Help...problem flashing rom - Galaxy S I9000 General

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?

my SGS can't boot - please help

Hi,
I had a 2.2.1 Froyo version of Darkky's ROM (9.1 or so) installed.
Everything worked fine until I tried a "fix" for call recording. For this I copied 3 files to the /LIB folder but it didn't work, the call recording software couldn't record but did create some broken files. After I uninstalled the software (but didn't delete the files from /LIB) I restarted the phone after few days because my media players couldn't open .flv files anymore. After restart, the phone would stay in an endless loop on the boot-up animation. Tried all options in the Recovery console (the one with red text, can't remember the name) but nothing fixed it. At this time I could enter both recovery and download mode.
Than I tried to flash a bootloader but the only SBL file I found, doesn't seem to fix it, I only see the icon with a phone and computer w/o link on my screen. I tried flashing other versions of stock ROMs but nothing changes.
I think there is something wrong with the partitions or the boot loader but I wasn't able to find other bootloaders and Heimdall (I used it for flashing as Odin can't see my phone) doesn't let me use .PIT files to re-partition.
Please help me
P.S. the phone can still enter download mode, but not recovery console
Have you tried flashing in PDA just a kernel like voodoo. No other files just kernel and no repartition. Auto reboot checked.

Thank you for the reply
Odin doesn't work for me, it doesn't detect my phone.
I have just flashed the "stock+Voodoo-latest XXJPY" from
here and it didn't work . It displays the GALAXY S GT-I9000 logo and that's all.
later edit
but hey, I have my recovery console back at least.
I think the call recorder program messed up my file system/ memory or something...I'm a noob though, so I don't really know what happened. Maybe the primary boot loader wold fix it?
in "Mounts and Storage Menu" I have
- mount /system
- mount /data
- unmount /cache
- unmount /sdcard
- mount /sd-ext
is this normal?
So your phone can get into download but Odin does not connect? Can you add just the kernel file on your program then? If Odin does connect, just add a Froyo speedmod or voodoo kernal. No code, modem or csc.
I had a similar problem once, nothing worked until I tried just a kernal by itself and all was good.
Good luck mate.

Odin doesn't connect but I use Haimdall and it works perfectly .
So I already tried to flash new ROMs with CSC, Modem and CODE. It didn't fix...
I tried flashing a SBL, no luck.
I tried flashing just a kernel, it at least fixed it so I can go into recovery console but phone still doesn't boot.
thank you very much xchasa, I hope I will figure it out...
do you have any idea why I can't install using a .pit file? Haimdall is just like Odin, and it has the option. Just that when I put in a .PIT file, the START button grays out and won't let me flash anything with it checked
I can't mount /system. If I try to install anything, I get "error mounting SYSTEM" errors"
what does this mean?
I have ClockworkMod Recovery V2.5.1.3 - Voodoo lagfix.
I think I lost root...I can't remember what I did last time
backup/restore doesn't work now either because of the /system problem

I'm not really sure (as I started to play I9000 for some weeks and came across similar case few days ago) but it might be some problem with kernel that can't boot up the device.
The only way I can "rescue" my device from "death" is to flash stock ROM. It now works perfect.
Since you can get into recovery, you can mount on the sdcard and backup all the important stuff before you flash stock ROM.
I tried flashing stock firmwares already...a few versions actually.
As I can't use the .PIT files and re-format it, my sd-card is untouched.
later edit:
I just "fixed" it . I flashed the XXJP1 stock ROM which came with all the files (Haimdall allows you to select 9 files, so for each "function").
I also figured out why Odin didn't work. Odin and Haimdall use different USB drivers, u have to install the proper driver.
So I tried Odin but didn't fix it and than I tried Haimdall and put in all 8 files from the .tar archive (the 9th would be "Recovery")
Thank you, this post can be closed

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?

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:

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.

If you flash with repartition you dont need change Lagfix. Do you Repartion.

