Hi Guys,
Just tried to flash from JG4 to JM8,
I followed the instructions as per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=809423
Before i started i removed voodoo lagfix with the disable-lagfix method, then i did a factory reset.
I was up to step 2, that worked fine in Odin, then when i went to restart i got this error : can't mount \dev\block\stl11
any ideas what went wrong?
Thanks
Emm, what instructions have you followed? The link you gave is for kies and 2.2, not 2.1 and odin.
My guess - something to do with pit files and repartitioning. JG I think needs 513, while JM need 512, so repartition and try flashing one more time.
This does not belong in the development section ! The link you give is for update to froyo using kies .. You have flashed JM8 that is not froyo ! So make your question more clear and post it in q&a .. Anyway the error you get has to do with repartioning .. Flash JM8 again with odin check repartition and use .512 pit
sorry http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=807886
that is the correct link.
I used pit 512...
Edit: re-partition was checked and i definatly used pit 512... do you think voodoo had something to do with it?
reflashed again and and this is full error i receive in recovery;
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid argument)
update media, please wait....

Do not leave csc blank in first step (flash to jm8). No idea why someone wrote it.
Hi,
i had the same problem flashing from JM5 to JM8.
When i clicked on reboot the system started without problem.
Then I flshed to JPM --> no problems either.

What happened is you probably flashed using Re-Partition but your PDA and/or CSC was missing the cache.rfs file.
If you tick Re-Partition, you MUST flash the complete set of firmware files (those that include cache.rfs and dbdata.rfs) otherwise you'll get errors like that.
To fix it you have to flash again with Re-Partition and make sure this time your PDA or CSC file has the cache.rfs and dbdata.rfs file inside. You'll lose all your app data, so backup first.
Next time when u flash, don't Re-Partition unless you know you need to. For example, the official JPM/JP6 Froyo update files do not come with a dbdata.rfs, so if you (wrongly) click Re-Partition when u flash them, you're gonna get a similar error but with the /dbdata partition instead.
Had the same problem when I forgot to do disable OCLF on one of my reflash.
I repartitioned, then flashed to JM8 with odin without repartioning (all pit 512) and worked like a charmed.
The only time i get this error is when i flash a FW and it requires a diff pit file.
I am getting a similar error when attempting to "format internal sd-card" in recovery mode.
I get the following error:
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
Similarly, I didn't remove OCLF before I attempted to flash XXJPM using Odin, so maybe it has something to do with that?
Does a full flash overwrite any changes made by OCLF? If not, how can this be remedied?
I also flashed using Step 3 from the same link as was provided by jahash. I think it may have something to do with the lagfix not being removed.
Should have read further before posting I guess, but I think my question is answered in post #7 of the HOWTO link.
My next question is, can anyone point me to a dbdata.rfs file that would resolve this problem?

This happened because when u flashed JPM you ticked re-partition (which you shouldn't have). Its not caused by OCLF.
To fix it you have to flash again with re-partition using another firmware package which has the dbdata.rfs file (JM8 for example, JPM is missing it). Then after that if u want JPM flash it but DONT tick re-partition.
Thanks hardcore, that's exactly the info I was looking for. I will re-flash wish JM8 and then with JPM with partition unchecked.
Thanks, I'll report back with results.
As you said, I made a mistake. Went through steps 1, 2 and 3 and everything is fine now! Cheers!
i do have the exact same problem but flashing JM8 doesn't solve it.
in odin 1.3 with re-partition enabled I used s1_odin_20100512.pit, CODE_I9000XWJM8.tar.md5 as PDA and MODEM_I9000XXJM4.tar.md5 as phone
on startup I still get "E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11 (Invalid argument)"
any ideas please?
XIAfbk like one of the rep said earlier, you must also flash with csc as well. So pick your original csc when you flash JM8. I had the the same problem and it was fixed when i flash the second time with my original csc as well.

