Problem restoring backup with TWRP - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've installed fulmics rom 5.0 with a clean instalation and I wanted to restore my previous rom with twrp but when I tried to restore the partition system twrp said it was mounted in read mode and failed restoring partition system.
Have anyone any idea of what to do for restoring partition system?
All the other partitions works well but I can't restore the partion system.
System version: 6.0
TWRP Version: 3.0.0.0
Model: LG G3 D855
Thanks.

Solved, I've changed permisions of /system to r/w and when I flashed the backup it worked.

How did you change the permissions?

Restoring with TWRP help

How would you restore the internal storage from a twrp backup? Basically, I was on teamspr and was going to try out Renegade and read to be on PB6 firmware. Before flashing pb6 I made a twrp backup so i could restore personal data/app data. I restored the data partition but couldnt find my old files in my download folder so restored system partition and then it was back to teamspr but still no download files so before i create more work for myself which partition is it.

TWRP failed to mount /system (invalid argument)

I've recently updated my htc 10 to Android 7.0 using the 2.38.617.6 firmware and added twrp to use for backup purposes. I have attempted to root the device with chainfire's supersu, but failed due to data being in the wrong format.
First off, I managed to find out the the system partition is ridiculously large (17,592,186,044,365 MB) leading me to believe that the system partition has been corrupted.
I've checked the format type for each partition (data, system and cache) they check out to be ext4.
As the title of the post states, I've also ran into that problem before the system partition size issue.
Also, when trying to reboot the system through twrp, I get the message, "No OS Installed! Are you sure you..." but the phone boots up just fine.
Any help is appreciated.
ensure you flashed the latest unoffical twrp from the xda twrp thread. not the official one.

I have fixed the issue. I had to find and flash the latest ruu because I had restore the /data partition from when I had the phone rooted and downloaded xposed. I ran through the same process after the flash without restoring the data partition and now it work.
Only downside is that I can't restore my data until xposed has a compatible framework. Thanks for replying.
I got a clean backup of the twrp formatted the sd card with external memory I mounted the backup in the external sd and restored the system .... With that I was successful:dedos cruzados::dedos cruzados:

Can't restore TWRP /data backup

Hi,
Hope you guys can help me getting my data back.
I messed around with Substratum in legacy mode on OOS 4.1.0 and ended up with a bootloop (I never saw the boot animation restart, just looping endlessly). To fix, I tried the following things:
Flashed the SubstratumRecovery_legacy.zip in TWRP 3.1.0-0 without any effect.
Dirty-flashed OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_047_all_1703132116_f7372e67 without any effect.
Flashed OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_047_all_1703132116_f7372e67 through ADB sideload without any effect.
Wiped data partition in recovery. System started normally, all data gone (obviously).
Before wiping, I had made a backup of my /data partition (through TWRP backup tool for Mac) and saved the content of /sdcard on the computer as well.
Now when I try to restore the /data backup through the same tool, I get an error:
E:Unable to find file system (first period).
E:Unable to find file system (first period).
E:Unknown restore method for '/data'
ADB Restore failed.
So what can I do to restore my data partition? That's all I care about.
Thanks in advance
Mount data in twrp?..
ASFAIK, /data is mounted rw automatically by TWRP. It also doesn't make a difference.
Moreover, I also cannot restore my boot partition (kernel), same error.
A while ago I changed my filesystem to f2fs. Can that be the culprit?
Nevermind, I've given up and accepted the loss of data. However, it would still be interesting to find out what the problem was
I had the same problem, tried several times. Then I went back and turned of the md5 check and it worked perfect.
Do u still have ur trwp backup or did u delete it

I still have it on the computer and wouldn't mind making use of it (installed official Resurrection Remix after the data loss but that just wiped my /data partition after backing up kernel in TWRP)
@Bradl79: sounds interesting, will give that a go later when I have some time.
