Whilst attempting to install MIUI 1.14 I got an error that the zip was invalid or something along those lines. I then rebooted but the Desire got stuck in a boot loop. After wiping the phone and formatting the SD card it booted fine, however the SD card is still not recognised, ADB doesn't work and the USB debugging icon keeps coming up as though it keeps getting reconnected. When I try to mount it in recovery, I get:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0 (no such file or directory)
and
E:Can't mount SDCARD:/nandroid/
Any help much appreciated.
Oh, and the memory card works fine on an old Hero I have lying around so the problem isn't there. Is there anyway I can restore it to stock over USB? It boots fine and is recognised in fastboot, as well as showing up in device manager.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
forget the hero
the problem IS the sdcard if recovery cannot mount it as well as the rom
these are two seperate os's
if the zip file was not intact then it would point to there being sdcard corruption and the bootloop will also happen due to faulty SD
If i were you i would put it in a card reader and use h2testw to check the integrity of the card
if that is successful then format the card from the device itself in settings>sdcard & storage
Thanks for the advice. I don't currently have a micro SD card reader (only an SD card one), although I can get one tomorrow fairly easily.
However, given I formatted the card from the Hero's recovery would it not make more sense to go straight to a new SD card? I might be able to borrow one to confirm, regardless. Oh, and how is the ADB issue likely to tie into all of this?

So today i rooted my desire, and tried installing the Sense 2.2 HD.
The installation failed and now i cant boot up, get stuck at the white screen with HTC logo. Connected SD card through USB in recovery mode, and formated it multiple times successful into all kinds of formats (fat16, 32, ext2, 3) in both windows and ubuntu.
Now when i try to run the update.zip or any rom file from recovery i get the following error
E:Cant mount /sdcard
(No such file or directory)
or some other problem
Any help would be nice
Moved to Q&A.
Take a look HERE. Hopefully this should sort you out.
I've did a wipe data/factory reset, is it still rooted after that?
Cant get this crap to work. It boots straight into Fastboot usb now. But it wont find the sd card. Its the stock sd with 4 gig. My pc finds it and it works
How do i get my phone to recognize the sd card?
Yes you should still be rooted, a wipe/factory reset won't unroot your handset.
All you need to do is the fastboot command to get your SD card recognised again. If this doesn't help, I'd try a new or different card.
Wow took awhile. Downloaded an RUU and went into fastboot and updated.
All sorted then?
Just ran into the weirdest of problems. I had a rooted desire with Latest Clockworkmod Recovery and Villainrom. I saw some roms that required i had AmonRa so i flashed that using unrevoked. I did'nt like amonra's recovery so i used rom manager to flash clockworkmod back. It wouldn't stick permenantly, i.e. on a hard boot it'd revert back to amon ra.
Today i did the same, then asked rom manager to backup the current rom. It rebooted, amonra applied the clockwordmod update... then clockworkmod recovery started.. then started backing up the rom, upon completion it just rebooted without asking and kept on rebooting on the HTC logo, did'nt go ahead from that. I took the battery out and then re inserted it.
What happened next is weird. I user wiped the phone (using amonra) it gave me an error
Formattting SDCARD:.android_secure...
E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(no such file or directory)
Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!
Skipping format...
Formatting CACHE:...
Skipping format of sd-ext
After this when the rom booted, the phone refused to recognise the sd card, and the charging light wouldn't turn on when i connected a usb cable OR the charger. I tried replacing another sd card that was working on my htc hero and it wasn't recognized either. I tried my orignal HTC Desire SD card (16 gb) in the hero and it showed a 14 gb unformatted partition on linux. when i tried mounting it , it mounted correctly. I immediately copied my data off the sdcard.
Please note that i had a 512 + 32 mb ext4/swap partition besides the rest of the fat32 partition which wasn't recognized in linux. After repartitioning the sd card i tried the sd card in the desire again but it's not working. Right now i can't mount or access any sd card in the desire, nor can i use adb to connect to the desire. I tried unrevoked to patch the clockworkmod recovery again but it doesn't recognise the phone at all. I'm thinking the rom is screwed up and i'm trying to patch another rom again on the phone but i can't since i can't access the sd card.
I'd also like to mention that using the amonra i tried repartitioning the sd card after this whole mess and it did'nt give me any error, so i'm thinking it did get to access the sd card.
Please any help would be appreaciated.
ok i just figured out that it's s-on on my phone now. So now i have a htc desire with amonRA recovery and S-on with Villainrom 1.0 installed on it. It's not showing usb debugging mode when i connect the data cable, nor is it accepting any sd card.
If possible can anyone tell me how i can :
1. Turn S-on without using usb debugging etc ?
2. Use unrevoked some other way
3. Unroot the phone to root it totally over again.
i had this problem the other day.
Check out this thread. worked for me. Read it through first so you know what your going to be doing.

THANKS ! I've finally got the sd card to be read but i'm wondering that post is for the legend, will that work on my desire ? i mean those image files etc ?
Thanks for the tip man, i googled the words (which i couldn't find to express my problem) i.e. bricked usb and found my solution for the desire here http://android.modaco.com/content/h...com/309939/usb-brick-rickrolled-b0rked-fixed/
I've been running TJs nonsense rom for a little while now and loved it. Someone posted about how they used another kernel on it with great results, so I tried to flash it. It got me stuck in a bootloop. So I put my sd card on my computer and downloaded the stock evo #15 kernel onto it, but now when I go on it won't mount the sd card! This is a problem because I can't even restore to my old backup. I'm currently without a phone until I can get this fixed, please help
EDIT: When I try to mount it it says "Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)"
Well.. I just kept trying the SD card over and over and it eventually mounted. So I flashed #15 and am good.
Hello all,
i have been around on the site for a while reading, learning, and rooting my DInc. I have SkyRaider 3.5 w/ stock kernal. Currently running CWM 2.5.0.5. I was going to dip into the realm of setting CPU settings for different functions. I DLed SetCPU from the market and installed. i figured this would be a good time to do a backup through CWM in case i eff something up. after the backup completed, i selected the "reboot system now"
Upon rebooting, it loaded into my lock screen with the stock background and clock, not the ones i had before the backup process. when i did the slide unlock, it would just go to an all white screen with the htc green logo in the middle, and all my buttons but the power button were useless. strange i thought.....so i pulled the battery and proceeded into the CWM again to restore to a previous backup. got into CWM just fine, but now i had 5 message lines at the bottom of the CWM screen:
E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(file exists)
E:Cant mount CACHE:recovery/command
E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
E:Cant mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
Then, i go into the backup and restore option, and select restore, it kicks me back to the main menu with 5 more messages:
E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 (or /dev/bloc
k/mmcblk1)
(No such file or directory)
E:Cant mount /sdcard
E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
E:Cant mount CACHE:recovery/log
E:Cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
(File exists)
I've tried doing a wipe data/factory reset, and it gives me a bunch of mounting errors and basically skips all format, then kicks me back to main menu in less than 3 seconds.
I've done a fair amount of research for this and can't find anything related to the DInc for this issue. Seen it on a few other devices (earlier droids) but not sure how much that info pertains to this device.
unfortunately i do not have a micro-sd card reader on my computer, so i have not tried re-flashing my ROM since i do not have a ROM on my SD card, not sure if it would be of any use since it sounds like my SD card is not mounting properly.
I will probably go out and buy a universal card reader (should come in handy) as well as a second SD card in case it happens to be the SD card that crapped out.
I figured I'd get this up here anyways to see if anyone can help.
Thanks so much for any advise or fixes you may be able to offer!

update
well, i managed to do a couple hboot updates and basically return my phone to the way it was when i got it from the store. i have no idea what caused it, but the original sd card still works, albeit reformatted, and the phone is functioning perfectly so far. I'm still curious to see if anyone had any ideas about what happened. sorry i can be of service to troubleshoot since i fixed it (the long way). my phone is too vital and i have travel coming up.
Thanks,
Trey
When I tethered my incredible to my pc I would get errors. I've had to actually run defrag on my sd card. I actually have several Micro sd readers but I was lazy and did this after tethering to my pc. Seems to have fixed the problem
So, I decided to try to go back to root last night, with the help of Preludedrew. rooted using unrevoked3 and updated to CWM 3. when it was all finished, it left me in CWM recovery and i had new E: errors:
E:Can't mount /dev/recovery/log
E:Can't open /dev/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /dev/recovery/last log ?
E:Can't open /dev/recovery/last log
when i would try to mount cache or sdcard, it would still fail, and when trying to load zip from sdcard, it would error in trying to mount sdcard.
with some more help from drew, we tried using adb shell to mount/access some partitions, and the mmcblk0p2 (i think) could not be found on the device.
thankfully the phone still booted this time, but i went into the phone settings under SD & storage...and the sdcard was there showing my 15GB of total/available space.
But....under the internal phone storage section, it said "unavailable" for both total space and available space.
so the only thing we could somewhat deduce, is that the internal phone memory has crapped out, thus when i RUU'd (?) back to stock, it could not find my phone internal storage so it just reassigned my sdcard to the 0p1 block, and where the sdcard should be in the 0p2 block there is nothing. Hence why cwm cant find anything related to my sdcard since its looking in the 0p2 block.
so now that i'm back to stock, i'll take it to the verizon store today and see what they'll do about it since the internal memory seems to be crap. i have insurance, so i dont think it will be a problem getting a new phone, unless they want to try to replace the internal memory, which is fine with me.
unless anyone has any other ideas?
sorry for the noobish verbage, i'm trying to remember what i all did at 1230 last night.
Thanks,
sorry for the quick reply, but i just had the idea to try mounting my device as disk storage, since it should come up as 2 drives (internal phone and sdcard) on my computer
both drives show up under my computer, sdcard access is fine, but when i try to access the other drive, i get "please insert a disk into drive G:"
and when i switch back to charge only, it will only say "preparing sd storage" and doesnt do "preparing phone storage" like i thought i remember it doing when it was still good.
I guess just another reaffirmation that the storage space is crap.
Hi all, this is my first post, so please be gentle with me.
I'm new to all this rooting and installing a custom ROM, but I've followed the RCMix S V2.0 tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074700) and has this great ROM running on my Desire for a week.
Earlier today, I turned off my phone and now when it reboots it's stuck on the Alpharev splash screen. If I go into recovery to try and re-install the ROM, it says it cannot mount the SD card. I've tried re-partioning the SD card using GParted, but still no luck.
Please tell me it's not completely broken! Any help gratefully received.
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried a different SD card, if you are using a2sd that can be pretty hard on substandard SD cards.
It does sound like the SD card has gone pop try erasing to default.....
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Just tried a different SD card, but still have the same problem :-(
On my screen, I have the following:
CWM-AlphaRev Recovert v2.5.1.8
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount /sdcard
I've had the same error with two different SD cards.
Also, I forgot to mention on my first post, I cannot talk to the phone through ADB because I can't get USB debugging enabled on the phone because it won't boot up properly.
I'm fearing the worst here, is there any hope?
I've managed to get my Desire up and running again. I got USB access back by following a guide elsewhere on here and that, in turn, allowed me to access the SD card, so I'm back up and running RCMix 2.3.3 Gingersense.
Luckily, I had everything backed up so only a couple of texts from today have been lost.
Phew!!!!
the question is r u still have ur stock rom backup on pc?
