[Q] Samsung Galaxy S: Black Screen after Flash

I have a SGS with firmware I9000XWJG5 and Root. I tried to do a Speed fix, but afterwards it was slower so i tried to flash the phone with the I9000XWJG5 firmware again.
After the flash, the phone rebooted and i came to the recovery menu. There the phone wrote:
update media, please wait
and in the next lines:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/st110
(invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy default media content failed.
Now when i try do start the phone, i get a black screen after the bright S
What i have tried: Flash agein with and without re-partition and Factory Reset
Has anybody an idea what i can do?
and sorry for my bad english

bump. can anyone help with this topic..
i am having some problem..
help us guys
thanks
Fixed... use odin 512

Thread moved in Galaxy S I9000 General.

I can definately help with this one, as I worked through it last night...
I found that if you're trying to flash the JG5 rom (as mentioned in Modaco's thread) with the 513 Pit file, then you'll get the black screen of despair!! For some reason the two combination of the two don't work.
However, if you do a google search for Odin PIT 512, then download this file
You will be able to download the 512 PIT file instead. Now use this in Odin3 to flash the JG5 rom and you should have no further issues....it worked for me.
I also discovered that Samsung have just released a later firmware, so I just flashed this one on top of the JG5 one...I have a nicely running phone now.
Hope this helps...it did me!
Mike

Mine was completely knackered. Couldn't get to recovery either. Flashed Modaco's MCR R3, after the JG5 flash, using all the files in the JG5 download. Working a treat...
Cheers,

Same here.
I tried JS3 and going back to JP6....and always the same result.
I'm obviously missing something. Maybe my 512.PIT is corrupted. I get the black screen and the same /dev/block.st110 errors in recovery.

i beleive you need to have a CSC file also for the odin flash.
i sorted mine like this:
Downloaded some JP2 odin files [used this as this was the only one on Samsung-firmwares that had all 3 PDA, Modem and CSC Files. flashed this using a .512 pit in odin. - this allowed the phone to boot normally.
connected to Kies and using reg hack [set to XEU] managed to update to JPY.
the following the Darky guide, flashed the CF Root kernel, installed the ROM Manager from the market, using the recovery mode installed the update.zip file for clockworkMod.
Formatted everything in ClockworkMod
Factory Reset in ClockworkMod
Installed Darky ROM V8.0 Wipe

thanks for your find !

cheers and thanks again for your find !

fix for black screen after flash with no recover or download mode working.
Hey All.
So like the subject says, you flash and then your phone restarts or whatever, and then you get the normal galaxy s startup, with the sound and the visuals, but then that's it. Henceforth you are greeted with the two lights (if its a Bell Vibrant) from your options and back keys.
To fix it use the attached file. Its called ADB or something - I just know it works. It was a fix for the galaxy s phones that didnt have the recovery/download mode stock.
so here is how it goes:
1. download adb to your desktop and unpack it (if its in winrar or zip or whatever) to a file folder named adb.
2. open a command prompt.
3. type "cd" and then the address of the "adb" folder. so for example it should be in C:\Users\your user name\Desktop\adb. where "your user name" is your user name a duh.
4. plug in your galaxy s via usb.
5. type "adb reboot download" in the command prompt. copy it using your mouse as well.
6. turn on your phone.
7. press enter in the command prompt, then keep copying and pasting and pressing enter until you see the download screen on your phone. each time you press enter it says device not connected or something but just keep trying.
the article i read:
can't post it but the thread is called "How to get the 3 button recovery mode working"

[Q] P1000N with DBDATA problem

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000N (Latin Version) stuck with P1000NUBJM2 Version 2.2 which haves a protected bootloader!! It just won't boot to apply a patch to the bootloader and the problem is giving me the DBDATA can't mount error!! That firmware file just won't rewrite dbdata.
Is there anyway of repairing the dbdata so I can boot up the P1000N?
Thanks

I have the exact same unit and it works fine with the Bootloader Patch. did you root your device before doing this?

