[Q] E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110 [Solved]

Hi, i am a newbie of Android. i flashed my Captivate to I9000ZSJPD, but found that the rotation has some problem. So, i tried to flashed other different rom many many times and try to fix up. I believe i make sometime wrong in between and bricked my phone... anyway, i tried to fix it by ADB in download mode
And now, it will going to recovery mode in opening...
and show:
_______________________________________________
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Cant's mount
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI me
nu for format and reboot actions
copy default media content failed
_______________________________________________
(I tried to flash I9000TGYJH1, I9000XXJP3, I9000XWJP6, I9000XXJPM, but still show it when starting)
i guess i need to format internal sd-card??? however, in this kernel,
The screen show "Enter: OK Key", but my Captivate seem no "OK Key", and all keys are not working except UP and DOWN....
if i reinstall "kernel-captivate-stock.tar.md5", it can be use "power key" to choice, but no format, or wipe data/factory rest option....
What should i do? Pls help me...

Try and Odin 1-click back to stock. Sounds like you might've had a lag-fix installed and you can't format the internal SDCard.
Odin should overwrite and format it starting you off fresh.
Either way.. your not totally screwed yet. Keep plugging away.

Thanks so much Avgjoegeek!, it's work again!

I am having the exact same problem on Rogers 896. I have tried the ODIN 1-click but it just seems to hang on either the Master Clear or the Rom flash. How long should it take? It seems fairly straightforward, am I missing something?

"E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (Invalid argument) E:/copy_data_default_apk:Can'

"E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (Invalid argument) E:/copy_data_default_apk:Can'
I know you guys don't like new posts, but I've spent the past 2 days trying to figure this out and I am about to give up.
I'll just lay this out in bullets and this is just a last attempt before I throw this phone out:
Phone: GT-i9000 bought full price from Bell, unlocked running on Fido
Rom Installed: ROM Name: All In One Edition Version: 7.0 Developer: Spike_M Firmware: XXJPY
I shut the phone off because it stopped responding to any touches, turn it back on and its stuck on the SAMSUNG GALAXY S Logo.
Can enter DOWNLOAD mode using three button combo, but not RECOVERY mode.
This means that I tried to flash a new FW using ODIN. What I tried to flash:
Used:
Odin3 v1.3
PDA = I9000XXJPU-REV03-PDA-low-CL747761.tar
PIT = s1_odin_20100512.pit
PHONE = MODEM_I9000XXJPU.tar.md5
CSC = GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJPU.tar.md5
When I click Start on Odin with either ☐ Re-Partition or ☑ Re-Partition, it reboots into RECOVERY mode, "Wipes Data", and gives me this error message:
HTML:
"E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (Invalid argument) E:/copy_data_default_apk:Can't mount DBDATA: your storage and not prepared yet. Please use UI menu for format and reboot actions."
and just hangs.
I found this link: forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/6433-solved-messed-up-partitions-on-internal-storage
and tried the solution. I can access the adb shell when the phone is stuck in recovery mode, but I don't have root access so I can't push any files like parted onto the /sbin folder because it says "Permission denied"
If anyone can tell me if phone is a lost cause, I can stop trying already and get on with my life. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it. Thanks a lot.

my "E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1" problem has been solved by this.
It may not be the same problem but the following solved my "E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1" problem, not "E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2". I used JM2, 512 pit.

1. Enter your phone in dl-mode, but don't connect yet.
2. Open Odin, tag re-partition, auto reboot and f.reset time, make sure efs clear and bootloader -fields are NOT checked. select CORRECT PIT-file (2.1 ROMS usually 512, 2.2 ROMs many times 803, samfirmware always tells which one to use next to the dl-link of a ROM-file), enter your phone in dl-mode, plug, wait it to be recognized by Odin.
3. Click start, wait until Odin shows PASSED, unplug your phone, remove the battery for 30 seconds, enter dl-mode again, don't plug just yet.
4. In Odin, click Reset. Then select PDA, Modem and CSC files compatible with the PIT-file used in re-partition, plug your phone, make sure re-partition NOT checked and no PIT-file selected (once again, make sure you use correct PDA for the PIT you flashed). auto-reboot and f.res.time should be selected. Make sure efs clear and bootloader -fields are NOT checked.
4- Plug your phone and when recognized, click start. Wait to be passed. Now your phone will boot (or if not, boot manually) and should work just fine.
Edit: Try to put Eclair ROM, for example JM2, not jpa, and see if it works better.

