Soft Brick - FAILED TO MOUNT SYSTEM - Help

Good night guys, so there's my problem:
I was on DN 0.6.1 custom ROM, TWRP 3.0.2.0 and rooted. Today, i wanted to go back to stock ROM, so, I downloaded the stock firmware throught sammobile, and tried to install it throught ODIN 3.11, but it's stopped at system.img, and remained stuck in it for a long time. so i decided to restart the phone..
Then it's showed the follow message:
firmware upgrade encountered an issue note 4. Please select recovery mode on kies and try again.
So, i tried to re-flash throught ODIN, but stucked at system.img again, after it, I downloaded KIES and tried restore it, but it's stopped at 2%.
I wasn't abble to go to recovery mode, only download mode, so, i extracted the ROM file, and flashed only the boot.img through ODIN. Now it's boot to recovery...
I wiped data/cache, but the following error showed up:
E: Failed to mount system (invalid argument).
and now i can't find a solution for it.. tried to do amost anything that i could find on the internet, but none solved my problem...
I'm wanting to flash PIT + CSC + PDA file, using the repartition option on ODIN, but i'm afraid that may brick my phone for ever...
I'm following this tutorial by now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...te-4-pit-files-repartiton-f-g-c-t-w8-t3282641
And i need this CSC file, because my phone is the C version, could someone give me link to download it ? couldn't find in any place.
ANd there's someone who could help me ? i'm very concerned about it because i don't have money to buy another phone at the moment...
Thanks, and yes, already looked at XDA for a answer but couldn't fine any.
THANK YOU :good:

Anyone ?

S7 Edge G935F // Faulty ODIN flash // Stuck in Bootloader [SOLVED]

Hi Guys,
today I wanted to flash the latest Stock ROM for my device via ODIN. I've done this many times before and (thought) I knew what I was doing. It is my third Phone frome the same carrier and none of them were branded/ locked devices before. Unfortunatly I wasn't aware that this particular device was locked.
After downloading the international firmware I tried to install it and ODIN got stuck while writing the system.img. After that my phone did not boot up (of course). After that I downloaded and tried to isntall the firmware of the carrier, but I had the exact same issue. When I turn my device on I get to an error screen which tells me to execute an "emergency recovery" via the Samsung smart switch software. But it too gets stuck on some point and only gets me to an error screen.
FRP hinders me to install a custom recovery and the stock one does not allow any isntallations via ADB or SD card.
My qustion is: Does anyone know how I can install a rom from here?
I know that I had to have made some changes prior to the flashing, but as I said I was not aware and an Idiot for not double checking.
Since it is not bricked yet I suppose there must be an answer but I can't find anything.
Thanks in advance
Edit:
After only installing the stock bootloader, I am autmaticly entering it when I boot my devive. On the bottom of the screen is an error message: "dm-verity verification failed...
E:failed to mount /system (invalid argument)"

Fix
For anyone in the same situation: I fixed it.
In the end all you have to do is flash the firmware with the fitting PIT file. If you firmware consists of multiple files and there is a "HOME"-file, flash it with this one first on the AP slot in ODIN. After that the same again just use the AP file this time.
My phone is up and running again now.

have u solved your problem ? This problem i am facing on the s7edge nougat ? Plz help ?

Hey,
look at the second post I made in this thread. There is described how I got my S7 up and running again. I'm not sure if it is a valid solution since it felt like trial and error to me, but I'm writing this text from my S7 so it might be worth a try!
Good luck!

I described everything I did in the posts before.
As soon as you can enter the system again all you need to do is deactivate the locks I was talking about in my first post and perform a full wipe.
After that you can install any ROM you want via ODIN just like you are used to.
If that doesn't work for you, I don't have any answers either.
But again:
Prep work:
1. Download most recent ODIN
2. Download the correct firmware for your carrier (from www.sammobile.com)
3. Download the correct PIT file for your device
4. Put your device in download mode
Process:
1. Extract your firmware if it is a zip
2. Start up ODIN
3. Connect your device and check if it's detected by ODIN
3. Put the PIT file in ODIN
4. Put the "HOME" file of your firmware in the PDA slot of ODIN
5. Press start
6. When finished unplug your device and restart phone and ODIN
7. Reconnect your phone and check if it's detected by ODIN
8. Put all the other files of your firmware + the PIT in the correct slot in ODIN
9. Press start
After that my device booted up but still was, as you described too, a little buggy. So I deactivated FRP, activated USB debugging in the dev options, installed TWRP, performed a full wipe and installed another firmware of my choosing via ODIN (without a PIT file this time).
I am running 7.0 on my device now and it works flawlessly.

