first some back story:
it's been a long time since i did a lot of rooting so i lost a lot of knowledge.
I got the phone close to release in the EU.
There was only BETA stage twrp at the time.
So i flashed this unstable twrp and rooted with magisk.
And i run stock Oxy Rom.
But the main problem is, whenever i boot into recovery, twrp ask me for a password. (i have none) so i press continue.
And it then ask for unmodified system partition. (not sure what to select here)
But when i swipe to allow modification, i can't find the root of the phone? i cannot find the download folder where i flash updates or other modified apk's.
It's all just numbers and random letter. i have no idea on how to proceed or how to update twrp safely without falling into boot loop and other problems.
Some help would be appriciated. Thank you.

and which of my problems does this solve?
First of all flash official TWRP now. Makes no sense to use the unofficial version because its not stable.
Enter PW -> decrypt data for TWRP
No PW -> hieroglyphs
I successfully used official twrp, version 3.2.2 and then did a "format data" and then used fastboot again to install the full rom.

U have corrupted u r data partation u have to factory reset along with wiping internal storage and then transfer u r rom File through MTP in sd card of phone and then flash rom.
Or u can flash fastboot flashable rom via fastboot mode.
Then install your official twrp via fastboot mide after installing rom.
Now twrp will detect all data from sd card

Can Anyone help me, please? I have somehow the same problem. The phone literally itself without doing anything started doing a download(odin) mode loop. So I deleted data, dalvik, cache, system partitions without internal storage since it has very very important files for me and a lot of projects for the university!!! and before and after the folders in internal storage in twrp shows as random numbers and letters. I don't know why since when the phone was working normally I was protecting it by fingerprint and a password. And when I installed a stock ROM after it without wiping the internal storage. The storage is showing in negative. If anyone can help me this would be super appreciated and helpful. Thank you!

If it is already showing folders with random file names in the internal storage it means it needs to format data (to remove file encryption) which deletes all files in the internal storage.
Don't wipe system because it removes your OS.
Always secure backup before messing your device.

Sorry I thought you are also literally same issues with OP but then it's not. Are you able to reboot to twrp? And what is the whole story of you device? I mean if you are rooted, what ROM you came from and all that you did before the issues occur. And did you tried to switch slot? Since you wiped everything with system included then you have no OS installed. Did you tried to flash OS via OTG? Or flash via fastboot.
I flashed another os without deleting the internal storage but the storage is now showing in negative values.

Wow this thing sucks! I'm really appreciating my Samsung with Odin right now! So, I have years of experience rooting and flashing Samsung phones with minimal adb experience. My buddy from work asks me if I can try to fix his shield tab that he F'd up trying to flash a rom on. Come to find out he never unlocked the bootloader or flashed a recovery or rooted the dang thing, just tried to flash the rom over stock like a numbskull. We thought it was dead forever because the only thing that would mount or connect in adb was the side load through the stock recovery. So, I finally got it to connect to fastboot (don't ask me how, I don't know), unlocked the bootloader, and flashed twrp. Now it won't flash supersu in adb sideload, so I put it on an SD card (which now magically mounts and works now) and flashed the zip in recovery but it says at the very end of the process while trying to update the partitions that it can't mount the data and system partitions so I'm not sure if I'm actually getting root or not and if so if it's permanent even though it says "success" at the top after flashing. I have no way to tell. I think this is because they have been accidentally wiped. Do you think it is safe to try to flash a rom in recovery from external sd card? And if so, which one? I have no idea which version bootloader, kernel, or os is, or was, on this device, I'm not familiar with any of the roms for it, and I'm not sure what prerequisites there may be for some of them....
Thanks for the help!

I had the same Problem with the partitions you discribed, have tried wipe them, change the file format and change it back?
I flashed a lot of Roms from the external SD Card and it worked every time.
I think you should go with Bliss Rom. ( Just try Lollipop and Marshmallow)

I can't wipe them because they won't mount. It's as if the partitions were erased completely. Not like the partitions were wiped, but like they don't exist at all anymore...

TWRP, wipe ,Advanced wipe
If that doesn't work just try installing a rom, boot it
If that doesn't work try this
Tried all recovery options and tried flashing bliss 6.2 with no luck. It says that it flashes successfully but also shows some errors about not being able to mount the system and data partitions. Then when I try to reboot it gets stuck at the nvidia logo (this is the closest that I've gotten to booting a rom). I can provide pictures if you want. I'm going to try the steps that you linked to as soon as the files download.
While trying to root and after twrp is installed completely, I wanted to install beta-supersu v2.48 zip, its successfully installed.
But couldn't boot my device again, it's stuck at second honor logo.
After that, I tried to do the all process again, but same.
I've tried to wipe cash, data,l and dalvik many times but not succeeded.
Finally, I wiped again same before and wiped system (not internal memory), but nothing.
Now, stuck at first logo but I can access recovery which is twrp and can access also fast mode.
Am I still could access all data in my system or it should be deleted?
Help me please
I'm on 6.0 android emui 4.0.1

So you think already deleted but I didn't wipe internal memory as I said.
And it's till me in wiping process it's usually to wipe that 3 partitions but I added to them system partition later.
And about update files I've read ota files and another is oem stock recovery, which one should I use and will be better to to found ball data?
And if I can't recover my system how to recover all data later after Installing new system ?

