[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rohitdahiya:
My i9000 went to bootloop and stuck on repeatition of galaxy s logo and after flashing many roms from odin it shows error sothing like (not exactly remember) the below given :

E:failed to mount /data (No such file or directory)

--Copying media files...

E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)

E:copy_cache_media:Can't mount /sdcard

Formatting /cache

and I never got out of boot loop untill I downloaded the XXJVU modified files from the below thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1893354

The ROM files in the above link are the only way available right now to flash for me. I can't even root this.

In this thread, sesetxu, a user of xda, modified the zimage and repacked XXJVU which made my phone turn on (I partitioned my microSD card to make this work). But neither I am able to root my phone, nor my camera works ("turn off usb storage to use camera") and also gallery is not usable as it shows("no SD card detected").When I go to 'SD card and phone storage' under 'settings' in my i9000, only system memory is available (showing around 1.87GB) while usb storage and SD card are showing unavailable.

I have read many threads regarding this, most of them indicate to edit vold.fstab file. But as my phone is

not rooted

, I can't edit it.

Also I am not able to mount my SD card by flashing any recovery and not able to use it in recovey.

Can you please help me bring out of this problem?

Help will be appreciated If someone make a Rooted kernel of any rom, which install OS directly on the SD card and makes my external SD card accessible (Coz I know my internal SD is dead)

THANKS in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] combathero:
I got the same problem as yours but the difference is I'm getting "E:format_volume:rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2" instead you've mentioned. The only solution I did is to manually take out the internal sdcard by disassembling the phone and dismount the chip with Sandisk printed on it. Then use an sdcard at least 8gb, format it using linux, first primary partition is fat32, second primary partition is reiserfs. Mount the external sdcard, flash stock gb rom then root it.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LDevil81:
Short guide how to recover your I9000 with dead eMMC:

1. Create two FAT32 partitions on SD card, the first one will be used as internal sd card, the second one will be used as internal phone memory (/data)

2. Download XXJVT ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1102881

3. Use this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1152740 to add root acces, but stop after steep 5.

4. Find all occurences of mmcblk0 in extracted text files (do not touch binaries)

5. Replace mmcblk0 with mmcblk1, so your /sdcard will be mapped to first partion on device mmcblk1 and your /data will be mapped to second partiotion on mmcblk1.

6. Recompile and tar kernel.

7. Flash XXJVT ROM using Odin (512 layout, propably repartitioning is needed)

8. Reboot phone

9. If you encounter Can't mount /dev/block/stl10 error after reboot, follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2184403

10. Flash your custom kernel using odin (PDA)

11. Enter bootloader and wipe all data/factory reset

12. After reboot your phone will have /data partition mounted on SDCard, and will be rooted, so you will be able to install Superuser and root browser from market.

13. The last step is to change vold.fstab to mount /sdcard from first partition from s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host_mmc2 and to mount external_sd from third partition from s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host_mmc2. It's not a mistake, we have to mount external_sd from not existing partition/device.

14. Now your phone should show that there is no SDCard inserterd, your internal usb memory should be equal to size of your first partion, and your phone memory should be equal to size of your second partition.

WARNING: It's not a step-by-step guide, but only some more or less general hints.

Sorry, I find this post after hours of search, which kernel I've to download if I'm from Italy!? I know the european, but there is a lot with "XXJVT" and I'm a little bit confused. I've a dead i9000 with faulty eMMC!!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LDevil81:
I use this one: "XXJVT/XXJVT/OXAJVT/Sbl (MultiCSC): Download (148 MB) (Build date: Thu Sep 29 11:43:43 KST 2011)

(MultiCSC: CPW, DBT, KOR, XEO, XEU)" because I need Polish language support. Unfortunatelly I don't know which one will be best for Italy.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
just wondering, first post you say, gallery , camera etc unusable, here you say its fixed or did sesetxu not guide you to solve it? Also why not include link here for your ROM?

Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.​

I tried hard as sesetxu guided but being a noob, I failed and could not have gone past the camera and gallery issue. I almost gave up. Later on [MENTION=4479857]rxxxni[/MENTION] helped me by giving his cooked ROM and I succeeded. His solution is in the link below in Spanish language:

Hello All,

I followed the link Rohit provided in Spanish. I was able to get the Rom V 1.3.2 going on my i9000.

Due to language barries I failed to move to CM10 or if possible, to the latest nighly builds of CM11.

Could anybody point me to some advice in english how to migrate to CM11?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rohitdahiya:
I sold my i9000 long time ago. But if you stil wanna install CM10/CM11 you have to just edit the vold.fstab file in root of your storage. You can find the instructions in the same forum or search on xda. However, You can open the spanish page in Google chrome and translate in english and you can understand easily.

Here is the translated page for you. Dont forget to hit the thanks button(only if you feel I have helped you)

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] valsimoT:
Hello, please if anyone knows the solution to my problem:

I bought a Tmobile MDA from a person who just flashed it with a Tmobile demo rom v4.21

MDA works normally when on craddle (charger) but when on battery it goes dead after i press power button... So, when I take it off the craddle it works normally on battery (battery is supposed to be brand new) but once turned off, the screen blinks once and MDA is dead.

When I just put it on craddle for a second i can turn it on and it works normally again...even on battery...

He is out of town and will be back on friday. He sais that this is a software problem and will be solved by flashing with XDA developer ROM.

Could that be true? The battery seems to bi OK until I press the power button...

I tried flashing ROM via USB but I get error 011 - execute remote communication program error....

Please help...

Thx in advance

valsimoT
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] hoanghon:
hi. this is very strange to me. The software doesn't cause this problem. my be you look around the connector if the one of the bin is bent or broken. I am not sure but if you think the software problem, go ahead and upgrade the rom.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] valsimoT:
Thanxs for reply.

but MDA works on battery until it turns off automatically (power save) or if I press power button... When on craddle, power button works normally...

I can make calls and everything on battery but when I turn it off - id goes dead :o((

Hi friends

I need to know if this model (E977), is compatible with all or part of the guides that I have here to the root, recovery and ROMs in general (I want to be like a Nexus 4).

This is the model that is distributed in Chile, which by the way is pretty cheap, or import the E973 from eBay

Greetings !!
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Yep,my guess is the difference is made by the lte band.so you can root it,unlock it like r

E975.if it will say model not supported,just upload boot.img on freegee thread and shelnutt will make the solution and update the application.

My other guess is e975 roms will work on e977.

JUST DO NOT CONVERT IT TO NEXUS4.

Ps. Look on rooting thread,someone from chile already rooted it.

Anyone knows if the CM 10.1 for E975, is running in E977 ( Brazilian Version ) .

IMO the only problems can be the lte modem and the camera ( I think E975 is 8 Mpixel and E977 is 13 Mpixel )

Additionally, can i backup E977 EFS folder and then restore it into E975 flashed firmware? Or...is there another procedure to get the modem? Obviously I want to keep LTE from Chile...
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Guys,you don't need to flash stock e975 firmware before flashing custom roms.look in index thread,see all roms reported to be working on e977.if you flash a custom ,it will not change a thing regarding baseband/modem.can't remember them all,but official cm,pacman,paranoid are some of the roms working on e977.

[LG Optimus G (International)] darknight123:
Thank you for all your help but i make a mistake since the beginning in my posts... i didn't tell you that the only reason to make a rom change it's because a damn BATTERY DRAIN in all instances....or doing nothing (idle, deep sleeping, playing, etcetera).

Im still finding some person that can resolve this issue... so when i start posting here, am supposing that the 10d could make any difference in stability and corrects the UGLY BATTERY DRAIN ISSUE.

I recently bought my nice LG Optimus G, thinking that LG brand finally did a good job, with an open, fast, and nice phone...but again, i make a mistake changing my samsung galaxy s3!! In that time, i had a lot of time, spending with my family, friends, doing a lunch, etc...but now, im worried about how to make an improvement in the battery of my cellphone...woww!!!

So if you can give some info about fix that, i appreciate it a lot!!!!!!!!

Thank you...Greets from Chile... :(
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Don't know what you are doing to your phone, but,compared to my gf's s3, my g lasts better,used in same conditions.

Just make sure there are no apps running in background, remove all unnecesary bloat, use greenify and es task manager to stop unwanted apps/services from runing when you don't need them.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Exedion:
Well i had a E977 from telefonica movistar venezuela, i made all modifications like normal E975 (root, unlock bootloader with freegee, recovery and custom rom) cyanogenmod work very well, with minimal ram usage (about 500/600 max usage) but with super batery drain in normal use (when screen is off, the batery not drain), my problem was when i try to go back stock, i get super brick my phone, i had to take to SAT and validate warranty because when you try to restore with recovery (twrp) not work (the recovery dont find the backup) and when you restore you bootloader with freegee, the phone get security error bootloop brick, when you use tinybin method, you phone get worse, you cant flash custom roms because when the rom boot, you get kernel error (even flashing other kernel), and can't restore with KDZ because the roms for E977 are more than 1gb, kdz updater not work with 1gb+ roms... then my recommendation is if you do not want to live with the phone with errors, stay in stock, if you like to experiment without caring anything, modify it.

3G Bands for 977 - Explain me!

Hi, i'm from venezuela, i have a questions: May use i in this phone a sim from Digitel Telecom (3G 900Mhz)? The support 3G in 977 is 1900/2100 or support too 900Mhz? I no have clear this if here say 975=977 but with LTE band not compatible is only difference?

Thenks for responses! (and sorry for my english...)
[LG Optimus G (International)] Unreal_Shogo:
Theorically you can use your E977 with a Digitel simcard if it's free. The only difference between the 977 and 975 is the lte, nothing else

Running CM10.1. I've read all the different threads about this, and tried everything. I've tried SD maid to clean up orphaned folders, SD tools to fix corrupt images, clearing media storage data, adding .nomedia files, removing them, wiping both SD cards, Media rescan, disabling media storage, wiping cache, fixing permissions, and haloeight's instructions. I have all my music on a 32GB external SD and use PlayerPro as my music player. If I disable media storage, PP loses all my music. Even now, every so often it will lose all my music and have to rediscover it. Mediascannerservice is killing my battery. I left my phone in my car for two hours at 100%. It was down to 47% when I got back to it. Mediascannerservice ran for nearly 90 minutes.

WTF can I do?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Commodore 64:
2 Things you should do to find out if it is your hardware or software. Test your SD card.

Take your SD card out of your phone, put it in an SD adaptor or whatever you have to attach it to your computer and back up your music files on your computer. This is a simple copy/paste file copy and through this you will monitor your sd card's performance on your computer and see if it cuts off during the transfer or gets rediscovered ... and if so you would assume there is something physically wrong with your SD card, and replace it.

Meanwhile try a different external SD with some files/content on it and add it to your phone, and see if the phone still keeps looking and searching and indexing ... then try a CLEAN flash of CM10.1. (backup,format data-cache-system-NOreboot install, advance restore your data) to trouble shoot your possible OS problems.

Good luck,

I have rooted my micromax a87 and have installed the deception ICS rom. however, I am not quite satisfied with it. I have heard that there is an ICS and a JB ROM for samsung galaxy y, which has more or less the same hardware specs as mine except for the screen difference. If I will install that ROM, can I risk my phone to brick, or will it be shown small in my screen because galaxy y's screen is comparitively smaller than mine... please help I'm a rookie at this thing

It will surely brick your device.

They are completely different phones and they will be having different bootloaders and what not. Don't try that.

You will brick your device badly and with the OEM of that device refusing to release the kernel source code you will find no roms here for it very soon.

A jtag is a device that will reprogram your device on the hardware level and needs to be hooked up to the main board itself using the proper mount points. Not something I would advice anyone doing. Let alone on a device like yours.
