Yesterday i downloaded the 4.1.5 update via OTA installer in settings, moved the zip to my downloads, went to TWRP wiped data cache and dalvik and flashed it but it gave me an error 7. Currently I have a "Unable to mount /system" problem when i do anything in TWRP. My phone works with the nandroid back up i restored. Root works but the /system isn't mounted according to TWRP which worries me. I want to update to 4.1.5 in the end. Any ideas? Thanks.
Unable to mount /system after failed update

That doesn't work
Backup system, wipe system, flash the rom. You don't loose any data.
I'm kind of a noob, do you mean make a nandroid back up of just the system partition? If so how would that be of use in case things go wrong?
Well. You are going to wipe system right? Then you back I up just incase.. That's all..
If i want a fresh install of the update (currently on the version before it) do i also wipe data and cache?
So when I'm in the backup section, system is a ridiculously large size according to twrp (17592186044375mb) and system image is 3gb itself. Should i just try wiping and see what happens?
First, what TWRP are you using?
I recomand eng-stk blu-spark 3.1.1.35.
When you back up in recovery don't check system image.

As of right now im on 3.1.0-0 twrp. I was able to remount system after wiping it but whenever i go to flash the rom it says no os installed and i get a boot loop on the oxygen logo spinning
Well in the past I've been able to get full roms of oos to work via twrp. I also dont know hoe to use fastboot even if i wanted to install oxygen recovery
You can flash Oxygen Recovery with TWRP! TWRP has option to flash recovery image, go to Install> then on right hand bottom corner select IMAGE, then choose Recovery and flash!Well in the past I've been able to get full roms of oos to work via twrp. I also dont know hoe to use fastboot even if i wanted to install oxygen recovery
Or use the unified op3 toolkit to flash oxygen recovery, you can also switch back easily with the toolkit.
I dont have much experience with Oxygen recovery and i don't want to risk messing something up even further, is there any other solution you can think of?
Youre recovery it's old for ob17 or 4.1.5. I recomend custom recovery so you can instal what ever rom you want., twrp eng-stk, blue spark 3.1.1.35
And the message NO os, in twrp it's ok. Some twrp give that message, but if you reboot to system, phone works fine.
