First things first - are you sure you are downloading the correct file for your s3 mini?
Second - do you have the latest recovery?
Finally, try to Re-download the zip file, you may have a bad download.
Hope this helps.

Can anyone Help Me Get Back to Rogers 2.1

I have a Samsung Captivate that was running 2.2 flashed by Keis.
I could not see all of my internal sd space so I wanted to flash a custom rom.
I have used Titanium Backup to back up my phone.
I then Tried to use AIO Captivate Toolbox 2.5 to flash back to stock.
Now every time that I try to boot my phone it goes into system recovery <2e>
at the bottom it says
update media, please wait ...
e:Can't mount /dev/block/st101
(invalid argument)
e:copy_DBdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy defaul tmedia content failed.
Please Help
Just to add to the last post I can still get into download.
download the file in my sig. Flash it with odin 1.3
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20958367/Odin3 v1.3.exe
I can walk you through it if you like.
I got 1.3 from the link that you gave me, but neither link in your signature works.
Could you post them again?

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20958367/I896UXJI2-homebinary.tar
Thank you so much.
I am downloading it now.
Just a few questions.
When I do odin what do I select pit, PDA or what?
Also do I have to change any of the options like re-partition?
Don't change any options at all. Open odin and leave it as is.
The file goes into the PDA section, no pit file is required.
odin did it's thing said pass 1:51.
Then it re-booted into android system recovery <2e>
What would you like me to do?
Exit recovery, and attempt to boot the phone.
I thought we had it but no luck.
it is still going into recovery
with this error
update media, please wait ...
e:Can't mount /dev/block/st101
(invalid argument)
e:copy_DBdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy defaul tmedia content failed.
try flashing the 2.2 one it has a different recovery 3e.
I am downloading now.
I will let you know what happens
Once it reboots it should go into recovery and install a bunch of files and then boot back up by itself.
It re-booted into recovery but got the same error.
It did not install any files or reboot again.

Reading that, its sounds exactly like what happened.
I don't know of any pit file for Rogers.
Thanks for your help nickm50
I will keep looking and see if I can find any way to fix this.
Maybe someone who has fixed the problem before will let us know how they did it.

E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists) Problem

Hello every one,
I tried to flash my Bell Samsung Galaxy GT I 9000M with gingerbread but things got messy and now I am stuck in bootloops...
I have already tried to flash back to the stock Eclair room but it's still not working.
I can still access download mode and recovery.
Here is the error message I get when I go into recovery:
E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount /sdcard
your storage not prepared yet, please UI menu for format and reboot actions
Media files copy failed.
I think I need the seperate PIT, PDA and PHONE files to flash via Odin ticking repartion, and then upgrade to last version avaible via kies to fix this. But I don't where to get this files for Bell Canada I9000M.
I don't know how to fix this. Can someone help me ?
Here was my phone stock configuration before all that happens:
Baseband version
I9000UGJL2
Firmware
2.2
Kernel
2.6.32.9
[email protected] #3
Build number
FROYO.UGJL2
galaxy s vibrant bell
gt-i9000m
Note: I hope I posted at the right place, if not the mods can feel free to move it
google searched and found this in an old thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-768441.html
http://www.multiupload.com/N62CDNXXXK I haven't downloaded the file so I'm not sure if it is 3 parts.
The other thing I'm thinking of (and I hope is not true), is the time when all Bell I9000M phones were dying after the official upgrade to froyo 2.2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=886158
Best of luck to you, sorry I can't be of more help as I'm not that experienced with this.
Thanks man.
I found a way to fix it. I installed back the stock I9000UGJL2 froyo via ODIN using 512 PIT file and repartition, then I got this new error message
E: can't mount /dev/block/stl10 (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
After that I followed this tuto http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=984140 to solve it.
Now I'm back on trail and I have to find a safer way to instal Gingerbread JVH.
I will try the method that you described me here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075144&page=2 but I would be happy to have some more details and the exact files I have to use...
I'm afraid to get in troubles again.
Thanks again for your help JJustin.
I found a way to solve my problem (i described it in the other thread I started http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14620127#post14620127).
Now eventhough I am not so confident, I will try to install gingerbread again using other methods.
I am open to any ideas. I will let you guys know if I get it right.
Thank you all.
If u want gingerbread follow darkys guide exactly and u will run gingerbread