Just use Huawei hisuite to backup all your contacts, apps. Notes, pics etc to your PC.
Flash boot and image files from the firmware you were using and restore your backup using hisuite.
Another way is to flash stock recovery from the latest firmware and then use dload method to force upgrade your phone and restore the backup.

Oh. I apologise. You can use adb to make a backup of apps and system but in your case you don't need system partition so still at a loss.

Flashing stock ROM via fastboot doesn't wipe your data. Is your bootloader unlocked? Next time please make a TWRP back up (even if it's just system partition) before you flash anything.
Yes sure it's unlocked, but that way am I still can access my files?

Hello, i'm a bit in trouble with my internal storage.
Yesterday i wanted to update to newest havoc os so i prepared as usual and wiped system and data under advanced wipe in TWRP ( twrp-3.2.3-0-enchilada(mtp) from joemossjr ).
Then things went strange... op6 reboots itself and since there was no system installed got stuck. i rebooted to TWRP and it started like first time install.
I wanted to do the TWRP Setup but TWRP freezes everytime and after some seconds the device reboots.
I tried different TWRP (joemossjr, eng.stck), tried flashing manually with fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img and even with Tool All In One from mauronofrio
but only recovery that doesn't freeze is newest official TWRP 3.2.3.0.
But now i can't get access to my internal storage. The TWRP filemanager and adb shell are showing weird folders ( see attached jpg ).
It seems something is corrupted... i also tried to flash stock op6 rom in fastboot "OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_015_all_1808102118_770880-FASTBOOT" with flash-all-partitions-fastboot.bat.
Seems to work but got stuck at bootanimation...
flashed back official TWRP and i think i have to install magisk now but don't know how to do because i have no access to my internal storage.
at this point i wish they would have included a sdcard slot
suggestion anyone?
It's not corrupted, but it's encrypted, when you flashed the havoc rom you kinda ****ed up with the encryption method so now you got files that are encrypted and that you can't decryp, so your solution is to format your internal storage, sorry for you, and if anyone have another solution i would take it
do an adb sideload for magisk zip , that should help
adb sideload sadly doesn't work, just "Starting ADB Sideload feature" ...
and on cmd when i try to adb sideload i got an "error: closed"
can't figure out why the files should be encrypted... makes no sense to me
now i flashed flash-system-boot-vendor.bat
phone boots till startup wizard and then after few seconds freeze and reboot

Format data. Problem fixed. This is the ONLY SOLUTION that will work.
Yup, you need to format the data and start all clean and i hope you did a full twrp backup
yes i do always make a backup before flashing something... my problem is i don't have access to files on internal storage.
Data partition is not my problem because all my apps are stored with titanium backup but in the freaking internal memory.
i wiped data partition but it doesnt help... now i have all folders like after complete reset. but i dont know how to get access to my old files in /sdcard folder.
i think of deleting internal storage also and start from scratch and try some data recovery tools... maybe i have some luck.
use Tool all in one

Did you ever actually try to flash the Havoc update? What's going on is that you flashed a rom on the August security patch and OOS is still on July. You can't roll back to an earlier patch. Only a rom on the current patch will work.
If it doesn't work, as several have said, you have to format data, not just wipe. That will unfortunately, erase everything on your phone, but there's no other way to go back to OOS.
ok iElvis... things start getting interesting
hmm i want to try that but how should i be able to do that...
how does it work flashing the havoc with all in one tool or could it be done in fastboot mode per cmd?
the phone came with oos 5.1.5 and used that a while then with xXx NoLimits 2.4 over it for a few weeks.
after that havoc os from 6.8.18 for a month or so and i want that as daily driver.
then yesterday updated with fresh install to version from 28.8.18 and setup everything then after reboot wifi was complete dead and SIM also.
flashed newest smurf kernel over and all worked again till next reboot.
i decided to install again from scratch and thats the point where things getting weird...

Yep, that's the security patch issue. Once you're on a patch, going back to an earlier one will break encryption. I don't believe there's any other option beyond formatting data.

