Ok I tried to flash "Mind Blown" kernel this yesterday morning and I haven't been able to mount internal or external storage ever since. I was running Axura 2.2.8.8 with the lag fix disabled and flashed Eugene's kernel and upon booting was stuck in a boot loop. I decided to try and run recovery mode but noticed that my sd card read no data. Upon an odin back to stock I realized that I could no longer mount internal nor external storgae and got the error in recovery mode I
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:
Once my vibrant boots it says internal storage damaged and external says missing or invalid mount point. I flashed kernels, roms and virtually everything I possibly know how to do, and now I need the help of an absolute wiz. Guys i really need your help with this one, I'm totally lost.
I've looked all over the internet for a solution but they are either only part of my problem or do something that I don't understand with the SDK kit.
So I started up my rooted Droid incredible phone today and it just freezes at the HTC incredible flash screen. I have to pull out the battery to restart it. I can get into CWM recovery but it says
E:can't mount /cache/recover/command
E:can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:can't mount /cache/recover/log
E:can't mount /cache/recover/last_log
E:can't open /cache/recover/last_log
It wont even read anything from the SD card. So I am unable to mount the SD card or access it by usb through the phone.
I tried a factory reset and nothing happened. CWM wont even run a recovery or factory reset.
I am at a total lose.
Please help me fix this!
the SD card wont mount so i cant get to anyone on the card.
It looks like your eMMc chip went bad. Your phone is most likely bricked. The only way to come back from this that doesnt always work is to put an RUU on your SD card and boot into HBoot. I don't have your phone, but the RUU's should be available in your phones forum.
Okay, I don't normally post. In fact I always normally find solutions using the search, but I am out of options and at my wits limit.
I have an 8gb nook tablet which I loaded up with CM7. After I booted it up I reformatted the SD card to start fresh.
Upon restarting the tablet It would no longer boot into CM7 and would instead get stuck on CWM.
"No problem I thought, Ill just re-flash it from my SD card" But when I went to install it from SD card it told me
it couldn't mount the SD card. I rebooted and again landed in recovery which yielded the following messages
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
I already tried the B&N8gb/16gb .img that restores the tablet to stock but that was a no go.
I then tried to make a bootable SD card using the CM7 alpha but that also did not work
After I tried to use the Ubuntu recovery to 1.4.0 but realized that it was only for the 16gb nook
I got what I think is ADB going on windows following this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474956
So I could try this solution

But I can't for the life of me figure out what I need to type into CMD. It's been 3 days. I have never been so lost and confused in my life.
Pleas kind strangers of XDA. Help me.

You need to format your sd card to use
First connect the sd card to the computer and copy the files
Then format sd card to fat or ext4 or ntfs (not sure which one is supported on your device)
After formatting, copy only the required files into the sd card and then try to access recovery.
And then try to install a zip.
If you still don't get, then try to change recovery and use some other custom recovery and try to flash again.
Press thanks if I have helped.
PM me if you don't get it working properly.

That custom rom is the problem. I can guarantee it.
If you have the image of the stock rom, you have more chances of accessing your tablet.
I think you can use ADB. I personally never used ADB before. So you can search on Google and Xda on how to use it.
Hi Guys,
I'm pretty new here and hoping you can all help me with unbricking my phone.
So I have a Samsung S3 I9300, with CM 13.0 installed, I am using CW recovery v2.7.0.0
I've installed many custom ROMS to this device over the past few years without a problem, each time formatting and wiping Dalvik cache etc..
Today my phone randomly rebooted and a message came up that my phone failed to encrypt and it wiped all my data and that I had to reboot into recovery to perform a factory reset.
A bit random I thought.. So I rebooted into recovery and did a "reset to default" in CW.. this was successful, however I noticed some issues on the terminal screen...
Code:
E: Unable to find partition size for /boot
E: Unable to find partition size for /recovery
E: Primary block device /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 for mount point is not present!
E: Unable to mount internal storage
E: Unable to mount /data/media during GUI startup
E: Unable to mount /cache
Full SELinux support is present
E: Unable to mount /cache
E: Unable to mount /cache
E: Unable to mount /data/media/TWRP/.twrps when trying to read settings file
E: Unable to mount /data
Updating Partition details...
E: Unable to mount /efs
E: Unable to mount /data
E: Unable to mount /data
E: Unable to mount /cache
E: Unable to mount /system
E: Unable to mount /data
E: Unable to mount /preload
E: Unable to mount internal storage
I've tried to format but it shows failed.
I cannot install another ROM as both the internal memory and SD card both show 0MB
I've plugged the SD card into my computer and there are still files on the card.
I've had a look online and found that typing in a command into the terminal should fix it, however nothing happens..
I get an error that mmcblk0p12 does not exist.
Code:
mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
Any help would be great! Although i'm pretty sure it's bricked
Cheers Guys!

Did you have any success with this, Chris?
This sounds like what happened to my I9300 on CM12.1. It just froze and only rebooted to Samsung logo and stayed there.
When in TWRP recovery, there's just no access to internal memory or SD card.
The terminal mentions a lot of "E: unable to mount /data", /cache, /system, storage, etc
Most TWRP options fail to do anything, because of not being able to access partitions.
No factory reset, no wipes, no installing img's. When rebooting to system, it warns about no OS being installed.
Downloading a stock firmware now to see if it flashes via ODIN, but I don't have high hopes for it.
Does anybody know what would cause this? Or is it just bricked now?

Ah well, mine seems dead too. The recovery doesn't work anymore, only download mode, but ODIN can't get anything on it...
I think the main storage just died.

Damn, I dunno what happened.. My CM was a nightly though, SO I can only assume it was unstable.
Just bizarre how my phone rebooted and gave the message that it was unable to encrypt the device and needed to be factory reset.

I was running a quite stable CM12.1 version for a couple of months now. Only had two reboots all this time.

I had a few reboots when it was working, then it just suddenly bricked my phone
Sounds like the eMMC brickbug. You need to get the eMMC replaced. All of you that face the problems.
Well, after four years my S3 was getting very slow. It was bearable with CM, but I decided to say farewell now.
Also, my microphone was busted when I dropped it at some point, so I could only call with a headset anyway.
It's not worth replacing I think, time to move on
The same happened to my Beelink GT1 S912 9377 TV-box (after failed OTA update). Will check eMMC brickbug (from TWRP) ...
