Hi guys. I'm having some weird problems with my Galaxy Note3. I tried installing custom rom, but i did something wrong, so now when i try to install a rom i get this "E: failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)".... What should i do? I got CWM Recovery V6.0.4.6, and i just tried to update it (unzip through CWM), but for some reason it won't let me open my sd card... What should i do? My phone has no rom right now.
Thanks.
EDIT:
I installed cwm 6.0.4.7, but i still have 6.0.4.6.... Weird?
Hi all,
So I recently made the mistake of rooting my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (SMG-935A) while being a complete and total novice. I was able to root it fine (using ODIN), and then I tried to use some customization apps which messed up my phone. I tried resetting my phone and flashing the ROM again, and it messed my phone up even more.
First thing's first, when I try to boot up my phone, it will not go past the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Custom screen. It will stay there pretty much until the phone dies.
When I boot it up in recovery mode, it gives me an error message that reads:
"dm-verity verification failed....
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)."
When I try to wipe my phone's data and factory reset it, it throws this error:
"E:failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)
can't mount '/system', rc = '-1' (Invalid argument)."
I have not seen anything on how to fix this specifically. Is there a way to fix this error and get my phone working again that I am unaware of? Or am I better off just getting a new phone? Anything you can do to help would be great. I've tried flashing stock ROMs and everything to no avail.
Thanks in advance.

You should be able to flash back to stock with Odin. If you aren't on current B4 bootloaders, you need to know that if you on B2 or B3 that flashing the B4 bootloaders, you cannot go back to the previous versions (you will brick). The current stock G935AUCS4API2 (BL4) found HERE should get you back up and running again.

Hi, thanks for the help. I tried using the files from the link you provided but I got a "Complete(Write) operation failed" error from ODIN. Also on my "Downloading" screen, I now have a "SW REV CHECK FAIL : [about]Fused 4 > Binary 2" error. Any insight on that?
Thanks.
Try using Samsung smart switch on your pc to re-initialize your phone. It should be able to recover your device and put you on the newest firmware.
I tried to flash Android O, but failed... Now I'm flashing other roms, but still failing, every time i try to install system it tells me (invalid argument) please I need help.
This is not enough. Write the process you done for flash.
Are you tried the official guide at Google's site?
Its my first day rooting and after unlocking the bootloader and installing twrp i tryied to reboot but with no luck as it bootlooped every time after that i tryed to just install lineage os 19.1. I tryed to wipe my system but it gave me and error 'Failed to mount /preload (Invalid argument)'. I read about this online and it seemed like a minor thing and that everything should work normally, so i decided to continue. Its about this time that i found out about no-verity-opt-encrypt so i decided thet i would install that and lineage os 19.1 from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lineageos-19-1-android-12l-signature-spoofing-ota-updates-for-s8-s8-note8.4370375/ I went to the install page and selected both files but when i tryed to install it gave me this error 'Updater process ended with error 1 : error installig zip file /sdcard/Lineage OS 19.1.zip' and 'Failed to munt /preload (invalid argument)'
Please help i dont know what to do, if its not possible to get lineage os on the phone im willing to get back to the normal operating system but curretly i cant do both
