Sprint SGT - E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Hi there Galaxy Tab community!
I'm having trouble fixing a Sprint Galaxy Tab (SPH-P100, CDMA).
I have tried a lot of different solutions and none of them are working for me.
Maybe someone can point out what the issue with my SGT is.
Current status: will get stuck at the "glowing" Samsung Logo (have let it sit for 15-20 minutes after reflashes but still stays there)
I don't really know how to explain this issue so I'm hoping one of you kind members can explain this to me. In Android system recovery <3e> mode before I did any flashing I get this error notice:
# MANUAL MODE #
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(no such file or directory)
E:Can't mount CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't open CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(no such file or directory)
Is E: the SD card?
I do not have an SD card put in. And when I do, the above error message still appears. There is no SD card mounting error notice. And attempting to do an SD card update.zip does attempt successfully.
Now after trying to ODIN flash back to stock firmware (EA24, DJ30, stock with no modem) they all flash successfully, but all of them still get stuck at glowing samsung logo. And I still get the above mounting error message in recovery.
I did not tick "re-partition" yet, would this make a difference? (I tried searching for what it does but couldn't find any explanation)
Would flashing with Heimdall be any different than ODIN?
And the other solution I read was to reformat the internal SD to rfs format using roto JME (but I think that's only for GSM support?)
ANy help/suggestions would be appreciated!
UPDATE!!!: FIXED!!
Followed this step by step carefully and exactly from step 1 - 7: posted by emieczko (THANK YOU!!!!)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13113921&postcount=21
so now I have to figure out if I still get the above error about E:.. but im scared if its really fixed for good. I will keep this updated! I love this forum!
UPDATE 2: shoot.. spoke too soon haha, tried to do a reflash of EA24 through heimdall and now in original situation. Only attempted another flash because each time i shutdown and restarted it would get stuck, until i would go into recovery and do a factory wipe/ clear cache, which would allow it to then boot to android.
UPDATE3: humm interesting, the OP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11650984&postcount=1 actually worked and booted right after a successful flash of the no_modem stock firmware using ODIN and the pit file supplied. and the crazy part is, it still had my gmail account info saved even after i had 'factory reset' a few times when it wouldnt boot up correctly.
UPDATE 4: Okay managed to update from stock no modem (tab_sprint_noModem_20101226) using odin 1.3, then ODIN the EA24 (Sprint Galaxy Tab EA24 Flasher) successfully with first boot attempt! Then since this was more of an official flash, EB25 was downloaded and installed with first boot success! Then the next update before Gingerbread, and then gingerbread OTA was installed successfully with first boot success!!! So now under gingerbread rom everything seems to be working smoothly. no problems with the market, wifi issues seem to be fixed.. only last real thing to make it an officially fixed tab is rebooting and seeing if it boots okay and booting into recovery and seeing if the E: errors still occur.. both which I don't want to face atm haha.\
UPDATE 5: So I was able to successfully reboot 3 times in a row. The method I used was the tablet plugged in with charger the entire time. I noticed upon removal of charger, apps would force close within minutes if i attempt to open even more apps system reboot and hang would occur. The only solution to get it up and working again is to plug the charger back in, then factory reset/ wipe cache and reboot. (FYI: first boot after a factory reset, the tab should vibrate on the 3rd-8th "glow" cycle of the samsung logo. if you see the logo loop.. then yea its boot loop haha). Attemping to boot the tab up without charger plugged in, causes a boot logo hang.. I'm starting to suspect defective tablet :-\
UPDATE 6: Looks like this tablet functions 100% normal when plugged in via USB to PC or Charger. Booting into recovery does not show any failed mounts (reboot into recovery 3 tmies) UNTIL i unplug it and try to reboot into recovery again. ACCIDENTALLY flashed the DK28 (epic 4g) modem! ahhhh after reading all the warnings .. fortunately I was able to ODIN the pit and EA24 rom successfully and the GPS still works. AT the moment I am letting the tablet incrementally update itself to gingerbread (while it is plugged in via usb to pc). And done.. now to do more unorthodox tests to see why its failing with no usb plugged
UPDATE 7: I think this is a hardware issue.. seems to only work normal when plugged in. doh.

So even after flashing the stock EA24 rar in Odin, it just sits at the boot logo and won't do anything? That is odd. In the stock recovery did you do a factory data wipe?

Does anybody the average time ti takes to stay on that glowing Samsung Logo after a factory reset/ flash?
edit: nevermind, its less than 10 glowing logo cycles.

