I unlocked the bootloader today, uploaded TWRP, flashed the magisk. I cannot use sdcard in TWRP. There are folders with random characters. I also can't backup in twrp. How to fix access to sdcard? It has an android 10 stock rom.

That's interesting... zippyshare.com blocks german ip addresses by default. I'm glad to have tor browser installed on my device.
Ok, you have to format /data. TWRP can't decrypt your storage the way it should normally work.
Make sure you don't wipe it! It must be formatted!
On TWRP mainscreen open wipe > in the lower right corner you find format. Your data gets only encrypted when booting into system. So let your device boot once before starting TWRP again.

A wipe only erases all single files and folders that are stored on /data while it keeps encrypted.
This flag is a part of the metadata/partition table.
I don't know... try an older version of TWRP.

NOOOB accident,
but it is done. I've erased my internal storage and now, when I boot, theres no notification or menu bar (bottom). I can't access my "SD card" cuz it doesn't exist anymore. So even If I download a ROM and try to flash it, I can't even find the download.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
To note that I don't have access to a computer!

From Recovery I wiped the internal storage... I thought that would just erase the content of it, guess I was wrong. lol
My phone wokrs, I just can't leave any application once I've opened it, I also can't install new apps. So right now I'm running XtraSmooth 3.2 with ElementalX 2.05 Kernel.
In TWRP, erase storage just wipes sdcard. Though maybe since youre on lollipop, you need to run the restorecon commands. Please tell mW you have a terminal emulator installed?

Do a full factory reset. If that doesn't work, you WILL need a computer
You could try repairing your system partition in recovery then flash a ROM or factory image.

If you get one, best bet is flash entire latest (5.0.1) factory image. Then you can flash recovery if you want and root from there.
how do I do that without the developer option and USB Debug enabled? I have search and they all say to enable it... ill try to figure it out until someone tells me how...lol

USB debugging is nothing to do with this. USB debugging works in android only. Factory images are flashed from the bootloader using fastboot.

Who the hell keeps spreading this misinformation? Developer options and USB debugging are irrelevant to fastboot mode and recovery. USB debug mode is only pertinent to issuing ADB commands within the OS. It is completely meaningless to the bootloader.

just trying to change ext4 to f2fs through TWRP. as i remmember i only wipe data, cache and dalvik. But after i formatted my data, system, partition to f2fs, my internal storage (pic, music, Tibu Backup, downloaded Zip Files) are gone. is this re-formatting thing is also wipe my internal storage? or i also just accidently klik to wipe internal storage?
Formatting implies wiping. It is starting a filesystem from fresh, even if you are formatting in the same format.
when i flash a rom everything goes well until after 1 min a message pop up and tells me to enter a password to start android ... whatever i enter a new messge pop up and tells me that decryption unsuccessful " the password you entered is correct, but unfortunately your data is corrupt ..... to resume using your phone , you need to preform a factory reset "
i have done this and this message appear again .... so please if anyone knows how to fix this help me please

I upgraded to the latest Q4 beta. When doing this following instructions when flashing in TWRP it said to flash the file from USB otg since you couldn't flash from internal storage.
my question is, once you have Q installed as I do can you never flash files from internal storage? i assume this must be the case, or i have something very wrong with what i'm doing. I can't mount my internal storage at all in TWRP or see any of the files.

Everything works but decryption.
We may have to wait until official q comes before decryption works.
You may find ways to run unencrypted using search function. I know it has been talked about in the forum.

yes, i know what you are saying with encryption when you can't decrypt it still shows everything with crazy decrypted numbers like 8784322qzzwerei, etc. Even if i turn off my security and boot into twrp (i'm running the latest version i believe 3.3.1-50 according to the twrp menu) it can't see anything on internal storage. when you go to select storage it shows 0mb under internal storage. if i plug in a usb otg it immediately shows and reads that.
if i want to select a file it says select file from internal storage (0 mb)
I have things installed to slot A. these slots i'm not used to using but maybe someone when it boots to twrp its not on the right slot or something? any ideas?

