[HELP] Mount Error with Voodoo Enabled & Disabled - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
I posted about this earlier but don't think I explained it well enough so let me try again. Last night I put Voodoo on my phone. Then this morning I was messing with some mods and I booted the phone into clockwork recovery. In there I cleared my cache and then i went to advanced>Wipe Dalvik Caceh and got this
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2
(File exists)
I cleared the Dalvik Cache and it said it completed successfully. Then I remember that line showing up when you tried to flash something or perform a nandroid with voodoo enabled. So I booted up my phone and everything appears to be ok. I am able to download apps, everything seems to be working, ect. Then I go into Terminal and type "mount" and this is the what I get back
$mount

I know from previously typing "mount" when confirming whether i am ext4 or rfs that this is very wrong looking. At the top where it says "/dev/block/stl6 /mnt/.lfs j4fs rw 0 0" it previously would say "/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /data rfs rw" ... So what the heck does this mean? I have disabled voodoo and that did not change it. I have even downloaded the froyo that don't brick and downgraded back to 2.1 true stock and I am still getting this. I have this funny feeling that my cache is lost in limbo or something. Can anyone tell me whether this is normal or what it means? I just want to make sure that nothing is out of place or if something is wrong, what I need to do to fix it. Thanks in advance!

You won't be able to wipe dalvik-cache with voodoo enabled. It's located in the /data mount which Clockwork won't be able to access.
The mount you posted looks fine. Your /data is mounted at /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 as rfs. The /cache is mounted at /dev/block/stl11. Everything is where it's supposed to be. The order isn't important.

Thanks for the reply. However, after reverting back to 100% stock (voodoo disabled) I have rooted, installed clockwork, and tried wiping the dalvik cache again. Everytime when I click advanced>wipe dalvik cache it still gives me the "can't mount... (file exists)" bit. Is that normal?
EDIT: So I think I may have figured this out. That partition is used to install apps to your sd card, which is only present in Froyo. Soooo it is normal to receive that error when running 2.1...

[Q] Wrong Partition Type

I soft bricked my Vibrant after installing Bionix 1.4 w/Jacs OC/UV/Voodoo kernel. I used Odin to flash back to stock rom which was unsuccessful. It allowed me to boot to the samsung logo and then go black.
Grasping at straws I used clockwork recovery to do a nandroid restore to the vibrant9 rom I was running before (with the KingKlick kernel, but as I understand it nandroid doesnt backup or restore kernels). I thought maybe the kernel got switched back to the stock one but I'm lacking a ROM? Anyway, nandroid restored the system files but when going to restore data it gave me an error about not finding mmcblk0p2, when I go into adb shell and type mount, it tells me I have mmcblk0p3.
Is there any way for me to fix this so I can restore from my nandroid backups? I have everything in titanium and I can still access all the data on the sd card, but I'd really like to just have things back to how they were before installing the Bionix.
Thanks!
Here is a complete copy of what comes up when I hit mount if it helps. Could really use some assistance here, I try to do as much on my own as possible but I've hit a dead end.

Ok, thanks for all the help guys....
Anyway, for anyone who is having the same problem, I found my solution to be to get into download mode via instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=741027&highlight=unbrick
And then follow the instructions in Fix 1 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782027
I had to upgrade to froyo then downgrade to get my file system back.
I'm now on stock Vibrant kernel and rom, but flashing Bionix 1.5 in a moment (NO VOODOO!!!)
Exact same thing
i had to do the exact same thing this morning. except mine would boot up fully. i couldnt get the internal memory to recognize at all so i couldnt disable the lagfix
blah blah blah... odin and fix 1 worked. i wished i had backups on my computer i should know better by now too. thats the stupid part. all that data lost.
Yea, I'm not new to this sort of thing, just this piece of hardware. I felt really confident after flashing a few ROM's and always read instructions for each new install, I was really surprised to find myself in that pickle. At least I learned something.
Going forward I'm being very dilligent about organizing a backup of my nandroid backups, different ROM's, everything needed to get back to stock, and most importantly the contents of my internal SD card! Nothing had ever messed with that partitioin before so I thought it would be fine, I also thought that nandroid or titanium would backup all my e-books since they were imported into Aldiko, WRONG-O!, it just saves the library index, gotta re-import over 600 books :O
Gotta love nothing ever being good enuf, now I'm off to fix what I broke on my car...

