so i wanted to backup my oneplus one using twrp 3.0 and for some reason i decided to wipe the cache before i backed it up. I went to wipe (just the regular cache) and it kept trying to wipe but it never succeeded so i just forced rebooted it went back to twrp and backed up my phone. Once the backup was done i tried to boot it up and i was met with a boot loop. Then i kept rebooting my phone and no luck. then i tried to completely wipe my phone. well just a factory reset. it didn't work i was greeted with an error saying my cache is not mounted or something like that. so now i cant even wipe anything at all and i think twrp has a feature where you can access files from recovery and that doesn't work for me. adb isnt working either i was trying to push a file. What im trying to do is flash a newer version of twrp or try to adb sideload my same rom. but i dont have access to my same rom cause the links are down. my rom is minimal os btw. any ideas ?
Edit: I've fixed the problem by booting into fastboot and flashing a newer version of twrp 3.0.2. then i wiped the cache and it was successful. then i booted up and it works!

I am a relatively new android user but do enjoy flashing roms, kernels etc
My problems began when i was trying to flash a new rom on my Nexus 5
I was trying to flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2655722 but despite doing a factory reset and wiping the dalvik cache and cache it refused to boot in to the new rom
I tried to flash the rom multiple times but without success, eventually when trying to boot into recovery to try again i was greeted with an unthemed TWRP recovery asking for a password despite the fact that i had a custom theme and multirom installed I tried to proceed anyways but was greeted with E: unable to mount storage
In desperation i tried to solve this problem and found this

TWRP asking for password
After unboxing my Nexus 5, here's what I did:
1. Booted into bootloader
2. fastboot oem unlock
3. Flashed TWRP v2.6.3.0
4. Booted to recovery
The screen that greeted me says "Please Enter Your Password".
I can hit the cancel button below this which takes me to the normal TWRP screen. I then pushed SuperSU to /sdcard, but when I flash it it fails because it's unable to mount /cache or storage.
When I reboot to the system, it takes an awfully long time (approximately 30s) to progress past the "Google" screen, and then it just seems to sit on the booting animation forever.
Any help?
EDIT: Solved my own problem.
Hit cancel at the password screen, then go into Wipe and then do a factory reset by swiping. Then go back into Wipe and press the 'Format data' button. You have to type 'Yes', and it will take a few seconds. After that everything should work normally.

I now fear that i maybe without both a rom and all my files such as my music that was stored on my phone.
Is there any way for me to undo the damage i may have done to to my phone?
You can't recover the data. But you can push files over with ADB.

So I unlocked, rooted and installed Euphoria ROM on my Moto G today, and now I'm perplexed to find that when I select the "Reboot" option either in Android or TWRP, I immediately get shoved back into TWRP. Rebooting to Bootloader works as expected, rebooting to Recovery works as expected, but the normal reboot doesn't.
Also, when my phone is offline and I plug it in, it immediately lights up and boots directly into TWRP. I don't know why this is, but I'd like to fix it since it's hit and miss trying to boot into the ROM normally.
Can anyone help me pin point the problem? In all my years with Android I've never seen an issue with boot priority such as this.
Things I have done:
-I tried to decide on a recovery so I flashed PhilZ, CWM, and TWRP in that order from the fastboot commandline
-wiped system, data, cache, dalvik cache, and flashed Euphoria ROM
Thanks!
One thing I would suggest is to flash the stock recovery and try rebooting, even i had encountered this problem. Later you can flash twrp again and everything will work fine.
Are you getting any errors while wiping partitions

I'm having the same problem here. Wiping works alright, no errors at all. Although the built-in TWRP file manager is unable to see any files in the system folder.
5After installation of the image i when to the recovery to check if everything went well and after it i wipe cache and dalvik then restart system. Now is looping into recovery. Any help TIA.
EDIT: tried backing up in recovery and restore its still going back to recovery. Also tried flashing 3.0.1 still the problem persist.
EDIT: also if i dirty flash sultans rom will i be able to enter? I havent able to back up anything :/
About two weeks ago just before CyanogenMod's announcement of its closure I updated my Moto G2015 (1GB) to the latest nightly, which was CM14.1 released on the 25th of December, with its corresponding GAPPS version also released on the 25th of December (ARM, android 7.1, Full)
Yesterday the 7th of January my Google Apps decided that they didn't want to open, at first I thought it was just updating and since my battery was low I plugged in my device, I later realised that my device randomly went to a boot loop and stayed there. I grew impatient so I restarted the phone and went to the Recovery Mode (To Re-Flash the ROM), but to my annoyance the recovery (TWRP) just stayed on the 'Teamwin' logo forever, it would randomly go black then return to that logo. infuriated I turned on my phone and went to backup/reset and clicked 'factory reset'. it annoyingly booted me into recovery to reset the device, which of course I couldn't do.
Now the simple answer would have been for me to go and wipe the cache and data from 'google play services' and or 'launcher3' but I did, either it always shows 'calculating' preventing me from clicking 'manage space' or clearing 'cache' or when it did finally show, after I did click the button for the cache and or data to be cleared it would say 'calculating', and a quick check would discover that nothing was actually cleared.
Kind Regards, and Thank You to any help recieved,

Boot TWRP or CWM Recovery (not sure if it's still called CWM Recovery now that LineageOS has replaced it) with the command 'fastboot boot recovery.img' but replace recovery.img with your actual recovery image filename. If TWRP won't boot wait, sometimes a theme or corruption in the TWRP directory on internal storage can pause the startup of TWRP by several minutes, if that still fails boot CWMR and remove the TWRP directory or wipe internal storage.
Once you can get TWRP to boot properly, backup everything (MPT works in TWRP) and wipe and reflash, should be good to go.

Thanks for the reply, what you're saying makes sense and would probably work, but I found a simpler work around. I'm actually annoyed I didn't do it earlier.
So simply put, I downloaded my stock recovery which worked and then I just factory reset my device from there, that reset the CM14.1 ROM and let my Google Apps work again. Now about the recovery, I'm a bit skeptical about Re Flashing it, but I think I'll try it next weekend and post the results.

Have you tried it since you wiped? It might just work now that the reset wiped internal storage...

Right, so I reinstalled and flashed the latest version TWRP, when I opened into it, it took about 1 minute before it opened up, it ran a quick operation that I just glimpsed, it looked like it was wiping cache and user data, my phone was rebooted and I was right, my phone had been reset for the second time today (I'm almost a pro at reinstalling all my apps). I rebooted into the recovery and Look and Behold, it was working.
Thanks slot for your help and time.
Hi,
I recently tried to install a custom rom (Resurrection Remix) on the latest EMUI version which resulted in my device not booting anymore.
After several tries I gave up and wanted to simply use stock with root.
I installed SuperSU, but that did not show up in the application menu.
After that I recovered system and boot from a recent full backup and installed magisk.
That resulted in the device not booting anymore at all. This condition stays now.
I then reinstalled the stock rom via dload method, with a factory reset after, but it then started to be stuck in the blue screen with the honor logo.
Is there anything I can do? TWRP is gone, I only get the stock EMUI recovery.
This happened to mee too. You should try a wipe data and cache from recovery, then reboot. It worked for me.
P.s i flashed a stock recovery don't know if TWRP will work the same, try.
After the dload update the stock recovery is installed again, I wiped data and cache already, but that didnt make it work too :/
EDIT: Found the error: The /data partition is unusable in it's current state (f2fs). Is F2FS the default filesystem for /data or do I need to change it to ext4 or something?
