(Problem) system uid's inconsistent - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey guys,just tried Tod flash the New codenameandroid Rom,but i geht a weird message after the reboot. Your system uid's are inconsistent.you need zog wipe your data partition unless your device will be unavailable. and just a button with i'm feeling lucky.tried Tod Format /data but it didnt help.
Also tried other Roms but same Problem.
After that i wanted Tod restore a backup via cwm but it stopped with: error restoring /data.
Could both relate To thr same issue?
I really dont know what to do now.
I googled the Problem but didnt find a real fix for that.
Hope someone has an idea.
Cheers

try mount /data in recovery, wipe data/factory reset, reflash rom.

Probably the cleanest solution HERE

Try flashing the factory image over fastboot. Make sure your device is unlocked, adb is installed on your computer, and your device is connected to your computer booted into fastboot mode. On the computer, load fastboot and type: fastboot erase system, then: fastboot erase data,and at last: fastboot erase cache. Then install the factory image by extracting it and running the flash-all script. If you still need help, see the google factory image webpage.

[Q] How do you format internal memory?

I know the formating option in cwm recovery but that only deletes the
data files it does not format the whole internal memory.
So how do you do this? i heard people just use oem lock
and oem unlock to relock the bootloaded and unlock it again since that seems
to wipe everything.
But i wanna know if theres legit command that does formatting of internal
storage for galaxy nexus?
best way is to use the fastboot commands
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem unlock

Yes. Reboot your device into fastboot and type the following:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase cache
Device is now wiped. You will need to flash a new ROM afterwards...
ive followed these steps and done all of the commands but now i cannot flash a rom.
im launched straight to fastboot, (as theres no rom) and it says no boot or recovery img.
i can get into CWM, but i see this.
E:Can't mount /sdcard/
any ideas anyone? think i need to look for a boot.img?

If you followed my steps above, you have effectively wiped your device (except the bootloader, radio and splash image).
You can't see /sdcard, because /sdcard is just a symlink to /data/media, which you just wiped.
You need to re-flash all the partitions that you just wiped. What ROM are you trying to flash, and how are you trying to flash it? If you are trying to flash a ROM in recovery and need /sdcard, you need to first flash the userdata partition with the stock userdata.img found in one of the images here.
great minds... i have already done that, went here http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html#yakju then flashed each .img one by one through nexus toolkit.
booted up into stock already. nice
thanks
I have the battery not charging issue. On top of that I can't fastboot my phone since it is not recognized by my PC. So how can I wipe the internal storage? I have only a certain amount of battery left. And I do not want to send all my private data to Samsung support.

Odin is a leaked Samsung tool. If you're suggesting such tool, search around for Heimdall, see if it supports galaxy nexus, if it does, suggest that.
Excuse for digging out an old thread.
Just wanted to check if there is a way to to format internal memory without loosing root?

As long as you don't format /system, you won't lose root.

Thanks. Is there a tool/app to do that please. Or I can just go about and delete
The reason I want to format is after having flashed 4.3( 3 different build) im no longer able to use instagram with an error 'unfortunately,Instagram has stopped' whereas all other things is working fine. I can't clear data/cache Instagram either.

Hi efrant, it seems that I have exactly the same issue: My evita was a bit slow so I performed a factory reset from the bootloader... stupid idea as it removed the OS (ROM) from my SD. I tried to push a ROM in the device, it said it was successful but there is still nothing on my SD card.
In the bootloader adb is not detecting my phone, fastboot is working though. Sideload is not working.
When i try to wipe anything from TRWP it says : it says "failed to mount 'sdcard' (invalid argument)"

I can't try your solution because I don't know how to flash system, userdata & cache (I know how to flash boot & recovery). Can you help me on this?

I found the solution : Plug the phone to the PC, open in TWRP recovery / click on mount, then the PC ask to format the device, format in fat32. Then copy the rom to the sdcard. Flash it with TWRP. Done!

[Q] [VERY STRANGE] Wipe data doesn't work anymore!

