Hello,
i just unlocked bootloader and installed twrp and it all went fine..
until i wanted to fully wipe my device, i did this via twrp.
after 20Minuts, nothing happend, the bar was still white and gray (not even a little bit blue)
and it kept stuck on ''twrp formatting data using make_ext4fs function''.
i knew this wasn't a good idea, but i decided to turn off my phone,
and now, everytime when i turn it on on the normal way it just redirrects me to TeamWin in a bootloop.
even if i want to go to recovery mode i keep stuck in that bootloop, so there is nothing i can do right now, i only can stick at Fastboot Mode but nothing else,
Is there any way to fix this problem?
Using ASUS ZENFONE 2 551ML
I hope you did a backup of your system before? Otherwise just download the latest full image:
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE551ML/UL-Z00A-WW-2.20.40.174-user.zip
place it on your internal sdcard (via adb push) and then flash it normally with TWRP. Please note that the procedure can take up to 30 minutes, where the formatting is the procedure taking the longest time...

but i cant use twrp on my phone because its stuck in bootloop, or what do you mean? (english not my main language)
please give me some proper step by step instructions, i would really apreciate that!
thanks anyway your awesome!
Man, I misread your post, sorry...I thought you could boot only into twrp
If you still have fastboot, why not flashing twrp 2.8.x.x?
Code:
Fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
Fastboot reboot recovery
Otherwise you could flash stock system with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-brick-soft-hard-bricked-zenfone-2-t3284256
It's a lot to read
wow, that is something really helpfull, there is still hope to revive my phone
i'll let you know how it turnt out xd
thanks alot!!
i fixed recovery mode, so thats already one step further. Oefff @TheSSJ thanks for the help.
But now i get some other problems, when i try to wipe my phone i get the error like ''unable to mount /data'' and ''unable to wipe dalvik''
and all other kinds of these errors, i get the same problem when i was installing rom. isn't there anything or a way to fully wipe all this **** so i can install a fresh rom.
i flashed custom rom and this is error log i get. its all full written down.

Seems you don't have a WW image installed, do you have a CN Software? Then you need another Software of course
what do you mean with ww & cn software?
sorry but im new in this.. but im really interested so can you please explain a little bit?
how can i get this other software! thanks!!!
Where did you buy your Phone? what does the packaging state? WW, CN, TW, etc? These 2 letters must be written in uppercase somewhere, then we will know which software to flash, there is a check where your phone's software is compared to the zip you are trying to flash:
assert failed: getprop ("ro.build.asus.sku") == ''WW''
Which TWRP did you flash?
ohhh yes, i do have CN software Probably, as it is buyed from china.
Where can i find this other type software?
thanks!

There you go: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/ZenFone/ZE551ML/UL-Z00A-CN-2.20.40.159-user.zip
I think flashing will still fail though...but pls try first,maybe it'll work
i tryed it, i get the same error :/
Update: i changed from CN to WW.
Because of this i reflashed to twrp 3.0 and it works properly and now wiping shows no problem anymore.
I also got the WW ota zip but dont know how to install that.
Anyway, i tryed to install xaosp rom (even if my ota is still CN)
And it showed no problems at all!
BUT when i tryed to startup my phone it sticks with the asus logo and wont go any further, not a bootloop, it just sticks at the asus logo.
We are Always getting more and more steps further into fixing my phone, thanks for that @TheSSJ were almost there ?

You could try flashing cm13 first and then xosp:
First wipe data/cache
Then flash cm13
Boot up and hope that it works
Reboot to recovery
Wipe data/cache
Flash xosp and maybe a kernel that fits (FlareM?)
Boot to system again

I recently unlocked my bootloader after waiting for 1440 hours. I am/was currently on MIUI 10.0.1.0 but wanted to install a custom rom like lineage 15.1. I installed Red Wolf TWRP and then tried to install the rom. I went to Advanced Wipe section of the recovery and checked Dalvik, Cache, Data and System but not Vendor and Internal Storage. It wiped those partitions without any error. But after that i tried to install the rom but halfway through install it ended with "Update Process Ended with Error 7" and a line saying "Failed to Mount /system (Invalid Argument)" and changed the system partition size to zero. I had to repair it and flash MIUI back using fastboot.
I did this same process over and over with different recoveries ( RED WOLF, ORANGE WOLF and even official TWRP) and different builds of lineage (rom zip was never corrupted) and even with ressurection remix but still failed and same thing happened again and again. Am I doing something wrong in the process? I didn't flash lazyflasher as I read in multiple threads that it is not necessary if flashing a custom rom. Please guide?
I hope it works for my English.
1- mount > select all > restart recovery
2- full wipe > install rom and gapps > format data

Thanks for replying. You said full wipe. Should I include vendor as well or just regular (Dalvik, Cache, Data and System)?

