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

It's not big deal.. Error or warning. Do you have solution for that or not?

Go to twrp.
Go to mount
uncheck box data partition
And try format.

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.

I have the latest TWRP v2.8.7.0.
When I manage to boot into the ROM I've flashed, I will get the pop up as below and all the gapps will be forced close.
There' an internal problem with your device. Contact your manufacturer for details.

I suspect it's due to the below error that occurs every time I try to wipe / flash ROM.
Formatting System using make_ext4fs function.
Wiping data without wiping /data/media...
Done.
Formatting Cache using make_ext4fs function.
Updating partition details...

I get that when I don't flash the vendor.img when updating android versions. I'm not sure why you get that when flashing a custom rom but I would try flashing the vendor.img with fastboot.

What he suggested will delete the lockscreen password/passcode etc so you can boot the phone without any prompts. You do this within TWRP.

oh in that case, should I have to factory reset everytime I flash a rom through my TWRP? I use ZCX TWRP, so Lazy flasher is not required after rom flashing right?
you just need it once . to decrypt your storage

In the information about the ZCX TWRP I found below:
ZCX TWRP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/redm...persu-t3462448
- Based on official TWRP 3.0.2-0
- Patches boot.img automatically (Removes dm-verity flag)
- Disables forced encryption
Should I have to tweak anything in TWRP settings to remove this dm-verify flag everytime?

I tried it. Earlier i did not have any issue even if i install custom rom on my Redmi note 3. But today i thought of trying Pure Nexus *Substratum* rom. And on the first boot it asked me to enter password. though i have never kept password for my mobile, i tried all the passwords that i remember, which didnt solve my issue. then saw ur reply and tried it, and still it didnt work for me. Any other way?:crying:

Are you coming from MIUI? If so then MIUI encrypts the data partition, hence the new ROM asking for a password.
Before you install the ROM, you must "format data" on wipe in TWRP, this is different from wipe data.
Note that this will delete all your data obviously.

Are you sure that you used "format data"?
Wipe data doesn't remove the encryption.

Perfect. Worked bro. Thanks a lot for the help. I was wiping cache,and internal storage. Now only came to know this. :highfive:
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.

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?

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.

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.
