Hi!
So I get nightly updates to my CM 12.1 LG L90 D405. It automatically boots to TWRP but gets some error during flash. Then I go to cmupdater folder and flash it manually but it still fails. I've added screenshots and logs where it first automatically installed and the it failed by flashing manually.
I have the same since I have been using cm 12.1
I download and flash new builds manually.

I posted this in the main thread for Mokee but didn't get any help, so.. here it is.
I have Mokee 5.1.1 with the Mokee Gapps package and CWM r11 running.
I'm aware that the system partition must not be modified in any way for the update to work. I've uninstalled/converted a couple apps via Titanium Backup but I have backups, so these apps/changes are easily restorable to the previous state.
Now, I have the latest incremental .zip downloaded.
How do I successfully flash it? Please help.
First flash TWRP recovery then try. CWM recovery is not supported for updates. TWRP recovery should automatically install the update without an issue. Else try a clean flash and the try the updates from mokee center in the settings.

Hey, just saw your post, i guess I also replied on your original post. Use TWRP, incremental zip downloads are flashed as usual. in TWRP menu, select install, select location of zip file & than install, That's it.
Updated to latest Release
Ok. Here's an update -- I'm on the latest release as of this moment & this might hopefully help someone.
I installed the latest TWRP for Cancro (Mi3) using the .img file from the official website and the Rashr app.
(see OP) I tried to restore the uninstalled default Google Pinyin Keyboard app but it was force closing. Did not want to proceed with OTA with this since a successful Mokee OTA requires the system partition to be unmodified.
I then dirty flashed* the full ROM -- 5th June (20150605) Release -- zip. I was on the 20th May Release version.
173 apps took about 10 minutes to optimize on first boot.
Everything is now working fine. I was on the Mokee Gapps package and the Play Store et all are working.
Will update with details of OTA success/failure on the next Release.
*I managed to not wipe dalvik/cache before the dirty flash, making this an extremely dirty flash. You should wipe them & also, obviously, take a backup of apps, contacts, messages etc. & a nandroid backup via TWRP before flasing the zip.

U can use adb or fastboot tools to flash recovery or roms.

Download TWRP recovery img from here.
Go to fastboot mode, by pressing power+volume down.
Install TWRP recovery in fastboot mode and install the ROM via OTG drive.

Hi
You can either use adb or in CWM go to Advance then Mount USB storage.
This will have all the data in there.
Always save the rom files in the internal memory as CWM does not access external memory (at least as far as I know)
So I updated to 13 and realized that the play store had been removed. So I attempted to switch back to 12.1 and now my phone is stuck on the euphoria bootloop. My phone will not show up in explorer. I cant get into recovery and my device wont show up in adb. I'm at a loss.
Did you update to Stock MM before CM 13?
If you downgrade you gotta flash the 10N base and modem and all that.
can latest cm13 snapshot dated 21-12-16 be dirty flashed over previous snapshot cm13 15/11/16 using twrp 3.0.2-3 recovery. For OTA update do we need to change the twrp recovery or it will install itself without any problem.
no
Hi everyone,
I'm new here though but am a Xiaomi user from the beggining of Xiaomi into devices with Redmi Note 3G Enhanced.
Currently, I own a Redmi 4X and I would like your expert lights please. I've flashed the latest twrp from twrp.me for my santoni device. Then flashed the latest build from LineageOS Official source + Gapps before booting up for first time. Everything was working perfectly until I decided to flash the latest update of LineageOS as I've seen in my updater it was released. So, I downloaded it through the updater and tried to flash it...
I came up with this "Failed to unmount /system (device or resource busy)" after that re-booted to LineageOS and everything was messed up with Google Services & Apps etc. Then I went back to twrp recovery and tried to flash again the rom but I was still getting that message so I understood something am doing wrong. Also santoni has dm-verity enabled which I know something about but just an info. I really wanna stick with LineageOS on my Redmi 4X forever but I'm afraid to flash it again. I've flashed MIUI 10 Beta by fastboot but now I wanna go back to LineageOS forever (addicted).
My only problem is: After successfuly flashing LineageOS and Gapps, I cannot apply (flash) updates to update the ROM to the latest nightly build due to this error above.
Kind regards,
peryson
Try with different recovery. For example with this

Instead of trying an unofficial recovery, do I have an option to unmount system manually before flashing through Official TWRP?

You can download latest Lineage OS build and dirty flash it (without any wipes) (so you can unmout system parition). And I don't see any issue in using unoffical twrp.
I also have experienced same error once during upgrade "failed to unmount /system"
Eventually I wiped everything and did clean flash from scratch. This is really annoying issue and demonstrates that upgrade system is not 100% reliable for some reason.
I'm not sure however is it Lineage or twrp issue.
