashes. Was unable to do much with that.
2. As method 1 failed I have downloaded EZBase's Froyo bootloader and flashed it. There from CWM Recover I have tried flashing but it failed and I'm getting the following:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxys" || getprp("ro.beuild.product") == "galaxys"
and it keeps repeating itself, just instead of "galaxys" it says "GT-I9000" and other possible names for an i9000.
Any advice anyone ?
Did you Wipe? (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
Also you might have ext4 lagfix enabled. Go to CWM and disable it.
Then try again.
I normally flash the CM7 initial kernel using odin and then only use CWM to flash CM7 nightly or stable.

Problem flashing any rom

Hi all,
I recently flashed an android for the first time, so go easy on me!
I flashed my galaxy note gt-n7000 with the CM10 preview #3 (dated 20th August 2012) with success... but!
When I try to install preview #4 of CM10 (24-08-1012), I always get an error message coming from the updater-script.
It says:
assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxynote" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "galaxynote" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "n7000" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "n7000" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "N7000" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "N7000" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-N7000" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-N7000"
I already figured out that my note's name/product/device has been changed to I9100 (S2 build), so I simply opened /system/build.prop and changed it back to GT-N7000. (settings -> about phone -> model is showing GT-N7000 as it should now). Although, I didn't change ro.build.product because the build.prop said it isn't used anymore :s
Still, while running the zip from cwm (6.0.x.x) I still get the same message and it aborts with status 7.
One thing to take notice: I can't install from SD card, it says it's unable to mount the /sdcard when I try to update from external sd card in cwm. I'm trying to install from internal sd...
I already tried installing another rom without success.
I'm in the dark here, so please light up the way :crying: :fingers-crossed:

Sorry, but I think you missed the fact that I am already on the unofficial cm10 preview 3 rom. Meaning I already have a cm10 safe kernel?

buildprop flash,
Or format in mounts system then reflash a rom. Thats where it is saved. I think you are on a save kernel so I think it should not be an issue.
Edit: Just to be sure you can flash a safe kernel, reboot in recovery and then do above. All at your own risk

You're suggesting formatting /system and then reflashing another rom (without rebooting in between)?
Could that be the solution? The build.prop file can be found there, how will the updater-script be able to find the parameters it needs if the /system folder was formatted?
Sorry if it's an obvious question (which I think it is), but I'm not yet an android savvy. I've had some experience with linux tho...
Any help is appreciated!

I'm not panicking, but still, I formated /system and tried flashing cm10 preview #4, but it still gives me the aser failed error.

I can't put anything on my internal storage, because my rom doesn't work anymore and I can't connect to my pc...
I've seen the posts about downgrading to GB, but I can't because of the sdcard & emmc screwup..
Some tips & tricks would be helpful. :fingers-crossed:
good one, remember to reboot recovery after flashing kernel.
last resort try flashing a gb rom from pc odin with or without regular pitfile. Flashing takes some time so be patient. If it get stuck about an hour at factorysys you might have case of superbrick, but I am not expecting that.

Samsung Captivate Multiple issues

So I'm trying to install a ROM onto my Samsung Captivate. I've went through this process multiple times, although not with this phone. Im in CWM recovery (Version 2.x, which is probably the problem), first I realize my ext-SD won't mount. I find a simple work around and load the .zip onto my internal SD. So I try to install it again and and it it has some long error message (I'll post it on here in a few minutes), ending with "Installation aborted".
Any ideas of what I need to do? My only idea is to update recovery but I can't get around to that right now. I'm just trying to avoid anymore roadblocks.

That means you have a device/ Rom file mismatch. However, that seems to be in order since you say you have a captivate and you are flashing the file for captivate. Your build prop must be modified by your current Rom. Try flashing a kernel first, then redoing the installation from the new recovery.

Try loading a gingerbread stock rom that has been updated to contain cwm recovery using 1-click package(there is thread with all 1-clicks). If you never had a gb rom before then select a package with bootloader so that you'll have gb bootloader too. Then flash CM10. That should work.

Assert Error

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab (GT-p1000) thats currently Gingerbread 2.3.6. I restocked it recently with Overcome, and would like to install CM-9.1.0. I've tried flashing CM-9.1.0 several times over the past few weeks and continue to get error
"script aborted: assert failed: run_program("/tmp/updater.sh") == 0
assert failed: run_program("/tmp/updater.sh") == 0"
I always make sure to wipe data, cache, d cache, and I've restocked with the Overcome Kernel a few times as well. I've also tried installing from the SDCard, AND the internally SDCard. I've downloaded CM-9.1.0 from a few different sources as well. No matter what I've done, I'm sitting getting that error.
Ideas anyone?
two things come to mind:
1) GB-stock-safe-v5 is GB 2.3.3 , so why are you on GB 2.3.6? Are you not using Overcome Method?
2) if all fails, you can edit the updater script to remove assert

Found the solution to my issue! (I did use the Overcome Method, and did flash with the 4.1.0, sorry )
To fix my issue:
Used ADB -
adb shell
mount /dev/block/stl3 /efs
No more error, and CM-9.1.0 installed without issue.

What is ADB?
How to install/use it?
I just installed GB-stock-safe-v5 ROM (GB 2.3.3) on my tab, i want to install the CM9.1.0 ROM in it..whta should i do now?
use odin and flash overcome kernel 4.0.tar
follow the thread in my signature, there is a guide in PDF format on how to do that.
You will then have CWM recovery.
Use that to flash CM ROM , 3 times (don't ignore this).
The flash gapps for the right ROM.
