TWRP crashing on startup with blue led and buzzing - Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers

Well, I accidentally formatted my phone a few days ago, connected to pc and flashed los 14.1 and gapps.
Now it turns out whenever I hold down the power and volume buttons it takes me to the TWRP teamwin project screen, then freezes with a blue led and a buzzing noise without taking me to the installation screen
Any help/suggestions on what I should do as I still want to download a oreo custom rom later?
Thanks,
B50Corei5

I had that problem, fixed it by flashing the stock kernel (boot.IMG) through fastboot.

I had that problem, also reflashed full stock ROM via fastboot (systemchunk + boot + recovery + cache + userdata even preload in a second time)
Now I can't flash cust recovery, but I can boot in it.
I can flash, via recovery, a custom ROM but can't boot in it.
Any idea?

Same problem

Take complete backup of your internal storage using file manager present in recovery mode. "Format data" or change" format system partition" of data partition. try couple of times to format if first time format not working.

Isn't there any other method by changing recovery? By flashing it again
Pls tell some other method

For internal storage backup:
Recovery - File manager method did not work?
Change system partition format of data partition to some other format and revert it to original. It works perfectly.

nothing is happening

I formatted data partition by using wipe->format data. U need to type "yes" to confirm, because entire internal sdcard will be deleted. So make sure u have rom and other zip files saved on external sdcard.
Then i used advanced wipe->repair/change filesystem and changed it to ext4 and then back to f2fs.
2nd time i installed los, i made sure not to set up a pin after 1st boot during rom setup, then tried to reboot into recovery, but ended up with black screnn + blue led. I tried to reinstall twrp via fastboot - no success. Then i formatted data partition via fastboot, which made me boot into recovery again.
I still dont get why and when blue led happens or encryption fails although ive never seen a "encryption failed" message. Only the blue led...

Thanks guys for the help, got it sorted by flashing stock ROM in fast boot ?

Maybe change data path to exe4?

In order to fix this, you have to do a data wipe via fastboot and then flash twrp again. If you are coming from stock rom, you need to change data partition to ext4 (by default it;s f2fs) and it should work fine. I think that f2fs has its advantages, but twrp does not seem to support it. Maybe on a future update

Phone stuck in bootloop. Tried tons of things.

So, I have an N7100. I have rooted my phone a few times. The last time was over a year ago and it worked fine. Yesterday, suddenly (I haven't attempted to flash anything) it restarted on its own and won't boot. I tried to go into the TWRP recovery I had installed over a year ago, but TWRP will only load for a second and then disappear and the phone would restart again and go into the bootloop. As a result, I can't wipe cache partition.
I can confirm that I can connect successfully to ODIN and flash a different version of TWRP. I have failed to flash CWM so far... maybe I couldn't find a correct version since my phone has knox???
I tried flashing a different kernel, but that didn't work either. Do I need a specific kernel?
The only thing I need to do is recover my files, whether it is through recovering the phone, or accessing the internal storage.
Can someone please help me? I don't want to do a complete wipe.
And in case this is relevant, my ROM is the custom OMEGA rom, I'm not sure which version though. Either 31, or 26, which is either for android 4.3 or 4.4.2.
Thanks
Hey,
I have the same problem, the phone just restarted on it's own yesterday, restarted again and is now stuck at the bootlogo.
Wiping Cache and Dalvik on it's own doesn't suffice, Wiping the system partition too (TWRP) gets the phone to boot, but it will restart again after a couple of minutes, again stuck at the boot logo.
I'm using the limbean ROM.
shadnixx, wiping the system partition does not mean that you're going to loose your data - you should try that, after the factory reset the phone is usable for a couple of minutes, I will now try to flash a newer ROM and gapps, maybe the problem will go away with that.

Thanks for replying. I can't wipe the partition. That requires that I get into recovery, right? I can't even get into recovery. TWRP loads for just 1 second and then the phone reboots.

have you tried to reinstall TWRP recovery? Maybe yours is corrupted, try to flash the latest version again. If that help you boot in recovery, things will be easier to haddle after.

Yeah I already tried that. Thanks though
@shadnixx Well use every possible way to flash and enter custom recovery. Try Philz, TWRP, CWM, everything...
If everything fails you'lll have to reflash Stock ROM using Odin. I've heard is wipes data but not internal storage but I'm not sure and don't balme me if it happens. Search xda a little.
See these threads: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583588
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1121817
If that fails then the phone has hardware damage I think. Needs to go to service.