Try and locate the exact csc file in .tar or .zip format for your model...sgs2 is galaxy S2 ( you are in the wrong forum).
you can flash .tar file using odin or .zip as update.zip using CWM to solve the problem. Try My Guides and Manuals link below for your phone specific links
ops iam sorry for that...
which file shoud i flash sorry i newbee @ that

suggest you try factory reset in CWM first, as that would solve CSC problems..
FIRST STEP for ALL Problems:-
Whenever you have a problem with your Phone, power it down, remove battery, remove SIM card and Ext SD card and press and hold your power button for at least 30 seconds to a min, before reinserting battery and trying any solution

i tried to do that but the recovery dont make it sir ..look @ forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1713419
Due to this error one can not do anything in recovery like backup, restore,wiping,flashing roms , etc. and which is very annoying. This happens because the CWM reject or failed to identify the root access of the device.
can i find recovery img for my phone?

1) What is your phone model?
2) when certain files are unavailable or cannot be located best option is to save all your important files ( in CWM , go to mount and storage, mount USB Storage and use USB cable to your PC...copy all (the entire SD card to your PC), After which you flash a stock ROM ( according to your model) using Odin in download mode.

[Q] Bricked, no download mode, odin won't see phone

Hi, I hope some can help me
Here´s my story, the phone is a Galaxy Ace GT-S5830m, that had GingerBread 2x, I wanted to take it to Kit kat 4x, then I downloaded the CWM 6.0.4.6, but, because of my ignorance, I didn't downloaded the KitKat rom file at the same time, I successfully installed the CWM file, but after this the phone won't boot. The only thing it does is:
Enter recovery mode by pressing Volume Up+Home+Power
Show the Samsung logo
But I cannot make it enter download mode, if I hit VolumeDown+Home+Power it just shows the Samsung logo
If I connect it to the PC via USB cable, the PC won't recognize the phone on the USB drivers list. I already downloaded the Samsung USB drivers
When I enter recovery mode I see the four options for
rebbot system now
apply update from sdcard
wipe date/factory reset
wipe cache partition
And below that I see --Appling Multi-CSC --
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
What can I do? I'm I done? Please help! Thanks!

Hi Raakib, thanks for taking the time to answer! But how can I put the cwm v5 in the phone if the PC doesn't see the phone? Sorry for the basic questions? I'm new in this things. The first time I did this I pluged the phone to the PC and I was able to see the memory card in the windows explorer so I only did a drag and drop, but that doesn't work any more, please advice, thanks!
just do 1 thing download the recovery file on your pc and then plug your sd card using any sort of card reader and then copy the file to memory card . Then insert the memory card in the phone and go to recovery and flash it. Hit thanks.

if u want that your pc should recognize your phone, take it to download mode and see it gets detected in odin or not , if not then swap the drivers maybe upgrade or downgrade.
still no luck

Hi Raakib, just to let you know that I haven't had any luck with this, this is what I have tried, with a memory card reader connect to my PC, because the PC still doesn't see the phone
Using CWM v5.0.2.6 and with that version trying to install the original rom I get this
-- Installing: /sdcard/Downloads/S5830MUMnD1_S5830MTCEND1_TCE.zip
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
Installation aborted.
So my attempt to recover gingerbread was unsuccessful, now, in all honesty I have no idea if I'm using the correct zip file of gingerbread, I mean, I downloaded from the sammobile page and choose the one for my country, but the instructions call for odin and to unzip the fiel, so I don't know if this zip file can just be copied to the SDcard and be unziped with CWM. So CMW needs special rom files different from the ones odin uses?
On my second attempt using CWM 6.0.4.6 to try to install kit kat 4.4 using the instructions from the androidcure website called "How to install Android KitKat on Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830", it mentions that I must use cwm v6 and the rom file called cm-11.0.0-RC4-GT-S5830-cooper-PS.zip I get this
-- Install /sdcard/Downloads ...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
This package is for "cooper.GT-S5830" devices: this is a "".
E:Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted
If I use cwm v5 to try to mount /system (which is permanently un-mounted) I get this
mount: mounting /dev/block/stl9 on /system failed: Invalid argument
W:failed to mount /dev/block/stl9 (File exists)
W:failed to mount /dev/blockstl9 (no such device)

The phone still won't go in download mode and is still not visible by the PC
Any other suggestion? Thanks!!!!
