The phone is stuck in "ASUS startup logo" [Custom Rom] [LineageOS] - ASUS ZenFone 6 (2019) Questions & Answers

I have been using Lineage os as a custom rom for two months now(flashed it again a few times too without any problems), the other day I just wanted to install a fresh copy and delete the old os, so I followed all the instructions in the lineageos site
1. Booted into Bootloader - Flashed TWRP - Went to Install Flashed TWRP zip for a/b partitions - also flashed Copy partitions
BUT during the WIPE I mistakenly CHOSE TO WIPE EVERYTHING IN THE ADVANCE WIPE EXCEPT FOR (USB storage and Micro SD)
Flashed the Lineage os when I rebooted the phone it went on a bootloop to the bootloader every time. So I decided to restore the stock os had a restore file of [10 GB] but when I tried to restore it I got a extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255, I followed some instructions still got errors and also excluded some options in recovery like data and vendor and the restoration came through but when I tried again to install the lineageos the phone got stuck in the ASUS logo. Also I know the Lineageos flashed because I was able to go to Lineage os recovery from my bootloader
Please help me fix this.

[Q] Tablet won't boot or install custom ROM

Hi all - this is bugging me as I can't seem to find the root cause or a fix.
TF300T was running CM11 nightlies - last update applied was 04/05/14 and worked OK for a couple of days but when I tried to cold boot yesterday, boot loop half way through start screen. I wasn't bothered too much as I had a full backup before I updated ROM - however, restored backup and it failed to restore.
So have been trying to get a ROM installed but just can't and it's really annoying me. I have tried wiping & fresh install with several ROMs (CM11 2xnightlies, Omni, SlimROM) but all give the same result - boot loop. I have tried using both TWRP and ADB sideload
I have tried with SDCARD removed and get error * failed to write data 'protocol fault (no status)' *. SDCARD seems fine (can read / write from PC) but will format it anyway in TWRP and try again.
Any suggestions welcome.
Device details;
unlocked bootloader
recovery - TWRP 2.6.3
ROMs tested - CM11, Omni, SlimROM
SDCARD - SanDisk Ultra 64Gb
EDIT - knowing there was something corrupt with storage / system, I flashed stock then TWRP recovery. Booted into Stock OK but once I tried to install a different ROM, failed again.

[R7SF] Stuck in TWRP Recovery mode only, flashed rom but unable to boot into it.

After flashing TWRP and being successful, i installed LineageOS 14.1 and gapps as you have guided on your posts, i saw that there were some old folders that were left over from the many apps my wife have installed previously, so i decided to do a factory reset. After pressing factory reset, the phone restarted and booted into TWRP recovery, which then i clicked on "Format Data" from the wipe tab.
Things went really south from here on, i am unable to boot into anything i have flashed (i tried flashing LineageOS 14.1 and gapps). Once the rom and gapps are installed, the phone reboots back into TWRP again. it seems like the internal storage of the phone is still empty except with the 2 zip files i've put in. I am able to access TWRP Recovery and detect it as a R7S on my computer, but i cannot boot into anything else, its been stuck like that booting ONLY into TWRP ever since i've pressed "Format Data" which in this case is my mistake and i apologize, is there any solutions to unbrick the phone? Could anyone please help me? I would be very very thankful.
Edit: I have flashed a newer TWRP via TWRP itself under Install > install image. previously running on 3.0.2-2-r7sf-final.img but i tried downloading from TWRP website twrp-3.1.0-0-r7sf.img and flashed it vi TWRP since i cannot get into fastboot. phone booted up after wards into OS and made backups and kept it somewhere safe. was reading and panicking around the web for a good 10 hours

Problem booting TWRP recovery (Crash Dump Mode)

I has a pretty big problem of that Crash Dump screen some hours ago and i still can't get to fix it. Here is the story, after trying Havoc 2.0 rom i decided to go back to stock so in TWRP i erased the system, cache (dalvik cache and cache), data and internal storage (i wiped internal storage because TWRP just couldn't decrypt it even though the passwd was correct), after that i flashed the stock OOS rom and the TWRP installer (all these being booted on twrp), but when i rebooted into recovery the twrp splash screen just froze there, so i tried to boot twrp through fastboot, but then the crash dump screen apeared, this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/tool-msmdownloadtool-v4-0-international-t3798892 said this was a way to recover from that problem so i tried it, it worked as far as booting into OOS is concerned, but when i try to boot into twrp through fastboot the crash dump screen keeps showing up.
Any ideas?

It worked!
Now i'm installing all my mods again.
Thanks!
UPDATE:
Nevermind, it boots into twrp, but it wont boot OOS, i already tried erasing all the partitions (system, data and cache) and installing OOS and bluspark TWRP.
It turns on, shows the bootloader unlocked screen and then it reboots back to twrp.
UPDATE 2:
Fixed it by erasing all data on oneplus recovery, thanks again, my phone is back from the death (a quite unrooted one).

