The option to format my SD Card is GONE from the recovery menu, here's what happened.
1. i9000M running Froyo JPM approx. 3 days, no lagfix, rooted, lots of apps, SD card almost full.
2. Took phone out of pocket - Black screen of death, bottom buttons light up on touch.
3. Reboot into ClockWorkMod Recovery - unmount and remount everything. Reboot, and nothing. Wipe cache, reboot, nothing. Wipe data/restore to factory, reboot, AHA!, see 4.
4. Phone starts, immediately starts force closing like none other.. so, reboot into recovery.
5. Try restoring a Nandroid backup.. everything is swell, but it finds an error: can not restore android_system.img ... oh boy
6. Go back into recovery.. can NOT get to ClockworkMod Recovery, when I try to apply the update.zip, ERROR: no such file exists
Note: at this point I am not getting any errors when I enter recovery mode related to mounting, sdcard - nothing.
7. Try wiping/resetting again. Nothing.
8. Try flashing back to UGJH2 (stock Bell), nothing.
In the end, I still have no errors in recovery, and the option to format my SD card is gone..
Is this the same SD card issue as everyone else, or did I unmount my SD card somehow in step 3?
you sound like this case
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=822580
so when you re-flashed back to JH2
did you get any error message?
which method did you use to flash back to JH2 ?
I tried a long various way, no success and now i can't use my loved nexus.
Everything was working very fine till i used my nexus' sd to flash a rom in a friend's nexus ( his was not working): here started the problem.
After re-putting on my sd on my n1, i lost all data, settings, no apps, no market, no adw..
-Tried to reflash the rom(kang 1.3 which was working perfectly till before): still no market, no adw, stock look, no apps (included in the rom)
-Tried to wipe all data/factory reset, reflash the rom: still no market, no adw, stock look, no apps (included in the rom)
Then i reached to install the 2.3.6 stock rom, which was working: i rooted it with superoneclick, installed rom manager
First i tried to backup with clockwork recovery but it stopped on backing up sd/ext: i had to remove battery and reboot, install ra recovery to have a success in backing up ( in recovery's opinion).
At this point i tried to reflash the rom, but i got stuck on the starting animation which is in loop..
I tried to nandroid restore from ra recovery but it said "Oooops something went wrong"
don't know how to solve, can you please help me? i can't use the phone! (recovery seems to work, have drivers correctly installed)
Ok my guess it's your SD card that has a problem so try making a full wipe (erase on) of your SD card and see what happens.

I'm re-flashing the passimg of stock 2.3.6 which yesterday was working.
again i noticed some problems on boot animation, but it moved on and it seems to works..
should i partition again my sd? Because it works on my pc ( in this way i put into the sd the passimg.zip, so it shouldn't be broken) and i guess maybe it's because of that..
A re partition would be a good idea.
When my sd-ext got corrupt the fat32 portion was fine but ext portion was busted
repartioned sd, still get the problem wtf..
http://pastebin.com/igvgPHSN here is the boot log, hope this'll help you..
thanks!!
I would format card outside phone with sdformatter--I use v2.0? Full Erase and Size Adj ON. Then repartition and swap is 0.
i first tried this:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/38/problems2.png/
and then this:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/23/problems3a.png/
but it didn't solve the problem.
Then i did a full wipe and it worked, i reached to install the rom, BUT missing some pre-installed apps (like adw, facebook, android stock keyboard etc., but with market, gapps et.)
i put this apps on my own and now it's working, but still miss something like the link to "power off", "reboot" , "recovery" etc.
what is going on?
Hello boys and girls,
I think the internal SD card of my i9000 is corrupted. I've tried everyting: wiped/factory reset, reinstalling Cyanogenmod10, installing Stock ROM, installing stockrom with re-partitioning on etc. Nothing works. I'm using odin to reinstall the stock ROM. 'Uploading' the stock ROM to my phone goes well, but then when I restart and android is installing, I get error messages like:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 or
/dev/block/mmcblk0p1
After reading a lot on XDA, my conclusion is: broken internal storage.
Now I want to install everything on my external SD. So I bought a 8GB cat10 SD card.
I followed the instruction given in this youtube video (the error in the video is the same as mine): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdMhYYdMB08 Unfortunatly this didnt help. Reading the Youtube comments it seems this method only works when you're SD card is totally broken. Mine is not I guess
Then I found this XDA-post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1893354 Seems very promising, but I seem to get stuck on '-- Extract initramfs from zImage ( https://github.com/mistadman/Extract-Kernel-Initramfs )'. I;ve got a virtual machine running Ubuntu. When I start the script, nothing happens..... the terminal just closes.
The easiest solution for my problem would be a ROM that is altered to directly install on my external SD. I red somewhere that ROMS like that exist. Can't seem to find one though.
Well.. thanks for reading my post, and accept my appologies for my bad english. You can probably notice I'm not a native speaker.
Does someone have a solution for me? Maybe know of a good thread?
Thanks in advance!
Greatings, Eldoro

