[q] emmc problem (yp-g70 intl 8gb) [FIXED] - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

Hey guys, i just want to ask if it's possible to fix emmc corrupt in yp-g70? okay, so i took it to a technician because it is hardbricked, he was able to fix it however the problem is, he said that the emmc is corrupt and the its status now is "bootlooping" he resurrected the device but it's stuck in bootloop because emmc is corrupt, and he said there is no solution unless the emmc is replaced. so, is there any possible way to fix this? or roms that can fix the bootloop? any reply would be much appreciated.

any advice?

Have you tried to flash the stock ROM?

The device itself is still at the technician, he just updated me the status of my device, i'll try to flash the stock rom if it fixes the emmc problem. by the way, thanks for the reply sir!

It may need a little more than that. If that doesn't work, try this:
Boot to cwm
Wipe data
Wipe system
Wipe cache, and dalvik
Boot into download mode
Reflash stock

If he means that there are bad blocks on the emmc, then he is right; your device will not be usable unless the board is replaced. The only other possible way to work around that would to be moving partitions around with fdisk, but there would still be unusable space on the storage chip.

OK, sir, but, if flash it with odin, with the stock rom and PIT files, and check re-partition, would it be able to fix the issue? or it's still unusable?
just askin' .
i still don't have my device, it's still in him (technician).

How'd this happen anyway?

If there are bad blocks, it means that the chip hardware itself is burnt out, so writing to it will not fix it.

OK, so before my device was hardbricked. i was trying to install the PACMAN ROM, by the way, i was on CHIP ROM that time, i followed the procedure,unfortunately the installation was aborted. After so much frustration i deleted the "/emmc", i thought that would fix it, but because of my stupidity, i admit that. all of my files in internal was wiped out and it cannot mount the internal itself. so i flashed a rom using odin. However, with the blessing of Bad Luck Brian, odin got freezed, so i eject my device from my computer and then turned it off, after that it wont boot anymore. so, now, i decided to bring it to a technician to be repaired using JTAG because i dont have the proper resources to do the resurrection.
OK, so he [technician] said that he was able to resurrect it but somehow, it is bootlooping, because the emmc is corrupt.
and now i already have my device, i will try to do "fdisk" as what Sir Mervodel suggested to partition my internal.

OK, sir. but i will try the method of using "fdisk" that you suggested lately. i hope that'll fix it.

It's already fixed!
Hey guys, it's already fixed, maybe the technician misunderstood the problem, all i did was to boot into recovery and wipe cache then factory reset. it's already fixed now,
Anyway, thanks for all your response!

Stuck at boot animation + more info inside

Hello, so I ran out of battery on my way home, when I got home I plugged the phone and went to sleep. Today when I woke up, I turned on the device, but it got stuck @ galaxy s3 boot animation, the animation you get before your ROM's boot animation kicks in, so I went to recovery and tried to recover one of my recoveries. it didn't help. I did a factory reset, it still was the same, stuck on galaxys3 boot animation. So I decided to flash stock samsung rom using ODIN. But now I'm stuck at the samsungs stock ROM boot animation, I tried factory reset couple of times but it didn't help.
Any idea what might be the issue, I have flashed this rom
Edit: Also the line "E: failed to mount /efs" is something to worry about when you boot into recovery?
So flashing via Odin works w/o errors?

Yeah, when i flashed using odin, I didn't encounter any error, more one thing to mention, when I boot to recover I get
E: failed to mount /efs
Is that something to have concern about?
oh yes. do you have an efs backup? that's the first thing you should do before flashing anything. if yes, restore it. if not, send it to service

Yes you will find that the vendor or Samsung refuse warranty .
Your option is to fight that as not relevant to your problem .

You are kidding me, so basically if I didn't root my device, vendor/samsung wouldn't had a choice but to replace my device, but because of I did root my device, vendor/samsung will refuse to replace my device, am I correct?
Is there any other way to unbrick my device?

you are correct, in the EU you still can get lucky due to some regulations and you have to show that the root did not cause the problem, outside the EU I am not sure. The restriction of the internals of every device is not for nothing in place don't you think so? Otherwise manufacturers would get hundreds of complains because someone messed up something...

Hey, I just came back from my vendor, they say they can't fix it. Can I some how restore EFS? I have the Phones IMIE/S/N written, on the back of the phone, can I make a new efs folder/files? using this DATA?
Thank you!
EDIT: If I'll have to ship to samsung, do I have to talk with them first? or just find their ARMA address and ship there?

If you do not have an EFS backup I guess it will be difficult to restore. Only solution then will be to send it in for service if I am not wrong.

