Hi,
I have a Galaxy S3 I9300, I was running Temasek CM12.1 - version 12.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-temasek-s-unofficial-cyanogenmod-12-t3086689).
All of a sudden my phone rebooted and is now stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy SIII" screen.
I CAN boot into download mode and recovery mode (I have TWRP 2.7.0.0 installed).
I CANT boot into Android or mount internal or external storage.
Ive tried to reflash CM12 by Temasek and CM11 by CyanogenMod and also a stock rom from SamMobile but ODIN keeps failing: http://pasteboard.co/2cyl2aKU.png
Before my phone stopped working I created a TWRP backup hoping it would backup my images and videos but when I check my external SD on my laptop I just shows my the following files (TWRP>BACKUPS>4df1b92257504f3d>2015-07-19--07-08-57 LMY47V test-keys):
Code:
boot.emmc.win
boot.emmc.win.md5
data.ext4.win000
data.ext4.win000.md5
data.ext4.win001
data.ext4.win001.md5
recovery.log
system.ext4.win
system.ext4.win.md5
When I launch TWRP and check the log it says the following:
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 '/data' is not present!
E:Unable to mount '/data'

E:Unable to mount '/cache'
Full SELinux support is present.
E:Unable to mount /data/media/TWRP/.twrp when trying to read settings file.
E:Unable to mount '/data'
Is there a way to fix this, or force the phone to mount the internal storage?
I would like to backup/pull my PICTURES AND VIDEOS from the phone. Ive tried ADB pull but can't seem to get it to pull anything as the storage isn't mounted. However I can push files fine, I pushed a custom rom and tried to flash but still not able to flash from recovery either.
Or can someone point me in the direction of a specialist that can recover my images and videos.
Thanks in Advance all the help is appreciated.
Same here...
Hi, I have the same problem. If you have any solution I'll appreciate.

can you get to download mode? . Will it take a flash?. Try an official clockworkmod recovery. Ages ago twrp did a number on my phone too, managed to flash cwmr and got it back.. I don't like twrp, it breaks phones.

Hello,
I ran into some issues after installing the Classic Jewel V0.0.4 Rom that ultimately led to my internal SD card not being recognized or not mounted properly. For the record, I am not blaming the ROM nor am I suggesting that there is anything wrong with the ROM.
Below is the sequence of events:
1. Full wipe of everything except SD card.
2. Flashed the ROM.
3. The Phone booted all the way to the setup wizard but then rebooted.
4. Phone went into a bootloop.
5. Re-flashed the ROM without wiping.
6. The Phone won't get pass the HTC logo screen.
7. I went in recovery and wiped everything and Flashed Fresh's rom / this did not work.
8. I flashed maybe two other ROMS and still not working.
9. I went into bootloader and did a factory reset (I think this may have been my downfall)
10. The internal SD card is not mounted (or not mounted properly) in Recovery. (I can see the SD card, and see the TWRP folder but nothing else.)
11. Flashing any ROM fails. I see several lines of this error: "E:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)"
12. I tried to do a restore but the file is not there (I guess it's because the internal SD card is acting up?)
Any ideas on how I can fix this?
----------------
Edit:
Here are some more errors that I see while in Recovery
E:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)

I think my problem could be fixed by doing something similar to what's discussed in this thread... but I have no clue on what to do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526912
Stab in the dark but can you get Windows to recognize the sd while in recovery? If so open cmd prompt and type chkdsk /X /F <SD card drive letter> and see if it repairs it......just a thought

The problem is gone!
The strangest thing happened. I kept flashing roms and they kept failing. Eventually, I tried flashing the MeanRom and it flashed successfully.
I am not sure how that was possible but I am happy! I lost some most of files I had in the Internal SD card though but that's okay!
I am going to install the Classic Jewel rom again and see if the same thing happen again.
I know this thread is a little old but i didn't find much else on this issue. I followed these steps to get a ROM loaded back on my phone
ROM update without SDcard
If you don't have an sd card, or your slot is broken you can try this trick, but you will need a custom recovery like Clockwork.
Boot up your phone to recovery. And move your rom file to the adb directory, and start a command line ( cmd )
adb shell
mount data
adb push D:\custom_rom.zip /data/
Wait until the push finised, and restart your device to recovery again with "adb reboot-bootloader"
mount data
mount /data /sdcard ( mount the data folder into your sdcard folder, so your recovery will think that you have an sdcard installed )
Locate the ROM .Zip file you wish to flash.
Confirm the flash by following the on-screen instructions (ie: pressing the trackball, pressing the call button, etc.)
If no errors arise during the flashing process then the ROM flash was successful, Reboot the device.
With some root file explorer, remove the rom file if you don't need it anymore, to free up space.
Or use adb to remove the custom recovery
adb shell rm data/custom_rom.zip
I am still trying to figure out whats going on with my internal SD I will post if i find a solution.
Do not use clockwork recovery.

