got error in recovery after flashing with odin - Galaxy S I9000 General

I have flashed my galaxy S with ROM 2.3.3 XXJVK, odin finished, and rebot my phone into recovery mode where i got this error
E: failed to mount /dbdata
E: copy_dbdata_media: can't mount /dbdata
so i select just restart, and phone start.. So i don't know what this mean. Anything wrong? Cause my phone is working on this rom alright, didn't find problems
Only strange thing i find, when i tried to install doc rom it doesn't install.
I selected:
*Wipe version
*Chainfire's Kernel
*All Apps with default Samsung TW Launcher
*XXJVK Stock Theme + AOSP lockscreen + Shut Off Animation
But none of that install after in say in recovery COMPLETE..

if the phone is working fine, dont worry about it.
if it starts to cause issues, you need to flash 'dbdata' thru odin, or a firmware that contains it, such as JM8 or Darkys 9.2 resurrection.
ive had this issue a few times, leading me to boot loops. so if you experience them, you will know why.

or, a more simple solution,
CLEAN YOUR DEVICE BEFORE FLASHING.
i think it is written in every guide,
erase cache, erase internal storage, erase user data!
then flash, and there will be no problem, no error.
also, disable all lagfixes!

try flashing jvu from samfirmware with odin3 v1.82 and pit512 with repartition
after you get PASS, restart the phone and wait until some processes will complete, the phone will automatically reboot, then take out & insert back the battery.
after that continue as usual with the flashing of custom kernel like semaphore 2.5.0.
now you'll be able to install custom roms

ive done alot of flashing
can u provide link to jvu etc
only other option i have found is using adb command and remake the partitions, but i can't get premission on the phone to do that via recovery. take a look at my other thread.

Hope this can halp you, but you need to root your phone and some knowlege with abd. And when root first backup /EFS folder before you try anything.
Bye and good luck.

Unbrick Galaxy S5

I'm trying to restore this Galaxy S5 back to stock but allow me to give some back story.
It was meant to be simple, I have the correct stock recovery files from samfirmware. I load up Odin and begin to flash it as routine. I watch as it goes through all the steps and checks out just fine, but right at the end when it flashes the Modem.bin it fails.
So I attempt to flash a modem file on its on first. Same thing, immediately fails. Saying auth fail in Odin.
Then I flash Philz onto the phone so I can wipe Partition cache and Dalvik to try again. When I was in there, I went to advance > and unmount /Firmware-Modem but all I get is ERROR MOUNTING /FIRMWARE-MODEM
I don't know if it's possible that it's hardware faulty [failing NAND as an example. The phone has some other strange quirks going on with it too]
Any suggestions would be amazing. I don't know where to go from here at all seeing as that seems to be the road block.

Big problem bootlop clean reinstall: '(note 4 (N910F)

Hi XDA sorry to bother you but I really really really need your help because I am desperate ...
I am French but I speak a little English and I am your community for a long time!
Here I have a note 4 (N910F) and I was officially NK4. I wanted to install a custom rom but I had beug on official NK4, so I decide to make a clean reinstall before putting a custom rom!
The problem is that in order to do I put my note 4 in download mode and I opened odin then I checked auto reboot, re partition, f reset time and nand erase all. I put the PIT, BL, AP, CP and the SCC in the right boxes then I clicked on START and then restarts the mobile was stuck on the samsung logo and waited 15min .. Always blocked after 15 minutes so I extinguishes.
I tried other manipulation: I try to flash the rom 4 files with the pit but check the nand erase all but still stuck on the Samsung logo.
I try to flash the rom 4 file without the pit but still stuck on the Samsung logo.
I installed philz and restore a backup but always the same.
And I try to do a factory reset before installing the official NK4 and always the same.
I also found that when I do a factory reset I have two errors:
the first E: Error mouting / data!
the second E: Error mouting / sdcard / .android_secure!
Voila so I really need your help because no one can solve my problem: '(
Thank you in advance ..
Download new rom from sammobile, use odin and restart everything from scratch! Dont un-check or change Anything in odin, just start when you have chosen right file..!
Try To change file system of data And sdcard, like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=56956070
Maybe you can try this: http://www.phonandroid.com/forum/reinstallation-propre-du-note-4-sm-n910f-t110393.html
First I wanted to thank you for your help!
I finally managed to solve my problem!
I spent more than 7 hours on this problem to finally succeed!
I did a nand erase all with odin then directly flash the cfroot without turning it on after nand erase all. Then I was in the recovery then wipe and factory reset wipe Cache and then I restart my phone and it worked!
For without the flash cfroot it did not work!
it was really long to find this a bit weird solution!
Thank you for your help!
For future reference:
Wipe /data from stock recovery after flashing a PIT and ROM.
Flashing a PIT wipes all partitions on the phone, and Odin only flashes /system, leaving /data unformatted. Wiping /data from stock recovery fixes that.