You are correct, it would be difficult to restore, or there is another option, make my cellphone not boot at all, so the vendor won't be able to check flash counter.. in that case the vendor won't have a choice but to replace the device.. got any suggestion how to brick your device so it won't boot at all? disconnect the cable while flashing?

that would be warranty fraud , hence I don't think you will get an answer here.

What to do when you are internally and externally corrupted??

Hi Everyone
One of the senior contributors on here has been helping me via pm but I don’t want to keep bothering him and it would probably help to open up this issue anyway.
In essence, I’ve been unable to flash a variety of ROMS suggested by my friend on my 5380i (CM7, Extremesis etc).
Although the ROMs themselves are fine (checked MD5 etc), they have been mainly failing with abort message status 7. I finally got the Extremesis to install properly but then the phone got stuck at the first Samsung Galaxy screen.
I’ve had no probs restoring to stock with Odin but then keep repeating the problem when I try to flash.
Throughout the recovery process I’ve noticed various error messages when trying to wipe data, format system etc. One is when attempting wipe data from CWM. I get E format _volume rfs format failed on /dev / Stl.11 and similar with wipe cache but Stl.10 instead.
I’ve done some research and understand that this could be due to a corrupted internal card. Can anyone confirm this with a possible solution for my model?
II also get another one when wiping the dalvik cache in CWM. It says "Unknown volume for path sd-ext" I guess that must be linked to external sd. I've reformatted this many times so don't know what else that could relate to.
Either way it seems that I am “corrupted” internally as well as externally.
I’d really be delighted to hear from anyone who ever got any ROM to work on this damn model.
Many thanks Simon
Flash multiformater and there select rfs and then clear data and cache and then mount system and flash extremiss rom or any stock based custom roms..if u want to flash cm roms then u have to also flash cm7 kernel and and make system to ext4 thru multiformater and then flash any cm7 rom

Hi again
Think I've tried most of those things without success. I'll try the multiformatter as suggested then see how I go.
Not at all optimistic as been here before many times!

Tried Extremesis again but phone still freezes on Samsung Galaxy opening screen!!
This is what I did:
1. Used multiformatter to set RFS and clear data and cache.
2. Used CWM to wipe data/factory reset.
3. Used CWM to wipe cache.
4. Wipe dalvik cache.
5. Mount system.
6. Format data, system and cache.
7. Installed Extremesis from zip.
I haven't tried CM7 as that involves the extra steps of cm kernel and mutiformatter to set to ext 4.
During this process I did note two error messages. First when wiping dalvik cache-unknown volume for path sd-ext and then when booting into CWM-Can't mount cache /recovery /latest log
Really confused and frustrated now.

How about, use odin and flash stock rom. Use all 5 files (pit file, pda, modem, csc boot)
After restars phone into recovery. Format system, data and cache. Mount everything, flash rom(redownload it just incase).
Stop complaining, theyre are over 100 android forums which you can ask for help, and this phone is just under 4 years old, every single problem has been encountered from atleast one of us, so it is somewhere in this forum, so look harder. Nobody gives a sh*t about this phone anymore and rightfully so.

I'm sure nobody gives a sh***t, aside from my good lady wife, who kindly bought it for me. I know it's ancient history, but doyouknowot? it's still being sold in stores so has a certain currency, so to speak.
I know there are millions of android forums and I've spent the best part of two weeks combing thru them!!!!
I've also been liaising with my Indian friend who hasn't been able to assist, despite being more affable and articulate than you (not difficult!).
I don't really have a problem restoring with Odin. The errors and freezes occur when trying to install Extremesis and CM7, 9, 10,11...............
Having said that, there may be an issue as I'm only using PDA the version of Odin I've been using, and although that gets me back to stock it may contribute to the subsequent errors when trying to install the ROM. I'll try the multiple files when restoring to stock but not confident.
I think you need to go back to your comics son.

Recovery mode is just a black screen...

I wish I knew exactly what caused this to happen. I was using a Malaysk ROM and starting having the issues. I thought maybe it was the ROM so I downgraded back to the original ROM that came with my unit and I'm still having the same issues. I downgraded through system updates in settings.
I can get it to boot into recovery, but it's just a black screen with pulsating light blue lights on the side of my unit. I have a Joying RK3188 1024x600 with the touch buttons on the left side.
Also when the unit boots up I don't get the Android splash screen anymore, it's also black. The first sign of life is when the car logo screen pops up.
There have also been multiple cases where when I am using the unit the screen has turned black ( if the radio is playing it will continue to play though ) and I can't do anything on the screen. This has to be a related issue.
Does anyone have any idea whats going on here?
I appreciate any help I can get!

