I unlocked my bootloader, flashed TWRP, and pushed Lineage into my phone which installs successfully and boots. From there Lineage tells me that Decryption Failed. From there i go back into TWRP and Formatting fails every time. I tried going into adb shell and entering adb shell recovery --wipe_data --set_filesystem_encryption=off but i still get the same outcome. what do?

I wasn't able to adb sideload from recovery though I could when the phone was on. so i tried clearing cache from stock recovery and it got interrupted. Now when i start the phone, boot loops and i can't even enter recovery. Any help please!
Update
Now I can enter recovery after long charging and I could wipe cache. I can boot normally.
Problem now is that adb devices command can actually detect the phone when it's booted and functioning; but the adb devices command can't detect the device when in fastboot or after entering recovery! Can anyone provide solution to this?

Where are you getting your adb/fastboot toolkit? If using the ones your Linux distro (Debian, Ubuntu, etc) provided, then consider them out of date. I had the same problem with fastboot recognizing my phone...once I downloaded fresh ones from Google's SDK, I was back in business!
Am on windows and i had fastboot_adb(1.0.32) already installed.
Update
I could update by flashing through Kernel Adiutor app (needs root permission & Busybox). Root lost when flashed complete firmware and root remained when flashed just the update file.zip.
what i did was-
I put zip file (completely downloaded firmware from ASUS website-also tried OTA downloaded and updated the phone) on MicroSD card, renamed the file MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip. This flashed through Kernel Adiutor app- recovery- cwm-flash.
Re-reooted the phone with 1 click method (method #3) when flashed the complete rom. If you just flash the update zip root remained.
All working fine for now.
PS: I use Z008 2gb model.
Hi all.
After OTA upgrade to android 6 of unlocked unrooted nexus 7 2013 WiFi i decided to unlock and install twrp.
I used adb and fastboot to flash version 2.8.7.
It went smooth but after reboot to recovery, twrp shell returns "can't mount *" for all partitions. And the device is bootlooping into this state (unless I boot into bootloader).
The worst part is that my pc wont recognise the tablet when connected. Adb devices returns an empty list. So i cant even flash stock recovery or do anything uing adb/fastboot.
HELP!!!!
[solved] falshed factory image manually using fastboot
It seems fastboot recognized the device while adb/pc couldn't.
I downloaded Android 6 factory image from google and flashed-all that.
Just updating in case some other noob who doesn't fully understand adb/fastboot relations.
Hi all,
It seems I come back a n00b every few years.
I rooted my Zenfone 2 to remove some clutter and guess what I did today? I updated. Didn't know that would brick my phone but well here I am.
I followed these steps:
http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2015/06/how-to-update-ota-without-bootloop-on-rooted-zenfone2.html
Only to find that it wouldn't boot.
Went into recovery and tried to factory reset... went on for more than 15 minutes (I didn't want to stop the process....). I then had to hard reset then boot into recovery and tried to wipe cache which yielded nothing...
BTW, I think the failed wipe and reset messed up permissions as fastboot yields an error (even though the "flash recovery" bit seems to work).
I tried installing TWRP and it only boots back into fastboot. Reinstall the recovery from the link above and I can go back into recovery but can't seem to use any of the functions.
Any ideas?
p.s. I did do a few searches. Can't find anything specific about
I also tried using the adb sideload to sideload official firmware but it yields "error: device not found" and then goes back into regular recovery...

Have you installed all your drivers correctly?
In TWRP, have you gone into advanced and selected ADB Sideload? I've also had issues with sideloading, I think it's a TWRP issue though.
Here's what you can try:
Boot into TWRP and make sure the phone is detected on the PC.
open up adb
type: adb devices
hit enter
your device should be listed
type: adb push -p rom.zip /sdcard0/
-for push, it's just the command to push files to your phone. Alternatively, pull is for taking files from your phone (in the event you can't boot up and need a certain file)
-for -p, it just means show progress, so in CMD you'll see a percentage sign which is always a good thing to know
-for rom.zip you type in the location of the file
-for /sdcard0/ you can leave that, as that is the send destination and should land right in your main folder.
And once the file is transferred over, install through TWRP.
Wipe Dalvik/Cache.
Reboot system.
Profit.
If all this doesn't work, try a microsd card with the file on it.
EDIT: I just realized you meant you meant stock recovery. In that case...it should still allow you to adb sideload, but I'm not sure. As long as you can still use ADB, you can follow my instructions above.
adb push yields "error: closed"
adb sideload says it needs adb 1.0.32 to do operation...
Try using microSD, download the latest firmware on asus website, then rename the zip to MOFD_UPDATE.zip and copy it to your microSD then go to recovery mode and it'll install the update. it took sometime be patient

in my experience, it automatically install the zip if i go to recovery
Update: Sideload worked and I've been back to stock since. Didn't want to flash because I was ok with stock but didn't want the clutter. Will find another stable firmware if need be.
Thanks again for the help!
So I thought TWRP was not right for CM so as a dumbass I got a cm-12.1-20160228-NIGHTLY-v500-recovery.img
Wiped the device completely and executed:
dd if=/sdcard/cm.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
Now, all I can do is boot to CM recovery.
Adb is unauthorized so can't push pull or adb shell
Cant load bootloader (just stuck on LG)
LG Mobile Tool won't recognize ****
From CM recovery, the system cant mount anything...
Only Apply Update from ADB, takes adb to sideload mode
Tried to sideload anything, it wont work as system cant mount anything.
Please HELP!!!!
In Windows Device Manager, does it list your device as QHSUSB_BULK? If so, Google that and you should find directions to recover.
Might be in the modern or ports section.
If not, I don't know what else to suggest.
Hello. I recently unlocked the bootloader on my Nokia 6.1 phone and booted a modified TWRP installation, which I used to wipe my phone as recommended here:
https://www.howtogeek.com/348545/how-to-install-lineageos-on-android/ (Step 4)
Now I only have TWRP on partition A and Download Mode.
Question is: How do I transfer LineageOS or any Zip file to /sdcard?
TWRP's ADB Sideload fails after loading for some minutes.
Doing "adb sideload lineage.zip" or "adb push lineage.zip /sdcard" will display "Error: no devices found". I can't make adb work after booting into TWRP, but it also won't work when doing this via fastboot.
I am a bit lost here and would like it if someone could help me install LineageOS on my phone or at least clear this issue.
Once tried in windows 11 I faced same situation,
But in windows 10 worked out well (but I installed Lineage Os recovery)