I again tried the process as follows:
Flashed MIUI 9.6.4.0 with MiFlash using clean and lock option.
Then I unlocked it again using miunlock.
Then I flashed RedWolf v28 beta recovery by booting it and flashing it from inside recovery.
This time I flashed lazyflasher and checked options disable dm-verity and force encrypt in recovery and installed magisk. It did it perfectly.
Then I went to Advanced Wipe Section of Wipe tab and checked all the option required like cache, dalvik, data, system and even vendor. It wiped it without any problems like always.
But here the same problem starts to arise: when I again tried to install lineage 15.1 (downloaded latest build this time too) it starts but after halfway through it says Updater process ended with Error 7
Cannot install sdcard/lineage-build date and version
and Unable to mount /system (invalid argument)
When i restart recovery system partition size changes to zero and I have to repair it by changing the file system option.
Currently now I'm on MIUI 9.6.4.0 with RedWolf recovery (options disable dm-verity and force encrypt are enabled) and lazyflasher and Magisk installed. I can use my phone when I flash MIUI 9 or 10 using but it not letting me to install any custom rom. I'm really frustrated.

When you get the mount error, come to the home page and get to the mount. speak enable all options enable all options. speak restart recovery restart recovery. make format data
Not sure if the link is forbidden? I can't tell you sorry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzrWkjOfndA&t=501s
I have read replies and everyone is sharing his bit of suggestions, here are mine
1. boot redwolf as FASTBOOT BOOT recovery.img - (if you arent already)
2. change file type of /data partition to-from (xFat to ext4) and wipe all partitions (internal storage can be skipped)
3. instead of linage15.1 same package, try downloading some other custom rom, i recomend DotOS2.5 or Crdroid4.6.2
4. uncheck enforce md5 bla bla while flashing zip.
i hope you will succeed

Then I suggest to search Google for the combination firmware for your device. Remove frp lock then flash stock firmware.
Not root my device
I'm facing some permissions problems and thus being unable to install Paranoid Android Q5. I was using MIUI 12 (Xiaomi.EU).
The steps I took to change the ROM:
Formated data (errors started right away) then I did the usual wipes (cache, dalvik, data)
Whenever I try to wipe or format data I get error messages like: Error opening /data/XXX (Operation not permitted).
System is always mounted read-only no matter what I try and after I install any ROM many of these error messages pop up.
Orange Fox gives some error about key.
Flashing of the ROM suceeds, but system cannot boot, loading screen forever.
Can anyone point me some directions?
Thanks in advance and sorry about any possible bad grammar.

Any update on this?
I still had those problems. I don't know if it is a problem with the TWRP or something similar. Is there any progress to solve this problem? I wanted to try the pixel experience betas with Android 11 but because of this problem with the TWRP I have not succeeded (in case I have Android 10 under MIUI 12.0.3 and RN8 Ginkgo model and obviously unlocked bootloader)

Format data ..(backup first if u need ) .. the boot to recovery again ... Should decrypt the data ... Worked for me ...
I am having this exact problem.
Under internal storage (sdcard) I see a bunch of hashed folders I cannot open.
Format data returns a multitude of "Error opening '/data/somefolder/asdf/asdf' (Operation not permitted) and marks the wipe as Failed. The attempted formatting also mentions "E:Error making /sdcard/Fox directory: Required key not available." "Failed to unmount '/data' (Device or resource busy)
I can wipe anything except Data. I also tried downgrading to 12.0.1 firmware but it does not fix it for me.
The ROM can be booted into, and magisk managed to be installed, but no google apps were installed.

Recovery download link on description. Only for Note 8/8T.
I flashed it with fastboot and works fine!
A problem like this was the one I had since TWRP had the device encrypted but it did not inform me and it did not give me any sign that I had to write a password (password that I have no idea what it is).
What I did so that it did not give me an error was to install Orangefox and while there delete everything and install a file of these that I got from google.
I had to try one by one and restart to see if it asked me for a password in orangefox, luckily one worked and it no longer asked me to decrypt the files and I could install the rom and gapps normally

Had the same issue.
1. I installed twrp via ADB
2. Restarted to recovery mode into twrp
3. Installed the latest OrangeFox and restarted into recovery again.
4. It asked me for a password which is the pin I set then proceeded to format data.
5. After formatting data I restarted again to recovery.
Then I was able to install custom roms.
I am using derpfest Android 12 on my Poco x3 pro. I want to install magisk.zip through orange fox recovery installed on my phone. But I am not getting storage data on recovery, only a fox folder is there. Can somebody tell me is it a glitch or any Android 12 restrictions or something.
Hi, so I tried to unlock my bootloader and flash twrp, I successfully done those things but after I try to flash a custom rom I had this issue where It keeps giving me this message everytime I try to flash a rom or delete the cache
Failed to mount /cache no such device
I tried to go to mount cache but I can't select cache
I also even try using both twrp and orange fox and they have the same problem.
Now I'm stuck in the recovery and can't even flash a rom because it keeps failing. Can somebody please help me.
