Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 - G1 General

Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
I've managed to get into a right pickle with my Dream 32B
Now when I try and update from SD it gives me an error message saying
"E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory) E: Can't mount SDCARD:"
I can still fastboot to a recovery rom and use adb but I cannot flash any roms to get the phone up and running.
I have tried 2 different SD cards and reformatted them both. Both of them worked fine before yesterday.
I have tried "adb shell mount /sdcard" and this gives the same error
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

can someone help me or no

I got this exact same message. After a few days of troubleshooting, I concluded it was a broken SD card slot. Sent it in for repair to HTC, and it was fixed.

got the same problem when i was rooting my phone...
to cut it short it's 95% SD card format error, you need to reformat your SD card from recovery mode as in Amon-ra 1.7 or something...
that actually solved my problem

sdcard slot does not work!

First off thanks for all the wonderfull help. I finally managed to flash jf1.51 and get the phone running again. Kinda hard 2 do without a sdcard and when fastboot didnt work!!!!!
Now that the phone is running again I STILL have no sdcard slot!! The phone just says...
Removed SD card
The SD has been removed. Insert a new SD card to increase your device
No one has had this problem....
********Original********
We will start with what happened up till that point.
I originally was using haykuro hero with apps2sd (Original Tmobile 1gb sdcard) It worked but slow and crashing on just about everything.
Did the multiple speedups / optimizations for hero.
Switched too Superheros beta v1 hero rom. (No problems other than slow/app crashing)
Ordered a new Transcend 4gb class 6 sdcard.
Waited until I received the new card before switching too Superheros beta v2.
Setup the partitions on the new 4gb just like I had done with the 1gb (and the 1gb had no problems except 4 being slow)
Updated to superheros beta v2 rom. Everything went fine, had like 9mb free (I used the full Rom) After the phone was setup and rom was booted. Used the app2sd app built into the rom. Moved the apps/cache 2 sdcard. Rebooted phone and had a bootloop (kept replaying the htc boot animation)
So remembering reading when hero first came out. I assumed that some of the files for hero did not transfer too the sdcard (Remember when people had problems with app_s.zip)
So I go into the bootloader mode (home + power) to reflash the rom and receive this error (Now during this time I still have the 4gb in)
Installing from sdcard...
Finding update package...
E:Can't mount /dev/black/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Installation aborted.
--------------------------------
I have tried 4 different sdcards with 3 different sdcard readers and every one of them has this error. I have tried wiping but didnt change anything.
It is like the phone cannot see any sdcard anymore. I can adb but I dont know anything that could help.
Thanks

**Edit**
Have tried partitioning to only fat16 and fat32 on sdcards.
Have tried fastboot with dreaimg.nbh and still does not detect sdcard.
Have tried putting app_s.zip into ext2 partition.
Have tried Downloading different roms and rom types.
Have tried "mount /sdcard" *error mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: No such file or directory*
Have tried Pushing app and app_s to /data from update.zip
Have tried copying app and app_s to /mmcblk0p2 from a linux os "Phone will not detect either partitions" (/mmcblk0p1 is fat32. /mmcblk0p2 is ext2)
Have tried editing mountd.conf and init.rc
Everytime I try and apply update.zip I get these weird files on the sdcard. (http://www.pcxpressrepair.com/android/qxdm_20080904_032341_1.dm , http://www.pcxpressrepair.com/android/qxdm_20080904_032607_1.dm There are just 2 that I uploaded.
Also here is a Logcat of when the phone is trying to boot (bootloop)
http://www.pcxpressrepair.com/android/logcat1.txt
During bootloop here are the mounts
--------------------------------------------
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 48.2M 0 48.2M 0% /dev

