[Help Needed] Error 7 twrp - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Last time I tried to clean install a ROM it gave "error 7" and hard bricked my mido. Before anyone suggests that I used wrong ROM zip or had outdated twrp I just wanna say I didn't. I had my zip checked it was for mido and twrp was latest too. I tried to install PE and Dot OS but both have the same error 7. I had the official twrp. I wiped data, system, cache, dalvik, vendor. Then tried to flash the ROM. Did I do something wrong?
Help is sincerely appreciated.

Apollo Vernee Lite TWRP loop

I flashed Lineage OS 14.1 and now the phone is now stuck in TWRP.
I have looked at various forums, tried to use some of the mentioned scripts (using adb and the TWRP terminal), re-flashed the ROM, wiped (Dalvik/ART Cache, System, Cache, Data etc) and still no luck.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix my phone? Any help would be much appreciated.
flash another rom. use Mados.
You are on stock partition layout, are you? If you are coming from madOS, then you first have to flash stock rom.
Otherwise if you are in TWRP update it to TWRP 3.2.1-0 (Download),
put LineageOS 14.1 on your device (Download),
reboot to newest TWRP, wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik/Art-Cache and flash LineageOS with GApps (arm64, 7.1, nano) and if you want root flash newest Magisk too.
Hope that it works.

Decryption Unsuccessful MIUI to HavocOS

Hello guys, I need a little help here, my MIUI version is out of date so I decided to try other ROMs and I picked HavocOS.
I wiped data, cache and dalvik using the latest TWRP and then installed HavocOS and OpenGApps, after a few second after rebooting, it gave me an error "Decryption Unsuccessful".
I tried to first flash the latest firmware for Kenzo and then second flash HavocOS but I got no luck. I also tried to disable passwords on MIUI but didnt work
So, would the only solution with this problem is to reformat the internal storage and change the partition type? Thanks

Format data is only option if u want to move from miui to custom roms. Custom roms cant decrypt it.
Ok, so this is what you have to do:
Go back to TRWP, wipe: data, cache, system (!!!), dalvik, than back to main menu and "wipe", tap "format data" button in the bottom right. A prompt will appear, type "Yes"
Now you can flash Havoc, and anything else you want and it will work.
Make a backup before everything you need from internal storage.

Cannot Flash Rom / Restore - Error 7, Error 1001, Cannot mount System

Hey everybody,
I was on LOS 15.1 for a rather long time and I wanted to try RR, so as usual I backed up my system and tried to flash the RR-rom.
It did not work at all and I got several errors among which error 7 and the unability to mount system partition were the most prominent.
The device got bricked several times but I got it back to life with MiFlashTool, running either MIUI 8.5 or MIUI 9.
The strange thing is that even after flashing the MIUI-img - and basically bringing the device back to its factory firmware - I could not flash a rom.
I tried several recoverys; the latest TWRP, the TWRP linked in the LOS15.1 thread and OrangeFoxRecovery. None of them would work. I wiped all partition, nothing worked. I got different errors shown, most of them were error 7 or not being ablke to mount system, as stated before.
Right now I am back to MIUI and rooted it, which worked from OrangeFox, but I actually would like tzo run a custom rom again.
Any idea what I could do?
Cheers!
Noone who has an idea why it would not work?
I thought that after flashing via Flashtool the phone would be as good as new and all prioir changes would be gone? Wha can I not flash anything via recovery and get erros?
Or are there different versions of Orange Fox Recovery? RR would be treble, so I would need a treble recovery.
Cheers!
Have you tried to format internal storage?
If not backup data in sdcard or pc and format it using recovery.
Are you using trble supported recoveries?
Did you encrypted your data while using Lineage OS?
Hey,
well, yes, I encrypted data but since reinstalling MIUI via Flashtool this is gone. And I thought that this should be enough and reflashing it via MiFlash is like a factory reset? Is there anything I did not consider?
After Flashtool did not do the trick, wiped everything but External memory in TWRP, no kelp either.
I also did the normal wipe (where you dont have to choose which partition), this did not help.
As I said, I am currently on the latest OrangeFox Recovery but I also tried the latest TWRP and the TWRP in the LOS 15.1-Thread, which did not help.
To my knowledge all of the are treble recoverys?
I also tried to restore a vackup of LOS which did not work...
I flashed

When you reply quote, I didn't get notifications for your reply.
Your bootloader is unlocked and you installed Twrp recovery.
Try copying Rom zip to SD card and wipe system, data, cache, dalviks cache, internal storage (exclude sd card off course). Then install it.
It should work
As I said, I did all of this, yet it does not work.
After wiping I tried to flash RR rom...
I get "Patching system image unconditionally...
Then I get E1001: Failed to update system image. (in white)
Updater process ended with: ERROR 7 (in red)
Error installing zip file 'patch...' (in red)
Updating partition details (in white)
Failed to mount '/system' (Invalid Argument) (in red).
As I said, that happens with different recoverys and different roms (treble and non treble)

Are you sure the Rom you installating is for your device because error 7 occured if the rom you are trying install is not for your device.
Yes, of course, it was the correct ROM. Before error 7 I got error 1001 and I guess this was the initial problem.
My guess it that the problem was the decrypted partition which I did not format in twrp in my first go. Every wipe and format afterwards somehow did not help...
Now after having flashed recovery and different roms 10 times and using miflash 10 times it worked and now I am on RR. Don't ask me what eventually did the trick.

Great to know
I hated MIUI because of the bloatware and ads. Have fun using RR. If you want you can use Liquid Remix Pie its a great ROM.
Yes. I also did not like MIUI that much, that's why I was using Lineage before I wanted to try RR: Thanks for the advice for anothe rom.
i fix this issue by format data, not only wipe then restart the recovery and install the ROM, then finally it works !

If I format data, then I have to reboot into the recovery menu to be able to use data again. But this is impossible, because it gets stuck into the bootloop every time I try to reboot. Any other option to fix this error?
EDIT:
I could fix it myself:
1. MIUI latest version; flash with MiFlash.
2. flash TWRP with e.g. YUware
3. flash latest fw_vendor in TWRP
4. full update pixel expierence (NOT incremental) rom flash
5. Partitions/Data/Format
6. Reboot and ready to use

OrangeFox - how to install Lineage OS after wiping everything?

Hello guys,
I have a Redmi 5 Plus. I got it already with OrangeFox 10.0. so I have not so much experience with installing new custom roms.
Unfortunately because I thought I could reset everything I have wiped everything (Dalvik, System, Data, Vendor etc) , so now I can get only into OrangeFox Recovery Mode (I can also access and copy through the pc, but SD cards seem not to work).
So now when I try to install lineage 17.1 it crashes when trying to install. I thought I could flash TWRP 3.4.0.0 but it asks which partition I want to use, but I dont know.
Could someone help me?
I have searched a lot but don`t know what to do or If I have bricked something.
