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:
did not match sized ' /system/csc/common/system/csc/others.xml ' (No data available)

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
Hi there !
I have an Ascend Mate(M1-U06) here which stopps booting, first it shows the Huawei logo, then a white android logo - thats all.
When i enter recovery mode it works, the phone shows me this line:
""""
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
ensure_path_mounted Failed
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
""""
Flashing or wiping in this menu fails.
Meanwhile I'm familiar with adb/fastboot.
Drivers are installed(Win10), phone is recognised, bootloader is unlocked.
I tried flashing several images, I tried flashing TWRP, everything worked well but nothing changed.
After flashing TWRP 2.6.3.3 I enter recovery mode and there is still stock recovery mode(3e).
What am I doing wrong, did i forget something ?
Can i use every TWRP Version for the mate ?
Tried to flash stock rom without success.
any ideas
thanks in advance

i've boot lock and usb debug not active.
some ideas?
tnx in advance and forgive my bad english

I know it's too late! but I have the same problem.

Me too, any news on the topic?
I don't have Droidboot any more but it still alive because I can plug it as cloverview. Now I need the debrick files. I can't find all the files in the firmware (zip/raw)!
