Hi,

tested your recovery image with my installed LOS 15.1. (32bit) Device: XT1676 16GB P5

- storage decryption: OK

- backup support for persist and efs partitions and possibility to flash/backup logo boot image: OK

nice work, thx for you effort :)
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Akipe:
Thx for testing :) :good:
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] girishjangir7:
Akipe can u help us to build treble rom for cedric???
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] freeZbies:
Works nicely, thanks.

I just tested it and it decrypts my internal storage normally.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] freeZbies:
Just wish to come here and tell you guys to AVOID using this recovery, it seems to have a serious bug.

I just backed up my entire data partition (and enable digest verification) and restored the partition afterwards and the phone didn't boot.

Then I tried restoring it with verification enabled and the hashes didn't match.

In other words, for some reason, the generated backup was corrupt.

Of course I could make another test but it'll take just a long time to backup everything again, so if anyone wants to test it, feel free, but beware, you could have a hell of a headache finding out the backups you made were useless.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Akipe:
Hello ! Thank you for your test and sorry for your backup :(

I will test the backup system and add a warning
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Akipe:
I have backup up data partition from my TWRP, reboot one time to recovery, restore the data backup with digest verification, and reboot to LineageOS, with no problem (my rom is LineageOS 16.0 without encryption.)

I think there may be 2 errors (maybe more) :

1) There is a problem with data restore when encryption is enable. I can not test this scenario for now, but i will do it as soon as i can :)

2) Was your backup stored on your SD card? if so, it is possible that the sd card may be damaged, because it is too old or of poor quality (more info here : https://photo.stackexchange.com/questions/40489/what-causes-an-sd-card-to-go-corrupt )

if you have other information or other ideas, do not hesitate to share it!

if people want to participate, try to save the data partition and restore it, especially with the encrypted partition :):good::good:

be careful, make a backup of your data before test
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] freeZbies:
I agree it may be any of the 2 problems.

My data partition was indeed encrypted, and yes, my SD card is not what I would call genuine, though I think that's not the case since the card is relatively new and I never had any problem related to data corruption.

Anyways, thanks for your effort.
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Akipe:
I have test backup the data partition with encryption on LineageOS 16 (arm64), backup and restore work without issue :eek:

What ROM did you use when you made the backup, and with what arch (arm or arm64) ?
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] freeZbies:
I was on stock oreo, so its arm, not arm64
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] Akipe:
Oh ok, there are chances that's why the backup did not work :(.

This recovery is mainly intended for arm64 rom !
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] aragorn1203:
Just wanted to say that everything worked well for me in backing up and restoring the OmniROM, on both decrypted and encrypted phone.

Can you update it to latest TWRP?
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] nurvus:
forgot password to decrypt??

hi,

first, sorry if this is the wrong place to post this. right now, when i install the 64 bit twrp i am asked for a password to decrypt my data. i have tried some passwords i think i would have used, but those don't work and i get a message also saying that the default password didn't work - i haven't typed a default password, though, so i assume there is a default one that twrp tries automatically. in the past, i did try a rom requiring 64 bit twrp and i am guessing i set a password other then the default to encrypt/decrypt, but i went back to stock without issues so have not thought about the password and cannot remember what i would have used. i wanted to try dotos on my phone, which i assume requires 64 twrp because i got error 255 when i tried to flash without twrp64. so i installed twrp64 but cannot get any further. so here are my questions:

is there any way to decrypt the data if i forgot my password?

if not, can i format the data while encrypted to install the new rom? if i can do that, what should i back up? i have pictures and other necessary files backed up, so i am not worried about completely wiping the phone to start over. however, should i back anything else up before formatting? do i need to worry about losing imei or losing any partitions that would make phone inoperable or not have any signal? should i back up with twrp64 or the non-64 bit twrp currently installed? any help or point in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

tia,

nurvus
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] TheFixItMan:
You need to format data

Push back button when it asks for decrypt

Goto wipe and select the option on the right to format data

This will erase everything on internal storage so copy any files you want to keep to pc first (pictures music etc)

Once formatted data restart back to recovery to check encryption has been removed and data partition is mountable

TWRP backups do not save personal files (pictures music etc) They only backup data and system files (and other named partitions)

Once you have flashed a new rom you can encrypt again if you want to via the security settings menu in phone settings
[Moto G5 Questions & Answers] nurvus:
thanks for the quick response! and just for clarification and for me to be sure, should i back up any partitions before formatting? right now i have 32 (or non64 i guess) bit twrp installed, stock rom and bootloader unlocked. do i need to take any precautions with data/imei/signal before reinstalling twrp64, formatting data, and installing a new rom? if it matters any i have the international version of the moto g5. thanks again!!

