backup everything on internal storage. In TWRP Recovery, choose Wipe/Format Data. This will erase everything on your internal storage. reboot or reflash CM 13 or whatever you want. That should work.

Is it possible that there will be no wipe update 5.1 ZIP with no encryption? Works like OTA.
I'd like to update from 5.0.1 (no force encryption) to 5.1 without loosing my data. The best for me is zip for TWRP
Well if backup everything in twrp to an external flash drive then it shouldn't be an issue. I know people have side loaded the OTA via ADB but it hasn't been working for everyone. You obviously can't take a normal OTA if you are rooted so you could try that. Alternatively I would download Parcel if you have root and backup all of your apps and data for each one that you don't want to lose then transfer it to an external drive so you don't lose it when flashing the updated images. From here you can install 5.1 and then simply restore all of your missing apps and data using Parcel. It works really well and much better than TiBu for restoring data in apps. I use both TiBu and Parcel for different things. The above is only if you can't find any alternative ways to get it loaded in TWRP
There's a stock based ROM in dev forum. Flash that followed immediately (without booting) a kernel with no force encryption such as elementalx and you'll be good.
Or just fastboot flash a system image followed by immediately boot into recovery, flash kernel and SuperSU

So what if we wanted to, coming from encrypted, decrypt without a wipe?

nope. your internal storage meeds to be reformatted. save on a computer anything you would need.
I have a 910t and on accident I wiped everything. I can still boot twrp. I just don't have any backup. When I try to reboot from twrp it tells me I have no OS installed. What do I do from here?

No problem its normal.
Just download any rom in pc and transfer to microsd card or otg flash drive then flash rom from twrp.
Or just reboot to download mode from twrp and flash stock firmware in odin.
So I have my Moto X 2014 bootloader unlocked and rooted (Android 6.0)
I wanted to update to LineageOS, and realized everything I try with TWRP Recovery (3.1.2-0) does fail.
I am able to flash another recovery though. i tried downgrading and upgrading TWRP but it didn't help at all.
I also noticed that, while adb is working just fine, my PC can't find my device when in fastboot mode.
So the actions I tried to perform (and failed) with TWRP are: Wiping (davlik, cache, system, data, all together and separately). Trying to copy the log to the SD card also fails.
Mounting (and unmounting) partitions seem to work, at least the checkboxes work and i can see all the contents of my internal sd card.
I'm pretty much out of ideas what to do. Should I try another recovery? Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Install Motorola USB driver,
Download last stock rom for your device(not downgrade or you risk an hard brick)
Use zahidim script or mine for install rom
Enable USB debug
Reboot in fastboot
Flash twrp 3.1.1-0
Hi guys.
So after developing an audio bug on Lineage OS 15.1 (a story for another day) I decided to restore one of my old backups via TWRP (unofficial decrypt-friendly version).
I press restore, get some sort of error about mounting /system and then on reboot I get a message asking me to factory reset which takes me to TWRP. Not too surprised by this point because the Huawei bootloader is quirky.
However, when I go into TWRP, it simply gets stuck on the loading screen endlessly. I left it for several hours and it didn't budge. Rebooted several times.
I tried reflashing TWRP via fastboot, no dice, same result. I flashed the official recovery too. That loads fine, but obviously I can't restore with that because it doesn't support encryption.
So I'm a bit stuck here. I've read somewhere that it takes ages to load when you have plenty in the data and cache folders, which I do, but I really don't want to wipe because I have a full week of precious holiday photos and videos I wasn't able to back up (No access to a PC at the time).
Any advice?
Not sure how to fix the TWRP restore problem, but have you tried connecting to your PC while in TWRP? If I remember correctly, it'll allow you to connect to a computer so you could access your storage and backup the files you need.

Problem is that everything is encrypted, so even if it does show up it will be gobbledygook (nonsense).
Lesson to learn from this: always backup before trying to update ROM or flash something new.
I guess what you can do is to try to flash Lineage again and see if you can make that boot.

