BUMP: I'm having the same problem, used gparted to repartition sdcard which allowed me to Mount USB storage. When i try to mount /sdcard card i receive
Code:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1)
(Invalid argument)
Error mounting SDCARD:!

Are you using setcpu? I had same message the other day when in clockwork. I had an idea to try to set speed back to stock and unchecked set on boot, rebooted in to clockwork and all was well. Not sure if the clockspeed and and set on boot has anything to do with it, but I had a feeling that it messed with backup/restore when writing/reading a custom speed specified to boot with. Anyway it worked for me on virtuous with 7.28 radio and kings bfs 5

Had the same issue... Formatted the SD card (using the phone, under settings/sd card) and it never happened again.

to follow this up, i was experiancing similar problems
like an idiot i ejected the SD card with the power on (bad idea) and had to format it
the card worked fine under my rom (miui) but when i booted into clockwork mod v4.something
i unmounted the SD card in the phone options and formatted it, after re mounting it the phone gave me a notification that the SD card was an unsupported format
so what i did was click that notification and format the card again
i booted into recovery and it worked, i hope this helps someone in the future

Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk error
I received a replacement Dinc from Verizon under the extended warranty. My problem is that the new phone won't backup or restore under CWM. I get a notice that "E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblkp1p (or mmcblk)
My old phone was rooted with the 2.3.4 version 4.06 GB stock rooted ROM. I made a nandroid backup with CWM recovery 5.0.0.6. So far all is good. The replacement phone with amoled screen came with GB 2.3.4. (unrooted and s-on.) Following the directions in Droid Forums I downgraded to 2.2, rooted using unrevoked3, turned s-off with unrevoked forever and reinstalled 2.3.4 version 4.06. All files found from links of XDA. (THANKS to all for the great instructions and files.)
But now on the new phone the nandroid backup and recovery from CWM won't work as I get the above error. II read that the sd card needs to be reformatted but when I put it back in the old phone, CWM works well without the error. Any suggestions?

I would first try to format your sdcard fat32, but dont put any of the old files back on yet. Then with the blank sdcard inserted try to run a backup and see if it works. If not try reflashing cwm thru hboot. Also make sure you have superuser and busybox installed. mmcbkk0p1 is the data partition, see if you can manually mount it thru recovery in the mounts and storage menu.

Its mmcblk1p1 he said. That isn't the data partition . I think it is sdcard. I think an sdcard format will do the trick.

[Q] unable to backup/flash zip in recovery

hi!
I have a defy, rooted with z4root and installed clockwork recovery from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875233
everything is fine, superuser is here, I can boot into recovery but when I want to do a nandroid backup or install zip from sd it says something like: "can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 or /dev/block/mmcblk0"
one more thing, when I try to access my sd card through astro file manager, first it says: "directory mnt/sdcard not found" and then it shows the content of the card....and at the top of the screen it should say /mnt/sdcard, on my phone it's just /sdcard...
what could be the issue, did I do something wrong when I rooted it, installed recovery?
faulty sd card?
is there a way to undo everything and try to do it all over again?
I've searched everywhere but didn't find any usable solution...
thank you

have you tried formatting your SD from phone-->setting-->...
might be faulty SD

that did the trick, thank you

TWRP Restore Failed ATT GS3

Flashed the latest stable Carbon rom yesterday and decided it wasn't for me so this morning I rebooted to TWRP and tried to run restore. The restore failed and the only error i see in the console is
Code:
E: error opening '/data/lost+found'
I went ahead and did the standard wipe (which also gave the same error, though it did not say failed) and rebooted, assuming it would just throw me back into carbon, but it got stuck in sort of a slow boot loop. I finally got back into recovery and now I'm at a bit of a loss. I saw only 2 suggestions, one being wipe /data and the other to flash back to stock with Odin. I'm not against wiping /data if someone could could either confirm that it would work or tell me if it's possible to backup some stuff from /data to my external sdcard or pc.
any advice would be appreciated, thanks
also sorry if this is the wrong place to post, I didn't see where else it would fit, says I can't post in the GS3 troubleshooting area.
ATT Galaxy S3
TWRP v2.6.0.0

fixed
Ok, I'm up and running again. I ended up formatting /data through twrp after I found out i could copy files over to external sd through its file manager.
so in case someone else runs into this:
assumes you have a twrp backup on the external sd
1. move important files with twrp's file manager to sd card
2. format /data
3. reboot recovery
3. standard wipe
4. restore backup from external
5. reboot system and cross fingers

Can't access data after 4.4 update

Hey guys, I upgraded to a 4.4 ROM from a 4.2 ROM. It looks like all of my previous internal SDcard data has been moved to /storage/emulated. How can I move this data to somewhere I can access it? Liquid Explorer file manager doesn't seem to be able to move the files to /sdcard1. And File Explorer from the app store can't even see these files. Titanium Backup and Gallery can't see any of the files either for the time being.
It looks like the permissions for sdcard0 (the new one created after flash) are drwx------ whereas the permissions for emulated (old data) are drwxrwx--x if that helps.

