Internal memory does not show on PC

Hello everybody,
I am in desperate need for help.
Received my OP3T yesterday and followed the instructions to flash Sultan's CM13 ROM, unlocking bootloader, running "fastboot OEM unlock", deleting data and system partitions, attempting to flash TWRP and even using the SuperSu root afterwards.
I now have an issue where the internal memory of the phone does not show up on PC. It does not show when I am running CM13, and does not show when I'm in the TWRP recovery menu.
- Using the mount feature in TWRP does not work.
- All my file systems are currently set to ext4.
- USB debugging is on, off course.
- Tried accessing internal memory on a different PC, and still doesn't show.
I've tried completely deleting all the partitions, re-flashed TWRP and re-flashed CM13. Also tried re-flashing the original recovery and the original OxygenOS rom.
As a result, I can only access the TWRP recovery now. I have no way to copy the CM13 zip file or any other file to the internal memory.
Anyone know what's going on?

to see internal storage in TWRP you need to enter the password you definied as android login.
to see internal storage on pc go to "Settings/developer options/usb configuration and use again "file transfer" (i hope this is the english word for "dateiübertragung")

TWRP Internal storage unable to Mount (internal 0mb) redmi note 4 (mido)

There is an akward situation, whenever i try to go into TWRP for flash any zip aur img file , TWRP does not show any such file. It is 100% sure that i transfer the flasheable zip file to the mido. But TWRP does not show. It shows 0mb internal storage. And i tried to wipe delvik cashe data system but it gives a message and error in red color that data not mount.
So for this i just formate the phone by twrp... It get easly formate by typing YES and delete all the internal storage, after that i can wipe all the stuff under advanced wipe by selecting all the options system data delvik cashe.... Etc.
After doing this i just power off the phone by twrp, and again boot the phone into twrp recovery by pressing volume up+ power button
And then twrp shows 52 gb aprx internal , so i transfer the custom rom zip file and gapps zip to the phone using computer.
After that i had flash the rom and reboot the phone into system..
The phone get started and work awsome.
Now after an hour latter , i had again reboot the device to recovery ... To flash magisk manager ... Guys i am shoked the internal storage shows 0 mb instead of actual memory.
Again does not shows any zip file, img file.
So i have to follow all the steps that i performed before formate the phone and reboot to recovery then transfer magisk and then flash it.
The problem is why twrp again and again shows 0mb error ...
So i also flash the miui using fastboot method (clear all) clean flash, then flash the twrp after that flash the custom rom.
After flashing rom , Now again reboot to recovery it shows 0 mb internal and data unable to mount.
Twrp fix temporary not permanent.
Please tell me if you find any solution for this for permanant fix twrp 0 mb error....

Hi! actually i had similar issue after restoring all partitions (not just boot data and system, but all the 10 or more partitons) on my redmi 4x. i couldnt mount the data partition it got corrupted somehow. I couldnt format it in twrp too. Reflashing everything in my flash solved the problem, just dont forget to NOT choose the option with RELOCK, or you will lock the bootloader.

Help! Tried to install custom rom and now internal storage is encrypted

So i tried to install a custom rom, now my storage is encrypted and i can't install apps or anything on my device.
I unlocked the bootloader, install twrp, it didn't ask me for a password however. I then did advanced wipe, system data cache.
I then couldn't copy anything to my internal storage, so reflashed miui using miflash tool.
My device is working fine, but when plugged in, all the folders on my internal storage come up as random numbers and letters (which i assume means its encrypted). I have tried downloading something via chrome and it says "sd card not found".
I really hope someone can help me.
Thanks!

Hi ! Do you can resolve your problem ?
I'm not expert but I think reboot to Twrp and format your data . Advanced format data yes and flash your Rom. But I don't no if you do to flash the DM Verity Encryption remover before flash your Rom ?
Stay for expert help you..

I faced similar issue when flashing custom rom.
I did some research and found out that, I have to wipe data first, reboot to fastboot (in TWRP). Boot into TWRP again using DOS shell prompt.
In this way, your phone will not be encrypted, allowing file transfer and flash from TWRP.
Hope it helps.

Hi, I managed to fix it by flashing the latest miui fastboot ROM again using mi flash tool, and then restoring a backup of my system from Google drive and miui when setting up the phone. I think I will try to flash a ROM again at some point. What do you mean by DOS shell prompt? Thanks

You need flash Forced Encryption Disabler to remove encryption of the folders. In TWRP, flash zip and reboot to recovery.

im facing the same problem now. the files are all jumbled up letters, do i need to format the device before using mi flash tool?

Soft bricked phone after trying to restore backup after LineageOS flash

I flashed the lineageOS 17 roms that is available and it worked but then i realized that gapps was not complete so i went into TWRP to restore my old Backup of ColorOS 6.1 (A.08 version), also it had magisk installed, but it then would show the first boot logo then restart and go into the recovery. I then tried formating everything except internal storage and also factory wipe and now my backup is gone and everything else on my phone. I can still boot into recovery and such but now it wont even ask me for the decryption password. File manager in TWRP shows 3 folders in the internal storage (in sdcard 0, obb and TWRP).
Any help? i dont wont to break things even more.
Edit: I just noticed that in the 0 folder in sdcard there is 65 gb of folders and files. Im assuming that are my old files but they are encrypted. Any way to undo that?

I guess you have to install a rom and set everything up from scratch. You lost all your files when you formated data, including backups, etc.
If you want to update or change your recovery, now it's the time - since there's no rom or files to lost.

I didnt format the internal storage only data and i edited the post saying that i think i found all the data but still encrypted. Im guessing TWRP wont automatically decrypt it.

For anyone with a similar problem. I reinstalled LineageOS and it decrypted all the files.
