Currently I'm on custom rom RR with f2fs data partition and want to switch back to oos for stable VoLTE so how can i boot oos without needing to format data back to ext4???

Hi I was trying to convert the /data and /cache partitions to F2FS but for some reason after doing so using TWRP, then rebooting to the system, and finally rebooting to TWRP again I find that they reverted to EXT4.
The F2FS compatiable kernel I am using is Glitch (306) and the recovery is TWRP 2.8.30. The ROM which theoretically shouldn't affect the process is Screw'd 5.0.2 ROM.
Thanks.

I don't know if it still happens with Lollipop, but with Kitkat, when you flash a rom, you need to be sure to specify the OS inside the updater-script. When you install the rom, the updater-script will tell the system to format into ext4 again. If it is the same thing with Lollipop, I think this is where lies your issue.
Is it possible without loosing content of internal storage? I mean format data is necessary?
Expect problems if you flash the xiaomi.eu ROM over any custom ROM. I would expect issues flashing xiaomi.eu build over stock MIUI, never mind a custom ROM.
I did a factory reset and flashed the dev rom over the custom. Is it ok or the system wipe is necessary too?
I came from MIUI 9 official. I unlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP 3.2.1 vasishath, flashed Magisk and it said: "encrypted data detected, keep forceencryp"t. Then I did full wipes, then I installed AEX rom, gapps, and my device appears as encrypted. If i boot to recovery also is encrypted and asks me toenter pin. Encrypted by default? Is this MIUI, TWRP or AEX feature?
How can I decrypt? I want to decrypt to avoid future problems with dirty flashing and some other things, In addition, encryption slows down the system theoretically.
You need to FORMAT Data (not wipe) to remove encryption, Magisk will then prevent your rom from encrypting again on boot.
If your rom has a survival script for magisk, there is no need to reflash it on updating the rom.
If it doesn't then you will need to reflash it on update to prevent your rom from encrypting it on boot.
Me too....
How do i install xiaomi.eu when coming from an AOSP custom rom?
I was using Paranoid Android Quartz 4 (AOSP) for a good while now but it i want to go to xiaomi.eu because of the better battery management and other features.
I wanna know what's the right procedure to flash the rom. I am going to include the rom and custom kernel plus magisk on top.
Im confused as to which to wipe and/or format. Like which to do first and such before flashing the rom, kernel and magisk.
I'm using OrangeFox recovery because TWRP doesnt work on mine. Phone is ginkgo.
Thanks for the response
Wipe dalvik, cache, system, vendor, data. Flash rom, magisk. Reboot. If you face bootloop (most probably) then format data partition. You'll be okay.

Should i format data partition before flashing rom or should i do it after i face bootloop?
Thanks for replying
Format after flashing ROM. Formatting before flashing will wipe out internal storage.
I've tried to update to a weekly released, MIUI 12 20.12.28 for my K30 5G but it said that TWRP cannot encrypted data even with my personal password and needed a complete data format to be able to use the system. I don't know why and I don't want to set up my phone every time it updates so are there ways to fix it?
Update your recovery: latest TWRP or OFRP supports decryption in all devices except for stock A11 China ROM.
