Hello,
I have a PVT4 Desire with erasezize 40000
I am rootes and s-off
Recovery : Clockworkmod Alpharev Recovery 2.5.1.8
After i switch from Starburst Rom to a normal apps2sd+ rom, i got this:
E: Can´t mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (File exists)
Error everytime in Recovery.
This error comes before i have to confirm the wipe of the dalvik cache.
I unrooted the phone with a official RUU and rooted it again and did s-off again,
but the error still exists.
Stock Rom is working, recovery is working, but i am afraid of flashing a new rom
Please help
Thank you
Do you still have the ext partition? I believe this is the error that you get when there is no ext partition.
no, i don´t have a ext partition, because it is a rooted stock rom running now without apps2sd+
its a new sdcard fat 32
do you mean if i create a new ext partition on the sd card, the error disappers ??
Yes but i don't know if there is any point in doing that.
ok, i created a new ext 3 partition on the sd card, but the error still exists
I found the exact error in a different thread here.
They managed to solve it
dunno if its of ne help....but i had the same prob of "E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcbld0p2 (file exists)" with my HTC Desire with cynogen recovery mod and leedroid.
phone was getting stuck at boot screen. only recovery was working. i unmounted the SD card, deleted the ext3 partition through Disk Management in windows and mounted the card again. Now, android booted (but without A2SD) i downloaded ROM Manager and used the option "partition SD card" and like a miracle, the phone rebooted, partitioned my SD card, and rebooted back to android (this time WITH A2SD working!!!)
hope it gets as easy as this for u guys as well.
(P.S. : before A2SD, my internal space showed 92.4 mb, after A2SD started functioning, internal memory showed 130.2 mb)
PVT4 Desire's can't use CWM - they have to use AmonRA as highlighted in the stickied at the top of the General thread
stuck in bootloop, with same error in recovery
i have somehow managed to screw the device, it wont boot stuck at htc white screen, id really appreciate if you could help, i cant manage to get adb setup on my computer to list the connected devices maybe the driver issues
what i did to get into this was this:
1.i was using a custom rom from Auraxtsense 8.3 with Amon.RA recovery
2.i got into Rom Manager n install clockworkmod recovery just out of curiosity, the next reboot i was stuck on the htc screen
3.i can get into recovery n stuff, but i cannot mount my SD card, ive somehow managed to get my data out of the card by using it from another phone
steps tried:
1.i tried to go into fastboot n use a RUU to flash it but i got a Error 171 usb connection error
2.tried using Android fastboot commander but it fails to flash any type of file
i cannot understand the right process to go about things please help me, even if i can setup adb with the right drivers, access it from hboot or so push files make it stock then root n stuff again
formatted the sdcard totally to fat32 also n then tried via recovery to partition n all no luck

hey thanks, i did that plus i also needed to run this command that seemed to have fixed the issue
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
although i followed 2 threads
No-ADB-No-SD
&
Usb Brick Function
but jus used the command n formatted memory card n stuff worked not i couldnt move those 2 files mentioned here to the system since cat commands couldnt work
im still unsure device seems restored using my earlier rom from AuraxtSense with Data2SD
i still wonder if it completely fixed, n whether i should go ahead n create a goldcard, n like i need a guide to know what are the perfect things to do to keep as backup when such stuff happens

the error's gone, but problem exists
hey the error of the recovery not being able to access memory card is gone, but now when within the android OS the problem is when connected to the computer the charge sign or even the prompt to mount as disk drive does not show in the notification
in short i need to mount my memory card on the computer n the android OS cannot figure out how, is there somethin that may still be locked, i issued a command earlier from fastboot to get the earlier problem go
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
You have the USB brick issue. The misc partition gets corrupted.
If you search you will find the solution.

hey thanks, i tried here
i need some help
Code:
3. Get flash_image from the attached files below
Move this to /data/ , and flash the modified image using:
"/data/flash_image misc /data/mtd0.img"
You can move both mtd0.img and flash_image by putting it on your sdcard, and issueing the following command in a terminal emulator:
'cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image'
'cat /sdcard/mtd0.img > /data/mtd0.img'
You might have to do 'chmod u+x /data/flash_image' before you run the commands (or chmod 755 /data/flash_image)
4. Repeat step 3 a couple of times if it doesn't seem to work well.
5. All done! Reboot, you should have normal usb connectivity. Post your 'fastboot oem boot' log and intermediate steps if it fails.
i got the 2 files on my sdcard, im rooted but S-ON, i tried the 3 commands
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image
cat /sdcard/mtd0.img > /data/mtd0.img
chmod u+x /data/flash_image
in terminal emulator on phone, but when i press enter jus shows # again
then tried /data/flash_image misc /data/mtd0.img
says illegal instruction or somethin as an error
can you help me if im doin this rite? i browsed the /data/ folder via a ESFile Browser it seemed to be empty
I had this issue with my SD using, i solved it. Just partition your SD with 512mb for ext2 primary and the rest for fat32 WITH ALSO primary partition, I was using FAT32 Primary and EXT Logical, thats why i got the error =)
Hope it helps, and sorry for my bad english
hi guys, im also getting the following error... E:cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
i have searched for days now trying to find the solution, i see something about adb and command lines etc but i have no idea how to do that!
plus i see that it means that ineternal partitions are somehow messed up, but i only get this error with one of my sd cards.. my old one works fine. so surely it is a sd card problem,
i have so far tried partitoning with cwm recovery, in windows, using gparted and no luck.. as anyone found a definate solution yet?!
thanks