Phone unable to wipe anything via TWRP recovery.

About a month ago I installed PixysOS v2.4 for my device along with Magisk v18.1. Everything was working fine until today phone suddenly froze. I tried to boot to fastboot mode and restart device but to my unfortunate luck it would just stuck atWarning Bootloader Unlocked Screen and won't proceed further. I tried rebooting via TWRP by selecting recovery mode but no matter which option I select it would stuck at TWRP then.
Then I thought to uninstall magisk as it may have caused some error so I again booted into TWRP and flashed the latest Magisk Uninstaller but it would not go further after detecting my device system. I tried this 3-4 times then I thought to completely wipe out the system and install PixysOS again.
Now when I tried to wipe System,Dalvik,Cache and Data it is stuck at Wiping Dalvik Cache DIrectories...
I can still start TWRP by pressing Vol down+Start button but its kind of useless as it would not wipe anything!
Here is my device info:-
Device name :- Motorola Moto G Turbo Edition (MotoG3-TE)(MERLIN)
Os running :- PixysOs v2.4 based on Android Pie.
TWRP version :- 3.2.3-0
Magisk Version :- 18.1
Magisk Modules :- Youtube Vanced and Viper4Android.
Can anyone guide me how do I fix my phone?
Edit :- So I just realized that I have a Nandroid Backup already on my SD card. I tried restoring it through TWRP and now it seems something 'Internal' is wrong with my phone.

Tried Pixel Experience and LineageOS but it just won't flash!
By wiping everything you mean all of the options I see in wipe tab?

Flashing LineageOS 18.1 after using LOS 19.1 results in fastboot loop

Hello there,
I have some sort of a problem (although my phone is still working.. yet)
I recently flashed my OnePlus 6 with LineageOS 19.1 (coming from OxygenOS 11.1.2.2).
I flashed "copy_partitions.zip" first and then the official LineageOS 19.1 ROM without GApps,
but because I wanted to use some features, which needed at least the presence of Google Services, I flashed the "LineageOS for microG" (19.1) ROM.
Which worked like a charm.. besides I was very unhappy because of the lack of customization regarding color-theming and the changes made to the QuickSettings of Android 12 in general..
So I thought I could clean flash LineageOS 18.1 / ("Lineage for microG") to get the old theming back..
So what I did was installing the official custom LineageOS recovery from 18.1 (because microG had none for 18.1),
hit "Factory Reset" and afterwards applied the Lineage 18.1 zip over adb.
A message "Update package is older than the current build, expected a build newer than timestamp [...] but package has timestamp [...] and downgrade not allowed" along with the Question to install anyway appeared right after sideloading it to the phone.
I decided to hit "Yes" because I don't needed to backup any data from the phone and wanted to wipe clean anyways... (which I thought I did with "Factory Reset)
So I installed and afterwards rebooted to recovery to flash Magisk aswell..
After rebooting to system then, the phone entered the fastboot loop.
No matter what I do, it still doesn't boot to system after installing 18.1 from LineageOS recovery (also tried with the newest microG recovery from 19.1).
I also known you would wipe system, cache and data (and maybe vendor aswell) prior to a clean custom ROM flash (via TWRP)..
So flashed TWRP 3.6.2 (latest) for enchilada and tried to wipe my system, vendor and cache, but didn't manage to find "system" or "cache" on the advanced wipe menu, so I formatted and wiped data and wiped vendor.
Then installed LOS 18.1 via TWRP also..
But same problem - fastboot only.
also after my TWRP journey, sometimes when flashing the LOS recovery and booting it, a message appears on screen:
Failed to bind mount /mnt/staging/emulated/media/0 [...]
The thing is, I can install LOS 19.1 (microG) without any problems and it would boot,
but I just want to downgrade and I found no guide for my device (or any with ramdisk and A/B slots)..
And there is also no link to MSMDownloadTools for Android 10 (because onepluscommunityserver.com is offline)..
The links from this post and some other posts I found aren't working anymore..
- Is there a way to go back to LineageOS 18.1? What would be the intended way (not doing a downgrade but flashing clean)?
- Is my phone softbricked somehow? (partitions broken or corrupt?)
- Is it a firmware problem?
(I am on security patch from November 2021)
But I don't know what exactly happened to my firmware when flashing Lineage 19.1 over OOS 11.1.2.2
This is my first post as it is my first Android phone/flashing experience in general.. so I hope I got everything right from all I found out until now..
I really appreciate any help / even if it is just saying I messed up and need to go EDL mode... (if it truly is the case)
Thanks in advance.
You people are great!
