Hello
Quite a while ago I decided to try modding my old Samsung Galaxy Ace (GT-S5830). I got it rooted alright, but when installing a mod something went wrong. If I start the phone normally, it get's stuck at the "Galaxy Ace"-screen, meaning it gets past first "Samsung"-screen. However, after that it just hangs in there. This happened a while ago, but I think the mod I was trying to install was ClockWork mod.
Today I decided to try and resurrect my phone. I followed the instructions here: unbrick.itcse.com/unbrick-soft-bricked-samsung-galaxy-ace-s5830/ (can't use links as new user, sorry) and managed to flash it with default firmware. However, now when I try to boot the phone, it goes automatically after "Galaxy Ace"-screen to system recovery mode and gives following error:
Can't access to 'system/csc
d/system'.
(I don't know or how, but it seems to have two empty rows in the message).
If I try to factory reset or wipe cache partition, I get following error:
E: format_volum: rfs format failed on /dev/stl14
(I remember seeing this error before flashing firmware and after the initial try at modding)
I can still access the download mode. What should I do?

Hi xda doods!
I own an old verizon galaxy Tab 7 (sch-1800), but it fails on boot, i'm stuck at Verizon splashscreen. I can access to download mode and recovery mode, but factory reset fails too. It says cache and stuff can't be mounted.
I can't find a lot of info about the sch-1800.
I managed to find the stock rom, and install it with Odin. So now i only can see some...noisy rainbow instead of the splash.
I still have access to download mode and recovery.
I'm wondering what should i put into Odin or how can i apply stuff with the SD card to make it run again
I can't find any answer on the forum about the SCH-1800
Thanks for any help, or helpful link
additionnal data :
a friend of mine brought me this tab from the US, it worked perfectly for a while, but one day it just stumped on splashscreen. Not frozen, i still have the verizon music and animation and stuff.
Im living in France and only using the wi-fi.
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Prevail II with Framaroot-1.9.3.apk, granted SuperSU, then chose Gandalph option.
After rooting, I used Odin 1.85 to install recovery CWM_Prevail2_Ring_Koumajutsu.
It would not boot all the way. It would get to the second Samsung logo and flash it on the screen. I waited for an hr. It never booted.
I tried to install SPH-M840_MH5_Stock, that has bloatware removed. Still fail.
So I was frantic and started formatting data and cache cuz it said "can't mount data (or cache).
Then I saw a mounting option. So I mounted everything it would let me.
That got rid of the "can't mount" errors, but it would show a yeild sign below the first Samsung logo.
And when I try to restart from recovery, it says no root and does the yeild sign. And the whole time I have been working on it, since I flashed the recovery, it says "can't find /tmp/recovery".
So. I think for the no root error, formatting it, removed root...
HELP PLEASE!!!
Blessed be,
Toxic

Hi XDA members, I came here because I'm tired and I cant'd do anything more, I need help
Ok so first I had a Samsung Galaxy Core Duos GTI8262, original, no modified, android 4.1.2, everything all right.
Then I starded to try to install a costum ROM with 4.4. I rooted it, and then I found a CMW Recovery and I had installed it via Odin307, but it didn't work because it was not compatible with my phone, it was crashing all the time and the phone used to make noises, like an engine working or something, and then it shuts down. Then after much search I found here in XDA a costum Recovery Based in CMW for my phone, "CMW based Recovery v6.0.4.7".
I installed it via Odin307 under the previous CMW that dint work properly, and finally everething went all right, I installed a ROM with KitCat, then another with Lillicop, etc... then I wanted to try Cynogen, it was in my model devolopment and I installed it, bigger mistake, it didn't recognize SIM card such as Wifi, Bluethoth, etc... no conections. I get tired because with all my Download mode started to get stuck, so, I could not install another ROM, so, angry, I went to based CMW Recovery and I formatted EVERYTHING, until get to the point where there wasn't ANY file in SDCARD0, I tried to make factory Reset, didn't work, so I turn the phone On and the logo "Galaxy Core Duos GTI8262" stays there forever... the phone doesn't start.
THEEN... i downloaded the stock ROM here in XDA to my model (I'm Portuguese (Portugal)), and tried to install it via Odin207. I was waiting that the Download Mode got stucked again but I tried it in the same way, because I didn't knew what to do more. BUT, instead of get stuck, the Download Mode only stays for aprox. 5 seconds, then the phone shuts down... SO > nothing in SDCARD0 (and the CWM Based doesn't have the option to install anything in extSDCard I dont know why...) and Download Mode crashes... without pay nothing, WHAT CAN I DO PEOPLE?
Please help, sorry my English...

I was messing around on my phone. I ended up accidently deleting my OS when i ment to do a factory reset(at the time i was using TWRD recovery. it was telling me i had no OS after. I got a MD5 file that is for the galaxy s4 i337m (canadian bell) which is whom my service provider is. when i try to boot my phone now i have the normal menus without the custom recovery but i cant get passed the samsung logo. i have tried hard reset and hasnt worked. i tried going into recovery and doing a wipe on the cache and doing a factory reset. and still unable to go passed
....
i have tried watching youtube videos and following things online but i cant access my phone.. so i cant do half of what anyone is saying to do.
I also had a error that was saying my software had an issue so i did a autoroot for my phone and now im back to being stuck at the logo screen

Click to collapse
Try to get into download mode, and reflash rom with ODIN.
Go to sammobile.com to download firmware for you device.
Give feedback.
solved it
After resting...flashing stock rom, hard re setting, basically watched every video on how to fix a Samsung that won't get passed logo. I ended up getting kies and i entered in my serial number and model number and it fixed my phone in about an hour with my proper software.
I had recently found out how to root my Galaxy S3 specificly the Sprint model since then I was messing with Xposed, and a few specific Modules having to do with the UI I encountered a UI crash when I rebooted the first time, then after that I attempted to wipe the device thinking that would fix the issue only to have it not boot into the device instead stick at the boot screen (I cant share links yet or Id show an image) I have flashed the Clockwork Mod Recovery tool into the device which worked I have access to Odin and CWM I just don't know how to fix this issue and it only looks like I make things worse if I try to look it up myself does anyone know what I should do???
Edit
I managed t get the device running by finding the original firmware update zip on the samsung website then ran it throught adb the situation resolved itself thanks though.
