Hey guys i need help. I recently rooted my samsung galaxy trend gt-s7392, so that i can install a custom rom. I have used odin and installed cwm and then installed twrp mod for my device. I still havent wiped my system rom but inorder to install the custom rom i was trying to format the /data partition but for some reason it was stuck in cwm. So i switched to twrp to tackle the problem. But according to logcat , twrp is unable to mount the /data partition and the /data partition shows 0mb in total size and in free space. I cannot mount or format the /data partition but all other partitions are working well and can be mounted and formatted. And if i try to reboot my system in its current state then it just gets stuck in a bootloop. Please tell me what to do so that i can mount and format the /data partition to install the stock or any custom rom. Any help is appreciated. Please help!
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. You shouldn't have both CWM and TWRP on your phone at the same time. Something didn't work right right when you tried to replace cwm with twrp. You might have to return your device to stock and start over.

Please help i think i have messed it up pretty bad. My phone boots into recovery but it only shows loading bar in cwm and the picture of an android. I can still boot into download/odin mode but my phone can neither boot into system nor can i use adb shell commands. I cannot even use cwm recovery sice it only shows loading. Please Please Please Help!!!!
Don't panic. Unfortunately there is not a specific forum for your device on XDA. But what you'll want to do is flash the stock firmware in odin.
- Goggle odin 3.07 xda. Extract that and install it on your pc.
- Download the stock firmware from sammobile.com You have to register but it's free. You'll download a zip file. Use 7-zip or winrar to extract it. You'll end up with a .tar.md5 file. That's what you'll use in odin.
- Star odin on your pc
- Put your device in download mode and connect it to your pc with the usb cable
- Using the PDA slot in odin find the .tar.md5 file
- Only have f. reset and auto-reboot checked in odin. DO NOT have re-partition checked.
- run odin
Note: odin can be finicky. Use the usb ports in the back of the PC. You might have to try different usb ports and cables

First of all you need to flash your backup if U have one, system partition would be enought for your effort.
If U don't have any kind of backup - full nandroid backup or adb backup you must flash stock rom.
U have SM-G355HN, download your regional version ( region) from http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-G355HN
or register and download it from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and find your regional version for your phone.
You can flash the stock with odin or kies
Odin :
Second you need odin3 for samsung flash, you can find tutorials how to here in xda or youtube, just search for it.
You will have to have installed usb drivers
Kies :
Kies download : samsung kies, install usb drivers and flash and download it from the net.
You will find a lot of how to's here in xda or youtube, but how to do it with G355HN is really the sama os for the other phones.
thank you for your replay.. the think is that I have already try this steps and instead the fact that I have installed drivers using kies. adb sideload ,kies and odin cant recognize device.. so I was thinking to put flashable build prompt in sdcard and flash it using stock recovery..

If Kies or odin cannot recognice the device ...
If you have previously installed odin correctly and the odin has made partition in your device you should enter download odin mode while phone is off. Use power + Home + Volume down and if it works odin will flash the stock.
If U can't enter stock recovery mode power + Home + Volume up this would be a biger problem.
If the device wont boot and the download and recovery mode doesn't work, your stuck with easy options.
Been messing with recovery ( built in ) and nandroid backup. Cannot create the whole backup just because of the limitation of the file SDCard FS, system recovery program or recovery kernel or update binary.
So far I found only ADB backup via recovery working fully to backup /system & /data partitions.
For all other partitions I can make flashable zip and it's all working good, only /system and /data are limited because of the restriction of fs or kernel/recovery program.
adb backup/restore via recovery / adb:
Code:
adb backup -apk -shared -all -f backup.adb
Code:
adb restore backup.adb
Waiting for custom recovery for phone and full backup/restore within recovery.
its the first time using odin..my custom recovery works fine ( I can flash files using update from external) except sideload which cant recognise device... so if you can create a flashable system to flash it using recovery it might works..!
Provide your stock firmware fregion or link and I'll make you system or data backup - stock only.
Waiting for the firmware region.
my stock firmware region is EUR (Greece).. waiting for the file..! thank you..

G355HN single sim or dual ?
G355HN single sim
https://mega.co.nz/#!91B1nCyK!883UcDhjjj6M-AnciDMdMh8WopfdOeZrKEwC8G-Ibs4
Here is the package.
But guess the zip is too large for our phone to handle, check it.
It's only system partition. Try flashing only system partition with odin if this doesn't work.