Here is the best way to sovle the problem.
if your TAB stuck in the logo ,and recovery got the tips, the IC sandisk "sdin5d2-2g" on the mainboard is broblem .I let some body who is good at repairing mobile phone to use tools to take the IC out ,and throw it into bin. I go back home unpack the zImage kernel ,modify the file in it ,such as fota.rc,recovery.fstab , (in Ubuntu , grep mmblk * */* */*/* ) ,let the mmcblk0p1 for sdcard ,mmcblk0p3 for cache mmcblk0p4 for data , and repack the kernel . Then I repartition my kingston 8g C6 TF card to four primary partition,5.4 for the 1st ,180m for the 2nd ,190m for the 3th ,2G for the 4th. At last I use heimdall to reflash zhe new zImage into kernel and recovery .When the tab reboot ,let it into recovery and wipe the data and cache and reboot . After 10mins ,you will get the first setting for the tab.
here is my new zImage: /115。com/file/dnm9n22m#

"booted back in recovery and tried to do a data wipe, every time i try it freezes and reboots after a few seconds and doesnt do the wipe"
CWM wipe data causes freeze seem to suggest there are damage in the data partition. There are tools and guide in the thread below which may help to check if there is damage in partition and a solution to that problem. In case you have not read it.

Stuck in Boot Animation

My wifes phone started to act up last night so I suggested that she reboot it. However, upon rebooting it just gets stuck at
the Boot Animation. Any ideas on how to resolve this? I guess I have to flash a new rom? I am also thinking of flashing it
back to stock rom is it possible in this state?
Thanks.

try to wipe everything in recovery and reboot, If Fails, try flash a kernel .tar in download mode with Odin, If fails, than you have no choice but to go into download mode and Flash the ROM you want

I already tried to reflash a stock rom (XXJVT) via odin, then it worked initially, then it hangs... and when I restarted its again stuck at the
boot animation. Any ideas?

use heimdall, download the Rescue kit for i9000, contains complete package for linux
updated the Collections. check out Quick Solutions,

Bro, you are not Cf-rooted. Tell us more about your phone so that you can get the correct clockworkmod recovery.

I had a similar problem. The solution I found that worked, based on a suggestion elsewhere, was to flash the new (stock) ROM twice in a row. Have no idea why this worked.

The story on this phone is that I got it July of last year and somewhere in Feb/Mar of this year
I installed a CustomRom for the first time, SlimICS, then I gave it to my wife as I got a GalaxyNote.
Then about a week ago it started to act up, at first it keeps on rebooting, then it starts to
show a message after reboot that encrytion has failed and has to be factory reseted, my wife
just basically ignore the message and just reboot again... it worked for a while, then the other
day, it rebooted itself into recovery, and when booted everything is just amiss, forceclose everywhere
notification is missing... so I thought maybe time for a new ROM or something, so I decided to
bring it back to Stock GB Rom first... but even this I cant seem to accomplish.
Anyways I just tried to flash the package Rescue kit for i9000 suggested by xsenman from heimdall,
but still after rebooting, it goes to recovery with this error:
--Copying media files
E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Cant mount /sdcard
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI
menu for format and reboot actions.
Meida files copy failed.
--Wiping data...
Formatting /data
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblkOp2
Formatting /dbdata
Formatting /cache
Deleted Meta Data

Also if I may add, I cant seem to turn the unit off without taking the battery out, because it just keeps on going back to
recovery.
Any ideas?

had the solution for this added to Quick Solutions, just click Collections for Android below, scroll down and try it.

You are boot looping because you don't have /dbdata. This seems to he normal when flashing back to stock. Do a search for a galaxy s dbdata.tar and flash it under pda in Odin. Thats what I have to do.
Good luck

