Im using Moto E 1st generation, Bootloader unlocked with TWRP custom recovery. I was using custom rom Marshmallow by Temasek and I thought to change the rom. Recently, I upgraded TWRP to 3.0.2-0.
I have wiped system, dalvik, internal storage, cache and data everything went smoothly.
when i tried to install Rom zip i encounter and error that causing boot loop.
HTML:
mount: failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name system at /system: invalid argument
unmount of /system failed : no such volume
Patching system image unconditionally ...
flashing Supersu..
scripting succeed result was []
update partition details
...done
when i reboot, my phone goes in boot loop.
i tried with repair or change file system but still the error is same
my file system and format
/system ext4
/Data ext4
/cache ext4
Please Help to recover my mobile thank you...
flash the stock firmware, some times it fix this issues.
flash the stock firmware without flashing the recovery partition, and flash again twrp to avoid any issue, then flash temasek

Hi, i have installed a custom rom with CWM, the installation script converted system, data and cache partition to EXT4, now i want to return to stock with CWM backup but when i try the procedure e receive an error after restoring system, i think it's because EXT4 partition aren't supported by stock, how can i convert EXT4 to EXT3?
Thanks.

Open the zip of the backup you're trying to restore with a file manager. Each partition should be in there and have either an EXT3 or EXT4 filename. The recovery will automatically format the partitions based on how the backup was saved. So if /System is saved with an EXT3 extension, the recovery will format it for you. If you are getting an error then it might be a bad backup.
Also, try using fastboot to wipe everything instead of CWM. I though romracer told me fastboot always formats to EXT3, but I couldn't find the specific post/message. Won't hurt to try
I take error while restoring \system with cwm, this is the log details:
solibPhotoEditor.solibmtpstack.solibGLESv1_CM.solibmot_btpan_jni.solibnvmm_service.soliba2dp.solibWifiAPHardware.solibvpnclient_jni.sotar: write error: No space left on device
solibreverbwrapper.solibbundlewrapper.solibvisualizer.soError while restoring /system!
result was NULL, message is: assert failed: restore_rom("/sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/Firmware_Tim_2.3.4", "boot", "system", "data", "cache", "sd-ext")
Not sure if this has been answered, but I have been searching and cannot find an answer.
I'm S-Off with Dirty Racun, have been flashing Roms for the past year, no problems, backing up and restoring Roms with no problem. Recently was using the latest Hatka LTE but wanted to restore to an earlier version. Didn't work. Did a super wipe and tried to install clean. Didn't work.
Have been messing with this all day and am stuck. At first it was saying that it could not mount the /sdcard. I thought maybe the internal sdcard was corrupt, so I formatted the internal sdcard. Didn't help.
Anyways, yes, I can get into bootloader and I can get into TWRP.
Yes, I have tried other versions of TWRP. All my backups were created under 2.4.1, have tried 2.4.4 and 2.5 to restore, no success.
In TWRP 2.4.1:
It will say:
Restoring 4 partitions...
Wiping System...
Formatting System using mke2fs...
Done.
Restoring system...
E:Unable to extract tar archive '/sdcard2/TWRP/BACKUPS/HT2324......
Wiping Cache..
Formatting Cache using mke2fs...
Done.
Restoring cache...
[cache done]
Restoring boot...
[boot done]
Updating partition details....
E:Unable to unmount '/system'
Also, not sure if this is related, but when I do Factory Reset under the Wipe section, it will only show that it is formatting cache, formatting data, and wiping .android_secure. It used to say formatting system, but now doesn't mention it?
Also, immediately after it says unable to mount /system, if I try to wipe system, it will give me a fail, unable to unmount /system
Basically, I'm stuck at TWRP and bootloader.
Also, when I try to install a ROM, any ROM, it will die - for example MeanBean 3.09, it will say:
Formatting and Mounting Partition...
Clearing cache and dalvik...
Installing /system....
Installing /data...
symlink: some symlinks failed
E: Error in /sdcard2/MeanBean-v309-jewel-ltevo.zip (Status 7)
Please help! What can I do to restore it back to the way it was so that I can at least get a working ROM on my phone?
Thanks!
Also, if it will help, I am HBoot 1.19.22222
Radio 1.12.11.1210
OpenDSP-v31.1.0.45.0815
Thanks for any help in advance!! Really need this phone to boot into something working.

sorry for the replies to myself, but as an update, now even after rebooting into recovery, I can't even wipe - the first thing that happens after I reboot into recovery is I see
E: Unable to mount '/sdcard'
E:Unable to recreate android secure folder.
E:Unable to mount '/sdcard', which repeats itself a couple of times
then Running boot script...
Finished running boot script...
This happens before I press a single button in recovery (TWRP 2.4.1), I mean it happens immediately as it is booting into recovery

I had the same issue and ended up using three different versions of TWRP, but if you go to the TWRP thread, captain just posted his version of recovery that he built from source and he fixed some of the issues with the android secure and changed some of the wipes, check it out and reformat using rm rf, works better for me it's in the advanced options...

