POCO X3 NFC TWRP Issue (Failed to mount /system_root) - Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC Questions & Answers

I flashed unofficial TWRP Recovery V3.4-15 as published on XDA. I first took a backup of existing data in TWRP. Then when I tried to Wipe or format it gave me the error:
Failed to mount /system_root (invalid argument)
This message keeps apperaing when tried to flash ROM and even try to go back to my backup. Can anyone please help me how to solve this issue???

UPDATE: Somehow I figured it is related to Mount issue. I went to Mount and unchecked read only mode. Now I am getting two erroes. Ye it sucks more.
Failed to mount /system_root (permission denied)
Failed to mount /system_vendor (permission denied)

Brother, I have done flashing OrangeFox it still gives these errors. Format data doesn;t work, nothing works. It just gives this error. I am really stressed...

@pocosuryauser you will probably be more satisfied with this one

Do a NXT-L29 TWRP backup will resolve the issue ??

You have to wipe /data. Then you don't have this issue. To wipe /data you have to write "yed" on the prompt

You can try to go back to stock rom with the rayglobes tool. Select "unbrick" section. It will flash all partitions to stock.

Mutlirom Recovery Update---->Bootloop

Hello all
I just updated the multirom recovery after a year of successfully using it with 4 different roms, which 1 of them is ubuntu and now am stuck in a bootloop.
Whatever rom I try to boot it kicks me back to the rom selection screen. It must be something wrong with multirom recovery because even when I select to boot into bootloader or even Shutdown the phone from the multirom menu it just bootloops to the same screen again.
I'd really appreciate any kind of help you can give, it's extremely important I don't lose my roms. I want to save the phone as is.
Any ideas? Would really appreciate it.
-Regards.
I can't install any version of Multirom through twrp recovery. It always gives me error 7.
I also can't install a new rom. It says "Failed to create rom folder(Read only file system)".
I flash the AK kernel succesfully but at the end it gives me these errors:
E: Unable to mount '/data'
Failed to mount /data partition!
Updating partition details...
E: Unable to mount '/data'
...done
E: Unable to mount storage
Click to expand...

Is there something rom with my file system?
Please, any idea would be really appreciated.

Encryption failed - device will not work

Hi,
Im noob at this so please bear with me.
Ive got this Tab2 which will not work. Im interested in fixing it(if at all possible)
I have no idea what had happen to it prior to this error.
Problem:
When starting and went trhough the boot logo the device shows "Encryption failed" page.
with further text:
Code:
Unable to complete encryption due to interruption. Perform factory data reset(erasing all your data) before use. After resetting, try encrypting device again.
Tried:
booting into recovery and resetting data/factory, no result.
when entering recovery it says:
Code:
"installing system update, no command" and enters the recovery.
then it lists:
Code:
Android system recovery <3e>
under menu there are some errors:
Code:
"Manual mode"
e:failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
can't mount '/data' (invalid argument)
E:failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
E:can't mount /data/log/recovery_log.txt
and a lying robot...
--------------
when trying to delete/factory reset the unit
it show all ok:
Code:
-- Wiping data...
Formatting /data...
Formatting /cache...
Data wipe complete.
Rebooting gets device into previous "Encryption failed" page.
I tried to flash custom recovery with odin but even when saying pass it does not work, I cannot boot into either twrp or cwm.
tried the trick without rebooting and going straight to the recovery from Odin.
did try with sdcard and flashing the recovery but it fails to flash that way.
also tried to apply the stock rom with odin but it fails evry time.
is there hope for this tab?
please assist.
regards, DMB.
Forgot to add the device:
Code:
GT-P5100

16GB

Error flashing ROM's since "semibrick/bootloop"