check out My Android Solutions and My Android Collections on How to Flash a Rom with a broken SD card
But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.

Thanks for your advice. There are a lot of solutions in 'My android solutions'. I have taken another look at my error message, but it's a bit different then the onces that a there. So I don;t know wich one to pick. I will attach a screenshot of my error message:
Trying the other link you gave me (My android Collections), I don't really understand the second step. See my remarks in red:
[I]ROM update without SDcard
If you don't have an sd card, or your slot is broken you can try this trick, but you will need a custom recovery like Clockwork.
Boot up your phone to recovery. And move your rom file to the adb directory, and start a command line ( cmd ) (How do I do this? Where is de adb directory? Where do I start cmd, on my pc or on my android? What is a adb shell?)
adb shell
mount data
adb push D:\custom_rom.zip /data/
Wait until the push finised, and restart your device to recovery again with "adb reboot-bootloader"
mount data
mount /data /sdcard ( mount the data folder into your sdcard folder, so your recovery will think that you have an sdcard installed )
Locate the ROM .Zip file you wish to flash.
Confirm the flash by following the on-screen instructions (ie: pressing the trackball, pressing the call button, etc.)
If no errors arise during the flashing process then the ROM flash was successful, Reboot the device.
With some root file explorer, remove the rom file if you don't need it anymore, to free up space.
Or use adb to remove the custom recovery
adb shell rm data/custom_rom.zip
[/I]
Hope you can point me in the right direction.

what are you trying to flash with 3e recovery, its better to use CWM recovery, just flash a semaphore kernel to get root and CWM
still problems with semphore

I've flashed smaphore kernel with Odin. I also downloaden Cyanogenmod-10-20121017.
I started my phone with the 3 button combo and got into CMW 6. Then I mounted USB storage and tried to transfer CM-10 to internal storage. While transfering my phone reboots...
I then succesfully copied the CM-10 file to my external SD. When I install the zip (after a wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache) I get the following error: postimage.org/image/5ma4nnnhj/
When I restart my phone I can't get into CMW again... so I flash semaphore again.
When I;m in CMW again I tried some thing... maybe its interesting for you to see:
After I wipe data/ factory reset, and I go to advance -> show log, I see the following errors: postimage.org/image/ygj9q6o1v/
Another example. In CWM, when I try to mount /data and /system, I get the following error: postimage.org/image/hol1hhhyd/
Mounting /data or /cache goes doesnt give any problems.
Hope this gives you some more insight..

The root cause of your problem is status 0 ( see My Android Solutions) likely you have flashed an ICS or JB kernel on a Gingerbread , thus having the wrong version of CWM on your phone . go here My Android Collections and download the correct kernel to use according to the firmware you are using
Check Here to chose your forum/Guide by Version of your phone or you will have more problems by using wrong solutions due to different versions of Galaxy S
But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....
(Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.)