So, i;ve repartitioned my phone, and tried to install cm11...all good...., ..but with cm12.1 it seems it have a problem.
I tried, reflash/full wipe/format system , data ( preload i cant format ..it gives me this error )
formatting /preload....
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p12
Error formatting /preload
When im installing cm12..at the end i get this error : warning: no file_contexts detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 ..but at the end it says that the script was succesfully installed
I thinks ..i get bootloop because of the repartition...how do i fix this ? ..can someone help me ?
The error indicates, that /preload partition is not having a proper ext4 filesystem. This is strange, as imo CM doesn't need this partition.
Try to flash a different recovery like TWRP (Link in CM12.1 Thread) and format /preload in there.
Afterwards I would wipe /system and /data and then flash CM12.1.
disclaimer: formatting /data or sdcard0 will result in loosing all your data, so backup your data before doing so.

Did you format /system /data and sdcard0 after re partitioning? Don't forget to flash a ROM or Kernel after formatting /system, because formatting deletes your recovery.

well..i did ...sdcard0 trough windows i think... is it because of that?..i thinks its fat32
Sorry, pls read my edited post. That may be more helpful.
But I would not suggest formatting sdcard0 through windows. I would suggest formatting it inside the recovery with vfat (fat32).
But that shouldn't be the cause of this problem.
well, i did format it with twrp ..doesnt show me any error..but i still get a bootloop
Okay, so the first problem is solved.
I then would suggest wiping /system /data /cache out of TWRP and then flash CM12.1 again.
diclaimer: wiping /data will delete your App data
welll..i did...still doesnt work..bootloop/.
Booting up CM12.1 for the first time may take some minutes. Are you sure you got a bootloop`?
i waited 10 minutes...
Did you try again, wiping all above mentioned and reflashing CM12.1?
disclaimer: formatting /data or sdcard0 will result in loosing all your data, so backup your data before doing so.
ill try it right now
same thing

Use this guide for repartition by @gsstudios , and format your partitions correctly (ext4 cache, data, sys & vfat/fat32 sdcard0 your internal storage) . worked for me 1 gb system, 3 gb data!

Did you try formatting again like ultravy suggested?
yes
i have used the modified preload pit files I9100_6GB data - 45mb preload.pit
still bootloop
detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/mmcblk0p9
detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
Patginking system image unconditionally...
Script succeeded: result was [0.20000]
How big is your /system partition with that PIT?
Else I don't know what's wrong here.
8gb system
Are you sure? Because that would lead to like 2-3GB left on sdcard0, when /system is 8 and /data 6. Stck /system is 512MB and suggested when repitting is 1GB or 1.5GB.
its working now..please close this topic
Thank you !
Booting into TWRP give me an error "Unable to unmount /system, partition or resource busy" and subsequently, i can't flash any GSIs to the system partition, i get the error "Unable to install images to file systems". It is possible to boot into fastboot and flash however.
This seems to be an issue regarding to TWRP mounting /system, iv'e read up a bit on it, and it seems that a data wipe in TWRP should fix it?

Im on TWRP 3.2.1 for the H9
Hi all.
I'm trying to make a last backup of the stock Android of my Swift 2x before flashing LineageOS. But TWRP (version 3.3.0-0) Seems unable to use the /data partition. I got various messages like:
Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid Argument)
I tried to format the partition: Wipe -> advanced wipe -> repair or change filesystem -> change filesystem -> ext4 but it didn't change anything.
What's wrong? What can I do?
Thanks a lot for any hint.
bumping this thread as I also ran into this issue.
When using TWRP, the data and system partitions can't be mounted. they also show up as being 0mb in size.
Because of this, no backups can be made and a full system wipe also yields errors.
What I did was change the filesystem to ext2 and then change it back again to ext4.
Doing this at least allowed me to flash crdroid, but making backups still doesn't work.
Whenever i go into TWRP again, it's the same thing again: unable to mount and partitions show up as 0 mb in size.
Anyone know what's causing this?
Wileyfox encrypts there data when you factory reset your device or after youve rooted your device .To get around this you need to do a factory reset using stock recovery once thats done then turn off the device. Then using minimum adb and fastboot type (fastboot boot twrp.img) that will boot your already installed twrp now erase data internal storage etc you'll notice you can finally delete stock os youll see internal storage is showing mbs available again etc worked for me perfectly.
