[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] TheGentlemanZombie:
Sorry, but how can I know if I answered Yes on the Secure Startup screen? I don't remember ever being asked that.

I use pattern and fingerprint as screen unlocking methods. In the lock screen settings it says "Set screen lock - Password has been turned on" and also "Privacy protection password - Password has been turned off". In the Privacy section it says "Encryption & credentials - Encrypted" and when entering the Encryption & credentials menu, it gives me the option to encrypt device using Lock screen password, which is turned off.

Sorry if this is an annoying question, but I don't really want to wipe my data again, and I couldn't find any specific information on the resources linked throughout the thread.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
This thread is for OrangeFox Recovery discussions only, and these questions are off-topic in this thread. You might want to go and ask them in a general thread.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] TheGentlemanZombie:
I'm sorry for going slightly off-topic, but I'm asking in order to be able to install OrangeFox Recovery without having issues related to encryption, I'm trying to avoid having to wipe the phone's data.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
If you are so concerned about having to format data, then I think you should stay with your current recovery

and

your current ROM. There are too many incompatible encryption protocols on lavender, and if you change from a ROM using one protocol to one using a different protocol, you

will

have to format data to get encryption working again - and, some ROMs will just happily format your data for you when you flash them (without asking your permission) and then re-encrypt the device using their own protocol. You have been warned!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] TheGentlemanZombie:
Ok, look. I have installed custom recoveries on many phones before, I have also rooted them and modified them many times, and I have never had any issues at all. I'm not really a fan of custom ROMs, and I don't want a custom ROM, I just want a custom recovery and to root my device. I purchased my Note 7 and waited a week in order to be able to unlock the bootloader (which wiped the phone's data, btw, something I was already aware was gonna happen), after that I looked for a custom recovery I could flash, preferably TWRP-based, only to find a lot of people having issues the recovery asking for passwords they did not set, and the developers saying it is an issue with the ROM's encryption and that the only solution was to wipe the phone's data. So I tried to investigate here in XDA, on MIUI forums and everywhere I could, and I couldn't find anything specific at all. Until you posted the first comment I quoted regarding the Secure Startup setting.

Flashing a custom recovery shouldn't cause a factory reset, and if I can avoid it, I will. Or at least I will try.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
No, it will not

cause

it all by itself. If you are running the stock MIUI that came with the device,

and

you have no intention of flashing a custom ROM (which includes some "other" MIUI-based ROMs), then there shouldn't be any problem at all. If you formatted your device with the lockscreen password (or answered "Yes" at the Secure start up prompt) you will know when you try to boot your ROM (a password prompt will come up before Android can even start to bootup, rather than when your ROM has fully booted up and then you swipe to unlock it).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Fried Keyboard:
Hello, I am about to unlock my phone and had some questions on how to use this recovery.

1. Do I have to both Format Data AND Wipe Data, System, Cache, Dalvik or just Wipe Data, System, Cache, Dalvik? I am installing a Custom ROM and want to set up encryption on it, so what should I do here?

2. To install this recovery I have to first extract the recovery.img file from the zip file I downloaded, flash the recovery.img from a computer and then flash the zip file in Recovery on the phone, right?

3. Can i unplug the cable after having flashed the recovery zip from the phone?

4. After flashing the Recovery zip am I supposed to boot into MI UI again or can I just boot into recovery and start installing the ROM?

5. I saw that there is an option to install magisk in the recovery, do I have to use that or can I just flash my own zip file normally?

6. Is it possible to flash NanoDroid with this recovery (I am going to get a ROM that supports signature spoofing)? If so, do I flash the Custom ROM, Magisk and then NanoDroid in one go or do I have install NanoDroid after having flashed the ROM and Magisk and having rebooted?

Thanks!

Recovery password not working anymore

Hello, I need some assistance. I tried to revert my phone from AospExtended to Miui rom. After I flash the Miui global rom it requested for a pin. But the previous pin is not working anymore. Please advise :((((((

I wanted this recovery for the support of miui ota, but it does not work. it's the same to have twrp
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
You should probably go back to twrp then ...
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] TheGentlemanZombie:
Just for the record, I flashed OrangeFox without trouble, then flashed Magisk using the Recovery's tools and everything seemed fine. When I rebooted into the system, it asked me for a PIN that I (of course) never set up. So apparently it seems the data format is unavoidable.

Gapps over Ofox

Hello, i tried installing Aroma Gapps of my lavender the first method works ( Aroma Installer ) has appeared then after sometime when proceeding to install custom gapps the recovery is just restarting and as if nothing happens, but when in Twrp flashing mount_system.zip just works to it, is there a fix for Ofox recovery because this is the stable one other than twrps thanks. :)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] el mauri:
good answer, sure you have many friends and followers, must be the best programmer in the world, I apologize for my comment out of place ... now seriously speaking should not respond in such a shocking way for users, and again Excuse me if you were shocked by my comment. but it is so pitifully, orangefox and redwolf are support OTA miu, what it offers is a twrp that only changes the themes and puts password, now I understand the ppor that responds me in that way, have a good day
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
It is often required - but not always. Nobody can predict when it will be forced upon you (the dev community is trying its best, and efforts are being coordinated with regard to custom ROMs - but, really, the finger points "you-know-where").