Where do you get an original csc file? I'm having exactly the same problem..
My phone is orange uk.. did not back up efs folder before flashing to froyo via kies reg hack.. Didn't know i had to..
Changed phone to xeu csc on froyo but now am reflashing whole process jm8-jpm-jpo.. to try to fix some modem issues..
Thanks
hardcore's post helped me a lot the procedure he posted works well ..... thanks hardcore
I just got out of this issue after struggling for 1 whole day. I tried each and every solution/suggestion/recommendation available on the web but NOTHING seemed to work. If you are in the same boat, here is some good news for you.
You don't need to mess around with CWM or Voodoo or whatever, simply use ODIN to flash the latest stock JPU (2.2.1) from the link below. This one does a complete rewrite of every partition on your device, including /cache, which is the issue here.
http://hotfile.com/dl/88094739/f5545cc/I9000XXJPU.exe.html
Once it is done, all your partitions will be properly mounted and formatted as per defaults. Then you may choose any rom you may like.
Just make sure you use the PIT, PDA, MODEM, and CSC files come with this firmware. Don't forget to click repartition.
Good luck!!!
So I rooted my Galaxy s(bell) and put speedmod kernel on it, I then tried to install a theme which partially worked but now I get "the process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly" every few seconds and any time I try to do something I was unable to do anything at all really. So I then installed dark core kernel and that did not change anything, I restored to factory default and that did not stop the error(Even though all data was wiped). So I then formatted system under dark core recovery(Bad idea?) and now I can't get past the Samsung Galaxy 19000M boot screen(Assuming because there is no system files now that I wiped them?). I can access dark core recovery and download mode....What can I do?
flash jvk(gingerbread) or jl7(froyo) system files useing odin 1.3+

The trouble was flashing a theme onto a stock ROM. Unless a ROM has been deodexed it can't be themed, so for themeing you need a custom ROM or one prepared using doc's kitchen. Just swapping a new kernel does not allow you to install a theme. Flash a stock theme in download mode from odin and then start again, you will be fine.
There are lots of guides about how to do that here.

Have you tried factory reset/wipe data in recovery mode? this may not work but worth a try
I keep I9000XXJPU on my PC because it has saved my ass in the past when i bricked my phone, it has all the files required to use in odin to flash. just get into download mode, open odin, attach files into specified areas, connect phone then start
make sure to look here, follow step and your all good

You can't flash a theme over a stock rom
I've been searching through countless forums and tried everything to reflash mine back to stock or atleast a stable custom rom. When i boot my phone after its done with odin it never passes the galaxy s Gt-i9000 screen. I tried using odin with dark's resurection and 2.2 stock but nothing works. The phone can't go into clockwork recovery either. Reading the other threads its possible that the one click lag fix may have something to do with this. So please help me..... ohh and btw its a bell i9000m
Thanks
also phone can go into download mode so there has to be a way to fix it
Download your tree file stock rom for odin, use 512pit and check repartition in odin.

Put the tar file in the PDA slot. I think it doesn't really matter where you put the files as they're automatically flashed to the right place, though I could be wrong.

okay i flashed with those files and now i have the same can't mount issue. it also says storage isnt perpared yet. And when i reboot i get this........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnrh2jEpNxo&feature=related thats what happens to my phone.
If I were you I would go on samfirmware.com to get a safe firmware download and JVQ which is 2.3.4 then download talon kernel 4.3 and flash via Odin, then download juwes rom 5.2 and flash via CWM. this is a very fast and stable rom with great battery life. This rom combined with the legend x fusion 3.0 theme is just awesome. I know juwes 5.3 is out now but I still reccomend 5.2 also juwes uses semaphore kernel as a default but I use the talon kernel its awesome. Good luck!

Please flash dbdata.rfs at the following link:

If that fails, please follow this:

If that still fails, let's start from the very beginning:
you can download any official firmware at http://fus.nanzen.se/
1a. Download Check Fus Downloader 2.1
Open Check Fus Downloader, and select the correct model of your G-Tab, choose a Firmware for your region. It will automatically decode the .enc2 file to.zip file
2.a. Extract the .zip file generated from decoding file to a folder and you will get
tar.md 5 file.
3. Start Odin - put the .md5 to PDA and leave everything else as is.
4. Go to download mode on the G-tab (Power + Volume down) - connect to your computer.
and click start. It takes about 6 to 7 minutes to do the flashing.
Can't guarentee if it would work, but good luck.
