Hi All,
I searched for this, and didn't see anything, so please forgive me if this has been covered before...
My son has an Incredible that was updated to Evervolv last month (I'd tell you the exact build, but...). The day before yesteday, it crashed with the error message saying process android.phone has stopped. The screen was unresponsive at that point, and the phone wouldn't shutdown by holding the power button down (tried holding it for over a minute, and nothing...). I pulled the battery and tried to restart the phone. Everything seemed to be booting normal, but he'd immediately get either the "process.android.phone has stopped" or "process.android.media has stopped" (or both in succession), and the phone would then freeze. Pulled the battery again and booted into recovery (CM ver. 5.0.2.0) to wipe cache and Dalvik cache, but am getting errors there as well:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I did try to wipe the cache and Dalvik cache, and it seemed to do that OK (at least, doing so didn't throw any other errors), but that didn't fix the bootloop problem. Next, tried to do a factory reset from recovery. Got the following results:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
Formatting /cache...
Formatting /datadata...
E:format_volume: no MID partition "datadata"
Formatting /sd-ext...
No app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext. (No problem -- no SD card installed)
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure...
Error mounting /sdcard/.android_secure!
Skipping format...
Data wipe complete.
Rebooted, and still stuck in bootloop...
So, any ideas on what I should try next to get this phone up and running again? I haven't run into this much trouble with this phone before.
Thanks, and Saludos!

probably need to charge it at this point. Format data (factory reset)
wipe cache and then dalvik and flash a different rom
Will try this evening and report back...

Ehh... No luck. Tried copying another ROM to an external sd card, and CWM won't mount the external SD card. Tried renaming the ROM UPDATE.ZIP and got this error:
Code:
E:unknown volume for path [SDCARD:update.zip]
E:can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Installation aborted.
any other ideas, or is this one a goner?
I'd try changing to the latest TWRP. The newer CWM never played well with my phone.
Will try that this evening. Need to configure ADB on my laptop, though, since I can't seem to mount emmc or external sd card right now.
Thanks for the advice.

Its all a guess on my end maybe your sd card is failing.... have you tried a different sd card make sure its fat32

Yep, tried two other SD cards with no luck. Can't get the phone to mount either of them, though they were freshly formatted. Also can't get ADB to see this phone to push anything to it. Gonna retire it, I guess...
Thanks to all for the recommendations!

Thanks. I've decided to retire this phone -- the failure to boot was really the last straw for it.

hi i am a noob and i downgraded from the crc1 to the rc29
and i get in the recovery menu E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
i fallowed the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538456&highlight=crc1
and got to this part "If you are coming from another Apps2SD ROM. In order to guarantee you won't have any issues with the install you should remove all directories starting with "app" and the dalvik-cache directory on your /system/sd (ext2/ext3) partition. If you backed up your whole SDcard, this shouldn't be a huge issue. - Yes you'll have to reinstall your apps. You can try to skip this step, but if the install fails, rinse, wash, repeat and don't skip this step." and did not understand what i needed to do
i tried to complete the guide and now all that i have is the E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log and i cant load any update.zip.
i really dont know what to do pls help
To resolve this error, you must wipe in the recovery mode (Alt+w) and then try installing
thanks i did it and it worked, but now i have a different problem
when i try to mount the g1 the pc doesn't recognizes the phone, what should i do?

Is this me doing it wrong or is there some bug? I'm able to install roms just not this one.
EDIT: i've tried the desireZ rom aswell and that failed. I also noticed the line "E:Can't mount SDEXT:" and tried an sd card with an ext3 partition but it then failed to mount the fat32 (/sdcard) partition but was able to mount the ext partiton (/sd-ext). From what I've been reading its because it doesn't have an ext partition, but as I said when I do it then doesn't mount the non-ext partition.
I too was having similar issues and found that re-partitioning and formatting the card did the trick. Also I had a 700mb partition before which I have increased to 1gb.