I would

never

flash a ROM (even updates to my current ROM) without first backing up my internal storage (to my PC), and my settings/apps (to GDrive). I also would never flash a recovery from a different dev without doing the same. You can never be too careful ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
Which "custom gapps" are you referring to?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Vermouth:
i meant on aroma installer, you will be able to choose which one to install so i called it custom gapps
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
Are you saying that aroma gapps doesn't work for you? Can you send the logs?

PS: I have flashed aroma gapps, and I never had any problem with it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Vermouth:
i can't save the logs, because when i'm finished setting up, ofox just restarts.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
Ok. But in your /sdcard/Fox/ folder, there will be some .log files. Perhaps I can learn something from them.

BTW: Aroma has not been updated for years, and should be considered obsolescent. It is becoming increasingly incompatible with new devices and kernels. The only real solution to aroma problems is for "somebody" to resurrect the aroma project and bring it up-to-date. Nobody seems willing to do this, and so it will soon become obsolete on new devices.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Vermouth:
I just found a way, lol i didnt expect that. i tried extracting the recovery.img through orangefox.zip then itried flashing the .img file and it worked, but when u flash recovery as zip gapps aroma wont work now i see the bug :v
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
Now you've lost me completely.:confused: I am afraid I have no idea what you are talking about now, or what you were trying to do with aroma gapps.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] Vermouth:
Nevermind ^_^ anyway thank you for your work :o
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] TheGentlemanZombie:
No custom ROM here, just stock global MIUI. And I did back up my data before everything just in case (and I'm really glad I did).

So, for the record, I have official stock global MIUI, didn't have secure startup activated and didn't encrypt my device using the screen lock password. And I still ended up having to wipe the device's data. Maybe putting it as a general warning in the OP would be useful.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:
See point #0 in the OP ...

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & O] DarthJabba9:

question is whether your ROM supports f2fs.

Rebooting back to recovery when flashing OpenGapps

Flashing OpenGapps (aroma) is not working, rebooting back to recovery once hit Install button, tried flashing recovery.img manually via fastboot as reported by user echo09 - not working.

Manually mounting system_root worked, but need to do it

twice

.

How I got it work:

1) mount system_root.

2) install OpenGapps, once hit Install button, it will auto reboot back to recovery.

3) mount system_root, again.

4) install OpenGapps, this time it went thru.

Recovery log of failures before succeeding attempt attached, I did not copy the log out of succeeding attempt.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bqbase:
I was able to root my phone and use it for a while but then it started reboot for no reason. It is currently running Oreo, H91820h.

I tried to restore to different earlier back up but same issue and a whole bunch of apps complain and terminate itself. Tried to flash Lineage OS and same problem.

So I tried to use LGUP to restore it to stock image but cannot get the phone into download mode.

When I hold the volume down button and plug in the USB cable, I get the fastboot screen. [IMG="Fastboot"]https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cpBcbf_mseDIXGvsKqLJidvkolB4E8tW/view?usp=sharing[/IMG]

When I hold the volume up button and plug in the USB cable, I get the "Download Mode" icon for about 2 second and then it switches to TWRP screen.

I remember when I first tried to install TWRP, it was version 3.2.1-3. Then I tried to flash twrp version 3.3.1-0 but for some reason, sometime it boots up with version 3.3.1-0 and sometime it boots up with version 3.2.1-3.

I cannot flash anything in fastboot or adb since it always come back with "FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')".

I have tried for over a week, read everything I could on the internet and tried everything but without success in getting into download mode to reload the stock image with LGUP.

Could anybody provide any suggestion or an alternate way of restoring the stock image without requiring going to download mode? May be re-flash with a different twrp version or remove twrp completely so it doesn't show up when I press volume up and plug in the USB cable.

Please, I am desperate. I can even send you the phone if you think you can fix it.

Thanks.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] clsA:
I'm not that familiar with the 918 ( I have 2 H910 )

But from the symptoms you described

I would guess that your MB is shot.

Even if you do manage to get into download mode you'll likely have errors flashing anything. I can look at the phone but it sounds like you need a replacement MB.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bqbase:
Not sure what you mean by "MB". I don't think it means "motherboard" so my best guess is "master boot".

Where can I get a replacement MB and how to replace it?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] clsA:
Yes you need a motherboard

Or another phone
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Phoenix591:
Hold the phone here, the H918 can NEVER use fastboot to flash, thats why the lafsploit is used to replace download mode with a copy of twrp, leading many H918 users to have two different twrp installs.

To get download mode back flash this from the original lafsploit thread.

Rebooting for no reason is a bad sign (maybe see about replacing your battery if its the original one). Everything else (fastboot not working, download mode replaced by twrp)? Normal.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] bqbase:
OMG, OMG, OMG, I got my download mode back. I am so appreciate your help. I wish I can send you a beer.

