You shold install amon ra recovery.
It has much more options than clockwork.
It can even fix sd card errors.
You can find img file using search.
Then install it using unrevoked custom recovery option.
Then go for installing a new rom
Or you can partician sd card easily with amon ra

Seems that you may have a PVT4 device. I agree with the above poster, look for a newer version of ClockworkMod that will work with AmonRa 2.0.1 or flash the AmonRa 2.0.1 image with unrEVOked recovery and try again.

I have just the same problem as you have!
Only that I didn't try to wipe, I tried to preform a backup (nandroid backup if I'm not wrong).
Does any one know how to fix that problem without flashing a new recovery image?
And if not, should I falsh Amon RA's recovery using the unlocker's method about flashing custom recoveries?

Not sure how to fix it but yeah, try Amon-Ra's recovery instead as a lot less seems to go wrong with it. I have used it in the past and it had not caused me any issues, although, i tend to stick with ClockworkMod just because fortunately enough for me, it has not caused any problems and i prefer the frequent updates.

Check your hboot screen if your pvt1 - 3 try reflashing stock ruu, it could just be a badly flashed misc partition, i had a simlar problem once

SAME PROBLEM.
Thanks for telling, I'll try AmonRa now

[Q] Problem with Clockwork

I just used Amon Ra recovery to create an ext4 partition on my sd. Went fine, but now I've switched back to Clockworkmod recovery and every time it starts/I go back to main menu I get this error:
"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)
That first line shows up as well whenever I've tried to wipe dalvik cache for the last few months.
This whole error shows up when I try to create a backup as well right when it starts to backup cache, then just stops. doesn't backup cache or ext partition and doesn't generate md5 sum.

I tried that fix twice, but I keep getting this:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 has unsupported feature<s>: extents gdt_checksum
e2sfck:Get a newer version of e2sfck!
and clockwork continues with the same errors at the main menu.
EDIT: Upon typing "e2fsck /dev/block/mmcblk0p2" in adb shell, I get the error "/sbin/sh: e2fsck: not found".

sounds like you trashed your internal EXT2 partitions.....I did the same with amon recovery..........here is the post I used to fix the situation:
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/6433-solved-messed-up-partitions-on-internal-storage/
after I did this procedure, I had to unroot back to stock, then unrevoked again.

WTH man that sucks. all just because of retarded Amon ra ext partitioning for an sd card.

I thought I was changing my sd card from ext2 to ext4, too...... and somehow ended up changing the internal to ext4........took a little research to get it fixed.

That's odd. I used it just the other day to partition my SD card with 512mb sd-ext, 32mb swap, and the rest as FAT32 and it worked flawlessly. Something that clockwork couldn't do, mind you.

I worked, perfectly, to do that for me............it went awry when I tried to change the partition from ext2 to ext4. The new clockwork has the ability to partition your sd card in it..........but now I am gun shy to try.
I knew clockwork has problems partitioning sd, so I stayed away from it. That's why I used Amon Ra to get it done. did partition sd, then did ext2 to ext3 then to ext4. Then flashed back to Clockwork and next thing I know this problem comes up.
I had this same problem last night. I fixed it by going into ROM manager and reflashing clockwork
I tried reflashing recoveries, but that didn't work. I went through the process that was posted above and it fixed it, although I didn't have to RUU back or anything. I just formatted everything on my phone, pushed the 6 files and ran the parted program, then all was fine. Did the partition on my sd again to ext4 and now it works

clockworkmod, at least 2.5.0.5, can't handle ext4 partitions.

I'm on 2.5.0.5 and have an ext4 (that works now) and it seems fine.

Interesting. When I created an sd-ext partition ext4 clockwork wouldn't recognize it, giving me the same errors above. Switching it to ext2 worked fine.

Same here; it's a bit of an obnoxious thing and I have not been able to yet pinpoint what the problem is.
Fresh HTC Desire, rooted with unrEVOked 3.32 and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7.
Interestingly enough, reflashing recovery with custom (CM 3.0.0.5) didn't get root running.
If you have a pvt4 desire with erase size 20000 or 40000 you need the modified CWM for your device. I think it is a sticky. Search the forum. I think is in general desire. I am writing from mobile so can't give you a link.

The MISC partition is where certain important things (such as USB mount settings (this is where USB Bricking occurs) and location settings) live. I'm not sure how this happened, but i destinctly remember 3.21 being pulled because it caused this exact problem. I'm not sure how you can proceed from here, perhaps someone more knowledgeable will be able to help.
Though, I also wonder. Why did you root twice?
I didn't know what else to do and I thought maybe another root will make it better. and I saw somewhere that v3.22 is the first version compatiable to HBOOT 0.93 (saw it too late...)
if I'll de-grade to 2.1 with HBOOT 0.83, will it help?

Motorola Defy Market Issue

Hello!
I had 3.4.2 stock ROM on my Defy and everything worked well.
My mate tried to install the older 2.51 stock ROM, it failed.
I've successfuly instelled the 3.4.2 back, but unfortunately my market does not work. When I try to install an app, it go to a downloading loop.
"Downloading... Paused... Downloading... Download unsuccessful."
It is only 3 seconds.
I've tried to do these things:
Flashed 3 different kind of 3.4.2 - Market does not work.
Flashed with 2.3.3 latest Stock ROM - Market does not work.
I've tried to delete market cache files, tried with different google account.
If anyone could help, please reply!
Thank you!
Have you wiped data/factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik cache before flashing the back the 3.4.2?
Yes, I've tried, but is it normal tthat in CWM Recovery cant mount things:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p24
(invalid argument)
E:Can't mount CACHE: recovery/command
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p24
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p24
When I try to wipe everything the same lines appear, but it says Wipe done!.
Here are the lines:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting DATA: ...
Formatting CACHE:...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p24
Error mounting /cache/!
Skipping format...
Formatting SDEXT:...
No app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext.
Formatting SDCARD:/.android_secure...
Data wipe complete.
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p24
It's pretty annoying.
Thanks for your reply

Use AmonRA instead of CWM.
Your phone is a PVT4 model probably. Or use newer version of CWM.
