E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10 - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried flashing CM7 and had an issue where it would not properly flash the initial rom, the kernel flashed fine. Every time I boot the phone now I get put back into the recovery mode and the phone will not boot. Having tried a few roms all to no success I went back to using ODIN to flash back. I flashed the PIT and PDA for KB5 which worked but when the phone boots now I get the following error message:
"E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy default media content failed."
I've also tried JI6 and KB1 which all gave the same result. Flashing update.zip (which was the CM7 kernel) put me back into CWM but then I was right back to square one. If anyone has a way to fix this please let me know. If I need to flash something please link to the proper files, It seems a lot of the ODIN flashes have been removed or are outdated. I've done a decent amount of research prior to posting here, a lot of results point back to the I9000 but obviously my issue is on the Vibrant.
EDIT:
I was able to flash I9000XXJPC via Odin and it booted however this is obviously not the intended rom for the Vibrant as all the keys are messed up. I tried flashing back to KB5 using Odin but ended up at the same error as above. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT2:
Please ignore this thread I was able to resolve the issue by flashing a JFD build I found. Then applied root -> KB5 -> CM7. All is good.

Thank you!! JFD ODIN is the only one that helped me. JI6, JK2 from Eugene didn't work for some reasons.

Ji6 isn't a full rom, the *ONLY* released Odin rom that's a full rom is jfd. Jk2 is a weird one, and if.you happen to messup with that one you might end up with a perma brick as it flashes a primary and secondary bootloader.

[Q] Bad Brick?!?!!?

PLEASE HELP!! So I had loaded several ROMs (Axura's, Ginger clone, Nero v1/Beta). All seemed well till this afternoon. My phone had powered down by itself. I turned it back on and it was frozen at the boot screen. Thinking all I had to do is flash back to stock with Odin. Well being in the rush I was in I accidentally didn't uncheck the re-partition check box. I reflashed and now the phone is going into the recovery mode with an error in red.
This is the exact error I get in red:
E:Can't mount /devblock/stl10
(invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy default media content failed.
Anyone have any suggestions? Please, please, please HELP!!
The last ROM I ran was Nero v1. I tried to nandorid recover to no success.
I had the same problem earlier, instead of using the JI6 tar file use the JFD stock tar file, it solved my problem easy enough. Just use the same 512.pit file and odin v1.7 and you should be in the clear. i cant post the tar file but here is a link to where you can download it : www.justanotherdev.slackdev.com/T959UVJFD.tar and www.justanotherdev.slackdev.com/s1_odin_20100512.rar
Hope this helps.
Wow! I've been trying to find that exact JFD.tar. I also figured that may be the thing I needed to get this up and running. Thanks for the help. I'll update if it works or not.
Rock'n the G1 till I either get this solved or get another Vibrant.
ya same thing has happend to me, seems like you figured out the solutino. You need a tar file with the dbdata in it. JFD has it, but some others don't.
YES!!! Loading the stock JFD.tar worked. Talk about some stressful hours. I've been at this for 6 hours trying to get this figured out. Thanks for the help!!
I can put the G1 back in it's resting place. It was kind of wierd and neat at the some time having my G1 back in the swing of things.
Thanks again!!

Help With Odin Problem

I was running Bionix-v 1.1.2 and the DOW kernel and everything was working great. My phone then got stuck on the DOW boot up image so i used Odin to flash back to stock like I have done countless times. I am able to get the phone into download mode and I start Odin and it states All threads completed. (succeed 1/failed 0) >Removed. At witch the phone would normally boot into recovery mode and Odin would finish doing its thing but my phone will now just show the battery charging picture, go black, then the battery charging picture again until I unplug the usb. The phone will power up to the Vibrant splash screen then go black. I can get the phone into download mode but I always get the same results when I try to flash with Odin. Any help would be appreciated... Thanks.
try another .tar... you can grab some in the noob guide/alt method in my signature. Its KA2 froyo leak + root. Others are in the Deb Bible too...
k i flashed another .tar(KA2 froyo leak + root) it boots into recovery and I get the following:
E:Can't mount /dev/blocked/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD:

