I think I goofed! help please

ok so I was getting very short on available space so i went in and started deleting things (my fault I know). I have been on 4.2.2 so all my files were in "0". I figured since they were all in that file and I had everything doubled in that file, i started deleting everything in my other file and just kept everything that was in "0". Went to flash a new Rom and all my files were now gone. I deleted all my backups in that file also (I'm kicking myself right now).
So now I'm stuck in Recovery with nothing i can do. What can I do now??

Maybe try to odin

OK, so I flashed the unroot files through Odin. Went through successfully, but now I'm stuck on the stock splash screen. Any ideas? some reason when i try to get into recovery, it just vibrates.

Give me the link to the odin file you flashed. I'm curious why it was an unroot flash. When you boot into recovery, You can copy a new ROM file into your sdcard and flash a new ROM via ADB.

I'm starting to freak out a little bit here. I'm in odin trying to flash it back to stock and I'm not having any luck here. Someone got some time to help?

I can now flash into recovery but my up and down buttons dont work, so the only option I have at that point is to reboot, which then send me into the splash.

SOB!!!! Anyone out there that can help me here??

Holy hell. It booted up. That could have been the most stressful 2 hours of my life.

E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Has anyone figured out how to repair this error yet??? i've spent 4 days reading forums and google and whatnot and still i cant get this problem fixed. either solutions are for i9000 and not for infuse so procedures and roms are different. those who have infuse have not solved this error so i have no steps to follow. i've flashed like 7 different roms (some stock some modded) and nothing! i'm at my wits end i've been on and off on fixing this phone since 2013..... and anyone help me figure this out?? i'll answer all questions asap!

What's the consequence of this error? What are you doing when this error comes up? Any other messages?
I remember this one popping up before while flashing and it not meaning anything. Everything flashed fine. Mind you, this may have been with my primary phone, I cannot remember.
This Infuse thread may be of some help (or not, let me know):

Consequence of the error is odd... I plugged my phone one night and left it charging in the morning the phone was off... When I wanted to turn it back on I got this error. This is not the only error.... I get another one E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD
As for the link I've read that thread over and over and it was of no help because I did everything he did and still no results

Sounds like a hardware error. Are you able to go into download mode? How about recovery? Do you have CWM, TWRP, or stock recovery? If you have the first two are you able to make and restore backups, and otherwise access the SD cards?
Finally, are you running stock, or a custom ROM? I see you mentioned earlier that you switched ROM's so even if it's happening with stock, then it's becoming less of a software issue in my thoughts. But if you have full access in recovery, then that would squash those thoughts. At that point, I would try to find a working ROM.

Yes I can go into Download mode and I'm able to flash successfully it just won't reboot afterwards.... It gives me the errors. The only recovery I can go into is the stock Android blue text menu. My phone is rooted and before this error I had cwm... After the error and trying to flash and recover I can't access cwm. I've tried gtgs unbrick stock rom, entopy's kernel, a couple of modded roms like aeon or legend and nothing I get the same results... Same error. But all flash successfully. Right now I'm in stock GB rom

If you don't have ClockWorkMod I am assuming you are flashing all your ROMs through download mode. I thought that only stock ROMs were available for that. I learn something new everyday.
Anyways, it may be that Download mode is silently getting the write error when it comes to that partition. Did you try putting CWM back on?:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1107881
I am really curious if you can access your (internal) SD card outside the boot process. If the partition table is shot, there is a process that repartitions everything, which in theory gets everything back to normal. It involved Odin, but I forget what the file was called. Pretty sure it was CWM itself, but I'm not sure (first reboot after installed whatever through Odin, I remember a voice alerting me to please wait while partitions are updated - about 5 minutes). I will have to look it up when I get home.

That's what it's looking like. Your cache partition looks fine, so must be your root partition (or whatever holds kernel and core bootstrap). If it was a desktop computer I would say either the partition table is bunged up or the tail end of the hard drive is inaccessible. I am stumped on how to get to the former. I will look at home for the Odin CWM file I had so you don't have to flash a whole ROM. It may just sit still forever like the CWM install you have (or it may not work at all because mine may be designed for i997R - Rogers kernel), but it's worth a try, since it's the only thing I can think of.

