Hi all ,
I tried to convert the cache partition to f2fs on my xt1068 but kept getting stuck on boot animation I followed the XDA conversion guide but still failed.my data partition is f2fs.does anyone know if cm13 support cache partition on f2fs or I am doing something wrong.
Steps I followed
Booted in to twrp latest
Made a backup of cache partition
Changed it to f2fs
Put a tick on use rm_rf instead of formating
Then restored cache
It got stuck on boot animation
I also tried wiping but still no joy
Plz help
Thanks in advance
What's the point f2fs on a partition that isn't even used much?

// Also we don't support F2FS for /cache in CM.

Thanks a bunch for the prompt reply.much appreciated.
Hi team, i did a nandroid backup, and noticed twrp reset system to ext4. so then after looking i noticed only the data partition is f2fs. is this standard? or is system normally f2fs?
Hi,
Only data is f2fs, system and cache are ext4.
Guys I'm new here and I do not know much about roms or recovery modes and it's functions. I have a question for you. Some of the roms support f2fs filesystem but whenever I try to install them on my device, it flash roms by using ext4 function. I have never be able to flash them by using f2fs. For example Los 13, Los 14.1, RR roms have f2fs filesystem support. I convert my system and cache to f2fs from ext4 but it doesnt work at all. It installs the roms by using ext4 always. How can I flash them with f2fs filesystem. I have heard that f2fs is faster than ext4 therefore I want try it

I have tried that but whenever I try to install a rom with a filesystem formatted as f2fs, it converts it to ext4 at the beginning of the installation. Can I convert my filesystem after installing a rom? For example after the installation of LineageOs 14, can I convert my filesystem as f2fs? Does it harm my phone?
When I try to encrypt my phone it reboots and does nothing.
I'm currently running LOS 14.1, firmware 8.1.4, twrp 3.2.1-1 but the problem occurs on older versions of twrp too.
Does encryption work for you? If so I'd really apreciate if you could help me. Thanks
Edit: changed filesystem on /data and /cache partitions from ext4 to f2fs and everything work flawlessly
Hi, wouldn't it be sufficient to switch to a custom kernel with f2fs driver to be able to run MIUI with a f2fs file system? It is even possible? With LineageOS you still cannot use f2fs on the /system partition (maybe in the initial ramdisk there is no f2fs driver ?) but at least /data and /cache partition, also on MIUI. Is there a way to do that?
I'm trying without success, installed a custom kernel which claims to have f2fs support, formatted the cache partition in f2fs to do some testing, typed the 'df' command in the linux shell but no cache partition is displayed.
Using f2fs on the /system isn't a good idea to begin with, the /system is a read only partition so you wouldn't benefit from anything that f2fs gives.
