Hello, I'm getting this error in the stock recovery on a galaxy S2 I9100G when I try to use the option 'apply update from external storage'
E: failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory), i'm trying to install a zip file but i'm getting this error, just before that I flashed the official stock 4.0.3 firmwire update with odin ( i downloaded the file with kies then copied it from the temporary folder to flash it on odin because kies was stuck) and it worked and after that I did a complete factory reset and wiped everything, but now i want to root the device but i can't do that because i'm getting the error above when i try to use the recovery mode
any help would be really appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hello everbody!
At first, my English isn't very well, so sorry for that.
My Problem:
I wanted to install CM 11 on my Ace I (GT-S5830i), but this extremly failed. To keep it short, i haven't any OS on my device now, but I can enter the CWM (version 6.0.1.2)
What I have done:
Install CWM
wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition (but in the Stock recovery)
format /system (in CWM)
Now I get the error message:
E: can't mount Cache/recovery/log
I tried to install CM 11 (for the Ace I (GT-S5830i) for sure)
Install zip from sdcard
but I get these Messages:
Opening update package...
Installing update...
This package is for "cooperve.GT-S5830i, gt-5830i devices; this is a "".
E:Error in /sdcard/cm-11...
(Status 7)
Install aborted.
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 openCache/recovery/last_log
I was so silly and didn't make a backup.
When I try to start the device, only the gt-5830i-Logo appears, of course, ther is no OS installed.
So what can I do? Is there any chance to install an OS?
I also tried to install the Stock Firmware with Odin; result failed.
Thanks!
Edit:
Odin works, now I have the Stock Firmware, but I can't flash CM 11;

This error is not serious, it just means, that it cannot create log files, because of the missing cache partition.
I also got this error when using the "on-the-fly" CWM.
If you install a ROM (which has a kernel), then CWM gets installed to the recovery/kernel partition, then you have a "rock stable" CWM.
Hopefully without errors. But for now, you can just ignore this error.

On some devices the device info in the properties is empty, and therefore the updater-script thinks, the device is not supported.
If you know exactly that your device is supported, you can delete the first lines of the updater-script.
Steps
Open the *.zip with WinRAR or similar
Go to META-INF\com\google\android
Extract the updater-script (Drag & Drop), don't close WinRAR
Open the updater-script with your favorite text editor (i.e. notepad++)
Delete the first lines containing "assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "your_device" || getprop(...) == "...");"
This line can be on multiple lines, so be sure to delete the complete "assert" statement
Drag & Drop the modified updater-script into WinRAR (same folder as before)
Optionally sign the *.zip
Install it with CWM
Be sure what you are doing (at your own risk)
If it worked, feel free to hit Thanks :victory:
Thank you for your efforts, I really appreciate it, but I solved the Problem.
As I said, now I have the Sotck Firmware (thanks Odin ^^).
I flashed CWM again with Odin, and tada, I could install CM 11, without any Problems.

Yeah, flashing the CWM with Odin is another great solution.
Then you have a working CWM out of the box, and the device properties are setted correctly.
I'm glad it's working now

When you press the combo for download mod the black screen comes up right ? At that time connect your phone to PC an turn on Odin & last press volume up that's it your phone will be get connected.
Thank you!

Hello
I had installed CM 11 4.4 on my Galaxy S2. Today I decided to downgrade it to 2.3.x so I used Odin and took stock 2.3.4 ROM with PIT/PDA/PHONE/CSC.
At the installation , there was a error in the phone - data 0 error (or something like that, I didnt remember). After the installation process in Odin, the phone stuck at Samsung logo. I can go into the Download Mode. Now I cant flash any ROM because I have errors in Odin. I tried to use the OneClick tool but it dont work. Its my first phone brick so idk what should I do. Please help
This is a error after I flashed 2.3.4 :
E:failed to mount /data (Unknown error:0) E: install_application_for_customer:Cant mount / data your storage not prepared yet, please UI menu for format nad reboot actions, copy application failed
I repaired this error but I still cant boot into the phone menu. It stuck at the boot Samsung logo. Wipe data/cache is not the fix. I tried different ROMs and kernels.
So I have flashed the TWRP tar file for my device via Odin on my galaxy s7 but when it boots I have to fill in my pattern and it says wrong code.
I already saw some people saying you have to go into data/system in recovery but for me when I click on data it doesnt say anything. I am doing this on a stock ROM btw on android 7.0 .
EDIT: When trying to mount /data it says Failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
I already got it to work by flashing magisk zip
Hello,
Yesterday I unlocked my Galaxy S3 i9300, turned the Wifi on and soon after that my phone started to reboot.
This happened a few times before, but this time it got stuck on the "Galaxy S3" Screen.
So I booted in the Recovery Mode (TWRP 3.1.10) and was planning to wipe the cache partition, but I got the Error that the Recovery is unable to mount Any Partition..
So I cant do anything.
I wanted to ask, why my phone can not mount any Partitions anymore for example (system, efs, cache..).
What exatly is damaged and is it repairable?
I took a picture of the Error Message, but i dont know how to upload it. So I wrote it down.
Hope someone can help me and sorry for my bad english.
Kind Regards.

Try to find .pit file and flash it with odin. and then flash your stock rom.
My phone's model is SHV-E210K, i have searched on google but haven't found any .pit file related to my phone.
The sboot.bin file is the bootloader and it is not flashing because the bootloader in the phone is newer than than the bootloader in the ROM, the ROM is not for the phone, try a different USB cable, and/or try different USB ports.
The problem is recovery has gone crazy. Recovery mounts partitions. I've seen this problem a lot with twrp. When it happened to me I flashed the latest official cwmr via Odin. If you have a stock rom on the phone you can flash a stock recovery too. DO NOT FLASH A STOCK RECOVERY IF YOUR ROM ISN'T STOCK/ROOTED STOCK!!!

Please help phone stuck on samsung galaxy siii gt-i9300 logo have got cwm recovery and odin need stock rom with pit ?
Try flashing the latest stock ROM with Odin or factory reset.
where do i find stock rom with pit file ? cannot seem to locate
Try flashing without a pit file.
Stock roms are at Sammobile.com, updato.com, or Samsung-firmware.org.
thanks i will try again but i believe i damaged pit when i was trying to root by selecting re partion box, so re flash with pit firmware or replace motherboard ?
tried to flash stock rom and rom with pit no just stuck on startup with samsung galaxy siii gt-i9300 can get into recovery and odin mode.
Try flashing a stock firmware first. If there is any problems with the partitioning odin will tell you.
If odin says you need a pit file that's when you start looking for one.
thanks for all your help, after flashing with stock rom using odin, phone now boot to samsung logo and keeps looping ?
When i trying to root i think by mistake i ticked the re partion box should i get another motherbaord ?
If the phone flashed a stock ROM without a pit file, try performing a factory reset from recovery mode.
I get this message;
E: failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
cant mount to /data (invalid argument)
Manual mode
applying multi csc
applied csc code
succesfully applied csc code
E: failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
cant mount to /data (invalid argument)
E: failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
quick update after factory reset and loading stock 4.3 phone came to life again, i then installed linear rom and rooted with twrp.