/dev/block/mtdblock4 30.0M 1.1M 28.9M 4% /cache
I have had similar problems but it was because of a bad download. Or I disconnected the phone to quickly from the USB before selecting remove.
Wrong forum. Mods, lock this thread pronto!
Also I received a letter from tmobile saying that they are going to drop me because of roaming too much. I would be nice to get this worthless phone running again. I have until July 7th 2 switch carriers. Because my G1 is basically a paperweight now I was thinking of getting the HTC lancaster with AT&T but it will not be on the market in time.
By the way the phone is acting and no one else having this problem. I am lead 2 believe that this is a hardware issue with the G1. But, every time I try and flash the rom I get that weird file on my fat32 partition. So I would assume that the phone can still write to the sdcard, even though it cannot mount it. So don’t know if it is hardware or not. But, tonight I will disassemble the phone. (Because I’m not getting 2 much help here)
Also if apps2sd or cache failed when the rom was running for a moment what would be a way to restore it back (If the phone worked and no apps2sd is still fine 4 me!). Every time I try and link back 2 the phone it cannot find the directories that are on the sdcard (obvious cuz the sdcard is not mounted) I had this problem before but, the sdcard was mountable so there was no problem.
Would there be a configuration file that I can pull, modify, and then push back with the app2sd/cache info on it. I am moments away from pushing the entire update.zip 2 the phone. I am running out of options on what 2 do or how 2 fix.

phone wont even turn on now.
Will it blend? Post results.
As soon as I get a blender
Same Prob
I'm having the exact same problem, has anyone found a solution yet?
Same issue here! Reformatted, wiped the works and nothing. And I have searched everywhere and like you it seems hardly anyone has this same issue. If I can't get it resolved soon I am getting the phone replaced.
I have got the same problem on my vodafone HTC Magic. Can boot to spl, fastboot to recovery rom but cannot mount SD Cards. Anyone found a solution?

Cannot Get Phone To Start Anymore

So today i rooted my phone installed JF1.41, i partitioned my sd card IN MY G1, since i have a mac and for some reason it wont partition the card right. Then i did the apps2sd deal... Then i wanted to use a theme, well that screwed everything, and it wouldnt get back to normal or even start again. So completely formatted my card, which now has NO PARTITIONS(i guess just 1), and i think the phone is trying to read files on a partition that dont exist now, and NOTHING is working. Anyone on here that can help? I am rather smart with this stuff, but really am going to need someone to help me. I need my phone tomorrow.
Thanks.
How did you reformat your sdcard? Did you check in parted to see that you in fact only had 1 partition again? I suggest you flash a new updated ROM like Cyanogen 4.2.5. That has apps2sd script built into the rom. It will do it automatically so you don't have to mess with all that.
ok ill try it right now and see
I know FOR SURE i dont have a 2nd partition cuz i formatted it with only 1

you're going to need a second partition for apps2sd to work. I suggest you do that first before you flash a rom, or else you will just have to end up reflashing.
Ok Downloaded Cyanogen4.2.5
This is the problem i keep having when i try to apply the update it say
Installing from sdcard...
Finding update package...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Installation aborted.
So i think it has to do with the fact it wants to read /dev/block...etc from the partition of the sdcard that is now non existent
problem is i have a mac and cant properly fromat the 2nd partition (ext2)
unless you know of a way
the way i first did it was using some code i got off of here to have the phone do it itself... now that i cant start the phone i cant do the partition
what recovery do you have? I suggest you put this one on your phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566669
It partitions your sd card for you.
Also for Cyanogen, you need to flash the htc OTA update one, then flash his update for those to work.
ok...
so i found some plugins for the new Snow Leopard OS for mac called MacFuse 2.0 along with its counterpart fuse-ext2 and i partitioned my card
you might want to upgrade to ext3. it's faster than ext2 and runs smoother
just tried to flash the recovery found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=566669
with no avail and tried to start the phone(power+camera) and said no image
heres what it said for the recovery
/ # mount -a
mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /sdcard failed: Invalid argument
mount: mounting /system/modules/modules.cramfs on / system/modules failed: No such file or directory
mount: mounting /system/xbin.cramfs on /system/xbin failed: No such file or directory
I mean, what i want to know is how to build the file format back on my sd card so itll work, or build it so it will look on my actual phone... People put up the code to have it switch where it reads things from, there MUST be a way to switch it back manually as well
Use fastboot and write the recovery image
here's a link to fastboot
http://developer.htc.com/adp.html
then when thats running plug in your G1 and turn on holding Power and camera when the screen turns on you might have to press back to enable FB but once its enabled type in terminal
Code:
cd *where ever your recovery image is*
fastboot flash recovery *recoveryname*.img
reboot
can someone hook up a quick step by step on how to hook my phone up fastbooted? I have a mac and i can get the phone to say fastboot, but im lost after that... If you want to reroute me to a different thread, please verify that it REALLY has the info before posting it.
i have been trying to find the name of the device and im getting
/dev/tty.Bluetooth-Modem as the device name, but a Permission Denied thing... now i cant just go click something in the phone menus, since i cant get the phone to start, so is there a way to get permissions through the Terminal application?
that error you get when you type mount -a is normal continue as instructed:
flash_image recovery /(whatever your recovery image is called)
if you have adb you could try parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 and type print to see your parttitions.
so i can get it to say it flashes the recovery, but still not starting
so when i try to do any updates it says SDCARD wont mount
any input?
Looks like im going to go for a broken record, until SOMEONE can help me figure my phone out... I need to get it running, and i know someone can figure it out

