f2fs not showing up in TWRP

[hernaner28]

Hi. I accidentaly changed file system of data partition to EXT4 and now when I try to restore my backup I get a warning that the backup was done with f2fs file system. The problem is that TWRP is not showing up the f2fs option when I go to change file system menu. Any help?

Thanks!

I think you can restore the data anyway? I backed up my ext4 data partition, formatted it as f2fs and then restored the backup and it gave me the warning but it worked anyway. If it doesn't let you proceed, reflash TWRP and try again.

What ROM are you trying to restore, may I ask?

Yes i could restore it but it worries me that I can't keep the original stock filesystem. I never changed it and I would like to have it as it was, there must be a reason it is f2fs and not ext4.

It is a stock backup.


Thanks for your replies.