This was happens every day after when i try to mod my device.
When i see weired Folder. I boot to fastboot then flash fastboot twrp. Img.(this will shows all folders with normal names)
Then flash liquid remix rom(its my saviour)
Then flash twrp.Installer.
Then reboot to Recovery and restore my liquid rom backup and boom its boot to everything normal.
Here i want to say that keep one liquidremix rom in otg pendrive.
After fastboot twrp command when u gets working twrp.
Install that rom via otg, and flash twrp installer and then reboot back to twrp and then clean flash rom u want it will work without doing formatting or fastboot flashing stock rom which erase everything everytime
@ whizeguy... did that as mentioned before and gave me the freeze after first time reboot
@ pankspoo... ok i cant understand what is causing this issue but if you say that did the trick for you than i will buy me a otg adapter and check that out.
silly that i already deleted everything and sadly with no affort...
but i dont understand why im not able to boot anymore even after deleting everything

Fastboot method of installing rom will work 100%, have u used flash all. Bat (just unzip ur downloaded fastboot rom, connect phone to comp in fastboot mode and click on flash all bat file) command while installation.
Use that command because u have soft bricked u r device.
That installation will boot to normal oos rom.
I think u r doing something wrong.
Hmm thats exactly what i did.
In cmd there are some errors like sparse blabla but finally it completes but with freeze and reboots during startup assistent.
I bought an otg adapter today. Flashed liquid remix and that worked! All seems fine no freezes and reboots but wifi and signal still broken...
Very confusing

That is what im thinking of...in fastboot there are no infos at bootloader and baseband Version. unfortunately my efs Backup is gone since internal storage messed up.
If i could recover some data that could help but 2 tools i tried yet didnt work.
Tomorrow ill try making raw dump and see If this would help.. still looking for the best guide or method

just installed your Hannah-twrp.img and it booted just fine everything works thanks
Can you correct me if I'm wrong. So once I finish this process. I can go in and out of recovery with out computer. Also Then I can put apps directly into priv system with correct read and write,plus it will stick on reboots. Just wondering to .If this means I can flash custom kernals and roms with no worries other than normal issues. Thanks for your work.
Thank you so much for this!

Are u on stock with root I got easy solution for u to follow if fstab guide above is to hard
Hey skullkid383, thankyou for your work on this!! Twrp flashed and works NP. But I cannot decrypt. Following steps, the step you mount before pushing in twrp adb does not work, no such folder. The push goes thru fine although the mount did not. Format data worked, I can see internal storage and move things to and from PC through tether. But when I reboot its sticks on moto screen. When I flash back to patched boot for magisk the is boots to an "decryption unsuccessful" msg and asks me to reset the phone endlessly. Any help pls?

1st make a backup just in case:
Ok here we go flash twrp and magisk beta then patched boot.img boot system get a file explorer with root permissions edit fstab.qcom find it here: /vendor/etc.
just replace current one with one I'm uploading
in guide to make easier to find wipe then u should be good of course flash magisk beta after u wipe as well
Hmm still decryption unsuccessful. About to reflash to stock. Sorry for the slow response. I have the next several hours free to test. I don't have an SD card, so i rooted the old way, using your patched boot, then used es file explorer to replace fstab, rebooted to confirm, and fstabs permissions had changed from rw r r to rw rw so it stuck. once I format data and internal becomes visible I move magisk over, flash then reboot and get dencryption unsuccessful. Also even flashing the recovery before formatting resulted in it being lost every reboot, only after format data it stuck.

Ok I am going to build new one in awhile my PC screen broke idk when but until then the link to Hannah twrp is down till I fix it
Ah man, so instead of fastboot flashing everything back to stock, I figured I'd just flash stock recovery back, after the decryption unsuccessful route. Flashed stock recovery, when it booted and asked me to reset the phone instead of going to twrp this time it went to the stock recovery image of a reset...phone booted, got to looking around and holy crap I'm decrypted! flashed your twrp and now I'm rooted with twrp and decrypted!! So maybe boot twrp the first time when formatting data and decrypting so when you boot and the device asks you to reset because of decryption failure it can use stock recovery to complete the process, then flash twrp for the finish? Your incredibly helpful man, again thankyou for all of your efforts and work on this!!
Still wanna fix twrp found a issue in formatting data I wanna fix but it shall take some time to get it done link is down til then cause it's something that needs fixed first before I put it back up
So today I flashed the official OOS rom downloaded from official OP website.
After I flashed it I tried to connect the phone to the PC to load magisk into it but the folder was empty and locked, meaning I cannot load anything into it.
To "help" the situation my TWRP custom recovery is gone. I only have acess the OP recovery I guess.
So I need help to change this bugged or corrupted ROM into a bugless one, but I have no clue on how to do it without internal storage acess and no custom recovery!
Thanks in advance

The only other ways i can think of are:
SDcard
Download Mode which is this case is fastboot, you could flash a new recovery\rom with that AFAIK and did.
Correct. I later found out that I could flash a new ROM by fastboot. I think it complety wiped my encripted partition and fixed it.
