So umm.. I am kind of new here (posting wise) and my tablet has something wrong with it
My tablet's app disappeared from my app drawer almost as if i did a factory reset but
all my files are still there...
What I did before this happened
Installed MOUNT2SD
Installed Busybox
Went back to MOUNT2SD
enable script
accidentally DISABLED Safe Mode in MOUNT2SD app
Did a normal restart
Then it happened
:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Bro you might have Missed tge Partition Name.
I means the mount2sd script might have Used your other Partion as the Data Memory .
I guess this is not a Problem.
Just install them again.

I'm pretty new to flashing ROMs. My phone is rooted using all in one toolkit, s-off with sunshine. TWRP is my recovery.
I made a backup of my rooted stock ROM , then used TWRP manager to flash cm11. I checked to wipe all the data and dalvik before flashing. Cm installed with no issues.
Once I finished setting it up, I installed es file explorer again and noticed that all my files from my internal storage are still accessible. Its just listed under 0. Everything is still in tact tho.
Did I do something wrong? I don't understand why I still have all these files.

You have to have internal storage checked for it to be wiped
^^^This. The data that was wiped was system data, not your personal data.
Thanks for responding so quick,
I checked all of the options under install on twrp manager. Looking back, it says wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. There wasn't an option for wipe internal storage.
Is there anything I can do to fix this now? Or would I just have to go into twrp and reflash cm from recovery, making sure to check wipe internal storage?
Also, if I leave it as is, is it going to cause any problems?

First off, ditch TWRP Manager, its a needless middle man (you're talking about the TWRP Manager app, right?).
If you boot into TWRP and select Wipe, you will see under "Advanced Wipe" there are a slew of wipe options (but be careful what you pick, as there are options to wipe things like the removable SD).
HOWEVER, you don't need to wipe the internal storage to flash a ROM. Yes, you need to wipe user data (/data) in most cases, and also cache and Dalvik. But wiping internal storage (virtual SD, also called sdcard on ES File Explorer, or sometimes /0) is not needed. For most practical purposes this partition is treated like a removable SD card. In fact, by default, backups like your TWRP nandroid and Titanium Backups are stored here. So if you wipe, you will lose those (unless you move/copy them to the removable SD or somewhere else like your computer).
Some folks like to wipe internal storage when they flash a ROM, just for general cleanup purposes. But its a personal choice, and not really necessary IMO. And as mentioned doing so will wipe your backups unless you save them somewhere else that isn't going to be wiped.
Thank you so much for clearing that up.
Yes, I was talking about twrp manager. You're right, after I checked the options, all it did was reset and boot up twrp. Pretty useless...
So since I still have all my game data stored, can I just copy it over somewhere to retain where I was at? I'm talking about android/obb data.
How would I go about integrated all my previous data into this current software? Let me know it my question made sense or not

I think some folks like to use it to install TWRP. But installing with fastboot is easy, and also important to know how to do if you have issues someday and need to re-install TWRP from a non-booted condition.
So yeah I agree that TWRP Manager is pretty useless.

Use the app Titanium Backup to migrate app data when flashing ROMs (also handy to migrate app data to a new phone). And paying the few dollars for the Pro Key and getting the batch backup/restore functions is well worth it if you are flashing ROMs.
Do not use Titanium to migrate any system data to a new ROM, as this will likely cause problems. Just apps and app data. I've had success migrating SMS with Titanium as well. But other things like Settings and Homescreen setup, I usually just do again manually after flashing a new ROM.
As mentioned in my post above, the default save location for Titanium Backup data is the internal storage. So do not wipe internal storage when flashing a ROM, or you will lose your backup data.
Just copying the game files will most likely not work to migrate your game save data.
Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.
I used titanium backup and extracted my apps and data from my nandroid backup. Worked pretty well.
The only thing I'm having trouble with now is getting my info like contacts and stuff to sync. It says it's synced, but I'm not seeing it.
I wanted to install HTC backup again and try and restore that info. Would that work?

I can't say, as I don't use HTC Backup.
I prefer to just have my contacts on my Google (Gmail) account. This is the default on the phone, so unless you changed it, your contacts should all be on the cloud on Gmail (you can login to Gmail on a computer and confirm your contacts are there). Then will automatically restore to the phone when you first setup and enter your Google login and password.
If you've confirmed your contacts are on Gmail, and still not synching, go to Settings>Accounts & sync>Google, go to where Contacts is checked, uncheck it, and then check it again. Sometimes the sync will just get "stuck" and this will clear it up.
One M8 stuck on GPE 5.0.1 ROM boot animation
I foolishly reset factory data using TWRP under Wipe, and when I try to reinstall the GPE 5.0.1 ROM I couldn't find it. Then I try to restore my backed up Sense ROM and I couldn't find it under Restore. Maybe I deleted it and I forgot about it. Help me? I don't have MicroSD to store the GPE ROM which I thought would solve my problem because I thought I may have deleted the GPE ROM .zip file when I reset factory data. Now I am stuck on GPE ROM bootanimation the moving around dots. I need help please someone?

