Hello everyone.
I was trying to ODIN my Vibrant back to stock JFD (not my first time... plenty of success in the past) from the ICS Passion rom....
After the flash, i get the following message:
update media, please wait
E: Can't mount /dev/block/st110 (invalid argument)
E: copy_dbdata_media: Can't mount DBDATA:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
copy default media content failed.

Click to collapse
PLEASE HELP!!
I've did quite a bit of searching around the web, as well as on XDA. I've tried reflashing, using different USB ports, restarting... all the lot.
suggestions or an I looking at a perma-brick?
I can access recovery and download mode with the button combinations.
TIA!!
Nevermind...
Fixed.
did a clear cache, clear all user data, format internal SD card
then flashed with a freshly downloaded JFD tar and pit file.

I tried to flash the voodoo lag fix and I'm assuming I did something wrong because it booted up and then I rebooted and all I get is "E:cant mount /dev/block/stl10"
and " E:copy_dbdata_media:cant mount DBDATA: copy default media content failed"
I've tried flashing and Re-flashing everything I can think of, I even tried going to Eugenes 2.2 and back but no luck. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Soooooooo ... here's what happened.
I was trying to condense my internal and external sdcards from my computer. Once i backed everything up, I formatted one of the drives through windows. Problem is, it COMPLETELY formatted it, including the partition for app data. The phone booted, but with 0Mb for apps, and would freeze up and give me the black screen with lit buttons.
Then I go into DL mode, flash the stock firmware and during the reboot, it gets stuck in recovery with this error:
-- Movi_check Start...!!
checksum confirmation need check_sum[1301305579]
MBR_ChkSum in header : 5.0
MBR checksum : E9A2186CA7912EE54F5EFCB478D44960
MBR Checksum Error
Movinand Checksum Confirmation Fail
lfs pass open fail
--movi_checking undone!...
update media. please wait
E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E: copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
copy default media content failed
I can Get into clockwork, but it won't flash bionix1.7, I get a line 81 error. I can't mount the sd while in recovery any more. I can't get into DL mode again. whenever I try to reboot, it throws me into recovery with that error ... I'm completely lost right now and any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

try booting in dl mode from your pc. Install the android SDK and USB drivers for samsung. The SDK can be found by googling and search the forum for the USB drivers. They in the command line type "<PathToSDK>\tools\adb.exe reboot download. That should get you into download mode. Then flash the stock image and make sure the "Re-Partition" is checked.
I think this should work.

tried that, it didn't work either. It still takes me into recovery even though i put adb reboot download. I think I'm just going to have Asurion replace it again
Boot into Clockwork recovery and post the results of:
adb shell mount

Once i go into clockwork, my computer no longer recognizes clockwork.
Idk if its the same thing, but here's what it says outside of clockwork
I would try and reformat your partitions through clockwork. I dont know if you might of reformated the partions NTFS or what.

Looks like this at least let me get into dl mode ... flashing stock now, we'll see what happens
Good to hear. I bet when you reformated in windows, it formated the internal sdcard as NTFS which Android cant read.
Just to put it out there if you press the menu button from recovery i believe its the same as DL mode .
got it!
First off, thanks for all the tips guys.
I had to flash Eugene's Froyo that doesnt brick with re-partition checked (no other rom would work) which brought me back, and then i downgraded from there.
Just in case anybody else gets that!
did it get rid of the mbr checksum error? I still have it but can flash whatever.
Hi all
I was being foolish. was using the worng PIT file and trying to go straight to JI6. What fixed it was - using the right PIT and the JFD.tar for the PDA.
Mods - if this thread needs to be deleted, please do so.
Thanks.
Hi all
I think I am into some big trouble with my vibrant. I had Bionix-v installed and was very happy, then I messed around with Dragon kernel 2.8, then Dragon kernel 3.1.2, followed by DOW 14.
wanted to get back to bionix-v after a fresh install, so decided to ODIN back to stock. Then ran into trouble with ODIN - wont assign a com. Unistalled the samsung drivers and reinstalled, did not work. Tried a different laptop and it worked eventually.
ODINed back to JI6, (Re-partition was selected by default and I managed to overlook it ) but then got error:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110(File exists)
Error mounting /datadata/!
Skipping format...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110(File exists)
Can't mount /datadata/!
Tried to do restore from an image on my internal sd through clockword mod recovery: again got the same error.
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110(File exists)
Error mounting /datadata/!
Skipping format...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/st110(File exists)
Can't mount /datadata/!
Looked on web - "eugene's froyo that does not brick"
http://eb-productions.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=samsungsgs&action=display&thread=8
I have not used sdk or adb before and am not confident either.
Sorry for making it such a long post but I wanted to make sure that I give all the details.
Can someone advise me further?
Freaking out in NYC.
Menn, I'v got the same problem.
Can anybody help please??
try repartition with another .pit-file. Solved the problem for me.
Odin back to jfd
It all started today when I rooted my stock 2.2 and installed Voodoo.
After I installed Voodoo, my phone wouldn't boot. So I Odin'ed a stock ROM.
The Problem is, I have no internal/external storage on the phone at all!
I've tried flashing milliions of times, but no dice. Anyone know how to fix this?
EDIT:
There was a time where it showed my internal storage and I used the File manager to go in and erase the Voodoo folder and stuff. But still nothing. And everytime I check the "Re-partition" option in Odin, I get an says that Data wipe failed. I'm really stuck here guys!
EDIT2:
Now it says:
"update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbate_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions"
If I selsect "format internal sd-card" I get the same error.
boot into recovery, clear cache, do a reset and then clear dalvik the reflash 2.1JFD make sure to check repartition box, after it is done then root and then flash a custom rom of your choice

If I'm not mistaken, CWM is the only one with that option. I don't have CWM installed.
AWESOME!
Seems to have worked... I got all my storage space back.
Only problem I have is, low application storage.
Tried to go from CM7 #11 to Simply Honey 3.5 Revolution, but when that didn't work, I ended up Odin-flashing stock KB1... and now I get this when booting:
Android system recovery <3e>
System Recovery Utils
- for BML -
reboot system now
reinstall packages
delete all user data
delete cache\
format internal sd-card
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount dev/block/stl10

E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:

Got the same error message when attempting to format the internal sd-card, and more importantly, when putting the device into download mode, it's no longer detected by Odin...
EDIT: Fixed! At least in the sense that I was able to flash back to stock JFD, by choosing the 512 PIT instead of the 803 PIT, and by physically disconnecting/reconnecting the micro USB cable while Odin was open. Whew! A frightening lesson, but it's reinforced the importance of flashing back to stock before switching ROMs.
EDIT #2: On the other hand, when I root JFD, then install ROM Manager from the Market, then flash CWM 2.5.1.2, reboot into CWM recovery through ROM Manager (instead of 3-button), then try to flash a ROM, it seems to hang/freeze at "finding update package"... but rebooting into recovery by 3-button fixed this, thankfully.
glad you got it resolved, but next time, remember to review/look over standard procedures in the noob bible. Your problems were because of your actions....... operator error...........
