[Q] u800 Ideosx5 (greek) suddenly bootloop, cannot find /data - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

So the night before yesterday before going to bed i connect my ideos to pc and left it charging and went for sleep.
When i woke up i realized that the phone is dead.
Going into recovery tryed to flash my rom again,the process finished really quick
reboot stacked at ideos screen.Cannot format /data.
So reboot ,bootloader purple screen trying to copy my original image,seems ok.
Reboot,nope clockwork again.Boot loader once again same files not my original.
Shift delete recovery image ok,copy original image ok unmount remove usb reboot.
Clockwork again.
Trying to format image drive from windows "Drive is busy"
Connecting to Linux system at bootloader giving a lot of drives.Unmount Image format ok,copy original image ok.Reboot ... clockwork once more.
So one idea that i have is that i have a partition around 600mb which is ext ,and i wonder if the /data is that partition and maybe needs format it fat32.
Any help and ideas would be appreciated.
Using latest cm7 from geno with stock kernel with no problems.
Greek Ideos.
Cheers

Tryed to flash stock firmwares like Overseas b136 and another two all failed to update at the second part.Also i tryed with Genos repartioning tools failed,to be honest didnt try the one wich needs three flashes to restore stock partitions i ll try it later today.

Cannot flash roms or restore from recovery

I have looked and done searches for this problem with no matches. Phone stuck in bootloop after battery died. Pulled battery and went to recovery, tried to restore after wiping showed error message for data wipe
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1.
(file exists)
When I tried to restore the attached results show up on the screen.
Any help with this situation would be greatly appreciated.
Try installing another rom. If that doesn't work, try flashing a new clockworkmod version.
Yes, I have tried three different roms and flashing a different recovery with the same type of results. The problem seems to be with data. Everything I try to do including wiping data ends up in an error message.
Hmm. Then you might try going back to stock from hboot and rerooting
Is sd full, or nearly full?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
Id start with the newest version of clockworkmod and an new SD card.
Unrooted using the RUU with reverted HTC drivers. Process seemed to go fine but when it reboots it gets stuck in a bootloop with original droid bootscreen. I still have s-off and am wary of removing for fear of being stuck.
You could try flashing super vr wipe and do it that way.
sounds like the sdcard isn't mounting. i would back up the sdcard then reformat it and try again. or try another sdcard if you have one handy i usually keep a spare around just in case.
Look up five vibe fix ...

This kind of thing frightens me to death about flashing a new ROM. I'm dying to get that 2.3 ROM that just posed but I'm afraid of bootloops, whitescreens and error messages etc.
It's really not that bad, as long as you dont touch it while its doing it's thing it works great. I just installed Ovo Community Mod Test RC5 and it is SICK!
You need to update your hboot to .92 first though.

Sounds like something isn't mounting, but I'm not sure if it's the SDcard. Those directories are on eMMC, aren't they? Not sure if this would help, but I'd check to see if it's mounted as read/write. Looks like it's read only.

Dude, use Doug Piston's ROM Flashing Tutorial, here. It's easy.
After the screen shot showing Wiping Cache, also do:
Mounts and Storage - format /system, format /data, format /boot
Advanced - Wipe Dalvik
Then resume at the Install zip from SD Card screen shot...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I followed those directions and flashed the new 2.3.4 without any issues. I was originally on 2.2 rooted with unrevoked3
Much bigger problem. Now that I have run the RUU I no longer have clockwork recovery and cannot flash anything. When I reboot I get the droid bootscreen in bootloop. Frustration!
Have you tried just booting with the sd card removed? Issues with the sd card can stop it from booting
Also if you flashed the RUU your unrooted therefore have no cm recovery. You will need to root again for that.
Yes recovery was gone, attempted to flash clockwork again. When booting into recovery strange bar appeared and screen went black. After several tries with same results flashed Amon ra style recovery and now have this recovery but am still getting bootloops when flashing and having same E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (file exisits) error messages. Confident there is a solution but have no idea how to get there. Determined though! Any help is greatly appreciated.
It is saying read only file system . E:Error in CACHE:recovery/log
This is at the bottom of the recovery screen.
Ok, I've said this a few times on here, but I don't see were you've mentioned that you've tried it. Remove your SD card and see if it boots!

Have I bricked my phone?

Was using the latest version of Oxygen up until yesterday, with a custom partition (by Geno.Kolar), and decided I wanted to update to Aurora.
Followed the instructions linked in the first post of the thread, but didn't revert my partition to original before doing so.
I managed to install the original stock 2.2.1 rom, and then proceeded to install 2.3.4, however it would make it to the boot animation and just cycle through the animation endlessly (though very jerky).
I put my partition table back to originals and tried again, this time the update was failing right at the end.
Decided that I really needed a working phone, so I tried to restore a nandroid backup I had made right before, after restoring the partition table, but it's failing at the data partition.
Seems I'm unable to mount or format the data partition, so I can't install anything.
Any suggestions?
Tried these instructions without luck:
Download mediafire.com/?1hbk6n46hgamyt6
Unzip it, and find UPDATE.APP
Put UPDATE.APP in a dload folder and upload to empty sdcard.
Put sdcard in phone, and hold vol+/- and power and flash it.
After phone has restarted pull battery.
Download http://www.mediafire.com/?6hrfz36b8e2vw87
Unzip and copy the dload folder to empty sdcard.
Hold vol+/- and power and flash it.
After it fails near the end or if it restarts then pull battery.
Download a rooted boot.img and a clockworkmod recovery.img (got both mine from links at modaco)
Attach phone to PC in pink screen mode and delete the boot.img and recover.img files.
Upload the downloaded root.img and recovery.img to image folder in phone.
Download any custom rom from XDA, I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1475687 and upload it to sdcard
Pull battery.
Hold vol+ and power and go into clockworkmod, wipe everything and flash the custom rom!!
UPDATE:
I can get to recovery (using CWM 5.5.0.4), however if I attempt to format the data partition, it gives me the following E:format_volume: make:extf3fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p13
How would I get around this?
Thanks!
Heh, looks like I haven't.
Managed to get it working again by using Geno's original partition, and then flashing Oxygen again.
Thanks!