I got the same error when running some test kernels. Try flashing JFD also flash the 512.pit file and check repartition in Odin . If that doesn't work flash Eugenes froyo that doesn't brick .
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
I downloaded a new copy of JFD and 512.pit checked repartition. Still was not able to get into recovery after Odin even with the new copy. Eugenes froyo that doesn't brick gave me the same can't mount error message.
Having the same issues.....JFD simply won't boot, Eugene's Froyo that wont brick makes it through the boot animations and then locks with the touch buttons lit up, Eugene's JK2+2E boots fine, but has this problem (internal and external storage show up as unavailable). I'm pretty sure it's related to using ODIN with Voodoo enabled and I've been going crazy all day trying to find a fix, but to no avail so far. ANY help would be incredibly appreciated!!
Try older odin programs. Yes u read that right.

Drewdude, since we're having the same problems, we should confer about it through some IM system in a little bit... two heads are better than one, right?
Well I have also tried Heimdall as well... no success with Heimdall either. So my final solution to the problem is I called T-Mobile and told them my phone would not turn on. My new Vibrant will be here in 3 days at no charge.
OP,
I just experienced the SAME Exact problem. THE VERY SAME.
Something tells me it's the DOW kernel.
W.T.F.
I've tried all the ODIN files that are available.
In each one, I get Vibrant, then it goes blank and turns off. Nothing else.
My phone is fried.
More likely than not, youre not fried, just soft-bricked same as me. Can you get your phone into download mode? Hold vol + and vol - while inserting your micro-sd cable...it should go to a picture of a yellow android with a shovel. If you can get to this mode, your phone is NOT fried.
THat's the only mode I can get into bud.
I've tried to load JI5 Ji6, Eugene's nonbrickin g Froyo.
None of the roms get past the vibrant screen.
THey just shut off.
Well I have been working on it for a day straight and no luck. I have talked to several people and the phone has readonly partition now so it is ****ed! Nand death!
Try these step from oka1 . He say to flash Eugenes froyo without repartition checked then pull the battery when tries to boots . Then flash JFD with repartition checked.
Probably you will need a couple of things in your tool kit.
You will need Odin 1.3 or higher
Pit file (there are 512 and 831) Guessing you will need the 512pit
Original JFD stock file 2.1
Eugenes froyo that does not brick
Remove the sim and the sd card, remove the battery have Odin up on the computer> then hold down the 3 buttons and plug in the phone to the usb connected to computer. If this works and Odin sees the phone (does not matter if it says com5 or 6 etc.) then you can go from there, If not then you will need a jig, people here sell them, i saw connextion2005 sells them but there are others (like 8bucks) or you could make it is 301k resistors tied to one 2 pins of the usb (do a search if you are interested).
Then the sequence for the fix is to flash the Froyo first that does not brick (do not check repartition) once it begins to reboot pull the battery out (does not need to reboot) then flash the JFD on top and this time check the repartition
Let this finish reboot> then use super one click root or other of your choice. Then download CWM and Titanium backup...... flash your new rom and you are back in business.[/QOUTE]

So is mine.
Somebody in the DOW thread said to use ODIN to flash the original Bionix Kernel only.
I don't see how that's helpful now since I've already flashed all the other 2.1 Tmobile roms.
This is F(ked.
unless somebody knows how I can flash a bionix rom using ODIN? I might be able to get that Bionix V stock kernel on there too.

Samsung Vibrant bricked?

Hi I have a samsung vibrant that was running bionix v and it suddenly bricked itself. So i decided to use odin as I have in the past but this time when I get into download mode, it says key pressed, 164 on the top. I then use odin and it flashes successfully but once it reboots it stays on the vibrant screen for about 5-10 seconds and then it shuts itself off. I think its because im using an ld version of odin, which is odin 3 v1.7. I really need help please
Where you using a stock kernel?
Sent from my MB200 using Tapatalk
I am having this same exact exact problem.
I am soo pissed. I have been running fine with Bionix, then day 2 after installing DOW kernel, my internal memory card is fried.
I mean absolutely FRIED.
I can't get past boost screen *(It shuts off like yours does too)
I can't ODIN with anything, because it shuts off. If I try to plug it in, it will just battery charge loop.
I'm at a loss here too.
I've installed Eugene's OC kernel, TTbal's OC kernel, and the old DOW OC kernel's fine. Everything has been great. My phone handled 1.4 like a champ.
But now, nothing works. NOTHING.
*sigh
I also installed dow kernal and then a few days after that it just suddenly decided to shut itself off