Hi everybody,
I'm getting into the new AOKP Milestone 4 from the Codename 1.5.0 - so I downloaded the files and get recovery (clockwork 5.5.0.2) to make the wipes and flash the new rom and gapps... the usual routine.
Wipe data - Wipe Cache - Wipe Dalvik - Flash AOKP - FLASH GAPPS - REBOOT
1st strange thing after that: the Old Franco Kernel bootlogo. And in stuck, obv.
Why the Franco bootlogo? Bah, re-wipe everything and go on...
Nothing, stuck on Franco. So I decided to re.wipe everything again and re install the Codename android, 1.5.0 - the same wich i was coming from - to get the phone work for tomorrow. And here we go for the biggest surprise.
EVERYTHING IS HOW I LEFT BEFORE THE WIPES WHEN I WAS ON CODENAME!!!!!
Same routine, flashed Codename and reboot. Franco logo and then no configuration wizard, no backups.. everything was EXACTLY like how i left before the first attempt!!! My apps, my homescreen, even my login account, like i have never attempt any wipe or flash!!!!
IT DOESN'T WIPE ANYTHING, ANYMORE!
I'm getting mad.. tried this ten times. It's like nothing is getting wiped!
P.s: clockwork is correctly installed.. i've tried TONS of roms on my gnexus, everything has ALWAYS worked fine. No errors during wiping, usuals script "wiping /data .... wiping /cache etc.." until "DONE". No error flashing the AOKP.
Help please..

Hey there,
mike, the dev from Android Revolution HD, has a super wipe script in his thread, on the first page, might want to try that one.
It works like flashing a ROM

You are not wiping correctly. You are having problems because the system and boot partitions were not wiped at all....

Already tried. Same results, it ends successfully the superwipe string.. and then no wipe at all!
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot -w (might wipe SD card)
or
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot update update.zip (for installing the rom)
Ok new infos.
From the log file the /data wipe seems to be undone due to the "filesystem is read only".
Any ideas?
Stupid question... but maybe check if the device is still rooted and unlocked correctly?
Maybe something messed up there...
these are signs that the internal hdd is getting screwed up... like the partition values... its a known issue for all samsung devices. the i9000 had it, the nexus s had it. they even have a lot of threads out there reporting issues abt it but no fix till now. i even had it with my nexus s (which is now a paperweight)
some fixed it with a simple wipe using oem lock n unlock, others fastboot wipe....
the most common symptom is that you can see a lot of files on your phone, but can neither delete them nor add anyting to the sdcard.
As anton2009 said, you should try wiping all the partitions, then reflash CWM, then flash your ROM/kernel.
Reboot into fastboot and type the following:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot erase userdata Note this will wipe/sdcard
fastboot erase cache
Then flash CWM and then ROM/kernel.

Guys, all of your data is stored on the userdata partition. Most ROMs I don't think flash that partition, so all the data still remains. As well, I don't think every ROM includes a kernel, so the boot partition is not erase either. Wiping in CWM does not wipe /sdcard (which is actually located on the userdata partition as /data/media).
Use what I had posted 2 posts up and it will certainly wipe.

My only question is about new rom flashing: erasing ALL datas even in the /sdcard how will I be able to flash new roms if there will be nothing more on the phone? Where will i get'em?
Will I need to flash again even the CWM?
Sorry for the stupid question..

You can still wipe userdata, boot into Android (obviously you can't do this if you wipe system), and download a rom from there. Otherwise you can download a rom onto your computer and then:
adb push /where/your/file/is/rom.zip /data/media/download
This will put the file from your computer to your download folder in your SD card. I'd recommend pulling any necessary files before you wipe userdata (such as music, pictures, etc) or you can pull the whole SD card (adb pull /data/media) and then cherry pick what you want to add back later.
SOLVED.
Wiped all with fastboot, pushed new rom with adb push and flash it.
Just to feel relaxed installed a couple of apps, gone back in recovery and tried to wipe data/cache/dalvick then re-flashed AOKP, everything is now working fine, the wipe erase all app and userdata now.
Hope this won't happen anymore.. thank you all..

I feel sooooo newbie, but.. how can I do that?
Backing up and restoring /sdcard is very time-consuming and usually unnecessary in these situations. It only takes a minute to fix the filesystem errors on /data and then you can wipe data as normal (in CWM, no need to use fastboot which also erases /sdcard). Just boot into CWM and in an adb shell:
Code:
e2fsck /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
Answer 'y' to everything if prompted. Done.

Try to lock the bootloder and if it fails, your phone is bricked...the emmc is broken.. try warranty

Bricked?

