SGS Logic Board corrupted? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello friends, I got my SGS(GT-I9000) 3 years back and love this phone a lot since it was my first. I've changed a lot of roms from time to time but this last rom i flashed was MIUI. After i flashed it, it goes into recovery mode and over there i saw a few errors which i tried fixing and never found a solution. Before i flashed MIUI i was running Slim Rom v4.3. Since i was desperate i took it to the Samsung's Service Center and they told me i gotta change my Logic or Mother Board which was around 105$ or something. I decided to try something before i bid farewell to this awesome phone. After i got it back from the Service Center i noticed in the Recovery Mode there were more errors than before.
I've attached a pic of these errors. I tried flashing stock and various other roms but no luck. Is the phone gone for good? or is it fixable?

two Q.s
1) After you got back you have more issues? what was the initial issue, if you can recall?
2) How do you get formatting ( in Picture) by just entering recovery? remove Ext SD card & SIM , same result by powering on?

Initially, I was getting 4 errors :
E: copy_dbdata_media: format SDCARD:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (No such file or directory)
E: copy_dbdata_media : Can't mount SDCARD : copy default media content failed.
E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl111 (Invalid Argument)
After flashing MIUI rom through download mode it would restart and go into recovery and do some initializations but the above 4 errors poped up.
The lady at the service center mentioned that they are gonna dead the motherboard or something about removing power from the logic board completely.
The Formatting SDCARD... popped up after i came home and tried getting into recovery and noticed these Arrays or argument vectors.
I don't have an external card, the phone came with 16 GB internal card.
Do you want me to put up a video, so you can get a clear picture what's going on?

Basically the yellow messages will come up when the phone is installing something and the red messages will come up when they are errors that needs to be resolved,. basically it looks like you have an internal SD card problem.
you should try to format all the partitions first If possible (by flashing a CWM recovery) and try for a fresh install of a stock ROM after that.
so read this first to get an idea of what needs to be done, enter download mode and flash the i9000 speedmod kernel, (do not reboot) enter CWM and format everything in Mounts & Storage (do not reboot), enter download mode and follow this to flash a gingerbread ROM on it .
if its not possible to format the partitions, the only other option would be to use an external SD card partitioned into two to act as the internal SD card to boot the phone. Just read all the links in the first link to understand how this can be resolved.
At the same time, for samsung service centers, it would be , changing the whole logic Board (mother board) as they would not replace just the SD card alone, which is the problem here. Some Mobile Technicians have simply striped it off and used the external Sd card to solve such problems.

Thanks for the reply and the workarounds.
I was able to install CWM (CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS).
And now it says unable to process volume !. Do i proceed to Partition SD card? and what Ext size do i choose?
And under mounts and storage there is no /data, etc but only "mount USB storage".
I tried wipe data/factory reset and i get these :
--Wiping data...
formatting /data...
E:unknown volume "/data"
Formatting /cache...
E:unknown volume "/cache"
Formatting /sd-ext...
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
E:unknown volume "/sdcard/.android_secure"

take a look at this under mounts and storage menu you can format all the partitions, if its not there than flash the speedmod kernel and format them, as advised earlier, do not partition your SD card

If i try to mount sdcard i get the same error when i try to format sdcard. How do i proceed further? I'm also out to get an external card of 8gb or 16 gb

It should be obvious by now that the problem is in mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) not being able to format, so best get a 16GB external card and partition it to solve your problem , your internal have to be scrapped and best to use only external

Yeah, i got the external 16gb card, it shows 14.48 gb free on the computer but doesn't load properly from the sd card. I'm stuck and not able to format the sdcard. I'm really stressed out now lol. It's not even recognizing through EASEUS Partition Master. I'll figure something out...any guides i should follow for partitioning it? I create two primary partitions of 2GB(vfat) and remaining fat32 right?

yes, it will only be abt 14GB, you use the speedmod CWM menu to format it in the Phone and you should be ableto use it, the earlier links given to you have guides on how to partition it.

Thank You for your support. I think the phone does not recognize the external sd-card. Through CWM i went to storage and mounts and tried to format/mount sd-ext but it failed. I wasn't able to format or mount.
I used minitool partition to create two partitions of EXT(2 GB) and FAT32(12.8). After flashing i got errors can't mount sdcard and can't copy to media. So i tried formatting through Backtrack with mkfs.reiserfs and mkfs.vfat, put the card in the phone and flashed various roms and your rescue kit (ezbase). I get the same error. I guess the phone is gone for good.

