TWRP official "failed to mount data" - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

This is started when I try to flash the latest build of NOS Oreo. I flashed the ROM (with gapps of course) flawlessly, but when the reboot finished, it tells me to enter pin for start the Android. So, I go back to TWRP and then I try to format data, but it says "can't mount data", "can't create data directory", or something like that. Then, I try to reboot system and it seems that my phone gone bootloop.

so , i cant root but i badly want to inatall cm13 on my device can i do that by using sideload without rooting as bootloader is opened.... will it affect my device if i try doing that.... please people help...:crying::crying::crying:
You need to erase the internal storage to have it decrypted. After installation of indian ROM, the phone's internal storage becomes encrypted. In order to decrypt it back, make sure you save everything from your phone inside a computer, then in TWRP, erase/format the internal storage, copy the new ROM that you want to flash via TWRP (you won't have any system installed so you can't reboot otherwise you'll endup in some bootloop). You can Enable MTP to see the device in computer. After you have copied the new ROM, flash it and enjoy. This is my experience on X820 after flashing indian ROM, so I'm not very sure if all described above will work on X821 but you can give it a try. If you brick your device, there is a fix for hard brick as well, so, no worries.
problem decrypting..
I tried it by doing format system.. but it didn't got decrypted... N everything remained same...

In TWRP you need to press "Wipe", then "Advanced Wipe" and select "Inernal Storage", then swipe to wipe. Do note that everything on your phone will be erased, contacts, photos, music, etc. Wiping only system won't decrypt anything.
not working..

i booted into twrp then selected wipe->advanse wipe-> internal storage and then swiped to wipe,..
then it showed wipe failed unable to mount something...
Try to check in Mount and see if you can change something that can help.
Also someone with X821 maybe can help in this matter.
i tried that didn't help..

If u got into bootloop with a blue dot and phone restarting again and again, simply go into twrp and flash any of the official eui 15s 16s 19s Roms by wipe and install zip.

Stuck with recovery and no ROM (OS) - MiPad 1

Hi,
I was installing the lIneage OS 14.1 Mocha and I came across a strange problem. The TWRP and TWRP img installed well, but when I wiped Cache and system and tried to install the Lineage os 14.1 rom, it failed and I was left with a MiPad without an OS. I guess it failed because I did not partition the system before I installed the Rom.
The tablet is turned off and I am not sure hot to get to the recovery of what to do to install a ROM. Could someone please help me with what to do next
Hold Vol up + power button till you see the Mi screen to get to recovery. Go to http://en.miui.com/download-229.html and download Xiaomi's official stock ROM.

Sorry, I've no clue what the issue is. I noticed that the ROM seems to be on the external SD, maybe try putting it on the internal might fix it? Or maybe or can try to flash mocha_repartition_stock, wipe, and then flash the stock ROM?

the problem is i am unable to flash any file as it gives 'unable to mount /system' error. The system partition shows 0 size. Should i first repair it?

Maybe you can try flashing/re-flashing the partition scripts? Or try flashing http://en.miui.com/thread-328108-1-1.html instead, it's a slightly more up to date version of the ROM.

Have you tried wiping everything?
Which rom are you trying to flash? (by whom, I mean)
Did you confirm re-partitioning was successful?

Thanks it worked. The file i downloaded from the miui forum seems to be the problem. I flashed your zip and it succeeded and then i flashed the stock rom and everything worked. Really thanks. Plus the partitions are now merged Thanks again.

Hi,
I'm struck on MI logo. I'm on TWRP 3.1.1-0. I've installed miui_MIPADGlobal_V7.3.1.0.KXFMIDD_0d8dcf2bc3_4.4.zip, AOSPExt ROM, AICP, RR ROM but every time it struck on MI logo. All the ROMs are flashed smoothly without any error. I waited for some 30 min but nothing happened. I tried flashing via MIflashtool using flashboot rom but in MIFlash tool it showed 'error: Mismatching image and device'.
Please guide me.

