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

Have you formatted your storage?

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.

Hey guys,
I have been having problems with some CyanogenMod roms lately. My I9300 was working perfectly using one of the nightly CM 11 ROM's released in early March, until I installed the latest M Snapshot. From there on in my phone has gone insane.
From time to time, during the day the phone gets blocked without any apparent reason. My first thought was that has something to do with the RAM, maybe its getting low somehow, but no, that wasn't the case. Most of the time I have at least 160-180 free ram, usually more than that.
Anyway, then I thought maybe the problem was the installed ROM, so I did a re-install but still,with no effect. Then I downloaded 17th of march nightly ROM, wiped clean the cache and reset the phone. Still with no effect.
My next solution is: Download the newest nightly, currently 18th of March, install the latest Clockworkmod Recovery, which is 6.0.4.6., reset and wipe the phone again (backing of course) and install the latest ROM. What do you guys think?
Also, does anyone else has this problem after installing the latest M-Snapshot from the CM download page.
I would much appreciate your help. Thanks a lot.

Yes. You definitely should install the latest CWM. And when you wipe, make sure that you (from the CWM menu ofc):
wipe data/factory reset
mounts and storage -> fromat system
mounts and storage -> format /data and /data/media (/sdcard)
advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
then flash the rom etc
If you didn't do this in the first place when you tried flashing the ROMs the flashes were dirty and that may be the reason why they didn't work.
Doing the above will give you a real fresh start with your ROM and problems should not appear.
So, I don't think the problem is in any of the ROMs you tried.. I'm just guessing, so correct me if you did all the above
I have been doing just fine with CM 11 M3 and M4 builds and now I'm on the latest nightly and everything is working perfectly! :highfive:
Hey Man,
I did that, but now the problem is that I cannot install the rom because it has wiped all the data that were there. Now I cannot transfer the rom into the phone. I transfered it into the external sd card but it does not let me to install it, it shows an error.
What to do now???

You should always put roms on ext sd card before you are ready to flash not internal for situations like this! Flash back to stock with odin and start again.
Connect the phone via USB cable, go to recovery, Mounts and Storage, and then click Mount USB Storage. Then, transfer the ROM. Have you thought about having the Cm instaler?

Sorry I think my reply might have confused you..I was suggesting that he should have transferred his rom to ext sd card before he started to flash and wipe system..It looks like he wiped the system in recovery and could not transfer rom to internal sd so he managed to transfer the rom to external sd where it would not let him install please correct me if I am wrong ..
I know there are other options he can try but in this situation I recommend flash to stock to give him a clean system and minimize any errors he might have and then he can try again the correct way.

That was the exact situation I was in. I tried mounting the ext/sdcard and transferred the rom to it, but it didn't let me to install it, it said installation failed.

Then in TWRP-->WiPE-->Formatedata Then rebbot system.

Should I even format internal storage or only data?

Did you format to F2FS? It's not widely supported. Use EXT4. No need to reboot.

I had the same problem, fixed by doing a clean MIUI (or any other ROM) install and installing TWRP, just after the ROM, without reboot.
You may try http://en.miui.com/thread-344450-1-1.html
This will install patched TWRP I got many errors with this. So the first method is preferred.
Hello, I gave my "old" mido to my mother running havoc os. Everything is running fine, but the call quality is really bad. I would like to switch from havoc to xiaomi.eu.
Is there anything special to consider, or just wipe system , data, cache and dalvik and install zip from Internal storage? Thx for helping me.

Clear the internal with f2fs and wipe the data via TWRP. Wipe completely all partitions including system, cache, data, dalvik, vendor, firmware etc and flash the ROM. Do not flash Magisk or any other root solution and everything should be fine.

Flash Oreo rom (max R30), to convert your data partition into the old one.
After that, just flash any rom you want
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.

System
Vendor
Firmware
Cust
Persist
USB-OTG
Micro SD card
I use twrp on the version 3.3.0-0
when i go to "wipe" -> "format Data" it says that it will also remove the encryption should i do that?

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)

hello,
As I face some issues with my rom thought to do a fresh start by resetting the data partition via orange fox recovery which bases on twrp and try to flash another rom. but once I wiped the data partition recovery could not decrypt the internal storage data on the next boot. honestly, this issue happens to me several times, and thus thought to start a thread for some helping hands for this issue. if anybody faces this please let me know the solution. thanks
somehow I got the data partition decrypted by re-flashing the same rom

You didn't get it decrypted. It's still encrypted but since you flashed the same rom that was there, the encrypted data partition is readable again. If you try to install a different rom you must FORMAT data partition to decrypt it. Wiping is different from formatting.
Sent from my curtana using XDA Labs
Well Me too faced this with "Curtana"
I forced to use SD card to copy the rom to phone and install it.
( I will test today Pixel experience Recovery to make sure )
Recovery tested:
-Pitch black recovery project
-twrp by mauronofrio
You could have sideloaded the ROM from your computer. No need to use separate SD card for ROM installation and it's also faster.
