Heeeellpppp
I have this Samsung Galaxy tab GT-p1000 whose applications are getting error message of "force close", I tried to delete all the installed applications, restored factory settings but It doesnt seem to uninstall all the applications, So I decided to
upgrade it from Gingerbread 2.3.6 to ICS after installing it I got an error message of "Encryption Unsuccessful", So tried resetting it, rebooting, wiping factory settings, wiping cache but nothing happened, I even removed the sdcard before rebooting it but still I got the same error message.
I got frustrated and made a stupid mistake, I formatted everything thru recovery mode, format /data, format /sdcard, format /system and all. Yes every possible format. Here comes the problem when I rebooted the system, I only got the "Galaxy Tab, Samsung" screen. I can't enter recovery mode anymore, I can still enter download mode but my pc won't recognize it, so Odin can't recognize it too. What should I do now? HEEEELPPPP pleassseeeee :crying:

If Odin can't recognise it, use a new PC.
Many have done so, even one last week.

Any solution for this after this I try to reboot but The TaB is still bricked.:S
Thanks for your Help.

same comment here as in there.
It is either the partition is screwed up or the NAND chip is bad.
If you did Odin with PIT file and repartition ticked, and didn't come back alive like the other forumer there, then your internal NAND chip is bad.
There are several threads dealing with how to use external SD only and on damaged internal SD.

[Q] SGT Sprint p100 Won't mount e soft bricked

Sorry I know this has been posted a thousand times but I've tried everythig. I have a SGT Sprint p100. It's hung on the Samsung screen and the E drive isn't recognized and won't mount.
I have used Odin3 and have added the following files:
SPH-P100.E17.SECURE.REV07-FULL.TAR.MD5
SPH-P100.PIT
DBDATA.RFS.TAR
EVERYTHING SAYS PASSED. I HAVE WIPED THE CACHE AND DONE THE FACTORY RESET BEFORE AND AFTER ODIN AND STILL THE MESSAGE BELOW.
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblkop1
E:Failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)
and so on and so on
PLEASE HELP...I DON'T THINK I AM THAT FAR OFF FROM GETTING IT FIXED HAVE BEEN AT IT FOR TWO DAYS NOW AND CANT FIGURE IT OUT.
ANY INSIGHT WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
From the error message, it seems like either it didn't correctly re partition, Note the error failing to mount /cache, ( no such file or directory), or it just It fails to mount internal sdcard for some other reasons.
Can you re-try the flash with pit file again just in case?
if everything else fails, look at this post (I've never tried this method myself, so I can not guarantee it will work, or if you have the same problem with them):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=1463756
thanks. I have repartitioned several times, but I will the method you posted and see if that works.
Try the same method without dbdata.tar

I had my Galaxy running on a costum ROM (I don't remember the name, it was something with Ario).

solutions for /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 or /mmcblk0p1 or /mmcblk0p0 are all never the same, it all depends on as to what caused the format failure .
You can try flashing the same ROM twice or more with different PIT ( i9000 has 3 PIT files)
But if the problem was caused by Lagfix, which you had failed to undo before a factory reset or upgrade...than your Internal SD card needs to be reformatted back to rfs.(vfat) ..which is why the stock ROM fails to solve the problem as your current format is in ext 4.
So nothing will work, IF your internal SD card had been converted to Ext 4 format, until you find a way to format it back to vfat.
For Korean version of Galaxy S , flashing an Eclair will solve all problems except this lagfix problem. So you can try the Eclair for i9000 at My Android Collections
Suggest you try to format your Internal SD card ( remove ext SD card and Sim Card) , before trying any ROMS

Well, how am I supposed to do that? My PC doesn't recognize my phone because it wont start. Therefore I can't format my internal SD.

[Q] SCH-i800 fail to mount error

Hi guys, received a VZW sch-i800 from a friend and trying to get it to work. Any relevant searches have led me here, but no suggestions I've seen have worked so far. Tab is stuck in boot loop. I've flashed it with odin and heimdall (versions 1.1 to 1.3.2) with various files suggested, but everytime I get back into recovery mode and attempt to do a factory restore I get the following:
--Wiping data...
Formatting /data
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Formatting /dbdata...
Formatting /cache...
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
Data wipe complete.
E:failed to mount /preload (no such file or directory)
E:install_application_for_customer: Can't mount /preload
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions
and then a line of code telling me it can't mount cache.
I was able to get CWM recovery and the device would give me a different menu, but still the same issue with mounting cache. The instructions on CWM mentioned running a zip program from the sdcard, but no zip showed up in the directory when I looked on the device.
Any help greatly appreciated.
I have the same issue you reference. Did you ever figure out how to fix this? Thanks
I'm also having the same issue with my SCH-i800 after getting CM9.1 up and running. I'm thinking (hoping) it could have something to do with me updating CWM through Google Play (from v5.0.2.7 to v6.0.2).
got sch-i800 broke from someone we know

have you had any luck finding a fix for you Samsung table??

[Q] Failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)

I have a Samsung I987 Captivate. It was running SlimRom 4.2.2 and running fine. It started acting up by showing that the battery was dead. I plugged it into the charger and it immediately said it was half charged. I rebooted it and that s when it all went to hell. I got into clockworkmod and cleared dalvak and cache. At this point I rebooted but it still wasn't acting right. At this point I don't know what happened so I couldn't get into clockworkmod but I could get into download mode with a jig. I used Adam's I897UCKK4 Stock, Wipe, with options to install Bootloaders, Param,and Re-partition-One-Click.jar file which did it's thing and upon a reboot showed this on the screen and that is where it's at. The phone boots to the boot screen and then reboots. I have tryed searching on XDA and Google and haven't come up with a fix other than maybe a jtag at which point the phone isn't worth fixing.

I know that you aren't on ICS and I know that you didn't get the encryption unsuccessful issue that ICS had, but it sounds like your internal SD has died which is similar to what happens with the EU bug. So have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447303 and see if what others experienced after the EU bug isn't the same as what you're experiencing now.
Thank you m1batt1- That is similar to what I have and yes, your right about the ics. The thing that they are doing over on the thread going into cwm is something I can't do. The idea of swapping to the ext sdcard would be fine if I could figure out how to do it. I'll keep looking and trying.

No, actually I turned it in to AT&T for the rebate credit card. I haven't heard anything from them at this point. I got it to a point where it would boot up to the ATT screen. As stock as I could get it.

[Q] Cannot factory reset or wipe /data on t849

Pretty basic I have the T849 and the screen is shattered so I haven't used it in quite a while, long story short pulled it out of a drawer today and charged up. Cant access email or the play store so i decided to do a factory wipe, factory wipe does not work is just reboots into cwm and these are the errors I see:

Done.
I have also tried to flash a diff rom with no luck.

Do you have a link to the stock firmware? I have searched on this and google and most or all of the links are dead.
No, I don't have the stock.
I don't see the point though. GB-stock-safe-v5 works better than the stock T-mobile froyo anyway.

I got the gb stock safe flashed now im on the step where you are supposed to flash the -Overcome_Kernel_v4.0.0.tar but for some reason i dont seem to be able to find it in the zip file that was provided.
Great I have it fixed and it is working perfectly (as far as I can tell) now. Tommorow I will post the step by step and links that i used to get it fixed to save others the time and frustration of doing this, thanks for all the help. Namaste Friends
overcome rom works great only problem that I have ran into is the fact that wifi drops alot and hardly seems to work at all. And yes I have flashed the wi-fi fix, twice, and still no luck.
Have to go run some errands but afterwards I will post what I did step by step for those in the future that encounter the very problem that I had( the no factory reset or able to mount /data problem).