I must have gone through this lafsploit thread a hundred times but never paid attention to this "OPTIONAL" note and I wasted sooo much time refusing to post a question on this forum thinking I can find the answer just buy combing through the internet.

I believe you are dead on with reboot issue too. I got more than a few times with the phone complaining that wrong battery was inserted and need to shutdown. But I thought my un-experienced flashing of all the junks I did on the phone are causing it.

"OPTIONAL

If you would like to restore download mode onto your laf partition AFTER you have installed TWRP onto recovery:

Boot to TWRP that is on recovery

Flash this zip: laf_restore.zip

This can be done at any time after you are rooted. About the only reason you would want to flash laf back is if you use LG Backup.

TWRP has the ability to backup your phone, so I am not sure why someone would want this (maybe you are more comfortable with it?).

Also, flashing back to 100% unrooted stock can be accomplished by flashing a zip in TWRP, you don't NEED to flash a KDZ, but again, maybe you are more comfortable doing it that way.

The bottom line is TWRP on both laf and recovery is FAR FAR more useful than flashing laf back. You can test new versions of TWRP while keeping your old known working version (for example)."

I just want to say thank you to clsA and Phoenix591 for the help. I found the answer and was able to successfully restore my phone to 100% stock. I know it's hard to pinpoint the issue while trying to understand all the craps that people post on their question. Hit or miss, right or wrong, work or not, I really appreciate all the effort that you did to help me figure out the solution.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] clsA:

V20 does have a lot of motherboard issue over the years. Apps crashing and phone rebooting randomly are 2 of them.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Luna_Xolotl:
Hi I've happened to run into the same mistake however the link is broken. If you still have the file I would really appreciate the help.

I'm usually very careful when it comes to flashing but I made the mistake of trusting someone to unlock my V20 for global use, vendor told me they didn't know if they could do it since it was rooted and their unlocking software detected the root. He needed to remove the root and charge me extra. I trusted him into removing the root and pushed back the agreed upon date like three times. He kept saying he could not remove twrp. Long story short he told me he wasn't able to do it and gave me a discount, he said he was able to unlock it but was not able to power it on as it was bootlooping. I assume it was because he locked the bootloader and once I unlocked it again when I try to go into download mode to restore into LGUP it boots me into twrp instantly. Thanks in advance
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] alejo:
Hi, I don't know if someone still has this problem of bootlooping with no download mode accesible for the H918. I ran into the same problem and followed this guide: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-h918-...nload-mode-after-root-with-lafsploit.3804728/. I am also enclosing the LAF partition IMG file because the ZIP file that was supposed to be flashed in order to get download mode back has vanished from the web. I was able to do a full phone recovery with the download mode and LGUP/UPPERCUT following this guide.

Apparently LG G7 will get UX 8 in future the Pie was based on UX7. Its not about the update, its the lack of support which is an issue. I bought this phone 2 months back which was on Feb 2019 Security update. I have not received a single update So far, whoever is receiving Pie update it is either on April or May security update.:confused:

And based on lgbbs forum they are actually testing the updates from a long time. :confused:

So i have successfully intalled TWRP and Magisk 19.3, everything is stable however one of the 3 banking apps i use recognizes that the device is rooted and denies me access. in the U. S. i use the TD Bank App and the Chase banking apps, and for these two either Magisk hide works or they dont care the device is rooted because am able to use them without issue.

the troublesome banking app is Banco Popular from the Dominican Republic. it detects root and denies me acces. i tried enabling magisk hide on it and failed, i then added magisk hide to all systemsl apps but that didnt work.

Banks in the DR always have a huge wait time and a lot can be done with the banking app therefore i would like to use it to manage my finances. is there anyway i can make magisk hide work or edit specific files in the system to prevent a root check?

i would appreciate any suggestions or links to other tgreads explaining what needs to be done

Hi everyone

I have tried flashing a custom ROM. TWRP3.3.1 is installed and therefore bootloader unlocked. I tried flashing resurrection remix as per this guide:

1)Full wipe (system,data,vendor, dalvik,cache,internal storage) + format data.

2)Flash No-verity-opt patch + xiaomu.eu developer on Oreo or xiaomi.eu 10.2.1 Stable

3)Factory reset

4)Reboot to recovery

5)Flash Resurrected Kernel v3.3

6)Flash POST-sGSI_3_v0.6 .zip

7)Flash RR System.img

8)Flash Magisk 18.0 (if you get an error that /vendor can't be mounted then just reboot recovery and flash Magisk again)

9)Reboot to system

10)Setup system

11)Reboot to recovery

12)Flash BiTGApps or OpenGapps + Magisk 18.0

13)Reboot to system

Although I used Kernel 5.1 PIE

Before this attempt I tried Havoc and I tried lineage and it's always the same... flashing the system.img takes only seconds and declares success. Then the boot screen of the respective ROM stays forever.

I just flashed xiaomi.eu ROM 10.2.1 and that boots fine.

What am I missing here?

Thanks!
