Guys, i just flashed Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 (Based on android MM) but i did it cleaning all the device via TWRP, including internal storage (i didnt know that i mustnt wipe that partition too) all is working fine at the moment. Is it a problem that i wiped internal storage partition before flashing RR?

How did you flash RR if you've wiped everything?
Except for, when you didn't wipe sdcard.
Anyway, there's no need to worry if the phone is working.

I flashed it vía sideload
Nope you'll not lose anything related to ROM. Only app data and media files in the internal storage will be lost.
Hello everyone.
I lost 8GB of internal storage after a bad flash. I tried installing a custom ROM but flashing got stuck for a few hours, so I powered off the phone.
After re-downloading the ROM and reinstalling in TWRP, my phone now only shows 24GB of internal storage, even in TWRP.
Wiping the phone (advanced wipe with everything checked, format Data or Factory Reset) didn't solve the problem. Neither did flashing an original Xiaomi fastboot ROM.
Any ideas what else I could try?

8 gb is used by system partition.
Nothing to worry

Same with me.
In a 32 gb model the 8 gb is used for internal partitioning. 3 gb for system files. 1 gb for cust partition (used by miui only which the dev was able to use for treble support) and the remaining 3 to 4 gb is being used by internal scripting and blob files. (The files used to run android in the first place, such as boot partition and other things)
Thank you.
I flashed Lineage 14.1 and my phone now shows 29 GB of internal storage.
Hi, I'm fairly new to XDA, flashing custom roms and rooting, but I'm really desperate right now.
I know many people probably already have had the same issue, but after searching all over the internet i didn't find my exact problem.
I used Nitrogen OS on my Pocofone F1, but after 1 Month of usage I wanted to try MIUI again, an important thing I remember is that i flashed a new kernel,
but I don't know if that makes any difference.
I made a backup of MIUI without any data on it (i made a hard reset before, so nothing would go wrong) and then installed Nitrogen OS the correct way (i wiped dalvik, data, ...) and everything, even installed the decrypter and everything worked fine.
Now I deleted dalvik, data, cache, ... and loaded the Backup of MIUI and as soon as I booted I suddenly got a bootup password, even though i should get nothing at all because it's basically a clean install.
I tried the normal password that i used all the time, but it didn't work, so i decided to get back to twrp.
Now i got a decryption password, that i don't know and the internal memory is 0 bytes large.
I loaded the nitrogen os backup that i also made, but it didn't work.
I read on other forums, that i should format my internal memory and try to flash the disable-force-encryption again, but i don't really know what to do exactly. i know how to format the memory, it's on the bottom when you want to delete data, dalvik, cache,... but still... .
Even if my phone is briked now, can anyone help me? I really don't know what to do

First of all your phone isn't bricked. It's going to be ok.
The bad thing is that you will lose your internal storage.
The procedure to format data is :
(While in twrp) "mount"-> check "data"-> "repair change file system" -> format your data partition.
After that, no password will be asked. Now wipe system davlik cache and data and reboot into recovery again.
If you have sd card installed start flashing. If you don't, you need to plug into a pc and copy what you need inside your internal storage.

Yes. That's the solution. After that your device will get encrypted again on reboot, unless you flash encryption disabler. I would suggest keeping the encryption and not flashing anything more

The error 7 occurs due to outdated vendor/firmware. Download latest firmware and flash it before the rom you want (for example if you want to clean flash a rom: wipe system, davlik, cache, data.. flash firmware.. flash rom [you won't get error 7].. flash gapps.. reboot)

Hey guys,
I already have done hours of research and I have been trying and failing a lot of times. So here´s my problem. I wanted to flash a new Rom , the newest MSM Extended and the newest Pixel experience. I´m on Twrp 3.2.3-2 and on the newest firmware for the Pocophone (V11.0.5.0.PEJMIXM). Everytime I try to flash the ROM it says "Error 7" for Msm extended and "failed to map file" for Pixel Experience. I already tried all versions of Twrp for Poco F1 and I tried a 3.0.1 vesion of another device but the TWRP simply didn´t work. I always had to flash my old msm Rom which is always working. I think it´s because of the Android Q update. But I already have the latest firmware so I really don't know anymore.
Try latest twrp

Does that change anything? It's the internal storage right? I always wipe Data Cache Dalvik Cache and System Data.

When you get from pie to q, you have to format your storage. It's not only wiping your internal, it's a different option in twrp.
Format your storage, reboot into recovery and then it will work.
Mind that you you have to format again and do some other things too if you decide to get back to pie afterwards.

Alright. So I just have to find the option to format my phone? Doesn't that also wipe my internal?The zips for ROM, GApps etc. are there. Is it possible to transfer files while in Recovery? If yes then I can follow. I don't quite understand right now. Sorry for the late reply. I was busy with school.

The button for formatting is next to "advanced" in the wipe menu of twrp.
It will erase everything, yes.
You have to transfer the zips needed from a pc/microsd/usb otg to your storage once it's been formatted while being in twrp.
So I'll have to Advance Wipe>Internal Storage, Dalvik, Cache, Data. Then Magisk will flash easily?
I'm using the POCO X3 right now running MIUI 12.
Hi, I recently unlocked the bootloader of my Redmi Note 9S, and I wanted to install xiaomi.eu. When I was trying to do the necessary wipes in TWRP, I found out that I couldn't wipe the system partition, I mean, the system partition doesn't show in the wipe menu. So everytime I need to install a new ROM I have to perform a format data. Which is botering me because I have a lot of things in the internal storage.
I have already tried another recovery but is the same thing. Can anyone help me?

Formatting data is needed if your previous rom was encrypted (usually Miui and its derivatives). Find a rom you're going to stick with to do the data format just once.