Thanks, I'll try that and report back to you...

Help I f***ed up :(

So I rooted my Galaxy s(bell) and put speedmod kernel on it, I then tried to install a theme which partially worked but now I get "the process android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly" every few seconds and any time I try to do something I was unable to do anything at all really. So I then installed dark core kernel and that did not change anything, I restored to factory default and that did not stop the error(Even though all data was wiped). So I then formatted system under dark core recovery(Bad idea?) and now I can't get past the Samsung Galaxy 19000M boot screen(Assuming because there is no system files now that I wiped them?). I can access dark core recovery and download mode....What can I do?

flash jvk(gingerbread) or jl7(froyo) system files useing odin 1.3+

Www.samfirmware.com or search the forum. I think he meant jl2

The trouble was flashing a theme onto a stock ROM. Unless a ROM has been deodexed it can't be themed, so for themeing you need a custom ROM or one prepared using doc's kitchen. Just swapping a new kernel does not allow you to install a theme. Flash a stock theme in download mode from odin and then start again, you will be fine.
There are lots of guides about how to do that here.

Have you tried factory reset/wipe data in recovery mode? this may not work but worth a try
I keep I9000XXJPU on my PC because it has saved my ass in the past when i bricked my phone, it has all the files required to use in odin to flash. just get into download mode, open odin, attach files into specified areas, connect phone then start
make sure to look here, follow step and your all good

[Q] Samsung Galaxy "can't mount..."

Hello everybody,
first of all: congratulations for this helpful and amazing forum. I love reading and testing the roms which are offered here.
I just tried the Hybrid v 5.0 rom - the best i ever tested. Everything was smoothie and very harmonic.
Unfortunately it was not possible to write emails and to connect with Samsung Kies.
So i decided to use the known 2.3.4 version which works satisfiying.
To prepare the phone i made a wipe data/factory reset.
After reseting the phone shows me - when turned on and booting - the logo of Galaxian Kernel and the blue "loading beam" with the notice "is loading now."
But it doesnt quit loading.
The cwm shows me:
"E: can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: unknown volume for path [/cache/recovery/log]
E: can't mount /cache recovery/log
E: can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: unknown volume for path [cache/recovery/last_log]
....
"
Maybe some important datas are erased?
I really don't know what to do now.
Could you please give me some helpful advices (please use the easiest words because i'm no expert...) ?
Greetings from Germany

For connecting kies you just have to install one patch, it will connect.
Regarding resetting, some files i deleted for utilizing space, which required for factory reset thats why you getting that.
let me explain why i delete that files, see when someone switch ROM ever developer want that user do fresh install but usualy people are lazy so they simply flash rom on other ROM, by deleting that files i conform that if someone want to change ROM then he had to flash first stock rom then other ROM so atleast he didnt got error or didnt able to claim that he coming from that ROM and so he getting this error.
btw for both issue why didnt u asked for patch, its easy task for me to make cwm for that and you able to connect kies and able to do factory reset.

Thank you very much for your fast answer.
i didn't thought about asking, sorry..
That's right. Before flashing your great rom i used the clear 2.3.4 firmware. I did the whole procedure as described here. Use a stock rom and than the other rom.
What could i do right now?
My phone doesn's start. "is loading now... " is written under the logo of Galaxian Kernel. The phone doesn't boot, isn't known by the PC, so i don't know what to do....

Boot to recovery and try wipe almost everything you can, factory reset, cache, dalvik-cache.
I remember one firmware gave me some errors about mounting and wiping stuff always fixed it.

I tried as you proposed but following message appears:
E: unknown volume for path [/data]
...
E: Unable process volume! Skipping...
Checking /cache...
Doesn't that mean that the necessary datas aren't there?
After wiping of all proposed things i tried to restart, but the blue beam under Galaxian still stops when it almost reached the end.

The main problem was Kies.
Phone couldn't be connected, so i couldn't fix the problem.
I just had to update the drivers so that the PC could connect to my little friend. Now it works
Thanks a lot for your help!!

