-----------------------EDIT--------------------
when i try another hboot it never works :S.
only the stock one???
I had the same issue
Did you created an SD-Ext Partition on your SD-Card? Without the Lockscreen and some other things won't work, since they are stored on SD-Ext
I have made an sd-ext partition but i still have no lockscreen! is there any workaround or solution?
I have the same issue. I first installed AceSMod007 (v34) with out creating a ext4 partition, and got a lot of low storage message. I then wiped the SD card and created the FAT32, swap and ext4 partitions. Did a factory reset from Recovery and flashed the AceSMod007 zip again. Everything seems to be working now except for the lock screen?
Did I need to wipe something else before flashing again?
EDIT:
BTW, there's no lockscreens available in the settings...
what mean the lockscreen doesn't work? Is there no lockscreen? or u can't unlock ur phone?
There's no lockscreen. When I press the power button it just show the status bar and the background image and nothing more. I can unlock by press the track button. If I go to the settings to change the lockscreen, there's none installed.

how did u created the ext partition? what recovery u using? u are using hte AceSMod stock or cm7 one?
ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.5. I booted Gparted from USB. The ext partition seems to be working. App2SD installs the apps I download to the ext partition...
Something I need to wipe before trying to flash again? (I did install AceSMod007 the first time with out a ext partition )

if the app2sd its working correctly, then is ok
but if the first time u installed it without ext partition, then some part of the rom (like the lockscreen and some minor things) was not flashed!
should be enough only to wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash the rom again..
if at the next boot doesn't work, try a full wipe..wipe data/factory reset (u will lose ur settings and everything..make a nandroid just in case), cache and dalvik..and flash again..
edit: i think ur recovery is 2.5.0.7
When I select Wipe Dalvik Cache in the Recovery menu it says: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (File exists)
I then press Yes - Wipe Dalvik Cache.
It then says Dalvik Cache wiped.
Should I just ignore the first error?
Thanks!

Well, i think u can ignore it..I received it too in the past when wiping dalvik cache, i dont remember exactly why i was getting it..but should be ok
Tried wiping cache+dalvik. Still no luck. The wiped data/factory reset+cache+dalvik. And still no luck.
I could see that the apps I had downloaded previously were still present. Should I try wiping the SD-Ext?

I also tried deleting all partitions on the SD card and making new ones, wiped data, cache and dalvik cache, flashed the ROM again, but the lock screen is still not working. And I got a message saying my apps had been reestablished...
I am trying to install a new Rom in my mobile, and it asks for a FULL WIPE. What is a full wipe? Is it Dalvik+Cache? Dalvik+Cache+SD format?
boot, system, data, cache, dalvic, sd-ext (NOT SDCARD!!!)

I was setting my overclock with setcpu and it shut down my galaxy gio, and when it rebooted it just kept on the blue circle of cyanogen mod.
I already flashed stock and it would keep on something like the blue circle of cyanogen mod. I flashed cyanogenmod a couple of times too. Already partitioned my sd card again and i already wiped everything a couple of times too...
Someone help, i have readed like hundreds of posts and nothing seems to work
When i flashed stock i used a flashable cwm recovery, because odin dont detect my gio.
Flash stock rom and than go into stock recovery and wipe everything.
Hit thanks if I help

Try that. Wpe everithing includind Dalvik cache.
And it should work.

Try to flash the stock rom with odin, and when the infinite boot starts, enter in the recovery and wipe everything!
This should solve your problem :victory:

This file: signed_cwm-5.0.2.7-flashablezip-ext4only.zip (Flash from Recovery)
Select the one that have only ext4 reinstall the CWM and clean all again and wipe all including dalvik... will work after that.
Hope have help.

(Also im a newbie this was my first attempt at any flashing etc.)
installed signed_cwm-5.0.2.7-flashablezip-ext4only.zip
then installed Jelly Bread v5.0
was ok for a while and working but then i wanted to play with other ROMS (in this case i now wanted to try cm-10.1.4-GT-S5660-gio++.zip)
I enter recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe batt stats
Then install cm-10.1.4-GT-S5660-gio++.zip
Then it hung for 35mins at loading blue circle screen.
I then took battery out and enter recovery, and attempt to wipe data/fatory reset and it says:
--Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/stl13
Formatting /Cache...
Formatting /sd-ext...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Formatting /sdcard/ .android secure...
Data wipe complete

Anyone know what i can do to fix this please?
Thanks for any help in advance.

YOu have the right CWM (cwm-5.0.2.7-flashablezip-ext4only.zip)
Make wipe, and format system wipe dalvik cache.
And try again.

Cheers for reply, i cannot wipe date/factory reset nor wipe dalvik cache with any recovery.
when i try to wipe dalvik cache it just goes straight back to main menu
And when i try to wipe data it gives me the error:
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/stl13
I have started my own thread as not to highjack this one but im pretty sure we have the same problem.
Thanks again

Is strange because I have the same problem and solve with CWM only ext4. Try with the rfs r something like that.
Did you make all the steps right?
I really can't help any more I'm new in this too.
And I use a Nexus 4, the Gio is the girfriend phone and I start to change something there becsause is too slow and break all the time.
Now I install there the Light Orange V7 and it's really good...

i have tried flashing stock roms+recovery then go to CWM rfs and wipe and still get same errors
did you use cwm-5.0.2.7-flashablezip-ext4only?
Do you think its possible my /dev/block/stl13 could be physically damaged?

Yes I only use that CWM nothing more.
Maybe is damage. Becqau format he system I can do with any CWM onçy wipe the dalvik cache isn't possible.
So if you can do nothing for sure you have a hardware problema.
That happen's when your try put a custom ROM or the phone broken and after you try to solve it.

It will be. You can mount the phone in mass storage mode with "Mount USB storage" to copy the zip over after, however. Most people here use an external SD (sdcard1).

Also, you can try twrp 2.8.0.1 (the one that I use).
Head up to recovery -> Wipe -> Advanced wipe
From there you can chose what to wipe (except boot, this s**t cannot be wiped).
And if this doesnt help you, just remove your SD card, go to recovery -> wipe -> factory reset (wipes everything, not sure if wiping SD card data, but it's better to remove it first) and this should do your work.
It's always working for me, even when the ROM developer says "use the recommended recovery"
