BUMP: I'm having the same problem, used gparted to repartition sdcard which allowed me to Mount USB storage. When i try to mount /sdcard card i receive
Code:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1)
(Invalid argument)
Error mounting SDCARD:!

Are you using setcpu? I had same message the other day when in clockwork. I had an idea to try to set speed back to stock and unchecked set on boot, rebooted in to clockwork and all was well. Not sure if the clockspeed and and set on boot has anything to do with it, but I had a feeling that it messed with backup/restore when writing/reading a custom speed specified to boot with. Anyway it worked for me on virtuous with 7.28 radio and kings bfs 5

Had the same issue... Formatted the SD card (using the phone, under settings/sd card) and it never happened again.

to follow this up, i was experiancing similar problems
like an idiot i ejected the SD card with the power on (bad idea) and had to format it
the card worked fine under my rom (miui) but when i booted into clockwork mod v4.something
i unmounted the SD card in the phone options and formatted it, after re mounting it the phone gave me a notification that the SD card was an unsupported format
so what i did was click that notification and format the card again
i booted into recovery and it worked, i hope this helps someone in the future

So why are you posting in a Forum devoted to the HTC Droid Incredible?

Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk error
I received a replacement Dinc from Verizon under the extended warranty. My problem is that the new phone won't backup or restore under CWM. I get a notice that "E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblkp1p (or mmcblk)
My old phone was rooted with the 2.3.4 version 4.06 GB stock rooted ROM. I made a nandroid backup with CWM recovery 5.0.0.6. So far all is good. The replacement phone with amoled screen came with GB 2.3.4. (unrooted and s-on.) Following the directions in Droid Forums I downgraded to 2.2, rooted using unrevoked3, turned s-off with unrevoked forever and reinstalled 2.3.4 version 4.06. All files found from links of XDA. (THANKS to all for the great instructions and files.)
But now on the new phone the nandroid backup and recovery from CWM won't work as I get the above error. II read that the sd card needs to be reformatted but when I put it back in the old phone, CWM works well without the error. Any suggestions?

I would first try to format your sdcard fat32, but dont put any of the old files back on yet. Then with the blank sdcard inserted try to run a backup and see if it works. If not try reflashing cwm thru hboot. Also make sure you have superuser and busybox installed. mmcbkk0p1 is the data partition, see if you can manually mount it thru recovery in the mounts and storage menu.

Its mmcblk1p1 he said. That isn't the data partition . I think it is sdcard. I think an sdcard format will do the trick.

[Q] How screwed am I?

I only loaded a new rom on the incredible successfully once, last summer when the signed 2.2 rom came out early and I couldn't wait for the OTA.
I had this problem crop up that said my storage was full when I had gobs of space left on my internal storage and my sd card. Finally, after I did the factory reset option and still had the storage issue, I decided to try reflashing with a new rom because my phone was becoming unusable. I couldn't install apps, save contacts or even open text messages. My phone wouldn't even sync with Google.
I decided to try flashing with the redemption rom after reading some good things about it.
I managed to load it successfully, but I still had the storage error! argh!
After trying to reformat some things with the ClockworkMod Recovery partition menu, I tried to reload the redemption rom again. Something went wrong.
Now I get messages saying(on the ClockworkMod recovery screen):
_______
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(file exists)
E:Can't mount Cache:recovery/command
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(file exists)
E:Can't mount Cache:recovery/log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(file exists)
When I choose the option to install the redemption rom off my sd card in the clockworkmod, it fails after giving me similar error messages.
I'm stumped. Can anyone point me towards the right thread to deal with this? I can't boot to install any other software onto my phone. Practically everything I try gives me can't mount error messages.
I was hungry and in a hurry and never made a nandroid backup I HAVE tried reformatting the sd card, but I got no different results from that.
So am I A) totally screwed, B) somewhat screwed, or C) not screwed at all, just an idiot?
Help?

im in the same boat. i have no idea how to fix it. ive tried every fic i can find on google and NOTHING works. someone HALP

forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/6433-solved-messed-up-partitions-on-internal-storage/page__st__20 the site wont let me post a link, but this is what i used. i can now mount data and cache. working on booting now.

Have you tried a different SD card? Your SD card could have failed or become corrupt in some way.
I doubt you are totally messed up. You may need to get a brand new factory ROM (on your new SD Card) and start from there. Just Google it. As for an SD Card, there will be a few on sale Friday.
As for the full memory, I had that same problem, it's a cache issue with the HTC software (HTC Mail, Facebook, Peep and such). Once you get back up and running make sure you root (unrEVOked is working on a work around for the latest mid Nov OTA but there are other ways to root) and get a Cache Cleaner. It's not a permanent fix, but it does work.
Good luck!

Thanks for the response. I have yet to try Barbee's solution, but I did try another SD Card. I reformatted both cards to Fat32 and had the same error message on both. I'm going to go grab my phone and try Barbee's solution next.

it might be that version of CWM recovery is just retarded. what version are you on

I take no credit for this but try this its on Adrynalyne's blog http://adrynalyne.us/
"There have been a few cases where /cache has been corrupting on the DI."
"To fix this, you must be in clockwork recovery.
First, unmount cache from partitions menu.
Then, mount system from the same menu.
adb shell
system/bin/e2fsck -p /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
exit"
That should fix the issue you guys are having.

Thanks Barbee, I was able to unbrick with your solution! Pretty muh all of that was way over my head, but the instructions were clear and they worked. Now I just need to get that Redemption rom to work with the *228 option1 programming on the phone... that doesn't work now lol.

That's easy, go into settings sounds and turn the touch tones to long. This is common in custom roms.

what happened was you trashed your internal partitions using cwm partitioner......the method on cyanogen's forum shows how to properly reformat the internal partitions to ext2 and gets you back to having a usable phone.

Glad to hear it helped you. But all the credit goes to the guys in the link post. It was a little over my head too lol. I've used adb before but not for a life or death situation lol

Phone is f**ked! HELP!

Okay so i gave up half way in my attempt to get the data2sd and its seriously messed up my phone! I cant boot, and in recovery cant flash anything or mount anything as it says;
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
This means i cant restore my nandroid or do anything!
Ive tried flashing an RUU without success!
Any ideas?
I can access recovery, but thats about it!

It says it can't mount your sdcard...try formatting it.
Backup your nand backups from it first.

Might be worth using a PB99IMG.zip from an RUU to go back to stock and then try again

Is your recovery a permanent flash(unrevoked) or a temporary flash? If its a permanent flash, turn off your phone. Take out your SD Card and format it in a computer(FAT32), then it should be able to mount it. Then flash a ROM, get unrevoked again and flash Amon Ra's recovery. In there partition your SD Card(Its the easiest method IMO) and install a ROM with data2SD(Or install d2sd yourself, its very easy).

ive tried a different sd card so i dont think its that, im gonna try the PB99IMG thing..... do i just but it on the sd card and it will run from bootloader?

Yep, put it on the root of the SD card and turn on into HBOOT and it'll find the file and ask if you want to continue

I flashed it but not i just get a boot loop, i can access recovery but i cant apply update zip, i get the same error message.
Any ideas?!

So the PB99IMG.zip flashed - you don't do it through recovery, obviously - and now you're on a boot loop or just stuck at the HTC screen?

yeah pretty much, thing im gonna give cos i have insurance and get a new one! Thanks though!

Looks like you can't mount your SDcard? Fix it with the fastboot command described there.
Good luck!

[Q] Can't run Recovery, don't know where to begin

Basic info:
S-OFF
HBOOT-2.02.0000
RADIO-2.15.00.09.01
I've unlocked my Evo 4G using Unrevoked3, then ran UnrevokedForever. (was that dumb?)
After that, I tried to update to Cyanogen 7.0 using ROM Manager two days ago, and learned AFTERWARD it wasn't a very good idea, that it's not wiping cache and the dalvik cache etc. fully and this has burned many people. I got stuck in a boot loop (waited 30 minutes) and nothing. So I booted to the Clockwork recovery, and get the following errors:
Android system recovery <2e>
Use Volume key to highlight;
click power key to select.
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
------------------------------------
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(I/O error)
...repeats 10 times then:
e:Can't find /sdcard/update.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Doing research this usually means the Micro SD card or the slot itself is boned.
So I've removed the Micro SD, and carefully cleaned and reseated everything. Now I get:
Android system recovery <2e>
Use Volume key to highlight;
click power key to select.
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
------------------------------------
E:Cant open /cache/recovery/command
-- Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory)
E:signature verification failed

So it SEEMS I might have fixed the SD card, and it's now reading, but the backup is gone?
Just letting it boot, (and re-trying several times) it now sits at the white EVO 4G screen and goes no father.
I don't have an SD card reader or micro-adapter at this time. So I've been trying to push an update or flash through fastboot.exe connected over USB.
I've been reading the stickied threads, getting fastboot, and ADB (says device not found, but fastboot finds the Evo just fine...) with the Android SDK up and installed on my Win7 x64 PC for the past two days. I don't even know where to start anymore, I'm not even sure if I'm trying to fix the right things. I just need a working phone at this point, and hopefully haven't lost all my Titanium Backup info on the SD Card either.
I hate my first post being a question like this, I've been searching and reading until I'm blue, I just don't know where to begin.

