[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] Nandiman:
I just got the 8.1 Oreo update for my LG Q6 (LG-M700 model) and I am having so troubling issues. My biggest problem is battery usage. Google Play Services is by far highest battery user and I have noticed that when I restart the phone, the app is not excluded from the Power Saving Exclusions list, but after a short while, it switches to "Excluded" on its own and starts eating up the battery like crazy and it does not even show up in the list so I can turn the exclusion off. With Nougat I did not have these problems and battery life was ok.

Another issue is that the status bar icons and home buttons are very faded out, same with the on screen keyboard. I don't know if it's just a new look for Android or some hidden setting messing up.
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] aaronrey10:
Revert back to 7.1. I'm having issues with the update even if I factory reset to 8.1 still issues.
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] Nandiman:
I've installed the latest beta Google Play Services, and battery drain has improved somewhat, still testing though.
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] moreogthanu:
the status bar and nav bar icons fading out is a new thing in 8.1 personally i like it but that's my opinion and battery life for me has been the same as nougat
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] Nandiman:
After some more testing, I found that with the new Google Play Services, battery drain in standby is great, superb even, but under actual use is still terrible (every time I glance at the battery, it just dropped another percent, and that's just by browsing with Chrome). Does anyone know the proper settings for Google Play Services regrading permissions and such? What can I turn off? What has to remain on? That kind of stuff.
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] moreogthanu:
As far as I know the only permissions that don't have to be on are maybe camera or calendar
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] Nandiman:
Well, in my case I have Calendar, Contacts, Phone, SMS and Storage permissions on, "Draw over other apps" is Yes, "Modify system settings" and "Pictrue-in-picture" is No.
[LG Q6 Questions & Answers] moreogthanu:
Draw over other apps stays on so does modify system settings

Hi all,

We've worked with TeamWin to get an official release of TWRP for daisy released, and here it is! We're sponsoring continued development of TWRP for daisy and other devices, so reach out to me if you have any questions.

I have to thank Dees_Troy & TeamWin for putting in the effort to make this available for us - donate here to support them directly.

So, without further ado, here's the download link. Here's a link to the source.

Please make sure you're on the factory image. If you aren't, the instructions to do that are here. You will lose your data and you'll have to set up your phone again.

1. Enable developer options (your bootloader should still be unlocked)

2. adb reboot bootloader

3. fastboot boot twrp-daisy-3.2.3-0.img

4. Hit "Cancel" if you're prompted for a decrypt password

5. adb push ./twrp-installer-daisy-3.2.3-0.zip /sdcard

6. Run the install in TWRP to permanently install TWRP across both slots

7. Reboot (you can reboot afterwards to TWRP to verify it is there)

Thanks all - and feel free to post your experiences, questions, comments, and concerns.

❤️, Guava.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] tutankpusch:
adb says "adb: usage: push requires an argument" after using first command.

thanks for the effort though!
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
Oops - ad "/sdcard" to the end of that command. Missed that. I'll update the OP.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] :
I can't get past decryption, but I'll wait for a fixed version. Thanks for going to all this trouble!
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
Decryption is a Xiaomi issue...what do you mean by fixed version?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] :
So there's no fix? I can't have my phone secure at all? I thought this was a bug lol

TWRP encryption is how I ended up killing my Note 4X

How to install de TWRP inside TWRP.. im not finding the file.

And I used the command adb push...
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
Try adb push while TWRP is booted. It should get you past the pre-load issue.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] tutankpusch:
actually there was an error when installing twrp.zip from twrp:

"E:recv error un uevent

Unable to find partition for path '/cache'"

but it seems everything is working fine
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
When you're in the TWRP UI tap "Install" and select the twrp file you pushed (if you used the command above it should be in /sdcard)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
There isn't a cache partition on A/B devices, that error is fine.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] brunoliveh:
using the updated command

failed to copy './twrp-installer-daisy-3.2.3-0.zip' to '/sdcard': couldn't create file: Is a directory
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
If there's already stuff there you'll need to specify the filename as well
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] pacapona:
Great news!