Does the TWRP flash complete? Can you boot up the OS after you flashed TWRP? (And did you download the correct version of TWRP for your device?)
As a last resort, you could try and flash marshmallow on your device and see if it works there.

if i flash marshmallow it doesnt even boot up and in the odin mode showing binary and everything as custom , if i flash nougat and then flash twrp and try to manually boot into twrp it stucks on the s7edge screen which comes before recovery , and if i boot the mobile normally without the button combination then it stucks on the second logo SAMSUNG . if i flash again the stock recovery then boots normally

Have you tried to perform a regular factory reset via the OS on nougat? Sometimes that does the job, too.
But as I said. I can only give you my best guess here - my phone worked after my procedure, so I didn't investigate further.
And don't forget: Google is your friend.

Well I had the same issue but Odin method didn't work for me on Nougat. And also FRP lock was On. every time I flashed the files it give me FRP on error. so I had to use Smartswitch. Even though I used original csc and ap files with latest Odin. BTW I have SM-G935FD model

Well FRP has to be turned off (the button in the menu is called "OEM unlock, the button has to be set to on which deactivates FRP). You don't mention using a PIT file - did you use one?

soft bricked my G928F

It's a long story but I soft bricked my G928F.
I bought it off Gumtree in the U.K and it had an frp lock on it, the seller stated that she had wiped it off so would not take it back. I had a read around and it seemed that Wondershare Dr. Fone would take off the frp lock........it didn't, rather it messed up the stock recovery. When attempting to enter recovery I get the following message and am stuck in a bootloop:
No Support SINGLE - SKU
Supported API: 3
dm-verity error
failed code: 0x02
E: failed to mount /cache (invalid argument)
While Odin will recognise the phone Smart Switch will not so I am unable to use the emergency recovery procedure.
I have read similar posts where it implies Smart Switch is the last resort but in my case that doesn't seem to be an option
Can anyone suggest a way to recover the phone or do I throw it in the bin? Any help appreciated

Flash this using odin :
https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1tg9hJOCquyfuyROYtgpxyVKNbuidzdL8&export=download
Then, you will be able to flash latest version normaly, and also your will remove frp lock.

Thanks for that, I will flash it when I get home and report back.

Didn't work for me, the combination file gave an 'md5 error! Binary is invalid' message when loading into Odin, while renaming to .tar the flash failed.
firmware update start
Single download
sboot bin
param.bin
FAIL
Thanks for your suggestion though.

I tried installing firmware G928FXXS5CRH1 (VOD) but it failed at hidden system image, I removed that file and created a .tar which flashed successfully but the phone rebooted
to recovery initially but still showed a dm-verity error. I deleted the cache and then factory reset which appeared to also complete successfully but the phone would not boot up.
I then tried flashing the hidden sys image on its own but that failed and the phone went to the Smart Switch error recovery page, Smart Switch will not recognise the phone so will not allow access to the emergency recovery facility.
Still trying though if anyone has any idea's.

Hi there,
Im in the same boat. It had the verity error too.
BUT:
For me it worked to flash the 4-part firmware of the G928FXXS5CRH1 via Odin then.
The device boots again, without the verity error
It had Android 5.1 before, when I could flash the COMBINATION ROM and use it just fine.
(but it was a Android 7 combination ROM) :/
After flashing Android 7 debranded (G928FXXS5CRH1) in 4-parts (BL, AP, CC and CSC file) the FRP lock is still there of course,
but the phone is booting again without the verity error.
COMBINATION ROM will no longer let me flash it, though.

The download I did via the tool "samfirm" use chk32 and decrypt on downloading !
"SM-G928F_1_20180828170540_5avji4munw_fac"

Thanks for the reply, I fixed it myself in the end. I spent 2 days over Xmas until I eventually tried the solution that you have suggested. I eventually found a 4 part software. AS to the FRP lock, be it good luck or persistence, I managed to get rid of that as well using Samsung FRP Tool.

Hell Friend, Not sure If you could get this message, If yes, Kindly help me., I am facing the same issue with my Samsung Galaxy Note 5 (N920G/I) but could not find 4 parts FRP unlock firmware. Do let me know If anyone finds one.

SM-930P after NAND wipe. Stock firmware will flash, stuck on recovery update loop...

Was trying to get this phone rooted and backdate the OS to 7.0 and wiped the NAND in hopes that it would clear the 8.0 ver 5 boot loader. Now what, is it completely soft bricked? I can load the firmware but it sticks in a boot loop on the recovery update!

Just Odin a newer firmware and your phone should be fixed

I tried that already and it's stuck in recovery loop...