POSSIBLE FIX FOR PHONES THAT ARE STUCK AT BOOTLOGO AFTER LQ5/LPM + Wipe

THIS GUIDE IS INTENDED ONLY FOR THE 16GB GALAXY S2 I9100 (but a similar procedure can be applied to some other samsung devices)
BIG THANKS TO USER HG42, ALL CREDITS GO TO HIM AS HE IS THE ONE THAT MADE THIS POSSIBLE. THE ORIGINAL GALAXY NOTE THREAD IS HERE
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THIS WILL WORK, IT DID FOR ME AND A FEW OTHERS BUT YOUR PROBLEM COULD BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE
AFTER FLASHING THE PIT FILE, YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATLY FLASH A SAMSUNG ROM OR A KERNEL VIA ODIN, ESPECIALLY IF YOU STILL HAVE THE LQ5 KERNEL INSTALLED, IN ANY CASE, DON'T TRY TO WIPE DATA AFTER THE PIT FILE FLASH, FLASH A ROM OR A KERNEL BEFORE DOING ANY WIPE
As you must know by now, some users experienced hard bricks after flashing the leaked LQ5 firmware and doing a factory reset or a data wipe, some others, like me, can still access Odin or recovery but no matter what we try we can't get the phone to actually fully boot.
SYMPTOMS:
-You can go into download mode and maybe in recovery
-When you try to wipe data in recovery the phone gets stuck and reboots eventually
-Flashing a firmware through odin doesn't do any good even when the flash was a success
-During the Flash through odin it may get stuck at data.img or fastoryfs depending on the firmware you're trying to flash
If your symptoms aren't the same as those, i would advise not trying this procedure
THE REASON FOR THE "BRICK"
It seems that during the factory reset or data wipe you made after flashing LQ5, the data partition got badly corrupted somehow, and because of that, neither CWM nor Odin can write or format this faulty data partition. This is why you can't boot into any rom.
What you need to do if you're in the same situtation i was into (make sure of it) is to flash a modified pit file which is gonna create a new data partition on your internal sdcard, leaving the faulty one aside, and thus getting a brand new data partition which is gonna make your phone work again, but at the cost of having a smaller internal SD. Other than that, your phone should work exactly as it did.
WARNING / BACKUP
By doing so, you're also repartitionning the internal sdcard, which will result in the loss of everything you have on it, to backup the content of your internal sdcard, you must follow the steps described in THIS THREAD which is the thread started by the man that found the solution to this problem. The thread is a galaxy note thread, but the backup procedure is the same.
Once you have backed up what you wanted to backup, and made sure you read everything carefully, you can proceed to the flashing of the modified pit file.
AFTER FLASHING THE PIT FILE, YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATLY FLASH A SAMSUNG ROM OR A KERNEL VIA ODIN, ESPECIALLY IF YOU STILL HAVE THE LQ5 KERNEL INSTALLED, IN ANY CASE, DON'T TRY TO WIPE DATA AFTER THE PIT FILE FLASH, FLASH A ROM OR A KERNEL BEFORE DOING ANY WIPE
The zip containing the modified PIT files can be found in THIS THREAD at the end of the first post.
STEP BY STEP
-Put your phone into Download Mode
-Flash the modified pit using odin, NOTHING ELSE
-After pit flash, the phone will try to reboot, and will get stuck. Remove the battery
-Go into Download Mode.
-Flash a clean, unmodified, samsung firmware (like KI4) WITHOUT PUTTING ANY PIT FILE
-Reboot in stock recovery, do a factory reset
-Reboot phone
-Format internal sdcard
-You should be good to go
ALTERNATIVE WAY (NOT RECOMMENDED)
-Put your phone into Download Mode
-Flash the modified pit using odin, NOTHING ELSE
-After pit flash, the phone will try to reboot, and will get stuck. Remove the battery
-Go into Download Mode.
-Flash a custom kernel with Odin.
-Then Boot into recovery and install a rom from a zip which must be on your external SD
I hope this works for you as well as it did for me. Good luck, and congratulations to hg42 for finding a way to get our devices working again
edit: OP entirely changed his post since my response, rendering it incorrect.
Worked for me too
Tried everything was beginning to give up tried this and my phone works again thanks alot
Glad it worked for you mate.
Next time we'll think twice before flashing a leaked firmware.

Heeyyy!!!! Bro, i found an alternative for us. It worked for me so with you will work to!!!
Im from argentina and my english is not good. So, sorry for that.
Ok, do this:
1/ Download resurrection remix v2.5.3
2/ Flash siyha v3.3.2
3/ Enter to the recovery
4/ Go to "dual-boot options
5/ Select "install zip to second rom from external sd. Automatically siyah will create a second data partition.
6/ select the rom from the external sd and install it. Then restart and enter in recovery again
7/ go to "dual boot options / wipe second rom dalvik-cache.
8/ go to dual boot options / fix second rom permissions
9/ go to dual boot options / wipe second rom data cache
10/ reboot and you will see during boot the next reading: press home o volume button to enter to second rom.... so, press the home buttom and the phone will revive!!!!!!
I must say that every time the phone starts you have to choose to enter the second rom. This solution sucks, but at least your phone will work.
good luck