Hello everyone. So, let's start by explaining what I have did.
For a while I had the XtreStolite Odex 2.0 edition and I wanted to try out other ROM. I have factory reset-ed when I was installing the ROM using TWRP and I somehow managed to delete all the phone's internal stuff, but I can still boot to TWRP or download mode.
I have tried to flash stock firmware using Odin 3.10.6 ( running as administrator too ) and when it gets to sboot.bin it fails right away. I have tried using Samsung Smart Switch PC Software, tells me my device is unsupported. If I try to manually find my model using the S/N, the software fully downloads then gives me an error.
I have tried to ADB sideload from TWRP Advanced menu, whenever I want to flash for example xtrestolite odex zip ( named rom.zip for short ) it goes "serving:... 21%" and gets stuck. If I try to push a zip it says "error:closed". I am no big expert in ADB, I don't know how to install the latest version, and I can't download the full Android SDK because my internet is very slow. I had Bootloader and Modem 5.1.1
I am looking for a way to move the XtreStolite ROM zip into the phone's memory so I can boot to TWRP and install the ROM. I've seen something with OTG Cable and USB but I have no real knowledge of these. If it comes as a last resort, if someone could briefly explain me how would I manage to repair the phone using the OTG Cable and USB stick.
I also have a Nandroid Backup on my PC but I don't know how to move it to the phone's storage, because it's well, bricked. When I'm trying to copy files over Mount option in TWRP, it says that it cannot copy the file, the device may be disconnected.
I had Bootloader and Modem 5.1.1, also Windows 10. I can go back to 7 or 8.1 anytime it's needed.
Much appreciations.
EDIT: I actually repaired it by flashing a stock firmware downloaded from xda ( God bless you whoever linked the mega.co.nz stock fw link ) . Thread can be deleted.
You can also flash these via odin.

Hey guys im actually new here and i needed help with my friend's note 2. Apparently his note 2 was stuck at the recovery mode where it asks for emergency firmware recovery through kies but then after trying to connect it, kies did not show anything and whenever i tried to flash it with a stock rom using odin it gave a faliure at system.img while installing twrp trough odin was a success so i tried to wipe data off which in turn gave me more errors about data, system etc and it showed that it was unable to mount storage i.e. it showed both the internal and external storage as 0mb. I tried changing the type of the drive but it was of no use also the knox warranty void counter was at 1 at the download menu (vol down + power) if that is of any use.
Thanks in advance

update: after a lot of trial and error i have realised the problem is with the phone's partition and it doesnt have one at all nor does it show any partition before twrp flash which in turn led to the failures. So can anyone help me on how to create a partition for android?
P.s. at this point even my sd card is showing 0mb or in short it is not being recognised.

Greetings and welcome to xda, try this thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1923956
There will be an emergency firmware package in there that should be able to repartition your device. Make sure to read carefully as it can cause issues using the wrong firmware
Good Luck

Hello
I rooter and install TWRP on my galaxy note 5 (SM-920P) with success.
after I started my phone on recovery mode to install a custom rom
in the wipe menu I mistakenly checked the internal storage space.
after I found that my phone does not contain an operating systhem it contains TWRP
I tried with oden to install official firmware but its not working
please please what is the solution?
thank you
What error did u get on ODIN. It should work. Choose to reboot to download mode from TWRP and flash via ODIN.
If not, Find an OTG cable, put a Custom rom ZIP in a USB drive and install via twrp from OTG SUB drive.
Thank you
Hi Guys,
I'm having problem flashing stock rom or custom rom using Odin 3.13 or 3.14 version. I also encounter where my internal storage drops to 10GB from 32GB. I"m getting several errors in Odin like Auth Fail, re-partion failed using a PIT file from the extracted csc file firmware that iv'e downloaded and now I'm getting the failed to mount /odm (invalid argument). Recovering my backup file in twrp didn't succeeded too.
I need your help devs. I've attached a pic where the phone boots to download mode always.
Badly need your help guys, I'm running out of solutions.... please please.
Thank You! Thank you in advance.
This is sad. Not getting any help... I guess my phone is dead in the water...
1- download odin for your phone model forum and twrp specific to your device
2- open odin make settin uncheck auto reboot and paste twrp in ap before you go in phone to download mode by vol+ and vol- and power after switch off, phone goes to download mod
3- then start, after it passes green, you have to install specific files found in ashyx forum page
4- then wipe format data and advanced wipe- dalvik,system,cache,data
5- install custom rom of your choice and reboot to system

Okay I think thats not downloading mode that you were looking for. The screen need to turn blue/skyblue know that you're moving to the right direction. And going to this mode you need to search about it then come to Odin
