Ok then, I will try this firmwares: https://xdaforums.com/g4/general/guide-lg-g4-stock-firmware-to-stock-kdz-t3107848

Consider that ARB is 3, which firmware would be the correct one to use?

Edit: now after a pair of boots it started to get download mode in a random way, sometimes it does and sometimes it does not, could it be because I used a ARB 1 extrated kdz?

I've recently discovered this cool feature of unlocking the phone by just saying "OK Google" but it doesn't work.

I set up everything and turned on the Voice Match option but it doesn't unlock. I tried to clear the cache and I tried to retrain the voice options multiple times but still it doesn't even vibrate when I say "OK Google". Absolutely nothing happens.

When is Nokia going to release the kernel source for the Nokia 3 ?

It would be of much help if Nokia will give out the sources for aftermarket development.

If u by any means get hands on it, please kindly share.
[Nokia 3 Questions & Answers] SkaboXD:
Nokia mostly don't give a **** about customers, so no kernel source
[Nokia 3 Questions & Answers] iykeDROID™:
Yeah I know but it would be good enough to ask them.

I was previously on a Motorola device(Moto E4-woods) the mtk variant, which we had to ask for kernel source before the released it.

Am currently trying to work on custom Roms for Nokia 3, but going with stock kernel isn't enough.

I own a Zuk Z2, on it the decryption problem was caused by unaligned/updated vendor blobs. I hope this can give you an hint on how to fix decryption.

You tried with a password? Try with factory reset (not wipe data) and it should work... Note that you will lose data so be sure to copy it somewhere first.

Thank you!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] rm43115:
Hello trax7,

first of all ... many, many, many thanks for the provision of a current TWRP !!!!!

I searched for it so long !!!

For the moment I found three things for need of improvement:

1. When going into Recovery, the purple lamp (at the top of the case) does not light up.

2. Double touch the screen, doesn't wake up / switch on the screen again.

3. When starting a backup, I get five error messages:

unable to locate /persistent partition for backup calculations,

unable to locate /misc partition for backup calculation,

unable to locate /firmware partition for backup calculation,

unable to locate /persist partition for backup calculation,

unable to locate /ta partition for backup calculation,
​

... but the backup of the five partitions "boot, cache, data, recovery and system" runs through error-free.

However - I'm glad that we have became a current TWRP for our device!

And if one day the decryption works, I will be happy!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] trax7:
That's weird... I haven't experienced any of those bugs :confused: Maaybe just the purple lamp but I haven't even paid attention to that lol

Edit: Yes, purple LED does not light up. However the recovery did not complain at all during backups and locking and unlocking the screen is just fine. Are you using E5823 or E5803?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] jw96:
What about encrypted data partition. Is it possible to fix decrypting?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] trax7:
At the moment no, but you can try and test whether it picks it up after a factory reset... Backup ur data tho.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] rm43115:
Ha, last night I found the problem for the strange error messages during the backup (it's not a problem of your TWRP-version):

In the .TWRPS file these partitions (persist, persistent, misc, firmware, ta) are still registered for backup from the old TWRP-version I used before.

I just had deleted the .TWRPS file and have created it again ... AND ... ERROR GONE!

I use E5823, but I would not call the problems with the violet lamp and the double-touch-unlock-screen an error ... rather a nice-to-have feature.

I mean, do not waste time with these banalities, if you do not know the solution.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] rm43115:
USB OTG storage support

Hello trax7,

at the coming weekend I want to test the decryption of the TWRP - during preparation I realize that "USB OTG storage support" is missing.

Is it possible to implement "USB OTG storage support"?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] GreyLeshy:
[MENTION=222324]Trax[/MENTION] , add to fstab

/usb-otg auto /dev/block/sda1 /dev/block/sda
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] TwrpBuilder:
Decryption can't be achieved by only password. It requires a factory reset (not wipe data!). This is a security measure and each Android device creates their own password for encrypted data partition. So any other passwords such as lock screen security pin won't work. All ways go to performing a factory reset. In addition, in order not to have encrypted data partition again, fstab inside boot image must be modified.

Yes, it is possible. Your device support OTG on it's stock fstab. After we get our works done, we will look onto this too!

Stay tuned!

But ... you can not use USB device for BACKUP and RESTORE, because it's not selectable as a storage.

[MENTION=4644172]trax7[/MENTION]: It works - thanks!

Now - that backup and restore from USB device works - I can test tomorrow the decryption - without and with factory reset on previcous LineageOS installation and without and with factory reset on a newly installed LineageOS.

[MENTION=8041676]GreyLeshy[/MENTION]: Obviously you have the TWRP code fully under control. Is decryption so difficult to implement because you do not enable it in your TWRP?
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] rm43115:
Here are my results from the weekend.

For the sake of simplicity, I will list all my problems together (both TWRP and LineageOS problems) ... maybe someone knows a solution for one or the other problems.

All problems remained unchanged without and with Factory Reset, as well as with LineageOS reinstallation (with full wipe Boot, Cache, Data and System partition) without and with Factory Reset.

Problems:

1. TWRP can not decrypt the data partition.

2. With encrypted data partition, my mobile phone does not work under LineageOS.

3. All actions in the GUI of LineageOS to be subsequently executed under TWRP (like Factory Reset and LineageOS Update) show no reaction, i.e. do not do anything. No TWRP is started and nothing is executed.

4. My hotspot under LineageOS has connection problems.

In the end I have restored my Z5c with Restore and will omit the encryption unfortunately first.

The Backup and Restore (also from an USB device) works fine with this TWRP.

Many thanks to trax7, GrayLeshy and TwrpBuilder for their work!

Conclusion: Except for encryption, the TWRP works very well !!!

[MENTION=8041676]GreyLeshy[/MENTION]: The TWRP of trax7 and TwrpBuilder has an advantage over your TWRP - you can select the partition (i.e. boot or recovery) while flashing a new TWRP - your TWRP always wants to flash to the boot partition.

Thanks again to all for your work !!!

P.S.: Developers like you are the reason why I bought an "old" Z5c and not a current device. :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] GreyLeshy:
Yes, in my only choice boot flash, but it is not critical.

Hi there,

is it possible to add the recognition of digest-files with the file-ending (sorry, don't know the right name of it) md5sum to prevent twrp displaying an error like "no digest file found" if the file-ending is NOT md5?

It's because the build-system of LineageOS creates a digest file with md5sum as file-ending (i.e. lineage-14.1-20180219-UNOFFICIAL-suzuran.zip.md5sum)... ;)

Would be great! :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] trax7:
Sure, though it is a minor convenience fix so it is pretty low on the things to do. Encryption is priority now. What you could do is rename md5sum to md5 and see if it works. :)
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Berni-0815:
No problem.

That's working, yes!

[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] Berni-0815:
I'm using this version for a while now and I've often cleaned cache/dalvik and data (standard factory reset [just ticked wipe and confirmed]) and I don't see such problems. The difference seems to be, I'm using LineageOS, not stock!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] trax7:
Wiping is the same, regardless of installed system (if partition layout stays the same, of course). Could you try just wiping Cache or wiping Cache + Dalvik from the menus to see whether it makes a difference? :)

I've tried your build of TWRP before, but as noted in my topic about it, I've not been able to figure this out. I'm wondering if you may have an idea or something about what's going on.

If you can point me where logs are, I could probably pastebin those and see if it helps. Other than that, I've been at a loss on this since only factory resetting would ever allow me to flash a ROM or something before it just stops working again. Its funny, TWRP v3 always caused me issues, but v2 at 2.8.6/7 never did.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Android Development] dafrunk:
I am glad somebody is still working on this!

So first of all, thanks very much for your efforts to update TWRP!! I installed you latest build and LineageOS on top and I am pretty happy with the combination (who needs a new phone when a 3 year old is working so well and is being updated to latest security fixes?)

Regarding future I would like to underline that I (as others) am missing decryption as the key feature...in current encrypted state I can not perform LineageOS OTA updates any more (ends with an installation error) or is this not connected to the missing decryption in twrp??

If you want me to supply debugging information let me know how...I would be happy to help!

Best I can do is direct you to the official LineageOS thread. I haven't experienced anything like that myself and I haven't seen anyone else either.

Your best bet afaik would be to flash latest stock .54 and retry from there. This should eliminate any weird bugs that might be caused from a conflict that nobody can diagnose.

my problem is. I can install the TRWP "recovery_v3.2.1_02.05.2018.img". Then I will boot in the recovery, so do with the command " fastboot boot recovery.img". Nothing is happend, the blue LED still lights up and the screen is black. Then I turn off the phone - turened on, the screen is also black. It vibrates for an short time, that is. The reason why, I had the TRWP on the phone, I installed the lineageos 14.1 and the gapps for this phone, it also boot always into the TRWP. And nothing is happend.

At this moment I'm not able to find an seriously documentation to install the lineageos.

I need help for the installation. Maybe I have forgot something an inportend point. Thanks

• Turn the device off

• Hold the Volume Down + Power keys

• Release the keys when your device vibrates
