Did you have root before? If so, try smartswitch, or flash the stock ROM using Odin.

Did you flash the latest version of your ROM? Also maybe just try booting into recovery and reset it from there. That should work. If it doesn't, please also provide the error given there. Because it looka like a partition of your phone is missing. That's what I think the /preload stands for. Might just as well be just a directory.

Did you try to reset from within the recovery? Boot into recovery mode and reset data/factory reset there. Also try smart switch.

Dif you try smartswitch already? If not, then please do it. Also which bersion of Odin are you using? You might also want to try to remove the .md5 part from the filename and try again.
I also just found the following solution:
1. Unpack your firmware using Winrar
2. Rename hidden.img to hidden.img.tar
3. Load the hidden.img.tar into Odin under AP and flash it.
See if it works. If it doesn't please try smartswitch.

You are wrong. If he doesn't tick repartition and doesn't use pit file. His mobile will not be correctly partitioned according to partition table.
Help me too
Help me out.. My friend's ace with this same model too is suffering from the same problem. I was the one who tried to wake it up after the hard brick. I repartitioned and flashed the stock firmware through odin, flash was successful. But the error mounting data appears and the device stucks on bootloop. Also i saw something like unable to move data_recovery_log.
I usually come across mount data errors after flashing stock firmwares in my Galaxy Y duos (s6102) but for us it is known that it would be resolved with a stock data wipe.But that too failed in this case. I am not familiar to the repartitioning things..

[Q] Can't mount data ( i try everything) please help!!!

well i successfully flash stock rom via odin 1.85 and 3.07 but still get the same error below,
E:failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
E: copy_log_files_to_data :: can't mount /dataRebooting
i have try to put pit file and repartition still get the same error.
Sorry for bad english, Please Help!!!
Maybe your downloaded firmware is corrupted. Try another unsplitted firmware with Odin 3.07

I was having same problem but i used muticsc file and bootloader file and without pit file and problem is solved...:laugh:
i used other CSC file GT-S5830i-MULTI-CSC-OXEKK4_RST.tar.md5
instead of CSC_S5830i_ODDLF1.tar.md5
and bootloader file- BOOT_S5830iXXLB1_REV00.tar.md5
PDA - PDA_S5830i_XXLF3.tar.md5
PHONE - MODEM_S5830i_DDLF1.tar.md5
and no pit file
and problem is solved only language is different so i changed in language setting
you can search for csc and bootloader file directly in google it is just of 2mb

Hey how did you solved your problem??
As i too having same problem...
None of that has worked
I've followed all these suggestions and Ue still can't mount data AND Odin fails! Have tried various recommended files. Some seem ok others cause Odin to hang. Either way, the Ue is still sticking at the first Samsung logo not the animation. I can still get into download mode and recovery mode. The phone first went into a boot loop to the animation whilst playing a legit game from Play Store. Rooting from CWM bricked it. Thats when I noticed that it wasn't mounting data...just skipping.
Does any have an answer that deffo works or do I have a hardware fault? What does data refer to, the internal UE memory?
After flashing stock rom. Go into recovery mode and wipe data and catch it will work.

Enter recovery, delete system, data, cache, delvik partitions (You will loose all info on it).
Reflash rom, factory reset then reboot.
Alternatively go to download mode and flash stock.

S6 G925I - Can´t flash stock firmware(SW Rev, Check Fail)

Hi guys,
Today I was updating my bootloader and modem to 5.1.1 to install a new ROM, this step was in the guide of the rom.
I flash via Odin and work fine, but my phone get stucked in the Samsung logo.
I tryied to restore my nandroid but didn´t work, and I was able to enter in the TWRP, i try to wipe all cache but nothing again.
I tryied to do an emergence software recovery from SmartSwitch, and fails everytime.
When I try to flash the stock firmware 5.0.2, don´t pass in the Odin and in the phone appears the message: SW REV. CHECK FAIL DEVIDE : 2 BINARY 1 in bold and red.
And now I can´t access my recovery mode, only download.
I´ve tryied to remove the hidden img but don´t work either.
Any other ideas? Dont know what to try now
SM-G925I
PDA: OE3
CSC: OD2
PHONE: OE3(ZTO)
I tryied now to flash the stock firmware 5.1.1 indian version, but fails.

I did man. I´ve removed the hidden.img, cm.bin and sboot.bin files from the Stock firmware 5.1.1 from UK.
Use the Total Commander to delete the files and mount the .tar file to flash in Odin...
I try 2 times to work
