So im rooted, clockworked and nandroided. i go into rom manager and attempt to partition the sd, everything looks like it went fine. i get the samsung splash tmo bootup then it goes from the S splash screen to what seems to be a soft brick, just a blank screen and four lit up buttons. i try to boot into clockwork and i get the factory recovery mode. Clockwork is nowhere to be found. my sd card appears to be partitioned it shows a 14.8g card on a 16g, but the sd card still has everything on it, it did not get wiped. i have tried using odin, all that happens there is it runs through the motions, resets the phone back into this soft brick. anyone have similar issues or helpful ideas? i will be slowly bashing my head into the wall waiting for a reply. thanks in advance, any help will be appreciated
Same Problems Here
I came on to post and hopefully find a solution for a very similar problem. I rooted, clockworked, and nandroided my vibrant this morning and it worked fine all day. I got home and realized my phone was locked and didn't respond to the unlock button. I pulled the battery and rebooted and it all seemed fine. 5 minutes later i realized it wasn't responsive and once again pulled the battery and now won't boot past the "S" boot screen and seems to freeze. Now my clockwork restore won't backup and says it can't mount. I've tried a factory reset to no avail. Anytime I attempt a clockwork recovery I get the error
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(file exists)
Can't mount /data/!
Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
I'm having the same issue, any help would be greatly appreciated.
did anyone get any help??
Same thing happened to me. I posted such on the market comment for rom manager. I ended up taking mine back to Best Buy (got another). I'm wanting to install linux on mine. Anyone been able to do that?
I hate to tell you this but you just partitioned the internal memory. If you had actually read the thread on clockwork recovery you would have seen that you cannot currently partition the external sd card with clockwork.
so what do i do??

I honestly don't know the answer to that question. I'm kind of a casual flasher of my phones and I've never "bricked" one or had any major problem. I believe it can be fixed by using odin to flash back to stock. I'm pretty sure that you can recovery from it but it may take some work.
I would start by reading the entire clockwork recovery thread in the Android Development section. A few other people have made that mistake and may have a solution posted there. I'm at work posting from my phone or I would go look and try and find it.
Okay, I did some digging in that thread and it appears all you need to do is to use the re-partition option in Odin and then use Odin to flash a stock ROM and you should be all set.
Again, I have not used Odin myself so I don't know how easy/hard that is to do or if it will work at all.
nope i tried the repartition option in odin while flashing the stock rom.
With mine, I had success and got it out of the boot loop by using odin and flashing it back to stock.
The phone seems unbrickable, as
others have mentioned, just get it into download mode and use odin carefully.

Hey I just seriously screwed my self over bassicly I tried to get miui to boot from the samsung fascinate however when I installed it in cmr it spassed out then powered of then went to the bootloader and I get a red error message saying can't mount data or something so then I tried to reinstall Eco 3 Odin using Odin and it worked it booted but it says I have zero data on my phone and I can't install anything. I also tried the oneclick soft unbricker but it fails saying adb divers are not installed when they are. I'm doing this on my phones browser witch is the only thing that seems to be working right now I also tried a band restore but I got the same data error message.
Have you tried restoring to DL17 and then re-upgrading to 2.2?
And how about a good old odin flash?
In worst case, I would ask imnuts for the full odin package, or use a fascinate full odin package to get you off your feet, then reflash the modem, and recovery, then wipe In recovery cyan cwm... Then flash ec03

