How do I check this: "are you sure that you have your data partition unmounted in step 1 of my instruction?" ?

When I go to "MOUNT", data is unclicked.

I tried this "2. Format DATA using advanced wipe, i.e: WIPE -> ADVANCED WIPE -> select 'DATA' -> REPAIR OR CHANGE FILESYSTEM -> CHANGE FILESYSTEM -> EXT4", but in the command window an error message appeared related to "failed to mount data" or something like that. And I was not able to do it.

Next time, I will include a log. I don't know how to solve this problem.

PD: Does

rebooting to recovery from twrp

help? It's something I've read in another post.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sergiolopezsan:
Here you have what appears on the screen when I click on Wipe >> Format Data. What else should I do?

(Ignore the last line)
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Cieniek:
Strange, looks a bit like Data partition is mounted and in use, but I'm not sure.

I would try sth like going to terminal and writing

mount | grep dm-0

to make sure Data is really unmounted (there should be empty result of this command).

What else come to my mind - Do you have this phone connected to a computer while in TWRP? Perhaps your computer is using Data partition through MTP protocol - there is button in mount section to disable MTP.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LuK1337:
>there should be empty result of this command

Yeah, in case of `this` command the result will be always empty xD
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] sergiolopezsan:
Eventually, I could format data and install the ROM.

I am not sure what was the problem. I think the reason was the conection with the PC. When I repeated the process without the USB connected, all was fine.

Thanks.

I have some questions. I have Lineage 15.1 and the latest official TWRP.

1. How do I root? Should I use the root of the Lineage official webpage or magisk? I would like to keep using apps like Pokémon Go, Netflix, banks...

2. What are the advantages of rooting? Which apps do you recommend me? eg: Adway to block ads...

3. Would it be possible to "delete/eliminate" the root afterwards?

Thanks.

I have a issue. Yestarday I installed the 18-january-nightly through the previous one with the Lineage updater through TWRP.

I don't know if that matters.

The problem is that I am not receiving notifications in some apps. For example, in Telegram I have to open the app to see the notifications.

In addition, in Gmail I open the app and also do not receive new emails. I hace to refresh the box manually to see if I have new emails rather than getting them automatically. (The synchronization is activated). With Google Calendar, the same issue.

Any solution?

Yesterday I installed LOS16, but an important app did not work on this version.

So i restored my LOS15 backup with TWRP 3.2.3. After that system did not boot normal, but alway just booted to fastboot.

I tried to restore only system and data, then tried restoring boot and efs partitions too. but always got the same result: fastboot.

Finally I did a fresh install of xiaomi rom and LOS15 and everything booted fine again.

Have I done something wrong with backup/restore, oder may the backup just have been corrupted?

BTW: I am now on 22-feb-nightly and have no problems with notifications so far.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] maghfurcak:
in order to restore, u need to flash ROM first (same ROM that u do with backup before) and then u can restore it. i do this way and everything is ok.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] donny02:
You mean xiaomi ROM which is first flashed, or lineage ROM which was installed at backup time?

I cannot understand why people are being so toxic for other people asking help. Because of countless hate comments like yours, useful comments in this thread(e.g comment with google camera link) are fading away quickly to previous pages.

This is a FORUM. If you don't know what is main purpose of a forum, or main purpose of internet, then you're using them completely wrong. They're here for people to share their knowledge, and help each other.

Here is the working google camera if anyone needs it btw: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6co3AxaqCjSTmxfaFRVNDlmY2s/view I have tested it myself, working perfectly.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] predragiPredrag:
I know what is forum, since I am probably older than you ;) Main thing that everyone is so f*** sensitive about is that first rule in life is to learn to do something yourself and not ask for help without even trying. That is something kids are doing because they are learning about life, NOT GROWN UP PEOPLE!

Nowdays instead of reading through the thread, and using search engine to first see if their questin is beeing answered they usually anoy DEV for solutions! And that is toxic, beeing lazy and expectiong that someone else solves your problem without trying by yourself in first place. And those same people are sensitive when you put tham on the line and tell them that that behaviour is not OK.

I have seen to many forums destroyed by this kind of people, because they are like spam, and they drive away good forum users with non productive posts. So in the end FORUM is not HELP CENTER, it is a comunity a place to share knowledge, give knowledge and learn new stuff if it is not already solved and answered.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] everesee:
Being old is not a criteria. I don't believe one will care about your age while discussing with you in internet. You don't need to denote that while discussing in here.

I have seen many forums, and communities destroyed by kind of people who is being toxic to people asking for help. I'm also an indie game developer, and I'm having fun to reply people's questions related to my work(even if they're repetitive ones). If a dev is getting annoyed by these kinds of questions, I think being a developer of something is not a job for him/her.

It says you're a QA engineer in your xda profile. I wonder how well you're doing with this job. When your customer asks you a question about a software that you're managing test process, are you being toxic to them too? Maybe replying them with "All it writes in the test procedure, why asking to me?". Meh.

PS: Also I'm having hard times on reading your comments because of the misspelled words. Before being toxic to me too, spend some time to correct your words, don't be the lazy guy that you mentioned in your comment. I highlighted them just for you in the mention above.

I will just leave few things for you to read :D

1. XDA Rules https://xdaforums.com/announcement.php?a=81 clean and simple (my favourite is no 1)

2. QA is not customer support ;) there is HELP DESK, CALL CENTER etc. for that. So learn the difference ;) Also in the IT world if you ask for stupid questions (without reading anything, and expecting for others to solve your problems) you get fired because you are paid to use your brain. The thing you are indi dev just proves the point since you have to do QA, DEV, SUPPORT job by yourself.

3. Don't cling on my spelling errors and fact that I am "toxic" as your arguments :D :D

[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Erlonbie123:
I guess be annoyed by repetitive questions there is nothing to do with being a developer or something like that. I'm not saying we should repress people that asks without searching, but we should always try to educate them to use the search engine before asking.

Also making an analogy, I believe you can't/shouldn't ask fo law enforcement if didn't even tried to solve the problem with someone/ a company.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] everesee:
Well then, if we already started a quarrel, I can respond with you reading the Rule #10 in the link you attached.

I don't know what kind of QA department you're working at, but the "customer" notion in my comment was equal to a company or a group of people that you're going to sell your product. If they're not joining your company's acceptance tests, and not asking questions about how well is going these tests, then something is really wrong with that company. I recommend looking for a new job.

Well, I see you started spending time on your spelling errors, no spelling error in your last comment. It's a progress since you have started listening some feedback. I wish same thing for not being toxic to people asking for help.

My point is you're such a pesky person, just complaining about what should people do and do not. People were continuously asking for a working google camera apk, because not every of them working properly on this ROM. The last link sent was before 10 pages back, and it's normal that people couldn't find it since the related post does not have any "searchable" terms, even does not include "camera" word in it.

I will test further to see is there something new to this build.
