I converted a stable version of cyanogenmod into f2fs format. Everything was going well until I accidentally updated it and now it just sits on a bootloop. Anyone have any ideas how I can fix this without wiping. No i didnt get to create a nandroid.

The update you installed likely reformatted your system and cache partitions back to ext4. Try reformatting them and reflashing your ROM.
Alternatively, you could also try just flashing an f2fs-compatible kernel first to see if that gets it booting for you. That may be all you need if /data is still formatted as f2fs.
Did you used TWRP to convert to f2fs ?
I have converted my Nexus 7(grouper) to all f2fs and flashed slimlp. How do I convert it Ext4 file system and flash CM 12 Nightlies.?
I believe it's the same way you converted to F2FS, but this time select "EXT4" and not "F2FS".
I thought of doing that, but better get to know from someone who has done that before.
Flashing factory image restored to ext4.. That is safest method to do this.
After you convert everything back ext4, you can convert the data and cache back to f2fs because the nightlies in cm12 support this. You just need to leave the system partition as ext4 since this isn't supported yet.
Yup, I have seen those options, but didn't convert it to F2FS.I am giving my tab to my brother and he is not interested in flashing and all, but before giving I wanted to try baton(I have a one plus one), that's why I have flashed CM12.1. I was unable to get baton work.
Curious to know if anyone has successfully booted after converting more than just data partition to F2FS, Thanks in advance
Hello, Everyone...... I unlocked the bootloader of my Moto G4 plus, installed a custom recovery (TWRP 3.1.0 Shreps) and tried to flash lineage OS latest build with Open Gapps pico, All i get is a bootloop. The same happens with Omnirom and other roms... So far only RR and Invicta OS booted up successfully.... rest others give me a bootloop... why? Did i miss something? Please Help me
Also the cache partition and data partition are formatted in f2fs....can anyone tell me the default formats of these two partitions? Maybe f2fs is creating an issue here?

Are you clean flashing ROM? (Wiping /system /data /cache /delvik-cache )
Anything else you are flashed with ROM and Gapps?
Try without GApps.
As I understand it, Invicta and RR have f2fs support for cache built in, whereas other ROMs may not have the support (there's a particular commit, if I recall).
The normal formats for cache and system are ext4 whereas data appears to be f2fs. You may wish to attempt formatting cache as ext4 and seeing if your device can boot.
Yes, It worked. Formatted cache to ext4 and it works. Thanks Bros. Facing issues with VOLTE in Lineage, Omni and AOSP extended. I placed my jio sim in sim 1 and enabled 'enhanced LTE' but still no luck with VOLTE.

VoLTE doesn't works on LineageOS, you can try Unofficial Builds which may support VoLTE or you can try RR OS which supports VoLTE Natively
I changed my partitions to ext4 but it wont let me change my data partition back to f2fs, on account of TWRP not supporting f2fs tools... Im not sure if that would even solve the problem though. It seems flashing TO ext4 has helped some people bypass the open gapps bootloop and also removing the sim and using a terminal command to change build.prop… but none of these helped me.
I am running Omnirom 9.0 and it runs nice, fast and smooth without gapps, the problem only happens after flashing gapps and after that is just stays on the OMNI boot animation.
So far I've tried pico, nano, micro ARM 9.0
edit: now that I look at it, gapps mounts /persist and /system... so im just overall confused since the rom is running fine..