[Q] Can´t restore recovery / adb / SD not recognize

Hi!!
First, I was trying to find some solution, here and google, but every one that could work, don´t.
I was trying to install CyanogenMod 10.1
I followed the installation guide... but when I have to choose CM zip file, I choosed another one from other sell (I was using the same card)
The CM that I use was this: cm-7.2.0-jordan.zip (from a defy phone)
instead cm-10.1-20130621-NIGHTLY-janice.zip
Everything goes bad since that.
I tried to wipe data/factory reset:
E: format_volume: fs_type "ext3" unsupported
E: Can´t mount /cache/reovery/log
E: Unknow fs_type "ext3" for /cache
I tried to update from external storage
But only shows me this: " ../ "
I tried to apply update from ADB
I followed the guide, copy the roms on self directory, put the 4 files on c:\windows , etc.
This are the common errors that shows me:
C:\Windows\Herramientas Sideload>adb sideload gapps-jb-2013
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
* failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)' *
I tried kill the adb.exe like this, but doesn´t works
error: closed adb
I tried this but doesn´t works
I found nothing that could help more, so that´s way I making this post.
Here is some data:
GT-i9070
Windows 7 64bits
Kies updated (but could connect to the device now)
I think that drivers of the cell are updated, because windows shows me that... buy i don´t know if is the correct one.
I will be very grateful if you can help. I hope this can be fixed ..
Best regards!!
PS: sorry my english.

Can you enter in download mode with vol down+home+power when phone is switched off?

Reflash stock jelly bean with Odin, then flash CoCore kernel for CWM recovery, and retry to flash CM10.1. To do that:
1-Because your pc doesn't recognize the device uninstall Kies and install only usb drivers (you can download install package here)
2-Download Odin and i9070 Stock Jelly Bean firmware from samfirmware (I recommend i9070XXLQG PDA)
3-Extract downloaded zip, you will find three files (one .dll, one .pit and one .tar.md5)
4-Launch Odin, select "Re-Partition" and leave others as they are. Press "PIT" button and select .pit file in extracted firmware's zip file, then press "PDA" and select .tar.md5 file in same directory.
5-Enter in download mode like I said you early and connect device to pc, press "Start" button on Odin and wait for the "SUCCESS" message, now your phone should power on normally.
6-Now download this zip file (for obtain root access) and put in sd card (micro sd, not internal memory!)
7-Turn off your phone, press vol up+home+power to enter recovery, select "apply update from external storage" then select root.zip, reboot device.
8-Now you have stock jelly bean rooted, update SuperSU from Google Play and install Universal Kernel Flash from frapeti (you can find it on Play Store).
9-Download CoCore Kernel here, take kernel.bin.md5 file from zip package and put it in internal storage.
10-Launch Universal Kernel Flash, select kernel.bin.md5 and flash it.
11-Power off phone and enter again in recovery with vol up+home+power, now you should have CWM-based recovery, select "backup and restore" and take a full system backup.
12-Wipe data, cache and dalvik and retry to install CM10.1-janice, in case something goes wrong or you want to remove CM without flash again with Odin you can restore your system backup from CWM.

Could be that why is wrong? I´m downloading one more... this time without the Kies sign. I bet that is the probelm.

it´s getting worst
Now when I turn on the phone, the screen looks with diagonals strips.
And only the download mode is working... no more for upload mode.
:crying:

Well... i was looking for that error... and could be the cable and the usb port.
I changed each one, and still don´t works.
Remove the SD, remove the sim, and every time get me the same error.
Anything else?

Which .pit you have? The name of the correct one is: GT-I9070_EUR_XX_8G.pit for 8GB memory. Your have 8GB or 16GB of memory?

This one, but it came with the odin... I think.
u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit
I will look for the correct one :good:

Always use specific pit file of a device, each Samsung device have it, for example I can't use i9000's pit file on i9070. Which model is? 8 or 16? Because the two models have different pit file

Now I know...
8gb model.

Excellent, next time be careful when you're flashing roms

Thanks for the advice harith.unnikrishnan and Tesla-MADAL93

Best regards!!

It was not catastrophic. It would be if you flashed wrong firmware with Odin. :silly:

Cannot Factory Reset Through CWM

Can anyone help me with my problem? :crying:
Galaxy S3 Mini(GT-I8190), rooted,and no custom ROM(Stock ROM Installed). I cannot go to my homescreen so yeah.. :crying:
I'm using CWM recovery v6.0.2.7, when i will do "wipe data/factory reset" and press yes the phone will restart immediately and nothing happens it didn't reformat my phone either like nothing happens. I stuck at boot loop with "galaxy s3 mini logo" and keep restarting it self, while turning on the LED light(menu and back) below blinks 3 times i don't know what does it means. I reinstalled stock firmware from sammobile like few months i did when trying to fix in boot loop but now it won't work, while installing stock firmware via ODIN, i notice something that there is a red colored message below "custom binary download" the message is "movi_write card_status:2 ...", btw my binary counts is 15 does it matter with this red thing message?, my "Current Binary" and "System Status" are in "Custom" but my firmware last time is Stock Firmware.
I tried installing new Recovery mode with TWRP via ODIN and it says PASS and restarts my phone and i take off the battery and goes to recovery mode and it appears that it doesn't take me to TWRP, it is like that the TWRP that i flashed via ODIN didn't install to my phone and CWM is still running in my recovery, i feel like CWM won't let me to factory/reset my phone so i changed to TWRP but it won't let me.

