Well that is the default for at least my 6p. Flashfire doesn't have that problem and backs up the encrypted partition just fine AND restores it encryption intact.

TWRP can't do that. So FF it's my choice for backups.

And I'm not going disable device login protections to disable encryption so I can do a full device backup. But that's me.

Hi,

I tried to update my phone with Google's July full OTA patch on my Nexus 5x. After deactivating the time bomb, I launch the flash and the phone restarts and remains frozen on a backlit black screen. If anyone has any idea...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cnjax:
Since development and support has ceased, I suggest you find an alternate flash method.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] roirraW "edor" ehT:
What root method are you using? I've only had success so far (on the Pixel, so may be different on the Nexus 5x) using Magisk v14.2 with FlashFire on Android 8.1. I've never fooled with the OTAs, I download the entire firmware on the phone and flash every partition via FlashFire, and have FlashFire wipe cache and then flash the custom kernel I use and then Magisk v14.2 again, all in one session (disable EverRoot).

I know some newer versions of Magisk work for some other phones with FlashFire, maybe Pixel 2, but I have no idea on the 5x. Good luck!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Kartlis:
Naively I thought that if the application was still on the Google store I could still use it for basic things like updating my phone while keeping the Root....

Hi, I'm trying to update my rooted stock galaxy S8+ G955FD with FlashFire but when I select and scan the firmware zip the only thing that it detects is modem, all the other partitions are missing, but do show up as "(Unknown)" when I touch the "create new archive" button. Is this supposed to happen?

EDIT: So I just extracted the AP, CP, and HOME_CSC and deleted the "userdata" and "recovery" img and re-compressed it into a tar file with the same name as the originals and flashed it through the latest odin. Worked perfectly and all my apps and app data are 100% safe. There's just some weird added menu options in the settings, but everything works and got updated so I won't complain.

It works when tried 2-3 times....

Symptoms of success is when press flash then we get loading and after 48-52 seconds it will appear a screen with FlashFire title in red...and process begins...

Symptoms of not working is when the black screen is for more than 2mins...

and when screen gives a list of system partions by fast scrolling.....(it happened when I tried on stock rom)

The thing I had to do is just rebooting normally...

If not works..then going to custom recovery and flash the rom that is compatible for my device...

Also In my case the app only works with a custom rom only....

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ktmom:
This app is no longer supported and likely is not working correctly on your newer firmware.

"Laggy" might get fixed with a factory reset. Back up your files ect. first.

Lost USB functionality, unable to root via USB.

Samsung SM-N920W8, Canadian Note 5. Have successfully rooted many times via odin. Never flashed a custom rom just used stock. Installed Flashfire to wipe system and maintain root. Wiped successfully, lost root. Lost USB ADB functionality and USB fast charge. Unable to OTA because I have a device showing status as "custom". I would like to find a solution if possible to get USB ADB connectivity or root back. This is not a blame game. I knew the risks of using this app. I'm just looking to see if there is a solution. When I connect my note to any windows PC with Samsung drivers and ADB Debugging enabled. I just get a "device not recognized" error on the PC. Only happened after I wiped it. No longer able to use odin on PC as normal. Lost custom recovery so no flashing SuperSu either. Tried flashing stock rom via stock recovery and get an error there as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

blank screen after scanning archive

Hey All,

I have a question.

I have a rooted s8 and use flashfire and magisk

If I want to update I start flashfire and choose " flash firmware package" .

I downloaded the firmware from updato.

It starts scanning the archive and when its done nothing happens.

I have a screenshot from the screen I get.

Anybody know what this is?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] HemanthJabalpuri:
Possibly it is a corrupted file...i think...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] silverik1:
No, the file is good, tried different files as well, all the same.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jult:
Sounds like your bootloader is damaged. What error does flashing thru stock recovery give you? Have you tried factory reset from stock recovery? First do that. Then see if that fixes USB access in Download mode with Odin. Flash latest stock firmware (from SamFirm) through Odin. Then flash TWRP, install magisk through TWRP and you're back as root.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Biggspeed:
I have done a reset from stock recovery. No change. "DM-Verity Verification Failed" , is the error I get when try to flash Stock via stock recovery.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KaMyKaSii:
If the ota is doing integrity checking, it probably is not a full ota, check this out. And have you tried Heimdall instead of Odin? If it still does not work on Windows, try on Linux

https://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall/
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Biggspeed:
I haven't tried Heimdall no, but I dont even get to that point. Odin works, its Windows not recognizing the device on every PC I've tried. I've thought about Linux but don't have a machine that runs it and figured it would recognize it the same way. And zero Linux experience too. As for a complete OTA I thought it was. Any good links for a complete OTA that you could point me towards? Thanks for the help.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jult:
Have you tried an older Odin version, like 3.12.3 ?

Either way, your /boot is damaged. You won't get proper USB connectivity on a Note with that.

https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model

Assuming your Region is BMC, fill that in with SamFirm to grab the full latest firmware.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Biggspeed:
Ok downloaded samfirm and downloaded the firmware. Was able to get the new firmware to my phone. Placed it in the root directory not in any folder. Booted to recovery. Selected apply update from SD card and got the same error "DM-Verity verification failed... Update from external storage is disabled."
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ktmom:
I mean this as an effort for you to get the fastest help possible. But also to help this FlashFire thread not get so far off topic.

This is a question that will get the best assistance in a device specific forum. You may have a DM verity file that needs to be flashed but it's not a FlashFire issue at this point.

Hi,

I'm trying to install Xposed (v64 sdk26 arm64) on a Asus ZE554KL Android 8.0.0.

I performed the bootloader unlocking, and then with "tricks" I installed TWRP (3.1.1-0-Z01K) because it was overwritten by the stock recovery. Now it is working with TWRP and root (with Magisk-v17.1), I also used "no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0".

But when I reboot on the device, I again have Internal Storage (0MB) and the error "Failed to mount '/ data' and Unable to mount storage."

This is the same problem I have before flashing the no-verify "no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0" and "Magisk-v17.1" which I can fix with Wipe / Fortmat Data.

Another strange fact is that whenever you boot the custom Recovery TWRP on the first attempt the screen gets frozen, only when you boot again the TWRP works.

I would be able to flash the Xposed in Asus Zenfone 4 (Android 8.0.0) and install the framework? Or would I have problems at boot or some other problem?

I had this idea because I'm not getting Flash Xposed by TWRP as I described above.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cnjax:
This has nothing to do with flashfire

Turn on airplane mode might fis S4 reboots during backup

I don't know if this will help anyone, but I wanted to share this in case it does.

My S4 (i337) started to have wifi and Bluetooth problems today - trying to turn on either one allowed the slide switch to slide to the right (on), but it stays grey in color for 10-15 seconds, then slides back to the left (off) position without ever turning green. I also ONCE noticed a pop-up toast message appear saying something like "security does allow connection..", but it was too fast to take a screen shot and it never appeared again not matter how many times I tried turning on wifi.

So, what does this have to do with flash fire? I use flashfire to do "normal" backups and it works flawlessly on my S4 (I was able to do a restore and cloned a phone). But I have to use version 0.53 for it to work correctly on my 5.0.1 S4.

I then tried to do a backup today so I can restore it on another S4 to see if the problem follows the backup (software issue) or doesn't (hardware with first/current phone). But Flashfire kept rebooting the phone randomly during the [system] part of the backup, just like other S4 users have reported, but that I never experience before today. I tried this four times and it always rebooted during the backup.

On a hunch that this might be related to the wifi/Bluetooth radio, I set my phone into airplane mode (disables wifi and Bluetooth), and sure enough, the flashfire backup then completed successfully!

So, if you have an S4 and it keep rebooting when you try doing a backup, try installing version 0.53 and also turn on airplane mode and see if that works for you.
