[URGENT] Need help please. INTERNAL SD CARD CORRUPTED!!! - Samsung Galaxy SL i9003

Hi all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy SL i9003 XXKPH and skin's CF root installed. Everything was working fine until yesterday my mobile started behaving weirdly. If I let it stay for a while, and press the home button it wouldn't start. I had to remove the battery and boot again. When it boots up, I get the initial setup screen like language settings, email setup,etc in a nutshell it got resetted. This was happening for almost 5 times yesterday. Today I faced the same issue but my mobile wouldn't go past the boot screen this time. It kept bootlooping. I tried to restore via CWM restore but it threw an error "CAN"T MOUNT /SYSTEM". I kept receiving the following errors
i got error message 'e: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p3'
got E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p3, after flash
I tried to flash XXKPH again but no luck. I noticed a few times its getting past the boot logo and I see the homescreen but in MY FILES, it displays "YOU DO NOT HAVE A SD CARD INSERTED"
My questions are:
* Has anyone faced this problem already? If so please provide me a fix.
* If no fix can be given, and if I take it to the samsung service center the warranty is applicable or it gets void?
Please guys help me. Lots of thanks!!!

The issue you reported was that of SoD reported by some in the Skin's OC kernel.
What did you try to do? Did you flashed only KPH PDA? If yes. Try to flash with all the files of XXKPE(pit, bootloader, pda, modem), then KPH over it. Se if this solves your problem.

Thanks for your reply. As I said, i did nothing after installing CF root of skin's long back. It was working fine for almost a month. This issue happened to cause out of nowhere. I tried to flash XXKPE first and then XXKPH but no luck.

Is everything else working fine? I once faced this issue when I accidently deleted my "vold.fstab". try lookin for it thru Root explorer.
If not, Flash your original ROM(the one tat came with your phone), cook a good story & head on to the service center..
Best of Luck..!!
P.S.: Also take alook what dis guy is saying(m not sure of it)

Thanks Ronhoover. I downgraded my firmware from gingerbread to froyo(DXKF1).
Installation went successfully and got my homescreen but still when I open "MY FILES" it displays "YOU DO NOT HAVE SD CARD INSERTED" though I've inserted a 8 GB external card. One doubt though, if I go back to the samsung service centre with this firmware, Can I get a warranty? Can they detect what all I've done before?

Format your sd card.

No they will not detect anything until u flashed other rom other than stock. U just flash stock rom then make a good fake story to tell service center & tell them to flash back firmware & make phone like when I purchaed it.

This i a well know problem with the sg1 i9000,there was some bad memory chips ,shipped, some had luck by just flashing a complete full rom, like mine,others had to send the device to Samsung.

Thanks for your reply. If I send to samsung, Can I still get the warranty? Since this issue looks like a hardware fault.

Well I tried by two ways. I browsed through settings and selected SD and Phone storage and tried to format it. It displays SD is not mounted and though I select format SD card nothing happens. Secondly, I tried to connect the device in MASS STORAGE but windows wouldn't detect it.

It is probably a hardware fault and should be covered regardless.

Flash DDKB2 or DDKF1 before you take it to the service center..

hi
it's hardware fault and you have 2 options
1- flash your original firmware and send to the service center if you can .
2- modify fstab and vold.fstab to allocate external sd as internal
please check my post tested and working

Didn't try it and also gave my phone to service but thanks anyway. One doubt though, even I do this, I will get only my external sd capacity and not my internal sd right? So internal sd card is of no use thereafter you say?

Flashed to DDKB2 and gave the phone to samsung service center. Keeping my fingers crossed as they will let me know the status by today evening.

dear dude_rocks
please can you update us

@ahmed,
I've given my mobile for service. They said its motherboard problem. I'm waiting for the spare part. Probably I'll be getting mine next week.

was getting multiple "Internal SD Card unexpectedly removed" errors - if i flashed other ROMS (and the service centre did the same, they flashed 2 ROMs) id either keep getting this error or it'd do a restart+bootloop which would require me to pull the battery.
Finally got the service centre to replace the PBA mainboard. they did that 1 hr ago so now hoping no more restarts/force closes. they put my on 2.3.6 (indian version DDKP3).
Also, the best part....my internal SD now shows 11.73GB earlier showed 1.52GB

Do a factory reset and clear cache. If this doesnot solve the problem flash xxkpe twice and then flash any other 2.3.6 firmware xxkpq or ddkp2
Next time ask your questions in general q and a thread
got new galaxy i9003 on replacement.....
ddkp2/ext4/cwm 5
now factory reset giving error:
E: format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl10
heeeeeeelppppppppppp
Don't panic like a child. Anyway simply flash xxkpe first & then xxkpq rom. It will 100% solve ur problem.
FROM NEXT TIME POST UR PROBLEMS IN GENERAL SECTION.
I already did that and waiting for the results,
Its not a matter of panic I was going to sell the device today and what a luck!
Thanks.
Same thing happened to me. I thing internal memory is broken. Tried anything but it gets worse everyday. Try to see if you notice any message before it restarts itself. Mine had some notification like 'internal memory corrupted' or something like that. I flashed an official rom and took it to a samsung service center but havent heard anything in 25 days. They told me i have to wait for a month :'(

No man, I took your advice and didn't panic, after spending FIVE years as a mobile software developer and technical support I wont make it go the the service center!, I'll try to fix it for couple days since its already a holiday then if its not fixed i'll burn it because its very cold right here
As u wish buddy. But my personal opinion is go to service center if it is within warranty.

Its not under warranty, I bought it from another country, the local dealer barely accepts local-sold phones
On XXKPQ there was no hard-reset but still randomly rebooting? I think its a hardware memory problem,Thanks all.
A lot of us have been facing this problem recently (including me) and that too all of a sudden! If you're right then it may have something to do with faulty internal memory or something. Quite unusual as the phone works perfectly fine during usage and all months prior! Guess all the flashing is to be blamed!
Guys,
The problem is almost solved with me, when I'm sure about that I'll create a thread for that,
Thanks for all who participated in this issue, and specially for CollieDawg for his nice scenarios

Do share what your solution is, there are many including me waiting to know!
Facing the same problem
Tried flashing GalaxySL_I9003DDKP2_INU from androidadvices.com.
Seeing that the phone keeps restarting itself and then all contacts, messages, etc, etc. gets lost.
My phone is still under warranty.
I think I should just go and give it to the service center. But if you find a solution, please do let me know. Will be very thankful.

I was planning to share when im sure, I have just installed TWLauncher4.5 and no restarts happened,
The problem is of two parts:
1. Random restarts.
2. Restart with data erase.
The launcher solved the first problem for one day till now, but the the second problem wasn't happening to me on XXKPQ,
I'll confirm soon.
Here is the link for the TWLauncher4.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883
UPDATE:
I was getting hard reset on Arabic JPKPE 2.3.6,
NOW:
Im on DeOdexed XXKPQ with UC kernel V07 with OC, flashed twice after XXKPE, no hard-reset but only random restarts.
The TWLauncher didnt solve the random restarts it only solved hard reset with me.
TWLauncher did not stop the problem
Hi,
I tried installing the TW Launcher 4.5 as you had told. But I am still getting the problem of restarting. Any other fix u tired?

[Q][HELP][ASAP] Multiple Random Reboots.. PLEASE HELP.

Just like the title, i have been experiencing some random rebooting in the past 9 days... at first i thought that i somehow held the on/off button inside my pocket and rebooted itself. my theory changed when i was charging it on that same night... i knew something was wrong few days after it would reboot itself from time to time.
also sometimes after rebooting (mostly when it is charging..) wifi connections start to goof off. i checked the wifi setting and it would say "error" under the "turn on/off wifi" area where you usually see the "connected/connecting/disconnected" letters, along with that some apps start to force close mostly the ones that needs the net get fc's.....
only yesterday it got worse. on the morning it had started to reboot. when i unlocked the lockscreen some apps started to FC. i usually get fc's in booting are the juice plotter, Google partner setup, and something with "wifi". now i manually rebooted it myself when it boots, it still shows those fc's. if it tried pressing some apps it tried to fc as well. manual reboot again, now messages fc's along with the three....
so i went to recovery and restored my safest backup. after restoring no more fc's in my boot. i thought it was all fine now but after a while it would randomly reboot!!!!
Styles of random reboots ive gotten:
1. on screen-off while charging after a while BOOM! reboot.
2. on screen-off not charging, after a while BOOM! reboot.
3. pressing the on/off button on the side when it was on screen-off, BOOM! reboot.
4. pressing the on/off button on the side when it was on screen-off, shows the lockscreen, shows "SD card unexpectedly removed" on status bar, BOOM! reboot.
*it wont reboot when you're using it unless it goes to screen-off for a while (like when using music player... when it goes to screen-off for a while it would reboot...)
--- i will add more of the reboots styles if i remember the others.---
i really need help. i cannot reflash to stock because my laptop got stolen since February. i would be receiving my new laptop in five days.... but i am worried that something worse would happen before even getting my laptop in five days.

Yes I know . The latest uc kernel is v10. But my laptop was stolen since the first week of february. That time the best kernel suited for poseidon rom was the v6. So till now I am stuck with v16 since the time my laptop was gone until I get my new on in 4 days at least...

Sorry, I didnt see your post earlier. But I am wiping every thing now while im replying you. I will tell you the results when it is finished.
Edit: phone seems to work normally. But some apps get fc's... But i think i know why. Its because i forgot to move back apps which were moved to the sd card back to phone memory.(using app2sd).. I know so because i remember having 7 apps moved to sd which had taken alot of space due to its size.
Anyway, thanks bro! I guess i owe you my phone but i will still be monitoring the phone and see if it'll reboot randomly again... Till i get my laptop ill reflash my phone. Again, thanks alot sandeep!and good luck with your exams again!
RE-EDIT: it not kinda fixed yet... When i woke up and checked my phone it seemed to be normal but when i opened the lockscreen fc's starts flooding me... About 6 or 7 fc's they are google goggles, superuser,titanium backup, google play music, google setup sumthing (it was in the first post..) Emai and.messages... I also get fc on yahoo mail but it doesnt fc the same time as the others. I tries uninstalling rthem and other apps as well but some time while i uninstall it starts to freeze and reboot... But the reboot is different. I doesnt reboot the "samsung galaxy s 19003 " thing. Justs stars from the glowing samsing logo. When it boots, the uninstalled apps seems to come back. So i thought of removing mg sd card and then restart... Fc's lessened to superuser, email tbackup and email. And i can uninstall now without it rebooting. Now i know ext sd cards are somewhat along with the problem. My phones antivirus does not see any viruses in it tho.
... Oh im using my SE W8.. Kinda small, hard to type...
it sounds like a kernel problem to me just update your kernel if you cant because you dont have a laptop just use mobile odin

Sounds like a hardware problem forme. I have this problem 4 months ago. I have random reboots. I have tried everything from flashing new roms and kernels and nothing seems to fix it. Have you tried clean flashing(xxkpe-xxkpq)? If that still doesnt work then you really have a hardware problem. The only thing you can do is to send it back to samsung service center for repair or replacement(I just hope you are still in warranty period)

Like i said i dont have a laptop yet to reflash phone to stock and check. If it'll not work, im pretty sure they'll change the motherboard.. My warranty expires on july so there is still time. pretty sure my dad will get pissed and buy an s2 instead. This phone already went to the service center twice. And the service center is far from where i live. Though i am enjoying improving the capabilities of this phone :\
Anyway what i did now was flashed uc kernel v10 via odin mobile (thanks mR_ ). Then i wiped everyting again. So far there was no fc's yet and one reboot only when i was installing dolphin browser... And thats it. Nothing else suspicious happened yet.
This problem has happened to my bro before. I helped him change his rom to clean kpu and it was fixed.

Looks like the infamous pseudo reset bug again! Well looks like it with some symptoms missing, the i9003 had a faulty board with faulty internal memory card, so when it goes to sleep the int card sometimes doesn't wake up again. I faced this problem personally myself, no amount of flashing can help you (though i suspect excessive flashing might have caused/triggered it, dunno) so make sammy change the board on this bad boy, hey! you might get 16gb inbuilt memory as a bonus!

hmm... i hope not. also i dont really flash anything unless updates are available on the ics theme. well now that you mentioned it, while i was at the beach like last week, i put my phone on my pocket without screening of (which i always and should do..) and then when i checked back the all my messages and files in the internal sd card were gone.... though the apps are still there and were still on go launcher ex home..... i hope it was just am accidental reset. i want to bring it to the service center im going to get my laptop in at least 2 days! and i want to spend my summer with both of them.
anyway. is wifi working well on poseidon rom with the uc kernel v10? thats the only problem here. my wifi keeps going on and off. crashing the apps that needs wifi whenever i press it. its the same problem with amit cf root kernel when you use poseidon.

[Q] installed rom and now I have NO service.

Hey guys,
No matter what I do I can't get my service to work again. All it shows at the top is a little circle with a slash through the middle. I tried installing a custom rom but ran into some problems. So I "restored" my backup through rom manager. But i don't have service anymore. Since this happend I have tried several new roms and I still can't get the service to come back.
Some people say it has something to do with the IMEI but according to my setup I still have one.
I have been working on this problem for nearly 13 hrs none stop! Please help... I have searched everywhere.
Thanks

If your IMEI and all that information is correct then you may have a bad sim card resulting in no service at all. Otherwise i'd recommend using odin to go back to completely 100% stock and see if that fixes it.

Thank you so much for responding. I have tried to restore stock with odin but every time odin finishes my phone still boots up my existing rom. Any quick ideas with that one?
And do you really think my sim could have just gone bad like that? It's free to get a new one so maybe I will try that as a last resort.
I don't know much about rooting but could it be my radio?
A couple of questions?
Is boot loader unlocked, if so how did you unlock, updated ver 1.4 ez-unlock can mess up and relock boot loader. Use ver 1.2 . "Verizon only"
What ROM and kernel? Make sure its for your carrier.
Any radio should be OK as long as its for you phone and carrier.

did you try reprovisioning your device with dialer code *2767*3855?
note that this does wipe internal sd so back ur **** up!
I tired the above number in dialer but always comes up with error saying "mobile network not available".
Am I doing something wrong?
Oh.... You forgot to ad a # on the end of that number. After this everything started working again!!! Thank you so much!

What fixes the problem. This happened to me after flashing the latest MIUI ROM on my Verizon S3.
I tried re provisioning my phone with the number sequence below but it did not work. I also used the phone info app but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.

Hard Reset doesn't work/deleted apps are restored after reboot

Hello everyone,
I just joined this forum and i need some help.
I've got a very wierd problem with my samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0
Tablet: Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 GT-P3110 model.
Android: ver. 4.1.2
So the story behind my tablet is that my dad bought it when he working in another country,when he came back he told me that he had a broken galaxy tab 2 and he asked me to try to fix it,the problem he reported was that the tablet sometimes restarts,alot of programs have crashes and the wierdest thing is that,when I turn it off and then turn on the device (or simply restart it) the system is restored to some earlier state, this includes:
1. Apps I've deleted are still installed.
2. Widgets or app shortcuts on 'home' pages are still on their old place though I've rearranged them.
3. Same with wallpapers.
4. Same with settings.
So i tried the following:
1. Factory reset + cache clean. Even though it is supposed to be a full system wipe, it doesn't work.
2. Reinstalling a Stock ROM via ODIN. Doesn't work either and it takes about an hour to do...it says it was successful but it doesn't change anything in the tablet.
Also there is a notice in android recovery, which states:
did not match sized '/system/csc/common/system/csc/feature.xml' (no data available)
This device wasn't rooted.
So i you would ask you guys for some help,thanks.

My line of thought is that if you do root it, you can format the system partition which would more than likely fix this issue. But like I said, more than likely, there's no guarantee because it might be a hardware issue. Have you considered sending it in for repair? Since it's not rooted they would do it. If you don't care to send it in and are just trying stuff to see if you can get it working again, then rooting it wouldn't hurt anything. But that's your choice.

OK, so here's where just rooting won't help. You have two options: 1) Find the stock ROM at Samsung and have it on your SD card. Or 2) choose another ROM. Whichever you choose is up to you. You're going to have to format your system in the custom recovery, by doing this your tab is wiped of all info including the stock ROM. If you format system you won't be able to boot into your tab without flashing another ROM after. If I'm repeating stuff you know, I apologize. You'll need the ROM you choose on your external sd card, because you'll want to completely format everything (except your ext sd). If you know all this, try it out and see if it helps. If you want to learn more and the steps, PM me, I'll help as much as I can!

Hi, i'm facing the same issue here. Then I've try to root the phone but failed. Can help me too Sir?
For now it can't repaired, It,s known as emmc brickbug, find the xda forum thru Playstore emmc brickbug check. In Indonesia there is website that claim can repair it by replacing the emmc chip/internal memory, but it's not proven yet, since no body in our Galaxy Tab 2 facebook group has confirmed it. More than 15 people in the group has reported this bug, and the only way to fix it is by replacing the mainboard in Samsung Service Center. I also have replaced my wife Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 mainboard with the same case. In Indonesia the cost is about US$100

Any updates to this problem or is this any unfixable situation. what about side load? been trying for 7 months now to fix this and nothing works... nothing at all
A new tablet will fix this issue. Seems like the only solution.

[Q] No signal anymore

Hey guys... I recently encountered a problem with my nexus 5. Suddenly my phone lost signal and it won't receive any more signal.I was on the latest version of PA on 4.4.2 ...... Now I factory reset my phone and it's stuck on phone setup... What do I do?? I'll try flashing back to stock later and I'll see if it's fixed... Also, before factory resetting my phone, I checked my IMEI and it isnt gone.... It was still there.. Strange... Any suggestions on what I should do? Also, I don't have a nandroid backup....

Still no luck
Guys... Returning to stock didn't do anything... Still the same problem... Now I'm stuck in setting up the phone since it shows that my sim is inserted and it's trying to activate the sim... But it stays there forever ... I'm pretty sure it's a problem with the sim holder... When I tried removing the SIM card for the phone, it failed to eject my SIM card... Now I have to find a way to get my sim out... When I use the pin, it only opens 1/8.. It's too small to fit anything in it... What do I do?? Running out of ideas...
I could give my phone for repair but I live in Dubai and I don't think there are any service centers here...

Yeah definitely sounds like you need a repair. Contact google initially and sew what they say
