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

Is there something rom with my file system?
Please, any idea would be really appreciated.
"Failed to mount 'protect_f' (Invalid argument)" while trying to flash through TWRP
My Lenovo A536 went into boot loop cycle and I have been trying to flash a new rom or even a stock one for a while, but I keep getting this error when I try and do it through TWRP.
"
Failed to mount 'protect_f' (Invalid argument)
Failed to mount 'protect_f' (Invalid argument)
"
I flashed the phone multiple times through Smart Phone Flash Tool and it doesn't seem to work either.
The farthest I have come is a loading animation of the OS but it crashes shortly after that.
When I try to mount those two partitions in the mounting section of TWRP, it doesn't want to select them.
I looked at Android Scatter file that is used to install the OS for this phone and at the part with "protect_f' and "protect_s" is says Operation type: Protected, does this have anything to do with that error?
Some people told me that the phone is just on end of it's life and it's an internal memory issue. If it is something to do with hardware side of things, can I install the OS onto my SD card (SanDisk 16GB), and run the phone through that, since, while the phone was working, I noticed option to transfer the entire phones main data to SD Card, so is that possible to do through TWRP or other tools?
I tried Vibe+, Vibe 2.0, Lollipop 5.0, Slim 6.0.1 and non of those can get boot.
Hi All,
I am trying to root Samsung S7 Oreo 8.0 with TWRP & Magisk. But, when ever I log into TWRP it's saying "Inernal Memory 0MB)
I've followed below steps :
Installed TWRP and no-verity-opt-encrypt zip, it worked until I reboot to system
After reboot again the internal memory showing as 0MB (may be re-encrypted)
Is there any way that I can remove the encryption permanently?
Error :
Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Updating partition details...
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
...done
Unable to mount storage
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Full SELinux support is present
Unable to mount /data/media/TWRP/.twrps
PS : I've gone through the forum to find different solutions, but nothing working to remove the encryption permanently.
yes, it is possible. is use it all the time with my stock android. give me some time to write it...or maybe someone other can tell u. u already used the search in this forum?
an other question, u really need an unencrytped internal memory?

Thank you.. Am not exactly looking for unencrypted partition. Am just confused whether it's expected to format data and no variety everytime or is it just one time for root?
Also I gone through the threads to find fix for this issue. But most of the people are suggesting to format data.
Any other better ways? Can we take backup of existing ROM from TWRP without root?

i am using a stock firmware by telekom, it installs some features after first flash and first reboot (maybe ur firmware does not need step 3, so my second reboot is ur first reboot into download mode)
1. flash stock firmware
2. first reboot
3. install for provider reasons and then
4. second reboot (important: into download mode)
5. flash twrp
6. third reboot (important: into twrp)
7. flash zip-file (attached to this post)
8. reboot and wait....
now u should have an unencrypted system. the only thing is, u need to repeat these steps on firmware updates.

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
