[Q] i9195 bootloop - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Seems like you got the partition tables messed up.
I'm no pro so I don't know what could be done.
Hey All, Thanks.
Fixed it some how.
First downloaded FOTA bricked. followed the steps.
Then tried to flash latest GB with his latest/old flash tool (linux). but that didn't work
tried older Flashtool windows Version 0.2.9.1 with firmware 4.0.A.2.368 (This was my rescue)
Finally phone booted

[Q] I've unmounted and reset and am now stuck. Help?

I've already looked through previous posts and there seems to be no avail.
From 4.1.2. stock build, UVDMD5, (I'm assuming, that's when I bought it)
I tried to flash 4.4 ROMS onto it, Both Gummy and Beanstalk with their respective Gapps.
It wouldn't work and I wiped and reset and odin'd in the original firmware UVDMD5, so it successfully led to the beginning phone setup ONCE.
Then, from stock, I figured why not root and flash the ROMS once more? and this time, the galaxy would not have it.
I odin'd myself after the roms failed once more, but now..
Now the phone is stuck at the SAMSUNG loading boot screen.
Everytime I odin in the UVDMD5 setup, it says it's successful but constantly stuck at the boot screen.
I can get myself into recovery but no options are available to me.
If I try to progress forward, the roms will not work and I realized what might've done me in.
Once the roms in the very first trials wouldn't work, I messed with the mounting to see if it would change anything(HUGE mistake I now realize)
I think I unmounted /data and /system and pretty much everything!!!
I'm in the stock recovery so I could pull .zips from the external SD and I've tried to put in Cyanogenmod Recovery so I could get to the mounting options,
but now everytime it says that signature verification failed.
Tl;dr: I'm an idiot and unmounted everything and now it's stuck at boot screen and odin doesn't work. PLS HELP!
ps: ignore the ageold signature
First flash the very latest Recovery with ODIN. You will need to put the phone in download mode to do that. Next, flash Root66 version of UVDMD5 via odin and then flash Rom of your choice via Recovery.
I've taken the root66 and finished odin'ing it in, but no success. It's still stuck on the SAMSUNG screen.
When I boot up to (stock) recovery, the first red messages that appear is
E:failed to mount /data
can't mount '/data' (invalid argument)
and when I go into >apply update from external storage and try to apply cyanogen latest recovery,
all it gives me is E:failed to verify whole-file storage.
There is no /data, what do I do?
Please flash CWM Recovery via Odin.
First of all, thanks for sticking with me for this long.
I successfully installed Clockwork with odin and I thought this would be the end, but
It successfully mounted /system and /external_sd but,
Error mounting /data!
Error mounting /sdcard!
I don't know what to do from here. Is there a simple fix?
Did you flash latest version of CWM ? If yes then try Factory Reset in the Recovery.
I did factory reset it:
. . wiping data . .
formatting /data . . .
Error mounting /data!
Skipping format . . .
Formatting /cache
Formatting /sd-ext
Formatting /sdcard/ .android_secure
Error mounting /sdcard/ .android_secure!
Skipping format . . .
Data Wipe Complete.
Is what shows up and still /data and /sdcard cannot be mounted. Anything else? I'm desperate.
Part 2: I tried moving past all that and tried to run the ROMS, but it goes on to tell me:
This package is for "d2tmo" devices; this is a "d2vzw"
what does that mean?
Can you manually mount SD Card in the Recovery ?
I'd not try any roms until this issue is resolved.
What do you mean by manually?
The external sd card can be mounted, I'm pretty sure it means that the internal sd can't be mounted.
How would I mount internal in recovery? the options says it can't mount /data and /sdcard
Try TWRP Recovery.

[Q] D-INC Won't Boot

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.

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.

[Help] /data partition empty/corrupted

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-I747). It was running fine on CM13 nightlies. One night I needed the phone for calculator (odd enough lol) and noticed it was turned off. I turned it back on. It seemed like it was just gonna boot like it usually does but I got a bootup message claiming that the /data partition is corrupted and needs to be reset to continue using the phone.
I followed the phones instructions and did the reset (I've had to factory reset before I really didn't care). It booted to TWRP (3.0.2-0) and started the factory reset. The log for the recovery showed many errors. Heres the log if I just boot into TWRP without doing anything:
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]Failed to mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.
Failed to mount '/data' (No such file or directory)[/COLOR]
[COLOR="red"]Unable to recreate /data/media folder.[/COLOR]
Updating partition details...
[COLOR="red"]Unable to mount '/data' (No such file or directory)[/COLOR]
...done
[COLOR="red"]Unable to mount storage
Failed to mount '/data' (No such file or directory)[/COLOR]
Full SELinux support is present.
Running boot script...
Done.
[COLOR="red"]Unable to mount /data/media/TWRP/.twrps[/COLOR]
MTP Enabled
[COLOR="red"]Failed to mount '/data' (No such file or directory)[/COLOR]
The same errors pop up when wiping the device too.
Here's what i've tried:
The corrupt data reset (didn't work)
Reinstalling a new copy of CM13 (didn't help)
I also have tried flashing stock images (AT&T) firmware. Did not work, the AT&T system says the /data partition is corrupted too and cannot do anything about it.
NOTE: The /data partition info in TWRP shows the size as 0MB!
I've posted for help on the cyanogenmod forums but no avail so far. I do not what to do next and need some suggestions.
Thanks.
Have you tried Odin to flash the stock firmware?

That's what I used to get the stock firmware on it in the first place...
I'm still learning how to mod and customise android so I completely missed this.
The fix was as simple as changing the filesystem into a different format on TWRP..