Try reflashing both MCU and ROM.
Use USB method for recovery of brick unit.
Or try reflashing from GPS card by mimicking procedure as it should be done on screen working even if you don't see it (look for screenshots of recovery and try to perform needed actions - somewhere here was such hint for someone whose screen brightness was completely darked out and has to perform factory reset from recovery on the blind).

Putting the stock MCU and ROM on the GPS card fixed it! I did the update from the settings menu and it worked! I have recovery again! Thank you so much for the help!

I had bad experience with MCU v2.83
After some time it started to make touch screen not working, factory settings pass not recognising standard 126 etc.
After restart - all normal. Then for no reasons next day problems rrapear...
Reverting to stock v2.80 resolves issue. And Nalaysk ROM works with no prob.
So, if you upgraded MCU - that may be a reason.
If not, then maybe your ROM file was corrupted. Or your internal memory got corrupted somehow.
My prob with newer MCU, not working on cold morning first start but working after reset, points out that there is some HW related issue. With new version only though! Figure it out...

I never updated the MCU so I'm really not sure what happened.
I'm actually don't mind using the stock ROM minus the fact I've already ran out of storage, is there anything I can do about that? So many things are working better for me now. Before I wasn't able to get an OBDII adapter to connect to torque and now it works perfect.
I'd love to go back to the Malaysk ROM but I just had so many issues...
Use link2sd to store your apps on an external sd card.

There is also another ROM, look for thread named Interesting ROM with FUSE support.
It is almost stock but with FUSE partitioning so you have all space for both sys app and data.
BTW your prob with OBD2 is known issue in Malaysk ROM if you enabled xposed BT module.

You need to root your head unit. Use the root code from the wiki. Then install super su and give permissions to link2sd. Remember to properly partition sd card ss well

Putting the stock MCU and ROM on the GPS card fixed it! I did the update from the settings menu and it worked! I have recovery again! Thank you so much for the help!
I really want to install the custom ROM again, but I really don't want to keep having this issue though. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this to happen?

How did you doing this, did you do this from the system update menu? I have same problem but if I try your way, I only get a black screen.

Thank you for your support. My problem was that my recovery image was damaged. I fixed it by reflashing the recovery image.
thx
I have the same problem now. I just went into recovery mode and installed update_4_4_4_FUSE_1024X600_RK3188_17_MAL_23_04_2016.
All was well until the Android loader image just sat there pulsing. The unit still had not started up after 40 mins of this logo being on screen.
Going into recovery mode just shows a black screen now. So my unit is effectively dead, or can it be rescued?

Is it possible to start your device normal?
No. It just sits at the bootloader.

Try in recovery mode to enter back in normal boot mode. It's difficult to explain in englisch. I had to pin a small needle into my radio and ca. 0,5 seconds before the LED are flashing, stop with pushing. When you stop pushing you must wait 5-10 second and see if you device boot up normal.
You have to try this often to find the correct moment. Thats how I entered back to normal boot mode.

S6 Edge Keeps on Restarting/Crashing

A good day to all!
I have had an issue with my S6 edge (SM-G925F, Philippines Globe Carrier Version) for months now wherein it keeps restarting/crashing. The problem persists so randomly, sometimes multiple times a day or sometimes a day or two without it. I've already tried everything I could find in the internet, such as; deleting the cache in recovery, factory wiping the phone, and flashing the newest firmware i found for it on sammobile. Noting seemed to work. This is my last attempt in fixing the phone before I give up. I hope someone can give me good advice about this.
So nobody knows how to fix this? I don't care if it's a hardware problem i just wanna know
yh man,same problem...i cant even boot to the system..is your led flashing blue?

Is the phone currently working?
It sounds like it could be the hardware failing, could be the emmc failing.
The only thing to suggest at this point is to wipe data/cache in recovery and flash a new firmware.
Or try a custom ROM. If it happens on the custom ROM also then it's possibly hardware.

Mine can actually boot to the system but it always crashes after some time of use.

That's EXACTLY what i was thinking although i did not know that was the name of the part. I was just thinking the memory module was maybe defective already. Dang it so the logic board should be replaced right? Because as far as I know the memory is soldered to the board and hard to remove by itself let alone replacing it.
I've already tried the wiping of data/cache and flashed the newest firmware using Odin but the problem still persists.
Also tried the custom ROM and I've tried a lot of them non actually boots to the system. Only flashing the official firmware allows me to boot to the system.
Thank you for the reply I will now just give up on this and just buy a OnePlus 3T.

