Don't give up already.you should have tested nandroid backup retoring working or not.

Let me explain. A full nadroid backup restore of PIE rom don't work on orange 8.1. it boot loops. So becoming to any verdict I tested masik 1.2 full backup (cache,data, system,boot,vendor,bootlogo) and after restoring it booted with system ui crashed and started random reboot.eventually at boot loop. Seems mysterious right.. kindly look into tha build. Switched to another recovery

If it helped ;p here's another story the backup made by orange 8.1 can be successfully restored by batik or stock twrp but not with orange 8.1

I'm annoyed cuz nandroid backup is our failsafe. When it fails we donno what to do next but start from scratch.

Orangefox

Hi, so i am completely new to flashing.

I posted initially on LOS thread some questions how to flash that rom but after further research I have the fllowing questions (also i was not aware of orangefox project).

So I am on MIUI 10 Global Stable (my understand its ARB 4).

1st post installation for Orangefox is: fastboot to TWRP

So my understanding is: i unlock the bootloader, then flash the dummy image and twrp and reboot in recovery on the phone, but how to i copy orangefox to the phone?

Also, I intend to install PIE Extended rom but might jump between 8.1's Resurrection Remix and AOSP Extended.

Can i use Orangefox for these roms? I do not intend to go back to MIUI because i hate version 10 and have some issues with battery and bugs. If anything in future i would go back to the last stable version 9 global (which my understand its ARB 4).

Just need some basic guidelines to not brick the phone.

If someone could give me a bullet point based step by step i would greatly appreciated.

Thanks

some questions

Thanks Darth.

I checked that link, few questions if you dont mind:

8. Change to the adb directory on your PC <-- I assume i can open Power Sheld from the adb directory folder correct?

Also, there is no problem going from MIUI 10 (ARB4) directly to a PIE rom correct? or do i need to do anything as i read somewhere the internal storage is encripted and shows zero space available?

Thanks again
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] DarthJabba9:
Yes. BTW, #7 answers that.

The encryption should not be an issue with OrangeFox. As for ARB4, I don't know - but I wouldn't think that it should be an issue.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] gargant:
Hello,

i'm new to custom rom & recoveries world.

As far as i can see, It look like the main recovery project are red wolf recovery and orangefox recovery (and both use twrp code)

I did read the feature least, but it doesn't really help me to make a choice, as i don't understand all subtlety.

Is there some major difference that i should know (and understand) to choose between those two recovery ?

Or it will make no real difference, i pick one and stick with it ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] lifes_alpha_tester:
The most stable recovery is twrp. This is also the most recommended, but twrp gives just the basic functionality of a recovery. But in case you wanna go for more advanced and more features, then you can try OrangeFox or RedWolf Recovery. They are both based on twrp. To give an example, twrp is like linux and RedWolf and OrangeGox are like different distros of linux. Get it ?

Hi there [MENTION=5850987]DarthJabba9[/MENTION]!

I have been doing a lot of backups and restores using Orange Fox r8.1 in my whyred and it is working great. :good:

There is one minor problem I found. If you try to use "Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Select Data Partition -> Partition Options -> Repair FS" it fails.

Logs are enclosed. If you need anything else just let me know.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] DarthJabba9:
It seems to me that you have issues with your storage media that need to be addressed by manual interventions

Simple option:

format data - this should get rid of all disk errors (I am sure you know to

backup everything, including internal storage

, before trying this)

Fiddly - but far easier - option

: open an adb shell and run "e2fsck" without the "-p" argument, and deal manually with each error that it throws up; you need to read the manuals on e2fsck before doing this.

Example of "fiddly" option:

adb shell
umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p64
e2fsck -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p64
reboot recovery
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] svbarbosa:
Yes, the "backup internal storage" is a lifesaver in situations like this.

I am testing several roms. After I made my post here I moved on to the next rom and did a wipe data.

When trying the "fsck" with adb it run ok. So did the [Repair Data].

The problem is gone. Anyway thanks for the quick reply. :good::good:

He is referring to his thread and this bug report:

https://github.com/TeamWin/Team-Win-Recovery-Project/issues/1314

Someone said, about TWRP:

I found that the vendor blob file of TRWP is too outdated to support my device. The vendor blob file should be updated from this repo, which contains MIUI's latest vendor blob file.

He is asking if you have made some updates regarding that.

PS: I just installed OrangeFox, for testing :)

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:41 PM ----------

Could you tell me how come you had the idea to request for PIN OR Pattern during boot in this OrangeFox?

Because I suffered the issue for months in TWRP that it asks me for a pattern while I had set a pin.

My only workaround in TWRP was to adb shell and twrp decrypt '12345' (the pin), which then would unlock TWRP gui (and decrypt /data).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] DarthJabba9:
Probably. I was simply making the point that this is not a problem that OrangeFox has experienced.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] DarthJabba9:
We did not and do not have the idea. There is no issue with OrangeFox and pins/patterns. If you are asked for one (without having password-protected OrangeFox itself) then check your ROM and your ROM security settings.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] htchd2sucks:
Sure, I totally understand, he poorly explained and lacked the reference...

I tried to help him in his Q/A thread and I tried to help TWRP guy fixing that black screen issue (that several are having, all with new screen) and other TWRP related issues.

That is why as soon as as saw both your posts, I added information.

https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-5-pro/help/boot-twrp-t3858125

We know it's not OrangeFOX related issue :)

I think his question should have been: are you aware of any updates in blobs or anything updated which would support the new screen on that device... something like that!

---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 PM ----------

Ok let me clarify:

When I boot OrangeFOX it prompts me for either the PIN or the PATTERN to unlock the phone.

That's great. And that's unusual too because in TWRP it asks for one or another. In the context, I do have issue with TWRP because it is asking me to decrypt usng a PATTERN, and since I never set one, i'm kind of locked.

As I said, I can workaround to decrypt /data in twrp using commandline.

So back to my question is: how come you had this good idea to ask for EITHER pin or PATTERN?

PS: It's indeed related to Secure Boot in android.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] DarthJabba9:
OK, I think I understand you now. We were simply by responding to issues that were reported by users. It was clear what was the underlying problem - and once the underlying problem was fixed, everything worked better.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] htchd2sucks:
Thanks!

Ok so several others reported the issue, it's funny, I only saw 2-3 persons reporting that issue before, I guess many more were having it but went silent!

It's good job though, it's removing the issue at "recovery level" (I know it very well, coming from TWRP and having done many hours in tests and cleanflashes).

I'm very curious on the actual root cause though, why it's only asking for PIN or PATTERN, I guess it's a question for TWRP guy... I went deep and found it might be related to locksettings.db but never actual found the root cause.

Thanks for your post.

I've been trying to find out some more intelligible instructions for this S3 fix for about 2 months. I don't have working knowledge of Linux but I download Debian 9 to run from a CD-Rom and didn't get very far with it.

From what you write I should either install to hard disk or run in a VM environment. However, I'm still not sure of the commands I need to issue, perhaps could be a little more explicit for novice.

Also my device is the GT-i9305 4g version. I extracted the boot file from the firmware but where/how can I get the bugfree firmware as I wouldn't want to chance the standard S3 firmware?
