[Q] E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110 ... my nightmare begin!

Hi! Here is the story of my nightmare... I have a Bell i9000m with Android 2.1. I have use GST tweaker tools to root it. I also have do a backup with titanium backup (but I think it useless at this step) After this I have try to change the battery icon with the same utility. When I have rebooted the phone, it stop at the "S" logo for a minute and after the screen go black and the button are glowing and the phone buzz. After this nothing happen. When I go in recovery mode (3e) I obtain an error:
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions,
copy default media content failed.
I have try with odin3 1.7 to flash the phone but I'm a little bit confused with all possibility...
One stupid thing I have to say, I don't know my original firmware version... ;-(
I have see many good custom kernel... it is possible to fix this and by the way to upgrade to froyo?
It is possible to fix my problem doc?
Thanks a lot for your help!
P.S. Sorry for my bad english, (i'm from Quebec,Canada)

Easiest fix :
Go in recovery and wipe.
Then restart and see if that fixed your problem.
Alternate (Guaranteed solution) :
Go here
Click "Direct Download". If you don't see it try to refresh the page.
Fire up odin.
Extract the zip u downloaded
For pda in odin select the .tar you extracted
Put your phone in download mode.
Flash w/o repartition or nething.
That should work.

Hi! I have try the 2 solutions you mention. But always same problem... I have to mention I have installed speedmod-kernel-k12p-500hz it is correct or I have to replace it?

Ok then do this :
Get these two
Flash odin with repartition and select the pda,modem,csc
Once done
Go back to odin. Flash just pda with no repartition or nething of the jl2 (previous thing u downloaded in my first post).

Sorry for this question but what do you mean by nething? (sorry english is not my first language!)

So leave everything the way it is.
Dont check mark anything extra.

YEAH! You solved my problem!!! You rock man!
Before I do any other stupid thing any advice?
I have visit some european site about android. They offer some firmware.. it is better to keep the "bell" specific firmware?,etc...
I don't know if I already say this ... Thanks you!

Try them.
Now u know
exactly how to restore if nething ever happens

.. ok. call me a n00b or w/e u want, but i understood everything up until that last part. when u go back to odin.
It would help if you can describe the set-up, because clearly i did something wrong... screenshots would help if possible /:
p.s. i have all the files downloaded from ur previous posts... i just need to know the order. also for the second download file, which file is the PDA file? the one with the word "CODE" in it? or i dont even apply that one .. ;;;

Hello, i've been having the same problem with my GT-i9003, and even after flashing with odin i still have the same problem. Well, it's not exactly the same, cause my phone will keep on a starting bucle if i try to start it without my EXTERNAL sd card (the one i bought), and if i start it with the external card in, it starts, but i can't use anything that uses the sd card (music, camera, 3g), so yes i can call and message and use wifi, but that's not how it's ment to be. Basically it's like i had no external or internal cards.
So everythime i try to flash without the external sd card, i get the mounting error, and if i flash with the external card, it seems ok , but i still can't use any of the things mentioned above.
I'm a bit lost, and i believe it's because i'm missing something (i'm new to this). i don't want to send it to samsung (yet)
i've been using the firmware that came with the phone, didn't try anything new.
to sum up: any attempts to flash with/without the external card are irrelevant, the problem persists.
Any thoughts/ideas/solutions?
thanks in advance.

My Galaxy Tab Freezes Often

Dear Friends,
Hope you are all fine. This is the 1st post of mine and hope to get the solution from here. My Galaxy Tab GT - P 1000 often freezes. Previously the O.S was Froyo 2.2 and as the problem started from here one of the friend suggested to upgrade the O.S to 2.3.3 Gingerbread to overcome the situation which I did. But nothing changed at all. The problem still remains. I just bought it only 5 month's back so I really badly need this to run once again smoothly like before. Basically whenever I tried to run something very resourceful it hang's. For an example if I play any games for only a minute or two it hangs and nothing happens. But also many times if only browse the options it hangs and to get all things again I have to reboot my Tab every time. Today I just pressed the button VOL UP + The Power Button (As per the video suggestion from YOUTUBE) and a message showed up and I think the problem just identified there. The attached file contains the the picture of the message which showed up. I really don't know for this the problem is really occurring or not and if for this then how to solve it. Please also let me know the other possible solution to get rid from this problem of mine Galaxy Tab. I will be ever grateful to you. Despite the image already attached the exact one also stated below:
-- Verfing internal MMC block...
checksum confirmation -> check(1)
the # of partition : 3
part(1) BR_ChkSum in header: 94CE1E214.........

Try flash stock rom, with the "update bootloader" option checked in odin 1.70.

Yup, I hope the same. I personally believe through XDA we will definitely get our solutions.

Hi, i'm not a professional but it seems the bootloader is corrupted, maybe in a bad update.
In the other line say the internal MMC can't be verified the MMC is the internal SD card.
First flash the stock rom with Odin 1.70 with the "update bootloader"option checked and repartition.

ive had mine only a few weeks and its been getting the same way.i rooted it with some kernal and thats it.still stock rom.how can we fix it?
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA App

Flashed the new rom called icontact or somethinf like that and rodderik kernal .working much better tham the day i first bought it. I love my tab now.to just think i was going to sell it.lol

good for you.. i just flashed my with overcome rom, and I still have the same issue..

