If possible, I would do a backup of the data.ext4 using RZrecovery(maybe in the advanced backup mode or something(I am not using it)), than I would restore an old backup of your phone and maybe this is good enough.
Try to boot your phone. If it works you can try to restore the data.ext4 file in the restore mode of RZrecovery.
I haven't used RZrecovery to long so I am not sure if all this is possible.
If you don't have backup done with RZrecovery than you should find somebody with your firmware in this firmware and ask him kindly wheter he can make a backup of an factory resetted backup and upload it, so you can restore it using RZrecovery.
If everything does not work, than you could try flashing using ODIN. You should find your right firmware first, unless you are good with similar one.
ALL ON YOUR OWN RISK !!! This is only how I would do it.

Hey, don't mix up Download Mode and Recovery Mode !
Recovery Mode is RZrecovery for you.
Download Mode is looking different! And you use other buttons to Enter. Read the tutorial carefully.
I don't understand why you aren't trying to backup your data.ext4 and try to restore an backup. You don't have a backup or what is the reason you want to try ODIN right away.

I dunno how to backup data.ext4 , can u explain it ?

I just know how to do it with CWM, but I am afraid you wont be able to install CWM without being able to go to download mode. If you have backuped the device a data.ext4 should be included in the backup files. you can later try to restore it.
You have probably only done the backup on the internal sd card (not physical sd card) and don't have access to it.
Download mode is needed to flash via ODIN but not via RZrecovery.
You are the first case I am hearing who can't enter Download Mode after seeing the exclamation mark. Maybe try again, if it fails after a couple of tries, than try this.
Do a full wipe using RZrecovery(does not delete files on your internal and external sd card) than try to go to download mode or try to flash using RZrecovery again.

Yes, if you would be able to go to Download Mode, you could flash the stock recovery by using ODIN.
What is the current status ? Are you able to go to Download mode and pass the exclamation mark by pressing the Volume Up
button ?
Have you read my thread carefully ?

still cant go in Download Mode ........
should i use the hardware key reset ?? by pressing and hold vol up and down button , press and realease power/home button . i've read this method from other forums . Still not try it yet......

So if this is really the case and it is impossible to go to the download mode, the only possibility is to flash a firmware via RZrecovery.
Because:
ClockWordMod->need download mode or ADB Shell
Stock Recovery -> need Download Mode
Flash a stock ROM -> as far as I know always need Download Mode
The problem is also, RZrecovery isn't very stable (as far as I know) with backups restoring or backuping from/to external sd card, I am not even sure whether it is supported correctly. Well I had always issues. But honestly saying, I don't see any other possibility in your case.
So I have to admit I think there is a high possibility of bricking your device completly. That's way you have to make sure download mode is out of question!
So the only possibility what I see is to try to flash via RZrecovery.
I would do the following:
1. Do a backup of your current ROM (I think you have already done this)
2. Do a full wipe on RZ recovery
3. Put a custom ROM on your external sd card, which requires only CWM or RZrecovery to flash.
4. Restore the custom ROM from external sd card.
If also this fails, you can try to just do a full wipe, restart your device and hope it enters download mode by itself (it does it for me, but I can enter my download mode also manually).
Maybe you should wait for some other advices because I have only this make-or-break advice.
greets and good luck

That's not normal. If you would have waited, I would have adviced you to make a full wipe with the RZrecovery before flashing your device. Because flashing usually does not vanish old files, which may caused the error. Now you can only hope it is not softbricked.

help to solve"cant mount cache"problem/not booting

Hi,
Writing this to seek you help! My second phone, Galaxy grand duos (i9082). Suddenlty went dead and now struck on boot logo. I have tried flashing Cm/Stock roms through both recovery and Odin. But I am getting this error message
===
E: Can’t mount Cache/recovery
Or
E:failed to mount/cache (no such file or directory)
===
Can you please suggest is there anything I can try to revive the phone?
Ps: The stock rom files I have downloaded are having only one zip file than three to place in PDA/CSC/PHONE tabs of ODIN. As PIT file is not available separately, I am not able to try re-partion. With my limited knowledge, the problem is more on account of readability of drives/memory. Please suggest if I should try to download the stock firm ware again from different source to get PIT file and try again>
Thanks in advance for your help!!

