You are seeing 'storage not mounted in twrp' know..? What's the error in the commad prompt using fastboot??

Does this method removes or wipes the current OS? I have Lineage OS installed and as on installing the OTA update through TWRP. there is this error which states unable to mount storage. I really don't wanna format wipe my data. Any help would be appreciated. thanks

Have anyone wipe everything before proceeding new installation.?

I had this Mount issue few minutes back and luckily i found this thread..And yeah repairing the mounts did worked out for me.
Thanks to Hitler_72485.
And yes! It will format everything.
I fell into this when i was doing normal wipe of partitions to install new rom, strangely it got struck while doing format..So i removed the battery and came up with those mounting issues. which ever partition i tried to wipe, mounting those failed afterwards. Then i tried this repairing thing with EXT4 FS. now everything is fine.
I did faced problems while repairing few but i did a normal repair swipe and then selected EXT4 swipe. (Don't know exactly what i did)
Hope No one will have this problem again. unless its a diff. case..!!
See ya.!!

[Q] TWRP backup fails on data partition "E: Unable to stat /data/data/../cache/ .. "

[Q] TWRP backup fails on data partition "E: Unable to stat /data/data/../cache/ .. "
Whenever I try a full nandroid backup in TWRP it always fails once it gets a few hundred files into the data partition. However, it does complete the backup when the data partition isn't selected.
When I first start the backup a bunch of different red error messages come up for various cache files in the data partition.
"E: Unable to stat '/data/data/[variousapp]/cache/[stuff]/[hashvalue?]' "
I've got a rooted T-Mobile Note 3 with Jedi Elite ROM and TWRP 2.8.1.0, however I'm not completely sure that my phone is legitimately rooted. If I try to open the SuperSU app it says "There is no SuperSU binary installed,...", and applications constantly achieve root access then get denied it moments later. Or sometimes the applications achieve root access with no further issues, it's quite random.
Does anyone have any idea what could be going on?
EDIT: It also should be noted that the files in the error messages can be found when using the TWRP file manager, but when using any file manager application with the OS booted the "/data" folder appears empty.
Anyone have any idea?
Thanks
Well.... from the top of my head I would try to do these things:
1) install one of those "check to see if I am rooted" apps and run it.
2) flash a kernel that has been prerooted, i.e.:that it installs the SU binary to the appropriate location.
3) flash one of those .zip packages in twrp that root your phone.
4) check to see if you can make twrp install root for you ( i think when it doesn't detect root binary it offers to do that).
5) reinstall rom only part as a last resort?
Once you restore proper root access you might need to restore proper SELinux labels to /cache /system /data.
Let me know if you get to this part and need specific instructions.
Best of luck

I flashed the latest SuperSU.zip and that ended up fixing root access. The Root Checker app verifies it as well as other applications being granted root access.
I tried flashing CF-Auto-Root in TWRP and it fails.
How do I restore the SELinux labels for those directories?
You caught me on my way to bed but here are the instructions:
From terminal or adb shell
su
ll -Z
(check for any "unlabeled" text for /data /cache /system)
restorecon -Rv /cache
restorecon -Rv /data
mount -o remount,rw /system
restorecon -Rv /system
mount -o remount,ro /system
ll -Z (you should not find any "unlabeled" /cache /data /system)
Let me know how it goes
I tried all those commands from the terminal and it still shows all of the same "Unable to stat" error messages when backing up
The "ll -Z" command, is that supposed to be double pipe or double L? I'd never seen a double L command before so I couldn't get it to work if that's what it is.
Sorry to budge in but I have the same problem too on my oneplus one. Everytime I do something in twrp it saids unable to stat /data/data/com.android.chrome/something I wiped /data and it still does that. I tried to install custom rom and when it starts it saids something is wrong with my system udi and com.android.phone keeps on crashing. So I don't know how I am suppose to fix this. If I format /data I will lose all my pictures,music,apps,etc. since it will wipe /data/media? Any help?
Edit: Upon reading the first post again, I also can't perform nandroid backup because it fails at /data. Which was why I wanted to try different rom and wipe /data to see if it would be fixed.

alright i said screw it and wiped internal storage and it fixed the issue. i had to push ROM onto the new storage through ADB but it seemed to fix the issue.
For anyone who is wondering you need to do a FULL wipe (ie in recovery wipe EVERYTHING including internal storage), then push or mount devices through recovery and put ROM back onto SD card.

Well you fixed it the easy way, I went to the thread on how to turn oneplus one back to stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
I unzipped the 44s Stock ROM and manually flashed each file via adb to it, that cleared up all my problems. I did lose some data, at least at had my apps, messages, and pictures backed up.

I have this same problem with my OPO and I tried a full wipe including internal storage, but the "unable to stat..." problem still persists. Should I try using the "Format Data" option on TWRP instead of just the "Advanced Wipe"? I tried searching online for the difference but I can't really find any information.

So I had my issue on my OPO also, still never confirmed what the actual issue was but after some googling I saw this thread and maybe one more with the same error description.
From TWRP I went Wipe->Advanced Wipe->Clicked ALL boxes.
From what I could tell the issue is actually on the "internal storage" partition which is your emulated SD Card.
I'm not actually sure what the "Format Data" option does tbh I never had to go that far.
Word of warning, make sure you have ADB working and you know how to push files to your phone. You can in theory use the "mount" option from TWRP and connect to a PC as an extendable drive but this functionality is super flaky and is known to not work on occasion.
you don't have to!!!!!!!!!!!
actually i formated it and i was looking for a way to transfer my zip file to internal storage ........... but when i clicked on backup/restore it started to install and booted normally !!!!!!!!!!!!! (by temp boot file)
Sad I am also facing this problem too. At last I have to format everything to get my phone working again, wiping /data does not work, must wipe /data including media.
Internal Storage failure?
This happens to me all the time all of a sudden. I did not change anything at all, except for flashing a new CM version.
I also get a strange stat error, something with google.photo cache.
Yesterday, I have then flashed the new 2.8.6(7) and that gave my phone the rest. It might be because I flashed through TWRP itself into the recovery partition, but now additional to the backup error above when I want to erase dalvik cache, the recovery just hangs. I also can't restore a backup atm.
Now I have reflashed the real 2.8.6.0 recovery and it still hangs when I want to wipe dalvik... wtf is going on here?
And oh yea, my phone does not boot anymore either, it just loops at the flash screen...
UPDATE:
After I found some info on this thread about similar issues, I factory reset my phone with stock recovery (TWRP was not reliable anymore, even the 2.8.6.0 version that was running perfectly before) and then reflashed the latest CM on a wiped internal storage. Now I am up and running again with minimal loss of data due to my TB backups that are scheduled and save to the SD.
But this leaves a very weird feeling back, basically my phone was rendered useless out of nowhere (I was running the previous CM for 2 weeks already), making TWRP backups impossible and forcing me to wipe the internal storage with all media on it without giving me the chance to back it up (MTP in TWPR was also very flaky and died several times half in copy operations). Something is going very wrong with this phone, never ever had that on any of my 5 previous htc devices and the fact that the OnePlusOne users are among the main ones that reported similar issues, I have a feeling it is linked to cheap storage quality. Motorola is a Chinese company now after all... :-/
Hello,
I had the same issue with my Galaxy s4 GT-I9500, it said "E: Unable to stat /data/...", wiping didn't fix, but after I run "format data", it fixed the issue for me.
I have been going through the same issue. I can fix it for 'a while' (by wiping and formatting data) before it comes back again. Anyone knows how to get rid of this once and for all?

You might not know this, but every device has its own different system partitions. The thread you were referring to is for Asus Transformer Pad. Following that might make the problem worse.

In that tutorial mmcblk0p8 is being formatted because that memory location has the /data directory on Asus Transformer. But, in our device the /data can be in any other partition, and doing that might brick the device permanently
Delete the recovery log from twrp folder and flash another twrp from flashtool or rash..what version are you using? If it is indeed a corrupted partition, you can reflash your phone using qfill
Try using the Fix Permissions in TWRP recovery...
It may help.

Best way is install the latest twrp I.e 3.0.2 and do the format everything instead of advanced wipe. Your problem will be solved. I too faced the same problem and I did what I have advised you. It worked.

