I had to run the Qualcomm restore tool to get back from this state. Obviously you will loose all data when doing so.

The strange thing is I just flashed the same LineageOS zip as before and ended in this state. [emoji848]

what should I do now?

format data if you are installing the new rom over a stock oxygem rom that will delete all your data and remove encryption.

From fastboot you need to format userdata (you will loss everything, however you might have already lost everything). You will get formatted decrypted internal storage with reduced size. Don't panic.

Then you required to flash blue_spark TWRP recovery (v50 or latest) from fastboot.
Then boot to recovery and format internal storage from Advance Wipe menu (under Wipe). You will regain the actual internal storage size.

Flash your desired rom.

OP, I tried the latest LineageOS unofficial and got the same error. Just reflash a ROM like Cardinal Xtended or an Oreo ROM that you have verified to be working on your phone. Clear System, Data and Cache. All should be well, and you don't have to wipe storage.
Cheers!