[Q] Wiping Dalvik Cache in Clockword Recovery

Ok so I have a question about wiping the Dalvik Cache in Clockword Recovery. When I boot into recovery I go to Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache. Upon clicking this I am prompted with
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 <----IS THIS NORMAL?
(File exists)
Then it brings up the no,no,no, yes - wipe dalvik cache,no, no, no screen and I click yes and it says that everything went smooth.
I wiped the cache w/out disabling voodoo from clockwork and just want to make sure this is either A-normal or B-needs to be fixed. Voodoo has since been disabled and I then flashed to JFD Stock and then JI6 Stock and everything seems fine. I just remember reading that the "can't mount" is terrible news when coupled with Voodoo. Can anyone one confirm for me whether this is normal or not? Thanks!
Can someone help shed some light on this please? When I mount in terminal I get this back
$ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$PATH

I've done mount before and there is definitely something funny about this. I think it's that "/dev/block/stl6 /mnt/lfs j4fs" towards the top. Voodoo it's disabled so why does it still look off? Anyone?
Not sure but I am getting the same thing on my droid incredible. Same error, wonder if that is why some of my rom's are acting strange.

I actually figured it out. The partition mmcblk1p2 is used for installing apps to your external SD card which is only present in froyo. So if you are running 2.1 Eclair then its normal for it not to be able to mount it, but if you are running froyo then there might be a prob...

[Q] remount read-write

I have a Huawei T-Mobile Mytouch 4G Q slider (U8730) and i have successfully rooted it. I havent flashed any ROM's or anything like that and i have browsed through alot of the forums and Google and havent found what i need to know. I need to know how to use the "mount a filesytem read-write" command, i know the syntax:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
i just dont know what information to input in the command.
i know i can use:
# mount
and that will give me a lot of info but im not too sure what im looking for.
if theres another thread about this, i apologize, im new to this forum and not 100% how to navigate.

Partition refers to a specific file system. For example the /boot partition contains the kernel and ramdisk for booting up your device (Note: /boot partition and bootloader partition are not the same thing), the /cache partition contains cache files, the /system partitions contains your system apps and other system folder such as bin and xbin and other. What apps are you trying to use that you need to mount rw for? But if you wanted to modify your /system partition for example you would run the following command from ADB shell or terminal emulator to mount it rw (Read/write):
Code:
su
mount -o rw,remount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
Let me know if you still have questions about this.

You obviously do not have the permission to do that, so the question is, are you rooted, and if so root again and be sure to have the latest SuperSU installed with updated binaries.

My kernel version is 3.40-perf [email protected] #1 and bootloader is unlocked.
I gained root by downgrading my firmware to .532 version and install rooting using a program called Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v33. After rooting is successful, install dualrecovery and upgrade my firmware to .757 version by flashing a specific zip file via recovery followed by flash FTF with Flashtool.
Am I doing it correctly? Is there a better way to do it?

I would try to reflash supersu and see if that fixes it
I'm not sure. I'm having the same issue, sort of. I can mount /system to read write easily but can't mount back to read only. Getting "resource busy" message. Running a 4.4.2 LG G2 ROM. Could it have anything to do with how /system is formatted within TWRP recovery? Idk.. Luckily not being able to mount as read only isn't exactly an issue but more of a nuisance.
Edit:: Found a solution minutes after posting.
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /system # works fine
mount -o remount,ro /system # resource busy error
mount -o remount ro /system # works fine without comma
With this knowledge I can go through and fix a few scripts that have the comma between remount and ro. Not sure why this is as it's always worked fine ever since my OG DROID.
Any updates ??

Internal SD Is Now Broken after Going to Lollipop. Need Advice.