You'll need to flash Stock firmware.
1. On your Computer, in Task Manager, kill all Kies related processes.
2. Open ODIN and put that single TAR file in PDA section. Others will be blank.
3. Make sure that Re-partition is NOT TICKED. A mistake here could make your device dead.
4. Flash
You should be good to go :good:
General rule :
a) if Firmware has only 1 file (it will be either tar or tar.md5) it will go in PDA. Others blank.
b) NEVER tick Re-partition option if you don't have pit file. Generally it is not required.
Let me say (for first time ever ) I AM TRYING TO HELP YOU BUT WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU DO TO YOUR DEVICE.
Good luck :good::laugh:

[Help] Galaxy w bricked

Hey guys
first , i installed this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30948064
first time it was normal and smooth , and installed Supercharger V6
before the phone was rebooting it self every 15 min maybe and goes to normal ,im not sure if its cuz of the cpu manager or V6 supercharger
(didn't overclock that much ) suddenly now when i turn on the phone it just shows the samsung logo (only) on and off ,etc....
i can enter the download mode , but can't go to recovery mode
although i flashed the phone with gb 2.3.6 , even with 2.3.5 but nothing worked
i really need some help asap .
Thanks , RedShift

maybe that ram on your handheld is full when u using custom rom, and then the system can't handle that,
and when you flash via odin maybe that file is corrupt,
Sorry for my bad english,

Do you have an sdcard in the phone? If so, take it out and try to go into recovery. See if that works. It happened to me once because of a stupid sdcard issue.
Also you might try taking out the battery and waiting a little while. Then try to get back at the recovery mode.

did you try reflashing cwm?

As long as the phone can go to DL mode you can still restore it....that is just soft bricked
At this point of time forget about stock recovery if you can restore it by flashing CWM then under storage wipe n format every single folder
Then flash back stock ROM n update it to the latest baseband / FW n start rooting it again n flash your preferred ROM
Best in future to do a backup first before you try something new unless you know what you are doing....

When i flash to clockwork mode or any rom
it flashs but when it finish (reboots) it just shows a blackscreen unless i remove the usb cable
it's weird cuz odin can recognize the phone
and shows samsung logo on and off ...
edit :
this is the Odin message when i flash

By reading this and seeing what Odin is displaying you it sounds a bit to me like you resized the partition where the ROM gets flashed to. Just if you have no clue what you did exactly before this happended, how can anybody else know how to revert this?

I also don´t remember. Last time I used Odin was when Arco and Ivedor got the camera working in CM9. So there I used it the last time to flash CWM and installed CM9.
However something got screwed up on his phone and as long we don´t know what exactly caused this, we also can´t tell if this can be fixed at all.

i know the reason
its because the Cwm Sd partition , silly me
now im gonna play dumb and send the phone to Samsung BCI
Do you guys think they will take too much ? :/
i wanna thank all the people who tried to help me , i will never forget that !

Note II GT-N7102 16GB Dual-Sim Soft-bricked Help (& files) needed

Symptoms:
1. Boot loop. GT-N7102 logo comes and the device reboots.
2. Can go to download mode. Model no. GT-N7102 is visible
3. Recovery mode-Android shows up for ~4 seconds and then phone reboots and goes into a boot-loop.
Was running N7102ZCUEOJ1_JB43_deodex_gapps_root_noknox_lite_by _neopunk88 (since March'16), when the phone suddenly decided to go into a boot-loop.
The phone was rooted. I had installed LSpeed the previous night and had set it to run in recommended mode.
What I have tried so far
1. Odin 3.07, 3.09 etc
2. stock recovery flash fails
2. tried to flash N7102ZCUEOJ1_N7102CHNEOJ1_N7102ZCUEML1_HOME.tar.md5 (last stock), but fails
3. After I had exhausted possibilities, tried the following pit files, one at a time, first from here and then here and then here along with the stock ROM. All pit files seem legit and the correct ones, but I have no way to verify. I have tried first without and then with re-partition option selected in Odin. Flash fails.
4. All drivers, USB ports and cable okay as I can flash my wife's S6.
Phone still going into download mode.
Odin fail modes
1. without pit file, while flashing either recovery or stock rom, Odil fails just after sboot.bin at NAND write-start.
2. with pit file and re-partition checked, Odin gets stuck in "get pit file for mapping"
3. with pit file but re-partition unchecked, Odin fails is the same as (1)
4. I have tried setting Odin compatibility to XP but it does not result in anything different. I haven't needed xp compatibility setting this while flashing anything before.
Please could I have some guidance on what options I have left and the files, if I am not using the correct ones?
My belief is that if I can get to the download mode, there has to be way to un-brick the phone..fingers crossed.
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: Fixed phone by replacing the motherboard from here. Everything working fine now.

still waiting for a response..

@jam_27 It is possible that eMMC got corrupted. (it's a hardware fail)
If I were you I would try to flash TWRP. http://www.twrp.me - For N7100, as it doesn't matter for recovery.

S4 Mini Bricked?

My sister's S4 mini suddenly died, I cannot open the smartphone nor go on Recovery or download mode.
I used a debrick.img found here on xda put on a externaSD and manage to enter the download mode, then i try to flash a stock rom but it got stuck during the process (i leave odin running for hours without any success).
After that, when i retry the process this is what i got on screen:

I try to flash different .pit file found here on xda for the i9195 but if i try to flash (using Odin 3.13 or even odin 1.85) it says
Re-Partition operation failed or There is no PIT partition.
Any other idea i can try?
Maybe another .pit file for i9195 and a firmware that work with it?
