Galaxy J727P

Hello, I've been needing some help.
So, I finally figured out how to flash TWRP onto my Samsung Galaxy J7 (2015) (SM-J700T)
I was in the recovery mode, and was flashing magisk root.
When I flashed it, the device said success, so I rebooted the phone.
I saw an error saying:

Verification Failed:
We were unable to restart your phone. The integrity verification has failed. Please reset your phone.
*reset*

I honestly didn't have pictures or anything, so I pressed it. Every time I pressed it I would boot into TWRP or recovery mode.
I couldn't figure it out, but I did some googling and it has happened to people before. People with TWRP, no root. TWRP with root, and people whom had, no root at all.
One reply said to wipe it using TWRP recovery. I pressed the wipe button and slid the thing that said Factory Reset
It would say Error mounting /data
I scrolled some more on the thread and someone said to format it, people said they had success.
now, this is where I am having an issue
It successfully rebooted, but I sit on the T-Mobile Logo. I haven't gone longer than 5 minutes, so maybe I need to wait a while.

Good news:
Successfully installed TWRP.
Am able to mount /data now.
Can still access TWRP (With terminal and flashing, all of that).
Can still modify /data.
Can still boot into Odin/Download mode.
Am able to get to the T-Mobile logo.

Bad news:
Potentially soft bricked my phone, within a matter of 30 seconds.

Phone info:
SM-J700T
Samsung Galaxy J7 2015

Nope, I don't. You have been posting misleading threads a lot lately, and I'm aggravated with it.

I just entered Odin mode and pressed cancel to trick the phone into thinking that I uninstalled root. Maybe you should read the full situation before posting some solution that I said I already tried. Plus, my situation had nothing to do with deleting files, my storage was just corrupt.

U would stop having issues if u would follow posts. Every single issue u posted has been addressed and resolved. You are in the wrong section. Should be in the J700T sub forum. That verification fail error is due to u not flashing the encryption break no verity zip. U must flash that after flashing anything. As one of the sole developers for this device I promise you I know that phones file system better than anyone. And what 8.1 rom are u running? There is no such thing unless u compiled one..

And no your files aren't corrupted, they're encrypted.big difference. We dissected those errors over 2 years ago.
You could not have "tricked" your phone into thinking u had root removed, u got it to boot cuz u opted for not being able to mount internal storage due to the existing encryption
