Samsung Galaxy S7 SM-G930P: Failed to Mount /system (Invalid argument) - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Help! I cannot use my phone. I have access to recovery and bootloader but neither can accomplish anything because 1). Odin fails every time 2). My phone cannot find /system. I have tried restoring my phone to stock, but Odin fails. Are there any options left for me?
The bottom of my recover screen says "dm-verity verification failed ... " And "E: failed to mount /system (Invalid argument)".
Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I hope it's that easy. I'll try it tonight and post my success or failure.

I fixed mine by opening odin/prince comey version, then with phone connected choosing the option from the recovery that takes u straight into download mode, then flashing stock rom with odin

HELP!! Half-Bricked Phone

I did something stupid and installed rom manager, it corrupted my recovery. I restored to stock rom i found online using odin but it says you need to wipe factory settings to make it boot. The recovery is now the stock one but it displays error messages and when I choosed a command it does nothing. What should I do?
EDIT: I flashed another stock rom this time i could boot into the phone. Some of my apps went missing and superuser went missing. It was a little weird. The recovery still shows errors and no command. It says
"can't access to '/system/csc/VAU/system". I don't think I can root it again and install a custom rom. I dont know what is the right thing to do now. I just want to root it and install a rom
EDIT2: I installed another recovery called Amon-RA recovery and I still get errors. I am thinking maybe the recovery partition is corrupted. I get these errors.
E: Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command
E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl14
(invalid argument)
E: Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log
E: Can't open CACHE:recovery/log
E: Can't mount /dev/block/stl14

Samsung Galaxy S6 E: failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)

I bought my S6 with this error. I tried to flash it many times with Odin and many different roms, but after turning on my device it got stuck at the Samsung Galxy S6 powerd by Android screen. I then tried to Boot into the stock recovery and it shows e: failed to Mount /efs (invalid argument).
I then tried many diffent roms, but still the same Problem. Then i tried to flash a custom Rom (ozop) with twrp, but it showed "-mounting /system (or somethig simmilar)". I looked up on the Internet and found a fix witch needed root. So i tried to get root premmisson with supersu and Cf auto root, but it didn't work. In ADB shell it just shows "/ su not found in /sbin". Has anyone got a solution for this. Please help me.
Thanks in advance

SM-G930x Retail Phone Secure Check Fail : (PIT), help please?

So I got a hold of a retail G930x and was successfully able to install TWRP and factory reset with a stock image, only problem was that I never turned off the FRP lock, and when the phone was restarted while updating SuperSU my recovery was blocked. OK, no problem, just flash a stock ROM through Odin mode right? Well for some reason G930AATT1APB5, and G930FXXU1APB4, do not seem to work. At one point I was able to partialy boot into the stock recovery, but at another flash attempt my computer blue screened and I received the error message "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use Emergency recovery function in the smart switch PC software", but Smart Switch returns an error message of "Device Not Supported". I can still boot into Download mode and attempt flashes, but I can't seem to find a working ROM for this phone or a solution to the stock Recovery issue (which is most likely corrupted by now). Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
edit:
edit: so I flashed a recovery image file from ROM.G93xF.XXU1DQFM-v18.0.by.ambasadii.zip and was able to get to the stock recover screen. Unfortunately i get an error message saying "Failed to mount E: /system (Invalid Argument)
Update from external storage is disabled.

Galaxy s7 edge: E: failed to mount "efs" (invalid argument)

Hi, I really need help to fix my s7 edge.
Try to update and bricke, then try to put a few stock roms, all gave me error until one gave the pass in odin, to restart, I send to the recovery showing the error of E: failed to mount "efs" (invalid argument) (3 times) , I need help to fix it.
I managed to place TWRP and I put the supersu and the no verity. but when trying to use the adb it does not recognize the SU.
It stays in the samsung logo.
I CAN NOT TURN IT ON. I'm desperate, what can I do?
(I've already seen several forum posts and tried but nothing works)
