Can't sideload//mount/see files. Soft bricked - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After flashing Revolution HD 71.1 ROM through CWM I proceeded to get stuck at the HTC logo screen, and cannot get passed it. I have flashed many roms in the past and hadn't changed anything, and this is coming off of Eragon ROM. I also was unable to even get into recover, it would show the CWM logo and then just restart the phone. I got TWRP working, but I'm still having some issues. I am unable to mount the sdcard, and no files are able to be seen on the sdcard.
When I try to sideload I get this error (some of it was cut off I put what I could):
E:Unable to mount '/data'
E:Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Updating partition details...
E:Unable to mount '/cache'
E:Unable to mount '/data'

E:Unable to mount '/usb-otg'
E:Unable to mount '/usb-otg'
E:Unable to mount '/usb-otg'
E:Unable to mount '/usb-otg'

I'm trying to get back to eragon ROM since I knew that worked, or anything really. I tried pushing the .zip file of the ROM through abd and while it did say the transfer completed, I was still unable to see the file in recovery. I'm unsure of what to do. after searching around some it may be a corrupt SD partition or something like that? I'm really unsure. Any help would be appreciated.

Can't mount /data or /cache

Hey guys, I have a Nexus 6 that is bootloader locked not being able to be unlocked because of "Enable OEM Unlock" not being ticked, TWRP installed, and no OS able to boot. TWRP says it cannot mount /data or /cache, therefor no roms can install properly. I'm at a complete standstill as I cannot install any roms to tick off Enable OEM Unlock, or flash a stock image via fastboot.
Here are some logs from TWRP:

@RealROGWaffle since you really don't have any other options, format data in TWRP. Then try fastboot format userdata and fastboot format cache.

No dice, my friend. Formats data with seemingly no issues (with no errors, that is), but fastboot format userdata and fastboot both fail WRITE due to locked bootloader and /data and /cache still will not mount after booting into TWRP again.

Did you try just a reboot after format?

Please help!

Yeah! That's a step forward! I have a new error lol once trying to install CM.
Code:
This package supports bootloader(s):0x4882, 0x4883, 0x4886; this device has bootloader 0x4807.
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard1/cm-12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DA01K5-titan.zip'

Just tried to follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/bootloader-update-t3060007/ to see if it improved anything. Same error.
Ah, the vital step I missed was "Once bootloader has been updated, reboot into bootloader and select recovery again".
Cyanogen is stuck in a bootloop with the cyan head with the waves coming out of it. Any further ideas?

Hmm, did you format it to F2FS back again?
Just to confirm, I should format /data to F2FS in TWRP?

So I've just formatted data as F2FS and reinstalled CM + Gapps, let's see how it goes!
Edit: Still can't get beyond the splash screen.

Ahh! Optimizing apps!
Could you kindly confirm your personal paypal is the one mentioned in your signature?
The effort and time you've put in is worthy of a beer.
Ohhh! What a Newbie I am! I forgot to add root to the list of apps I need. Can I just go back and install it or do I need to reflash everything again? What's the 'best' root app at this point in time please?

You can enable root in the developer settings.
Wonderful. Thanks.
I made the stupid mistake of encrypting my device (why must I feel so security conscious?!). This means that you cannot flash anything in recovery. Is there a work around for this?

The TWRP images I provide for multirom stuff are mounting encrypted /data just fine but I'm not sure why encrypted data would prevent /system from being flashed...
Any ideas as to what's causing this?

Help recover data after trying to encrypt CM13 (partially successful)

Hey, here's my situation:
Device: L90 405n
TWRP recovery
CM13
No SD-Card present
Tried to "encrypt phone" from the settings menu, the encryption step seemed to finish fine. However after the phone reboots and I enter my passcode, it hangs on the CM loader logo forever.
I thought this was a lost deal, especially after looking through the forums where the only recommendation is to wipe clean and reinstall.
And when I try to enter recovery, I can only get to the default "factory reset" and not TWRP recovery.
BUT
I can decrypt phone with a passcode I have
I can take screenshots on that passcode screen, so some things are working
After entering encryption passcode, and while the phone is showing CM logo, I can (briefly) see device as online using `adb devices` command, after about a minute
I can reboot into TWRP recovery by running `adb reboot recovery`
While in recovery, I'm able to see this in terminal:
Code:
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Updating partition details...
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Unable to mount storage
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Full SELinux support is present.
Failed to mount '/data/media/TWRP/.twrps'
MTP Enabled
Is there anything I could do to recover my data, or is it a lost cause?

Verification Fail after booting Tab S2

Please bear with this lengthy description of my problem.
I successfully rooted my stock Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 SM-T713 Nougat but made 2 mistakes in the process. I neglected to copy the Build Number for the tablet and, after rooting and checking that everything worked OK, I turned off OEM unlock. The next time I started the tablet I got the message "Verification Failed, Unable to restart your device" with a yellow triangle! The tablet was bricked.
Since I did not know the build number for the stock rom, I found an flashed a supposedly “generic” JazzRom which brought the tablet back to life and it was unrooted. I was able to discover that the stock rom (T713XXU2BRB2) which I downloaded and flashed, I then flashed TWRP. So far so good.
I then booted into TWRP recovery and tried to do a factory wipe which produced a number of errors:
Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Unable to recreate /data/media folder.

Formatting Cache using make_ext4fs...
Updating partition details...

...done
Unable to mount storage
I then flashed SuperSU and when the tablet restarted I got "Verification failed. Unable to restart your device. The integrity verification has failed. You need to reset your device to factory default settings. This will erase all your data."
Now, my question is - can this be fixed?
