Oh he's the one who built it. Thanks again
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] erazer14:
I am having issues with the MTP whenever I select file transfer the device doesn't show up in the file system but on linux lsusb indicates the device is connected I got a workaround by going into twrp and then enable and disable MTP but after using orfox the workaround doesn't help I can't connect my device to pc as MTP anymore

Digging into orfox logs I found this error

E:|MTP] Failed to start usb driver!l

Can anybody tell me why is this happening is this an issue with the rom or the device itself.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] krasCGQ:
Which build you're on?
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] erazer14:
R10.1_6-stable

But these MTP issues are happening irrespective of the recovery or rom I think it has something to do with the drivers on the phone
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] krasCGQ:
I only support my own builds. That sounds OrangeFox to me.

Request to make a new TWRP

Posting here only to request [MENTION=6589753]krasCGQ[/MENTION] to make a new TWRP with the latest recovery changes / commits, decryption ability etc., while retaining full USB OTG functionality. I believe the latter is important to many people. Many thanks in advance.

OrangeFox-R10.1_7-Stable-X00T.zip does not mount USB OTG (tried many ways mentioned at several places on the Internet) - neither in recovery nor in booted ROM. My post here might be of relevance. Screenshot added for additional reference. Wonder if the device tree is the cause of the issue. Reverting to OrangeFox-R10.1_6-Stable-X00T.zip restores USB OTG functionality.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] krasCGQ:
Pushed one, but I limit it temporarily at Telegram scope for wider testing. Decryption as always only works on latest stock as well as custom ROMs with same security patch as TWRP.

I'll publish here in few days so stay tuned in that case.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] m0han:
waiting to try your new twrp. just a couple of questions; hope you'll address them in the new twrp and post in the thread.

(1) does usb otg work - both in recovery and booted rom - with your soon-to-be-released twrp?

(2) how about full nandroid backup and *full* restore - do they both work flawlessly? i always face bootloop while doing *full* restore of nandroid backup. restoring data alone works sometime. is there a proper workaround?
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Vvk380:
(2)after u restore full backup..dirty flash same rom to resolve boot loop
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] krasCGQ:
I'll just answer this since second one is already answered: yes (for TWRP side), since I'm using stock Asus import with it.

First of all thank you for your hard work! We appreciate it so much ? Can I ask why we pro m1 owners don't have official twrp? And what do you think is the problem when I try to flash custom rom I always get error when I followed their instructions such as wiping everything and ended up with no OS installed. I got error 7 and 11 on two different roms. But when coming from stock rom then install custom rom it went successfully though I suffered a lot of bugs. Currently figuring out the right way to clean install. My last time messing with custom rom was 3 years ago and had experince for 8 years. Messing with recovery is very different than before. PS. I was on 058 stock then tried to install pie custom rom. Was using 3.4.0 provided by user a week ago in havoc thread. Not sure if it's the same as yours. Is it safe?

Adding a detached GPG signature together with releases is my latest attempt to ensure that it's easy to detect tampered packages, since it'll be verified against one of my GPG public keys.

Anything downloaded from my sources from now on will always pass such verification, unless you don't have my keys imported :p

About flashing, if you're moving between ROMs, always do a wipe of system and vendor before proceeding. Also, make sure package you're flashing isn't corrupted...

I can't promise anything; screen and digitizer start to break :(
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Jaggerjacquez:
Funny, isn't it? Zenfone Max M1 and Max Pro M2 got Official release of TWRP while Pro M1 didn't!!!!!!!!!!!! And someone would wonder WHY. Hmm. :rolleyes:
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] merslei:
I have to reflash then just to be on the safe side. Can you give steps on how to verify your keys on your second post? I don't really know how to do it. I'm in windows 10. Also, are your twrp project open source?

Strangely nothing good happening to me when I followed their instructions. So i do it the traditional way. From stock Oreo working my way up to Pie.

I have question I hope you don't mind helping. Let's say I was in 058 and had flashed RR pie. I want to switch to LR. Do I just wipe system and vendor? No need to factory reset, then flash the new rom? From what i understand some roms require you to be in stock? Is there a way to flash stock PIE directly from PIE custom rom? My traditional way took more than an hour to finish all the process. I was hoping like in Jellybean I can jump directly to Lollipop. Is it possible for Pie? Or do we have fastboot pie stock?

---------- Post added at 05:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ----------

Yeah. First thing I did was to search but nothing can be found. Strange that M1 seems to have more development than M2. I was debating whether to buy that or this one.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] krasCGQ:
1. For Windows, I can't. But for Linux users, it's on 3rd post.

2. Everything is published on GitHub organization.

Common sense: clean flash required, which involves resetting the device.

And you can just skip going to stock before flashing custom ROMs, which I did on X00T; just remember proper firmware combination. However, I once in a while, on other devices, reflashed stock firmware just to have a very clean system before reflashing custom ROMs.

Sir if you don't mind, I have one request.. You have 3.18 based common kernel, 4.9 based common kernel but you have stopped 4.4 based common kernel development..

For land (Redmi 3S), I always merge your 3.18 (now 4.9) common kernel source blindly bcz I know It'll work.. But now with X00T, I can't find your 4.4 based active common kernel source.. I really love your common kernel development..

Sir if possible plz start your 4.4 common development again.. It will be very helpful for new developers like me..