If you did the "default" TWRP factory reset (data, Dalvik, cache) this is not foolish, and is the correct wipe for moving to a new ROM.
You either bypassed the default, and went to "Advanced" and wiped the internal storage; or there is also the occasional instance where internal storage is corrupted by no fault of your own (more common with oldr TWRP versions?).
adb push a ROM to the internal storage (or adb sideload flash) while in recovery.
okay I kind of fixed my One M8. But one problem remains, I can't use my internal storage. My Camera App can't use the internal storage so does all the other apps such as Whatsapp or downloads from Chrome. It's as if my internal storage is not there or somehow malfunctioned or the ROM doesnt support the use of internal storage. But before I got into this problem (I forgot how I got it in the first place as it happened months ago only now I was able to fix my One M8), it worked perfectly fine, the Storage had no problem. But I had problems with Wifi, I thought maybe reflashing the ROM was a good idea to fix this but it didn't instead I can't access my internal storage by File Manager or by PC. If you have any solution please help me. Thanks in advanced.

Broken WiFi is usually a symptom of wrong (outdated) firmware for the current ROM.
Internal storage may be corrupted. Try to connect to a computer and format it, or you can try RUU.
Or try to re-flash custom recovery, or update or try a different one (if TWRP, try CWM/Philz or vice versa). Some folks fixed similar internal storage issues by flashing recovery.
I need help again.. I decided to format all my data but I kept my backup in the internal storage.. But after rebooting the phone it works but then I can't download apps from the play store or from chrome.. also I can't transfer files from my pc to my one m8.. But I can take photos (which I think uses internal storage).. Also my guest mode is not working.. Ithought something must be wrong with the internal storage so i wiped it out.. When i rebooted everything is black but when I long press the power button 'power off' shows up.. Something must be wrong.. Oh when connecting to my pc it shows CD Drive instead of HTC_OneM8 like it usually would.. Pls reply even when there's no hope to fix this phone at all..
I did some searching around and didn't find anyone as dumb as me.
Anyways, here is the story.
I was attempting to make a new TWRP backup, and I was having some issues deleting the old ones. So I decided to just backup all my files and wipe my internal storage. I was a dumbass and thought, hey since I'm making new backups, lets the delete the old ones. Herp derp.
I did this in TWRP, rebooted back to the system and now the system UI isn't loading among other things. I can launch any app (they are all intact) but my nav/status bar are completely gone and the internal storage won't load on my PC. I am running stock rooted ZV8 de-odexed.
As of right now, I've pulled backups of system/data after the fact, but I really just need to know how the hell do I restore this internal storage partition.
If anyone else comes across this and did this same stupid that I did, it was a permissions error with data/media after the wipe.
Connect to an adb shell and issue
restorecon -FR /data

reboot, and your issues should be fixed.
Hallo,
Mobile: Huawei G8, currently stock ROM Austria RIO-L01C150B130
What works:
Booting Android, Installing apps, change seettings, viewing internal storage with es file explorer
What does not work
Making screenshots, making OTA (error message when trying to download dat), viewing internal storage with Astro
History: Start condition: Phone has run Lollipop, been unlocked, unrooted, TWRP installed. Phone has been encrypted
OTA downloaded Marshmallow update to SD, force closed all apps and rebooted
Mobile stuck in recovery (TWRP). TWRP could not access SD card. -Comment: It seems that the phone needs the stock recovery for OTA
Finally got TWRP accepting the SD card by formatting it with SD formatter tool but could not get anything work.
Wiped storage with TWRP (for clean install)
Flashed boot.img and recovery.img from Marshmallow RIO-L01C432B340CUSTC432D001. (all flashing done with fastboot). Tried to update system via dload folder. Update failed at 5% (right after checking files and starting update). Phone goes in endless boot loop.
Flashed system.img of Marshmallow above. Phone goes in endless boot loop.
Flashed revocery.img and boot.img of Lollipop version above.
Tried dload folder method. Fails immediately.
Flashed Lollipop system.img. Phone boots w/o asking for encryption key.
Wiped Cache with stock recovery.
All .img files where extracted from update.app with HuaweiUpdateExtractor with profile 'unkown (worstenbrood)'.
That's basically where I am. I hope I didn't forget something important.
Could be something easy like missing directories. Could be something tricky like partitioning or access right issues.
After about 16h fiddling around with the phone I can hardly thing clear anymore.
Any hints are highly welcome.
Regards
Chilli
It appears that the phone can't acces SDCard0. SDCard0 and many other directories show up as empty in ES File Explorer. I guess Astro tries to show the data directory or SDCard0 instead of root, which can't be accessed either (--> Astro shows nothing). Connected to PC via USB internal storage shows only two folders: Pictures and system. There is some preloaded content in these directrories, but no changes can be made.
The parition 'data' itself seems to be fine, because apps can be downloaded and updated (folder 'app' is working correctly). So it seems to be some access problem of specific directories of the partition 'data'. Which is pretty strange.
I made a clean install of Marshmallow (that did not work) and a dirty flash of Lollipop.
Edit:
I swiped everything with TWRP exept external SD Card
I installed Lollipop and this time access rights are fine.
It can store screenshots, it can store OTA data.
OTA still fails. No clue why, but I guss that's another story.
Thanks

I'm hoping to get something clarified when it comes to installing ROMs. My phone was working fine for a couple of months since I acquired it, I started getting a bootloop yesterday, and I decided to use TWRP to do a factory reset. Still bootloop. I did another factory reset + wiped out internal storage, and reinstalled the ROM. Checked file manager in TWRP, and saw that internal storage is still empty, with the exception of the TWRP folder, and the ROM zip I transferred back on using my laptop.
I tried booting up anyway, and still have a boot loop.
Is it normal for a successful ROM flash to have an empty internal drive? Are the folders Android, data, DCIM, and the rest all populated on the internal drive upon successful bootup? Or is it something that's supposed to be there right after a successful ROM flash?
I'm having a had time figuring out what I need to do at this point.
