How to fix this

It looks like an issue with encryption, you might have not entered the right password

Ohh there's a password thingy that I skipped, I think I canceled it and then go to the "Keep read only" do you think that might be the reason?

exactly.

"keep read only" just for system partition.
you need decrypt for made changes on storage & data partition.

No need to format data? How to decrpyt btw.

You need to enter your password in TWRP.

try to enter your password, if it still like that, so format storage is necessary.

Disable device lock in settings before starting twrp

Is 4.07 posted? I deleted my copy when I updated to 4.08-.10.

Edit: please ignore my request. I was able to dl v.4.07 from the OP.

Disable device lock in settings before starting twrp

It worked, but i have another question. After flashing magisk and twrp it says :
failed to mount'/system_root' (Invalid argument)
failed to mount'/vendor (Invalid argument)

 

[pablo9023]

failed to mount

at all so, but this does not interfere with flashing the device

How to fix this

It looks like an issue with encryption, you might have not entered the right password

the problem with that is, and ive seen this plenty of times, is that TWRP stops prompting you for the password to decrypt

not even manually entering is via command like (with adb) like this decrypts it

abd shell twrp decrypt <password>

its at this point ill tell you the quickest way to resolve things is to use format data (or using fastboot: fastboot erase userdata
) and start over.

Ive never found a workaround to bypass having to format userdata, if someone else has, id love to hear it

Top tip: always keep a copy of whats on your internal sdcard...i always back mine up before flashing a new ROM

As for backing up app and app data....migrate (in my sig)

My ROM flash process (10 second version):

migrate backup
backup files on sdcard
flash ROM
reboot
flash GApps (if necessary)
flash magisk
reboot
setup ROM
reboot
migrate restore
restore sdcard files (if ive had to erase data)

If so they decrypt?

Or I misunderstood?

@flar2 Is there a possibility of making your 4.10 kernel compatible with fast charging? I don't care, as much, but that's a complaint I hear from a lot of the users on our group.

Fast charging works fine, you need the stock battery modules. I have tested this over and over and fast charging works perfectly fine for me on the latest stock factory images.

Thank you! I just found out I'm charging rapidly with the latest EvoX build and EX 4.10. I will pass your insight and comments to the dev.

Is it possible to get a link to 4.08? Anyone? Thanks

Yeah, I have 4.07 and 4.10 from app. Have a 4.09 backup, but missing 4.08 which I would like to try.