Try the Infused Gingerbread kernel one, after putting an AT&T stock rom back on. Guess I should have been more specific, if you were to try the Rogers route. Think it will have the same issue, but the above file is the one I used for CWM.

Just did it...same result....i think i'm throwing the towel in.... maybe a year from now i'll come back to it and see if anything has changed... j/k but really i think we gave it a real go. i'm always open to more ideas but for now i think its possibly fried inside... thanks for all the help though!!

No problem. Best of luck!

a bit late on the reply but you might want to use the unbrick / Return to stock method in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705260. I had this issue too trying to install new rom. This should at least get you passed the error onto working phone if it's not hardware malfunction. From there you can install cwm and do whatever. Hope this help.

if your infuse is the AT&T one you can try this as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1524081

normal Heimdall is confusing but the one click isn't confusing if you read what's on the OP but that sad this is that it doesn't have root :/ and what i have noticed is when odin doesn't want to recognize your phone heimdall will....and just to get root and recovery i flashed twice with heimdall second time for the boot loaders...then i flashed through odin for the root with recovery version

I remember fixing this problem by flashing (Odin) a "dbdata.rfs.tar" file from one of these forums. It was long ago so I don't quite remember where it was and what exactly my steps were. As far as my memory goes, I flashed I997UCLB3 via odin and then flashed "dbdata.rfs.tar". That fixed this problem. I will attach the "dbdata.rfs.tar" file on this post, hope you find a solutions :S. Sorry if you have already tried it >.<

Boot loop - verity verification failed

I have tried to installed marshmallow via Odin on my galaxy s6 SM-920F. It's not the first time I'm flashing a device but this time reactivation lock was on and Odin would not finish. Restarting the phone is not possible as its stuck in a bootloop and shows blinking "Galaxy S6" every time and recovery mode says verity verification failed. Didn't not know reactivation would do so much damage as I thought it would just ask a password in case a thief tries to flash the phone.
I searched everywhere but could not find a solution and hope to get some expert advice here. Please help

Get the phone into Download mode and flash the ROM again?

Flashing again won't help because of reactivation lock and there is no way I know I can disable that without entering the phone itself.

Eek. Tried flashing the original firmware you were running prior to trying to upgrade and doing a factory reset?
Might let you log back in and disable the lock.

Already tried reset or reinstalling current version. The lock won't let it happen. Upon restart the phone is stuck in a loop.

Reactivation Lock prevents only custom (not Signatured by Samsung) images to flash. So, you should able to flash stock ROM.
Did you try SmartSwitch?

The reactivation lock is a security to prevent use of the phone in case of theft. Will flashing the stock rom bypass that securtiy? Then it will be easy for someone to use the phone in case of theft.
Just to make sure i do it the right way, how do i know the exact firmware for SM-G920F unlocked version. Which country should I choose?
Is there some advanced software for repairing phone with software problems?

Try Samsung Smart Switch. It might help.

No it will not remove the reactivation lock. If the phone is yours then once you get it to boot you should know the account login information to bypass the Samsung or Google lock.
I would just download the most current firmware for the phones original country/carrier.

Whatsl access does it give you?

The reactivation lock is a security to prevent use of the phone in case of theft. Will flashing the stock rom bypass that securtiy? Then it will be easy for someone to use the phone in case of theft.
Just to make sure i do it the right way, how do i know the exact firmware for SM-G920F unlocked version. Which country should I choose?
Is there some advanced software for repairing phone with software problems?

Update 1: I have been able to flash the phone with system and boot file. Now when starting the phone, it just displays the Samsung Galaxy S6 logo and stays like that. What to do next?

It's a remote desktop program. I'll remote in and see if I can have any better luck.