If it's the emmc then only way to fix is to replace the full motherboard, which isn't cheap.
It's a known problem on note 4. Emmc chip fails and eventually completely packs in.
Which custom Roms did you try? Carhd rom is a good one to try very reliable. Also when flashing a custom ROM it can take 20-30 minutes to boot into the system.

True they are very expensive that's why I'd rather just buy a new phone. I just didn't want to give up such good hardware until I've tried everything.
Oh really? I wonder why that's the case
I actually forgot which ones already but I'm sure I tried Carhd and it didn't boot for more than an hour. But I'll go and check again just to be thorough.

Yeah it's a shame really. I could be wrong that might not occur on yours. Normally when you get emmc failure, the phone will reboot to download mode and give you an error along the lines of emmc Write fail. And then keep repeating this.
3T is a good choice to go for if that's what you decide

It's alright I feel like whatever the hardware issue is it'll require the motherboard to be swapped out anyways. I can finally let the phone rest in peace haha thank you very much.
Yeah it's perfect for an android enthusiast. Already ordered one. Good bye and thanks again!

Wouldn't say it was motherboard yet. After you flash your rom you need to boot to recovery and wipe data/cache. This will fix the apps crashing
done,cant boot the system.
gave a visit to a few services,they sad around 50e would be reparation,but im student and now dont have cash for that ****..you have any other suggestions? i tried custom roms,at first magisk would always faild,last time it was ok but still couldnt boot

Do not pay for it. Chances are if you can't fix it they can't either.
So have you tried flashing stock firmware?
What Android version do you have and what region? What's full model number g925?
Reduce the cpu frequencies to 1200-800mhz for big and little and userspace governor. This the only fix.
ok,so one more thing,on the glass back of the phone sits one imei that is not correct,and on the battery is another,which reports 64g version,while next to that number is printed 32gb and phone actually has 32gb lool
it is supposed to be g925f,but after i installed some custom rom,pc showed it as g925s? i think it is due to rom signing the wrong model number
the last thing i have done was yesterday,and it was flashing firmware through kies again.
and this is what i get :
s6 edge powered by android,followed by blue screen 'installing system update',and then recovery
in the recovery,i get this :
android recovery
samsung/zeroltexx/zerolte
7.0/NRD90M/G925FXXU5EQBG
user/release-keys
*recovery options*
No suppoer SINGLE-SKU
Supported API: 3
dm-verity error...
i realy dont know what else to try,and i am open to all suggestions..i have read that emmc storage is broken so this kind of problems can occur,so maybe service would do that?
thank you,i know this is confusing and boring problem
i tried with odin once more,and it failed at 25% instaing system update,then i restarted it and it got up to 32% and started erasing and it turned off..tf with this phone?? i guess its broken...

Download and flash that firmwsre through odin before you try anything else. Let me know what happens.
I can tell you it's likely not emmc failure. For this you would get random reboots and it would reboot to download mode. There you would have an error emmc_write_error.
wowo thanks,i just gave up on that phone,i will try again,i will report back!
just one question,why vodafone?
oh,and i did have random reboots on android m,but it would reboot to optimizing android and boot

Phone reboots and is stuck in a bootloop afterwards no matter what rom/kernel.

I'm left clueless here. I just can't get it to boot, no matter what ROM/Kernel i'd flash. It was originally running OOS 2.3.1 but flashing it now won't work anymore. It worked briefly for 1 hour with that AOSP 8.1 but then after trying to flash gapps it stuck again in a bootloop. Sometimes it also freezes and reboots while i am flashing sometimes. I really have no idea what should i do next, hope you can help me.
You need to give more information on which TWRP you have.
Did you upgrade the bootloader at one point ?
OOS 2 is the old one.
You should have upgraded to MM bootloader and the use a TWRP compatible.
If not, you'll have to follow the Mega Unbrick Guide...

I updated the bootloader like over a year ago or so. I also tried 2 different versions of TWRP, now i am using the latest one.
ALSO, very sorry it actually is OOS 3.1.4, not 2.3.1, i just typed briefly what i could remember, i haven't been using this phone for months now but i would like to give it to a relative so there's that. Hope you can help me out, i have no clue why is it acting up like that.
Have you ever think that could be the emmc problem that need to get replaced?
Our phone is old enough...
(just my thoughts btw)
Try to flash official ROM after having wiped everything

I don't really understand what you are trying to say. I did wipe everything and the only way to flash anything is through adb sideload anyway since the device is not recognized as storage while in TWRP. I think I am gonna give up on it, I was gonna sell it but I can't risk having it act up days/weeks after i sold it.
