I tested backup and restore, flashing files, wiping. All working on my side.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Thanks. We're at a bit of an impasse now. It seems that most people don't have an issue - but two people have reported serious issues, the occurrence of which there is no obvious explanation.

At this point, there are two options -

1) restore the download, but with a "health warning" about possible random bootloops, in the OP; or

2) close the project - until it is clear exactly why those problems happened, and a resolution is found for them

What do people think?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DahakePL:
I think that we have to find the root of the problem.

This project looks too good to just close so early.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] XDRdaniel:
No, resume the downloads! This is XDA after all

It's probably just a decryption issue, I'm sure if I start from scratch orangefox works just fine
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] teaken:
Let some more people try the install, maybe there was an issue with my phone.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Ok, thanks to [MENTION=3695102]teaken[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5147103]XDRdaniel[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5463272]DahakePL[/MENTION] for your inputs. Although I am still a bit concerned about these issues, I will probably resume the downloads - but with a stronger suggestion that people should back up their ROM before starting anything (that was already there as #0 in the installation instructions).

Before I build the next version, is anyone having any problems with the brightness settings?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] IAmWolf94:
Brightness settings works fine here. For now I have find just two minor issues: aroma file manager option (black screen) and haptic feedback doesn't work. Thanks for your efforts anyway.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Thanks. Does Aroma file manager start at all, or you just get a blank screen? Also, what is your display panel? You will find it listed if you hit the square button at the bottom right.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] IAmWolf94:
When I enable the option in settings and I tap on file manager the screen become blank. Anyway I can't find which display panel I have, sorry.

Kernel sources

By the way, the kernel for R9.0-1 was built from these sources: https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/dipper-p-oss
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] Gopena:
Installed per instructions - device not encrypted - USB File transfer does not seem to be working, folders come up with garbage file names and I cannot put anything file-wise onto the phone.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DahakePL:
Strange cause it works fine on my side
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
You got garbage file names without the phone being encrypted?

Edit: you can disregard, just noticed this was a PC screenshot and not from phone. My bad.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Send logs.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
I installed and was unable to get past OrangeFox recovery page. Did not get asked to unlock device encryption. Manual decryption not successful. Unable to boot to ROM after install. Unable to flash and recover ROM from TWRP. Now that my phone is in the state that I must "format all", I'm going to try and install from Orange Fox.

Edit: Found logs but won't do any good because I formatted and lost them. Only have the clean install log ATM.

Fresh install (no OS, twrp only) I have had zero issues with. Installed ROM via internal storage and adb sideload, all working well. The advanced features work well also. Love that I don't have to put in my password each time, but have the option to set one under advanced.

Mi Mix 2s Global XA Model - 64 ROM / 6 RAM.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
1. So you were encrypted before, and then you got stuck until you formatted your storage?

2. Were you able to restore your backups after formatting?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
1. Yes, exactly.

2. Unfortunately I was unable to restore completely. The restore "booted," but was never able to get past the bootanimation. Reverting back to TWRP and restoring also did not work however, but did allow the decryption.

I've found the key here is the format data, and [emoji521] [emoji1663], in all reality, is working just as TWRP always has for my device specifically. This isn't the first format data rodeo I've been through to get my recovery working properly on the device. Several times I've updated just TWRP and have had the same issues. The only times my backup has restored properly has been when restored using the same exact recovery.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Ok. I guess we now need to give a health warning to encrypted users.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
BTW, what is your ROM?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
At the moment I am running DotOS. I had attempted to recover several different backups though. All of them same behavior after the restore. Unfortunately even a restore with a dirty flash would still only get to bootanimation until the full format data option and clean install of ROM.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Probably because you are trying to restore backups of encrypted data. TBH, it seems that encryption might be somewhat broken on this device - particularly on custom ROMs.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
I whole hearted agree. I have had a ton of issues flashing and restoring no matter the recovery. Unfortunately, I use my phone for work, requiring encryption, so I can't decrypt and keep it that way. Found my favorite way is to always "format data", clean the install, boot, then install zip made from the migrate app. Keeps my setting minus the UI customizations.

Long story short, this recovery working well.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
So how do you encrypt again after formatting?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
Edit: disregard below. I do not encrypt my data. We were speaking of different things completely, my bad. I use BYOD which sets up an encrypted partition (work profile). I was more or less referring to TWRP asking for PIN when I boot to decrypt. Regardless, my phone has behaved the same no matter what. It does not like any changes to the recovery partition. If I upgrade or change recoveries, I have to format data and clean flash to get a functional phone again.

