[Q] Internal sd card issue

hello, I have the Samsung Captivate and am having a problem with the internal sd card. I went to put android 2.2 froyo and everything went well said success threw odin but my phone will boot up but once it gets to the galaxy s screen it stops. I have done the update threw odin several times and I run into the same problem. I got into system recovery mode and formatted everything cause it says that there was an error in the internal sd card, and needed to be formatted so I did that. Now when I go to reinstall packages it gives me this list.
--install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: failed to open /mnt/internal_sd/update.zip (no such file on directory)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted
any help would be much appreciated thank you.

yeah....reinstall packages doesnt do anything unless there is a file on your sdcard called UPDATE.ZIP
what you need to do is go back into DOWNLOAD mode, not recovery mode and use ODIN.....

I did that and after everything finishes and reset comes up in the blue box the phone starts it will go threw a list and it comes to a data wipe failed in red and formatting CACHE and DBDATA then applying multi-csc, installing multi-csc. Then Install default apk files, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (invalid argument0
E: copy_data_default_apk:cannot mount DBDATA:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
Then I format the sdcard and go threw everything again and it does the same thing. Im trying to give all the details.

I've got the same problem with GT-i9000.
Tried to flash with pit 512 and re-partition and pit 803 with re-partition, but the problem remains.

off topic but....
@thebeast
Your posts are hard to read. I keep thinking you are throwing your phone.
threw - past tense of throw "I threw it out the window"
through - by way of "I updated through odin"

Yeah I have that problem sometimes cause I'm typing relatively fast while focusing on other Things. I also do not proof read, relying on spell check too much. Considering I was trying to explain exactly what was happening to my phone from memory and going "through" the process over and over some mistakes are bound to happen. I had my lil bro hussle an att support store and get me a new one hence why I never checked this thread.
If you are having the same problem as me you do or did Not have an update.zip file on your internal SD. You deleted it or it was removed some how so before u tried to install anything you should of put it back to stock and hopefully that would of fixed it but I do not know the solution based on the fact I never bothered fixing mine.

lol @ the grammar police.
Stupid question - have you tried to use ODIN to go back to stock before attempting to re-flash? ODIN usually completely wipes the phone and any of the silly issues that come up.

The problem that is encountered is using oden to update while its missing that file so it deletes and starts to install the new rom but cannot. So the phone is stuck in limbo, I tried to use the one click flash countless times left it for hours and it would never work. So maybe if you did that before u tried to put the rom it might have worked but not once the damage is done. As far as I know.

I had a similar issue I think like 2 days back when I goofed up something in the framework folder. Nothing seemed to work.
So I had to revert back to stock using one click. That was the only thing that worked.

Yeah one click would not work for me at all trust me I tried that forever until I got the replacement.

Did u try going to clock work recovery and doing a "reset to factory settings"

I did and would not work. But I have a fully workout one now so maybe the Guy who is having the problem now should answer these questions lol

[Q] [DEV] Can someone DUMP P500 Baltic system.img

Hi, Can someone please dump/backup the system.img from baltic P500 or have a offical update for baltics. Thanks
Just do a backup and upload it. Thanks

No one here from Baltic States?

Hey, just show me how to do it, and I will give you.

hi, please use this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8917870&postcount=12
or if you have Thunderg installed, then just do a backup and upload these files.
thanks

Hmm, could you be more specific? I just bought this Optimus One like two days ago, and I'm feeling very newb (it's my first Android).
What do I have to do, to give you that system.img and what is that system.img file?

Hi, the system.img a backup from Android /system partition is a main part of the android. But this guide we just dump that /system partition, it's the easiest way.
I'll try to help you do that:
1. Is your phone rooted?
If you haven't done that, then use Z4Root(super easy app ) and you can get it from here: http://www.upload.ee/files/997919/z4root.1.3.0.apk.html
Download that file and copy to sd card and install.
Open that installed app and root your phone
If you need help with that, then there is little how to here: http://www.worldofnubcraft.com/285/rooting-a-lg-optimus-one-android-phone
2. OK, rooting done, now we need terminal app: You'll find that from Market. Just search "Android Terminal Emulator" it's from Jack Palevich and install that.
3. Now open the Terminal Emulator and enter these commands without "" and hit enter after command, these 3 command should be it:
"su" it asks for a root privileges and you allow that
"cd /system"
"tar zcvf /sdcard/system-dump.tar.gz *" and wait when it finishes. it takes some time. It's done when you see #, it takes couple of minutes max.
4. That file is now on your phone SD card and upload that system-dump.tar.gz file to somewhere and let me know

Are you sure about that?
I'm sorry, but it's not working. It gives me an error "tar not found". Any ideas?

By the way, what you can do with that file? What it contains? I'm just a newb, and I want to know everything about Android.
EDIT:
Is it possible to do that dump with Thunderg?