He is on a Continuum, but you can use a fascinate Odin package to reformat partitions if they get messed up, then just reflash recovery and start fresh if you can get in then... That wasn't a really good thing though to suggest to a newcomer necessarily, so thank you for pointing that out
okay heres what happened firts i wanted to see if i could get the miui rom for the samsung fascinate to boot on the continuum there pretty much the same phone minus the ticker and screen size so i went into clockwork mod and wiped everything then went to install zip from sd card and clicked on the miui rom witch was the process we always used on the hero. then after i clicked on it, it started to install then my screen started shacking and my phone turned off. when i turned it back on it when to the bootloader and a red error message poped up saying
e:cant mount /dev/blockstill(invalid argument
and when i go to recovery it says the same thing when i try to wipe/restore nand it says the same thing. so at that point i powered off and went to download mode and reinstalled eco3 odin using pda mode on odin and it worked then it rebooted and i got to the set up screen and i got 2 force closes daily brefeing and something else i went ahead and skipped all that stuff and it loaded fine after that. however now for some reason it says i have zero system memory so i cant install any apps or save data however it does recognize my sd card but i cant install to sd card. so bassicly the phone functions just no internal memory. at this point i honestly dont know what to do everything on the hero was simple and straight forward and we never ran into these kind of problems. ive also tried to restore my nands and reinstall clockwork mod but still no dice. what i need to do now i guess is get the necessary files to go completely stock and see if that helps. and if someone could point me in the direction to those files i would really aprechiate it. oh and i tried the one click unbricker it sayed success but didnt really do anything.
oh and i know trying to install miui was stupid but i was just wanting to see if it would boot lol.
Download the PIT file in the Development forum, as well as the DL17 Odin package from the FAQ of the EC03 post I made. Flash the DL17 in PDA, with the PIT, and re-partition selected. After that, you should be back on DL17, and can do whatever you want from there.
huzzza!!!
thank god that worked thank yall so much i still cant believe that just happened but restoring the stock odin image worked and all is well. so i guess tommorow i can reroot and restore my nand.
once again thank yall for the help.
I searched everywhere, but can't find the same problem as mine. I am stuck in the CW recovery screen, after rebooting times after times.
I have been updating the CM9 nightly for a while, didn't have any problem. But when I tried to flash 02-17 nightly, I messed up and in the middle of the install (flash), I hold the power forcing to reboot. Now, it keeps going loop back to the CW recovery screen every time I tried to reboot.

Had you flashed CmWR into eMMC?
Check the ROM information on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2.... this sounds a LOT like the problem 12paq had...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1495913
@Dizzyden, thanks for the tip.
I did repartition to 1g/5g awhile back. I am not sure where to start. 12paq tried many things, which one was the solution? Your rombackup.zip?
Many thanks....
@votinh
what do you mean? I am not using the N&O apps or OS. Pure CM9, therefore I guess it is flashed in eMMC. If not, please advice.

It may be that your "boot to recovery" flag is set, and if so, it will always boot to that until it is cleared. When the cyanogenmod logo comes up hold the n button until the boot menu comes up. Then choose boot to emmc. If it works, go to ROM Manager and flash a new CWM Recovery to emmc.
Welcome to the nightmare I lived last week. Don't worry I woke up, was able to fully recover and forget the dream ever occurred.
I to tried to reformat to 1gb/5gb and ended up in the same boot loop.. If you are in the same spot I was, your boot partition got wiped out. And you may notice EMMC is gone.
After much searching I came across a file... Looking....Looking...Looking...
..........................Ah yes here it is. Here is what worked for me.
1. Boot to recovery (Should be easy at this point)
2. Format System, Data, and Cache.
3. Install the attached Zip file. (RecoveryFix.zip), this should recreate the Boot partition and fix the EMMC.
4. Reboot to recovery
5. Install favorite Rom or restore from backup.
6. Reboot to test.
Again this is what finally worked for me, and I went through a lot of trial and error to get there. I am guessing at your situation being exactly the same as mine.
PS. Ignore my since of humor if you need to.
Ok i was on ICS passion then all of a sudden my phone said something about encryption an that it had failed an only option was to reset phone so i hit reset then it went to recovery mode an green android came up with chest open then error message happened an so i booted in to recovery then i try to go in sd an it would not allow me to so i then tried to odin an flashed then i powered on it gies to vibrant screen then it just shuts off so i then flashed Eugene froyo that does not brick then it takes me to stock recovery an says an i cant click on anything in recovery can only move -- movi_checking done!...
update media, please wait