If it turns on its NOT bricked....this term is soooo loosely used.
odin back,reflash and allow 10-15 minutes to set up after full boot

If it turns on then it is not bricked, although it can be frustrating to fix it.
I will suggest following
1) Start ODIN and get Vibrant in download mode
2) ODIN Eugene's Froyo-that-does-NOT-brick. Do not check re-partition in ODIN. Do not use PIT512 file to re-partition
3) Reboot
4) Start ODIN again and get your Vibrant in Download mode again
5) ODIN PIT512 file and UVJFD stock, make sure you check repartition in ODIN this time.
6) Reboot
7) Re-root and install ROM Manager from Market
8) CWR flash or ODIN whichever version of ROM you like.
I hope this help.
You're probably in luck because the phone still turns on. In the future try to be real specific about what you were doing leading up to the bricking, things usually don't suddenly brick themselves. Follow ssiddiqi1's instructions and you should be fine.

Version of ODIN does not matter, I agree. But if phone turns on, it is not bricked. Probably partition is messed up. Eugene no brick froyo (without a PIT file and no repartition) should get the phone to boot into a buggy vibrant 1900 version, then ODIN with PIT512 and repartition should get you back into bootable phone with fixed partition.
As I said it is frustrating but it is fixable. I had exact same scenario with Eugene Dead Horse kernel. The steps I wrote in my other posting, fixed the problem.
EDIT: You do not need Recovery mode. Recovery is not going to do any good due to messed up partition. You need only Download mode for ODIN to ODIN no-brick-froyo then UVJFD.

So I just tried it again to be sure. I flashed Eugene's no brick Froyo with no .pit and re-partition NOT checket. I then flashed JFD with the 512.pit and checked re-partition. I get the same results... Odin flashes and says completed at which point it should boot into recovery and finnish doing its thing. However all the phones with this problem fail to boot into recovery and just keep showing the battery charging, turn off, and show the battery charging picture over and over until I unplug the usb. At which point I press the power button and it boots up to the Vibrant splash screen the shuts off. This happens every time.

Why should it boot into recovery after you ODIN JFD and repartition. It should reboot normal. Are you sure, you have a good UVJFD.tar file? A while ago, UVJFD odining messed up my phone. It was bad UVJFD.tar file. I would recommend go to Teamwhisky web site at http://www.teamwhiskey.com and look for Shorty's File Locker. I used UVJFD, PIT and ODIN from Shorty last week and it worked. Here is a direct link to it http://board.teamwhiskey.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1322
Also successful Odining of Eugene's no-brick-froyo should boot you into a normal boot with a few errors, no Recovery. If needed, I can upload my copy of Euegen's no-brick-froyo, which had always helped me.
The ONLY .tar file that would flash and boot up the phone is the JK2 .tar found in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=799105
However, after flashing it I get the this error message and the phone does not access to the internal or external memory card.
E:Can't mount /dev/blocked/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD:

After Odin the phone will not boot up at all. I have downloaded the .pit and .tar files from Team Whiskey's site and i get the same thing.

I think, you are not getting your Internal SD card partitioned properly, therefore mounting issue. Maybe download again pit512 file from Shorty's File locker? Sometime during download files get corrupted. Its worth downloading it again. Also in ODIN check options Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time. Do not check Flash Lock, Do not check Phone EFS Clear and Phone Bootloader.
I had been using ODIN3 v1.81. Karylon360 posted it on XDA a few days ago. YOu should find it in Vibrant Dev Section.

There are files on the data side of JDF that is needed to boot if you wiped everything ... so if you got JK2 to boot to this error then ODIN to JDF and you should be good ....
No matter what when I Odin JFD, and I have downloaded and re-downloaded the .pit and .tar files from from Team Whiskey's site as well as others, I get the same results and the phone won't boot.

[Q] Help - CM7 to Stock, can't mount dev block mmcblk0p1, what now?

