[Q] Is my Defy Bricked? (CWM Recovery Error)

Wanted to install the Defy+ ROM for my Defy(SOC, Green) and just rooted it with superoneclick. I installed the bootmenu and everything seem to work fine but when I select "Custom Recovery" I receive the following error
ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.8
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mtdblock8 (file exists)
E:Can't mount CACHE: recovery/command
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mtdlock8 (file exists)
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't find MISC:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mtdblocks (file exists).
Is the device bricked? How do I fix this? When I try normal boot, phone gets boot and everything else works fine*

Install latest boot menu and clockwork mod, find the thread from development section.
It is very hard to brick defy, don't worry with these errors.
Which version of 2ndInit installed? 2.0 or 1.9? If you had then it would have stable 1.0.7 recovery which installs 5.0.3+ recovery. Enjoy flashing.

oh, think i had the same. but that appeard only if i selected "Custom Recovery".
Instead, i tried first the Android Bootmenu (Motorola Stock recovery) and then select "Recovery" and there i had also the option "stable recovery".
Under Stable Recovery everything worked fine.
hope it'll help u.

[Q] Need urgent help, can't mount cache

Hi guys
I really need help with my G2.
Basically, I installed resurrection remix, everything working fine for a week.
Today, when i used my phone, it kept force restarting. Finally, it got into a LG logo bootloop and has not been able to start up.
I managed to get into TWRP recovery but when I tried to reflash my ROM it said it could not mount system.
I decided to flash CWM to see if I could fix the problem and sure enough, it fixed but there is another problem.
When i tried to wipe cache, it hangs and freezes and gets stuck on formatting cache.
I reboot and I see these messages below:
E: Can't mount /sdcard/
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I decide to try wiping cache again but to no avail.
can anybody help me?
Thanks in advance

Boot Loop Nexus 4 - dead eMMC?

Recently, my Nexus 4 has been crashing randomly - shutting off with no warning or notice. It has always rebooted back up without issues. Last night, however, it just got stuck in a boot loop - spinning balls for hours on end.
Bootloader and Recovery Mode come up with no trouble.
The phone is and always has been pure OEM/stock. I've only ever updated using built in OTA process.
I tried to reflash to stock using Wug's Nexus Toolkit, but it repeatedly failed saying the device was locked. I tried to unlock the bootloader, but that seems to require a reboot to take hold, and every time I tried the reboot it would loop again.
In Recovery Mode, I get the following:
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argiument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:can t open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:can t mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E:can t open /cache/recovery/last_install​
I have downloaded the full image and tried flashing the cache, and system with no effect. Toolkit doesn't show an error, but nothing changes.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm at a loss.

Did you try
fastboot erase cache.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
Then perform wipe data/factory reset before booting into android.