Hmm try this
Power off then hold volume up + home + power to get into recovery mode then do a factory reset > wipe cache > flash system.tar > flash boot.tar

For the time being, I can't enter recovery mode but only download mode. Any idea why?
When I charge the phone, only a grey battery logo with lightning appears but no indication that it is charging(green blinking dot at the bottom). Do you think the battery has been depleted completely?
And now it does not power on with the power button to show the samsung logo as it showed some time back, but I can still enter download mode. It's so confusing now. Wondering if a software issue is causing it not to charge as some hours back, it was fine.

All at once, but apparently you cannot downgrade. I spent hours trying to flash PF1 from multiple sources and always failed on flashing boot but then I tried flashing PL1 for the heck of it and it worked like a charm the first time.

How do you flash them all at once? Do you use Odin 3.12.3? Is there a certain order that the files should be in? Thank you.

All at once. Just look at the filenames and load each in the appropriate slot.
Example:-
AP_G550T1UVU1APF1_CL8180604_QB9902404_REV00_user_l ow_ship.tar.md5 *.zip goes in AP slot
BL_G550T1UVU1APF1_CL8180604_QB9902404_REV00_user_l ow_ship.tar.md5 goes go in BL slot
CP_G550T1UVU1APF1_CL8180604_QB9902404_REV00_user_l ow_ship.tar.md5 goes in CP slot
CSC_TMK_G550T1TMK1APF1_CL8180604_QB9902404_REV00_u ser_low_ship.tar.md5 goes in CSC slot

Thank you, I did it and it worked!

The only thing you are doing wrong is skipping over the posts that explain you cannot downgrade to APF1, it will not physically let you. Other than that you are doing everything right.

Look at the firmware you are trying to flash. It ends with PF1....the firmware that succeeds it is PL1 and after that in not sure. Once you update from PF1 to another firmware you can never downgrade back to PF1, but you can downgrade from other more recent firmwares to PL1, why I am not sure.

can anyone help me plz i need an imei certificate for the smg550t1 / on5 metro pcs or a back up of any on5 efs

Ah, ok seems simple enough. Would you still happen to have your PL1 files that you can upload?

No that was a long time ago....may I ask why you want to flash old firmware? It will prompt you to update to the newest anyways as soon as you boot up the phone so it seems counter productive...

As above (and FYI), my SM-G550T1 current build is MMB29K.G550T1UVU2AQC4. I'm just a novice and rooting/unlocking/flashing my first android. Do I need a copy of the stock ROM or will my Nandroid backup suffice? If so, I understand that the PL1 version is ok for my to use if need be. I guess the PL1 version is here on this site somewhere or I can Google it?
Thanks for all your attentiveness and insight....I would have been right among those flashing myself into a veritable slap-happy dither had I not benefited from the prior posts.

Blue led

I rooted my Samsung S6 SM-G920F via Odin.
I tried installing Xpose. But once i did, My phone cut off, And now its flashing Blue led? I can access Download mode, and Recovery, As well as the Samsung logo screen. But sometimes it goes past the Samsung logo to a black screen.
I have tried using Odin to do a recovery and it just isn't letting me?
Anyone know how i can fix this?

bro , if you get Setup Connection you can try unplug and after that re plug again or try another usb cable
or another usb hub of computer and do after that odin can recognize your device .
what is exactly full name firmware you try to flash it will be like that " G920FXXS5DQA3"

Yeah, My problem is, I have no clue.
My only guessing searching through fimware that it could possible be G920FVIR5DQA2 that's a guess.

ok bro if you have that firmware "G920FVIR5DQA2" this mean you have latest bootloader that you know by "5DQA2" now try flash again your firmware and after that you can to enter stock recovery but you will lose your root after flashing stock rom so you must must to re -root again to pass the samsung logo or you will stuck on logo after flash

My phone doing process in Download mode. But now its done, My phone is stuck in the "Samsung" Logo with the blue light still flashing?

you can try make soft reboot by (hold vol down+ power ) it will restart and should pass samsung logo but when you have root and knox trip i think it will not allow you to pass samsung logo so you should install twrp recovery and make backup your efs folder for safety reason and make install cf-root of your device and flash it in recovery