hey i had this problem a few weeks back
refer this thread just to get the update.zip file
1.format your SD card to FAT32, put update.zip on it
2.boot into fastboot, connect usb cord to phone n computer
to get into fastboot mode
press volume down + power held for a few seconds when phone is off
then press volume down once n enter fastboot
then connect the phone to the computer
3.on the computer run command prompt n browse to the director with android SDK n go into the tools folder
execute this command
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
4.once this is done, the SD card is then recognized by the recovery
5.now reboot go back into recovery from the same volume down+power sequence n then say flash zip from SD card
to get into recovery
vol down + power at start n then select recovery (having access to recovery is important)
then choose flash zip from sd n flash the file update.zip from your sd card
basically the fastboot command n format of the sd card should be fine to let you flash a new ROM zip file n get the phone started
but the issue is actually called a USB brick in which, you lose access to bluetooth, battery drains a lot, n there is no way to access mem card via usb on the computer its not recognized
hence i flashed this update file from that forum there, which describes the fix in detail

you need to partition your SD card first before installing that ROM.
how to partition
can you pls help
If you have latest CWM recovery then you must have an option there.
recovery>advanced>partition SD card.
select any size with 0 Swap size.
if you dont find that option then you need to flash latest recovery first.
Hello all,
I unlocked my phone and rooted it. I tried to instal miui ROM, succesful but my phone got stuck at the HTC intro screen. Eventually, nothing worked like whiping cache etc. So i completely recovered my phone from backup (clockwork) from before unlocking and rooting. NOTHING, it just kept hanging at the HTC intro screen. After that i could not find any solutions online and i completely formatted the SD out of despare
Now everything is gone, backup and folders on the SD, EVERYTHING.
I can still go to the HBOOT menu and Recovery menu. My computer does find HTC device.
Can anybody help??
hi
use this, will work 100 %

Enter the recovery and mount the sdcard as an usb mass storage device, copy the rom.zip to the phone and copy the boot.img file from inside the rom.zip to the fastboot folder on the pc. Then you put the phone in the bootloader and flash the boot.img file with fastboot commands, enter recovery and perform a full wipe (except sdcard ofcourse) ....wipe data,system,cache,dalvik cache !
Then install the rom.zip and reboot
If u can go to recovery, use mount usb storage to connect to pc and put your custom rom in sd. Unmount and put in bootloader and flash the boot.img first and then go to recovery again and flash your rom.

Hello,
i wanted to flash Cyanogenmod on my Sony Ericsson Xperia Play. If I want to install a zip from sdcard, Clockworkmod says can't mount /sdcard.
What's wrong?
Thank you!
More info. Is your bootloader unlock, are you on 2.3.4 firmware, is it the correct cm zip folder? Lots of information missing. Sorry cant help you.
The Firmware version has been 2.3.4 i think. The zip file was placed in the root of my sd card. I have done the following steps:
1. I have unlocked the bootloader
2. I have flashed the boot.img from the cyanogenmod zip file with fastboot.
3. Then in clockworkmod-based recovery I was not able to choose a zip file on my sd card because the message 'can't mount E:/sdcard appeared.
I have not rooted my phone before doing the steps, maybe this was the mistake?

Root has nothing to do with the problems your having. What concerns me is why your sd card isnt mounting when it already should.
I've successfully managed to flash 2 roms to my HTC one m8 phone in the past, but now it seems I have a problem: I'm trying to install a zipped rom stored on my 64gb micro sd card, using PhilzTouch 6.57.8 , but I can't get install a zip from sd-ext. the message: /storage/sdcard1: Idle-Unmounted keeps appearing. I also cannot reboot my phone into the previous rom as i cleaned it in preparation to install a new one. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have no idea what to do
Cant even mount sd-ext as I get 'E:Error mounting /sd-ext!'
Flash TWRP, mount storage, copy rom, flash rom......done
