hello guys
i have a galaxy note 8 that i didn't use for a month and when start it goes in boot loop. i didn't flash any ROM. i try to reset factory but ended with error. any one can help please.:crying:
I am in the exact same circumstance; and i've never rooted it. All of a sudden it began to boot loop. The thing is -- is that I have data on there that I really need to preserve. Is there any way that I can reach the data on the hard drive? I've done a wipe cache partition function.
I'm also receiving some of the following error messages (among others):
failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)
E: failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
can't mount '/data (Invalid argument)
Please advise if you're familiar.
Thanks!

So for some reason my tablet decided to reboot and it got stuck on the Google part of the restart animation.
I ended up going into recovery mode and now if I try to wipe the cache or do a factory reset, I am getting the error:
E: failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open cache/recovery/log
Has my device been bricked? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Stock ROM, not rooted, 4.2.2

See if anything in this thread helps you, in short, if the fastboot suggestion given by AndDiSa can't help you, then you may be looking at sending it to asus (or google if you got through them directly).
I had the similar problem with my tablet and I couldn't wipe any partition (but it was after flashing custom recovery or sth.). After reflashing stock ROM in fastboot mode this problem disappeared.
failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument) Issue
Hi, First Off I should state i'm still a bit of a noob with all this stuff...I'm currently experiencing trouble with my Samsung galxey note 2 GT-N7105
Its stuck in a boot loop and When I go in to recovery It comes up In red writing E:failed to mount /efs (invailed argument) I DID have CWM recovery But for some reason Its gone and Only comes up with the stock android system recovery.
I've tried everything I can think of.. I've done a factory reset with no luck, I've tried re-installing CWM via odin , I installed a stock rom via odin no luck and when I try connecting it to kies It recognizes that its plugged in but just keeps Saying "connecting"
I'm really stuck here and out of my depth.
thanks in advance.
A Friend gave me his galaxy s3 since he recently upgraded to a note 4, so naturally i wanted to wipe everything on it and i figured the fastest way would be me doing a factory rest. . so the phone does its thing then reboots into recovery with the image of the android guy on his back with a red cation thingy above him.
i get the following messages below the blue option menu thing that you scroll with using the volume rocker. :
E: failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
cant mount '/data' (invalid argument)
E: failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
and others like it all saying it cannot mount /data
i tired using kies to have an emergency firmware update but ask me for a code.
would be installing a custom recovery and downloading a custom rom fix this or not ?
please help
Hey guys, so my girlfriend's S4 mini won't turn on and its stuck on the Samsung booting logo. I did a hard reset, but with no luck, wiping the cache didn't help either. I flashed a stock rom with but that also didn't work. When i enter recovery mode this is what I get:

I have bad news for you. If none of those methods that you tried worked, it probably means you have a fried storage which is probably the cause of the Recovery not being able to mount the partitions as it cannot find any.

That could be one solution, however, What problem are you encountering while flashing a stock OS?

Have you tried to flash a custom recovery to see if that does the trick?
I flash a custom recovery but when i go in recovery mode it takes me to the stock recovery
So, I've got a Galaxy Tab S 10" (SM-T800X), its the retail demo version and I've been trying to remove the retail demo firmware, I can't factory reset the device because the option is greyed out. So far I've had no luck, I've tried using Odin to install a stock ROM but that doesn't do anything. I've tried going through recovery mode to wipe the device and it says that MDM doesn't allow factory reset. Tried running Odin a few times in case it just wasn't working the first time. I've now encountered a new problem where its stuck on the Samsung logo when I try to turn it on, even after running it through Odin, and whenever I boot it into recovery mode I get the message
E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
can't mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /data/log/recovery_lot.txt
E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /data/log/emmc_checksum_log.txt
I'm at a loss as to what I should do here, I don't use android and have never rooted a device so I've just been reading what I've found on the internet to attempt to solve it.
Anyone got any ideas what I should do now?

You need to install TWRP. Factory reset within TWRP, reboot to Download mode then install the stock firmware with odin.