Had the same problem myself.I ended up putting a stock rom on to access market place, installed rom manager which I partitioned with then ran hd rom and it worked.Only problem I have now is its stuck in a boot loop lol and not sure how to fix it but hey good luck.
Cool. Got it to work, using stigslim's method of using ROM manager had a slight issue with it saying the Rom wasn't signed but I turned off the verification then it worked fine. No boot loop.did use the wrong SD card though. *Facepalm*
thanks
Can you tell me what procedure you went through in recovery, if I follow your tracks I might get rid of the restart problem I have.cheers

what did u do ?
Exact same error as I got yesterday.. had to restore my sd card and restore to previous state. I assume there's something causing this rom to fail.
I'm not new to this but seems if I have a problem wiping dalvik cache with Clockworkmod recovery.
Every time I try and select that option (recovery->advanced->wipe dalvik->then takes me to the screen asking if I want to do it and it gives me an error. Its a mounting error
E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcblk1p2
(Invalid argument)
or
E:Can't mount/dev/block/mmcblk1p2
(File exists)
when I press yes it takes me to main menu instantly. Usually (on my nexus) it would take a little while to wipe.
How do you guys wipe it, and do you get that error? If not, how do I fix it?
I have tried reinstalling recovery, fixing permissions, still gives me error.
Edit: included error, formatting and spelling
Edit 2: ive done more research, and it appears to be "a benign error, more or less referring to an SD-ext partition on your SD card for apps2sd. You don't have it formatted for it, so the recovery cannot find it and thus gives you that error. It should not effect the install, and should still clear dalvik."
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/8255-coming-from-sense-roms-stuck-at-htc-incredible-white-screen/
is this the case? is it still wiping my dalvik cache?
EDIT 3: SOLUTION ,some more digging around:

I just have the Rom Manager app take me into recovery. In recovery i scroll down to advance and wipe the dalvik cacah with no problem.
I also get this same error. I don't know why. I think it not completely wiping dalvik was the cause for my faulty restore from nandroid a few days ago. Anybody know a fix for this?
Thanks for the solution! Will try it and report back.

so ya, its not really a problem, it still wipes dalvik cache. That was all i was looking for. im not going to bother creating another partition on my sd card. But, you are welcome.
Hi,
I have an International HTC One X, completely stock and locked.
This morning I came to unlock my phone and it went straight to the homescreen (bypassed lockscreen) and the message ("Unfortunately wallpaper has stopped working.") Apex launcher has completely dissapeared, and softkeys are unresponsive.
I booted into recovery and it says:
E:Failed to mount /sdcard (no such file or directory)
Of course trying a factory reset from here doesn't work, flags the message:
Formatting /data..
E:Can't open /data/data/cwtemp/cwpkg.zip and so on.
My guess is the SD card is corrupt.
Any ideas?
Thanks
You could try this or another Mount SD card app to try to remount the SD card...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrtstudio.automount&feature=search_result
Aside from that I'm not much help, sorry.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give that a try!
Let me know how you get on :good:
Managed to get it mounted!
Backed up my data and then did an erase and factory reset to be on the safe side. Not sure what caused it in the first place, weird!
Thank you again.
Did it mount with that App?
Hello,
I changed LCD display on my i9195 phone, and after replacement, when I tried to put this phone on, it stucks on bootloop.
So, when i put phone on, it vibrate, logo Samsung Galaxy S4 mini appear and it goes off, 2 x vibrate and reset again.
I tried to flash 2 stock roms, but it didn´t helped.
Then, in CWM i found some interesting texts:
Wipe cache partition
--Wiping Cache..
Formating /cache
Cache wipe completed
Wipe data/factory reset
--Wiping data...
Formating /data
Error mounting /data
Skipping format...
Formatting /cache
Formatting /sd-ext...
Formatting /sd-card/ .android_secure!
Skipping format...
Data wipe completed.
CWM /advanced / show log
mount: mounting /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata on /data failed: Invalid argument
W: faild to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata (File exists)
When i try to "mount /data "
Error mounting /data
I also tried two times to "install" .pit file via odin, but it didn´t helped.
So, there is no /scdard and /data anymore! I can´t even try to install zip from /sdcard. Flash stock rom didn´t help. New .pit file didn´t help.
Could you please help me? Many thanks.
Simply flash a stock ROM, do not check "repartition"!!! No need of PIT file. After flashing process will be done phone will reboot and make a wipe by itself. Then it will reboot automatically. But, it won`t boot, and you`ll get a freezed "Samsung" text. Simply turn off the phone by long pushing of the power button/ or pull battery out. Then boot your phone to recovery and make a wipe/factory reset, then reboot your phone. Enjoy.

You could look into the s4 mini general forum for my unbrick thread I hope it helps report back
Sent from my unknown using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
djtyta : I tried this with 2 stock roms, and it didn´t work.
Aronuser: I found your unbrick topic before i wrote here, but it didn´t work as well.
Anyway, many thanks for response.
So, after 8 hours of scouting, what it could be. I flashed kernel and it works now.
But i found another problem. Touch display doesn´t work. Power button, volume button and bottom buttons(menu,home,back) works.
Any solutions? Many thanks.
