Just formatted a 64gb sd card, am backing up my internal storage(pics, music, TWRP backups, etc.) I never restore rom data, settings, system apps/data or anything like that- Tibu taught me the hard way haha so after the usb backup is finished, flash image and format? Then flash my rom of choice and plug in my usb otg and copy it all back to my phone correct? Or am I missing a step?
Data destruction should be acknowledged before doing format and rewrite to other partition.
Process is not converting, its formatting.
So for people that dont know this, we should put a huge warning in OP and if possible in recovery before wipe trigger.

Is your time set correctly (and your time zone) in your existing recovery?
Yes. Time is accurate, not using 24-hour clock, time zone is right and use DST is checked.
Sorry, but I've got to commute home from work now. Won't be able to get back on xda until later tonight, maybe 9:30 Central time. Will be happy to continue troubleshooting then.
What ROM is it and i can convert it for you
---------- Post added at 12:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:56 PM ----------
So I formatted my /data partition to F2FS and am getting the encryption unlock prompt as well. I verified that data_system.sh and init.g2.rc existed on my phone beforehand. I think the problem is that since /data is now F2FS it doesn't mount properly since fstab.g2 is still trying to mount it ext4 and so it assumes it must be encrypted.
I know I can go back to ext4 but I really want to get to F2FS. Can someone please tell me how to permanently change /fstab.g2? It gets replaced at each boot via some method that I am not familiar with.
This is on VS980 running CloudyG3 2.0 and Dorimanx kernel 8.5. Thanks in advance!
Open the file and look, there is no more data mount inside when your partition is f2fs before you post an wrong info without even check it.

Ok. When you get home let me know what recovery you are using currently.
Sorry, dori, I don't know what you mean. After formatting /data to F2FS I made sure it was mounted and I adb pushed my pics, media, tibu files back into it before attempting to reboot. Adb wouldn't connect when it was at the encryption PIN screen so I couldn't tell what was mounted. I know it couldn't have been mounted though because fstab.g2 has ext4 as its type and it was F2FS at that point. That mount attempt would have failed and I just made an assumption that that was why I was getting the encryption PIN screen because it is the only time I've ever seen it.Open the file and look, there is no more data mount inside when your partition is f2fs before you post an wrong info without even check it.

I am using your TWRP 2.8.0.2 I loki_flashed earlier today from your .img you posted this morning. I will be online later.
Vs980 working great here with 2.8.0.2!!
You must use flashify app and flash the .img in android

A) If you're already using the most recent version, why are you trying to reinstall it?
B) I installed the vs980 zip on my phone successfully, but since I have a d800, I obviously couldn't boot it. However, flashing within TWRP worked fine.
I messaged one of the other vs980 users to see if they have same problem before trying to diagnose further.
LOL, I know it's really derpy to install the same version over the top. It's half OCD and half best practice. I thought it would be good to keep the zip around in case some future twrp zip failed for some reason I'd have this version on my phone already and could just flash it back. And I thought well I'd better test it first...
