Hey guys my phone is stuck on google logo, i have bought it in this condition. Its i9020T and wrong cwm is installed. I am able to put phone in download mode but odin wont recognize it, tried flashing different rom gives me abort with state 7, also when i try to wipe anything it gives me E: Can't find MISC, and E: Can't find CACHE. I have CWM 2.0... I figured wrong CWM can cause the problem, so my question is: how can i update CWM and get phone back to working state?
Hello, I know I am an idiot for this.
But I tried to create my own rom, following a guide carefully.
It was a miui rom and I skipped only one thing, because I couldn't find it. I don't think it was anything important that could have caused my dilemma.
To get to the point.
I have the Nexus S 4G
Using TWRP Recovery
I made a backup of my stock rom
I flashed the Rom(I created) and it failed to flash.
So I tried to restore my Stock rom. Once it said it completed.
I tried to reboot and it just brought me back to bootloader screen.
I'm panicking now.
So I use my root toolkit to flash CWM recovery and tried to install a
new rom on my phone, but it's not working
when I try to boot up into a new rom, all I get is a black screen.
HELP PLEASE. ((
edit: when I went back into TWRP to check the log, it said "can't mount SD"
and I went to MOUNT and Sdcard was mounted..
Hey, I'm a new user at android and recently i try to install a new custom rom to my moto g...
But then it was when all went wrong. First the device was taking ages to wipe data (even after several reboot's), then i gave up and reinstalled the twrp custom recovery again... And now i can´t do anything with the phone... It's stuck on "warning bootloader unlocked" sign, and when i enter twrp recovery and try to wipe again says "unable to mount /system."
I've tried to reinstall stock firmware but it didn't work... I forgot to say when i reboot to bootloader in twrp it says "No OS installed!"
Any thoughts on that? Thanks :fingers-crossed:

Hey all!
I've been trying to install TWRP on my google pixel (32 GB/ 4GB). It runs Android 10, has an encrypted filesystem and the boot loader is unlocked. I booted into fastboot mode, then used fastboot boot twrp.img to boot into TWRP and it worked perfectly fine. Then, after decrypting, I tried flashing the TWRP zip I had on my phone. But it failed to do so, giving these errors - Failed to mount /system_root (invalid argument); Failed to mount /vendor (invalid argument). When I checked the mounted partitions in TWRP, system and vendor were unchecked and I couldn't check them.
Next, I tried to use fastboot flash recovery to flash the TWRP image directly from fastboot but this didn't work either.
Finally, I tried to flash a TWRP image after booting to TWRP. I chose the install to recovery ramdisk option but it didn't install, giving me the same failed to mount errors.
So right now I'm stuck at this point. Any help will be really appreciated
Thanks

You should indicate which image you are booting and flashing. There are several and from what I gather, not all are compatible with 10.

Try 3.3.0 instead (for both). The last I can find on my records that I used is 3.1.0.
Edit:
fastboot boot image
Flash twrp zip
Flash magisk zip
Reboot
Should be rooted with twrp installed.
This is how it used to work at least.
Okay I will try that out thank you!

Hey! I tried what you said, booted into twrp using fastboot. But when I entered my password to decrypt data it says "password failed, please try again". This did not happen when I used the other img.

I read through the twrp thread. I don't think they ever got deception working on 10. Not by installing, just booting.

So should I install the img via fastboot?

I don't think you can on Android 10. You can try but I think people just booted twrp when they wanted to use it.
I think I'm having the same problem or at least a very similar one, I get the same errors in TWRP (started with ""fastboot boot twrp.img") saying unable to mount /system_root and /vendor but i am still told installation was successful anyway. Unfortunately, when I reboot to recovery, it seems to try and start TWRP but the phone restarts after the google boot logo and this will happen every time.
You can get the older verson of (temporary) TWRP Tulsadiver suggested using past the decrypting stage simply by removing your password/pin in settings > security > screen lock but using this version didn't help me at all.
I have tried going back to an earlier stock rom using google's images and trying to install TWRP again but this didn't work either.
Please let me know if you get anywhere with this.
I also have the same problem. It just saying unable to mount /system_root (Invalid argument)
And the /system is read-only,
I need to modify the files on /system partition, what should I do?
I've tried 3.4.0.0 and 3.3.0.0 and 3.6.9.0-9-0 but all failed.
Thank you all!

I have this problem too. Pixel sailfish on Android 10, tried to install TWRP zip file using the TWRP temp boot, and it will say unable to mount system_root and vendor but still successful, but unable to boot to recovery (restarts after Google boot logo).
Any idea how to install TWRP on Pixel with Android 10?