Do a clean flash, meaning you will wipe everything and format your SD card too, since you will have CWM recovery
1) First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power
button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....
2) use combo keys to get into CWM recovery
a) wipe everything, data, cache, dalvik cache in advance
b) go into > mounts and Storage> format everything (except boot) repeat ..do it twice....than pull out battery and use combo keys to boot into download mode ( you will lose everything in your phone by doing this, hope you have backed up your contacts, images and game data etc) If you did not mout to USB storage first and copy the entire SD card to your PC first)
3) connect to PC, use ODIN3 and flash the JVU ROM with a 512 PIT file with repartitioning checked
Once it has booted , check your phone, check your SD card ( so that everything is functioning)
4) Flash the GB semaphore kernel and check again all is functioning, backup your efs before you try custom roms like this

After finishing step 3 my phone tries to install android but comes up with a Error. It only shows for a few seconds, so didnt have time to take a screenshot. It said someting about 'can't find directory samsung/music' ...'vox'.... Then the phone restarts and the samsung intro video starts but the video crashes after a few seconds and my phone restarts again. And again and again...
Not much luck so far )-:

Fundamentally your problem seems to be related to an SVOX installation ( text to speech engine) you must have used when your phone was functioning ...which seems to be mounted and giving you this error
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't unmount "/dbdata"
E:Format_volume failed to unmount "/dbdata"
so you need to get back into CWM > mounts and storage> unmount everything and also format everything including boot, after that , ( DO NOT BOOT phone after doing this)
after this pull out battery and this time include i9000 JVU bootloader + JVU + 512 PIT ( update bootloader and repartition TICKED and reboot UNTICKED )
after that flash again the JVU ROM and reboot phone
If this fails, we may need to downgrade the ROM to 2.2 and use a speedmod kernel and try, basically, your Internal SD partition is stuck on this one dbdata partition and you need to get it formatted to solve your SD problem ( looks like you are in luck as someone else had this problem earlier , read this thread and solved it.
suggest you use a note book to note down what you are doing (step by step) and what was the result to get to the bottom of solving this , once and for all, will be useful for others who may have this problem.

Tried your first advice. Couldnt unmount SD Card and didnt saw a boot partition to unmount.... Flashed with JVU bootloader, JVU, 512pit like you said. Then flashed again JVU. Got the same result... didnt work. Still error messages.
Then flashed with ROM 2.2 and speedmod kernel. Could format the SD Card with CWM now... Again no result in the end. Didnt get the error messages though when android install... but still keeps rebooting when booting.
Then used the EZbase recovery kit, like described in the thread you gave me (althoug the thread is a bit old and hard to understand). Flashed everything in the kit with EZodin. Result: no error messages after reboot, but I can see it doesnt finish the first install. Then it reboots and gets stuck on the Samsung video..
Now trying to connect to my phone via ADB. Downloaden the ADB toolkit. Want to try this:
adb shell
mount /sdcard
su
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
rm 1
rm 2
rm 3
quit
Its hard to understand if above commands fixed the problem in the thread you gave me... it's not very well described..
Do you have tips to connect to my phone through ADB? Downloaden ADB-toolkit and started adb-toolkit-main.cmd.
Reinstalled Samsung USB drivers..tried to connect in download mode and in recovery (with different CMW versions). Installed the drivers included in ADB-toolkit through zadig.exe.. tried in download mode and recovery...

Flashed with ezbase_recovery_kit_gb. Powered down and flash the stock kernel first. Then flash with partitioning ticked. After reboot it starts to install, but reboots. Then I don;t get past the first Samsung screen. Installed the rooted kernel and rebooted.. didnt got passed the Samsung screen.
Then powered down again and flashed the ezbase_gb bootloader, After that I flashed again with PDA, SCS, Phone and pit (repartioning ticked). Rebooted and the phone starts installing but reboots when doing so. Then again don't get past Samsung Screen.
I;ve made a movie of the initial install. I don't get red error messages, but looked at the video in slomotion and noticed there is still a error message in yellow. Got you a screenshot: http://postimage.org/image/gxhu8tvf7/ Sorry for the lack of focus, it's hard to read.. Think the path in the screenshot is /system/csc/KOR/system

looks like all your earlier problems is solved but strange its not booting, try flashing a JVU Bootloader with an 803 PIT ( RePartition UNTICKED) from My Android Collections
after this try a custom ROM, meaning flash a semaphore kernel, after that do the wipes, after that mount to USB storage and copy i9000 CM 9.1 stable to SD card and flash it

you can try any other way to do it, you can even copy it in your EXt SD card and flash from there..which ever suits you.
Bottom line, the errors are not there, so you may just flash the ROM, twice or thrice to get it working