Here are instructions i have followed an no luck http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043892
Ok I think you got some extra cache or some other piece of data that did not get wiped. either way, do this in this sequence and you should be ok
1. Download Eugenes 'Froyo that does not brick' file.
2. Extract the files.
3. Open Odin, plug in your phone, then put it into download mode.
4. load the PIT file in appropriate area.
5. load the .tar file in the PDA area.
6. DO NOT check 're-partition'.
7. Click start, let it finish. Your phone will load and reboot into stock recovery. It will error out again. DONT panic! This is what's supposed to happen.
8. Now, pull your battery.
9. Load the JFD rom for the vibrant'.
10. Extract the files.
11. Once again, open Odin, plug in your phone, put into download mode.
12. Load the PIT file into the appropriate area and the .tar in the PDA area.
13. THIS TIME you want to check the 're-partition' box.
14. Now click start, let it finish, and this time your phone will load up just fine!
15. Then, root the phone and you can flash your new Rom.
doing this method will get everything back to normal and the phone will work just like it did right out of the box
It is #7 that is important when it reboots into recovery after froyo that does not brick then pull the battery and go back into download mode and flash the JFD, This will clear everything out and put you back into stock
Good luck
Got it started
I got it booted though a very hard process an now i cant get my sd card to mount it says when i go into anything media related it says "Your phone does not have a SD card inserted" an Externel dont mount either

Don't use eugene's rom, since you were using an ICS rom follow these steps
flash froyo bootloaders
flash regular jfd and TICK REPARTITION ( ICS/CM7/CM9 change the partition layout and you need to flash correct partition table for stock rom to work )

Hey Jason. I'm in the exact situation you're in. Loaded Passion for about 1 week, got the encryption screen and was forced to reset. Now my SD cards (internal and external) won't load. Have you found a work around for it yet? Cheers Mate.
nope nothing
either of you find a solution? Im having same issue
In the same boat
I am in the same boat. I was using the Euphoria ROM. Yesterday things slowed down on the phone. I rebooted a few times and it crashed. The last couple of times it told me about the encrypted data. That was when I tried to take it back to stock and it won't do anything now other than boot to the vibrant logo and shutdown. Searching for a way to odin a ROM/Kernel that has a CWM recovery so I can go in and manually format the SDcard.
Do what I did, sell it to someone as a wifi hotspot and buy yourself a hercules. You'll never look back

Webstas- Just out of curiousity, were you trying to mount your phone to your computer while on ICs when this happened? I have a theory that I believe I know why this is happening. Just need you to see if you remember a few weeks ago and if you had any problems mounting to your PC and then your next reboot you got the Ecnryption Error.

no i got up an took a shower then came back it gave me an encryption error then i odin back an more trouble odined a couple more times an now it boot loop an also wont start with eugenes froyo
I know it has been awhile but think back. Were you mounted to your PC at anytime between your last reboot and the Encryption Error? Doesn't have to be right before, the error gets throw on your "next" reboot. And as you know, reboots can happen manually or for something as simple as wrong UV settings.
Looking back in this thread, I saw that you got it to boot up. See if you can do that again and then mount your External via ADB and you should to push the proper commands then. Pretty much your internal is hosed, but me and a few others are working on that too.
Can't get it to boot it makes it to Vibrant screen an shut off an on Eugene"s froyo it gives me a couple of errors an I just can't get it to start anymore it there anyone who has encountered this an got it fixed like I really need this fix I am using a blackberry please save me
YAY
I got it fixed but now im on step 13 of that guide where you have to use ADB an i cant get the phone to show up on my PC what drivers do i need i already have Vibrant drivers but still nothing an the usb works its a samsung USB so can anyone help me with ADB
I am having a similar problem. Was running ICS 4.0.3 w/Euphoria without issue until this morning. Got a couple of errors after a normal recharge. Pulled battery and rebooted, but is stuck in boot loop. Cannot access either recovery or fastboot screen. Vibrant logo flashes and release buttons, but never enters mode. Then cycles to Android screen and would likely stay there until battery died. This is primary phone and need to put back into service quickly. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

