Hey
I'm trying to change from Prime to Revolution ROMs, but during wiping, I seem to be hitting a problem. When coming to wipe /data, it says it can't remove bootanimation.zip. I'm trying to go in via adb and do this manually, but it won't seem to let me mount /data as read write.
I'm using adb shell while in recovery, and it isn't giving an error message, just constantly staying as ro. This is using clockword recovery 3.2.0.1.
Anyone know what else I can try?
Thanks for your help.
Do you want to give it a try with root explorer?
Forgot to mention, since I've tried wiping, it now just bootloops. Recovery is all I can get into.
edit:
Just to make it clearer what's happening, I'll do it step by step:
- Load recovery, and open adb shell on my PC
-Mount data in recovery, check it in adb shell and it shows it as read/write
-Go to delete a directory or file, and it say's it's read only, check mounts and it's gone back to ro
-If I unmount and remount, it will go back to being RW, but then the same as above happens.
-My problem is when I try to wipe or format in recovery, it gives an error saying it can't delete a certain file
Managed to fix it now. It appears that while using the Superwipe Full script for Revolution ROM, the file table got completely messed up. I used parted to reformat the data partition as ext2, and I can boot now.
I've managed to get that awful Rom (Destroyer) Manager off of my TF101G and have got Rogue on via PERI and now I'm trying to flash the stock ASUS ICS Rom but can't delete the Dalvik Cache because I'm unable to mount /data
Code:
- - Wiping all user data - -
Formatting /data...
Formatting /cache...
Formatting /sd-ext...
Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure
Cache wipe complete.
Formatting /cache...
Cache wipe complete.
Wiping dalvik-cache...
Error mounting /data!
I'm assuming that /data is stuck on read only?
Manually fixing permissions and then mounting /data also shows the same error.
HELP :crying:
Hey guys, i didn't found my problem in other topics, so i opened a new .
So here is the deal, i have the Kisadworx ROM installed now in my Samsung galaxy 3 i5800, and already tried the Kyrillos and both of them have this same issue. When the phone shutdown for low battery, i put it to recharge and when i boot it, it wiped all i have saved. Apps, configs, widgets....just everything. i have no clue why...some one have faced this issue before?
Note: when i enter in recovery mode and try to wipe data/factory reset it shows a message:
E: can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E: can't open /cache/recovery/ log
E: can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I don't know if this error is related but ok ....
Plz someone could help me?
I had this issue days ago, and it happened to me while I simply only turned off and on my phone.
This is probably caused by bad data and cache(?) partition or by bad (wrong) filesystem used. Try re-flashing STOCK rom eg. XXJPQ and over it custom rom of your choice. If the problem persists, try flashing custom kernel (g3mod) and convert file systems like this:
stl6 - ext4
stl7 - ext4
stl8 - ext2
I never had any issues with g3mod kernel's recovery with theese filesystems.
In gingerbread ROMs I had never issues with data or recovery.

Do you have an ext partition on your phone?
I got into similar problems with the scripts related to ext partition long ago
I too get the recovery error and it is not of any problem to us . This is solved by using g3mod kernel
hey guys, i followed as twinky444 said and it apparently worked. I reinstalled the stock ROM but a got the samsung bootloop, then a tried again and i made it, after, i installed the kyrillos 10.5 and it''s currently working, with no problems of data lost. I think it was some corrupted data problem. Thank you very much guys

If u checked ur available memory when u had the problem, u probably had 0.00kb available. Just saying.

If youre going from ROM that uses other filesystems than stock samsung's RFS filesystem such as ext2, ext4, so by flashing the stock ROM causes the bootloop WILL be there. (because the stock kernel doesn't support other filesystems than RFS) You need after flashing stock ROM pull the battery, reinsert it, reboot into recovery by pressing 3-keys combo and then "wipe data - factory reset" in recovery and then "wipe cache partition".
After this, the /data and /cache partition gets either mounted again or reformatted (not sure) with the rfs filesystem and the system will be able to boot.
BTW/little hint: You can see for couple of seconds after flashing the stock rom the phone boots into recovery, shows a couple of lines and there are 2 lines that are RED and say something like
DATA: blablabla... !
CACHE: blablabla... !
This process applies to the ROMs such as Purumod, Kyrillos and maybe others what have other filesystems used than the one used by the stock ROM (RFS).
Thats the description of the "bootloop" problem.
BTW... glad we could help and this has been fixed!
Title says it all. a lady brought me her moto g and on the screen all it had was no command and the android with the triangle !. so i booted it in to the bootloader and installed a custom recovery. tried to mount the sd card so i could recover her data off of it and it failed to mount so i tried mounting /data and it wouldnt mount and it says /data directory doesnt exist. /system would mount and several others would mount. so my question is, is this phone f***ed or is there a way to restore the /data directory through fastboot flashing?
Thanks for your time

Try and reflash the system partition and boot into android. Then look for /data. /data might be corrupted...
after updating my m8 VERIZON to lollipop using stock exe ruu,completed sucessfully,starting to update applications arrives to 288 then phone restart and stuck on htc logo ,tried to enter recovery do hardreset but can't do that with error messages in recovery can't mount /data ...etc,
then tried to re-flash the ruu but this time I got error in all partitions fail-pu ,tried to do the soff package from external sd also got same error,I did flash twrp recovery tried to format data with no luck with error messages /data can't be mounted /cache can't be mounted ...etc and internal storage shows 0MB.attached pic of my current status.
I tried to install a custom rom, somehow the stuck in boot up screen. I got in TWRP and found that the /data partition can not be mount. How can I get /data partition back?
Try formatting
