E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
Can anybody help me?

Try whith Amon-RA Recovery R5, is much better
I also use to have problems with clockworwmod, but R5 works perfectly.

It's easy, with unrevoked tool, selecting the .img file before conecting the phone.

hi i am a noob and i downgraded from the crc1 to the rc29
and i get in the recovery menu E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
i fallowed the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538456&highlight=crc1
and got to this part "If you are coming from another Apps2SD ROM. In order to guarantee you won't have any issues with the install you should remove all directories starting with "app" and the dalvik-cache directory on your /system/sd (ext2/ext3) partition. If you backed up your whole SDcard, this shouldn't be a huge issue. - Yes you'll have to reinstall your apps. You can try to skip this step, but if the install fails, rinse, wash, repeat and don't skip this step." and did not understand what i needed to do
i tried to complete the guide and now all that i have is the E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log and i cant load any update.zip.
i really dont know what to do pls help
To resolve this error, you must wipe in the recovery mode (Alt+w) and then try installing
thanks i did it and it worked, but now i have a different problem

HI All,
I have a problem, that I cannot reset my Desire to factory setting.
after I wipe in Recovery mode,
and flash a new ROM, fm LeeDroid to Opendesire 2.3a
the Apps still exist,
Can any one know How Can I flash to a clean Opendesire ROM.
thanks!
Chances are you are using legacy A2SD/A2SD+. If you do not wipe your EXT partition, all your apps will still be there when you wipe.

Dave

tks Dave,
Yes, I do using A2SD, and I have wipe the ext partition before.
when I try to do
"Wipe data/factory reset" in ClockworkMod Recovery v2.0.2.4
error msg:
E: Can't Mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(Invalid argument)
Error Mounting /sd-ext/!
Skipping format...
Should I format my SD card?
thanks
That's quite an old version of ClockworkMod recovery. I'd be inclined to try a later version or AmonRa's recovery.
Regards,
Dave
Appreciate your kindly reply, I will try it.

Can it mount when you're not in recovery? (Aka, can you mount it as a USB while your phone is on normally?)

Our device does not have an sd-ext partition. Use the latest TWRP 2.6 and erase system, data, cache, and dalvik cache.
Sent from my One V using xda premium
Ohh, I have been using TWRP 2.3
Thanks! I'll try flashing TWRP 2.6
After trying to wipe it in TWRP it says unable to wipe sd/ext
Sd_ext is just a partition on you sdcard that does not exist unless you have created one.
It's just stating could not format sd_ext because it's not there
Do not fret my friend, it still factory resets like it's supposed to
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:

your problem is really like I have before.
the only way is install with only ext4. The CWM is in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421650
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.

then installed Jelly Bread v5.0

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

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.