I never encrypt again. My phone has never been "decrypted," so to speak. When I format data, it always allows the install of whatever ROM no problem, and when I boot, my phone shows encrypted. Unless we are talking about different encryption partitions?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Hmm ... this is strange. Formatting data is supposed to remove encryption. So, either there is a hidden encrypted partition that always escapes data format (perhaps the one set up by your BYOD), or something is force-encrypting behind the scene after you install your ROMs, because forced-encryption has not been disabled. This is unlikely, because I don't think that our R9.0-1 is able to mount encrypted partitions. Can you please send me a copy of your recovery.log by PM?

All the time I have error 7 when installing Lineage OS 16. Xiaomi.eu installs without a problem. I tried to install with full wipe and without but the same error.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] festor89:
I have read it, but I think that this is not the problem that more exactly the same rom I previously installed on TWRP and there was no problem.

I checked "ro.product.device" agree with build prop is polaris

Without logs, I am quite unable to comment.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
I have had similar issues myself, just like this. Required firmware version was installed properly, but some ROMS would install perfectly fine, while others threw error 7.

After 3-4 days troubleshooting, I ended up fastboot restoring phone to latest factory, then clean flashing everything. It sucks, but give it a try?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] evronetwork:
Want to flash but I better do a proper full backup and a nandroid backup first to avoid any disaster
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
You most certainly should do that! ;)

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] noobtoob:
So I found out just today I am not alone in the updating or flashing of ROM through TWRP requiring a "format all" and clean install. Don't know why it took a lot of other people this long to comment about it. For months I thought maybe just my phone... For reference, the AOSiP thread is what I am referring to. I was running AOSiP when I tried to flash this recovery, could have been the reason for the bork. I'm now in DotOS and haven't had an update to try yet, so can't comment further.

So with that said, I can definitely say this recovery working perfectly fine on my device. [emoji2936][emoji2935]

Not very likely.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] xumixu:
Why is that?

vanilla twrp supports it, so is not straight forward to me that it can't be "ported" or "assimilated". On the other hand i'm not a programer or the sort so i dont know how viable is that (or if it is at all).

This is pure curiosity, so feel free to *comment jump* this if you are not on the mood.

Dear developper

I just format my phone and now my computer do not find my device.

I use orangefox recovery and i think the i made a mistake to format my internal storage.

What can i do to make my phone be find by my computer now?

Anyone can help me please?

Please!!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Formatting data (which includes internal storage) will

not

prevent your computer from finding your device. Are you trying to connect in fastboot mode, or from adb?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mauriciocardoso:
Dear DarthJabba

I can not explain what happens! My ubuntu computer do not recognize anymore my phone after i format my phone...neither by usb neither by adb or fastboot!

Any suggestion, my friend?

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 AM ----------

The only different thing i did was to "advance wipe" my internal storage.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
Well, although I don't use linux to connect to my phone, I really do not see how wiping or formatting internal storage could affect whether Ubuntu sees your phone or not. Most importantly, I do not see how it could possibly affect fastboot mode. I think your problem is somewhere else. Check your linux drivers, reboot your linux box, try a Windows PC, try another USB cable, etc.

In any case, this is not an OrangeFox issue, so there is really nothing more that I can say.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mauriciocardoso:
Dear Friend

I tried to connect the device at my windows 10 computer and the same problem happenned. The computer do not recognize my device anymore after a wipe data!!

Any suggestion or advice? For windows or linux!

Please help!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DarthJabba9:
I think you first need to tell us what exactly it was that you wiped. Wiping data or internal storage cannot possibly prevent Windows or Linux from recognizing your device.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] tqwzUX6fn39GZMEzSnDF:
Check if it is mounted.

I don't know if this is something which can be wrong within orangefox. In TWRP it can.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mauriciocardoso:
Dear friend

Maybe you did pointed me in the right direction..... by on misterious reason i think i "disable" my internal storage, cause' i can't mount it at the "mount" option of the orangefox recovery.

The others partitions i can mount, but not the "internal storage".

I do not know what i did (or not), but i'm afraid i lost my phone!

If anyone has a useful tip.....please
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] mauriciocardoso:
Dear friends

Another thing about my problem: MTP is enable at the "mount" but is not detected by any of my computers (linux or windows systems)...

How is it possible?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] DahakePL:
Change cable. Switch MTP off and on again. It must work
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Othe] tqwzUX6fn39GZMEzSnDF:
And also try different USB ports (at my notebook only USB 3 works).

I couldn't possibly comment without seeing the logs. But, if it is a bug, then it is a bug in the upstream TWRP code, so you might want to report it to the upstream TWRP maintainers (OrangeFox did not create the "tar" error 255 - and it is not a new error at all).

A recovery cannot encrypt your phone, and flashing a recovery cannot lose you anything. If the TWRP recovery works for you, that is very good indeed.