It's ok, you're not dead in the water. Clockwork Recovery, in MY opinion, is just not reliable. Nor is ROM Manager. I've seen too many people have problems. If I were you, I would get the pc36img for Amon RA, which I have attached here.
Make sure it is named PC36IMG.zip (all you have to do is delete everything in the name between PC36IMG and .zip
Exactly like that, and put it on the root of your SD Card, then boot into the bootloader. (Vol down/Power til boot loader appears)
When it does it's scan, it will find the file and ask you to update. Click to yes and let it flash it, then the phone reboots back to bootloader.
Now, it'll scan the file again and ask you to update, but say no this time, then go to recovery.
If you do boot up into recovery, and you should, go to wipe and wipe EVERYTHING, except the SD Card. You have a good start by doing the SD Card already. Do a factory reset/User data, and then each sub category, except the SD card. Then, hit return and flash and flash your ROM. Now, you probably know, it will take some extra time to boot up, but you should be OK.

Thanks for replying, I KNOW I'm in one of the "asked a thousand times already" situations, I'm not just figuring out which one it is.
I've been trying to get Amon_RA recovery loaded. I could tell this was the best (too late), but am still struggling to push it to the root of the SD card so the loader will pick it up.
Now I'm thinking I can't push a pc36img.zip file to the root of the SD card with fastboot.exe correct? (I know I need to rename it to exactly the right name, saw that messing up lots of folks in my endless searching.)
I'm trying to push it with ADB, but I haven't gotten that to connect yet. I might not have the right USB drivers that ADB likes, and I can't get it to recognize the device, or open up the shell. I installed HTC Sync which is supposed to get ADB to connect, but no dice. Did the USB Debugging mode get blown away when I manually cleared cache and user settings? I'd thought that the Loader screen would have it, but I'm not so sure.
If I can't get ADB working within the next hour, I'm going to swing through Office Depot and get a micro SD card/USB reader or the little shell that makes it regular SD-sized and stuff the file on that way if I have to.

You don'[t have a way to just copy it to your SD Card? A card reader or a different phone you can put the SD Card in for a minute and connect to your computer.
You don't need ADB, but if you can connect via ADB, just copy the file to your sd card.

Yeah, I just got home from work, and picked up a cheapie USB/Micro-SD adapter on the way.
I'm loading the .zip right now.
ETA: Well, that's fixed. SOOOOOO much better than Clockwork.
ETA #2: I wiped/erased everything except for the SD Card....
Now what did I screw up? I got Cyanogen 7.0.3.1 (newest listed stable release) and copied it onto the SD root as PC36IMG.ZIP It recognized it, read it, and then I went into Ammon_RA recovery, and chose the option to flash a zip from SD card, and it spent time loading, prompted me to reboot, then it rebooted and still sits at the white HTC EVO 4G screen. I let it sit for 15 minutes.
ETA #3: Re-loaded everything once more and it's now working great!

The cyangen is a ROM, you just go to flash zip from sd card or whatever it's called,. browse to the rom and flash it. You don't have to rename that. Just go back to recovery, wipe everything again and then flash the ROM that way

HTC Incredible stuck on white screen.

Since I didn't have a sdcard, I changed vold.fstab so it would think emmc is an sdcard. When I tried to reverting the changes, I screwed up, and both my storage options said unavailable. So I tried to fix it by re flashing and what not, and that messed up my phone because I couldn't access emmc still and I didn't have an sdcard. So now I can only access hboot and fastboot. If I don't hold volume it gets stuck at the white htc incredible screen. If i try to use clockworkMod recovery 5.0.2 it says
E: Invalid command argument<br/>
E:Cna't mount /cache/recovery/log<br/>
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log<br/>
E:can't mount /cache/recover/last_log<br/>
etc etc..
I've tried RUU but it said it can't update it.
I don't have a sd card, but I've updated it by putting an update on emmc, I can't get to it though! Is there a way I can flash a stock rom with fastboot from my computer? I DLed plenty of stock roms. I really need my phone back because I have to sell this laptop and I won't have any Internet access without it. I tried messing with fastboot flashall but I don't want to mess it up anyfurther.
Any suggestions anyone? I'm in desperate need of help.

After doing more research, I need to use sdparted to get all my partitions back in order.
In cwm I can mount /emmc and I'm thinking I can use adb push to place a zip there and run an update from cwm.
The thing is, using adb devices, the phone serial doesn't show up.
I don't think I can get to it without enabling usb debugging (I've used eclipse so the drivers are installed already).
I'm running out of options here. I think getting an sdk card is the only option I have left now. which will take 3 days to get
here

i have installed roms from EMMC. as long as CWM can see the contents it should be no different than installing from SD Card. of course your issue seems to be how to get files onto the EMMC without a booting OS.
so in that case, you should invest a dollar and just buy an SD Card.