A friend of mine, who used a stock samsung rom (i think it was jvt) with a rooted kernel received an mms which didn't want to display the picture. he clicked a couple of times on it nad then everything began:
- First problem, the phone froze and then it was stuck on boot loop. That was when he called me and asked for help. i adviced him to do a full wipe and try again, no success.
- than i told him to mount his internal sd card, to put a rom on it and flash it. but his pc didn't recognize it.
- i told him to put it on his external sd. I knew, flashing from external sd could cause some problems, but it helped me sometimes. everything went fine. phone booted up, but asked for a pin and displayed something like "encryption failed". So it adviced him to wipe, what didn't help
-the next they i got his phone. First thing i tried was to flash a 3file-stock rom, but it ended with a dbdata errer after installation, so it bootlooped again. Then i tried to install dozens of roms, with repartition, without repartition, a one zip-rom, only the missing dbdata. nothing helped.
- my last attempt was to flash an older froyo rom, which i flashed with pit and repartition. Now recovery and download mode are gone. only thing it does is dislpaying "galaxy s" and turing off again.
long story short: the phone is totally bricked now and i have no idea what to do?
Any ideas?

i would flash stock using odin. then if that works root, flash custom and etc.
If the flashing fails then just fix it from support or try again with JIG.
If u fully stuff up your phone and it doesn't even turn on, go to samsung
and say it stuffed up while u were updating it and hopefully they will fix it for you!
ok so that's what i'll do. any suggestion which specific ROM i should flash? One file rom or 3 file roms? Gingerbread or froyo? do i have to flash a fresh bootloader?

To be honest i'm kinda new with rooting and etc on the SGS, but luckily had heaps of experience on my other android phone.
Well if i was you i would do some research on how to unbrick bricked phones, there should be heaps of vidoes on youtube.
Then i would ask here, then do pray that everything will go well and flash stock rom with ODIN. Well i would prefer GingerBread but it doesn't matter which one.
But if it does stuff up flashing Froyo would be better so you can make the excuse of updating to GingerBread and stuffing up.
Have you tried odin? Does it recognize the phone when you are in download mode? If you cannot go into download mode, find a usb jib for i9000 (cca 10e) and you will get into download mode. Then flash some XXJVU with odin. After that try Slim ICS 3.0 works flawlessly for me!

so this is going to get even more weird:
suddenly the phone started on its own and booted, but i was almost not responding and it was russian i think. then i removed the sd and it didn't want to boot anymore. when i reinsert the sd it boots, but only with this specific sd.
so i decided to make myself a jig to get into download mode. that was no problem, so i flashed jvq with odin. everything went fine, no errors anymore right after flashing. the phone restarted but it wasn't responsive like before. so i flashed again, this time without sd card. but now after flashing there ere some erros like "can't mount media...)
result: the phone won't boot up anymore?
something must have linked the sd card to the phone. to you have any idea? maby flashing bootloaders?
i have flashed dbdata cause it was still mentioned as missing in the error report right after flashing. result: completely bricked phone. It stays off, no jig helps anymore...
Read broodplanks guide to unbrick i9001, may work on ur phone. Or try another sd card, unplug the battery, try everything..

If you have decided to reflash then use ROM provided by 'voluptuary' (3.10a). And moreover, to flash, it would not matter if your battery is getting charged. Just plug the device to your PC using the USB cable and flash the device.
Be VERY sure you flash the correct ROM for your phone. If you have a version 1.3, then ONLY flash 1.3 ROMs to it. If you have a version 1.4, then ONLY flash 1.4 ROMs to it. You can find the version number under the battery on the sticker. If you flash the wrong version of ROM to it, you will end up with a brick.
When having problems like this, I would recommend flashing the Stock ROM to it first to set everything back to normal. Then, if that works fine, go to custom ROMs if desired. Stock flashing will replace everything back to new settings, including spl, radio, etc... Some of the custom ROMs are truly worth flashing, FASTER, stable, nice features.

If you have decided to reflash then use ROM provided by 'voluptuary' (3.10a). And moreover, to flash, it would not matter if your battery is getting charged. Just plug the device to your PC using the USB cable and flash the device.

I know I had 3.05a and reflashed 3.10a Clean Rom.. It works great now... I remember I use to have problems with the 3g but not after reflashing it works great
