Did you enable "OEM unlock" in Developer Options before rooting as advertised?

Flash twrp and wipe all without SD. Reboot recovery.

First out of all. You posted it in the exactly same place.
Second. Here is my answer from You other thread:
Does it say something like crypto footer or data invalid size or something like that? If it does then You have to format data, not wipe. Or else it won't work.

No says nothing , just internal memory 0 all folders subfolders are empty , but when I boot normally all files are there ( by formatting I'll loose all data?) What's the difference in wipe and format dont they both delete all data?

Format will work. You will lose all your stuff so backup whats important. The difference is what you checkmark in wipe. You gotto lose all data for TWRP to work.

Wiping data only wipes data partition.
Formating data removes every single file in internal storage and all files in data partition.
You have to format data in order to get twrp to work.

So I can take a smart switch backup and the format and then restore right

Thank you sorted , basically formatting the phone was the only option.

[trick] switching roms without loosing adopted sd data[mm]

Marshmallow had a new cool feature of adopted storage but all the flashoholics had trouble in changing roms because they have to format sd card every time they change roms .
I have a solution.
1:- while flashing rom wipe system dalvik cache and cache but dont wipe data .
2:- flash the rom and let it optimize apps .
3:- after optimizations most probably you will be in bootloop , simply boot into recovery and wipe data and reboot.
4:- your phone will optimize apps again and this time it will boot up and you can access sd card as adopted storage without need to format it again as internal.
This trick worked for me and should work for you guys too.
There's another method that is :-
1:- navigate to root folder
2:- copy all the files from data/misc/vold to somewhere in SD card
3:now boot to recovery wipe everything except SD card and flash new ROM .
4:- now using twrp's file manager move the files you from step 2 to the same folder I.e. data/misc/vold
5:-reboot
According to twrp dev, you can use this trick ' Note, if you factory reset and leave the key present in /data/misc/vold, then Android will still detect and use the adopted storage on the next boot.'

Dirty Flashing....and adopted sd card
If I dirty flash a rom by just clearing the cache and dalvik cache, will the old adopted sd card setting work or will I have to follow your procedure even then also?

Yup but most probably you will get boot loop if you have installed significant number of apps....so clean flash is advised......and use the trick mentioned

i had 39 apps installed so you can say i have lots of apps
but this never happened to me before i flashed 13th april nightly...

Sorry for bringing up this old thread again, but I've an issue where I had to hard reset in order to get root on my Moto X Pure. I didn't think about whether or not I should make any backups of my sd or nand.
I thought I could just continue using the sd as adopted storage on my new ROM.
Anyways, when doing this trick do I leave the sd card inside?

well it works. you can also switch from cm13 to cm14.1, but the option migrate data, to migrate from internal to adopted is missing afterwards

Just copy it to your SD card using file manager. Then when you flash ROM, go into twrp file manager and copy-paste it back to vold folder.
However, if you are on a nougat ROM then you don't need this entire trick at all! Just flash ROM without this trick. The .key will take care of itself automatically without any problem.

Well, in TWRP file manager, don't you see the option 'sdcard' ? Go to TWRP > Advanced > file manager > sdcard.
I'm also using SD as internal and flashing ROMs and stuff without using this trick (on nougat).

TWRP can't mount data

Wanted to make a backup but TWRP says 0MB next to data and when I tried to delete the TWRP (the one where it makes my backups) to make some space it says it couldn't mount data.
Boot to system, reboot to TWRP and try again.
I've tried that, doesn't work.

I can't actually save the log on my sd card because of this.
/data and /sdcard folders are empty in twrp file manager.
EDIT: here is exactly what I did to my device:
- Flashed soaktest when OTA was first captured without unlocking bootloader
- Unlocked bootloader
- Flashed official TWRP
- Made a full backup with TWRP
- Accidentally did systemless root which I did not know only worked on MM
- Restored backup
- Wanted to do another backup before going to CM 14.1 and saw that it showed 0MB next to data
- Flashed schreps' TWRP
I'm still on soaktest ATM. The phone is fully functioning as far as I know except for a few soaktest bugs.

