Before installing rom in twrp, the system entry is never deleted, the Dalvik / Art Cache cache, Data, Cache is cleared, rom is installed and Data is formatted.

I am not understanding... just wiped Dalvik/ART Cache, Data, Cache withoud problems, but System still can not be wiped... I format Data too without problem... what I should do now?

Never lubricate the system!
It is clear that then there are problems.

You must first install firmware 11, preferably the latest version, for example POCO M3 EEA Stable Recovery V12.5.5.0.RJFEUXM. Move it to sdkard, go to TWRP and delete: 1.Dalvik / ART Cache 2. Data 3. Internal storage 4.Cache DO NOT DELETE OTHER! 5. Start the A11 firmware installation 6. FORMATTING after installation. 7. Restart I recommend installing the firmware for a better system installation.

Just installed "miui_CITRUSGlobal_V12.5.7.0.RJFMIXM_fa891a2765_11.0.zip" and it works again! Thank You!
But now I am afraid to install custom roms... My fear is that I lock it...

Excellent.
Remember, don't delete anything extra.

Ok, I tested a while and it seems that call recording does not work... this is why I would like to try some custom roms. My target is to have a working call recording without "audible announcing of record start". What should I do now to successfully install, for example, cdDroid?

Custom rom installation is done in the same way as firmware,
Clean Dalvik / Art Cache, Data Cache, Install Rom and Format Data.

ok, crDroid installed but it goes in boot loop... i think because juice version is not proper for citrus...
I will try other roms.... thank you very very much rotoko!!

I tried a lot of cust rom, but none of them suited me, I use xiaomi eu, the best ones e.g. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MeP3ZpFps05Mlz9DxBGPI5QNFVj8cNUB/view?usp=sharing

Wow, that rom seems really cool... and call recording works as I want! Thank you very very very much!!

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.
But this is ASus phone it works on lenovo a6000

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 .

I got two Failed to unmount '/data' (Device or resource busy) errors when wiping, when flashing LOS it said detected ext4. Nothing else failed that i could see, let's see what happens.
Edit: nope, still goes to twrp.
Edit2: I think I have found the issue. It says it is f2fs.
I keep getting device or resource busy.
I have figured it out.

Bootloop after flashing dolby

I was on RR rom. I tried to install Dolby Atmos via twrp. After that phone stuck at bootanimation of RR. Can't find cache partition after that(see attachment). Then again I installed magisk and when I tried to wipe cache and dalvik cache, error occurs, can't find partition path cache(see attachment again). Will try to flash fastboot rom in 3 days. Can anyone solve this issue via twrp only? Thanks in advance.

I tried Dolby on RR rom too. I was unsuccessful but on the bright side it works on stock rom!!!
If you want Dolby to go back to stock and root and flash Dolby.
By the way its ****ING AMAZING!

You will get always the error from cache partition, as this phone don't have a cache partition, so it's normal that you get this error when you wipe cache & dalvik option after flashing something

Thanks for the info. I just clean flashed the rom and everything is working fine now. I came to know that this rom has A/B partition which was causing a problem. Now I got it. Thanks again!
On RR you have to flash Dolby two times and it will be working.
Ok so I had to wipe everything and installed the rom again, then the phone booted up. Any thoughts what made the phone to bootloop? I didn't mess around with anything. Just tried to install dolby.

From AOSP to miui

Hi,
Running latest evolution x rom and want to go back to miui. Simply wiped everything in twrp and installed xiaomi.eu rom - installation was successfully but when It's finish booting and the set-up screen should be there my screen just goes black and set-up screen is coming again and again and again and again. Even tried different miui ROMs. Was running completely fine a week before.
Any suggestions?

Did you leave your password/pin before you changed rom? Try deleting in TWRP and see if it helps.

Sorry but I'm out of ideas then. I usually go back and forth xiaomi.eu and aosp but I haven't encountered this. I usually wipe cache, dalvik, data, and system. I also have to reboot to recovery after wipe before flashing xiaomi.eu to be able to mount the system partition.

Mhm. I will try again this evening. Let's see.

Coming from LOS, I flashed latest EU rom, wiped data and internal storage.
Now I'm looping at the setup screen "Just a sec..."
I removed the pin/pwd in TWRP but it didn't help

Oh sorry I misunderstood, no I just wiped /data.
As soon as I copied the rom on my phone again I'll try that if I'm facing the same issue :good:
I followed this steps to come back to MIUI from LOS:
1. Wiped everything (cache, internal, vendor, system, data)
2.After wiping I did "format data" and said "Yes"
3.Rebooted to recovery TWRP again
4.Mounted my phone on PC and copied rom.zip
5.Flashed the zip and reboot to system
Try this and it should work, for me did! Good luck!

I don't know precisely why, but yeah, it's not the same thing. In fact, I had problems too, but formatting data after total wipe resolved them
formatting data "Yes" is another thing that is important when you flash custom ROM or go back to stock ROM.
After flash the miui, go back wipe -> Factory Data -> Type (yes) -> restart
it will be works
Same here
I flashed fastboot rom to get device work again

Most custom roms dont work for me - Am i doing something wrong?

Hello! Since i got this device, every time i try to install any custom rom, sometimes i have a good luck and one of those works, but other times they dont, i just get an "Android Setup keeps failing" so i cant even do the initial setup. The only roms that worked for me for now are the PE BS and Corvus, i tried LOS, PE, Havoc and almost any other rom and i get this problem, tried roms with and without gapps, different gapps versions and build but i just keep getting this problem.
The way i install a rom its like this:
- Wipe dalvik, data, cache and system
- Format data
- Reboot recovery
- Flash latest fw
- Flash rom
- Reboot Recovery
- Flash magisk
And i just keep getting this issue :c skipping magisk but i just get the same problem. I dont know if someone have or had this problem and know how to solve it.
Thanks in advance!

When you say "flash latest fw" what do you mean? Latest MIUI firmware? If yes why? You wipe everything just to install the firmware again?
It should be:
- Wipe dalvik, data, cache and system
- Format data
- Reboot to recovery (TWRP)
- Flash ROM
-Flash Gapps if wanted and not included in custom ROM
- Flash magisk
- Boot to system

Yeah thats what i mean, and i flash it everytime because those times that i skipped that the rom didnt even booted, so i just assumed that its necessary. But also, tried the way you say it and still got the same result.
I think that i need to flash MIUI by fastboot for something like a "clean flash" because y tried everything even using the zip to skip the encryption but... Nothing, still the same :c

Best should be to follow the instructions by the ROM developer,
for example Arrow OS:
How to install:
Reboot to recovery
Wipe System , Cache, ART Cache and Data
Flash the ROM
Flash any addons (GApps, Magisk...)
Format data if you are encrypted
Reboot
(Formatting data is later here)
Or Bliss ROM:
First Time Install / Clean Flash
0. Flash proper firmware, latest firmware for your device variants.
1. Reboot to Recovery
2. Format data
3. Wipe system
4. Flash the ROM (DO NOT WIPE VENDOR, EVER)
5. Reboot to System
6. Reboot to Recovery
7. Flash Magisk (Optional)
8. Reboot to System

Best may be to ask a ROM developer by PM what could be the problem. I'm still on stock so my knowledge about it is more theoretical.
