[Q] ROM install fail - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

Hello there. I am new to Android so pretty much I don't know what to do. I have a Samsung Gio and a month ago I think I've installed update 2.3.6 without a problem through recovery mode and rooting. Yesterday I wanted to install a custom ROM with the appearence of a Sony Xperia. Downloaded, installed through recovery mode and it failed. After reboot , my samsung stays on the samsung logo and does nothing. I've tried the data reset and cache cleaner and nothing. It only shows me some errors in the rcovery mode like he couldn't mount from partition e. So I wanted to put back the samsung 2.3.6 update and it shows the error with (bad) - installatino aborted. I really don't know what to do to fix my phone back. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you a lot!

I had the same problem, you have to use a ext-formatter before flashing custom roms.
Stock uses the rfs filesystem, customs ext-4.

You should have updated it to 2.3.6 via Odin…, not via Recovery. So do it again.

I suggest you to use Odin. This guide is from GSIII, but the method is the same: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671969

can't mount data?, from stock recovery or CWM?
are you using a permanent CWM from merruk o a temporary CWM recovery?

Nope just clear your data if you flashing odin. So always prepare backup. Titaniumbackup more recomended than backup via meruk cwm recovery.
MAke sure you have installed kies or samsung usb drivers. And the process of kies by entering task manager in your pc or (ctrl+alt+del) and go to processes and find all the named Kies and end process. make sure also that you have closed or disabled firewall or antivirus . Coz it may cause to fail red color that happened to me
Thanks guys, worked!
The first time i got a boot loop, after i wiped data and cache, and flashed odin again
No prob .

Need help putting deodexed custom ROM on N7105XXDLL4 - installation stops prematurely

Hi
i figured out how to update my original firmware of 4.1.1 on my Note 2 N7105 LTE to 4.1.2 by downloading this tar.md5 (N7105XXDLL4_N7105TMHDLK8_TMH) through Odin
and it seemed to work because in "about device" it says im running 4.1.2 and it also seems to be a REALLY annoying European T-Mobile version because of the short and LOUD t-mobile video every single time i open and close my phone.
I also installed CWM-based Recovery v6.0.1.5-jb which works perfectly (thank god)
now when i tried to boot the deodexed rom for N7105XXDLL4 through recovery via sd card. everything seems fine i can choose all the options in sequence and when i get to the end it tries to install (percentage bar) but stops very quickly and reboots me to recovery mode...the first time i did that it forced me to restore from backup (because it wouldnt boot at all) and the second time i did it it made me reboot and the samsung logo appeared followed by "android is upgrading 0 to 162" I WAS SUPPPPER HAPPPPY!! but i was crossing my fingers...low and behold the phone did boot but all the fonts and everything else were EXTREMELY tiny and a message kept popping up saying SystemSU has closed or something..
I obviously restored back to t-mobile 4.1.2 (hungarian)
Is there something wrong im doing during the installation? should i try and upload it through odin or something instead of through my sd card??and how do you do that?? i mean it cant be the wrong deodexed because i chose the first one for xxdll4 and it the installation does boot on my phone..
i mean everything looks great except for the fact that it stops at the beginning of installation and reboots me to recovery prematurely....
ANY HELP???!!!! THANKS!!!

TWRP is other kind of recovery. Try a fredh install using it.

If you flash using odin then no your internal storage won't be affected, however to get it to boot up you might need to do a wipe data/factory reset from recovery (doesn't delete the photos/files on internal memory card) otherwise it will just bootloop. Are you able to see anything on the screen at all?

hi team xda developers. i am stuck in a loop with my note 2 N7100.
I did root successfully to install dn4 rom. then i tried installing dn4 rom with twrp 2.3, which was latest updated. but not successfull. it gave error status 7. then read on some forum that new version is needed, so I flashed twrp 2.7. This time the installation of rom went successfull. But after successfull installation when i click reboot, it boots and open twrp again. tried going back to 2.3, tried cwm. but Now it is booting only in recovery mode and I cannot go any further. Please help
I have also tried clearing cache after successfull rom installation

Right okay, well in that case I don't think you'd need to do a wipe, just try flashing it like that and see what happens.

You can use download mode and flash a stock rom and then try doing this whole procedure again. I believe you need to be on 4.3+ bootloader in order for it to work properly. Did you do a wipe data/factory reset before flashing the rom or not?
not done
Hi. Thanks for reply.
I flashed stock rom 4.4 from Samsung website. Then tried the whole thing again. It boots this time then displays new animated logo like note4. Plays the sound and then does not not further. I am now stuck on stock 4.4 rom

S4 mini i9190 recovery errors odin make pass but no changes

Hello i'm new here , I own a Samsung S4 mini i9190, recently it starts boot-loop, i haven't installed any roms before that, and it is not rooted
Here's what i tried so far :
Enter recovery by pressing the recovery buttons: erase data / wipe cache : it gives me no commands + error
i used Odin 3 for flashing stock firmwares (i tried 4 so far), it says pass, but soon i enter the recovery for wiping cache and data it goes the same error, and the bootloop starts again without any changes
i tried to update recovery, and soon it finished i enter the recovery for wiping data/cache the error appears and the boot-loop persists
Hope you can help , please i'm running out of options
I ask moderators to remove my ex-duplicate thread, I just found this S4 Section, Sorry !

I tried to install custom-twrp-3.0.3-0-serrano3gxx-STABLE-signed and many different twrps with different odin versions, but as soon as odin 3 finish, and I press the phone's buttons when it vibrates to enter the recovery, I find myself with the same recovery and the same errors; but still I install the stock rom after that twrp, and odin says Pass when nothing passes ! the bootloop and the recovery still in place, nothing ever change ! and I didn't done anything before all of these errors, no root no custom firmware nothing.
Please ! help !
I think I have the same problem here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-mini/help/boot-loop-samsung-gt-i9195-errors-t3596676
but still no solution. No matter what recovery I flash I get the same errors (can't mount, can't format...) and the same boot loop.
I can only flash original firmware and nothing else.
I don't know what to do...
Read somewhere that maybe a problem with the memory getting corrupted (hardware fault) but I don't know.

Hello Yes the recovery says : "no command" when starting it, and when doing erase data/wipe cache it says: "can't mount", "can't format" and finally it says "error" then it reboot in infinite boot-loop
I flashed 5 different firm-wares until now ! without change
Please Help ! tell us at least if it's a hardware failure or not
I don't get "no command" but I get "can't mount", "can't format"...the weird thing is that no matter what recovery i flash (cwm, stock or twrp) after restart I have the previous recovery, in my case CWM 6.05 or something....
Don't know what to do
Please Anyone Help !!

Any solution my friend?
I have the same problem. I think the reason is the dead emmc. I tried to make backup immediately after odin flash and got a error while reading of the system partition. Sometimes I got system mount error. It is a strange case, becouse odin does not notice about some errors while firmware writing. Maybe odin writes the system partition without errors check from emmc? And TWRP restores /system from a backup without problems, but reads the partition not always.
