Hello all - hope everyone's doing OK? I have a OnePlus One lying in the drawer for years and decided to flash it to the latest Lineage OS18.1 so I can take it as a backup phone abroad. I was able to successfully install the OS but when I attempted to install GAPPS (the smallest pico version) I got an error 70 saying there was insufficient space to install it. Doing some Googling a workaround seems to be to re-size the partition using TWRP. However when I tried that (Wipe-Advance Wipe-Check System-Repair or Change File System-Resize File System) I get another error message:
/sbin/e2fsck -fp /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system process ended with ERROR: 1
Unable to repair System
Anyone have any idea how I can fix this? For completeness in my system_root file system it is showing as Size: 1303Mb Used: 1063MB Free: 239Mb
Thanks!
Use a lower size gapps or aroma gapps so that you can choose required apps to install. Also, flash the rom+gapps together because of changes from some custom android versions you can't reboot to system and then flash gapps, that will give you force closes error.
Or maybe try to do full reset with original operating system and start all over again.
If the problem still persist, change the recovery to another available versions.
LineageOS only recommends MindTheGapps for 18.1

Hello guys,
Today I wanted to update my Honor 8 (FDR-L09) because it was showing me, that there is a new update ready to install (FRD-L09C432B405) and I was on a very old firmware (something from mid 2017). So it was time for me to update.
I downloaded the latest update (FRD-L09C432B405) and tried to wipe the cache, dalvik, and Data, but for some reason it "couldn't mount /data" and the wipe failed.
After an advanced wipe it worked and I tried to flash the stock image (the update which was shown to me (FRD-L09C432B405) with TWRP (3.1.1.1.)).
Now my hassle starts:
1. The Rom couldn't get flashed because of "Error: 7" --> I fixed it with the common "Error 7 fix --> editing the update-script and removing the assert line. (And yes, I'm 100% sure that it was the right ROM.
2. Now TWRP seemingly starts to flash the rom but inbetween the lines there is "mountencrypt: failed to mount /data: no such file or directory and it ends with "unknown command [[]" and it takes just two seconds, so the flash obviously isn't succsessfull.
I tried the "failed to mount /data" fix, where I change the data system to ext3 and then back to f2fs and change it back, but it won't work.
In my frustration I did another pretty bad thing and made another advanced wipe and wiped the system too, so now I don't have an OS on my system.
Maybe it's also important to note that there was a window showing up for a very short amount of time, with something like "encryption/encrypted" showed up.
What should I do now? Is there a way to fix the "/data couldn't be mounted" problem? Or am I missing a vital step in flashing the stock rom?
Thanks for your kind help!
You can not flash an update with twrp unless you use hurupdater. You essentially bricked your phone. Look for hurupdater here on xda and follow the instructions and you'll be fine
I'm trying to install LineageOS and then GAPPS on my Pixel XL from TWRP recovery. I'll try to `Advance Wipe` the `/systems` directory and `Format Data`, but I continue to get multiple errors:
Code:
Failed to mount '/system' (Device or resource busy)
Code:
Failed to mount '/vendor' (Device or resource busy)
And
Code:
Unable to wipe 'System'
Code:
Unable to wipe '/system'
If I just continue with `adb sideload lineageos.zip` most of the time it stops about halfway (PowerShell shows `47%`) through and then TWRP shell shows:
Code:
Installing zip file '/sideload/package.zip'
Step 1/2
Step 2/2
I then try to `sideload` the `gapps.zip` file and get another error saying `/system` doesn't have enough space. I've tried sideloading several different gapps versions including their smallest `pico` zip fie of `91.39 MiB`.
I am able to then boot into LineageOS, but no GAPPS show and I'm not able to run any new apps installed via APK without them crashing.
My assumption is that I need to fully wipe `system` and format it, but I've been trying for two days now and still get the above `(Device or resource busy)` errors. Any help would be much appreciated!
Make sure you have the latest tools.
Latest TWRP for marlin is 3.3.0-0
Latest platform-tools is 29.0.1
Not sure what's the cause of this, but if you want to wipe and start fresh I think the best option is reflash the stock factory image that completely wipes everything and restores everything stock.
Then, you can retry wiping the device using the latest TWRP (currently, marlin is 3.3.1-0, the zip is 3.3.0-0, try just boot it and don't flash the zip), flash LOS and then gapps.
Also, as pointed by @post-mortem, make sure you are using the latest adb version when flashing the factory image, just to avoid any potential issue.
Don't use 3.3.1-0. Try 3.3.0-0. I had the same issue.
Why doesn't TWRP Team provide an answer as to why this happens? It appears to affect everyone with the latest official Pixel ROM.
Twrp is for Android pie and has trouble mounting stock Android 10. They have announced this on their website. This shouldn't matter since you're installing lineage. You don't need to wipe system before installing lineage because it installs into the inactive slot. You need to sideload lineage then reboot into recovery to switch slot's. The instructions are on the lineage website.
Did OP manage to solve this issue?
I'm trying to install the OpenGapps package for LineageOS 16 on my new Oneplus 7 Pro, but have a problem installing it.
First I tried the "open_gapps-arm64-9.0-micro-20190827.zip" package, but it told me its the wrong platform. Is it not arm64?
Second I tried to install the "open_gapps-arm-9.0-micro-20190827.zip", but gives me an error 70, saying I do not have enough space.
Maybe someone have a solution for this?
Thanks
Try MindtheGapps. I've seen this work for some.

