BIG SGS2 problem :( - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tied flashing back my stock rom (GT-I9100_NEE_I9100XWKI4_I9100OXXKI2_I9100XXKI1) through odin, but when my phone restarts it goes straight to Android system recovery and a lot of errors come up with red writing saying...
E:failed to mount /efs (no such file of directory)
E:failed to mound /cache (no such file or directory)
E:can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I tried to wipe data/factory reset and it says
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
Please help as i am a real noob at this
I understand i should have read through the forum properly but eagerness took over me

ok so here i am not knowing what to do i need help im not the best in these things can someone clearly point me to a solution or help plz
You need to flash a better recover than the stock recover, which you will likely need to flash with Odin. I'd try the Vibrant board to see if someone there could be of more assistance, but that's basically what you're looking at, as far as I recall from my TMO Vibrant.
Ok here are the updates of the problem, i did the a complete wipe of the phone then flashed the ice cream sandwich from passion from the phone and i loaded now where it bugs is there is no mobile network so im kinda stuck it detect telus under access point but in network operator it find nothing any idea guys?
You need to go back to eh03 via odin. Then flash as usual through cwm. It happened to me before. Without odin you wont get out of this.

[Q] Korean Galaxy Player 5.0 Stuck in Boot Loop!!

Hello,
I own a Korean galaxy player 5.0 (16GB) YP-GB70. I previously had a custom rom flashed onto it. But I tried flashing a new rom by following the directions, that is revert back to a stock rom and flash the new rom. But after I flashed the new rom, the device was stuck in boot loop. The recovery and the download screens work however. I tried flashing a stock rom again but it was again stuck in a boot loop. I tried flashing many other roms but none of them worked.
In recovery mode it keeps showing this
-- Appling Multi-CSC...
Successfully applied multi-CSC.
E:failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)
E:Can't moundt /cache/recovery/recovery_kernel_log
E:copy_kernel_file :: Can't open /cache/recovery/recovery_kernel_log

E:failed to mount /cache (no such file or directory)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)
I tried wipe date/factory reset and wipe cache partition but neither helped.
Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance!
hello
what FW did you flash last?
Did you touch at the PIT?
Do you use odin or other tool?
did you wipe "before" flashing? (can be different.)
IF ok you have to check if your memory partitioning has not been modified by a tricky kernel. (adb tools)
courage
Have you checked this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457730
Since your model is a Korean (YP-GB70) the hardware is different from the International (YP-G70).
It appears you know how to flash ROMs via Odin so you will need only a original Froyo or Gingerbread firmware with the file dbdata.rfs and a .pit file to use the re-partition and make your playea as new...

HELP! Cant Flash New Roms! Phone Wont Boot Past HTC Splash Screen

Hey all,
So the other day I went through my SD card and erased about 11GB of stuff I thought that I didnt need. Didnt run into any issues.... until this morning.
I attempted to flash a ROM this morning and halfway through I get this message:
-Formatting NAND with ext4 Alignment...
Installing system files...
E: Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(Status 0)
And then goes back to the install zip menu.
When I try to do a NAND backup I get this error:
E: Failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Cant mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Cant mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Cant open /cache/recovery/log
E: Failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Cant mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Cant open /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
Ive tried wiping my caches, as well as doing factory resets. When I reset my phone it just sits on the HTC splash screen.
So its obvious to me that I foolishly deleted a folder that I need in order to flash new ROMs properly as well as restore previous partitions.
I am S-Off of course

Anyone have any tips or workarounds for me that dont involve having to install Linux on my PC?
Try 4ext custom recovery.

Yeah, I actually ended up just using my upgrade last night and got a Samsung Galaxy S III. Guess I should make those forums my new home lol. Thanks for attempting to help though Coal!

[Q] [HELP] (Desperate) soft bricked INTL GT-I9300 after encryption error with CM 11

UPDATE: After five days, I'm sending my phone to service centre. Tomorrow, they will tell me what's the status of the device. I'll keep you posted and again, thanks to all who replied this post.
Hello everyone,
Yesterday my GT-i9300 with CM 11 was bricked after giving an encryption error. Now it stays in Samsung Galaxy logo screen.
After rebooting in recovery mode (CWM 6.0.4.6) it reads:
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
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install​
I tried to wipe data/factory reset with no luck. Here's the message:
-- Wiping data. . .
Formatting /data
Error mounting /data!
Skipping format...
Formatting /cache...
E: format_volume: make_extf4fs faild on /dev/block/mmcblk0p8
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
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install
Formatting /sd-ext
E: Unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
Formatting /sdcard/.android-secure...
Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!
Skipping Format . . .
Data Wipe Complete.​
Thus, I get an error when mounting /efs /system /cache and /preload /data and as a consequence, I cannot format any of the partitions.
Finally, I thought connecting through Odin and getting back to stock rom firmware was the solution, but everytime I try this, I receive an NAND WRITE START FAIL error.
I'm guessing I'll have to use a .PIT file to repartiion but it is impossible since ODIN can't even start a WRITE on NAND. I tried use adb shell instead and repartition with heimdall with no luck.
Please help. Everyone knows what does it feel to see your phone like that. This situation is really stressing :'(
Thanks in advanced.
PS: My phone has no longer warranty coverage
Sounds like nand memory failure, if the rescue firmware from general forum doesn't work then you'll need a new motherboard.

Yes I also thought that. I believe there has something in relation to having the phone encrypted (Actually, CM11 encrypted the filesystem). Doing some reading, I came in to this link that might help -> https://gist.github.com/L-P/7285035#3-obtain-the-partition-number-for-userdata. The problem is that right now, adb shell cannot grant me root permissions (strangely, yesterday was working fine).
Thanks

I think my tablet is bricked. HELP!

I had everything successfully running with Katkiss 5.1.1 and i was going to sell the tablet and I decided to wipe it and that's when everything went to hell. From there I wasn't able to boot into recovery. I was only able to get to the bootloader. So now I tried to format everything and I keep receiving the following:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
--Wiping data
Formatting /data...
Error mounting /data!
Skipping Format
Formatting /cache
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block.mmcblk0p2
E:format_volume:make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
I've gotten others but this is the most prevalent. I keep trying to search forums but I'm stuck in a rut. I'm able to access fastboot adb but nothing is ever sticking. I have some knowledge but I'm not proficient. If someone can walk me through this, I will be grateful. Thanks in advance.
