I guess the problem is related to cache partition. you can try to fix it with fastboot format:ext4 cache or from twrp recovery with adb shell twrp wipe cache also formatting the cache partition will help adb shell mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p27 You can manually backup your data (sdcard) partition. if data is encrypted, mount it with `twrp decrypt <password>` where you have to use your screen lock pin/password. if you use a screen lock pattern you must translate it to password (see [https://blog.alxu.ca/unlocking-large-pattern-encryption-in-twrp.html][1]) GNU tar for android and external MicroSD Card or USB-OTG flash drive is required for this. The tar binary is included in [open_gapps.zip][2], download and unpack it, copy the binary to MicroSD Card and rename it to "tar" mkdir /data mount -t ext4 -o ro,noexec,noload,noatime /dev/block/mmcblk0p28 /data cp /external_sd/tar /tmp chmod a+x /tmp/tar /tmp/tar --selinux --xattrs --numeric-owner -vcpP /data | gzip | split -a 1 -b 1024m - /external_sd/data.ext4.tar.gz. if partition is not mountable, you can copy the partition with dd dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p28 of=/external_sd/data.img bs=1024 count=28551146 dd if=/dev/block/dm-0 of=/external_sd/data_decrypted.img bs=1024 count=28551146 edit: (thx @ Nicolas Raoul) if your phone neither has external MicroSD Card nor USB-OTG support, you can stream the partition over adb. adb pull /dev/block/mmcblk0p28 C:\adb\data.img adb pull /dev/block/dm-0 C:\adb\data_decrypted.img Open the file with **OSFMount** or mount it from sudo (see above command). The sdcard folder is located `/data/media/0`. If you want to restore the apps later on encrypted data partition, it is recommended to create a tar archive (in addition to the above flags) with `--exclude data/media` this will reduce the backup size [1]: https://blog.alxu.ca/unlocking-large-pattern-encryption-in-twrp.html [2]: https://opengapps.org