Thanks for your reply. That's what I'm trying to do. One question... do I have to have a specific CWM version that is compatible with my ROM?
Progress
OK, while flashing TWRP failed to help, flashing Philz Touch enabled me to get into recovery. I was able to mount the external SD card and browse the files, but the real problem is with the internal storage, since the SD card is removable. I couldn't manage to mount it. Can someone help with that?
Wiping the cache partition didn't help either.
You tried different tar versions of twrp?
What is the error message in Odin when trying to flash twrp?
Tried flashing twrp with different USB cables and USB ports?

I'm sad to report, after I wiped the cache and restarted my phone, Philz would behave like TWRP did, which is to load for 1 second then reboot. Yes, I tried 4 different versions of TWRP, same result. Odin doesn't give any errors. It says that flashing was successful. Tried different cables and ports too, yes.
Possible power button or battery problem?

Don't think so. I just replaced the battery... still same problem. And when I enter Odin "Download" mode, it doesn't keep restarting, so I don't think it's the power button.
I got a small update though...
Flashed another version of philz, which works every time I boot to recovery. A few problems though...
1. I can wipe cache partition, no problem. But When I try to wipe Dalvik, the phone reboots as soon as I try.
2. Aroma file explorer doesn't show any files.
3. I can mount external SD, but I can't mount internal storage
4. When using ADB, it could finally initiate pulling files from the internal storage (or that's what it appears to be doing), but only while on recovery mode. A few seconds after it says "listing files" or something, the phone reboots and the ADB operation aborts. It doesn't behave like this when I access other sections of philz recovery.
Any thoughts?
Another small update...
While using philz, I clicked the "install zip from sdcard" and it showed my folders. I think my files are intact, but I guess I can't be certain.
Small update again...
I flashed Aroma File Explorer from Philz, I managed to enter my internal storage browse around for a bit, but then the phone rebooted again. I tried to repeat so I could copy my internal storage, but now my internal storage says symlink error.

Listen up - Transfer any ROM to your external SD card, touchwiz based to avoid any complications if you can.
When you get into recovery (at least on TWRP 3 on my Galaxy Note 2 LTE this works) you can connect your phone to PC and transfer all the files, it just gets recognised.
If that fails then wipe /data and /cache partition and see if it boots. If that fails/succeeds then try to flash new ROM and wipe /data and see if it will boot. Data is not the same as internalSD. Data is your apps and settings, you can reinstall that later. InternalSD is your pictures and all. You want your pictures, not your apps, right? It is different.
But who knows what happened here. Malware? Corrupt partition? Hardware failure of some kind? Don't blame me if flashing a new ROM breakes everything even more.

Nope
..this format option is in advanced, partition SD card, but if you can't, so try to format SD CARD with SD CARD READER in pc and install twrp 2.8.6.0....
but try flash again kernel or flash kernel via TWRP--> 2.8.6.0
Go back to CWM or TWRP older that 3.0.0-0 and wipe system/cache/data. If you can't wipe, the phone is doomed.

[SOLVED] Help! "encryption unsuccessful" message!

I was running oos based nougat custom rom with blu spark recovery. Then flashed official ob1, didnt like it, wiped cache/data/system and reinstalled my old oos nougat rom (audax 4.7.6). Now i get the above mentioned message..
Things i tried:
- addionally wipe internal storage and media (installed rom via adb sideload then)
- reformat system/cache/date with ext4
I googled the error and for most people (threads werent particularly concerning the op5t however) it seems that just wiping data and reinstalling the rom did the trick. Not for me though..
What can i do now?
Solution: reformating the data partition with ext4 is not enough. I had to format to FAT and right after that again to ext4, reboot to system and boom, it worked!
PS: i wonder what data is on the internal storage partition that i deleted? I didnt have any data on the phone, i just wonder.. It isnt somehow crucial to the phone?!
I think the decryption key is somehow embedded into the internal storage as wiping /data does not delete the PIN/pattern. Might be a hidden partition or something similar that is not wiped when wiping /data as long as it is ext4.
Your data is gone. It failed to completely encrypt and now there's nothing that can be done. Format /data as ext4 and let it try encrypting again
I have the same problem exactly. Can you explain in steps you have installed then format or how?