Tab 7.7 P6810 SERIOUSLY bricked..!! :(

Hi Folks,
I'll try to be as detailed as possible..days ago, I flashed a custom ROM on my ICS 7.7 stock Tab, however it kept on a boot loop. I made a backup via CWM so I tried to restore back to ICS...can't restore it ("Error while restoring /system") OK, no worries....
I tried to flash the HC and ICS stock back using ODIN....can't do it (in both times, It keeps getting stuck at "factoryfs.img" at the beginning)...starting to get worried..
Tried to use adb shell and e2fsck -cy /dev/block/mmcblk0p9.... no luck (kept getting the "error reading block *numbers increasing* (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while reading inode and block bitmaps. Ignore error? yes Force rewrite? yes" and then nothing happened...tried to wipe/format data...CWM crashed
Tried to flash a P6810 PIT file to repartition the tab...no luck, ODIN still stuck at "factoryfs"
Tried to flash Android Stock Recovery...finally got wipe/format data to work...tried to flash "SkyHigh ROM" based on stock ICS (Remember that ODIN method doesn't work?) it installs, BUT when rebooting, it just stays looping at the Samsung Logo... now oficially Freaked out..!!:crying::crying:
Finally everytime I went to recovery mode, I get the following:
"E:failed to mount /preload (Invalid argument)
E:install_application_for_customer:can't mount /preload
your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu for format and reboot options
copy aplication failed"
Like I said, I can wipe/format data and cache on stock recovery (can't do it on CWM) and also can flash ROM .zips (can't do it in ODIN)
So, to sum it up:
- Can't flash anything using ODIN (stuck at factoryfs)
- Can't flash using CWM (getting Samsung logo bootloop)
- Can't wipe/format data on CWM, it crashes (althought I can do it with stock recovery)
- VERY BASIC skills in adb shell (don't know to use it very much)
- I know (hope) it's not hard bricked because I can enter Download and Recovery modes
- Basically at this point, yeah I'm pretty sure to start banging my head on the wall
Can anyone help me out on this one..??? It's been 4 days trying everything
Any, ANY help will be deeply appreciated... :crying:
Thanks
have you wiped using the stock recovery? this happened to me before (there's a thread here entitled stuck at bootscreen/boot loop) some let the device drain it's battery, what I did was wipe it using the factory wipe the connect via ODIN to install the stock HC ROM
I wiped using the stock recovery...however, everytime I try to flash HC or ICS stock ROM using ODIN, It gets stuck at the very beginning of the "FACTORYFS" phase....
Last night tried to adb shell but now it gives me the "/system/bin/sh failed: no such file or directory"
I've been reading every single thread about how to revive it, but somehow I can't....
Go to notes forum they have threads how to repartation yr tab n make it work

i got stuck at the 'FACTORYFS' in ODIN no matter what i tried. i had flashed CWM using ODIN, but no ROM would flash.
turns out my usb cable being plugged into a USB hub was the culprit. it still flashed CWM like that, but the first time i tried flashing the ROM with the USB plugged right into my desktop, it worked.
just throwing that out there.
Yes. Seems like you have emmc bricked your tab. There is a fix for it. Search for emmc bug

to add to this. while i was experiencing this, i too could not flash any zip rom via CWM, it would bootloop also.
however i could wipe cache using CWM, which you can't.
Finally got it working... !!! However I could only installed CM9 "successfully" since it keeps freezing and crashing...Is there any stable custom ROM that I can install via CWM..?? (Odin keeps hanging at "factory's")

Ext4 Bricked my Phone :/

Hy there, will explain shortly
cm10 last quarx build, (everything works perfect)
I save data through cwm and format ext4 and then restore data
whole day goes perfect
I go to sleep and when I turn it on It gives fc in every app of the system,
1. I try to install again the cm10 build doesnt work same problem
2. try to install any custom rom that have always worked (skanky roms, maniac, whiterabbit edition... all with the correct kernel installed)
3. in all of the cases It gets freezed in boot
4. I have bricked my phone many times, and I always have done alright using rsd to flash over and start from the beginning
5. so this is what I did, flashed with RSD the same sbf as I always do but I also get bootloop
6. Im pretty sure its because the ext4 partition, and I thought flashing rsd would reset the phone format too.. what can I do now?
Please Help ty
EDIT: As its a problem of ext4 partition you must power+down and format data, then the new sbf will work ^^

do
you have the pink screen? The best way to check is to remove the battery and the External SD card. Then plug in the power USB cable, press POWER and VOLUME DOWN button together. If the pink screen comes on then i think there is a chance.

you are not alone in this case. Even I have the same problem. I think the files from Huawei are corrupted. What I do is after installing the ORIGINAL ROM for the first time, at the FIRST BOOT, i use the program "Super One Click" to root the phone, and then install the apks so that i can quickly change the recovery.img to TCRW and then proceed to install the custom ROM of my choice.
I really suggest you go for Miui / Aurora (both are ICS) as the Jelly Bean custom ROMs are just way too buggy.

best to go here. It has both the files you need. I would recommend Forumber's partition.zip.
Go to recovery
Flash forumber's partition.zip
reboot recovery
flash forumber's partition.zip again
reboot recoery
delete the cache, system, data
reboot recovery
install custom rom
reboot into custom ROM (first boot)
WIN!
