Hi all.
I wanted to install new firmware to my Samsung Galaxy S3 Duos i9301i. I've installed TWRP 3.1 succesfully, but when I wanted to format partitions, I've accidentally formatted /preload with /dalvik-cache, /system and /cache.
Is it possible to restore it?
Put a custom rom on an sd card and install it with twrp.

Hey Guys,
I m in trouble.
I was going through my usual wipe procedure before flashing a new Rom and I managed to Wipe Internal Storage!!!
I use TWRP 2.3.3.2.
I tried to mount internal storage to copy again the new Rom but it cannot be mounted.
I get "Unable to mount 'usb-otg'
Any ideas ??
I finally managed to unroot my phone restoring stock Rom by using this guide

This is because you haven't formatted to ext

Yea, i formated but i didn't reseted recovery so it was showing that cache and other is corrupted, you can close thread.
I have Samsung Galaxy s7 edge(SM-G935FD) Indian edition.
My twrp can't read internal storage when i click select storage it shows 0mb. I can still access my otg partition. I cannot also format any partition as it shows cannot mount /data.
I have tried following things without success-:
1)I have tried multiple versions of twrp.
2)Flashed no-verity-opt-encrypt zip using otg
3)Flashed complete stock firmware multiple times & re-flashed twrp.
Note-: i have flashed nogut beta but before installing twrp i reverted to stock by flashing all 4 files of firmware including bp.
Added a picture of twrp log(can't save screenshot as internal storage isn't mounting)
You have to do wipe/format data/yes. Then reboot back into twrp. After that you flash no drmverity/supersu.
I have unlocked the bootlaoder and am running TWRP 3.2.1-0 and have made several onto my SD card. All completed with no issues.
Upon attempting to restore, the backup seems to work and then a TWRP message that says the restore won't boot unliess I change to f2fs.
I've never used f2fs and am wondering is this because of the version of oreo (OPS28,85-13) that I am running?
So I have backups that I can't use or could I move them to internal storage from the card?
Thanks
So i have tried to downgrade to android 7.0 from oreo as i have replaced the screen to an unoriginal one and the touchscreen didn't work (j730f/ds.). I flashed twrp through odin and it booted up but i couldn't use touchscreen as well. so then i found older version of twrp (3.2.1-0) and it worked but it claims it is unable to mount storage. changing filesystem works only for cache and system (i haven't tried changing it for whole storage option or internal memory as i don't want to format the efs folder) and my question is what should i do now? flashing anyting using twrp doesn't work and i'm not very keen on loosing my imei.

The system partition and EFS partition are separate partitions to /data, so no need at all to touch those.
Format the data partition and it will mount.
The Format data option can be found under the wipe settings.