Hey guys,
Few hours ago, I Installed Poco x3 Europe ROM in my Global Poco X3 (with XiaoMiTool V2), and didn't start, it was in Bootloop. (Still don't know if this was a problem or not, I don't know what happened me that)
I solved it with MiFlash and flashing the lastest global rom "surya_global_images_V12.0.7.0.QJGMIXM_20201221.0000.00_10.0_global"
Finally, MIUI loaded, I install the TWRP, tried to flash crDroid ROM and these error appeared:
Updating partition details...
Failed to mount '/system_root' (Invalid argument)
Failed to mount '/product' (No such file or director)
After that, I don't know what I did, but I restarted and I didn't have any OS, phone starts automatically in Fastboot mode.
Again, reinstall the lastest rom with MiFlash, installed MIUI again, installed TWRP again, and I tried to flash LineageOS ROM:
Updating partition details...
Failed to mount '/system_root' (Invalid argument)
Failed to mount '/product' (No such file or director)
I retried to install the LineageOS again after that, and some extrange messages like:
patching system image unconditionally
patching product image unconditionally
After that, I installed OpenGapps Pico, and received Error 20. (I tried rebooting to TWRP again and flashing gapps again and same error)
Finally I made a reboot system, and LineageOS started, but without Gapps installed.
As you can see, I am newbie in the ROM world, I don't even know when to do wipe's (dalvik, cache, system) and format data, if before or after flashing ROM's, but yesterday, I installed ResurrectionRemix, ArrowOS, WaveOS and Pixel Experience ROM's without any problem.
What can I do?
Sorry you all for my bad english.
Best regards.
Since this happened to me, everytime I want to flash a clean ROM (European or Global) through XiaoMiTool V2, phone never work and start bootlooping in first screen (POCO in yellow) and I don't know why. I used XiaoMiTool V2 before and worked well.
Nobody know's what happening with my phone? My system_root and product partitions are broke? I need to change my rom, I don't like Miui haha

Small update.
I was using TWRP 3.4.0-15 (I think it's the lastest available)
Yesterday I installed OrangeFox R11.0_6 recovery, I flashed crDroid.zip ROM, apparently no problems with /system_root or /product:
patching system image unconditionally
patching product image unconditionally
After few seconds, error appear:
Failed to mount /vendor (Invalid argument)
After that (if my memory doesn't fail), I reboot in recovery, flashed NikGapps, and same error:
Failed to mount /vendor (Invalid argument)
I wiped cache, dalvik cache and format data, reboot system and crDroid started and I had Gapps installed, so maybe /vendor error is not serious, apparently everything works OK.
I flashed fw+vendor to flash another rom, and when I flash fw+vendor, I got error:
Failed to mount /vendor (Invalid argument)
After flash a new ROM.zip, I got error:
Failed to mount /vendor (Invalid argument)
After flashing gapps, I got error:
Failed to mount /vendor (Invalid argument)
Finally, I format data, and I got error:
Failed to mount /vendor (Invalid argument)
What the **** is /vendor and why happen this? xD

Vendor is specific to the device provided by the "vendor", i.e. usually the manufacturer (including customizations) – while System is the "Android base". If you upgrade a MIUI Rom with vendor deleted you're going to brick your device.
I think you need to do a full manual reinstall but I havent rooted my Poco. Maybe you wiped vendor when installing the custom rom... It advised to only wipe system and data

Bootloade Unlocked, now?

Hi everyone, I have successfully unlocked bootloader with DC-Phenix+HCU (downgrade to EMUI 9.1). Now, I would like to root my device but I am stuck as I do not know how to do it. What is the right procedure to root my MAR-LX1A? via Magisk? Flash a TWRP (that I cannot find anywhere)? I just want to delete few apps that normally user cannot delete. Anyone can help? Thanks
I spent the last 2 days reading several tutorials and I was finally able to flash TWRP (Team win recovery project 3.2.1-0), Pretorio80 version) in my device. Actually P30 was not in the list of supported devices but It works. When I try to install Magizk Zip I get several errors:
"Failed to mount '/ cust' (Invalid argument)"
"Failed to mount '/ data' (Invalid argument)"
"Failed to mount '/ cache' (Invalid argument)"
"Failed to mount '/ Dalvic / ART Cache' (Invalid argument)"
In youtube there are many tutorials that explains how to solve these problems by selecting "WIPE" and then wipe selected folders. As it seems a quite complicated thing, I wonder if there is an expert who can help me. I do not want to brick my phone...
as far as I understood to fix the above problems It is necessary to change the partition (usualy EXT2 or EXT4). Is there any risk? lose data? or brick phone? any help?
Thanks
Hey, I can not help you, but can you describe how you unlocked the bootloader with DC-Phenix+HCU?

I have better solution. You can unstall every app which you want without root. YES its possible, I made that with App control App. You need ADP drivers for Huawei , turn on programmer options and use ADB APP control. This is screen from my ADB APP Control
can somebody confirm this, or is it just another scam app as DCPhoenix?

It;s not scam, check it. Only when you want using full Debloat options you can't because they wanna some $ but when you manually uninstall app which you want you can do it for free. This is super app. Today I was deleted google apps from Xiaomi Redmi 10s.
it would be nice to here some feedback from another user
Check this https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-5-ultimate-app-manager-debloat-tool.4147837/
ok, thanks. I will try it out!
