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
I was on 10T official. I decided to unlock bootloader, I followed the guide, I my storage was unencrypted...
I have unlocked bootloader and then installed TWRP 3.1.1.
After a boot, I have installed a Stock modified ROM (Fulmics ROM 2.0).
After reboot, the phone is stuck on LG logo, and after minutes it reboots and stucks on LG logo and the reboot...... etc etc
Entering TWRP again, it says my Data is encrypted and asks me for the password.
I have formatted Data, and reinstalled Fulmics ROM, but, same problem. Stuck on LG logo. Now entering TWRP there is no partition encrypted... but...
What should I do now?
Reinstall stock using LGUP

Restore the official firmware with LGup, install again the TWRP, make a format data (format, not wipe), install whatever you want to get twrp stuck (SuperSU, magisk ECC...), Reboot system, then reboot in twrp, manually or by a rebooter app, wipe system, data, cache and dalvik, install fulmics with your favourite aroma settings, after that reboot recovery, flash the 2.1 ota, and reboot system.
Now wait some minutes, it'll reboot again once, it's normal, when happens just wait again for some minutes, and it should boot normally.
I've installed this rom a bunch of times (for a bunch of reasons) and never had Bootloop problems doing this.
Good luck:good:
Thanks, stock firmware like this one? https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/development/rom-h870-10f-rom-imgs-kdz-t3615183
And in LGUP should I do anything particular? Or just reinstall kdz?
Then, should I format only Data partition or also system or others?
You can decrypt data through fastboot

Here it is the kdz: https://lg-firmwares.com/download-file/?fileId=10110
Just reinstall the kdz with upgrade option.
You have only to format data (not wipe, remember).
Thanks, worked!
Mmm... No, I was able to reinstall stock rom, but then, when I try to format Data I get error like "Failed to unmount /system (Device or resource busy)" and then "Failed to mount /data", "Unable to recreate /data/media folder...
And also when I install Magisk I have those errors... (Failed to mount system and data).
Booting up, stock rom is ok, and also Magisk, so phone is rooted.
But when I reboot to recovery and I install fulmics rom, it seems to install correctly, it shows a final error of mount system and when I boot I still have stock rom, without Magisk or fulmics settings... so It is not installed fulmics rom! Tomorrow I will try another time. By now I keep stock rom rooted. Anyway I'm happy to see how easy is to reinstall stock rom.

Try to download twrp from the official twrp post. There are some problems with twrp /system mount. Then format data and install magisk the first time.

I downloaded the official one from twrp.me version 3.1.1.0 2017-06-30. Is there any new beta/modded twrp to install?

In my case the official twrp from twrp.me had the problem of unable to mount system. I read all the twrp Guide from LG G6 in rom, recovery root section and I read that had some problems and they posted an usefull twrp. Try downloading twrp from these post.
I've installed experimental TWRP over official TWRP posted here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73071238&postcount=228 and works, no more mount error.
Now I have installed Fulmics rom. I'm happy!
Thanks to all
I had previously been able to flash roms on my ze520kl, had it rooted with magisk running xenon android 8.1
I had some issues with the phone not taking my pin so I attempted to restore and reflash, but nothing had worked so now I've done a full data wipe and its refusing to take any rom zip files including stock.
I've tried reflashing stock boot.img and recovery.img and going back to twrp and reflashing but I keep getting error:7 and its saying that it can't mount /system and /cache
mount: failed to mount /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system at /system: invalid argument
What can I do to fix this? Let me know if you need more info
possibly solved, seems to be flashing from internal storage just fine. I was going from external SD before
Hi, I'll try to be as detailed as possible but just know that I am somewhat of an amateur with android and I only have surface level knowledge.
I have an Axon 7 that I successfully installed OrdenKrieger's unofficial LineageOS 16.0 a few months ago (build 20181114). I saw recently that there was a new build so I booted to TWRP to flash it, but found that I could not access my file system. I am able to select (in the mount menu) system, cache, and persist, but not data. I then tried to reformat my data based on a thread I found, but then I booted back to TRWP the same problem was still there.
If anyone could help me solve this it would be very much appreciated. I have a few other problems too with root installation and dac selection, but this I am just not able to figure out why is happening.
I am on a vendor partition, but I do not remember which tool I used, just that it was one of the first to come out after Lineage 16 was released for the Axon 7. My TWRP version is 3.3.1-0 and I am not sure which bootloader/modem I installed either.
Maybe try reformating/changing your vendor partition size
I have the same problem, installed LOS 16.0 recently and TWRP is unable to mount internal storage. Anyone have a fix for this? Have tried flashing the latest TWRP via fastboot but didn't help
This error always happens and stays forever after I reboot into the rom the first time. I turn on OTA updates for the ROM all the time, and currently on crDroid 6.11. Error makes it so I cannot flash other things on top of the rom like ANXCamera.
Tried to repair the /data partition, but it also comes out with an error:
/sbin/e2fsck -fp /dev/block/mmcblk0p66 process ended with ERROR: 1
Unable to repair data. I rebooted to system, then rebooted back to the recovery, and repaired the /data partition again, but this time it was successful. but it did not solve the issue, the "Have you lost something?" prompt stayed there.
Decryption works fine, I have a pattern lock and fingerprint, and when booting into recovery and OrangeFox asking for the pattern to decrypt the drive, it works fine and I can see the files, so I don't think its an encryption issue.
I also flashed Magisk by rebooting to recovery a second time after flashing the rom then flashing Magisk.zip
The only way I worked around this issue before was by wiping system, cache, dalvik and formatting data partition, and reinstalling OrangeFox. but it still comes back after flashing crDroid again and booting into the ROM, I don't have any idea how to fix the error.
Every time you install a new ROM, the internal storage in wiped . Internal storage contains a folder "Fox" which contains OrangeFox addons. When it gets deleted , you get that message in recovery.
