I was trying to flash CM12 on my XT1068 indian version through TWRP, while installing CM 12 & GAPS GAPPS gave me some errors and it did't flash so i wiped system, data, dalvik cache, cache.
Again i tried to flash CM12 rom and gave me error "unable to mount system".

Please Help im a Newbe

Flash stock firmware, use this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/official-stock-firmware-5-0-2-lxb22-46-t3019612
So I recently tried to upgrade to S433 rom. I had taken a Nanadroid backup but my recovery was old cwm so I flashed TWRP 2.8 and now TWRP doesn't show my backup but even although old CWM was able to restore the backup it never booted it just went into boot loop.
So I tried flashing a new ROM through TWRP but it's always getting zip verification failed although I think that those are proper signed Roms. Ive tried two Roms and both are giving the same error.
Nothing happens when I use SP flash so I am assuming that there's some problem with drivers on Win 7.
So what should or could I do now?
I can boot into the TWRP recovery.
If I turn off zip verification, it just goes into TWRP instantly.
Flash SP is your best bet..Did SP tools see your phone? If not then try searching for drivers
Try Androium rom flashed with 3.0.2 twrp. Format data, cache, dalvik, system before flashing. Never gave me a problem.
Hi all,
I was on xiaomi.eu MIUI 11 ROM for some time, but wanted to switch to either Evolution or Syberia ROM.
I did a complete wipe and installed evolution os trough twrp... but i forgot to remove encryption so i bricked my device...
So then, I flashed the latest stock rom (11.05)with Xiaomi flash tool, but then i was stuck with the chinese ROM so...
1. I went back to bootloader and flashed mauronofrio's TWRP recovery .
2. completely wiped phone; Cache,System,Data,Internal storage
3. copied Evolution OS 4.1 to my phone
4. installed zip trough TWRP, all successfull
5. but then when rebooting, TWRP says:"No OS installed, do you wish to continue"
6. i tried other ROMs like xiaomi.eu and syberia, but these would either give me the same problem, or just bootloop until iam back in the fastboot screen...
Anyone any idea what iam doing wrong?

This works for me every time.
1 Flash the latest fastboot ROM.
2 Flash TWRP (same one you used)
3 Boot into TWRP (use the vol+ button when booting)
4 In format menu swipe to factory reset, then format data (VERY IMPORTANT this must be FORMAT not just wipe)
5 In reboot menu boot into recovery, this ensures TWRP correctly accesses the newly formatted data partition.
6 Copy over the ROM (and GApps, if needed and/or Magisk)
7 Flash the ROM, (then GApps if needed)
8 Boot into system and do the initial setup
9 If installing Magisk, boot back to TWRP and install Magisk.
There is no need to wipe anything else. There is no need to wipe anything again after installing. There is no need to disable encryption or dm-verity.

thanks, i always thought that a wipe was sufficient, or at least equal to a format... anyways will report back later when i have time to try it. lets hope it works because i can't handle this chinese rom

The format is needed to temporarily remove encryption
I've just remembered that I missed an important step. Call it step 1.5
If you going to flash immediately after flashing official MIUI you must boot into MIUI once before doing anything else. You don't need to go through the set-up, you can boot immediately into fastboot after you get to the initial set-up page. The first boot finalises the install and is needed before you flash over the top of it. That may be the cause of your issue if you had missed this before.

Ok so i flashed TWRP again, rebooted to stock rom and then rebooted into recovery, but the stock recovery is still there.
When i flash TWRP and reboot into recovery immediately i can enter TWRP, but if i reboot the phone to MIUI and then reboot again, TWRP is gone again...
It seems like TWRP does not persist... now iam stuck again on fastboot screen because i wiped + formatted everything.
Edit:
When i want to flash recovery it says "OKAY" but it is unable to boot:
Sending 'recovery' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.562s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 0.333s]
Finished. Total time: 1.989s
Sending 'boot.img' (65536 KB) OKAY [ 1.547s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error')
fastboot: error: Command failed

This is normal, MIUI will restore stock recovery of the recovery partition changes. In order to persist TWRP you need to either install Magisk, disable dm-verity or install a custom ROM.
If you are going to flash a custom ROM, then you should do so immediately after flashing TWRP.
After formatting data, TWRP has an issue seeing the data partition, so go to the reboot menu in TWRP and select to reboot to recovery.
Then you can immediately install the ROM of choice. You cannot boot back into system as you'll lose TWRP.

There is no need to wipe system. You only need to wipe cache and dalvik and format data. (I choose to factory reset because it's easier in TWRP, but you could do advanced wipe and select cache and dalvik, then format data. Follow the steps exactly, but include my later step 1.5
I've just followed this myself today, as I've moved from LOS to the latest unofficial Havoc build.
In theory you could start by booting to fastboot and flashing TWRP again, then follow the steps from that point. You probably don't need to install MIUI.