Solution to dbdata problem
Flash the attached file using odin.
1) unzip it,
2) Open Odin
3) put your SGT on dowload mode and conect it
4) select the .tar file on PDA, dont use .pit file and then flash it with Odin,
It worked for me, tell me if it works for you.

thanks dear it works like charm.

[Q] Galaxy tab SHW-M180l (korean Version) soft Bricked

Hi all I was trying to update my firmware vie Kies and my computer froze up during the load. Now my tab is stuck at Android system recovery with an error message "E:failed to mount /cache (invalid argument)
I tried firmware recovery with kies but it doesn't show any failed attempts and it is asking for a recovery code.
I downloaded the stock firmware from matcl.com and tried to reinstall with Odin. It says success, but I still have the same error on my TAB. I tried wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition and try to reinstall but still nothing.
When I wipe data cache partition I get the error "E:forrmat_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl111"
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Update
I tried to flash HOME_M180L.TF24.1533_CL319576_REV03_user_low_ship.tar with odin and no pit file, same result
I tried to flash tegrak-kernel-build-19-for-M180L-ED25.tar to attempt recovery, now I get failed to mount /system. errno= invalid argument
If I re-flash the HOME_M180L.TF24.1533_CL319576_REV03_user_low_ship.tar I get back to the /cache error
From research I believe that the partitions are all screwed up but I haven't found a way to restore them.
Any help would be appreciated

Does anyone know the right pit file to go with the stock firmware? My firmware was 2.3.4 before it got all screwed up.

I took it to the Samsung service center today, they say the main board needs replaced, can a failed kies update do that?

hello ppl i have

firmware version: 2.2
baseband : Unknown

check to link from above's thread. the link would be in korean but all you need to do is download all zips and join them with 7-zip or ALZip (both available at CNet).

[Q] i need help for my friend's sgs 1

hi frnd i own a Xperia Neo V but here i am for my frnd he has did something wrong with his phone and its not booting up i can enter recovery/download mode i just want to knwo how to flash i9000
i have downloaded
Flashprogram Samsung I9000 + Pits
firmware version XAJW5_XEU from samfirmware
i have flashed 5830 and 5801 but i dont find odin to be similar as them
can any1 tell me how to flash i9000 and what pit to use cause i can see 3 pits in it
803
513
512
or a full procedure will be helpful
am just trying to help my frnd to fix his S1

you will need to have the galaxy S drivers installed on the computer they can be downloaded and installed as part of Kies or seperatly from a thread in the I9000 (SGS) section of XDA just search for "Samsung Drivers.exe"
As for flashing Phone put it into download mode and connect USB cable
If the file downloaded is a single file .TAR place into PDA of odin
if 3 file place PDA into PDA, CSC into CSC and PHONE into PHONE and flash.
Most GingerBread ROMs use 512 PIT check on samfirmware as to the suggested PIT file.
NOTE a pit file is not always required but cannot hurt. just ensure that repartition is not checked

what will happen if i re partition it.. will it format everything

re partition will fully wipe the OS partitions, not the SDcard partition but sometimes errors do occur with the SDcard.
The ROM on the phone does retain a copy of the PIT file and can access it during a odin flash.
it is very important to use the correct pit file for the rom or it will not boot

[Q] Problem during update Samsung Galaxy TAB GT-P1000

Hi,
i have samsung galaxy tab gt-p1000 with android 2.2,
i saw on youtube: "How to update Galaxy Tab P1000 to 2.3.6 Gingerbread" (in order to finaly update it to 4.4)
after i run the ODIN with the PIT and PDA file, the process ended successfully but the galaxy stuck in samsung logo after reboot.
What can i do ? how do i first make it load again ? and how can i update it to android 4.4 ?
i neve root it or something, the first action i took is the one described above.
PLEASE HELP (+:
Thanks

Did you remember to wipe data and cache from recovery after installing with Odin?
If that doesn't work, have you tried to return to Froyo and see if it boots?

If you have a sdcard,
Put cm9 based thing in it, flash cf root with cwm(by Odin)
Then you can go recovery.
Flash cm9 first and you can go any ROM.
Don't forget to wipe!