I installed CM7 Earlier today, which was giving me issues with the SD Card. So I decided I'd go back to stock. I followed the instructions here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124391 (Using DL09)
After flashing and rebooting the phone was in the stock recovery screen with the error: "can't mount dev block mmcblk0p1 (Invalid Argument)"
I can get the phone into Download Mode. I tried re-flashing DL09 but ODIN pretty immediately said "FAIL".
Where do I go from here? I am looking at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1026746 but since Odin doesn't seem to be letting me flash anything I'm not sure what to do.
I think my SD card needs to be reformatted but Im not sure what the best way to accomplish that is. Any help would be hugely appreciated. Sorry for being a noob.

Try reinstalling the drivers and then try again. If odin still say "fail", redownload the files you are using because you may have gotten a corrupted download that is causing the "fail" in odin. But try the driver suggestion first.
I would download Odin, Stock ED05, and the atlas 2.2 PIT file. Once you have all of those, get your phone into download mode, put the battery back into the phone, uncheck F. Reset Time and check Re-partition. Make sure your phone is showing up, put the ED05 tar.md5 file in the PDA box, the atlas pit file in the PIT box, and flash.

I can only get the following to run on my phone, EC10SC292x_DXC.tar.md5 from Droid Forums (Super Clean version 2.9.2 - EB01/EC10 Froyo leak root+Froyo Clockworkmod with MALWARE protection).
This runs great except for the 0.00 memory and unable to mount SD card errors in CWM recovery.
I have tried everything out there with no luck to include flashing back to stock using the threads on this site and others and Odin gets stuck at the movinand file install and fails. Everything except the thread How to completely remove Voodoo Lagfix over.
The link for the orginal.mbr is broken and I can't find the file anywhere.
Does anyone have the original.mbr file they could post for download.
Odin back to stock ED05 using the pit file and repartition. If that isn't enough Odin back to DI01 using the pit to repartition.

Trying now, waiting for download. The thread for Installing ROM/CWM recovery, root, go back to stock oh this site say no need to flash the Pit file sine ED05 already has it. Should I flash it anyway?

Try it without first, and if that doesn't fix it try it with. Just make sure you have Repartition checked.

Tried both ways with ED05 and DI01 with no luck each time I flash Odin gets stuck on the movinand file install and fails.
Any other suggestions?

Are you using Odin with the battery pulled? Sometimes that helps. Basically hold the volume down button when plugging in the USB cable and it will still use the download mode. If that doesn't help maybe the download is corrupt so try redownloading.

Yes, Odin with battery out. at least fourth time re-downloading all the stock files. It seem that the only files that make it through Odin are then custom ROMs. All of the stock downloads fail at the movinand install point.
Have you tried a different USB cable? Also what version of ODIN are you using? The most reliable one I've used is 1.3.

Yes on the usb cable, 4 to be exact and odin 1.3 and 1.7. 1.3 has been the most stable.
I think i have tried everything across the board and like I said the only files that make it through Odin and pass have been the custom roms, anything that say stock locks up in Odin.
I would try the full GeeWiz Rom then with the pit file with Repartition checked. I'm not sure if it contains the movinand.bin file or not. If not then try GeeWiz with just the Rom & Kernel; that doesn't wipe data.
Also have you tried wiping the SDCard in either CWM or GeeWiz recovery?
If that doesn't help, I'm out of suggestions, and unfortunately I don't have the mbr file so I'm no help there.

First try locked up on the movinand file. downloading the other and will try.
Thanks again for the help.
I had a similar problem. Im not an expert but Re-installing the usb drivers and giving odin a few more tries solved everything for me.
Thanks, seven days of this and I have done each of these more times than I count. Anything with a movinand file locks up.
Wife wants to buy me an Iphone but I am resisting because I really like to the android system and versatility. Will out as long as i can fix this issue.
The only other thing I can think of is taking the sdcard out and trying to put it in a card reader and format it there. Either that or moving it to a different phone and trying to reformat it.

Try re-flashing Clockwork Recovery in Odin, or even a different copy from Times_Infinity's thread. Perhaps then it will recognize your sd card.
Terminators run on Android
Try flashing Eh03 stock with odin with out pit or repartition.
Just try the image

Tried eh03 stock and multiple cwm and still no go. Still have 0.00 internal memory and no sdcard access in cwm.
I'm out of ideas at this point, any help is greatly appreciated.
Does anyone know where to find the original.mbr file for the fascinate?