Ok thanks a lot! So no need to wipe system partition after stock rom install. just wipe cache/dalvik/data, got it.
Most ROM install guides tell you to wipe /system when coming from stock rom. I guess this requirement has changed? or depends on what ROM you're coming from?
Use can use my guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/how-to/simple-beginners-guide-to-raphaelin-t4020543
it has how to flash roms, and fastboot fix. (which tells why the Recovery isn't staying)

I need help... The reason why I'm flashing custom rom is, when the latest update came MIUI 12.5 android 11, all sensors of my phone stopped working like (Gyroscope, accelerometer, proximity sensor) I tied to flash the rom by fastboot method but still the problem persists. because of that I unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp. After flashing custom rom when I tried to boot it, it stuck on booting screen and when I tried to reboot into recovey it is showing fastboot mode. I'm unable to boot into custom rom.

Hello all,
so i have an strange issue here. after installing magisk canary yesterday evening, i ended up in a bootloop.
so i stayed pretty cool and went to twrp, used magisk uninstaller and thought hmm okay ****, still not booting, not even shows the boot animation now.
stuck at the MI logo, flicks one time, and then stuck again.
so trying to reflash magisk then with 20.4, but nothing changed.
i ended up doing a full wipe, downloading the latest v12 vendor global and reflashed the rom.
booted up all fine. set it all up again, did a random restart, without doing stuff.
boot animation....10 minutes..
restarted stuck at mi logo again.
not even the system is trying to get up.
now i can wipe verything, vendor, data, system, dalvik, whatsoever, i wiped everything, flashed vendor again, installed rom.
nothing... stuck at the MI logo.
any ideas?
many thanks
If you're flashing recovery ROM i suggest you use fastboot ROM

does not change anything , still the same issue.
seems that i cannot use any custom rom anymore. always stuck at the Mi logo.
i need to reset the whole phone via MiFlashTool once i installed a custom rom which ends up not booting.
rip custom rom...

From stock MIUI.
Install TWRP
Boot into TWRP
Do a factory reset
Format data - Format not wipe, need to type yes to confirm
Reboot to recovery (TWRP)
Flash custom ROM
Flash GApps if needed/wanted
Boot into the ROM
Everything should be good
Flash Magisk if required
Do not wipe any other partitions in TWRP, the factory reset is enough.
Make sure you format data in TWRP - don't miss this step out.
If you're doing this immediately after flashing MIUI, you must boot into MIUI once to finalise the installation.
Yes format data not wipe.
when i flash custom rom, even i am not on miui i first format data with yes in twrp then reboot to twrp. I put rom and gapps to internal memory, and install rom and gapps. and when finish reboot to system, when phone restart it stack at mi logo, so i have to go back to twrp and do again format data with typing yes, and then reboot to system and it works. so no wipe data, format data with typing yes.
oh and i thought, wipe is the same as format.... :/
works like charm. booted up successfully evo x with vendor 12 global.
Install TWRP
Boot into TWRP
Do a factory reset
Format data - Format not wipe, need to type yes to confirm
Reboot to recovery (TWRP)
Flash Vendor
Flash custom ROM
Boot into the ROM
Everything should be good
Flash Magisk if required
thanks all !

If you want to change to a different ROM, or if you want to update Evo x, then the safest way is to remove lockscreen security before flashing. This will remove encryption, which will allow you to clean flash a new ROM, or dirty flash an update, without any issues caused by encryption.
Once your done, add the lockscreen security back.

I'm getting the same problem, is there any fix?
(Im spanish, sorry if my english has errors or is really bad )
Hi, i've got a problem, I spent all day trying to fix a wrong rom installation but nothing works.
I was using Revolution Remix 8.6.2 and I wanted to try the new official hentaiOS, so I made a complete twrp backup of everything and I copied it to my computer, I wiped system, data, dalvick, and cache, and I flash hentaiOS rom zip. It was a normal bootloop so I just wiped all and restored the backup, but it didnt work (System had magisk with some modules but nothing happend in the previous reboots), so I rebooted into recovery to flash the clean RROS zip and try restoring only some parts of the backup to see which partition was causing the bootloop, but I was unable to boot into recovery, I used mi flash with miui 12 fastboot rom, it worked so I flashed TWRP again and tried to install RROS but nothing works.
I already tried with RROS 8.6.2, 8.6.1 and 8.6.0 but no one works, now Im gonna try with ArrowOS (It didn't work) but I want to use RROS, what can I do?

I found the way to boot RROS, I flashed the vendor of the lineageOS post
(Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/development/rom-lineageos-17-0-t3976469 )
and after that I flash RROS 8.6.0, once it boot I reboot to recovery and started updating it.
Hope this info is useful for someone