Installed CM9.1 from external SD card. Installing zip finishes without errors, but on boot it gets stuck on the cyanogenmod video. Reinstalled a few times, but no succes. Then flashed with semaphore Jellybean kernel and tried installing CM10nightly... no succes either didnt finisch install... Then flashed semaphore ICS kernel again and tried again with CM9.1.. Result: not errors installing, but freezes on boot...
Then I flashed again with cm9.1 and looked in the log after installing te zip. Seems there are errors! Screenshot of log: http://postimage.org/image/cp1devyfl/

Basically, it is CWM errors and not what you should solve first, you need to get your phone booting, so get back to Stock ROM , try Darkys Resurrection with PIT, IF all goes well try for CM 7 first...DO not Flash a CM kernel First, always flash the ROM and only after that, use the relevant kernel for that ROM
But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....
Hello All,
Long time lurker, first time poster (and, as usual, asking for help)
I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000, stock, rooted. Was installing an app yesterday from the play store, when the device rebooted and now it seems to be stuck in a boot loop.
At first I was afraid that it was the dreaded internal SD card corruption issue mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1463756
However, when connecting with adb, I was unable to locate any references to the error mentioned in the post above :
Code:
<3>[ 4.802004] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising MMC card
(Also tried the alternative option to list contents of /dev/block and was able to see several references to mmcblk)
Having said that, I haven't yet tried a wipe data/factory reset from the stock recovery because I am not sure if this will wipe my internal SD card contents. I do want to try to save/ copy out my pics etc. if there is a way to do this at all prior to wiping it. (And yes, I am kicking myself hard for not having backed this stuff up.)
I guess what I am asking for is:
a) Is there a way to recover from this without a complete device wipe?
b) If I do need to wipe from recovery, will I lose media/user data on the interal sd card?; and
c) If so, is there a way to retrieve all this data to a PC prior to wiping?
I have also attached the adb logcat file recorded during the bootloop.
Thanks All!!
Resolved
I guess this forum is not quite as alive as some of the others, which makes sense considering the age of this device.
In any case here is a quick summary of what I went thru to successfully get the device working again. (and I still have all my pics/videos )
a) Answer to my first question below - After a loooot of googling, I couldn't figure out a way to recover without a wipe.
b) Answer to my second question - You will NOT lose data on your internal SD card when you do a wipe from (stock) recovery.
c) Answer to third question - There may be, but I was unable to figure it out. I'm fairly certain you can mount the internal SD manually from ADB if you have root and attempt to pull your files to your PC, but my device didn't have a rooted kernel, so I couldn't quite get this done.
Anyway, my other issue was that my Stock recovery was unresponsive as well. On selecting the wipe option for example, the screen would clear itself of all text and just display the Android w/ Exclamation background. I attempted to flash CWM recovery based on the steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2430190
However, I ended up with a corrupt screen when attempting to access this new recovery. (Don't know - May be because of improper rooting?)
I was able to successfully restore the device by flashing the stock recovery and ROM based on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133590 ,following the instructions for un-softbricking .
When I booted into recovery and attempted to wipe/factory reset, I got an error.
Code:
rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10
There was an additional step I had to take, which is clarified further below in the same thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27979493#post27979493 , which is to flash dbdata as well.
Doing this let me successfully wipe the device, which in turn let me finally get out of the damn bootloop.
Anyway, I hope all this helps someone. Thanks for being a great resource as usual XDA! :good:

Hi, guys.......new to the process....rooted my galaxy tab p1000 2.2 froyo with z4mod.
Then initially I installed cwm with ROM manager for galaxy tab T because there wasn't any specific model of cwm for p1000.
But but when I switched off and booted recovery, stock recovery always came......I could access cwm only through the ROM manager ("boot into recovery")....and that too if i choose any function it starts to load and when I press home twice it says "replacing stock with cwm" and that goes on forever...
So I installed cwm with Odin as I couldn't access functions like "install" in cwm without going into the loading phase.....but as the process in Odin finished, my tab started to boot and at "galaxy", the sceen got all pixalated and it went till " samsung " and the whole process looped........ Help!