Is the problem resolved??
I have solution
Bro don't take so much tension , thats not hardware problem its only your Recovery's reading cache error . you can simply fix this by flashing old version of recovery and from that old recovery again wipe what you want to remove but man don't touch your mount section column , after wiping data and anything else simply flash new twrp.img then simply reboot recovery . wollllaaa you got your partion cache back now again you can simply flash you favorite roms. I hope you understand what you have to do now . But please follow these steps carefully :good: .
Remember don't flash KitKat recovery over lolipop recovery otherwise you got bootloop. Old recovery means suppose if you have now twrp v 3.1 just simply flash v2.8 then after wiping things you want , then simply flash twrp v 3.1 .
If you still have any doubt you can contact me via WhatsApp - +91 9205097520 (indian no. ) or simply reply me on xda or simply mail me at - [email protected] . And at last don't forget to tell me about your device problem .

Gt i9506 10 gb used by system after flashing.

hello there!
some months ago i tried a custom firmware on my 9506 (i think that was the first version of arya mod) but i didnt kinda like it so i downloaded again the stock fw and flashed it back.
i did my typicall "download the basic apps" routine and on the 4th app an "insufficient storage available" message appeared on my screen and i was like "lol whats wrong?" i checked on and i found that 10.6Gb was used by system.
Well i thought that i downloaded maybe a bugged stock rom and i didnt have the free time at the time to check whats wrong so i decided to live with it till i find some spare time to check it again.
Yesterday i downloaded and flashed the lineage os fw and i was sure that this would fix the problem...but...well it didnt..still 10.6 used by system.
i tried wipe EVERYTHING (dalvik/cache/system/internal) and reflashed again but still nothing,i flashed again the stock rom,still nothing, i searched online but i didnt find a solution, i downloaded diskusage app to see where are those 10gbs but i couldnt figure out where they where.
So if anyone knows anything or had the same or similar problem it would be great if he/she write here and give a solution or some tips.
Thanks in advance

i fixed it guys
i flashed again cwm recovery and i formated EVERYTHING from there and then reflashed again the rom and gapps and that fixed the problem.

For the record, CWM's incremental backup feature was what I believe was stealing your space. If you still have CWM on that device, make sure to set the default nandroid backup format to ".tar" instead of ".dup", clear out your nandroid backups, clear all the allocated space, and then upgrade to the latest version of TWRP.
CWM hasn't been updated in a few years now and has difficulty installing modern ROMs.
you are right i think.
if i recall corectly when i flashed that rom back then before the problem appeared, i used cwm recovery so yeah maybe thats the main reason that this happened.
i allready set the default backup to .tar and cleared out all the nandroid backups and i allready use TWRP now.
thanks for the tip mate!

S8 TWRP Error

Hi all,
Yesterday I managed to root my phone all fine with TWRP and SuperSU. Then after incorrectly uninstalling the security log agent and getting a million errors I foolishly deleted the stock OS.
I have download the correct version for my phone and location but now TWRP fails to launch.
I get the follows errors when booting to the recovery.
Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
Unable to recreate /data/media folder
Unable to mount storage
Unable to mount /data/media/TWRP/.twrps
I have googled a millions things and am still stuck.
Interestingly tho, If i install the Indian version of the OS, it loads and roots no problems (I'm from New Zealand).
Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi
Your internal memory now corrupt you have to format it.
Use twrp wipe option select internal memory then format to fat32 after that again do same thing. This time choose its original format type.

Hi, thanks for the fast reply.
Iv'e tried this option, I installed the Indian OS which works with TWRP, formatted the Data drive to FAT (Fat32 isn't an option) and then back to EXT4. I then used Odin to Install the carrier firmware I want to run and the same errors occurred. Could it be a problem with the actual OS?
Edit** When I install the Carrier firmware I can't get TWRP to open, these errors occur as soon as it opens, and then it crashes and reboots

Hi hi, tried that several times. Would still like to find out what is causing the issue but have now installed Nemisis and all is working perfrctly which makes me think it's the OS as opposed to my file system, considering I have installed multiple other versions and ran TWRP no problems.
Got same problem here. Installed TWRP to flash a custom rom, TWRP can't mount /data.
Google doesn't give me any solutions
This fixed it for me:
- download stock firmware from sammobile & flash with Odin
- go into stock recovery
- wipe data and cache partitions
- flash twrp using odin
After that, TWRP was able to mount /data and function normally again
