I think my tablet is done

I still think that the problem is /dev/block/mtdblock5 got hosed and needs to be setup again.
I see a lot of web-pages/threads about partitioning sdcards but cannot find anything good about partitioning nand.
parted is already installed in clockworkmod so that is half the battle.
With the Coby at the ClockWorkMod recovery menu then from the PC "# adb shell parted xx" does not work. You have to first toggle over to the Coby with "# adb shell" then at ~# parted will work.
Two useful info commands I found so far:

~ # cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00a00000 00080000 "boot"
mtd1: 00500000 00080000 "kpanic"
mtd2: 0b400000 00080000 "system"
mtd3: 00400000 00080000 "splash"
mtd4: 02800000 00080000 "cache"
mtd5: 10500000 00080000 "userdata"
mtd6: 00a00000 00080000 "recovery"
mtd7: 00100000 00080000 "misc"
mtd8: 00100000 00080000 "tcc"

~ # cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name

31 0 10240 mtdblock0
31 1 5120 mtdblock1

31 7 1024 mtdblock7

179 0 15637504 mmcblk0

mmcblk0 is my 16GB sdcard

Parted can show info like:
~ # parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
GNU Parted 1.8.8.1.179-aef3
Using /dev/block/mmcblk0
Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.
(parted) print
print

(parted) quit
quit

Parted can create/edit/delete partitions but I don't yet see how to get this running with nand.
 
yeah that is about what I am thinking I already reset the partitions on my sdcard. I thought that was going to work with all of the stuff I was reading but it didnt so its a matter getting to the partition on the nand and resetting it I read somewhere that someone had the same problem wth his phone and he spent a day on it and bought a new one. well my wife wont let me get a new one yet so I am hosed ha ha. thanks for all your help man I thought I was going to have to bump this post to get help.
 
well if anyone has a broken 7015 that still boots I wouldn't mind buying it off of them. I tore mine apart to see what it looks like inside. if anyone wants pictures I can post them. or any info on the battery looks like with a quick connect and new battery you could keep the 7015 going for more then 300 charges. I think I am going to wait and buy a new tab or buy a broken one and swap. that is my plan for now
 
Ouch!
OK here's Beethoven's Funeral March for the little guy.

Looks like the conductor is bashing an android tablet.

that is totally what I looked like yesterday poor little guy. lol thank you for the music and your help. by the way I think I figured out how it happened. one of my sons was playing with it and it locked up so I was doing a factory reset well my other son told me while it was resetting he came up and pushed the reset button. He said he thought it was locked up and saw dad do the same thing when it wouldn't work. needless to say my son finally admits that to me last night as I was coming down of my kyros bashing high. so yeah. did I say I love my kids and would never hurt them. OK I am just reminding myself. so now I surf ebay for a cracked screened kyros lol
 
I wasn't quite ready to punt. I've had Linux partitions get corrupted and need re-formatting. I think that was all that was needed, just reformat the 5th partition where data goes. I just didn't find out how quick enough. Still I learned more by trying.
 
well the tab still works the back is just off I wanted to see what it looked like and if I can change out the battery. if we can figure out a way to reformat that partition I can put it back together. i didn't actually bash the tab lol. I just popped off the back it still boots and what not. so in theory how would I reformat that partition. If you ready to go again ridgeland I am game. I am having android withdrawals anyways I am going to do something stupid and waste my savings on a xoom.
 
Scoot, let me know if you are still interested in a broken 7015. Mine has video problems, and about two hours on it. See my posts in this forum ( from ckuter ) about the details.
 
what if you dont have clockwork only stock recovery because i did a factory wipe and lost everything even the stock browser so i couldnt download the andexploer to root device again. so what i did was downloaded the update zip put it on the scan disk on the top and not in sub folders and when i go back into recovery and hit apply update zip it says cant locate install failed... please help
 
I registered to say that I just was facing this problem and googling the solution when I found this thread, but I just got it fixed on my phone!

I have a Galaxy Nexus (cdma LTE), and i accidently ran
fastboot -w

which basically wiped everything. I had the same error you did in clockwork. What worked for me was I flashed the stock recovery back and I was able to do a data wipe from that to get things back to normal.

phew...