I was able to install lollipop on my phone. But I couldn't get root. I lost some information. So I went back to my backup 4.3 within TWRP and that's when it all went to ****. HWuserdata can't be mounted and sometimes internal_sd can't be mounted either.
What I can do:
-Install new roms
-Install backups [restore them]
-Access to adb
-Can push out img through through adb/fastboot
What I can't do:
-with all of the above, the internal sd doesn't mount in ANY of the roms [both 4.3 and 5.1]
-Can't remove /hwuserdata in TWRP
-Can't remove /internal_sd in TWRP [Error message: E: Unable to mount '/internal_sd']
More Error Messages:
E: Block device not present, cannot wipe internal storage.
E: Unknown MTP message type: 1
E: Unable to wipe 'internal_sd'
Updating partition details...
E: Update to mount 'internal_sd'
Available Partitions as in the Wape menu within TWRP 2.8.7.1
-Dalvik Cache
-Cache
-data
-Internal Storage 11975MB
-System
-Custom Storage
-Internal Storage 0MB [There is actually two of these partition.]
-External Storage
-USB OTG
My best guess is delete the internal sd some how. And/or remove /hwuserdata as well. Or completely return it to stock. Then install 4.3, install TWRP 2.8.7.1, install 5.1, and finally install root. I can't find the img file to push out through adb in "Fastboot&Rescue Mode".
Can someone point me to stock img? This didn't fix my issue within TWRP. I tried installing "MT2L03_B148_Stock_ROM.zip" within TWRP.
All advice would greatly be appreciated.
Thanks!
UPDATE 7/2:
sdcard0 / internal_sd is still broken after applying the downgrade and the b309 rom. Does anyone have the stock rom in an img file format?
Download the public preview of B309 from the blog.
Install it as instructed in the blog post. (You will lose your data, so backup.)
To root and get TWRP, do the below.
Credit to Foltz61.
1. Boot to bootloader.
2. Fastboot boot TWRP-L.img
3. Install supersu-2.49.zip (even though I didn't lose root)
4. Reboot back to system.
5. Reboot back to bootloader.
6. fastboot flash recovery TWRP-L.img.
7. fastboot reboot.
8. Boot to recovery and had TWRP
Thanks for the reply. But I am still stuck with a broken sdcard0 / internal_sd partition. Does anyone have a stock rom in an img file format? Applying the B309.zip and downgrading to 4.3 provided by Huawei still hasn't fixed my problem.
Oh my God...... Which version of TWRP did you use when you restored using your 4.3 backup???
Please, tell me you did not use TWRP 2.8.7.1-L or 2.8.7.0-L for that matter???
in current state, maybe you can try use parted to print your current partition table, and paste here
adb within twrp, it has parted builtin, under OS, you need install the binary.
parted /dev/blk/mmcblk0
unit b
print

DO NOT USE TWRP-L IF YOU ARE ON JELLYBEAN 4.3. IT IS MEANT ONLY FOR LOLLIPOP.

I installed 4.3 with the huawei files and went over to 5.1. I am not sure if I am in the clear yet. I have a "emulated 0" partition for my sdcard0/internal_sd. When I open ES file browser, it says "no sdcard can be found". But I can write to this "emulated 0" partition. I am guessing this is still broken? I am on TWRP 2.8.7.0 with 5.1.

Open terminal, type and enter, su, then type and enter, mount. Share with me what mount says.
That's the same as mine

The emulated 0 partition is the same as I have. That should be your internal memory.

Still, to be sure he didn't screw something up since he did use TWRP-L while on 4.3 JellyBean, I still want to see what, mount, displays for him on his terminal.
Emulated partition
I'm using X-plore file manager and I'm not seeing internal_sd but rather getting the internal SD drive showing up under Root/Storage/Emulated/0
I've tried reverting back to 4.3 and associated TWRP, but X-plore still doesn't show internal_sd properly. I'm pretty sure it used to show it properly...or am I imagining it

On 4.3 yes, on 5.1 yes, but on 5.1 it's main location is /data/media/0
You can check by opening terminal and typing then entering, mount.
so as long as it accessible by going to /data/media/0 then its all okay, even though it doesn't show up as an actual drive under X-Plore?
Thanks for your time and help.

Mine is also screwed up after the upgrade and I cannot get back to stock, nor can I get TWRP back. Yes, I've reflashed supersu etc. Here's my dump.

Updated to 5.1 (was a beta tester). After the upgrade, root, but no TWRP. Tried numerous times to reflash TWRP-L but still the stock EMUI 3 persists. Have verified I can fastboot TWRP to restore previous backups and create new backups but cannot make TWRP permanent.
Have tried the reinstall of SuperSI 2.4x and all the steps multiple times with no success. Tried the Huawei downgrade to B148 and that fails as well.
Regarding trying to install TWRP, that is because of the 5.1 Rom. It checks to see if the recovery is stock. If it isn't then it will overwrite the custom recovery. TWRP has to be booted and system has to be mounted as read/write, not read only, in order for it to patch the Rom so TWRP will stick.
I can't help regarding the beta test Rom though. I was not a tester. So I cannot say specifically what changes there were between the beta Rom and official released Rom. Maybe @xordos, @kimtyson, @Iguanadon, @ScoobSTi or someone else can assist regarding your current dilemma.

Try removing anything related to twrp on internal and/or external sd. Backup if needed. Then fastboot boot twrp. You should get the prompt about read/write.
Edit: remember to use 2.8.0 L
Sent from my MT2L03 using XDA Free mobile app
I am also new to the 5.1 fused internal storage. following is what I noticed.
/sdcard is soft link to /storage/emulated/legacy, which in turn is link to /storage/emulated/0, which again is link to /mnt/shell/emulated/0, which is the internal storage fused to /data: /data/media/0.
But some how ES file explorer can not handle it. In ESFileExplorer in my B309, it show /sdcard as a *file* with a tiny link icon, instead of others normal one (like /vendor) which showed as a *folder* with a tiny link. And every time, when I open ESFileExplorer, it also report error, "/sdcard can not find" something like that. I have to go to its settings page, Directory Settings, and set "Home Directory" to "/storage/emulated/0", then the error is gone. For me, I changed it to /storage/sdcard1, which is my external sdcard.
Another side notes, if sometime your app (that requires root) complains can not write to storage, goto SuperSU settings, and disable "Mount namespace separation", this may help resolve lots of problem.
These is more info from the command line, I can not tell the different between /sdcard and /vendor, but ESFileExplorer can not open /sdcard
(when run these "ls" as non-root user, the result is same)
Code:
[email protected]:/ # ls -l sdcard
ls -l sdcard
lrwxrwxrwx root root 1970-01-01 00:20 sdcard -> /storage/emulated/legacy
[email protected]:/ # ls -l vendor
ls -l vendor
lrwxrwxrwx root root 1970-01-01 00:20 vendor -> /system/vendor
[email protected]:/ # ls -l sdcard/
ls -l sdcard/
drwxrwx--- root sdcard_r 2008-12-31 18:48 Alarms
drwxrwx--x root sdcard_r 2015-07-03 03:36 Android
...
[email protected]:/ # ls -l vendor/
ls -l vendor/
drwxr-xr-x root shell 2015-06-24 13:09 etc
drwxr-xr-x root shell 2015-06-24 13:09 firmware
...
PS, Just realized in the phone setting-storage, I can set default storage to "External", then after that /sdcard become normal as it is not link to fused FS anymore:
Code:
[email protected]:/ # ls -l /sdcard
ls -l /sdcard
lrwxrwxrwx root root 1970-01-01 04:15 sdcard -> /storage/sdcard1
[email protected]:/ # ls -l /storage
ls -l /storage
dr-xr-xr-x root root 1970-01-01 04:15 emulated
lrwxrwxrwx root root 1970-01-01 04:15 sdcard0 -> /storage/emulated/0
drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2015-07-03 12:50 sdcard1
drwx------ root root 1970-01-01 04:15 uicc0
drwx------ root root 1970-01-01 04:15 usbotg
Why did I not have any problems booting into fastboot, flashing TWRP-L through fastboot, booting directly into TWRP, enabling the read/write dialog option, then flashing SuperSu? TWRP survives, root worked, etc
Couldn't have been a more standard way of going about it.
Also, I had a problem with my external SD card being read only after lollipop update, but I think I fixed it by going to settings and changing default storage to external sd card and rebooting. Now both internal and external can be written to.
