I got many problems with TWRP, every time I installed a ROM the internal storage on TWRP doesn't appears. I tried many times clean data it went good, then encrypted again. How do I fix this problem?
Format data (no wipe), or try the previous version twrp.
Download and flash orange fox, done.

This started happening with a working RR android 7.1 ROM I have used for several days. Today, I wanted to try out LineageOS 14.1 so I made a nandroid backup of data and internal storage. When I rebooted into RR the screen was flickering and a message constantly popped up stating that com.android.phone stopped and Calendar stopped and com.android.media stopped etc etc.
So I went on and did a full clean flash
I tried t remove my sim and the clean flash but to no avail. I do advanced wipe --> Dalvik/ART cache, System, Data, Internal Storage, and Cache before every flash today. Then i flash ROM and latest gapps, wipe cache/dalvik and reboot.
Even without flashing gapps, the problem is still there.
Running on TWRP 3.0.0 (worked for several days on RR android 7.1 ROM), but tried on 3.0.2-2, 3.0.2, and 3.0.1 with the same results.
How did this happen? Is my EFS and IMEI f'ed because of the nandroid backup of data and internal storage?
How do I fix this?
Kind regards and a happy new year!
Same here. Twrp is the culprit, I'm afraid. It isn't taking good backups. Just fresh install RR and download all your apps, it'll work. Can't wait for twrp update...
i needed to format system to ext 4 and now everything works!
Hi!
Since last year I used CM14.1 and now decided to upgrade to LOS14.1.
After installing LOS14.1 via TWRP (after wiping data-cache-system) I tried to encrypt the phone, but after rebooting, it came up unencrypted.
Tried another round with clean installs of LOS14.1 and XenonHD7.1, both didn't work.
I already went back to OP original recovery and OxygenOS 3.5.8, even there the phone claims to encrypt, reboots and comes back after a few seconds unencrypted.
Any idea, what to change to get the OP2 encrypted?
Regards,
Hemingway
Take a backup by connecting your phone in twrp to pc. It should show as a mass storage.
Then you need to go to wipe > format data.
This will completely wipe your data. Then copy your rom back to your phone in twrp and flash.
This should fix it.
Hi there, I have an Axon 7 with LineageOS that was working like a charm until I rebooted it today. It was in the normal lineage OS boot animation with the blue circle moving from right to left, except it never stopped. Now after trying a few more times, it just keeps playing the animation except the phone will vibrate slightly every several seconds. The phone is encrypted but that hasn't been a problem. When I reboot to TWRP, it says Unable to mount storage.
I tried wiping Cache and Dalvik / ART Cache, but this didn't help. Finally, I do have a backup from 7-20-2017 but I'd rather not have to go back to that...
Any recommendations?

So you can't see the internal storage from TWRP? I'm guessing encryption actually plays a part here. Formatting data is probably the best course of action, though you should flash magisk or superSu if you do, to get rid of encryption. But you obviously lose everything that's on the internal storage.
Maybe make a system and boot backup and clean flash Lineage. Like, wipe system and caches, then flash the bootloader, modem, LOS and whatever else you flash

Is it easier to just use the backup I have currently? If so, what are the steps necessary for that (sorry for newb questions, haven't messed with it in a while)
EDIT: Also, TWRP claims decryption is successful when it is loading up.

Again. Can you see the internal storage?
Don't restore the backup. Your problem is basically either on /system (clean flash of the ROM will do) or on /data (complete format of data is needed). So try the non destructive one first

I don't see any storage folder. So if I want to install the latest LOS and frankly just start from scratch, can I follow the guide here https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/axon7/install#installing-lineageos-from-recovery starting from "Installing LineageOS from recovery"? Will I still need to install something to wipe the encryption?

What? No... That's for normal phones. How did you manage to install LOS without knowing that you need the univ. bootloader and modem?
So, you can't access the internal storage via the file manager on TWRP i'm guessing.
Wipe - Format data, after that flash the Universal bootloader, modem, LOS, Magisk, GApps. Magisk takes care of dm-verity and disables encryption. Don't try to uninstall it though or your internal storage will get encrypted as soon as you do. But if you want to change ROMs you can just fpash it before booting and it won't ger encrypted.
Hey, so I can't decrypt my device anymore. Not in Android itself, and not in the recovery. I've tried sideloading no_verity.zip and formatting the system via fastboot, so far nothing helped. When I try to flash the stock rom via sideload, it says it's not readable. I don't know if thats because I didn't decrypt the device before flashing or because the zip is faulty, but I've tried 3 diffrent roms, including one that has worked before.
Is there anything I can do to get my phone working again?
Device: Onepluss 5 6GB
Rom: Omnirom
Install latest codeworkx twrp or blue spark twrp, skip password menu, format data (not wipe), reboot recovery, now wipe everything, then flash what you want

Thank you! That worked. I figuered formatting data and wiping data would work quite the same, but thanks for proofing me wrong ^^
Hey everybody.
I have a problem on the phone and i have been trying to fix it for about 2 days.But no luck.
I had been using MIUI for about 1 year, then i wanted to flash a custom rom.The recovery is orangefox R11.1.On the recovery i wipe cache, dalvik, data and system and i try to flash Pixel experience 9.Also i tried to flash lineageos 16.But the same problem occurs.Just after the flash i clean dalvik and cache.And just for the first boot it says the data is encrypting.I can not escape from it.When i restart it asks for a pin and as you know there is no pin i added, so i can not put it.Then to decrypt the data i have to wipe data again.Then if i flash theese roms the same problem again.
Also i, just after the flashing, before rebooting the phone, tried to delete some lock files on /data/system folder.But unless i reboot there is not a system folder in data.And if i try to reboot it encrypts the folder again.
Is there any fix for that?I am expecting your ideas or helps.Thank you.
Does the rom boot?
Try formatting (not wiping) the data partition. Obviously you'll lose all the data but I think it's the only way. When you change rom on rn7 you have to format data.

Thank you very much.I fixed the problem and wanted to share it here to help the others who face the same problem.
-First of all i upgraded the latest version of orange fox.
-I formatted data partition completely.Then i wiped Data, Dalvik, Cache, System.
-I flashed Pixel Experience 9 rom.But an important thing is before i flash the rom i enter options > OTA & ROM settings.And ticked "Disable Forced Encryption".
-Then i flashed the rom and on the line it says "disabling forced encryption".And it worked.Now i use the rom without any problem.
