Hi, my samsung galaxy y is bricked, the recovery mode shows that there is an error in mounting data, i am not able to flash a rom please help.
You haven't said what kernel you are using or your file system
if you have just flashed percys kernel you need to format system data & cache
so try formatting system data & cache in cwm (regardless of kernel)
After that try & mount again
if it still won't mount you can either
flash Whitexp kernel via odin as this can support all system partitions - you should be able to then format system data & cache
or flash stock firmware via odin (see dokys thread in dev section)

I rooted the galaxy y, installed CWM, wiped cache and data..etc., installed a custom rom but the phone can't boot..stuck in bootscreen. I tried to change the kernel to CM kernel, and install a stable cm7, everything worked, but still no boot... what can I do?

I've tried NukaRom V1.1.0 and CM7..happened the same..even with CM Kernel
Did you reboot to recovery after flashing kernel & mount system before flashing rom
Instructions to flash cm7
go to cwm
mount system
flash percy's cm #2 kernel
reboot to recovery
format system data cache
mount system data cache
flash cm7 zip
flash gapps (optional)
format data
restart
If you get bootloop remove sim card - if it boots change your stock rom firmware via odin
For stock based roms do as above but use a stock based kernel

Thanks man! It works
I am using GT S5360. I have installed reincarnation pre final and it didn't passed the screen where samsung galaxy Y GTs5360 comes.
I followed the whole procedure but not working. Any help ???
Did you flash kernel?
Mount system?
Remember that naturalizer or touchwiz rom isn't for galaxy y
after you flash percys cm#2 kernel you must reboot to recovery and wipe system data and cache before you flash the rom
the steps are as follows
go into cwm
mount system
flash percys #2 kernel
reboot to recovery
format system data cache
mount system data cache
flash rom zip
format data
restart
if the rom still doesnt boot after that take out your sim card
if the rom now boots you need to change your baseband by flashing a different stock rom firmware via odin
I flashed the jellybean version... I have restored the backup now and i followed all the steps... I flashed the zip file of kernel, rebooted recovery, formatted system, data, cache and then installed the rom... But it stucks on bootscreen... Dosen't even show the bootanimation...

2.Reboot the system and take out the battery and then put it again

go back into cwm and format data and restart
did you mount system data and cache before flashing the zip?
have you tried it without the sim card inserted?

Hi there,
I installed the PureKAT 1.5 ROM (based on stock) according to the instructions in its thread but my samsung galaxy y started in a bootloop.
Do you know what caused the bootloop or if I need to install a different kernel for that ROM?
By the way, this is the thread of the ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2672116
Thanks.
I looked at instructions on thread and it doesnt say to mount system data cache before flashing zip
so
go into cwm
goto mounts and storage
format system data cache
mount system data cache (if all mounted it should display "unmount system" "unmount data" and so on)
then flash the zip
you can be on any kernel that supports stock based roms
if you still bootloop flash stock rom via odin first

Thanks for the quick response sir!
I'll immediately restore the stock rom via odin and then follow your instructions.
I will post what happens
Bootloop persists
I first restored the original stock rom, followed your instructions but this time it just got stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy Y..." logo and it didn't go further.
Seems like my phone is not compatible with this rom?
Thanks!

that happens when you dont mount system or using the wrong kernel (since you are using stock kernel that is fine for a stock based rom - no change needed)
go back into cwm and make sure system is mounted (will display "unmount system)
if system says its already mounted unmount system and remount it again just to make sure especially if using bieltv.3 cwm
and flash the rom again
Mmm, tried several times but the same problem happens (I double checked to follow the instructions carefully and that the partitions were mounted).
I will try with other custom roms to see if at least one of them boots correctly.
Thanks for your help!
Hi,
I have installed Ultra Gb revolutionary 1.6 Rom and have been using it for a while. I wanted to remove all content on phone..so i tried to wipe data and reinstall the rom again. Rom flashed correctly and i rebooted the phone..but user apps were not removed, they are still on the phone.
I tried changing kernel, flash another rom, flashed utra gb again, the apps are still there, why?
You can try to conenct your sdcard to your PC and delete .android_secure, it contains sd apps that don't get deleted with /data
If it doesn't work you can use Wipe data option in settings :good:

Well, that may be a kernel issue! Try to install stock kernel/ROM via odin and get it all clean!

I think that's not the kernel, he said he tried to change it, i think he haves a problem because /data is not mounted,
OP use CWM and mount /data, then do wipe data & cache

While selecting Factory reset on cwm, data & cache are automatically mounted and both data, cache and .andtoid_secure is wiped! I'm jst sharing my experience, it happened with me few times while using percy_g2 kernel! The best option for me was odin!
In CWM in general partition is mounted when wiped, I think switching kernel and try again
Flash another CM kernel and wipe data then return to your kernel, or do a factory reset from setting in phone
Try to use odin. Your userdata.img may be Corrupted
Press Thanks if Helped
Well a simple solution to the problem :
1.Go to CWM,mount all the partitions and flash percy's kernel (CyanogenMod #2)
2.Go back and then go to advanced > reboot recovery
3.Now you'll be in Percy's recovery and from there,under mounts and storage,format data and format cache.
4.Go back and then go to mounts and storage and mount all the partitions.
5.Flash back to bieltv.3's kernel and reboot.
Finally, i had to flash flash stock Rom via Odin and go back to ultra gb.. Thanks for all the help guys

1st download the below file & put it in /sdcard/firmware/ (u ve to make a folder in the root of sdcard & name it as "firmware" .
then go to recovery, install zip from sdcard, then choose CWM, then in CWM install zip from sdcard & install the zip u ve downloaded in the /sdcard/firmware/ .Then install any rom.
note: this zip package format ur system/data/cache
1)Easy way without pc to solve the issue download multiformatter.zip (search forum) flash this zip in cwm it will open aroma installer follow the instructions and format the partitions to rfs. Close aroma mount everything and flash any rom.
2) Flash stock rom via odin. (PC reqd.)