That's sad, but I guess I sort of noted it might be the case, as you were unable to format the boot partition (your earlier post) .
the only option for this now is to buy a scrap (broken) SGS and switch the mother board

When I install new firmware I get errors the same like this.
Now I have tried to install all firmwares (from 2.2.1 to 2.3.6) and nothing works.
I had my Galaxy running on a costum ROM (I don't remember the name, it was something with Ario).
What to do? I'm quite lost..

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

[Q] Please help - can't boot into recovery mount error

(Please let me know if this is the correct forum!)
I have a Motorola Milestone 1 (A853) with Open Recovery 1.46 on a 16GB card. I've been using this to try new roms for over 2 years now. Everything was fine until I tried to create an ext 2 partition using MiniTool Partition Wizard, but things went sideways. Needless to say I wiped the card, created a new 10GB Primary Partition on it and a 4 GB ext2 for further usage. Then, I restored backup items on the card (pictures etc.) plus a fresh new version of Open Recovery. Now, every time I am at the Recovery menu and try to apply sdcard:update.zip I get this message:
E:Can't open cache/recovery/command (<-- this is nothing new - seen it many times before but still able to boot into open recovery)
-- Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Installation aborted
.. any ideas what to do?
It seems like your phone dont mount the sdcard properly.
Try out a 2ndboot OR. (there is one from kabaldan and one from FuFu)
get a proper sdcard, and unzip to the root OpenRecovery from this url: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897048
And voila! :good:
Thanks for the assistance guys.
The card is fine, It is seen in Windows perfectly with the 2 new partitions, but the phone is not seeing it. I was following MrTapa's guide here before the trouble started: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750888 . When the card worked before, it was formatted using NTFS and both Windows and the phone could see it. Now, the 10 GB partition is NTFS and it has the additional 4 GB ext2 partition. Windows sees it, the phone does not.
Does Skrilax_CZ's note have anything to do with it? "If file "/system/etc/install-recovery.sh" exists on your Milestone, delete it (prior to flashing the SBF)" <-- from http://modmymobile.com/forums/563-m.../531599-open-recovery-v1-46-11-21-2010-a.html

NTFS?
Replace it with FAT32. Then it should work.
In the link you provided check step 9 (though FAT32 should work fine even with 2GB cards)
Ok - so reformatted 10GB partition to Fat32 and loaded OpenRecovery again to root of sd card - same error. I might also mention that I tried Fat32 on another smaller (2GB) card with an ext2 partition and it gave the same error. I'm beginning to believe that this phone has a problem with multi-partition sd cards?
Just tried the original way - one partition using NTFS ... same error. Frustrating .. over 3 days on this now ...
NTFS and Android can not work.
Unless someone included ntfs-3g into the kernel - but that would be a madman's work...
Delete every partition off your sd card, boot up Android, it will prompt you to format it, do it.
Copy recovery (OpenRecovery directory + update.zip) to sd card, try booting to recovery.
If it works resize FAT partition created by android to make space for an ext partition, boot Android again to see if it's ok with the changes.
Solved - if anyone is trying create an additional ext2 partition remember that BOTH the FAT32 and EXT2 must be created as PRIMARY. The app I was using defaulted to logical ...

[Q] Bricked/bootloop/no -recovery/ odin cant read file error, HELP?

Hi,
Ive been trying to get this phone working for about 2 days straight now. Tried all kinds of flash methods and so on.
But as of now, im officially stuck, and i dont know what to do.
I have this SGS i9000 with almost certain a broken internal SD (not sure, this is what i have tried to fix by flashing different roms/bootloaders/pit files,U name it)
I'm now at a point that only download mode is available and when trying to acces any recovery (original or CWM) i get the nice brick screen(phone --- ! ---- pc picuture)
Any Help would be apreciated.
Sorry for my bad english, im from Holland.
I don't know the original firmware or anything, i got this phone with bootloop error from a friend.
Thank you for all your help...
[EDIT1]
I am able to enter the Original recovery now, but a lot of errors are on the screen:
Do note that, there is NO simcard and NO External SD-Card in the phone present!
The errors in normal recovery are:
- e:failed to mount /data (file exists)

when you get this (phone --- ! ---- pc picuture), you need to re-flash the correct kernel or correct ROM as its stuck in incomplete flashing.
when you get this cant mount /data your storage not prepared yet you may have mp3/junk file stuck in data and causing the issue, so remove Ext SD card, remove sim card before flashing dbdata.rfs file from here
IF that did not resolve it , flash a rescue kit from above link used for unbricking. i9000
Important
make sure your unit is i9000 and not a variant of i9000
charge your phone fully before flashing

