[HELP!] I can't mount data.

In Clockwork Recovery:
I get an error saying "cant mount dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (file exists)" when I try to wipe, mount, or advance restore the data partition.
In RA:
it says invalid argument
Mount data in adb says:
"mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /data failed: Invalid argument"
Is this a hardware problem with my memory.
I was useing CM 6.0.1 and the last thing i did was allow windows to format the internal memory when i plugged it it.
Will using an RUU help or brick?
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the help guys!
Anyways, I figured it out on my own. I was afraid of flashing an RUU when DATA cant be mounted, so i decided to restore the stock RECOVERY and turn S-ON so I could call Big Red and say their OTA jacked up my phone.
To do so, I downloaded a stock nandroid backup and started to advance restore the partitions I could (boot, system, cache). Just to see what happens I booted up the phone and to my surprise.. it worked properly. I still dont know what happened or why.
Oh, also , i used Amon Ra Recovery to format the internal storage before I started restoring via nandroid. Hope my little ordeal helps someone if they come across the same problem.

[Q] Can't mount SD card in recovery to flash a new rom, help!

Hi there,
I was about to flash a new rom on my Dinc, and right after I formatted /system, the sdcard became unable to mount and now I can't access the .zip for the new rom. I've tried flashing 3 versions of CWM as well as one of TWRP but none of them can access my SD card. I also reformatted it in my PC with no success. I currently don't have any operating system on it so all I can work with is hboot and recovery.
Can anyone help me fix this?

Did you format it fat32 with the pc? If the cards fine (can be used by pc and fat32) and recovery and hboot still cant find it, then id venture to say the sdcard slot is damaged or went out.
Using adb in recovery, you should be able to push a rom file to emmc and flash it from there.

I did format it FAT32, and the SD card is definitely fine. I don't think that the slot is the problem either because other things won't mount either.
Actually the only thing I can mount in recovery is /system, everything else is inaccessible. It was having mounting problems before which is why I decided to flash it with a new rom (was running Jellybean very poorly). I also tried flashing the original recovery, doing "clear storage" that way, and reflashing with CWM but it had no effect. During the storage wipe it said that /datadata doesn't even exist. It also shows errors that it can't mount the files /dev/block/mmcblk01 and /dev/blk/mmcblk0p2

This is what the log shows when I did the CLEAR STORAGE using the stock recovery
Restore factory NV setting...
Formatting DATA:...
E: format_root_device: can't find mtd partition "datadata"
Formatting EMMC:...
Formatting CACHE:...
Wipe ALL failed.
E:Can't mount DATADATA:recovery/log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1)
(No such file or directory)

The same thing happened to me long back. What I did was that I cleared data, cache, and dalvik cache... Worked for me... You can try but i wont take any responsibility

[Q] How to access external-sd with adb in recovery mode?

I can't seem to find/access my external sd card in adb shell when my phone is in recovery mode. Going to /sdcard gives me the internal location where CWM backups are kept. Nothing is listed in /external_sd and when I choose 'mount external sd' from the menu in clockworkmod I get an error in CWM. I need to access it because that's where I keep backups of files I'm messing with.

What format is the SD Card in? If its exFAT then CWM wont be able to recognize it. If its FAT or FAT32 then try this in adb shell
su
mount /external_sd

su shows up as an unrecognized command, oddly enough (even though it works when I'm not in recovery.) I've found another way to move the files around so I'm not going to worry about it.
My problem now is the framework-res.apk that I replaced some sounds in causes boot to get stuck on the end of the t-mobile animation. I'm finding threads all over the place about how to replace it, but if anyone has a guaranteed method for this device now I'd appreciate it.

[Q] HOX - SDCard Can't be mounted issue again.

Hi guys, I was trying to partitionate my sdcard to get a bigger /data space.
After a try, I decided to get me Sdcard back to previous state...
0.mounted usb to my pc.
1. formatted in fat32 format, as primary type with "minitool partition wizard ..."
3. umount and restart the phone, surprised my partition cannot be mounted yet and it's not recognized on my system.
So... Here comes the dispair... I erased all my phone stuff, format and delete all sort of things but /sdcard cannot be mounted...
After that I'm charging the phone right now on recovery mode, later I'm gonna try to install Ruu but I don't have the latest, only the previous... Is that any problem??
Tks guys!!
