Help! Failed to mount cache_fs in recovery 2e and cannot lagfix - Galaxy S I9000 General

Failed to mount cache_fs in recovery 2e and cannot lagfix
I am using original XXJPY + SpeedMod K10 / K11 / K12
I found that I am unable to convert cache_fs from RFS to ext4...
and in addition, I cannot mount /cache in recovery 2e.
Is there anything wrong with the partition? I already reflash the rom with s1_odin_20100803.pit and used re-partition but the problem still here.
Need your help

ehmm... flash speedmod back via odin and hope

I tried this situation before.
and got it solved. Here is what i did.
go to samfirmware and download ZSJF7 rom and flash through odin. (Remember with repatriation checked and select 512pit file.)
U may try XXJM8/XXJM9 if ZSJF7 didn't work for you.
When done, go to CWM recovery and flash the rom or kernal u want.
P.S. some kernal only work with froyo/eclair. Remember to flash the correct rom version before flashing the kernal with lagfix.

I got this error once, went away when I flashed again with re-partition (this was with the XXJPU ROM on samfirmware.com).
This happened to me, download a bunch of roms and open them look for a dbdata file inside. DON'T extract but once you find it flash that rom, it will work!

Flash back to an stock Eclair 2.1 ROM like JM8 or JH2
then flash back to stock Froyo 2.2 of your choice
before you boot into the OS
go into Recovery Mode
select Format Internal SD
select wipe data
select wipe cache
select reboot
now it should work like normal

To the OP, I'm +1 this reco. All other suggestions are typically variations of this but this is the most straight forward and complete.
It happen to me, I just had to find the right CSC, flash Eclair, then the custom ROM

Help...problem flashing rom

Using Odin to flash I9000XXJPY. Odin finishes correctly and the phone restarts and goes into the recovery screen. I get two error messages.
Message 1:
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBATA:
Message 2:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI me nu for format and reboot actions.
copy default media content failed.
If I reboot system it gets stuck on the logo screen.
Sounds to me like the first step would be to reflash the ROM and see if that solves it.
If you still have the same trouble, flash a recovery ROM such as your original stock ROM or Darky's Resurrection and go from there.
Of course, more technically minded types here will likely have better/more complete advice.
Good luck

Tried that several times and didn't work. Any other tips.
Flash a stock 2.1 rom using 3 files plus pit file and repartition ticked. I'd format the internal sd and do another factory restore then to make the phone as clean as possible before re flashing jpy. If using 3 files use pit file with repartition ticked. If one file skip pit and ensure repartition is un ticked. I've done this loads of times to get back to stock rom after custom roms. Good luck, hope this helps

Flash JPU first with repartition ticked using 512.pit, then flash the JPY you have without repartition. JPU also has the 3-button activated bootloaders and works great... no need to go back to 2.1, imho.
Im having this same issue and flashed many combos but still not working.
It seems the int sd is not formatted correctly and wont mount.

Yeah you can do that too. It doesn't really matter which you flash to as long as it's the 3 files with pit and repartition. It's only a base rom to enable you to get the phone clean and to flash over again

Use Odin 1.7 from my signature.
Which Firmware you ON & what did you flash?

Soft bricked my phone and need help.

Ok I messed up and need a little help.
Went through a couple threads to troubleshoot and not gotten very far.
I9000M
I was using a older froyo version of docs rom with voodoo kernal.
I decided to try to flash stock JVH with all files (pda, phone, CSC) with odin 1.7
re-partition checked, update bootload checked, 512 pit
phone reboots and when wiping data error message "E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcbl0p2"
No recovery but download works
You tried flashing eclair then froyo?

I usually revert to EZBase when switching roms. Maybe someone else can confirm this is a solution?
Flash back to KC1 using Odin.
And if you get the famous E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl10 (invalid Argument) message, follow the instructions in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=984140
Worked for me after flashing back to KC1 coming from JVH
Fixed !
Thanks you all !
used the EZbase and then flashed to KC1 ..booted right up !!!
Thanks again !

Downgrading to stock 2.3.3 rom !!!!

I dont know where should I open this topic but if I write wrong section it can moved another topic by modder.
today I wanted to downgrade from samsung 2.3.4 JVP rom to official 2.3.3 rom however after format I got this error :
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11 and it hangs at boot logo.
when I upgrade to 2.3.4 rom my phone works without any problem.
Can someone tell me the steps one by one downgrading process with odin?
That ¡s because you flashed also a kernel with lagfix. Go into recovery mode, from CWM menu, disable lagfix. Reboot so it disables lagfix. Go into recovery mode and check that lagfix is disabled.
Now flash 2.3.3 with re-partition unchecked.

Well I already disabled lagfix before downgrading it is interesting that at first it installed stock rom without any error but I wanted try another stock rom and that time it gave that error.but thanks a lot for ur help I will try to install according to your explanations
If you flash with repartition you dont need change Lagfix. Do you Repartion.

it worked fine,

Install one of these kernels http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
thanks for the reply, that's funny cos i am actually already looking at this thread
but the problems is the last of kernal name like KG1 etc, but my is 2.6.35.7.I19100XWKDD-CL161513
[email protected]#2
so i dont know which kernal to use, which one would you suggest?
thanks again
Hmm interesting, that's a fairly old firmware without a cfroot kernel, try installing kies and see if there's a firmware upgrade for your phone.
i am really confused now,
opened kies software, detected S2, then what? there is no option to see if there is newer firmware or whatever
thanks again
Actually forget about kies. Download the latest kh3 firmware and flash it in download mode, then flash the cf-root kh3 kernel.
got the email notification from you, you said forget the odin hehe
so i flash kh3 firmware via odin yes?
1) Install Kies(only install it, do not run it or Odin will not work)
2) Download odin 1.85
3) Set phone to usb debugging (settings > applications > development > usb debug
4) open odin (and mount the firmware tar file or files, see specific threads for how and or what)
5) Shut down your phone and reboot it into download mode
6) Flash through odin

That's what i would do, place the CORE file as PDA, MODEM file as PHONE and any one of the CSC files as CSC. After its installed flash the cf-root kernel.

no no, I meant he needs to install kies, thats it. He should not have kies running in the background or even running in the windows tray at all, when flashing with odin. Edited my post to make it more clear
When I rooted mine, all I had to do was to flash an insecure kernel (you can get much newer versions now than the KDD, up to even KH1 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101671&highlight=insecure+kernel), then use superoneclick to root. Superoneclick will flash in CWM recovery for you, so after superoneclick, just reboot straight into recovery. No need to flash anything else unless you want the CWM Rom Manager app.
Superoneclick doesn't give you clockworkmod recovery, you need a CWM kernel, as in samsung land recovery and kernel live in the same happy little place.
Newer stock firmware+cf-root is the easiest way, you may lose your app data though, so backup (try titanium backup, only restore user app data or data in green)
thanks for the replies
i downloaded the KH3 rar file, extracted to a folder. see the screenshot in attachment
which ones?
thanks again

OMG!!! I've got the same problem with you.
I had the same thing, what i did was from the cwm app i downloaded the latest cm7 nightly, once installed and it pops up skiing do i want to instal and wipe etc i clicked yes, the phone rebooted and an android symbol appears and nothing happened.
So i long pressed the power button to switch it off, when i switched it back on, the phone starts installing cm7, once that completes, everything was normal how it should be.