You messed up your partitions imho. Try to change your data partition to fat first then back to ext4 with the mentioned method
I believe your only option would be to format(not wipe) data. Just so you know this erases internal storage as well. Or maybe a modified TWRP will work.

No problem, next time be aware of what you want to flash because mixing things can cause unwanted problems as you know for now
I have the same problem on my S8 (G950F) after rooting it, I have installed the twrp.
If I have the system partition to fat then I back to ext4, my data will be erased?
I want to fix it but I don't want loss all my data. :/

TWRP Format Data

Hi all sorry for asking a dumb question, but would "format data" button inside TWRP's Wipe section (the button above factory reset) also delete a TWRP backup?

If your twrp backup in microsd card then it will not delete.
"Format data" will delete ( system/data/cache/dalvic cache/internal storage)
If you are planning to clean your device to install new clean rom then Make a backup of current rom and all your data in microsd card/usb drive before you do this.
So if the backup was in the internal sd it would have been deleted then right?

After FORMAT DATA there is nothing there to recover.
Everything has gone, sorry.
Only if you had made a TWRP backup, stored in the external sdcard, then you could restore it and get your DATA files back.
But in that case also, your personal files(pictures, music etc) are not included in this back up.
Only APPS data, meaning files that make apps working, are restored this way.
ALL your personal data, are stored in the internal storage.
If you have performed a DATA format, nothing is there anymore.

So you can recover data if it was not overwritten, even if it was deleted. You can use special software.
Which options do we need to select to backup existing ROM? And to do a recover in case of device failure.
Boot? System? System Image? Vendor? Vendor Image?
Maybe a dumb question but: If you format data, can you boot in current rom?

No, you can't lol. Format data wipes everything on the storage of the device. You better install a rom after wiping everything or you will get stuck in bootloader / bootloops.
In some a/b slot devices, if you don't have a rom installed, your custom recovery is also wiped because it usually resides on the boot.img.

[G950F] No /data partition in TWRP after flashing oreo update

Hi,
ive just followed the flashable oreo TWRP thread in here to test out Oreo.
My device is S8 G950F
link -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...1-10-flashable-oreo-twrp-dump-beta-2-t3703083
After that TWRP didnt recognized my data partition anymore...:crying::crying:
So i installed latest TWRP in Odin again (had 3.1.1 before 3.2.0.0 after) - didnt helped.
Ive done a full restore with odin after i downloaded the firmware via samfirm, this is the exact firmware number ive used:
G950FOXM1AQJ5_CL12401979_QB15459675_REV00_user_low_ship
Still no success
I also tried flashing supersu (2.82) and dm-verifity (v.6.0).
Any ideas?
Is it just the partition table in twrp that needs to be updated or some stupid thing i forgot?

Sounds like your internal storage is encrypted and you see cryptic named folders that are empty. You can check the "decrypt data"

After flashing twrp you need to flash magisk or a custom kernel so the twrp won't be restored to stock recovery. Seems like you missed some steps on the instructions to root your device.

If you format internal storage it's nothing shown for sure, that's the purpose of format. After that you can install lineageos along with gapps from USB otg for example.
For DECRYPT data you should not format unless you backed up all to your pc!

If you format internal storage it's nothing shown for sure, that's the purpose of format. After that you can install lineageos along with gapps from USB otg for example.

What do you mean by "and doesn't change ..." exactly? Are you not able to install lineageos 15.1? I don't get you what's not working right now.

That's cause of encrypted internal storage imo. But why it's not working for you i don't know...

Yeap i didn't know too, i followed all the steps.
I started from oos 5.0.4 without any pins or password, i wiped -> factory reset and installed lineageos & GApps ...
At least i can see my sdcard folder right now ^^
Guys, I do the first steps with TWRP, but I see my SD Card empty when I go to install. I don't know what to do.
I have Samsung Galaxy TAB E (SM-T561) and twrp_2.8.7.0_sm-t561
I Don't know what to do... I am stuck.

Sounds like your internal storage is encrypted and you see cryptic named folders that are empty. You can check the "decrypt data"

Ok, I found the solution.
Format and change file system of the SD card inside the twrp, after that mount it in PC, restore the files, and it will be ok.
