Strange, f2fs is working as the cache partition is mounted as f2fs.

Try formatting DATA first then try using the advanced format options to format to f2fs.

Sorry for the late reply...

I could not format to f2fs the /data partition. I did not try however cache. I will reproduce and give you screenshots(from twrp) + logts when I got time to format data

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] Khaon:
Yup as I said, blkid identifies f2fs for the /userdata partition. however it doesnt mean it aint broken: the kernel embedded with twrp doesnt support f2fs(nor does the last one I had).

So it is either something breaking or for some reason (on samsung behalf) the init binary formats any partition that is not ext4.

I think I will have time later on to reproduce and have more insights.

Ok I just tried again to format but with the latest recovery you shared with me on this thread.

I had the following issue:

Also I found another issues, some entries are duplicated as you see here

Here is my recovery.log in case you want it

EDIT:

the recovery.log file says that my cache partition has f2fs as FS it is not true, it is using ext4.

Thank you, [MENTION=1059661]Ashix[/MENTION], for your work. Could you add your firmware to twrp website officially?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] ashyx:
I could and will in time. I have already spoken to Dees_troy, but the process isn't as simple as you would think.

I have many builds out there in the wild that don't have official support. I don't own most of these devices so to get these officially supported (which simply means new versions will be automatically built by the Jenkins server. I will still be the maintainer) each build needs an official tester to liaise with.

I don't see if anyone had the same issue as mine:

I've done all steps and successfully flashed and rooted my phone, but root didn't seem to work as I expected - I couldn't remove any crapware installed by provider. So i've tried few other ways to find what's wrong:

-reinstalled busybox, with replacing its "pieces"

-repeated steps about getting root with newer update packages.

After that, I've lost my root!

I gave up then and forgot for few months.

Today I miss my superpower and wan't to have root again.

So I flashed new TWRP and new SuperSU (UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76-20160630161323.zip) but doesn't work. I couldn't find in log if something is missing:

Sm-a310f a310fxxu2apc5

Hi Ashyx, thank you for your TWRP, however I am a bit confused about my version of the SM-A310F, I read this recovery is for the SM-A310F/FD/Y/M - Exynos7580 , my phone is also a A310F Exynos7580, but I want to be sure before I flash anything, below my specs

Lollipop MR1 (5.1.1.)

Model: SM-A310F (a3xeltexx)

Smalbandversion: A310FXXU2APC5

Buildfingerpint.: Samsung/a3xeltexx/a3xelte:5.1.1/LMY47X/A310FXXU2APDC:user/release-keys

I don’t see on my phone specs neither the box or papers barcodes anything similar like /FD/Y/M only SM-A310F with the specs as above.

Thanks !

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] is0xxx:
verify pls.

Hi guys,

First off, great website and thx for all the info on here :)

It's my first Android phone and i read a lot to understand the process for rooting the device.

Seems here is all the correct info to do so, still i'm not 100% sure if i'm doing this correct.

[B]
Samsung A3 SM-310F[/B]
Android 6.0.1
Kernel 3.10.61-8581216
Baseband: A310FXX42BPG6
BuildID: MMB29K.A310FXX42BPG6

Steps so far that i completed:

* Enabled Developers mode and set correct USB settings.

* Installed Samsung USB Drivers

When i follow this short tutorial i have some doubts about the complete process. Can anyone confirm that this is the correct way, pls verify.

1) Put Samsung into Download mode ( btw = This mode the same as Bootloader mode?!)

* Either using the buttons or using ADB commands: adb reboot download

2) Connect the phone with USB to the PC

3) Run Odin and load TWRP Image into the AP tab ( Auto-reboot disabled)

4) Flash TWRP and as soon as it finish flashing, reboot the phone into Recovery:

* ADB: adb reboot recovery or must the buttons be used instead?

5) It now loads into TWRP Recovery

FInally complete the hack by rooting the device with SuperSU using TWRP

Thx for any confirmation if the above is correct.

Happy Holidays :)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] is0xxx:
Seems i'm asking a stupid Q? Is it to much asking for a confirmation if the above is the correct way? Bare with me...i'm a first time Android user that's all. :p

Thx in advance.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] ashyx:
Your steps are good enough, just make sure you uncheck autoreboot in odin then reboot to recovery manually after flashing.

Don't worry bricks are highly unlikely and easily recoverable.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] is0xxx:
cheers!

[MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION]

Alright :) I ditch adb for awhile and use the buttons instead.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] ashyx:
OK several things, one is your device will not boot without the build.prop, two NEVER EVER make ANY modifications to your device until you have made a FULL backup with TWRP (THE CORE REASON FOR HAVING A CUSTOM RECOVERY)

Lastly your device doesn't have a MISC partition and that message is only displayed in the STOCK recovery.

Dear Members,

My friend owns a Moto G XT1033 (dual sim Indian version) and recently had the software go wrong. Now the phone boots - shows boot unlocked warning, booting animation. After the MOTO symbol, all that we get is a blank screen.

Now, things that I tried to recover the phone is as follows -

1. Booted into recovery menu - tried accessing the RECOVERY option. I get a NO COMMAND error (with the android lying down on his back)

2. Tried flashing custom recovery (both TWRP and CWM) - using fastboot option - I get "MISMATCHED PARTITION SIZE" error. I ignored that error (as read somewhere in this forum), I still get "NO COMMAND" while accessing the RECOVERY option

3. Tried to sideload stock 4.4.4 version using adb - the system pushes the rom to the phone successfully, but in couple of minutes I get "installation aborted" error.

I've done all I could with the help of other threads with no success. I would request your help to recover the phone. Apologies if I have started another duplicate thread on this issue. Please help. Thanks in advance.