Have you tried flashing a samsung rom? Are you still on LQ5 kernel?
If this still fails after trying to flash a samsung rom using odin, i think you should indeed flash the original PIT, which will make things back the way they were before, even if it didn't work then
when i use Odin to install original rom , it stuck on data.img
and when I use recovery to wipe factory or cache , it stuck on formatting data
(( I used pit stock and i9100_u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4-patched-standard ))

arf man, you should have stick to the step by steps and just that. There is still little hope though, send a PM to hg42 explaining that you flashed his modified galaxy s2 pit file but that you did the same mistake again (that i did too, but only once) , which was to wipe data using LQ5 kernel. Basically i think you now have two ****ty data partitions, back to square one.
He might be able to build a new Pit specially for you to flash in which yet another data partition will be created, next to the one you just screwed.
I modified my post to make it even clearer that you shouldn't wipe data while using LQ5 kernel.
Good luck man
is this guide only for people who can access to download mode?
my phone not response to any thing
what the solution for me?
Unfortunately some people were lucky enough to only soft brick their phones when other hard bricked them.
No solution for the hard bricked ones for now.

You are my S2 saver! Thank you! Thank you!
Since Thursday, when i lost my S2 because of LQ5, i have been trying to find any possible solution through ODIN, but the same result: S2 stacked on logo screen.
Today i decided to send my S2 to Samsung, but the last minute i saw your thread.
I had nothing to loose so i decide to give it another try and I GOT MY PHONE BACK!
After formatting internal card i got back 9,54 Gb. I remember that i had 11Gb free before LQ5 but right now its not major problem.
Once more
Thank you!!!!!

[GT-S5360] Data partition is corrupted, flashing stock and PIT won't fix it

I was wondering whenever I should post this in the "bricks" thread, I'm still not sure what the term "brick" means entirely but what I'm gathering is that it's usually when people try to flash sommat and mess it up, this isn't exactly the case for me, either way I believe this case to be special enough to deserve a separate thread, this is not your usual "guys help I installed custom rom x and am bootloop".
Context: A couple days ago I was in a call with someone and right after hanging up my phone froze completely, I had to reboot but then I was stuck at boot (bootloop), decided to try and wipe data (didn't really have anything important there) but I got an error when I tried to mount /data. After a while I decided to flash stock with odin, I was confident that would fix it, but it didn't, I was stuck at boot again, I went into recovery and tried to check if I could mount /data, but nope, none of that.
This is the error I get when I try to mount /data:
In stock recovery
Code:
-- Wiping data...
E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/stl11
In CWM
Code:
-- Wiping data...
formatting /data...
Error mounting /data!
Skipping format...
Sometimes it'll just freeze at "Formatting /data...". By the way, the errors were the same before and after flashing stock.
Apparently something is wrong with my data partition, here is a list of things I have and have not tried so I eliminate the potentially not-useful replies, oh yes I can see them coming already:
I have tried:
-flashing stock with odin, it all works fine and I get PASS, only error I get is when my phone is installing CSC during recovery, but that's only because /data is unusable
-including PIT and bootloader
-yes, it's the correct PIT.
-yes, I checked re-partition.
-flashing PDA, MODEM, CSC, BL and PIT in every possible order
-trying mount /data (duh, that's the very issue)
-trying mount /data after flashing stock
-googling a lot
I have not tried:
-Any odin option other than the default ones and re-partition
I'm not really sure why this keeps happening after flashing PIT, as far as I know that's supposed to re-partition my phone, doesn't that mean it should wipe out anything in the partitions, thus getting a completely new /data partition?. I'm not an expert when it comes to android phones, I'm just comparing it to linux.
Is there a way to just REMOVE my /data partition and make a new one?, I believe that would fix the issue.
Some extra background, I have been using Hyperion 9 (not sure if it was 9?, I know it was the latest OFFICIAL hyperion rom though), I have bricked my phone in the past many times when I was a teenager (yes, this very same phone, I've had it for years), and also fixed it many times by flashing stock, at the end I got bored of it and stayed at stock, then about a year or two ago (I think?) I decided to find a custom rom + a kernel to save up on battery, I don't really remember what I did but I got Hyperion 9 and some kernel, haven't messed with my phone since.
Also, yes, I know this is a very old model, but if I can fix this phone I definitely will, I have my reasons.
EDIT: added more info
EDIT: I think one part sounded a bit rude, edited
Where you get stock rom?
Did you tried stock from this thread?
This stock only have 3 file: csc, modem, pda.
And don't use .pit Odin file.

I've tried multiple stocks from sammobile just to be sure, even stocks from different regions, I see little point in trying more. The stock rom is not the problem, it works fine and I've used the same stock rom effectively in the past.
same problem here in cwm or odin
error mounting data
