This is getting weird (JB update failed right after Factory Reset) - Asus Transformer TF700

I had problem updating my TF700 to JB - it complained about a signature mismatch on Vibe_CN.apk, so I decided to do a factory reset and start all over.
I only installed enough to regain root (SuperSU, Voodo Root Keeper, Titanium Backup, ES File Explorer), and when I copy the dlpkgfile and command file to their proper location and reboot into update, it starts the update but fails at the same spot (check on Vibe_CN.apk).
I am 100% positive, that I didn't uninstall anything, froze anything or anything else that could conceivably cause a problem, so what is going on here?
I'll try to re-install the .30 firmware from asus web page to see if the problem lies there, but can anyone explain this or come with suggestions?

When I try to do this, I get the red triangle, and after pressing power I get the following text on screen:

I have tried this with both the EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip located in the root of my MicroSD card (with the card inserted), and with the file located in the internal "/sdcard" directory, and in both cases, I get the above result.

[Q] Need PIT File for P6210 Model US WIFI

Hello,
I need a PIT file for the Galaxy Tab Plus 7.0 US WIFI P6210 model. I'm soft bricked and reflash of the PDA file with Odin has not corrected my boot lockup. I've found and downloaded a copy of a PIT file for the P6200, but I'm afraid to load it in the event I screw the unit up worse (arguably, what could be worse than a tablet that won't run).
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Right after flashing the ODIN package, try booting into the "stock recovery" before actually booting your tab up. Clear cache and data, then try rebooting your tablet again.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Unless you misused a PIT when flashing before, you shouldn't have a need for a PIT to fix.
OK, I tried reflashing the Odin package (three files boot, CSC and PDA) using Odin 1.8.5 It appears to run to completion. Then when rebooting I get E: failed to mount /cache (No suchfile or directory)
E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
*manual Mode*
--Updating application--
E: failed to mount /efs (no such file or directory)
install application for customer: Can't mount /efs

E:can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

Then from menu I select wipe cache partition and get

Formatting cache...

E:failed to mount /cache (no such file or directory)

Get the following messages:

Formatting data...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p9

E:failed to mount /cache (no such file or directory)
E:can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E: failed to mount /cache (no such file or directory)
Then I select reboot system now
Then I get about 5-6 more red "can't mount", failed to mount" messages that go by too fast to copy, it reboots and gets to the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus screen and it just freezes at this point.
In a different post I stated that how the Tab became locked up was I started getting SOD Screen of Death spontaneous reboots and heated battery symptoms, sometimes on the charger, sometimes not. I could always reboot it and it would then act normally for a while (1-2 days), then start with the reboots and warm battery again. About a week ago, I woke up and found the Tab (on the charger), stuck on the Galaxy Tab startup screen. Repeated reboots kept getting back to a lockup on the startup screen. Since then, I did some reading, found a copy of Odin and loaded two different PDA files, both for the P6210 supposedly, they each mounted successfully per Odin and then kept getting similar error messages like the above and a lockup on startup at the end. After trying loading the PDA files by themselves, I then tried loading the CSC and bootloader files to an Odin run with the PDA file that came in the zip file with the CSC and bootloader files. I don't know much about Android but know a little about programming, windows and DOS. It seems like I am either missing a bunch of files or the directory structure is missing a bunch of folders, which is why I could only see that the PIT file with a repartition may be the only thing to get me out of this (assuming the repartition also loads a directory structure onto the Tab - don't know if this is the case or not). The other possibility I suppose is that there may be an electronic problem with the unit, but usually you get a complete failure and not a reboot lockup.
Just so I'm clear on the above post, as soon as I flashed the package, I unplugged the Tab from the PC and held power + sound up, got into stock recovery and cleared cache and then cleared data. The error messages above were what I got doing these things.
Same Problem
Did you ever get it out of the boot loop?
I did the same as you but to no effect - anyone know if samsung will replace these "defective" units? Clearly there is something very wrong given the thousands of hits that have the same problem.

i got same problem with my p6200 tab 3 month ago,
i solved with pit file
u should find pit file to solve this problem
as i saw you can get the .pit file by opening and extracting the firmware(md5 file) with winrar.
just my 2 cents
Where is the PIT file?

I extracted all the files - nothing with PIT. Do I need to open the img files too?
thanks,

Got a PIT - flashed - now can't mount system
Otherwise the cache is now there and I get an updating message right after reboot - tried the clear cache and reset - which works (no failure notices).
But...get a failed to mount /system (invalid argument) for both updating app and applying multi-CSC now and of course still in the logo boot loop.
Ideas?
Thanks!
K
Any luck on this?

Hi Submicron,
I'm on the same situation. After flashing 4.0.4, wifi became unstable. Someone said that I should flash a pit file, I did and now I'm bricked. Did you solved, or found a working pit file for the P6210? Thanks in advance.
I'm also having troubles with wifi on ICS (but not on HC, strange)... Unfortunately I own a P6200 and my .pit file won't help you.
Submicron, do NOT use a P6200 pit file, it will render you tab unusable, as I've read they have different partition layouts.
And I know it already is unusable, but anyways... ;P
I bet someone will pop here with a PIT file for P6210 soon enough, so hang in there :good:

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9003 [Boot]

I've got a problem with my Samsung i9003.
It goes to the Samsung Logo with the backround Sound and keeps rebooting then forever.
I also can't access the Recovery Mode whenever I try to get there it says:"Power Reset or Unknown Upload Mode".
However I can enter the download mode but whenever I flash a new ROM there is the following Error Message after the Bootlogo:
E:failed to mount /data (No such file or directory)

May be a problem with the custom ROM. Try reinstalling the stock firmware first.

[Completed] How to protect a portion of internal memory during OS install?

So, I have a Sprint HTC One (M7) that I tried to root following this guide:
http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to...-developer-tv/
Custom Recovery was flashed successfully (I tried both TWRP 2.5 and CWM 6.0.4.6), and I immediately got the following errors:
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last _log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install
I can't access /cache, in short. So, I tried to find my SD card, but my phone doesn't have a slot for one, and I couldn't figure out how to write to the virtual one inside the phone, so I selected "Install zip" option in CWM and passed SuperSU-v2.46.zip through sideload, and it failed when it couldn't access cache. I was then rather foolish, and tried to just flash a ROM from Android Revolution HD, found on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2265618 (I used this particular ROM:Android_Revolution_HD-One_92.0_4a9d05.zip).
Again, I passed it using sideload because I don't have an SD card. The install formatted my partitions, then at 30% (when it began to copy files), it failed. Thus, I was left with an empty phone, but an unlocked bootloader. I tried a few more things, to no avail.
I think if I could figure out how to put something in the virtual SD inside, or somehow protect the install files from being overwritten during the install, that might get me there, since I'm guessing that it's formatting over the location of the installer/image. Also, I found that if I use the "Wipe /cache" from CWM, I don't get those access cache errors, but then I can't reboot into the recovery without flashing it again, so I'm guessing that it's saving it in the /cache partition. I use the command "fastboot flash recovery CWM_image.img" to put my recovery in there, which may be a part of the problem.
Anyway, any ideas or help would be nice. I know enough to be dangerous, but clearly not enough to get myself out of this mess. Any help would be appreciated, and at this point, it would just be nice to have any OS on my phone. All HTC recovery software fails because they require a locked bootloader, but my computer won't detect a phone with no OS and a locked bootloader...