Tried it. Still does not work.
I got it semi, but still not working. Seems like the problem is within the way the partitions getting handled. My old Oneplus 5t had a boot, recovery, system partitions. The new one includes the recovery inside the boot it seems instead.
Here's how far I am now:
1) Unlocked the phone
2) Installed TWRP
3) Install Lineage ( This overwrites the TWRP so you have to install it again )
4) Reboot straight from TWRP after flashing the Lineage... back into the Bootloader/Fastboot mode and install the TWRP again.
5) Boot back into TWRP recovery and now I'm able to install OpenGapps ARM64 version.
But after this I cant boot the OS anymore...

Format data in twrp then try boot again should work

Still no luck. Tried many things now... but here's what happens:
1) Installing the TWRP
2) Format data partition and everything else
3) Reboot back into TWRP
4) Install Lineage ( At this point I'm able to boot into Lineage just fine )
5) Trying to install Open GApps at this point gives me:
Code:
# Begin Open GApps Install Log
------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------
# End Open GApps Install Log
INSTALLATION FAILURE: This Open GApps package cannot be installed on this
device's architecture. Please download the correct version for your device.
# Begin User's gapps-config
# End User's gapps-config
It says I need to install the ARM instead of ARM64...
But if I go back into the bootloader and flash the twrp and boot back into the recovery, I'm able to install Open GApps ARM64 just fine. Seems like a weird "device's architecture" detection problem in the Open Gapps or maybe it could be the TWRP... not sure...
Also after this it will no longer boot.
Kinda weird problem....

Don't wipe system afaik vendor LOS generates it's own, Also might be in the wrong slot make sure the slot changed when rebooting back to recovery to install gapps, I used MindTheGapps latest version from OP worked great.

Have not wiped the System and Vendor partition after I installed Lineage... It boots just fine... just not if I install Open GApps....
Tried MindTheGapps latest version, but still no luck.
Okay got it working. The problem was the A/B partition layout they have in this phone... Was not aware of this.
This article describes it pretty well: https://lineageos.org/Changelog-19/
So yeah this is what I did:
1) Boot into Bootloader/Fastboot mode
2) Flash the boot partition with fastboot flash boot twrp-3.3.1-52-guacamole-unified.img
3) Restart into TWRP - Format the data partition and clean the system partition etc.
3) Restart into recovery TWRP once more to get the data partition ready
4) Now you can transfer the lineage-16.0-20190827-nightly-guacamole-signed.zip over to memory.
5) Now flash the zip file and let it complete. This will overwrite the boot partition with TWRP and replace it with Lineage's own boot/recovery image.
6) Now reboot into Lineage's recovery. Now select Apply update > Apply from ADB and send the "MindTheGapps-9.0.0-arm64-20190615_031441.zip" file to the phone with "adb sideload MindTheGapps-9.0.0-arm64-20190615_031441.zip" - You might have to confirm the zip file....
After this is done, the phone should be ready for use.