I9506 shows encryption failed, cannot flash rom

Can anyone help unbrick my i9506? It will boot to the Samsung logo but then comes up with the message: “Encryption failed. Unable to complete encryption because of interruption. Perform factory data reset …” etc. I have never encrypted the phone and this came out of the blue, though I did delete cache and dalvik cache under TWRP the day before. The phone will boot into TWRP recovery where I tried doing a factory reset and data wipe but nothing works and all I get is “Unable to mount /data, Unable to mount /cache, Unable to mount storage” in TWRP.
I tried flashing a stock rom with Odin (3.07, 3.09, 3.10, 1.85, different USB ports, official samsung cable, different computers) but that also failed, and fastboot doesn’t work either. Looks like a corrupt partition? Is there any work around to this problem, or failing that, can I flash a stock recovery so I can take this in for repair under warranty?
Did the Odin flash work? If it flashed succesfully, then flash the firmware with a .pit file and check re-partition. That should fix it.
Tired flashing numerous times with Odin but all failed. Tried with .pit file but also failed.
OK, I’m just an old noob, but after three days of searching, downloading and flashing, I am ready to give up. I found a number of references to ‘Encryption failed’ but few answers. The constant mmc_write fail in Downloading when flashing suggests, according to some, a hardware failure with the mmc chip, and Knox also gets a mention as a cause. So it looks like a hardware and Samsung issue, and the only easy fixes reported come from those who get a replacement motherboard under warranty.
But I can still boot into twrp recovery, which suggests a soft brick, and some users experiencing similar issues have revived their phones. My numerous attempts to flash stock rom, stock recovery, CWD etc with Odin failed. In trwp, data and cache will not mount, nor will data mount through adb shell. Looks like a partition issue, though all partitions appear to exist under dev/block/ and flashing the i9506 pit file in Odin does nothing. Tried to wipe data, cache, system etc and do a manual reformat of /data (userdata partition 26 in i9506) through adb but all failed. Tried superwipe (doesn’t work), and while fastboot erase then rom flashing works for some to overcome the dreaded ‘Unable to mount /data failed’, Samsung phones don’t support fastboot. Some users report success through CWD recovery, the main problem solver, and flashing older ICS roms (I’m on 5.01 but also d tried 4.4.2 and 4.3 without success). Twrp crops up as a real suspect for many users – me too - but my attempts to get rid of it and flash either stock recovery or CWD/Philz failed.
So, I’ll try to get a hardware replacement for my phone, but given I’ve tripped Knox when rooting, I don’t fancy my chances. My conclusions, apart from don’t mess with your phone, are avoid Samsung and Knox, and twrp sucks but, hey … who knows?
Follow up. Got it fixed under warranty. They replaced the PCB (motherboard). Looks like I wasted all those hours trying to get it up and running, and it was hardware after all.

Got stuck at formatting cache in the latest TWRP (I9505 - jfltexx)

Phone is working, I suppose doing his job in the process. The problem is that I am waiting already 20 minutes. I am afraid of getting CPU burnt (it is at 51 grades of Celsius).
I have read about the issue and about also the solution [enabling rm -rf in the twrp settings]... But now I am in the process, so not sure if I should shut the phone down or not..
Did you do a factory reset or advanced wipe?
I used advanced wipe, I got really angry with formatting so I removed the battery ... but now I have a problem: failed to mount system... I installed the twrp through odin... And before that I did not do anything, do I have to unlock bootloader or something like that?

No. Your bootloader is already unlocked, otherwise it wouldn't have let you flash TWRP.
Have you tried factory reset? Or mounting system manually?
You can also try to mount system by using TWRP's built-in terminal emulator.
Now I flashed 4.4.2 with and Odin, phone was ok. Then I flashed latest twrp and now the system was mounted. I did a backup and wiped all again with advanced wipe. Then I tried to install ROM but it fell again to a error 7 - system not mounted. How can I mount it manually? what command is that?

Error 7 means the ROM is not compatible with your model.
Have you tried different version of twrp?
That was a really terrible testing day... I tried every twrp till version 2.8.6 that worked after odin flashing. I managed to mount system and do all wipes. I flashed ROM and gapps, everything went smoothly... But the thing was that the phone started to shut down by itself. Without a message, simply black screen and restart and bootloop after samsung logo. I decided to load 4.4.2 stock with repartitioning (pit file)... 10 hours ok and then again shutting down by itself.
Have you experienced this kind of behaviour?
