Just a quick question guys: What's the difference between the system and system image backup option? I'm asking because I wonder what's the correct option for making a complete backup of my phone in case of having to send it in for repair or just simply for being able to restore the complete system.

Regards
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
To backup /system as image - if untouched and mounted read only - would be best choice in your case. As the option already says it's an image file of the whole /system partition - including empty sectors on it - while a simple backup of /system is a backup of all folders and data on the partition, leaving empty sectors out of the backup.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Cro Cop:
When I flashed TWRP on my HTC 10, I remember choosing read only at the beginning and then I backed up my system image (untouched), but I forgot to go to the Mount tab and check "mount system as read only". What is the default setting there ?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] yldlj:
It was already read only as you said at the beginning you chose read only.

Added note to FAQ #7 about installing OTA with TWRP.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] ahac85:
[MENTION=1162986]Captain_Throwback[/MENTION] Hi since using v3.0.2.6 i have twice on seperate occasions when restoring a backup, i get a pin error and i know im typing the right pin in the lockscreen. Never have i experienced this using any twrp on any of my past phones. I was able to delete a few files within twrp to in file manager to remove the pin lock to be able to get back in the phone.

Ive gone back to v3.0.2.4 as restoring a backup is super fast compared to 3.0.2.5/6 and dont have problems restoring the backup made with that version.

Also even if i tried restoring the backup using an older version of twrp i got the same error, guess that might be due to making the backup initially with 3.0.2.6
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
The kernel in the newer version is updated to match the 1.80 firmware. If you're on different firmware than that it may cause an issue, I guess. But the PIN issue is covered in the FAQ and is not specific to a TWRP version or device. I've personally experienced it on my N9 and several Nexus threads mention it.

I'm not exactly sure what you'd like me to do here.

Deleted, sorry. I'll reread the OP and get a recovery log.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Nice screenshots, but they're not going to get you anywhere.

As per the OP

and various places (actually numerous posts), especially this

without a recovery.log, "error", and "it doesnt work", wont help

that's why the recovery.log is there, it will tell you when and where it errors out.... could be the ramdump, could be something else, without a log, there's not much someone can say
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jascolli:
My bad. I'll do as suggested. Thx
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] 4rsenal:
Anybody have any clue what is wrong? This happens whenever I try to make a backup on my external SD or USB-OTG I get a message that looks something like

*Generating md5...

*MD5 Created.

Backing up System Image...

Backup failed. Cleaning Backup Folder.

Any help would be great.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
No problems on my end, using latest TWRP. A full output would be helpful. Did you check free space on internal/external SD versus backup size?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] p50kombi:
Did you even check this thread or the op?

Literally look two posts above you (hint, nkk71) .

No one can help you with just the information you provided.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] tron13:
ive boot 1st time to my HTC10 in twrp and ask me to allow modification, i sayn NOT ALLOW (to make a backup) after this i have to reboot in twrp and then i have to ALLOW modification but the message dont appear to me again, how can i enable the twrp modifications now?

thanks
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
"looks something like" nice description :cyclops:

Next time just post the recovery.log, but anyway:

If you check your recovery.log, then you'll probably find out that your external sd / otg aren't exFAT formatted, and therefore cannot handle the 4GB System Image size.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
TWRP -> Mount -> uncheck the Mount system partition read-only
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] 4rsenal:
It's a completely free card (32 GB) so no problem there. I solved by not backing up the system image (fairly sure I do not need it)
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] p50kombi:
It's irrespective whether you have enough space or not, if it isn't exFAT formatted you can't save files over 4gb
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Haldi4803:
System Image should be around 3.7gb

At least for the TW... Not sure how much bloat is included in the others ^^

I apologize, I did a search but should have looked more thoroughly. Fortunately nkk71 was able to help me with the information I provided.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
"System Image" has nothing to do with what's actually in there, it's a full partition backup, even if it's completely empty it will always be the full partition size: 4,009,754,624 bytes.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Haldi4803:
And the Fat32 Limit should be 4'294'967'296 bytes.

