Ok, so first of all, the current firmware on the phone keeps crashing every 5 seconds, and some recovery log process keeps forceclosing, so I NEED to get a new rom. This current one is not functional.
I finally downloaded a ROM, and put it on the root of my SD card.
Now, when I booted to CWM (holding vol up and vol down, and holding power), I get some errors.
It looks something like this:
Android system recovery <3e>
Samsung Recovery Utils
- for BML -
Enter: POWER Key. Select : Vol UP/ Vol Down
reboot system now
reinstall packages
delete all user data
delete cache data
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
# MANUAL MODE #

Installing Multi-CSC
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid Argument)
E:Can't mount CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't open CACHE:log/recovery.log
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(Invalid Argument)
And so the CWM is messed up.
Now the menu looks something like this, (Totally different from what I've seen before)
Any idea how to get cwm functioning? By the way, I did not use ROM manager. Heard it messes stuff up.
Thanks.

I have some weird stuff going on and I was wondering if maybe someone could tell me what it means. My phone is running fine, in fact better than ever. But when I reboot into recovery mode, and before I apply update.zip and I am in stock recovery (blue), I get the follow message below all of the recovery options (error message is in red):
E: Can't mount /dev/block/st111
(Invalid Argument)
E Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(Invalid Argument)
# MANUAL MODE #
E: Can't mount /dev/block/st111
(Invalid Argument)
E: Can't mount /dev/block/st111
(Invalid Argument)
Then, when I do a backup through CWM, everything goes through fine and then I get this message:
Back complete!
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
When I go into CWM recovery, I do see a backup labeled with the correct date and everything, so I guess it is backing up correctly? Not quite sure what to make of it.
Ignore it.

I've had this happen and it happens when you have lagfix enabled and try to revert/odin back to a stock kernel (non voodoo) you'll need to follow the manual disabling procedure (of lagfix) by injecting an empty file named "disable lagfix" into the clockwork folder on your SD card then reboot. After that you should be clear to do a clean flash to get everything working properly. If you tried restoring right now it would probably give you an MD5 mismatch, and trying to flash from recovery would probably give you dev/block errors and it would cancel installation until you get your file system back in order.

OK that makes sense. I was flashing all over the place trying to fix that radio issue. Although I liked Add's answer better. Much more convenient

Lol yea, I tried that too when I buggered mine up, but since I couldn't flash anything in recovery I decided to find out how to fix it
After trying to update to the Alpha MIUI build for the showcase, I couldn't get past the boot screen. So, I odin flashed back to stock, but in the processes, I believe I accidentally flashed something to the boot loader.
Now, every time I turn on the phone, I get the blue stock recovery. I can get into 2.5 red recovery and access download mode, but doing the correct reflash to stock doesn't seem to fix the problem
Does anyone have any ideas to fix this? Is the stock bootloader available for download?
*edit: Also worth noting. I get the error: "can't mount \dev\block\stl11" in the recovery menu.
The device no longer shows the Samsung Logo on boot. It remains black for a time then proceeds to the recovery menu.
Total error output in stock 2e recovery is as follows:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11
(invalid argument)
Once I open recovery 2.5.1x (red) I get the following errors:
E:Missing bitmap progress_empty
(code -1)
E:Missing bitmap progress_fill
(code -1)
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11

E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl11

Did you use the PIT file and check Repartition in ODIN when flashing?
Yes, I used the atlas 2.2.1 PIT, and checked repartition.
Had similar error in recovery and only way i found to fix it was to go back to 2.1 then forward to 2.2. Then install custom recovery etc.

This is for the Showcase, not the Mesmerize. There's no 2.1 ODIN files for the Showcase.
Pay attention.

plz help i have odin and i CAN get it into download mode i just need the files and a walkthrough thanks...
I have waked up and noticed that the phone is stuck on google logo, i tried to restore factory settings but that was not applicable
so i followed that post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513701 to unlock the bootloader and install factory rom
after several tries my mobile phone can't start and when it starts the apps begin to crash one after the other, I noticed that the mobile recognize a memory of 250 MB (although I have a 32 GB storage) and I think thats the problem
Now I can open the recovery mode but the following errors appears:
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log_log
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_install
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_install
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
So I don't know what to do!!!!! please help

The internal flash memory module (32GB) of your phone.
Same thing happened to me. Was stuck in loading screen. Reset to factory settings. My apps would crash and I cant connect to my network. I also followed that same guide but it didn't help.
Yep, phone's internal storage is probably dead. RMA!
Just curious: for how much time did you use your phone before crashing? Was it completely stock?