Anyone know how to maintain both, network speed and notification icons in the status bar?
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] bobo have a dream:
Hello, you can open Settings > Display > More Display Settings > Display Real-time Network Speed.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] themissionimpossible:
You might choose to show only very few system icons (if any) so to free some space for network speed and notifications.

For this task you might use the System UI tuner as described here:

Hi, I'm about hours to jump from my window.

I wanted to flash EMUI 9 official C432 firmware, but I did it with HuRU so the compilation number was bad. I tried again with the official EMUI 9 beta update "The TOOL", but at some point TWRP lost conection with my PC, so as a dumb guy, I reseted the Developer Options, and the "Unlock OEM" option was greyed out and couldn't enable it.

So I rebooted to TWRP and made a Factory wipe, but I kept having problems with my pc detecting my phone. (I tried changing usb cable and port, reinstalling drivers, erasing all USB devices, etc). So I dont know why I did a Wipe Data partition, but it took so long that I turned off my phone.

So now, here is my problem/s:

>Bootloader unlocked/FRP Locked

>Constant Bootloop, nor OS or recovery works

>As I wiped Data partition, OS and TWRP or any recovery is not available (maybe?)

>As I have FRP Locked, I can't install any recovery nor .img (when I try to flash anything it says: "FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)"

>Also I installed Magisk, so when I run command to LOCK bootloader, it says that there is root: "FAILED (remote: root type is risk)"

fastboot data, maybe could help:

Only thing is to change motherboard..

You should go to huawei service.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] forever_lol:
If i were you i would try to find a way to downgrade to oreo using usb-otg method before going to hw service.

Many people report "activate oem unlock" being greyed out. I've noticed that too when i was on 9.0.163 and wiped my phone (it was active before factory reset) . It looks like this setting is simply inactive in pie. Downgrade to oreo is the only solution.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] draligus:
it is impossible to install anything - any firmware..
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] forever_lol:
1. Have you ever tried installation with sd card (usb otg)?

2. Another thing is trying to contact funky huawei. People with similar problems got their devices fixed without having to switch mainboard.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Deleted member 6703605:
No, I havn't. Do I need to use a flash drive and connect it with an otg cable?

Yes I could contact FH but I don't have access even to recovery nor erecovery.

Also, If I choose to fix it with Huawei Service I can't because in my country there is not service for P20 PRO. So i'm dead.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] forever_lol:
1) yes indeed. I use micro sd card and usb adapter for that purpose.

2) it's worth to ask anyway.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Deleted member 6703605:
So I'll buy and OTG-USB cable so I can use this.

I recently requested for an FRP Unlock Code with this program: Huawe FRP Tool, and used it, but now phone keeps rebooting trying to get into recovery and doesn't even get into fastboot mode. I think this is the end.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] forever_lol:
Sorry too hear that man. I hope you'll find a way to fix it.
[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] Deleted member 6703605:
Trying to do everything fast I f*ked up. Anyway, I think I learned the lesson not to go that far and settle a little bit. Anyway, don't use FRP Unlock tool, at least if you are bricked.

I think the last solution is to switch mainboard, but anyway I can't get it in my country, so Idk

i also have this problem, have send it to service centre here in The Netherlands.

They could repair it, with replacing the motherboard for 450 euro.

[Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers] raphael_sh:
Hello.

Registered to report a successful repair after a manual firmware upgrade to EMUI 9.

After the update, I made a reset and got a brick.

Bootloader and FRP after updating blocked. He reset the phone, got a brick.