-Is full encryption working?

-I don't want to loose magisk... how can i preserve it?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] :
Hey, that worked! And decryption works after a reboot. But now it's boot looping into TWRP? Did I lose all my data or is there a way to make it boot back into what was installed?

If I have to reinstall it's fine, but I'd like to know :P
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
That doesn't sound good. Did you factory reset after installing twrp? If so you will have lost data but the ROM should still be there.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] :
I didn't. I was checking the file system and all my files are there. The ROM is the one who's gone lol.

Can I flash a GSI and have it working again?

Edit: Hooking up USB and I can access storage. Copying stuff over just in case.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] d1ngh:
I've been able to install TWRP before a GSI with relative ease but I couldn't get it to boot properly (phh-treble). I've also been able to install TWRP after a GSI and it works just fine. What GSI are you using? I might be able to test it out pretty quickly.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] :
I was using stock Android, just with Magisk. Didn't factory reset because I wasn't using a GSI and thought it wouldn't be a problem.

I'm asking if now I can just flash a GSI and have the phone up and running again. It seems storage and everything is there and working fine.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] hossman:
You can downgrade no problem. Do yourself a favor and learn to live without twrp for now.. not worth the headache in my opinion.

Is the OP of this thread still maintaining this or is it abandoned or considered finished.

I would have thought at the very least, that mounting external sd card would have been addressed by now- it was working in unofficial twrp builds... Has anyone successfully restored a backup? Twrp was very buggy when I tried a while back
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Sunnykha:
TWRP issues

Considering the OP is not maintaining the thread or no attempt is being made to fix issues with the recovery. I believe the thread should be closed since the topic is misleading and almost everyone has had issues after installing the recovery.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Voodoojonny:
If you relocked your bootloader, re-unlock it! It always says that, if you relock your bl... Hope that helps!

I'm still wondering how this half baked build could ever reach official status.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Qufy:
Device is unlocked but I get message that I need to unlock it

It always says failed and that I need to unlock my device (bootloader is unlocked) when I run fastboot boot twrp-daisy-3.2.3-0.img
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Voodoojonny:
Did you try unlock it again? And can you boot up your system?

You could relock your bl and reunlock it again - perhaps that brings a solution...

But be careful and first check wheather you have everything done right under developer settings, such as ability to unlock and debugging.

Becouse if you - for example have installed magisk or another kernel modification, you will get the message "your system has been destroyed" - so at this point you have to be sure, you can unlock again!

I had this situation twice and could always reunlock, but perhaps I was lucky...

And re-unlocking your bl will wipe your device... so backup everything first!
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] joint.striker:
Damn... from what I've read so far I don't think I'll ever install TWRP again.

If it was an unnofficial build, I would factor that in as to why the bad experiences; wasn't expecting an official release to be so crappy.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] hossman:
At least you're reading and researching first... Lately most folks seem to be only asking for help after they f up.

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] thorin0815:
This thread should be closed. The build is far from beeing useable at all and I doubt it ever will get fixed.

Hi guys, my phone haven't the animation of charging battery when is swich off, I' ve the screen on with logo's android one.

Is it due to the unlocking of the bootloader?

I flash twrp, root the device with magisk, install substratum (now no theme installed) and xposed with gravitybox and whatsapp extension.

Thanx

My question now is if it will happen the same with rooted stock pie beta.

I don't know, but are there any module to flash that replace the animation in charge?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] shmaiz3r:

It seems so...

I want to look into the source code and try to fix this over Christmas, but I'm quite new to active development...

It would be nice to see a community effort to fix this. A working recovery would be so important for this great device. As I said, I'm ready to throw in my time and the little knowledge I have, but if others are willing to help, we will be faster... ;)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] foudroid:
Thank's for your contribution. We deserperally need this ! I'll help if i can !
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] viking777:
I'm afraid you can add me to the list of people that have semi-bricked their devices by trying to use this recovery. I did it exactly as directed and from a completely fresh Android Pie version, but got exactly the same result as everyone else here - no way to bypass encryption (not setting a password/pin did not help) and all partitions reading 0Mb once you boot twrp., so installing the TWRP zip is nigh on impossible. It took me a long time to find a way out of this mess, I ended up with a "Your system is destroyed" message on both slots A and B. This leads me to puzzle as to why this TWRP tries to install to both slots, surely the whole point of a 2 slot system is to install to one slot only, and if it fails the machine should be bootable from the other slot?

Anyhow, after much head scratching and searching I found this post that enabled me to reset to stock - https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78090832&postcount=427 . So I am just off there now to say thanks.

My advice fwiw don't try to use this recovery until it has been modified.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] foudroid:
Recovery work for me following OP guide ! Issue are restore backups cause bootloop,, i tried to restore only data partition, it worked but rom not recognize pattern i'v set, i had to delete pattern on TWRP file manager. Ext sdcatd not recognized ! Modifiyng the recovery fastab may fix this,.... I think !!!! Flashing img like boot and system is also OK !
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] opal06:
I have looked into recovery fstab and probably have fixed missing ext sd card... I am building it now and will test it later. I'll report back on that. Meanwhile, it would be important to find the cause for the restore bootloops... Anyone got a clue?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Voodoojonny:
Have you tried to restore after removing forced encryption in fstab.qcom in vendor/etc?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] opal06:
No, not yet. Currently I am trying to get the recovery to properly recognise all partitions. But I'll look into that once it's up and running. Thank you very much for your contribution :fingers-crossed:
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] rob420p:

[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Voodoojonny:
Never had problems with that, good that you found the problems, congrats...

But there are still problems with this twrp to be solved:

- extsdcard not working

- encryption on pie, when using oreo vendor and gsi

- everything for stock pie -> right now installing this on pie boot.img leads to "your system got destroyed"
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] viking777:
I didn't have an external sd card in when I posted about this, but I do now and I see you are correct, it is not recognised by twrp at all.

.

As for the 'system destroyed' message, that does seem to crop up a lot, but I am sure you know that you only need to flash 'patched_boot.img' again and it will not be destroyed any more - at least that was my experience. Pretty obvious that the twrp flashing is overwriting the boot loader as well as the recovery and of course it shouldn't do that, but then again it is a stupid idea putting them both on the same partition imho - you are just asking for that to happen.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] foudroid:
I think i found the bug while restoring backups !!! Restoring boot, data, system is OK ! I tried tsese one by one..

Did you solve the extsd not detected ???

Can someone please help.

I successfully installed TWRP and been using it on stock rom (V9.6.11.0.ODLMIFF) for a while now. Yesterday I installed an update of Viper4Android via Magisk like I did it always before. But my phone booted to TWRP. No matter what I try, the phone always boot in to TWRP.

Any solutions to this?

Thank you.

Don't know much about building twrp, but I believe this will only work on 8.1. I think a new twrp will need to be built using pie kernel? Just a guess
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] rob420p:
I'm pretty sure u are right
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] mac12m99:
Yes, the issue was "aboot" (aka bootloader), i think the new one still checks for official recovery even if device is unlocked.

I reflashed old one (dumped a long time ago from 9.6.4.0) and is fully working like on O (even encryption), here's the file:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603884024

Just reboot to fastboot and type:

fastboot flash aboot img

If you are on 8.1 and want to update simply don't flash aboot and stick with your's.

[MENTION=5669453]novArno[/MENTION] try again and flash aboot first

PS

phone always rebooted in TWRP no matter what i've tried :confused:, reflashing magisk fixed.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] LazyT:
Thank you very much!

Restored aboot from 9.6.11 and TWRP runs.