Im in desperate need of help.
My one X randomly locked up and on a hard reboot (held power button) it now no longer boots to CM, instead it boot loops.
On booting to recovery (CWM) I was presented with a black screen. So using fastboot I was able to flash TWRP 2.4.0.0 and successfully boot to it.
It opens with a password prompt to which I can click cancel and get to the options. This is where it complains things get complicated :/
If I try to wipe anything:
E: error unable to mount '/cache'
It will do the same with /data and /system.
adb sideload so far has failed me,
failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)'
It seems once one attempt fails the phone seems to go into some locked status until the battery is fully drained and recharged. Which makes everything so long and tedious to troubleshoot.
adb push cm.zip /sdcard returns an error. But this is all in vain as I have cm10.1 on the /sdcard but twrp fails to flash it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Ive been without internets at work for days now :crying:
bump.
Update your twrp to latest 2.7 or whatever its near the top in development thread. Then fastboot erase cache, flash boot image for desired ROM fastboot erase cache, boot to recovery flash ROM then gapps, wipe davlic and cache, enjoy..

Brilliant mate. There was an option in 2.7 to repair the partitions. I had to set /data back to ext4 (even though it said it already was) then repair the partition, and voila. Its all working again

Dead Device

I have an issue that I cannot for the life of me fix. Last night my wife’s phone received the OTA update and her phone would not restart after that. Total B.S. move on ASUS’s part not to pull that update knowing the issues people were having. But anyways, here’s the rundown. I can boot into bootloader mode but I cannot get into stock recovery. I can, through a certain method get into CWM recovery and I can see the external SD, but I get errors when I try to flash an update or another entire OS. I’ve tried to bypass signature verification also and still cannot get anything to install. ADB will not sideload because it does not find my device, but the method of getting into CWM recovery is done through ADB so I’m confused there. Never have I had such a tough time restoring a bricked device. Samsung, no problem. Huawei, no problem. This POS I’m about ready to throw in the pool and call it a day. Does anyone have any suggestions?

unpack updater-script
open unpacked updater-script with any text editor (I use Notepad++)
remove first line with "(!less_than_int..."
save file
put unpacked file back in archive overwriting it
put rom package on sdcard
flash it via recovery
btw, Updating IFWI takes a 10 or more minutes so wait and don't panic
I'll try that when I get home

@MikeyLee I had the same problem this morning, i spent a lot of time to fix this, i couldn't access the recovery, i tried to flash thetered recovery and do factory reset, flash again the rom, but nothing.
To fix the bootloop i just rebooted in fastboot mode, launced the adb from pc and format cache partition, thats all.
And the strange thing is that i didn't loose the data, Although I did the factory reset, that's mean maybe a corrupted cache partition that maked impossible to flash anything or do factory reset.

I've wiped cache multiple times. What steps did you go through?
Use the adb fastboot, command "fastboot erase cache"
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using Tapatalk
You need the stock recovery as the same version of the firmware you're sideloading, flash the recovery through fastboot.
I was finally able to restore everything. Stock recovery, OS etc… Here’s what I did.
Using ADB and following the procedures here http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/how-to-upgrade-cn-version-to-ww-t3101556 and using fastboot, flashed the recovery.img, boot.img and droidboot.img in that order. That gave me stock recovery back. Then I sideloaded with ADB the latest FULL firmware from here https://www.asus.com/support/Download/39/1/0/13/Lk0Sg1Ulh0Ph49Hl/32/
It was the only version that did not error out in some form or another. Everything is back to normal.

Corrupted cache partition

While updating the watch to Marshmallow, somehow I managed corrupted my cache partition. The watch is now stuck in a bootloop (always entering recovery). The stock recovery doesn't work anymore (black screen and some occasional text). I flashed TWRP and when checking the partition details, the cache partition is marked as 0mb. Trying to wipe or repair the partition fails.
Is it possible for someone to pull the cache image so that I can flash it in fastboot? I'm not sure if it will work, but I'm running out of ideas. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
We should call "boot loop" "lymbo" instead. I mean you are suck in an infinite loop,

Sounds like you might have to factory reset and let it rebuild the cache partition. But generally its a bad idea to share cache partitions from one device to another as it carries sensitive info about the user and device.

Favtory resetting from TWRP seemed to solve the problem! I had kept on wiping the partitions (data and cache) separately in advanced wipe instead of performing factory reset as I assumed that it was exactly the same, however as you mentiond, performing a factory reset rebuilds the cache partition.
Thanks!