In funkyhuawei [x] club, he paid $ 18.00 USD to restore the brick using the eRecovery method. This method did not work. I made a request for a refund, they did NOT return the money. I do not recommend to contact this organization.

The problem was solved by the official corporate service center of Huawei in Moscow. They restored the firmware in my device. Service cost $ 12USD.

took 1 hour of time.

There is no need to change the motherboard.

Thanks to all.

Any news from how we can install the Yota3+ rom to Yota3 ?
[YotaPhone 3 Questions & Answers] radioranger:
I am still trying to figure a few things out. Can someone please help me or direct me to the proper thread? >> I purchased a Yota Phone 3 from Ali Express. Although this was stated to be an "international version" -- it appears to just be a regular android nougat OS and it has none of the apps that make the Yota platform unique. My understanding is that the Yota 3+ is the latest version -- international -- using android 8 and has the Yota guide and apps. Is this correct? Finally, is it possible to put the newer android 8 version onto the Y3 and also get the special Y3+ apps? Does anyone understand me? And can anyone clarify for me what is going on?
[YotaPhone 3 Questions & Answers] skirep:
Let's see if I can explain it:

Yota 3 is the next release from Yotaphone from Yotaphon2, but it's for the Chinesse market only ( but it works outside this market too ). Then some Stores create a updated rom with some improvements for the supposedly International version rom. I think it's only some improvement for non chinesse apps.

Time later, the Yota company has made some work more, and they launches to the market a new version with Yota 3+. Supposedly with the same hardware, but it different mobile phone. Then... for the users of Yota3, as me, we want to take the rom from Yota3+ to install to the Yota3. Always it will be a unofficial, for the Yota company, it two different version of the mobile phone.... And not will launch an update to Yota3.
[YotaPhone 3 Questions & Answers] radioranger:
THANKS. Yes, it is very confusing. When I saw online that the phone had google play, and english, I thought that it must be the global version. However, this was a trick. It is the Yota 3 + that is the global version and has android 8. So, what I bought is not very good. It works. And I can use it to read stuff on the back screen. But it does not have the very unique and useful functions of what makes a yotaphone a yotaphone, if you know what I mean.

I am currently downloading the Yota3+ 'ROM', and I will ask my IT friend to help me to 'flash' it to my Y3 (if others on this site say it is safe to do so). I am not very familiar with this process, but I have been following the XDA site for a few years and hope that I can do this (with assistance). I am wondering why the shop where I bought the phone didn't just flash all of the Y3s that they wish to sell globally? Is there something within the Chinese Y3 that prevents Android 8 and Yota apps? Or does it have something to do with the proprietary nature of the software? Really wish there was a clear and common company to step up and deal with this product line.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdembiske:
First thing is check your kdz version that you have installed - use steadfasterX's SALT program to do this. It will also establish your ARB version (

must

be less than or equal to 2 - if not, i.e., if greater than 2, UsU is a no-go in your case). It will also let you know your GPT compatibility to show you what custom roms versions you can install.

Once that is ascertained, if you are rooted, re-install your stock LP kdz first (important), then proceed to upgrade to Marshmallow (MM) using LG Bridge first (download from LG site, it will sometimes work when OTA doesn't). If that doesn't work, you'll have to download an MM kdz for your model and carrier and upgrade it with LGUP-NEW. Then,

once you have stock MM installed, do at least a partial backup with SALT before proceeding to unlock

with steadfasterX's UsU method. Make sure you read and understand the OP completely there.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dharakv:
Is the ARB value stored as a variable? I'm guessing its just a variable that gets checked during a KDZ flash. If so, where is the ARB value stored, and why can't we just overwrite it with 0? Has anyone tried this already?

If it's not possible, can't we alter the ARB values of specific KDZ's? For example if your phone has ARB value 3 and you want you want to flash a KDZ with ARB value 1, can you change the ARB value of the KDZ from 1 to 3, so it won't brick?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sdembiske:
Suggest you read the OP in the UsU thread and pay particular attention to REQUIREMENTS #2.

If you really want to hard-brick your device then go ahead -- i.e., you cannot alter the arb value !!!
