[Q] Problem With recovery (Error Formatting Data)

Hello all
I'm having a problem here, Wanted someone to help me
I want to format my Data (wipe data/Factory reset)
I'm using ClockworkModRecovery v3.0.2.8 with HC 3.0.1
Now in the process of formatting data after a loooooong time it stops and says
Formatting /Data..
Error removing /data/misc/vpn/profiles/460173684741634006
Formatting /sd-ext
Formatting /sdcard/.and_secure
Data wipe Complete.
And System is not working very well. so Any help is appreciated
*EDIT: After reading the message, I tried to take a look at VPN Settings, but surprisingly enough when I click the VPN settings device hangs.
So there must be something wrong with the file system, Can anyone help me for Zero Flashing or formatting this Partition??
-I have tried Fastboot, it says Process was successful but nothing seems to have changed.
-And Although I dont have a Root access I dont think ADB is the answer but can I do it with?

Same issue. Recovery closes and reboot again into recovery. Seems like recovery itself having problem. Any solutions?

Hey I am not Abel to flash anything by twrp it get struck at yu logo pls help

Got stuck at formatting cache in the latest TWRP (I9505 - jfltexx)

Phone is working, I suppose doing his job in the process. The problem is that I am waiting already 20 minutes. I am afraid of getting CPU burnt (it is at 51 grades of Celsius).
I have read about the issue and about also the solution [enabling rm -rf in the twrp settings]... But now I am in the process, so not sure if I should shut the phone down or not..

Did you do a factory reset or advanced wipe?

I used advanced wipe, I got really angry with formatting so I removed the battery ... but now I have a problem: failed to mount system... I installed the twrp through odin... And before that I did not do anything, do I have to unlock bootloader or something like that?

No. Your bootloader is already unlocked, otherwise it wouldn't have let you flash TWRP.
Have you tried factory reset? Or mounting system manually?
You can also try to mount system by using TWRP's built-in terminal emulator.

Now I flashed 4.4.2 with and Odin, phone was ok. Then I flashed latest twrp and now the system was mounted. I did a backup and wiped all again with advanced wipe. Then I tried to install ROM but it fell again to a error 7 - system not mounted. How can I mount it manually? what command is that?

Error 7 means the ROM is not compatible with your model.

Have you tried different version of twrp?

That was a really terrible testing day... I tried every twrp till version 2.8.6 that worked after odin flashing. I managed to mount system and do all wipes. I flashed ROM and gapps, everything went smoothly... But the thing was that the phone started to shut down by itself. Without a message, simply black screen and restart and bootloop after samsung logo. I decided to load 4.4.2 stock with repartitioning (pit file)... 10 hours ok and then again shutting down by itself.
Have you experienced this kind of behaviour?

You need to wipe the data partition in TWRP in order to decrypt it.
wipe/format data/type YES
TWRP doesn't yet support samsungs encryption.
wiping data will obviously remove everything, so backup first.
immediately after wiping data, flash an updated supersu, or dm-verity disable
Flashing a rom over an encrypted data partition will do nothing to solve it unfortunately.

failed to mount preload "invaild argument" when flashing - no-verify-opt-encrypt 6.0

my galaxy s8 was rooted , and after a while i did factory reset through twrp -
format data
then advanced wipe - and wipe everything except system.
then i flashed again the latest version of twrp , magisk , rmm bypass, and no-verify-opt-encrypt 6.0
when i tried to flash no-verify-opt-encrypt 6.0 i got the error "failed to mount preload invaild argument"
however, my phone is rooted, and it is working.
is it should be an issue ?
how can i fix it?
i am using the stock firmware

Won't cause any real issues.
If worried about it in twrp select
Wipe menu - advanced wipe - select preload - swipe to wipe

hey ! thanks for the reply .
i did wiped the preload, and flashed everything over again, but got "error installing zip file /external_sd/no-verify: error 1"
but again, everything working smoothly.
would i try flash stock firmware using odin and start over again?

The issue is with twrp not the system..
I don't know how you have set up twrp
If everyrhing else can be flashed in twrp except no verity zip maybe a possible corruption in zip file.
Note: lasted no verity zip is 6.1