I got the kernal from rodderick post and than did the ext4 thah flashed over rom.im starting to think its more of the memory tue system has amd nor the roms.

[Q] SGS i9000 Operating System Problem

Hi guys,
I just got given an SGS i9000 that was on Bell Canada (not sure if that's relevant!?) and I wanted to root and load a custom rom etc, I downloaded odin and placed the 3 files in their relevant places and started the process, now the SGS won't boot and gives the following message:
E:failed to mount /dbdata (Invalid argument)
and also:
Installing Milti-CSC...
Can't access to ''/system/csc/BMC/system/'
Does anyone know how I can fix this? I've tried going back through odin, but the SGS is no longer recognised on any of my computers :crying:
Any help/pointers would be awesome!!

you need to download odin then you flash dbdata.rfs.tar in though odin to the sgs in recovery mode.files below. maybe this will help.

1. Just do a 'wipe data/factory reset' and reboot the device when done.
2. Let the device boot all the way then turn it off.
3. Re-enter Download Mode and re-flash only the CSC file without pit and without re-partition...

Hi guys!
Thank you for the replies and taking the time to help...my biggest problem is getting the computer to recognise the phone, I think when I flashed whatever it was before I've somehow "deleted" the O/S on the phone and now no mater what PC I plug it into the phone never gets recognised...and that means I can't use odin
If I can get that bit fixed, then I think I can recover the phone but just don't know how to fix that...odin was working perfectly before so I know it does, just need the PC to find the phone now!
Any thoughts? I've tried re-downloading Kies/drivers etc but to no avail.

But you can enter Download Mode?

That's probably has something to do with the fact that you have a I9000M, which is the Canada Bell version of the I9000. There are some subtle hardware differences between the two. Honestly, **** Samsung and their variants. It's a pain in the *** trying to remember if the difference still matters any more. When the I9000M first came out we encountered a whole load of issues with people frying their memories and having to send it back to Samsung for replacement. I think someone eventually came up with a way to overcome this, but I didn't read much about it.
Anyway, try getting a stock I9000M rom instead and flash that. As for your PC not recognising it, you did reboot between uninstalling and reinstalling the Samsung drivers right? Also, kies must NOT be running in the background when you use odin, otherwise odin will not recognise your phone.

Yeah, I can get into download mode but nothing happens from there...because the laptops/PC won't recognise the phone I can't transfer anything on to it!
I've tried installing a rom from SD card but it fails :crying:

Yeah, I read about that actually - I should maybe have paid more attention when I was looking into this in the first place!
Thanks for your reply man, I'm going to try getting stock I9000M rom tonight and have a go with that! But yeah, 3 different PCs/laptops I've tried it on, with variations of with/without Kies...still no joy as yet!
Thanks again for the reply though :good:

[Q] Is it possible to root the new Galaxy S3 mini GT-I8200N (Value Edition)?

Hey guys
first of all thanks a lot for this great forum.
I have a question regarding my new Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini (Value Edition) (model number: GT-I8200N).
Is there any way to root my phone? I can't find any info for this model on the internet.
In this thread only the GT-8200 is mentioned. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2185700. How is this method working?
I found a guide for rooting the "normal" S3 mini by flashing the CWM and SuperSU.
Is it possible to root my phone this way without bricking it?
Thanks in advance for your help!

yes i want to know too

Is this phone built on same board as the US s3mini sm-g730a? If so at least you can root it. Dont try anything for i8190.
Sent through time and space from my s3mini/CM11

The specs of the two models look similiar but how can I check which board is in my phone?
Thanks alot for the advice not to try anything for the gt-i9190!

root i8200N 100%
I confirm that VRoot works 100% on i8200N sorry for my english.

hi!can u share which version did? as iam trying with the latest version and it cant!

reytech

Try this, it roots almost any device.

Hi, i have an i8200L and I did root it with the vRoot. But does anyone know if the others mods for i8190 work for this one? Like ROMs and all that?

I've read that you can't flash roms etc. because there are differences in the software (bootloader?).
The chance that you brick your phone is pretty high.

Hi,
first I tried to flash a custom rom and afterwards I read this thread.
There is no excuse for that, i know. But I know now, that i flashed a wrong rom.
Can I throw the Mobile away or is there a chance for it?
My GT-I8200N now shows me just a window with the words "firmware upgrade encountered
an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again".
I don´t know what to do know, maybe someone can help me.
Thanks

That is download mode. You have to chose vol+ to see your status.
To get out of download mode, just hold power for about 10 sec and it will reboot to system.
Recovery mode: vol+ / home / power
Download mode: vol- / home / power (confirm with vol+)

Thanks for answer. In recovery i can not see anything. In download Mode it says "system status: official". But at the top it says "odin mode" Does that mean that warranty is still ok or not?

Is still ok!

Samsung S3 mini i2800L unlocked - hard bricked
Hi All,
While updating my firmware via odin, the update failed and my phone was stuck in download mode , I did a battery pull and now the phone will not come on at all. The computer makes hardware connection sound when I plug it in or unplug it, but other than that I cant get it to respond.
I would like to get a debrick file or a bootlader.img for this model so I can try to boot it from my SD card. Can anyone help me ????

I'm so glad