I had the exact same problem. But it is an easy fix but does require wiping your internal storage.
So the save way of doing this would be:
1. Backup all your data by going to TWRP or your ROM if that still works. Plug in an USB cable and use MTP or the adb pull command to backup your data
2. Reflash OB1 with no root (like Magisk of SuperSU) if you have TWRP. This will cause you to have the stock recovery again. I also recommend to do a clean flash (Wiping system and data before flashing the rom).
3. Download the rollback build from Oneplus [HERE] and copy this to the internal storage.
4. Boot into the stock recovery flash the rollback build. THIS STEP WILL WIPE YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE.
5. Now you have OxygenOS 4.7.5. Download OxygenOS 4.7.6 Incremental Update [HERE]
6. Go back to the Stock recovery and flash the incremental 4.7.6 zip.
7. You have the latest version now. So boot to fastboot reflash TWRP and flash SuperSU or Magisk in TWRP to regain root
Guys I did a fail, i had OB3 installed, and I wanted to try RR so I wiped system and when I tried to install I have seen error 7 saying its for dumpling not for oenplus5t.
So I restored.... But instead restoring OB3 I have restored stock Nougat rom -.- I have even stock recovery now, what is the best way to fix it?
Can i change to FAT and stay and dont go back to ex4 again?
Hi i don't know if u r reading this but if you are please help me cause I'm so lost and confused over this since yesterday...
so 2 days ago my phone started lagging and hanging and freezing until i realized i have got this issue with data encryption
i have a rooted sony z2 with TWRP Custom recovery
first i didn't know it was with data encryption failure so i literally factory reset and installed all my apps and data again and again!!! after every time my phone started to lag !!
after one whole day of trying everything i finally realized its actually with the data encryption and i should change my ex4 to something else... so here again i wiped the phone and changed to ex3 and installed and all my data and apps all over again
but after a couple hours...same problem again.....
im literally so tired of not knowing what to do ! my head hurts so much due this ugh....
i havent changed to FAT from ex3 so im wondering if it will finally solve my problem permanently if i change to FAT ??
And if it did can i just keep it on FAT forever ?
Please guide me thanks ...!

Problem after flashing wth global rom

Hello,
I get Xiaomi mix 2s global with:
-Unblocked bootloader
-Installed OrangeFox Recovery
-Installed some Android 10 pixel experience rom
I wanted back to original global rom with stock recovery and reblock bootloader, so i download Global Stable ROM V11.0.5.0.QDGMIXM, put to internal storage and install from OrangeFox.
And now, when I turn on the smartphone, it’s starts, restart and go again to OrangeFox recovery.
In log I have: “Android Rescue Party trigger! Wipe data and caches and/or clean-flash you ROM!"
OrangeFox disables forced encryption by default, and now I need to enabled encryption? How to do it?
So, How to fix it?
I want to back to original global rom with stock recovery and reblock bootloader, bu first I have t turn on system.
Thanks
EDIT:
After installatin PixelExperience_polaris-10.0-20200528-1111-OFFICIAL from OrangeFox, smartphone starts normally, now I want to back to stock rom, recovery and reblock bootloader.
If your bootloader unlocked try formatting your data in orange fox recovery and reboot and see if that fixes it. Just remember formatting data partition wipes everything on your device so anything you want to save be sure and transfer over to your PC first.
doesntwork

I got the same error - Android Rescue Party trigger..." and bootlop.
EDIT:
But I wiped:
Dalvik / ART Cache
Cache
System
Data
Didn't wipe: Internal storage and Vendor.
After that, i installed Global stable V11.0.5.0.QDGMIXM and get the same error, but some settings have been saved - for example my pattern for unlocking.
EDIT:
I did: wipe all, reboot to twrp, flash ROM, and when I try format data, I get error:
Formatting Data using mke2fs...
mke2fs -t ext4 b...
Proces ebded with ERROR: 1
Unable to wipe Data.
Unable to format to remove encryption.
EDiT3:
Success!
I tried once more, and it's ok.
Solution:
1. Wipe all via recovery
2. reboot to recovery
3. flash rom
4. Format data partition (format, no wipe, if mke2fs doesn't work, try with rm-f)
5. Reboot system.
After that everything is ok, at the end uploading stock recovery via adb went without a any problem.
Thanks!
Just to help many others. The trick here, is to format data, not just wipe data from TWRP. You need to hit format data from the wipe menu and type "yes" to confirm. Some things need to be said in plain English.

Internal Storage

Help me please.
My phone is in a bootloop and twrp cant mount /data. I tried formatting and changing file system but it all failed. I cant flash rom in MiFlash and it says "flash xbl error" or "FAILED (File is too large to download)"
What did you do before the phone went into bootloop? Also did you format on TWRP via Wipe -> Format Data?
just format data and install rom through micro sd if your internal storage not working in twrp

Alright. Im not that experienced with edl. Can you send picture of Wipe -> Advanced Wipe that we can see all of the partitions? Maybe also if you can send pictures of every partitions details by ticking them and then going to "Repair or Change File System" and taking screenshots? Don't know if this is gonna help, but it's worth a try.