More details may help...
The phone starts to boot into recovery, then says "installing sys update" then splashes...
"#fail to open recovery_cause(no such file or file or directory)#
#Reboot Recovery Cause is [UNKNOWN]#
No Support SINGLE-SKU
File-Based OTA
Supported API: 3
dm-verity verification failed...
E:failed to mount /cache (invalid argument)"
then it loops back into recovery.

Do you have the right firmware? What is your device...G 930p? The modded Odin? Also, maybe redownload the firmware file again.

Yes it's the right firmware, correct it's a SM-G930P. Didn't know the modded Odin made a difference, I've tried both versions of Odin...
When I flash the firmware now it fails during the "boot" part of the firmware upload.

Well, turns out it might have just been a garbage USB cable! Got the phone reflashed, but now there's a NEW PROBLEM! Phone boots now but I go through the WiFi and agreement boxes... But as soon as it does that and chews on the next "welcome! preparing your device for first time use... This may take 3-4 minutes" it then just reboots continuously back to that screen!

Tried two different firmware images and it does the same thing!

NM I got it figured out, used the WRONG home file! Derp!

Bricked S7 Edge?

Recently, I turned off developer options in my rooted S7 Edge (SM-G935FD). Idk if that is the cause, but after rebooting I got the error "Custom Binary Blocked by FRP Lock". I couldnt boot into my recovery (TWRP) either. I was running on Oreo btw. I watched some Youtube guides and apparently the solution was to flash stock rom. So... I flashed an Oreo Stock Rom on my phone via Odin. I thought that would solve my problem, but instead it made it worse. It didnt give me the Custom Binary Blocked by FRP lock error but my boot screen is stuck at the boot animation (not a bootloop). I could boot into the stock recovery tho. I tried a factory reset, that didnt make things better. I could also boot into download mode. I thought I made a mistake, so I flashed like 5-8 times with both CSC an Home_CSC. The result was the same, it would get stuck at the boot animation. I tried flashing TWRP via Odin too, but it said "Custom Binary (Recovery) blocked by FRP Lock". I tried sideloading that TWRP file to my device via ADB. It gave me an error too (I think "Cannot flash from external devices" or something like that) I thought flashing with Re-partition and Nand Erase On would solve my problem, so I tried that, but it didnt work. Im running on Binary 3 apparently. Is there anything I can do?

I still have the "FRP Lock: On" on download mode, so I tried bypassing FRP lock via binary 5 combination firmware and flashing a binary 7 stock firmware. This time, it doesnt get stuck at the boot animation, instead it redirects to a screen with an android face saying "Installing System updates". A few seconds later, it says "No command" with a dead android face. Then it reboots and the same thing happens. Basically a boot loop, but in a different way. I cant seem to boot to stock recovery either. The worst thing is that I cant even turn off the thing. I have to leave it loop for the entire day until its battery dies

That is what I literally did. I flashed a combination firmware, factory rested my entire phone, turned on developer options as well as allow usb debugging, attempted to reset FRP via Z3X Samsung Tool Pro and finally flashed a stock rom. And, the result is this. A bootloop with an android face dying. I did manage to enter a different screen by pressing volume up once along with pressing volume down and power button. It said "could not open recovery_because_no file directory" and had some more errors. The thing is....I made it worse at the first place. I could have flashed a room with binary 6 or lower, cuz at least the combination firmware would have been available to flash, but my stupid brain did not think of that. I flashed a binary 7 stock rom and there is no combination firmware with a binary of 7 or more. Which means, I will most likely get the "SW check fail Device: 7 Binary: 6 " error while flashing.

If the device is still entering download mode, install the recent version of stock for your device. Maybe that will solve your problem.

the "no such file or directory" error is due to either having had removed stock recovery in flashing the firmwares or the factory recovery corrupted due to likely the same reason. Just flash a revision 7 firmware for your phone and it will at least boot

I have literally flashed the latest stock rom for my device and my country which is G935FXXS7ESK8.
I am a bit confused tho...I am not sure if my device is SM-G935FD or SM-G935F. The download mode says SM-G935F...but this phone used to work with a SM-G935FD rom back in the days. Is this causing the problem most likely? And btw the repair shop said they cant fix it too

1 - After booting up my phone I get the blue background with a dead Android and "No Command" message
2 - I tried accessing recovery by pressing Power+Home+VolumeUp, but all I get is a black screen with a wall of code lines with "fail to open recovery_cause(No such file or directory)" at the beggining of the text.
3 - "No problem! I'll just flash TWRP with ODIN and install a custom ROM and be done with it!".
..NOPE! FRP(factory reset protection) is ON!!! I cannot install TWRP
4- I've tried to find a combination file with binary version 7...but looks like the internet doesn't seem to care about the good ol' number 7...All I can find is binary version 6.
What Im trying to do now is creating my own combination file binary version 7 (if that's even a thing...) from a stock firmware. But I'm not getting any luckier down this path.
Looks like we need a hero...:crying:

OMGGGGGGGG....Looks like I am not the only one. DAMN. Bro...tell me if you find a solution ok? Hopefully there is a way to solve this problem...there has to be one. And share your combination firmware after you finish it. Thank you very much

No luck over here friend...
Desperate times require desperate measures. Have you ever tried flashing combination files from different S7 Edge versions?
I can find files for the G935A with a revision 7 of the binary...Im thinking flashing it into my G935F and see what happens. I've read the risks associated with installing firmwares from other phone versions, but I'll have a paperweight either way.
I'll keep this thread updated.