"Can't Mount /sdcard" during nand backup

I get this error when I try to do a nand backup:
Can't mount /sdcard
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
Help!
Thanks,

The Error of Terror
Ruben,
I had this exact same error today.
I was using Cyanogen and my SD Card became corrupt and would not mount when I was flashing ROMS ( in recovery mode)
What I did was use a new SD Card and Download leaked unofficial official Froyo ROM (HTC Incredible) onto the new SD Card on my computer. My Incredible was then able to mount thatSD card and install the ROM using Nandroid.
Once installed I had to reformat the original SD card using the unofficial official Froyo ROM (HTC Incredible).
Good luck! Hope this helps...
I'm out of town right now and my good SD card isn't with me. But I'm on a cheap temp one that can barely hold files.
When I get back home I'll try it.
Thanks for the response!
Why thank you! Worked perfectly.
What does it mean if I get this message but it DOESN'T interfere with anything?
I get this when I tap "Backup Current ROM" in ROM manager. The backup completes correctly, I have no trouble flashing ROMs, no trouble mounting to PC, no errors or messages when mounting partitions within recovery, but this always displays when I call for Backup Current ROM. Anyone have any ideas?
Thx...

Cant mount internal/external sd vibrant

I cant mount the internal or external sd card on my samsung vibrant
Earlier i transfered music to my phone and it was working
Im running Axura 2.0.6 with the JK6 modem.
I cant ODIN since my computer wont recognize it.
When plugging in USB it simply makes a sound but has no notification.
Tried to do a system wipe on the phone and when rebooting it says denied.
Under phone storage it states Format SD CARD for internal but nothing else.
It does not say i can unmount it.
Ive tried the sdcard fix applicable via CMW but it fails to reboot into recovery mode
and when it does it says installation aborted.
I have renamed the sd fix to update.zip
attempted to flash other roms via cwm but im just stuck.
and still unable to mount.
any help?
EDIT: Cant open /cache/update.zip (bad)
then i try again and it says
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
Device or Resource Busy

Sounds like you had a lagfix that wasn't disabled before you tried flashing. I would ODIN back to stock. ODIN doesnt recognize your phone in download mode? If not, then you re most likely SOL or need a JIG to get it working. BTW, this def didnt need its own post, it could have EASILY been added to the other "cant mount" posts
If its the normal 2.2 mounting issue. Take a gander at this.

NEED HELP PLEASE deleted partitions off emmc

Been semi bricked for hours... I messed up the emmc partitions using adb gparted dev/block/mmcbkl0 and now nook won't boot.. not even off SD card
the only thing i can get to boot off sd card image is rootpack which boots me into recovery.. i tried everything but no matter what I do in recovery i always get errors regarding the mounting of my cache and data, which obviously is because i deleted the partitions...
when i try to edit the partition table from adb parted denies me permission
please help... i'm very new to the nook and everything I just said I learned in the past 4 hours that i have been reading through forums trying to fix it..
thank you
In this very forum..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=958748
Besides, what makes you think you deleted the partitions? Did you?
on adb parted i went through every single one of the partitions and deleted them... only left one intact.. so i'm pretty sure i deleted them..
I have already tried flashing this and it flashed just fine however when I go back into the recovery menu I get the same error
E:\ something something can't mount data/recoverylog.log
E:\ something something can't mount cache/recoverylog.log
and four others just like it..
if anyone is willingto help the errors i get in clockwork recovery are
E: Can't Mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Can't Mount /cache/recovery/log

And why in gods name did you do that?
Anyway, get the repartition/fix tool that's in these forums.. I think in Development, might be in General. It just works.
