So I'm new to this whole custom ROM scene but I'll get straight to the point. I installed Resurrection Remix on my Moto E4 and then I flash GApps but it got stuck on "Mounting partitions" and stayed stuck for like an hour. I tried a different version of GApps then and the same thing happened. I don't know what to do and I have no clue what's even happening. Please someone explain this to a noob so I can get GApps installed on this phone. Mind you that Resurrection Remix installed fine and was even running when I booted the phone.
Having the same issue... Did you find a solution?
The issue was that I was booted into TWRP through fastboot instead of through a flashed recovery. Once I flashed the recovery partition and booted there, everything worked fine.

Hi all,
I was running the official Google 5.1.1 version until this morning. I now did an oem unlock using fastboot and installed the latest twrp recovery 3.0.0, and finally copied overy CM-13 nightly (and Chroma-2016-02 for testing purposes) using adb.
Flashing itself work flawless, there is no warning or error message, but when hitting "Reboot" within twrp the Google logo shows up for a few seconds and it directly boots into twrp again. This is with both, CM-13 and the latest Chroma.
So I basically cannot get my Nexus-4 bootet regulary any more.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
Any help is welcome,
regards, mistersixt.
Mmmh, strange, I did a factory installation (latest 5.1.1 from Google) and started the same thing from scratch ... and guess what... the system is booting fine now.
No idea why it did not work on my first attempt .

Same here. Running stock until today, wanted to see a different ROM, flashed TWRP 3.0.0, it refused to boot anything else. Tried to flash DU, then tried Chroma. Did a full wipe, then an advanced wipe selecting everything, then a full format, same thing. Installed TWRP 2.8.7, same thing. Finally installed latest stock, it is now booting, optimizing apps. I don't know if installing a custom rom will work or not yet.
Edit: Yeap, after flashing stock 5.1.1 and installing TWRP 3 again, the phone is now booting into DU.
First time I did a wipe with TWRP, it complained that it couldn't mount /data. Since this is the first time doing it, I assumed it was normal. After going through a full format, it didn't complain about data anymore, but it did complain about something to do with /dev/zero and another file under /dev/. I assume it was trying to dd /dev/zero to a file under /dev/ that didn't exist.

Done the whole process from scratch again and worked like a charm
Hello, same story here.
First I:
- unlocked bootloader
- flashed TWRP (last version)
- flashed Chroma and Gapps
- reboot
=> I consistently rebooted on TWRP. No way to properly install the ROM. No error message at all.
Then I found this thread, and did as described:
- flashed the latest stock ROM
- flashed TWRP again (took me ages to manage to do this: TWRP would not install. I don't know how I finally did it, but at some point it suddenly worked. Probably a driver problem)
- flashed Chroma and Gapps again
Bingo, this time it worked! I don't know why it didn't work the first time. Could it be linked to the bootloader unlock thing?
Hi, I need help in installing Recovery.
I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and then CyanogenMod 13 ROM.
After this, Oxygen Os 3 got released. I downloaded the zip file and flashed through TWRP.
Oxygen OS got installed but after this, I couldn't go back in TWRP recovery.
I tried everything. I use "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
everything works
but when I boot in recovery, phone gets stuck on the LOGO and nothing happens.
Is there any way to solve this issue.
Almost the same for me.
When I flash oOS 3.0.2, unable to reboot using Grarak'sTWRP or TWRP-3.0.2-1.
Always stuck on boot logo without animation.
I reverted to old TWRP and oOS 2.2.1

Try to install OOS recovery or Hybrid recovery.
Nobody ever learns or reads nowadays....
Read up on bootloader versions on Oneplus 2 and you will find the explanation perfectly understandable.
Thank You So much for your help. Finally it worked but I lost my data! Anyways, no issues.
Can you give us the way you fixed your problem .
Thanks
Phone is Lenovo A6000, not plus. I installed multiple TWRPs, 3.1.0 and 2.9 something.
I even installed CWM, still couldn't boot to the recovery.
Now, I know how to flash with fastboot, and I know how to boot. Booting doesn't work at all, it says "booting" and never finishes.
Flashing says "okay" and I reboot, do a reboot to recovery, and I get put into bootloader/fastboot.
Any help? I just bought the phone today, no one messed with it.
Edit: Nevermind. CWM installed. How do I install TWRP, so it works? Also, forgot to mention that the phone has the latest stock rom, 4.4.4.
Edit#2: While trying to install "TWRP-3.1.0-Lenovo-A6000.img",
I got an error.
"Can't open /tmp/update.zip (bad)"
"Installation aborted."
Edit#3: Same error with multiple TWRP images.
First of all the twrp 3.1.0 is meant for nougat roms. Since you are flashing that recovery on KitKat rom which it won't support. So first try updating phone to stock lollipop. Then flash twrp 2.8. then take a complete backup(most important) and save it on SD card. After that flash any rom you want. If you are flashing marshmallow or nougat rom then after flashing rom flash 3.1.0 twrp.
I have long ago (10 minutes after last edit) fixed the problem already by flashing stock firmware through some weird software, and then started updating to latest lollipop firmware, and then installed TWRP 3.1 and then installed RR android version 7.1.2. But, thank you for trying to help. I hereby ask a moderator to close the thread because the problem was resolved. Thank you.
I found out about dc unlocker and unlocked bootloader. Installed twrp and wiped data/dalvic/system as said in the thread . Tried to flash havoc os. It flashed successfully but It didn't boot. After that I tried to install lineage os 15.1 and omni, none of them booted. I have access to erecovery twrp and fastboot. I can flash all of the os's successfully but none of them boot. I would like to get any os working rn since this is my main phone which I didn't back up because I was stupid. I tried to install magisk on the first time I tried installing Havoc and one guy said it could be the reason why it doesn't boot. That same guy also said that it could be the encryption preventing boot but I have no idea how to decrypt anything. Any hint's are appreaciated.

Had the same problem yesterday, just follow this guide:
h ttps://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/development/mod-decrypt-data-emui-8-t3765403
For me, it made the trick.
I actually solved it by doing format data in twrp instead of just wiping it.
I installed TWRP 3.1.1 using the ODIN patched version and was successful. I had let the system boot into the samsung original stock from where you see "HI" then I rebooted it into TWRP to attempt flashing and I got the /data partition couldn't be wiped. So I ran some of the other repair functions in TWRP and that appear to have fixed it. I then flashed with the latest LineageOS, Gsap, and Magistk20. When it boots up the LineageOS I'm stuck on the Lineage Splash screen. I've let it run over night and it has't changed anything. Any advice?
I recommend trying to wipe the system and reinstall LineageOS with flashing Magisk. If the same problem occurs. Just wipe the system and flash LineageOS without installing Magisk.

Here's how I think I fixed it.
booted into TWRP
advanced wipe, Factory reset
booted it into TWRP
Flashed the LineageOS
boot into LineageOS
boot it into TWRP
flashed the Gapps.
I'm up and running now. I tried different iterations and It really bothered me because it worked fine on another one. I was also at time flashing it with SuperSU and other times with Magisk. It didn't matter which one I used it got stuck on the LineageOS splash screen.

By the way, it's called the boot animation. The splash screen is like the Samsung screen that says powered by Android.
Possible corrupted file

So far you're quite correct I personally have three SM-T580's and they all seem to work just a little bit different. Might I suggest doing an MD5 Sumcheck? The device shouldn't be getting into a bootloop unless there was something wrong with the files, or the device.