I have literally flashed the latest stock rom for my device and my country which is G935FXXS7ESK8.
I am a bit confused tho...I am not sure if my device is SM-G935FD or SM-G935F. The download mode says SM-G935F...but this phone used to work with a SM-G935FD rom back in the days. Is this causing the problem most likely? And btw the repair shop said they cant fix it too

Doesn't really matter if you have a F or FD. I'd say you flash the latest stock rom for G935F or FD(which ever is latest) for any country regardless. By this you should be able to boot and won't get any odin errors.

Can you provide me the link plz.

Turns out, its a hardware problem with the storage. Replacing the motherboard might be the solution I think. :/

I had solved my phone last day
At first u can flash ur phone to leatest stock rom. Then u have to turn of frp lock. Then u will able to boot up your phone. If u cant fix u can knock me on facebook. (If u r a z3x user). Bcoz u need z3x for bypass frp with ufs cable.
Im also using s7 edge.

Does it matter if I use the cracked version without box. And no, I dont have the ufs cable. Is there anything else I can do?

Hi guys, I have the exact same problem with my S7 edge from T-mobile (g935t). Odin will only accept for flash the latest rom and after flash it reboots but I get BSOD. I tried a pit file also from an old g935T rom which was android 6.0 and I managed to get into recovery for a moment and I did a factory reset/wipe cache but after reboot entered again in a black screen and the blue led was lit. I finally removed the battery to turn the phone off. I can still enter download mode but is there anything else I can do to resurrect the phone?

Samsung s7 edge (g935f)
Hi everyone , please am having issue of NO COMMAND and i cant boot into recovery. My oem is on so i cant install twpr neither. Am on binary u8. Please any solution to recover my phone?

Very very good new guys...yep you guessed it right. I was able to fix this problem.
How you may ask? Follow these steps
Note: Make sure you have enough battery. Lack of battery charge in my case caused alot of problems.
1. Download a U7 Rom for your SM-G935F or SM-G935FD
2. Extract the Rom as well as the AP
3. After you extract the AP, you will be greeted with boot.lz4.img , recovery.lz4.img , system.lz4.img & meta-data
4. Make a backup of recovery.lz4.img and meta-data just in case. Also, make a copy of boot.lz4.img and rename the copied one to recovery.lz4.img. Don't forget to delete the original recovery and meta-data
5. Now, you should be left with boot.lz4.img , (modified) recovery.lz4.img and system.lz4.img.
6. Now, download this https://www.mediafire.com/file/ah20ha869prdkkc/Autotar2.0_By_FixFirmwares.com.rar/file
7. Now, make a .md5 file that contains (modified) recovery.lz4.img and system.lz4.img
8. After you are done making that .md5, flash it along with CSC, CP and BL.
9. You should directly boot into your device, (if you do), charge your phone for a while if the battery is lower than 20%.
10. Then, go to the settings and enable OEM Unlock before doing ANYTHING
11. Then, reboot to download mode and flash TWRP
12. Download the no-verity-encryption.zip
https://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfe
13. Allow system modifications and format data (NOT WIPE)
14. If that doesn't work, go to TWRP, connect it to your PC and copy the no-verity-encryption.zip file and install it
15. If that still doesn't work then, follow this tutorial
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....niversal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389/amp/
16. Then, you should boot and yea...enjoy ?
If this method doesn't work then, you need to try different combinations.
Try packing these files in AP
1. Boot.lz4.img, (Modified) Recovery.lz4.img & system.lz4.img
2. (Modified) Recovery.lz4.img & system.lz4.img
3. Meta-data, Boot.lz4.img, (Modified) Recovery.lz4.img & system.lz4.img
If that doesn't work, I'm sorry this is how I fixed it. ?*
For anyone wondering how I fixed it well, firstly a HUGE THANKS TO @shah22 & @Tapas27sTapas2. This would have been LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT THEM. So, basically I tried an AP with renamed recovery.lz4.img and system.lz4.img only along with CP, CSC and BL. Due to my phone having literally 0%, this journey was very difficult.
Feel free to ask any question
