Ok, so I have the icsv10 kernel... And I still can't back up ROMS.
I don't want to go through flashing stock, prerooting it, and installing a new kernel each time I want to try a new ROM!
So maybe you can help me:
When I go to recovery it says:
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
And when I format my cache it says:
-- Wiping cache...
Formatting /cache...
E: format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p13
Cache wipe complete.
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
I have ubuntu in vmware, so I can use it if needed...
I want to try a new rom, plz help...
Fastboot erase cache.
Still not working, can't restore any ROMS, have not been able to pass the stage when it says that can't work with blocks 12, 13, 14...
What's wrong with my phone?!?!?
Well, I think I had all the problems ever!!!
I solved them, so I hope this post helps...
I had my phone soft bricked for an hour. The flashtool was starting to load, and then it would say error flashing.
So I fastbooted some prerooted ics.
Then it was working but it didn't have any space in the memory, like there was no internal memory (the two giga one). So that's why I couldn't flash.
There was nowhere to flash.
I did format from recovery a million times. Didn't do anything. No errors were encountered...
It would always return to german, didn't even retain settings.
Amd when I was really despaired, I wiped the phone via the phone settings menu: backup and reset -> factory reset.
And then the two giga reappeared in storage. Yay!!!
Then I flashed the nordic, fastbooted kernel ics10.elf and then flashed the Rom (modded ics 95 in my case, don't like miui) . All works fine. I'm the best...

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.

Hi
I have searched and read through most solutions and nothing has worked. I even tried a few which corrupted my sd-card, twice.
When booting into recovery I get this response:
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
E:failed to mount /cache/recovery/command
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:failed to find "cache" partition to mount at "/cache"
Can't format cache or mount it through recovery. I haven't bothered trying to download anything from the Play Store in a while, but when I do try now I get a response saying, "Insufficient space on device."
I have tried clearing the Market cache, wiping Dalvik cache and even factory resetting the phone. NONE have worked.
I would appreciate any help at this point :/
I thank you for your time.
Flash a full ftf with flashtool

Can't say I haven't tried that :/ Did it again anyways, still no help.
Did the stock from flash OK? If it did there's nothing wrong physically what rom / kernel are you using
Sent from my Xperia Neo V using XDA
Yeah it flashed okay. I used the MT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42_Global firmware, stock kernel.
So far it's only Cyanogen that doesn't flash to the phone, and as I said, the Market that doesn't work.. and I really need to get something from there
Thanks for your replies.
I would download a new copy of the rom, reflash stock so that you know your partitions are good, boot it, flash another kernel that has recovery, check its working then try cm again.

Downloaded .62 firmware. Booted fine.
Loaded a kernel with Recovery. Still have the problem.
Even tried FXP125 CM9. Doesn't boot.
Thanks for taking the time though. Really appreciate the help
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

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
Last night, I was looking at an article I found on Facebook. I was reading the article, and my phone locked up (my phone has a tendency to freeze when I am using any web browser.) So I took out the battery like I do any other time that this happens. I put it back in after two or three seconds. I then turned it on. It is fine until the boot animation starts up. Then it will stay at the boot animation forever. I did not download anything before it happened. The phone is rooted. I have already tried wiping the cache partition and taking out the SD card. Neither worked. Would a factory reset fix the problem, and would it erase the root on my phone. By the way, when I booted in recovery and tried wiping the cache partition, I got the following.

What ROM are you using? Are you using a custom ROM or a the stock ROM?
I have a custom ROM. I am not sure what one it is, but I think it is CyanogenMod. I had a friend root it. This is the first problem I have had with it since it was rooted about a year ago.

Np I'm trying to look for a good Rom as well. I just cant find a nice and stable Rom. I'm gonna try flashing the PAC-man Rom and see how it goes. You should give that one a try too
@killer13666
A factory reset will not take away your root.
It will wipe call/text history, installed apps, etc and make it just like the 1st time you installed whatever ROM you are on.