I was running Androwook HairbyBean V2.31 for months.
I decided I wanted to try CMB 4.3.1. The custom TWRP 2.5 from Androwook would not recognize it for whatever reason. So I downloaded the new TWRP JB.blob from the TWRP website (2.6.3.0). I updated it via Fastboot. Everything went fine. I booted into TWRP and now it prompts me for a password and will not mount anything (System, SD, external SD, etc...). The worst part is I cannot get back to Fastboot no matter how many times I try to reboot holding Power and Volume down. Ugh. Here is what TWRP states:
E:Unable to find parition size for '/misc'
E:Unable to find parition size for '/staging'
E:Unable to find parition size for '/data'
E:Unable to find parition size for '/boot'
E:Unable to find parition size for '/recovery'
Updating partition details....
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:TWFunc::COpy_Log --Can't open destination log file: '/cache/recovery/log'
E:Unable to set emmc bootloader message.
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
When I go into the Mount Menu in TWRP I cannot select any Partitions to mount.
When I shutdown or reboot with TWRP it says that SU is not installed, if I allow it to install it fails as it cannot write to the path.
Next step was I installed the Universal Naked Driver .72 to get Win8 to recognize my Prime as an ADB device. I tried the Option 1a from the popular "How to Unbrick your Transformer Prim (or Not)" thread. Everything seemed to work just fine but no change in status. I still cannot get to fastboot mode and I am stuck continually rebooting into TWRP and TWRP itself refuses to mount anything so I cannot flash or restore. Stuck. Now what?
Any help or guidance is appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time and support.

I thought I put this in the Q&A/Help section but evidently not. It will not allow me to delete or move. Mods: Please feel free to do so. Sorry.
I guess I figured out the issue. Sucky.

Hi All
I had my phone on charge overnight (as usual), but when I got up this morning, I had an error "Device memory damaged" on screen, it says "The data partition has been corrupted. You need to reset the device to factory defaults. This will erase all your data" and has a button marked "Reset device"
When I tap the button, it boots to recovery, TWRP scrolls some text on screen, it then reboots back to the same error screen.
If I manually boot into recovery and try to wipe data, I'm told
Code:
E: Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.
E: Unable to mount '/data'
E: Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Updating partition details...
E: Unable to mount '/data'
E: Unable to mount internal storage.

I tried flashing recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.6-i9300 via heimdall to see if that had any more success, but that failed too (although I'm not sure if that was due to the phone or my heimdall set-up).
I've spent most of the day trying to find a fix, but I'm just going around in circles.
The Phone is an i9300, and it was running UltimaROM 17.1
Any ideas how to get my phone working again?

First flash the latest stock firmware for your country then factory reset in recovery before first boot.
If that fails then try the rescue firmware thread in general forum, use the 4 3 version and pit file that thread contains.
If that also fails then it sounds like your memory is indeed damaged.
I wouldn't advise anyone charge the battery in their phone overnight, the processor and nand memory is then running 24/7 and will obviously fail sooner

I have same problem but phone is s7 edge. Did you found a solution.
Unable to mount is a twrp issue. I've seen it many times before.
I have solved it on a custom rom by flashing an official clockworkmod recovery.
I have solved it on a stock firmware by flashing a stock recovery
I have solved it by flashing back to stock completely.
*I have read that some people cannot recover their phone from that state.*
hi guys ,
I'm using yu yuphoria which was running on lineage os 13.0 official nightly.
When I unlocked my phone tried to open playstore then suddenly many app were unfortunately stopping.
So I restarted my phone and after booting a message came that encryption problem and have to factory reset the phone.
So i wanted to recover my data in internal storage so booted to recovery (twrp) and then tried to do system reset, then an error came quoting
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Formatting cache using make_ext4fs...
Failed to mount '/cache' (Invalid argument)
Updating partition details...
Failed to mount '/system' (Invalid argument)
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Failed to mount '/cache' (Invalid argument)
...done
Unable to mount storage
I tried to flash the stock rom using command but the flashing process will complete but the phone wont boot up and twrp recovery isn't going anywhere.
I also tried to change the file type in advance wipe to ext4, fat, exfat......
nothing worked so please give me a solution guys.:crying:
thank you in advance.

Hello, I have this problem where TWRP is not able to mount /data, although the device still works without any other problems. This is preventing me to install XPosed, unfortunately. I have a custom ROM installed, although I can flash stock temporarily if required.
I've done an extensive Google search for this, and all the methods didn't help at all. TWRP can't repair nor reformat the data partition.
Here's the full log:
Code:

I looked into the TWRP fstab, and noticed that the partition types didn't match, so I formatted the partition with the correct type and reflashed the ROM, and now everything is going smoothly. Thanks!