Yeah, there's a few reasons that happened. Usually I autobackup everything but I had been away from wifi for a week. I backed stuff up via Titanium but obviously that got encrypted too. Restores also have never given me problems in the past so I didn't expect anything to go wrong (still not sure what did).
Anyway, I'm not sure how to flash lineage without TWRP, especially with everything encrypted. To have any chance of getting it to work I'm guessing I'd need to flash it the same way I did originally, which was with everything decrypted which makes the issue moot. Maybe I'm wrong though.
Try flashing a treble rom via fastboot. Then wipe data and cache.
fastboot flash system "GSI. img"
fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

Thanks, but I'm trying to prevent loss of data. I'd probably just use e-recovery if I don't mind losing data and want to reset to start again from scratch.
Erasing userdata and cache is just factory reset. It won't wipe your internal storage which where your photos are kept.
Ok, turns out once I chose the "download latest firmware and stock recovery" from erecovery it didn't wipe the internal sd data!
Everything is still there and I can access it now from the huawei stock ROM even though I came from lineage OS. It thankfully does not reset the encryption keys or the pattern lock, so you'll be just fine once you do a system boot and go through the regular setup process.
I recommend this approach because it's pretty hassle free.

Glad you found a way to keep your files, mate
Summary:
1. Flash factory image onto phone successfully
2. Install twrp and make a backup
3. Restore backup after reboot and I'm stuck in a bootloop
I have a new fi Moto x4 running Android 8.1 that I'm attempting to set up. I've reset this phone a bunch of times so here is the standards process:
1. Flash factory firmware as shown in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-official-factory-t3808348
I'm using: PAYTON_FI_OPW28.46-13_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
2. After flashing, start up the phone and it works fine.
3. Reboot into the bootloader and boot to twrp using: fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-1-payton.img
4. Copy in the twrp install file using: adb push twrp-installer-payton-3.2.3-1.zip /sdcard
5. Install the zip via the twrp Install function
6. Reboot the phone into the bootloader then start recovery
7. Use the twrp Backup function to create a backup of the Boot, Data and System partitions on Internal Storage (plenty of space).
8. Reboot the phone into the bootloader then start recover
9. Use the twrp Restore function to restore the backup. Finishes fine.
10. Reboot phone to system but the load won't finish. Phone just alternates between the Android One and the Motorola splash screens. Left it for an hour at one point just to be sure. No love.
Things I have tried:
1. Using twrp via fastboot boot and a hard install
2. Making backups to the internal and external memory cards
3. Changing the partitions in the backup
4. Wiping everything except the external sim card before performing a restore
If anyone has any thoughts I would love to here them.
Thank you!
I'm having a similar problem and found this old thread. I am on stock pie rooted and made a twrp backup this morning so that I could try flashing some custom ROMs. After successfully installing a custom ROM I attempted to restore the backup and return to stock but just get bootloop. I am able to get back to to twrp and the phone will boot after a factory reset, but even if I just restore data I get bootloop. I'm wondering what I am doing wrong with restoring the backup. Any thoughts? Thanks.
I have the same problem as you are. After I finished install all applications, I made a backup with twrp-3.2.3-1-payton. Then next day I restore it from the backup, after finished backup, it goes to bootloop forever. My version is OPWS28.46.21.12, I download stock rom OPW28.46-13 but afraid to flash this rom since it is the lower version might be break the phone if not backward compatible. Then I search the web and found your message and follow this side fund a higher version of the stock rom OPWS28.46-21-14. I download it and flash it. After flashing complete and boot up, it saying new OTA update available, I don't want to update the rom since I want my phone rom version is same as the stock rom I have downloaded into my PC just in case in the future I accidentally doing something wrong I can flash back the stock rom without worrying the backward compatibility problem.

I'm a bit slow on the response - but my first thought is manually flash stock rom over your restore without wiping data
I'm able flash the latest stock rom of FI_9.0_PPWS29.69-26-4 and reinstall twrp-3.2.3-1-payton. Then I restore data only that backup from previous rom, I get bootloop again after restore the data only from TWRP. The I reflash FI_9.0_PPWS29.69-26-4 again, install twrp and root it with Magisk. Restore data from cloud google drive automatically. And this time is successfully without bootloop.