Hi,
I've got the exact same problem.
Tried to flash Galaxian over Odin because my phone was in a boot loop. Then it just stuck when the Galaxian kernel "is now loading" screen appeared.
I can access Recovery and wiped data aswell as cache partition- then I just tried to flash Galaxian a second time with Odin but I have the same problem with the "is now loading" screen now.
Plus I updated Kies drivers.
What can I do? Im really not that experienced but I really NEED my phone!

Stuck without a OS

Good Morning
Very ironic,but i came here to ask about rooting my phone a year back and now i'm back in sort of the same situation..
A year back I rooted my froyo 2.2.1 based Galaxy S to a gingerbread version,then i used quite a few of the ICS roms available on this forum,had been using Cyanogen for the past few months.Yesterday i had some free time,so i thought would check out the JB roms available.
So i did the usual,download the JB version of Fishears since i had a iNand.put it in my internal sdcard..but i could not access the memory card from CWM 5.0.2.7..,so i put it in my external memory card and tried to run the zip from there,but the process got aborted in the middle,tried it twice,dint work.
Then i remembered i had faced this internal memory problem before,had to go and switch on the debugging mode in the developer option.[P.S:- i had been facing the encryption successful problem for half a year,was too lazy/busy to fix it,i just took it in my stride and rebooted a lot to get into the homepage]
So,I'm in CWM and i run the usual process and run the zip file from the internal sdcard,it started out fine,them BOOM.my phone reboots all of a sudden.When it restarts,it does not have a OS to boot into,the green android image with a red exclamation mark and a few text appears which happens too fast to read and it keeps rebooting and this process goes on.
I can still access CWM and the download mode,i tried going into CWM but the internal sd doesnt open and the zip file fails to mount from the external sd.
So i thought **** it,i'll do the rooting part again and i run up ODIN,download the semaphore 2.7.4 kernel,and i see it is just 15 mb or so,i remembered i used more than 1 file and used the pit folder also,but i read it on the semaphore website,its only 1 file and have to use it as the PDA.went to download mode and odin recognised it and the process completed without a hitch,it even showed a green PASS..
but the problem came when it had to reboot after the process,it got stuck in the "Galaxy S GT I9000" page and never moved forward.it was there for 30 minutes or so before i pulled out the battery.
Basically
1.I cant get past that page
2.I can access the CWM and Download modes
3.I accepted my mistake and thought of not doing any more mistakes,so icame here
4.When i boot into CWM mode,these errors come
E:failed to open/etc/recovery.fstab (No such file or directory)
E:unknown volume for path[/cache/recovery/command]
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

I followed the steps given in the EZ recovery mode,it crashed into the same e3 recovery mode,for the heck of it i flashed the CFROOT which was provided and it worked fine..all disks were mounted fine and no errors in cwm,
went into Mounts and storage and formatted everything apart from boot and followed the rest of samtans advice
It crashed into the same e3 Rec mode again with the same meta data error message
any suggestions guys,atleast now i'm hopeful after seeing that CWM screen without any errors

Ok dont know whether this is good or bad
I installed CM9 from the external sd as the internal sd was inaccesible in any way..the installation showed info like
"the internal sd card marker could not be found
Going ahead with installation"
the installation continues and restarts once and updates but it does not boot into the main page,it directly goes into the Encryption Unsuccessful page.When i try Reset Phone,it goes into the CWM recovery screen with some errors,
when i try to install CM10 from this recvery screen,it initially stops the installation saying the data partition layout is different and all my data will be wiped.run the .zip to go ahead with the progress.I run this it goes directly into the CWM 6.0._._ and it doesnt show any errors,i try to reboot it gets stuck on the galaxy s screen.
this situation is better than the previous condition as i know a OS can still run on my Phone..Just need to get this thing rectified now

Please if anyone could help me right now,i would be really grateful..not able to contact anyone without my phone

It might be a hardware problem... I had something similar

But for now go to Ez recovery and then try Darky's Resuruction ROM.

I installed Cyanogen 9 and got through tht EU page by restarting abut 20 times or so,now i'm trying to install a working version of gapps in it.Tried 1 but the setup failed,so i flashed back to Cyanogen 9 and am not touching it till i reach home.a device capable of making and taking calls is better than nothing..
Is there a way to download contacts from gmail without gapps,the play store is not included in the original rom and i'm hesitant to go into CWM recovery mode as i will have to tackle the EU page again
Anyways thanks for your help,will have to fix this problem once and for all after i reach home

I don't know about contacts from gmail. When you're home look at my updated post above