Thank you for your reply,
I checked via Imei number what type of i9000 it is and its a i9000.
The phone is without a sim and external sd card.
As of this point a flashed other stuff and i now get failed to mount sdcard (file exists)
copy dbdata media: cant mount sdcard
please use ui.. bla bla...
media files copy failed.
Apllying Multi CSC
Cant acces system csc/kor/system.
Succesfully applied multi csc.
Is there a way to figure out what the correct rom should be? or is there like any 'universal' rom that would work on all i9000 phones?
I read your rescue page, and tried the one click jar file inside your resque kit and also via Odin but still i keep getting errors.
The original problem (when i first got the phone) is a couple of bootloops and eventually it would boot into android.
Whipe of data and cache would solve the problem but it got worse and eventually it resulted into a bootloop from which he booted into android after about an hour or so...
I though i had the right kernel/rom.. and so on...
I did flash a speedymod kernel which booted right into android and with sdcard function.
But it would give errors and bootloop and crash diverse apps (system apps)
I have rooted diverse types of phones before so i am not a complete noob in this area...
Any help on how to continue?
Thnx
[EDIT1]
After flashing dbdata i still keep the same error.
The rescue kit from ebase the download link of the pdf isn''t working.
Any help on that?
I will try all rescue kits available...

this would be the clue as to one of the problem you may be having, basically at some point the phone must have been formatted to ext 4, as such samsung Stock rom will not be able to use it .
The solution here would be to flash a speedmod kernel for 19000 ( look in My Android collections ( link below) under kernels and flash that to get CWM, untick Auto reboot in Odin before flashing after that get into CWM recovery and format system & Data or everything back to RFS using CWM universal lag fix menu.
you can also look at My android solutions (link below) for solving mmcblk0p2 problems

Basically this means your Internal SD card is corrupt , you can try ADB whilst in Recovery to see if you can pull anything from your internal SD card. Look in MY Directory (link Below) about ADB, if you are not familiar about ADB
or you can push a custom ROM into it to flash with CWM
The other option to get phone booting would be to use a two primary partitioned External SD card to act as the Internal SD card.

Ive tried a lot of stuff but adb won't recognise my phone...
I don't get an android device listed in my hardware devices list... only under usb devices it will say a composite usb device...
Even tried a other pc (which is fresh) but no luck either.. when i put my own phone on the same usb cable it recongises it straight away.
So no probs with usb cable/pc.
Any help? external SD-card option, not an option in this case...
Any other thoughts?
thnx for all the help!

Your SDK manager must have installed sources for your Android version to be able to run ADB and recognize the phone. Did you do it?

you can restore your efs folder IF you have a backup like this
or you can use the repair kit like this and switch SD card like this
and after that, flash the ROM you like.

Since this morning, my janice fails to mount the sdcard0 failing to download files from the browser, or pictures from whatsapp. Going in -Settings - internal memory; the sdcard0 been damaged and that to use it you must first configure / format it. Formatting does not start and a message appears: command '117 volume partition disk: 179_0 public' failed with '400 117 Command failed'
How can I fix the problem?

What izwan15 is saying is that
GO TO RECOVERY (vol UP + HOME +POWER)
Select mount and storage option
See if sd card0(internal memory card) is mounted if you see it unmount , just click and mount it ,
reboot and see if it fixes the problem .
hope it helps
From recovery when I go to - Mounts and Storage - mount / storage / sdcard0 appear this error message: / storage / sdcard0: Idle-Unmounted E: Error mounting / storage / sdcard0.
I do not know which way to turn!
Please help me!!

HI , well i would say that the partition table is screwed for some reason, because the internal storage partition has gone completely gone you are having this issue simple thing to solve this would be flashing stock which will ultimately repart the partitions and format the sdcard0. [Try to backup some important data first].
SOLVED. Give a medal to this man.:laugh: Thank you so much @DaksAnkit.
I installed the Stock Rom via custom recovery (found on another forum by a user called Gargaros) and subsequently by a temporary recovery reinstalled the Rom I wanted (in my case 5.1.1). Now everything works perfectly!:victory:
