What ROM do you use? I think the system file system is error. Try to format system and try to mount system.

Does the phone boot normally still?

Can you still make a nandroid backup? Ore use the dd and sow on command to backup the system par.?
Maybe check the pernission with root explorer? Do you still have root? I could change root with one of the ext4 roms.

Maclaw helped me, I formatted system and indtalled cm9

Can't mount block /dev/block/mmcblk0

Basically, every time I go to clockwork recovery and try to wipe data and cache, I get this error.
cant mount block /dev/block/mmcblk0
I have reformatted many times my sd, even with rom manager but with no luck.
Still get the same error.
From what I understand, if I flash a rom that supports aps2sd+ then I cant install any apps from market because it cannot mount my sd card.
You probably have an ext2 partition which clockwork can't handle. I had to convert mine to ext3 to be able to format it in recovery. Apps were still being saved there, though.

I had this problem while my ext was ext4. I had a ROM that was OK using ext4 but clockwork wouldn't back it up, so I reformated SD with ext3.

IS your phone not a PVT4 model by the way (info in the bootloader) and what partition table you use right now?
no its pvt3
ive not im using custom mounted its set at 175 5
Try to flash a partition table from alpharev.nl and see if it's working, then you can start over with your custom sizes.
spose i could flash the stock one.i wouldnt need to change bootloader would i?
Just format all partitions, fastboot flash an unpatched version of 2.5.0.7.
Ensure you.have the desired values, patch recovery, reboot recovery, format all again, nandroid restore, patch boot.

back up problem

While i making back up i got this error: "Error while making backup image of /sd-ext"
how can i solve this problem? or i can restore, but my apps on ext wont work?
(i use cm 9 aplha3 , and link2sd)
are you using cwm6? i have same problem here and looking for a way to turn back to cwm5...(and you can manually back up your sd-ext..it is located in internal storage data/sdext copy it to sd card and after restoring copy again to same place))
If you're using Link2SD/Data2SD then you must be having a separate EXT2/3/4 partition on your SD card. You can simply backup the files in that partition & put them back after reflashing.
If you have a linux system, then connect USB will show up both partitions, then you can copy them to a folder on your PC as a backup.
Its actually a good thing when you don't want a full restore too. Some things like Swype's personal dictionary can't be backed up, so after a fresh install, just copy these files on the EXT partition!

It's easy using CWM app. Run CWM, take the first option in the menu, confirm it's your device and it will reflash recovery 5.0.2.8. Before reflashing it already tells you that you've 5.0.2.8, but that's a mistake, if you reflash it downgrades your recovery and, at least in my device, the problem in sd-ext backup disappears.

Yea restoring will work but some of the apps will not appear or will not work properly, those are stored in sdext..run link2sd and mount partition after you can copy your backed up sd ext folder... i also turned back to cwm 5 but it still has error with sdext i dont know why..

I think you mean Rom Manager. It's a cwm app, but when you say cwm you're usually referring to the recovery app.
Edit : Try using titanium backup, I find it works better. I use cwm just to flash stuff.

I had the same problem in the past! I deleted my sd ext partition with minitool partition wizard after that I make a new sd ext partition and I switched to px recovery from Phiexz and the problem was fixed.

Ok i will try
Tnx
Ok so after formatting my sdcard,re-flashing a stock rom with odin,formatting to ext4 and installed CWM 5.0.2.7 ext4&rfs by phiexz the error was gone but after upgrading to CWM 5.0.2.8 by MMB Team the problem is still there
Any ideas
try to use px recovery 0.3.6 beta or cwm 5.0.2.6 / 5.0.2.7
these are the most stable recoverys i used
- Save everything you care from sdcard
- Delete all the partitions
- Re-create partition table (msdos)
- Create a first partition (fat32, primary, will be seen as sdcard)
- Create a second partition (ext4, primary, will be seen as sd-ext)
Questions?