Also, will restoring my Nandroid for Android 4.2 mess up this data I can't access?
Edit: Tried to restore it and it keeps on failing at /data. Then it freezes. Fml
When I hit wipe data, it freezes as well.

Okay so CWM Recovery v6.0.4.5 still shows my internal data, for example if I hit "Choose zip from /sdcard" but I cannot restore my old Nandroid nor can I wipe data. Something is messed up with the /data/ partition. But my main issue right now is getting that data on the internal SDcard. Can someone help me get this data off the phone. It can access recovery just fine and it shows the files in recovery. When I mount the phone via USB, it only shows me stuff on my External SDcard.
Update: Slowly using adb pull to move all of the contents to my laptop. Now I need to figure out how to fix this mess and get a working device....
Tried to ODIN. Now it's hard bricked. No signs of life. QHSUSB_DLOAD

[Q] Unable to find files internal storage?

Hello Again, I have found a few threads with the same issue but something in the middle is different, this has happened on my Nexus 5 before, and it pissed me off because i never got it resolved.
I want to convert my HTC One M8 ATT to GPE later today, but first i'm on sense with NvROM.
The ROM isn't the issue since it's been working fine for a 2 weeks now, here is the story.
What i did-
Recovery (Wanted to try out CarbonROM)
Flashed LiquidSmooths kernel ontop of Carbon, got "Unfortunately phone has stopped".
Went to recovery again to attempt to flash liquidsmooth only.
E: Unable to mount /data
E: Unable to mount /system
E: Unable to mount /cache
E: Unable to mount /sdcard
E: Wiping /data /system /cache failed!
Now, i rebooted and those errors are non existent i can flash again.
But on LiquidSmooth , The Gallery can not find my Pictures.
The Music app can not find the music anymore.
Whenever i use a File Manager , magically my files are still there.
Anybody got ideas on this one? Thanks.
>Pics related<

Try to connect the phone to a PC, and use Device Manager to format the internal memory. Backup any personal data first, if needed (and if possible).

I've heard that , that causes the eMMc or internal storage to go into Read Only mode?

anyone correct me when i`m totally wrong here.
hasn't this something to do with the so called fused location of your sd-card ?
On my phone the locations of the sdcard is shown different then when i locate them trough recovery or shell.
In android the location is something like: /root/storage/sdcard (internal memory)
the real location in my case was shown in recovery as: /root/storage/emulated/0/
And i think because i had previously installed a cm11 based rom and kernel.
And when i completely wiped my phone for a newly rom, afterwards i still had all my data on my phone, because it didn't wipe the /emulated/0 location.
so all the files are still found with a file manager because the two location i mentioned before are fused. But your apps still has the old location in his settings somewhere..
You can try to do a media rescan so your phone search for new media.... But i believe that is also done when you reboot your phone.

I had that happen to me and I was able to fix it by using the "Format" option in TWRP recovery. That, of course, wipes everything on the device but everything will be mounted correctly and properly again.

Guys, I ended up fixing it.
TWRP format fixes it but i needed a backup. Also first attempt at formatting it on TWRP had issues. E:Can't format , E: Data isn't mounted.
Ended up just going ahead and doing the Google Play Edition Conversion and that fixed the whole issue, Thanks for your time!

so wait, aren't you going to tell us what you mean by it fixed the whole issue? were you able to back up the data first?
I'm having a slightly different (maybe similar) issue.. my at&T m8 was working fine on insertcoin (previously viper/venom) and i decided to try a very stock AT&T debloated rom.
forgot to flash the firmware first, so booted into fastboot, and was going to do that.. but it wouldn't work, gave me an error..
booted back into recovery (TWRP 2.7.0.2) and my internal storage WILL NOT MOUNT. hence, nothing works... I can see microSD files, I can attempt to flash things ,but, due to the internal "sd" (not my microsd, just using old fashioned android terminology) not mounting, every operation fails. interestingly, I can mount / (root partition) and it has the correct structure, and even some vestiges of my files.. when i say mount, i mean in recovery on the device.. not on a computer via USB.
any ideas? i'm stuck
I know i can probably format the /media/data blahblah partition (the internal storage) but I have very important photographs of my best friend's wedding and my children's recent visit to their grandparents'.. so i really really want to restore those files.. I do this kind of thing (file forensics) on OSX, windows, and some linux drives, all the time at work.. I just don't know how to access the storage on an android phone, in order to run the forensics scans etc.
thanks!!

Sorry, but what i did was different, and MIGHT factory reset your internal storage, i can't verify 100%.
You can do two things,
Either flash the RUU
for 4.4.3 STOCK HTC [ATT]
or Flash Google Play edition RUU and revert back to sense which will fix it too.