Has the rom booted yet? Did u wipe? Nevermind forgot on q it just shows 0mb
U can try switching slots but it might put u back to rom u had before.
As was previously stated, TWRP cannot decrypt data on q. TWRP will have to be updated to address this. It will be the same for everyone.
Once you boot into rom, all your data will be accessible.
Maybe try fastboot boot twrp.img as that may allow decryption

even if i remove all encryption from my device the system still shows at 0mb. which means you can't flash anything in twrp from the sd card.
i'm trying to figure out why i can't get magisk vanced to work and i assume it is because the flashing in magisk isn't occurring correctly.
so does everyone show a system in twrp for q at 0mb? if what i have is normal and the norm, fine but that was the reason for this thread to list the differences/limitations of twrp in q.
I believe TWRP can't access the internal sdcard due to the change in Q called Scoped Storage:

This is also why Magisk vanced isn't installing properly

Currently decrypted state, and running the device unencrypted aren't the same. Even with your fingerprints pins removed if you look in Settings/Security you'll see your device still shows as encrypted.
OnePlus 7 forces encryption by default. To run your device unencrypted you have to format the internal storage (wipes everything pictures media etc) and make sure you flash a special disable force encrypt zip every time you flash anything system related in TWRP.
Its a lengthy process to get it running unencrypted and if you forget to flash the special script even one time OP7P will force encrypt on boot and you have to start over. Its not for everybody but I know a lot of people running this way, myself included.
This should all be fixed with and update to TWRP but who knows how long that will take.
Not sure if this is worth anything or not, but it's decryption related: https://gist.github.com/mauronofrio/af29bad34ad87a1a957d193794f0bf5f

On my Pixel (original) with TWRP 3.3.0-0 and Q, I am able to do everything normally, including decrypting, dirty flash, cutstom ROMs, factory, nandroids, etc .... However, /system and /vendor won't mount. But, it works anyway!
The scoped storage is still a pain in the butt.
Hello erveryone,
I have a very weird issue. I tried to install the last one oxygen today but when I gone to TWRP, it didn't ask me for the decryption password, so I couldn't find the download folder.
I looked on forums and found a solution, swipe file extension to ext2 then ext4. I worked, at least, I could mount the data partition but I couldn't find the download folder.
So I tried, to wipe data and reset data factory but now, the device is just booting, you know, I see the two small with balls rolling around the red one.. I waited for more than 20 minutes but nothing happen.
How I can fix this ? For now my device is not usuable !!
Thank you in advance

I have no idea what you did there
If it does not currently boot, try this:
in the TWRP->Reboot menu, switch to the other (currently not active) Slot and reboot
If this fails, go to the TWRP wipe menu, then use the button to format data, and try both slots again
This kills all your data, including the internal storage with your pictures etc, be aware
If that fails, get back in touchmaybe you accidentally formatted data to ext4

Next time, (if you don't use twrp super often) if twrp fails to decrypt, disable or erase the password to the phone in the settings. This way twrp will not ask you for a password to decrypt the internal storage. After your phone is all flashed up, put in a password for your phone via the settings.
Hey, I've been using a bunch of ROMs for a while, and recently this has become a problem.
Basically, when using Project Elixir or a MIUI ROM, everything works fine.
But, for example, when using crdroid, Evolution X or AncientROM, after rebooting the device, it just doesn't boot, it bootloops.
This might be related to something about Magisk, but not sure.
Also, this only happens after doing the setup.
Can anyone help, and is anyone else facing this problem?

If you are changing ROMs you should format (note: format - not wipe) the data partition after flashing the new ROM. Of course this will also delete the contents of your internal storage, so you should backup your internal storage before formatting data.

Then it seems to me that the problem may be with something that you are installing after installing the ROM.
Perhaps start with a clean flash, setup the ROM, and do not install Magisk.