Thanks a lot sir.. Lots of love.. ❤️❤️❤️

That's what I did format and wipe everything, but why when I used your 3.4.1.0 I got error failed to unmount /system device or resource is busy when trying to wipe system and vendor or flash magisk, how to fix this? I tried to use your 3.3.1.0 I can mount unmount system but then met with 0mb storage, there's nothing inside folders. only root folders without files. Can you please advise me what to do. When I used the one provided by other user it worked flawlessly but then the size is different to yours. Nothing works. OTG also doesn't get recognize

This is already me coming from clean flash. I'm afraid I have to setup again from the start.. Had done it at least more than five times because of various bugs....
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] m0han:
is there any reason for removing the option to allow partitions to be backed up? any particular benefit to backing up 'images'?

tried this twrp. encountered some 'issues'. not sure if this is affects the sanctity of the backup. hope [MENTION=6589753]krasCGQ[/MENTION] would clarify.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] merslei:
I'm on Pie, never tried 10 nor plan to try so I believe twrp version in this thread is enough BUT

I don't know why all the versions I've tried from the OP ended up with different errors on each different versions. It's unusable for me. One thing I love about OP's twrp is it is very secure it asks for passcode before proceeding to recovery but unusable. Reverted to the one you provided but I'm not sure who made that but it is working flawlessly albeit won't let me install custom rom directly. I'm just concerned about security issue. Is it signed or what? Also anyone can access it. It lacks security feature.. this is cons of not having official twrp
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] krasCGQ:
Depends ™

1. I might add option to backup persist image if it's ever necessary.

2. asusfw partition is pretty much meaningless for us since it contains only regulatory information which will be shown on stock depending your device region.

I always see option to "clone" entire image as a better choice than creating a compressed archive of whole content of partition. Providing option to only backup images of both partitions sure will decrease likelihood of people trying to backup both system and system image, resulting in wasted space.

By installing TWRP itself, you're already opening yourself into having your data stolen by whoever steals your phone, unless you encrypt it with non-default password...

Official and unofficial are just tags, depend on whoever maintains it.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Tianhe:
Persist backup is desirable IMO, helps if ever there is the problem of lost MAC, IMEI, Wifi broken etc. while flashing stuff.

Sometimes a device restores only either one - System or System image and bootloops if the other one is used. Trust me, I have faced this issue on A/B devices. Better to create a full TWRP backup and restore partition-wise ( I can always copy the TWRP backup to external HDD to free phone memory)

I have a request can you please roll the next update with lockscreen on twrp I know that it wont completely secure my phone as it will still be hack able by usb port but If someone tries to delete the data from twrp it is easy for them. So maybe a lock screen is good idea. Plus if we forget the password we can flash the twrp again and wont lose any date except twrp setting.
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Xda user 101:
I have a really important questing how can i delete all the files of this twrp from system in which folder are they in root directory (so I can delete them manually) I recently unbricked my phone and was rooting again. When I installed the twrp it got the same setting that I used before hard bricking even when the entire system was new. It is taking around 3 gb space because now I get 50.6 gb internal storage instead of 53.something.

I remembered when I used old Twrp my internal was around 53 gb So to conform I installed the old Twrp but it wasn't able to receive my touch. And I have used that old twrp when I rooted the phone first time so It should work. But the Twrp files are not letting it work so I want to delete all Its file and Install the old Twrp for some usage.

Please help dev [MENTION=6589753]krasCGQ[/MENTION] or anyone with the knowledge where I should look for the files will be really helpful.

Thanks in advance

HELP! HELP! HELP!

Does ANYONE have the "recovery.sig" for zenfone max Pro M1 or is there a way to creat it for recovery.img?

The phone is bricked no recovery and system not booting only chance is EDL and fastboot.

I tried qfil but I always got sahara fail ERROR.

Fastboot is working but LOCKED only "fastboot update update.zip" works. I manage to create "android-info.txt" from "fastboot getvar all" I just chose some text. and able to flash *.img but *.sig is missing.

TWRP 3.4.0-0: failed to unmount /system

I can confirm that there is an issue with unmounting /system partition in 3.4.0. The /system is mounted after boot and there are `failed to unmount /system (device or resource busy)` errors in the console. I forced unmounting with `umount -l`, but wasn't able to wipe /system after this due to `mke4fs` (or similar) errors. After downgrading to TWRP 3.3.1 both unmounting and wiping succeded without errors. I then installed 3.4.0 again and it was also able to unmount/wipe the (empty at this point) system partition, but after I installed LineageOS the error with unmounting /system in 3.4.0 came back.

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] srslye:
Lock sim card option isn't enabled, but I've always by default had to enter a pin after every boot to use the sim. Maybe my sim card is super old. I guess I'll have to only occasionally install other roms, because then I have to install my daily driver fresh each time.

Thank you for your contribution.

Apart of OrangeFox being new and unknown for me, according with your website there are no official recovery image for ZB602KL (or X00TD).
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] D0CT0RFATE:
Hey, apart from OrangeFox having more features than TWRP, there also exists an official version of the recovery image with a June update. It's not my website by the way, but i did use this Recovery to flash my current custom ROM and it worked flawlessy.

Check the attachment and flash that version (R11.1).

However, do check with this ROM's maintainers or any user, if they've used OrangeFox to flash the ROM because I don't use this.

Hi sir. Noob question here if ya dnt mind: I'm on stock oreo 340, and was wondering if I could use Orfox R11.0_3 (once I've unlocked BL ofcourse).

The reason I want Orfox specifically is to be able to back up partitions (persist in particular) b4 doing any mods. Like, is this version backward-compatible with oreo?

Thanks in advance