Please help me guys :crying:

Oh sh*t the exact same happened with me! Try looking for a param.tar file for your device?

Just that I had Maclaw's CM11 installed on my phone. I had the movi card status thing as well so maybe it could mean that the NAND (internal storage device) is corrupted or messed up? Yeah try looking for a param.tar file for a GT-I8190, because there's different variants for the S3 mini like GT-I8190N which is NFC, GT-I8190L which is the Latin version and stuff like that. Also flash the correct type of ROM as well. Good luck with everything.

oh hey thanks for replying to me , i already use the PARAM_I8190 after flashing the stock rom but it still stuck at bootloop. O hey i found the red message "movi_write card_status:2 ... start:blk: ..." while flashing the stock rom, i downloaded 2 or 3 more stock roms but still the same with the same thing red message and stuck at boot loop.
I can access to download mode and recovery mode but when i do factory reset/data in recovery mode it will restart the phone immediately but after that restart my old files in my phone are still there it likes nothing happens when i want to format my phone.

I don't think anything can help, so copy everything from your internal storage to your computer and return the phone to your seller maybe?

I hope so but i can't for now, ill just leave this thing alone and wait for more people to help me with this problem.

Maybe wipe via Odin?
There's a file WIPE_I8190.tar.md5, which should also deletes the files. Try to use it through Odin! Just be sure to have all important data saved on your PC
I'm sorry but I can't upload the file for you, because I'm still a new user at xda But you'll find it I downloaded it just a few days ago
If this doesn't work experiment around with the Param-File, the Recovery-File etc.
I had problems with my S3Mini, too, got it so much destroyed that I just was able to access Downloadmode, not even the Recovery and got it full back to life There are always ways

I already tried everything using these files, WIPE_I8190, PARAM_I8190, Stock Firmware, and PIT FILE through odin. I'm getting this red message "movi_write card_status:2 (...) start: ... blk: ..." while performing all files through odin and says PASS, except for PARAM_I8190 there is no red message. I cannot fix anymore by my own, if anyone knows how to fix it please tell me

bump thread :'(

You don't even need any custom recovery to do Wipe Data/Factory Reset (that's mean /data and /cache partition will be formatted), you can do this by stock recovery.
Put phone in Download Mode and flash original firmware for your device in Odin.
Than go to stock recovery and Wipe Data.
And post here log from Odin after flashing soft.
Or from custom recovery, if working, you can flash script which will unmount /data, /cache, /system, /sdcard and do format all these partitions.

When i do "Wipe Data/Factory Reset", formating the /data through CWM recovery(v6.0.2.7), accessing the download folder(internal sdcard) and "wipe dalvik cache" my phone restarts immediately. Still not booting to homepage. The stock firmware were i installed is the same firmware that i used in my current phone. I tried to used other custom ROM is it called CM 11 and 12 by maclaw, but it still the same it won't boot to homepage and the red message is still there while installing the firmware. I just tried this I8190XXANI4_I8190OXXANI1_VDR stock firmware earlier still nothing

Have you trying format /system, /cache, /data to f2fs? On TWRP should be that option. And then install CM11.
But this really looks like device storage is broken (mmcblk0), if is, than the last option can be to have good quality external sdcard(mmcblk1) and making some new partitions (/modemfs, /efs, /system, /data, /cache). Than you know, this is only my thinking, but maybe this is a option to skip even broken eMMC...using external SD card like inbuilded eMMC memory.

If this mmcblk1 extSDCard will work, can i root my phone again and install custom ROM's? Where to get this mmcblk1 extSDCard thing?
I'm gonna send my phone to samsung this Tuesday to fix my phone worth of $30 to fix this thing i hope so.... i don't want to tell them to me that they need to replace my eMMC that cost a lot of money.

mmcblk0 - this is whole memory of your device parted to partitions (/system, /efs, /modemfs, /kernel, /internal_sd etc.)
mmcblk1 - this is removable sdcard, has normally only one partition (mmcblk1p1) which is storage for your music, pictures, videos etc.
My idea is to partition mmcblk1 to more part (almost same like mmcblk0), edit kernel to mount new partitions as /system, /data, /cache and boot up ROM from here.