Go to market and install app called "BusyBox" and download / install BusyBox with this tool. After that it will work.

yes, i forgot busybox install that and give a new try

Ok guys, I got it. Before putting it live, I would like to know one thing. Does it contains any personal data, if so, what exactly? Sorry, for being so paranoid.

hi, it won't contain any of your personal data. Personal data is stored mostly on /Data partition and we didn't dump that. Thanks

Ok, so here you have it.
Optimus_One_Baltic_ROM_dump.zip - 89.2 Mb
And it's only contains branded ROM with no changes? That's great. What program do I need to restore my ROM to the branded one, if I'm going later to change it?

i think you should look to Thunderg... it's best way to make a full backup and restore after

You're not downloading the right file... It needs to be in .zip format. .tar.gz is a Linux Unix file compressed.

It seems that i only can download .tar.gz file of the htcdev site, do you know where i can find zip format files?

Download this https://mega.co.nz/#!eU4yBAxQ!vkQP48...0jG7nO-bt-IFn0 and rename it to 0PCVIMG.zip (the first character is a zero) and place it on the root of the sdcard. Then run adb reboot bootloader and once it boots press the power button. It should install.

Why are you trying to decode it? You should have just downloaded it, renamed it and placed it on the SD card..

Marshmallow "Couldn't capture screenshot."

Hello All,
I have a Nexus 6 (Hence the reason I'm posting in this thread) and I am not able to take screenshots after upgrading to Marshmallow 6.0. I would think to post in the thread of the current rom I'm running but I also full wiped and tried a different rom with the same result.
Every time I try and take a screen shot it says "Couldn't capture screenshot. - Can't take screenshot due to limited storage space, or it isn't allowed by the app or your organization." I would post a screenshot of what it's doing but... well... I think you get the point. I have plenty of storage space and I have dived into the various permissions settings on 6.0 but have yet to find out how to fix it.
Has anyone else had this problem across multiple roms and no luck with screenshots?
Currently running:
Chroma Oct-10-2015
Kernel:
3.10.40-Chroma-v1.01

Go to the screenshot directory and try to manually create any file there using your usual file manager/explorer.. If that fails,.it may be that the permissions are screwed which sometimes happens when you copy sdcard data back whilst in recovery.
If that sounds like your problem, there is a zip you can flash. Do NOT use "fix permissions" in recovery.
Flash this*zip*via recovery...

Try this. Boot into TWRP select Advanced, File Manager go to /sdcard/pictures hit Select, chmod 755, confirm, reboot.

Why are you still in ES? The problem isn't permissions, it's ownership. Use my zip as was suggested by @danarama.

The permissions zip worked,
As to why I was "still in ES?" I like to have an understanding of how everything works. May not be the quickest way to fix a problem, but it allows process of elimination on my side to see what specifically the issue is.
I appreciate the .zip and suggestions everyone! Thanks!

@osm0sis, You are amazeballs!! Ran into this same inconvenience the last couple of days. Swyped a quick search, quite effortlessly arrrived here, where I can thank you for the fruits of your labour. And I do mean ALL of your work across XDA. I appreciate you much! ?

Take screenshot on your PC
Well, I think maybe you can try taking the screenshot of your Nexus 6 on computer. Just don't do it on the phone if it keeps failing. Android Manager can do this and save the picture on your PC.

is it working now?

You can try to rename pictures to pictures2 and reboot your phone, this was a quick solution on the oneplus one, if it works, but it's a dirty solution.

Erased all My partitions through QFIL. How to fix?

As you can see, I accidentally erased all the partitions. I meant to just clear boot_a.
I tried recovering through these steps:
Download (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WQaaM35SWiF_UbXAM8hiRB95D2CDkIEq) the backup. Unzip it to find 7 luns (0-6).
1. Open QFIL
2. Select Flat Build
3. Click load xml and select the rawprogram(#) XML that is in the lun(0-6) folder.
4. If it asks you for a patch xml, click cancel. It's not needed to flash this backup.
5. Click download
6. Repeat steps for each lun folder
I kept getting this failure message in qfil:
I'm not sure if these are even the steps to fix it. Any Idea on what I need to do to resolve this?

Yes the best thing, or easiest rather, would be to determine which partitions are needed to get lgup to work, then flash a kdz with it.
Don't remember exactly which partitions are needed, google search for that. But flash those, from that backup, one by one, think there's only like 6 partitions needed.
That's the thing about qfil, if yer not sure what yer doing, don't do it

The problem with the backup is that I wasn't able to get them to work through QFIL. Is there another method of flashing those partitions?

one by one. I've done it, it's time consuming, but it can be done. And be sure to pay attention so you don't flash the wrong one to the wrong partition. If you get a message about 'data overflow', immediately cancel, that means you are trying to flash to a partition too small for the image, and you'll overwrite the partition next to it, and probably end up with a brick.