Did you flash stock miui_MIPADGlobal_V7.3.1.0.KXFMIDD_0d8dcf2bc3_4.4.zip using TWRP 2.8.4?
11. Your Mi Pad now boots into TWRP 2.8.4
12. In TWRP select ‘Wipe’ and choose ‘Cache, Data, System and Dalvik Cache’
13. After wiping, press ‘Install’ and flash the ‘Repartition_MI_Pad_1_2GB_zardMi3.zip’
14. Your Mi Pad boots back into TWRP as no OS is installed
15. Install miui_MIPADGlobal_V7.3.1.0.KXFMIDD_0d8dcf2bc3_4.4.z ip (there will be an error, just ignore it and let it finish). Reboot. Wait 5-10 minutes. The MIUI welcome screen will appear, complete the setup.
16. Install DiskInfo from Play Store to confirm your repartitioning was successful.

'Format Data' in TWRP not working

I officially unlocked the Bootloader. Using 3GB variant. On latest MIUI stable Rom. Installed TWRP latest version.
System read only option is unchecked.
Whenever I tried to perform Format Data -> Yes, i got error, "you need to reboot recovery to use /data again".. I tried to reboot to recovery and perform the same but again same error. I tried with other recoveries to, But all failed. I tried so many times, only failure..
Please someone give me solution to perform Format Data without any error/warning.
This is a warning, not an error

I'm saying there's nothing to be fixed. After you get this message, reboot recovery and proceed with flashing ROM or whatever your goal is.

Errors after flashing TWRP

Hello
After flashing TWRP (twrp-umi-3.4.0-2.img - Team Win Recovery Project) with and without Formatting Data, which anyways triggers some errors (see picture), clicking on Install I am shown /sdcard folder, and when I go up one level I see a bunch of folders but not Internal Storage. So I am unable to use TWRP.
I had identical results using twrp_umi.img also.
USB OTG is not working.
Please help. I have no idea what to do next.

Thanks for your suggestion, but the closest I can get is TWRP-3.4.1B-0218. Where did you find the twrp 3.4.1b-0313 version? And did you format data or not?

Sorry to disturb you again, but I read contrasting procedures on how to flash a ROM, on MI 10.
Some say:
- flash TWRP
- format data
- flash ROM.
Others say:
- flash TWRP
- flash ROM
- format data.
Some more:
- flash TWRP
- wipe dalvik and cache (no need to format data anymore)
- flash ROM.
What did you do exactly?
BTW do you know the TWRP psw?
Many thanks for your support.

it will take a litle time
I tried many version of wzsx150’s TWRP, the latest being 3.4.1b-0313, but the result is always the same (whether fastboot flash recovery twrp_umi.img or fastboot boot twrp_umi.img).
If I format data there are errors (first picture). If I go directly to install (with or without wipe dalvik and cache) I am anyway unable to see the folders of Internal Storage (second picture). So the TWRP is useless and I am stack with a China ROM device, which is not my first desire.
BTW password is incorrect (third picture), though I doubt it has something to do with the shortcomings.
Please I need a thoughtful help.:crying:
Here the forgotten pictures.
the passwd for decryption
is the one u hade to unlock ur phone before u try flashing it
Whether I use the psw for decrypting (Mount/Decrypt Data) or right at the start, it is always refused. I don’t know if this is the reason why in Install the /sdcard folder has only 0 and TWRP subfolders, or not. In any case there is no way I can flash a thing.

I don't understand what you mean. Anyway I did the bare basic of setting on the stock China ROM. No fingerprint, no PIN, no Pattern, no Password or any other lock. In Developer options USB debugging is ON.

After I reinstalled Stock ROM with MiFlash, and flashed TWRP, the psw disappeared completely and was able to flash EU ROM V12, But now I am stuck in TWRP. No way to get out of it.
And if I try to wipe I get the error: failed to mount '/data' (see pciture).