So System Image Backups to Fat32 always work.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] sjpritch25:
I've been a twrp user for some time now and thought i new enough to be dangerous. Now that this phone has encryption on by default. How is backup and restore? I only ask because I enter my pin to decrypt and do a backup. However, I wiped internal data to flash a test version of CM. Obviously, I couldn't do a restore because my phone isn't encrypted anymore. My question if i leave encryption on and do a backup. With current encryption the same, could i do a nandroid restore?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
Being encrypted or decrypted has nothing to do with being able to perform a restore. I'm not sure why you think you wouldn't be able to restore? Whether the device is encrypted or decrypted at this point is irrelevant. Backup and restore work fine.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
Restore doesn't work for me.

I did a complete backup before trying to install Beanstalk and R. Remix, and neither got past the boot animation.

Both times I had to do a fresh install of BadBoyz, because the restore that showed successful in TWRP, never booted.

It just turned into a black screen.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jollywhitefoot:
Sounds like you didn't restore boot. Dirty flash should have worked too if you made a backup of data prior to testing cm
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
I backed up and restored everything you can check, just to make sure, even though I'm sure you don't have to restore recovery.

A dirty flash does ultimately get you back up again, but it over writes system data, and gives me back apps I deleted, and erases xposed.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jollywhitefoot:
Well restoring System AND System Image is a problem. Also, there's no need to backup cache. And, like you said, backing up recovery isn't usually necessary.

A typical full backup is just System, Data, and Boot. System Image is only useful when backing up 100% stock in order to restore for an OTA later (laid out in the TWRP FAQ in the second post of this thread.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
Well, backing up Cache isn't usually necessary, but for people using Magisk that are mounting files in "cache mod" or "post-fs mode," files are in fact stored on /cache, making it important to backup and/or not wipe. Something to keep in mind ;).
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jollywhitefoot:
Thanks. Good information. I can always count on you to correct me! :D
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
That's what I had done before I was having issues. Then I tried backing up everything.

No matter what, it didn't matter.

First started with Viper ROM.

Maybe it has something to do with fingerprints.

I haven't tried a backup after disabling the fingerprint scanner.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Haldi4803:
-.- great... stuff just got more complicated....

btw, System Image does not work with compression? or compression algorythm is simply really inefficient?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
System Image is a dd'ed partition, not a tar, so there's nothing to compress. None of the non-tarred backed up partitions can be compressed.

"System" can be compressed just fine.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
Is there a video tutorial on how to back up and restore with this phone using TWRP?

I'm sure it would be very useful.

Things sure have changed since the OG Evo.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
The process for backing up and restoring in TWRP hasn't changed at all :confused:.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
Well, I'm telling you, it didn't restore for me after a full backup and trying to flash AOSP to no avail.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
So, let me get this straight... is this the "it doesn't work" post? but if you had a video of "it does work", then all would be OK? ... seriously :rolleyes:

please read the OP, and the last couple of pages, on how to report bugs... videos have nothing to do with it.

IF you want to know what's wrong (if anything) with TWRP, then you need to upload the information (hint: recovery.log), though "it works for me just fine"... sorry don't have a video of me clicking the restore button, then swiping :p
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
That's a nice post and all, and I hope you feel better, but I've been using TWRP since the OG EVO, EVO LTE, and M8.

I'm not ignorant of how to use it.

However, with the fingerprint scanner and encryption, it IS different.

So, you can get all uppity and act like some snob who just knows he knows more than everyone, or, you might could look into a little help.

I assure you, once more people look to try the AOSP ROM's, and then try to get back to stock, once Sprint and Verizon get some that work, you'll see more Posts.

Some have already popped up, trying to go from Viper to AOSP and back to stock.

It's happened 3 times for me, and I've had to do a clean install each time to get back to stock.

Hell, the first FAQ explains HOW this is a different device from previous HTC devices!
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
No one can help you because you haven't read the OP that tells you how to get help. That's the point [MENTION=2605798]nkk71[/MENTION] is making. Several of the posts prior to your initial post refer to this, so I'm not sure why you're responding that way.

Until you actually do your part to help fix the "issue" you seem to be "reporting," please don't make any further posts about it.

P.S. That part of the FAQ you're talking about is copy/pasted from the M9 and A9 threads....
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] afuller42:
All I have to say when switching between asap, stock, viper, and back and forth, have you formatted data even once? (not just wipe)

I have run into zero issues when doing that. Some things cannot flash over others.

Just curious.

Also IMO, if there's a RUU for your phone and backup is giving you such a problem, just do the RUU, you'll have the same result.

encryption hasn't been a issue since the first week,
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
Yes. Of course. I know the 101 of installing new ROM's. Clean and dirty flashing. Advanced wipe, data, system, both caches.

When I do a restore though, the device just sits on a black screen. I've tried backing up everything but cache and recovery, then I tried with all backed up.

It goes through the process with no errors, but when I reboot, I get the splash screen, then a black screen. That's why I didn't get a log.

When I tried to do a restore of Bad BOYZ, from Viper ROM, I had issues with needing a PIN.

From June....

"For some reason, you can set up fingerprint scanner and PIN on Bad Boyz, and not have an issue in TWRP.

Viper, you cannot enter TWRP or make any changes at all, if you set up fingerprint and PIN.

I haven't tried any others."

I'm getting to the point where I'm just going to have to back up the internal SD, then wipe it, in order to get things to work properly.

Are we sure that Sprint isn't somehow different when flashing between ROM's?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jmkarnai01:
Might as well chime in also. A sprint user here also and on 2 separate occasions I tried to restore the original backup I did when I first rooted and went s-off and also restore a copy of Lee's rom and the same will happen to me. It (both roms) restore fine but when I go to reboot system it just sits on the white HTC screen. I chalked it up to user error and did a fresh install but now I'm not so sure.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jollywhitefoot:
It's entirely possible. Nobody is saying that there definitely isn't an issue with twrp, but your refusal to post a recovery log is baffling and frustrating.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
[MENTION=4052806]mcwups1[/MENTION] did you already try ToDo what [MENTION=5801084]afuller42[/MENTION] posted. That would be to "format data" through TWRP prior to restoring, which is completely different to wiping it. This could indeed solve problems once done.

Regarding the fingerprint issue: there's a solution that can be found on XDA. Found it myself by using the search function on the entire XDA forum.

Okay, when i get some time this weekend i'll backup my current setup and try restoring an older backup. I'll pull the logs for you all.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
I explained why I didn't. It's time consuming to do it for schlitz and giggles.

I'll try this weekend.

Might even do it with a VIDEO as well.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jollywhitefoot:
Yeah, I hear you.

Do you understand what people are saying when they say format data as opposed to wipe? To format, you go into the wipe screen, then click the format data button and then type yes. That would be my first try.

Actually, my first try would be to remove some variables and backup and restore a sense-based rom. If that fails, then it increases the possibility that there is an issue with TWRP and Sprint devices.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
If you're talking about wiping my internal storage, yes, that works.

I just don't want to back up my internal SD every time I restore a backup.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jollywhitefoot:
I'm talking about formatting, not wiping. I guess you don't recognize the difference? It's very possible that's your problem.

In normal operation you don't have to format storage every time you restore. But it's possible you do when you go from an experimental aosp rom back to sense.

Anyway, good luck. I hope you get everything figured out.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] jmkarnai01:
For me that still didn't work on the restore. I tried the usual wipes and when didn't work I moved the backup to external and did a full wipe including all, and I mean all: data wipe, cleaned everything and still only to the white HTC screen. Like I said I chalked it up to my error buy this weekend I'll try to do it again if time allows due to this is my dd and the weekend is as busy as my workdays. I'll try to pull some logs on Sunday if the wife doesn't have many to do lists
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
YES! When you format, it completely wipes your internal sd card.

I NEVER had to do that before in TWRP to install ROM's, or restore backups.

If that's the case, then it HAS changed.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] nkk71:
Nice; you are able to post 3 or 4 pages, yet you still cannot press that little button that says "copy log", because that's a "waste of time" .... i guess, by that you mean:

"There is a bug / it doesn't work / etc...." fix it!

yet many are using it, and cannot reproduce your result

(btw, I'm not on Sprint so don't bother asking me that)

You

still nonetheless insist that the current version of TWRP has a bug, but still refuse to share any information, other than: "you're wasting my time, fix it, so I can use it, because I don't have time to press copy log"

which may only be a start, but a start nonetheless. but feel free to keep complaining.

At least we now know that if you do "format data" something changes and possibly works for you. I'm uncertain, as the only definitive statements in your quote are the capitalized words.

I still see no confirmation that "it does work" or it "still does not work".

But let me be honest, since you think i'm all uppidy etc.

Either post the relevant information, and everyone will be glad to help/debug/etc. or just stop.... this is a development thread, not a complaints' department.

[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
How about not talking to me?

You've apparently refused to read where others are having the same problem, and that I'd get to producing a log when I have a chance. I'm not going to go through that entire process again, since it takes hours to get back to normal, just for the hell of it.

You're only trying to make things personal, and not helping in the least.

I mentioned a problem, others have too, if you are just here for a pissing match, you're wasting your time.

I know on a message board, it's easy to be a ****, but try NOT to be. It may be more rewarding.

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------

What do you back up, and how do you restore?

Formatting Data completely wipes your internal sd, and I've NEVER had to do that before.

Apparently, the way I've been doing it since the inception of TWRP, has left me, and nothing has changed, even though it has, as witnessed by the first FAQ.

BTW, this all started because I saw sjpritch25's post on the 23rd, and responded to it. I didn't quote him, but that's who I was talking to.

Restore didn't work. A clean flash did. Not sure why I'd have to lose all my information on my internal by formatting, to restore a backup, when that's never been an issue.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Aldo101t:
I back up,when making a nandroid,system,data,boot. When I restore I select restore, select the backup to restore, hit restore.read FAQ#10. Might help.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] afuller42:
With this phone formatting data is required sometimes. Like going asop to sense. Even switching between some of the sense roms here I had issues with booting up or SD card problems until formatting was done.

It may be something you haven't had to do before but yes things have changed with encryption and such.

Without formatting you can get left overs of previous installs and other broken bits also it seems giving issues.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Aldo101t:
That could be. I've never flashed aosp yet.but if I did I'd be sure it's a build for my carrier first
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] mcwups1:
Thanks guys.

I know I'm not crazy.

Next time I try to flash another ROM, I'll video it and get logs.

Only time I had to format, is when I tried to go from Viper to Bad Boyz, because it wouldn't get rid of the PIN.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SacredDeviL666:
next time if you want to remove a pin/pattern from a backup after you restored you could try this... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66347165&postcount=2 question #10

video is totally a waste of time... but yes logs :good:

i keep swapping between aosp and sense roms and some more stuff and twrp just worked fine with encryption so far :) not on this device alone but on hammerhead and sturgeon as well so far...

Hey guys/girls this is my first htc device so bare with me.

I have s-off - unlocked root seems to be working for titanium backup, but I have a problem installing xposed.

I attached my log file below, I'm not sure why but "Allowing write" in twrp won't help. And when it does work, or if I sideload the zip, xposed.apk

cries that I need to install the zip.. Grabbing the newest xposed-v86-sdk23-arm64 could it be a bad upload?

Running with:

- BETA-SuperSU-v2.77-20160827190633

- twrp-3.0.2-6-pme

My backups work okay so I'm not sure what the problem is..

Should I just Sideload everything maybe?
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] Captain_Throwback:
Something is up with your /system partition. Can you try repairing the partition in TWRP? (Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Check "System" -> Press Repair/Change button)

If you could post the log after you do that, we can see what it reports. If the repair fails, that'll tell you something is wrong.
[HTC 10 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Developm] SkyboneNoya:
Thanks for the quick response.

I went in, hit home after I got to the ext2 ext4 etc.

I did use this supersu "BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-forceencrypt" before using the one mentioned above, where I realized it wasn't working.

I guess I should really try go back to stock "unlocked" backup, but if I don't have to go through the whole song and dance it would be nice. :good:
