My phone somehow got stuck in a boot loop and I can't fix it. I don't know what to do. I cant get pass the start up animation no matter what I do.
I've tried the fast boot commands to flash and keep getting the error (i dont really know alot about flashing and never done it before but the that what i found suggested in the web..)
FAILED < remote: flash write failure >
I've tried the flash-all.bat file, but the lock state goes back to LOCKED when it reboots the device and I get the error
not supported on lock device
I can unlock the device when I type fastboot oem unlock, but if the device is restarted it goes back to LOCKED.
I've tried recovery mode and I see the below statements:
E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /ache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /ache/recovery/log

It sounds like your emmc is fried. not being able to lock/unlock your bootloader is a classic symptom

Hello everybody,
since I did a bad flashing, when I start the phone in recovery mode I get the following errors:

I have tried to wipe cache partition and do a data/factory reset, but without any luck.
When I try to do a data/factory reset it says:

Formatting /cache...

I tried to flash again from the sdcard, same errors appear. Lauching a file manager from sdcard is impossible too.
Concerning ADB, the phone is detected, but flashing give an error. Odin doesn't detect the phone.
Anybody can help me ?
Thanks in advance
So...I'm a little bit of a newbie when it comes to fixing technology, so I hope to be as clear as possible. All of a sudden my Samsung Galaxy s4 died few hours ago. It would just boot and get stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy s4 GT-I9505" screen (If I plug it to charge it remains stuck at the screen where the battery is grey and it has a white circle in it). Before that it normally booted up for like 20-30 seconds. Then it rebooted that way. Now, I can get to recovery mode, and what I get is the following text when entering:
E:failed to mount /efs (invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /system (invalid argument)

I didn't perform any root or flashing since I barely know what they are, I tried an emergency recovery and initialization with Kies by booting the phone into download mode but it says that my phone doesn't support it, which is weird. How big of a problem is this? I brought the phone to a local technician which said I should contact Samsung assistance because "the internal memory is gone" (as for damaged, I assume) but I don't think it can be right since again, I booted it up in the morning and for 30 seconds it was perfectly fine, I am thinking more of a corruption, somehow, of the files. Is there any way I can get out of this state? Can I recover any data from it? I underestimated the situation and I've never done a backup of the phone sadly... If it can help, when this happened I was on firmware 4.4.2. Thanks in advantage for any reply.

Do you have your warranty? I suppose that the hardware is damaged. In that case you will probably need a motherboard replacement.

Phone was bought in November 2013 so I suppose it's not eligible for warranty replacement

Greetings and welcome to assist. It sounds like your partition table is corrupt, can you get into download mode ? If you can try kies/smartswitch emergency firmware recovery
Good Luck

As I mentioned in the OP, I already tried the emergency firmware recovery, but both Kies, Kies 3 and SmartSwitch claim that the phone is not eligible for the emergency recovery. Of course, I tried performing these operations by entering in download mode and then connecting the phone to the pc to perform the operation but no luck so far. Other options? Do I need to flash a new firmware?

Try this thread, if the firmware doesn't work you could try mskips toolkit, that has an emergency firmware recovery. As a last resort you could flash a pitfile

I have rooted my phone, and I have installed custom ROMs, but afterwards, it took AGES to boot, so I decided to boot into recovery mode, and it said the following in the log:
-- Appling Multi-CSC --
E:failed to mount /system (Invalid Argument)

Any help? It's a Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-s5839i
Help would be much appreciated.
I can use every rom just fine. However, I need to flash stock rom but when I boot to stock rom it says "No Command". After a minute or so, the screen changes to installing system update, which flashes to black every second.
Stock firmware that I flashed is "J710MNUBS4CSF1_J710MNICE4CSD4_J710MNUBS4CSG2_HOME.tar.md5"
When I press Power + Vol up in the "No command" screen, this is what the text reads:
