I keep getting a zram dump pop up that can never got before after flashing in twrp. Does anyone else have this issue? It turns into a boot loop when flashing arise sound mod and sometimes after flashing ROMs. It boot loops between the Google splash and the zram dump screen. Man this is annoying Any help would be highly appreciated!
I did a complete clean flash with a factory image wiping everything, and reinstalled twrp. That stopped it for me.
What process did you use when doing the complete factory flash?

And did you flash the 7.1.2 factory image or 7.1.1?

If you bought your pixel from google and NOT from verizon, flash the 7.1.2 factory image, then boot twrp RC1 and flash RC2

I used a computer and used flash all to flash 7.1.2, before I did that I backed up all the stuff I on my phone I didn't want to lose like pics.

Do you have a 32gb or 128gb? I heard if you do this on a 128 gigabyte it messes up the storage

I have the 128GB and never once had an issue. I know with the N6 it happened to it, but I'm not if that happens to our pixels .

Few hours before this post I flashed a rooted version of android 4.3 from the thread by "Carlos_Manuel". However, following that the supersu was not working I flashed the supersu binaries over the ROM from TWRP. Since then, it is stuck in boot loop at the Google Logo. Tried flashing PA, Sourcery, CM but nothing seems to work. What should I do?

Fix it by flashing factory images! do a full wipe, you can get imprtant stuff from your Nexus by using adb pull commands!
Users was blaming me when they screwed their Nexus with the root files!
I can successfully even flash old root files and no bootloops but ofc. root wont work if using those old root files.

Ok, I am paranoid and want to be sure about this. I am in the same boat as the OP. I have a 32gb toro on twrp 2.5. I am under the impression that flashing the stock images will flash my sdcard partition and I want to pull some files if that is the case. Is there anyway to pull the files or am I stuck and need to start fresh.

You cant use the stock images they are for gsm not toro/cdma, have to use a custom zip only one is that light speed one in development right now I am waiting for muzzys but, full wipe, flash rom, gapps, supersu.

If you tried wiping just cache/dalvik after the flash I dont know there may be another way to get it to boot or not but yeah the factory image will start it over fresh and get you out of it

If so, how?
I've heard twrp isn't ready and I can't find a way to full nandroid backup either. Some clarification would be most appreciated!

I would flash to rc1 as the beta versions the back ups were not working correctly.
I've restored backups several times and it seemed to go well but the restored rom was killing the battery, not sure why. The phone stayed warm even when off. I didn't spend enough time to see what was going on. Wiping data or a clean reinstall fixed it.
RC 1 been working for me. It's perfect, you don't even need to install TWRP, you can just boot to it via fastboot, backup, reboot and still completely stock. If people are into that.

I'm running rc1 and I have not been able to preform a backup. It tells me that it cannot create the folder to backup... I tried switching boot slots and still can't back up. Is there something I missed?
In TWRP I can't make a back up it says it can't do it, an error message comes up. Will a back up and restore work in flash fire? I know that's from within the ROM I'm just wondering will that work.

I'm guessing it's because you backed up system and vendor instead of system image and vendor image. Use system image and vendor image instead. I've had the same problem if I used system and vendor. Never any problem if I used the other two instead.

I have full backup of stock rooted and Pure Nexus. Works perfectly fine with RC1.
Hi, I'm having a problem with my N5X, I bought it recently and I recently noticed that the system occupies 18.45GB in stock, now installing pure nexus still appears the same and the computer says I have 10GB of internal storage, but it is The 32gb version ... Has anyone had this problem or know how to solve it?
From now on thank you very much and sorry for my english xD

probably not, but, it just sounds like the partition is oversized. Not sure how to fix it.
So either install factory image from Google (it makes partitions again AFAIK) or wipe everything in recovery and clean install.
Maybe flashing TOT file will help?

Hi Guys, I am sorry if I sound ignorant, I am honestly stuck in limbo here and need some assistance...
I was on Freedom OS 2.1 prior to moving to OB3. Before the move, I backed up fully my Freedom OS 2.1. When I flashed OB3, I didn't realize that I didn't have to do full wipe and could just dirty flash OB3. I now want to restore my nandroid backup, but I am running into a problem where it boot loops and when I boot into recovery I don't get to see the pin code unlock to decrypt the phone, therefore can't see my data partition. I was able to get back my partition and reinstall OB3... Please can someone guide me, how to properly restore my nandroid backup, so my data partition doesn't disappear and Freedom OS 2.1 boots up?
Thank you!

Youll have to wipe the phone completely from stock recovery, flash the full 4.7.4 zip and finally flash twrp Image from fastboot then you'll be able to restore your backup.

Thanks for your assistance! I think I missed something somewhere...
I rebooted to stock recovery (on OB3) and wiped the internal storage. Next I tried flash the 4.7.4 zip via adb sideload and after about 10 min recovery screen returned, but I'm still on OB3 after reboot. Please tell me what am I missing. I am not sure how to flash 4.7.4 zip. I will try now to wipe again internal storage, boot into OB3 and copy the 4.7.4 in windows and try to flash it from stock recovery. I read the link you posted and read from post 19 in OP that's downgrading from OB1/2 and I assume OB3 too -- back to OOS 4.7.x is troublesome and WIFI gets lost. I'm hoping that won't be the case where I am simply trying to do a nadroid restore.
Had no idea this is going to be so difficult...

- Wipe everything from stock recovery
- Reboot to fastboot from stock recovery
- Run command fastboot boot twrp.img, then transfer the 4.7.4 over mtp
- Flash 4.7.4 zip
- Reboot
Then let it boot and you can re root after that. Have faith that you are one of the luxjy ones whose WiFi is unaffected and works .

You're backing up a fresh stock install? Is that correct?
Try flashing JUST the factory image, let it boot, boot into bootloader, fastboot into TWRP 3.2.2-0.IMG (previous version of TWRP), and see if you're still crashing.

Are you using Titanium Backup or a similar 3rd party app to restore data? If you are restoring system data, especially across different versions of Android, that is likely the culprit.
TWRP does not modify any system data except the recovery files, so it should not affect system UI. I updated from Oreo to Pie by flashing the Pie factory image, then installed TWRP & Magisk in the same recovery session, and I have yet to experience any system UI errors. I know that doesn't really help your situation, but your it appears to be limited to your phone/setup.