I am facing the same A/B slot problem with my Moto Z2.
After setp 5), did you let the lineage OS fist then reboot into recovery, or did you go straight to the lineage recovery?
Thank you so much for this. I finally fot it sorted. I did find that sometimes you have to ubplug the USB cable and plug it in again to be recognised, but I got it going. Goodby Google!!!!
I am using Gentoo Linux with adb to do this.
Hi,
I have updated TWRP to 3.3.0-2 using Odin3 v3.13.1 before proceeding to the installation of the rom version lineage-13.0_espressowifi-6.0.1-20190729-1933 but I am unable to install a gapps package. I have made an attempt using an old version (gapps-base-arm-6.0.1-20170902-1-signed) which failed. So I went to Open GApps project to obtain a newer version (open_gapps-arm-6.0-nano-20191116) but it failed again with an error code of 40.
This code tells me that I must wipe the system partition if I want to install their new version of GApps. I went to recovery mode and searched for such an option but it does not exist. The only option available is wiping the cache partition. In fact this new version of TWRP does not look the same as my previous version (3.2.0) in terms of options and features.
I have made an attempt at going back to my previous version of TWRP using Odin3 but it did work; no failure, the version was not changed.
If I can't go back to a previous version of TWRP and the current version does not provide an option for wiping the system partition, what can I do to install GApps?
Regards
did you wipe it under advanced wipe? and I recommend open gapps 6 arm pico.
as stated before, I can wipe cache only under the Advanced option of this version of TWRP.
Now regarding your suggestion of using the pico version of gapps, it doesn't matter. Whatever version I use, it triggers an error code of 40, which translates into something like: the Open Gapps package can only be installed on top of an existing installation of Open Gapps or a clean AOSP.... You must wipe your system partition and flash your rom before installing Open Gapps. Again, the problem is that the actual version of TWRP does not provide the option of wiping the system partition.
I have replaced an old 2018 version of LineageOS 13 with version lineage-13.0_espressowifi-6.0.1-20190729-1933 and as I was trying to install a Gapps package, it failed with an error code of 40.

Try a different version of TWRP.
as I was looking for a solution to my problems, I have discovered there are various "flavors" of Odin3 matching with hardware and software. Unlike what I have read on different sites, it is not always a good idea to use the most recent version of a piece of software. So, I have replaced my version of Odin3 by an older version more in line with my hardware and my operating system and I have managed to install successfully a very old version of TWRP (3.0.0). Then I have upgraded to version 3.3.0-2 and all options that I was used to became available. From this point, I will be able to clean flash my tablet.
Thanks secretwolf98 for your attempts to help me solve my problem.
Case closed.
HI,
I have 2 Samsung devices with TWRP installed, and I can access the TWRP recovery menu. When I install the flash ROM and try to boot, devices are stuck in system boot forever.
Device 1: SM-T800, with LineageOS 14.1 previously. I opened an email and the device got hacked, so I did a factory reset (which failed), then re-flashed the latest TWRP and recovered rescue mode. Now when I flash the Lineage ROM (from TWRP) the device does not boot to system but keeps showing the splash screen. I think the hack might have placed immutable files under system. could I format this partition to zero it out via ADB? What other choices are there?
<EDITED>
Device 2: Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 - I solved this so i removed this section.
Thank you for any help.

Device 2: Galaxy S3 GT-I9300, with working TWRP. This device is giving a "Failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument)" error. The previous setup was shared storage with sdcard and encryption on both internal and sdcard. The sdcard got corrupted, hence the error. This post suggests running
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst1
but the device does not have identifiable boot device under /dev/block. I think this might work if I can identify the boot partition name?
Thank you for any help.

Flash a custom ROM for i9300 via TWRP. Download a custom ROM for i9300 and the appropriate Gapps to go with the ROM, store them on external sdcard. When you are in TWRP, before you flash your ROM, select the "Wipe" option, then select "advanced wipes", on the next menu, choose the system partition, data partition, cache partition and dalvik cache partition then swipe the slider to wipe. Then go back to home screen in TWRP and choose the "Install" option, then choose your ROM file and your Gapps file then swipe to flash. When the flash is finished, select the "Reboot system" option and see if it boots into system.
If that doesn't work, we will take some steps further back and try starting from the beginning.
Keep in mind that some of the custom ROMs for i9300 may have a different partition structure and partition sizes than the stock firmware for i9300 has and may require resizing certain partitions such as the system partition by flashing a custom PIT file like the Galaxy S2 had to do before it flashed certain custom ROMs.
Hi, thanks for the input.
* I had already solved the GT-I9300 issue before your post (I should have added to thread rather than edit the original post). I solved issue with that device by including system partition in the wipe.
* For the SM-T800, I used a LineageOS-14.1 that I had stored somewhere. That also did not work, until I only flashed Lineage and did not include any GApps. If I really need it, I can always flash later. I assume the latest GApps 7.1 build conflicts with older ROMs.
An unexpected problem was the lack of current ROMs for the 2 devices. SM-T800 has nothing other than last build Lineage-14-1-20190205. The I9300 has several unofficial ROMs floating around for newer Android versions, but they are all debug/dev builds with enabled options that drain the battery very quickly.
If anyone comes across a decent ROM for either of these devices please LMK. Thanks.
