I checked the log and there is large block of red text with this repeating statement "E:Invalid block device on ‘dev/block/mmcblk0p9" etc. This is for all partitions it would seem. I can use the disabler to return back to CM recovery using ADB sideload which works fine but I need TWRP to install the GAPPS package. Thank you for all your hard work though! I’ve used SlimLP for the i777 so that I might get away with the tiny system partition this device comes with! Anyways again, if this is the wrong place to ask please tell me. The reason I ask here is because I cannot tell if it’s an issue with TWRP being in the recovery partition or not. TWRP works fine when bundled with the kernel as with your own ROM but with IsoRec not so much. I’ve also reached out to Lanchon but have not received a response yet. We’ll see how this goes. Thanks for your time!

@LythicWyvern , It’s typically better to keep these discussions public, because there is a decent likelihood that someone else will have the same question.
What you’re describing sounds like what happens when the twrp.fstab file is not present in the root of the device. When I build Slim, it’s included in the slim.zip package, and is installed to the appropriate location when flashed. I have never used IsoRec, so I’m not sure how isorec treats the installation of twrp recovery. If we can get this straightened out here, I’ll certainly reach out to Lanchon to at least share our findings.
first things first though, I’ll grab my i777 during lunch, and check to see where the twrp.fstab is installed, and if you’re willing to test, then we can see if it’s present in the correct location after the isorec installation.
