Hey guys

I got a question is it possible already to create an backup and restore it when 2 profile's are configured?

Like private and work profile?

I was able to use this with my previous phone, that's why I ask.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] McFlypants:

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] mauronofrio:
I can't solve this problem, you should make the backup without any password or pin or pattern setted

It is a problem if i have made backup with pass or pin setted? One time i did this and after restore the phone gone to fastboot.

And for example if i want to backup a miui rom, what partitions should i backup? Also before restore i have to do something?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Anonda:
Always back up without pin or password.

for back up partitions, as I know system image, vendor image, data, Boot is enough
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] spiou:
Is this a general rule or it's because the backup concerns a custom rom ?

I'm on Xiaomi official global rom (MIUI 11) and I always backup with pattern setted : actually I never needed to restore, but does it mean that my backup is useless ?

Thanks in advance for your response.

[MENTION=4712355]mauronofrio[/MENTION]

I don't know the technical details of how encryption works on the phone, so this is based on guesswork from what people are seeing.

When flashing custom ROMs on encrypted phones, if users don't format data, they will often see bootloops. When this happens TWRP no longer recognises that the phone is encrypted and doesn't ask for the PIN, so we then have an encrypted phone that we cannot access the data. The only solution is to format data.

My guess is that there is some encryption flag set on another partition, which TWRP reads to know if it should ask for the PIN when first loaded and this flag is getting reset during ROM flashing.

Would it be possible in the above situation to have an option to manually decrypt. Maybe an option in the advanced menu, which will show the enter PIN screen, then try to decrypt after entering the PIN.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] sfairmm:
Excuse,

Maybe you interested, take a look at this article, I found it very enriching. It even mentions the functioning of the vbmeta advised to be flash in the OP.

Have nice!

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Robbo.5000:
I don't want to remove encryption or dm-verity. I am just asking if it is possible for TWRP to be able to decrypt the phone at those times when TWRP doesn't recognise that the phone is encrypted.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] zgfg:
Mi 9T, MIUI 11/Android 10 - should be same/similar for Mi 9T Pro

Use some root explorer, e.g. MiXPlorer:

Open the file (as text):

/vendor/etc/fstab.qcom

For /data partition it says:

fileencryption=ice

About ice encryption, see eg:

https://www.qualcomm.com/media/documents/files/file-based-encryption.pdf

EDIT: That is the 'flag' you were asking about
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Kiro04:
Hi guys!

I have a bootloop problem here.

I try to flash the last TWRP 3.3.1-32 following the instructions in the first post.

I flash the VBMETA file, but without the "--disable-verity --disable-verification" because give me the error "unknown option" in CMD.

After that, I flash the TWRP.img and everything gooes fine.

Boot up to TWRP fine, but when I try to reboot to system, the phone goes in a bootloop in the first screen with the MI logo and the "Unlocked" phrase down the screen.

Can boot on TWRP normally and in Fastbot.

Any help to revert this without flashing a ROM from scratch?

Regards!

EDIT: I've download new Fastboot folder, try again the first command and it work; flash again TWRP.img and it work. But still in the screen with the MI logo and the Unlcoked word, but this time, after a minute or two, it goes to the TWRP menu. Not bootlooping anymore...

Any suggestions?

EDIT-2: SOLVED! I download the full rom and extract the vbmeta from there, flash it via Fastboot, turn down the phone, turn up again and wait like 5 minutes and start!

I dont know why, but it restart all the phone, I have to enter the MI Account and restore the Google backup, but at least, it's working :D
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] barbonjoe:
Coming from a chinese rom I used mi flash to install the global rom 11.0.1

Then I made these steps:

-change the vbmeta

-install twrp

-boot to twrp and select read only

-format data typing yes when prompt.

-install magisk 20.3

-reboot

Here after pressing reboot instead of going to the system it went back to twrp.

So I tried this:

And it boot successfully to the system but after installing magisk manager looks like the modules doesn't work. I tried to activate the systemless hosts module in the magisk menu but adaway cannot see it even though it has root access. The magisk modules tab is empty even after restarting the phone. I'm not using the magisk core option.

Do you guys know what's wrong? The rom has to be installed through twrp instead of using mi flash tool?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] bdwilk:
I'm just curious as to why you would select "read only" if you're trying to modify the system? Read only means just that, you can't modify anything.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] barbonjoe:
I read somewhere it's more safe for OTA and read only is only for the system partition. Isn't magisk systemless?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] bdwilk:
It is "systemless" but I promise you won't have these issues if you "swipe to allow modifications". I don't know anything about OTA but it's just as easy (or easier) to download and flash updates.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] Robbo.5000:
You can download the official latest platform tools from here

https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools

Also make sure you are actually using the latest version of the platform tools.

If you have used the 'install' option of minimal adb before then it will have registered it's location in the %PATH% environment variable. This means that using the adb and fastboot commands will default to the version found in the %PATH% variable. If you have a more recent version on the PC, these will get ignored, unless you specify the location when using the command. i.e. instead of just typing fastboot, type the full location of fastboot (

c:\android\new-platform-tools\fastboot flash vbmeta.img ...etc.

)

Also if you navigate to the latest folder location and type fastboot, it will still use the version found in the %PATH% environment variable, if this has been set, so you would then need to type .\fastboot to qualify the version to use.

TWRP issue

I'm still unable to work around this.

I want to use the stable MIUI rom latest with TWRP or OrangeFox - rooted, but when I try to install TWRP and then reboot TWRP is lost.

I tried flashing the vmbeta img as said in the first post of this email -> but then after logging into TWRP I need to format data -> reflash miui rom and then after system reboot again TWRP is lost.

I also tried the modified vbmeta_dv_shivsom.img suggested in one of the post of this thread, but again same issue with it.

Can anyone help with the exact steps for this? :confused:

Edit : I got the PE rom working with TWRP installed. So I guess its the MIUI rom thats reflashing the stock recovery.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] ergysramaj:

What rom? i just wanna install twrp and magisk
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] bdwilk:
I'm pretty sure for TWRP to read (decrypt) your files you'll have to format data. Now it'll be up to you if you want to be encrypted or unencrypted after that but I'm pretty sure you'll have to format after flashing TWRP or TWRP won't even "see" your internal data. It's not hard to backup, just copy/paste all of your important folders, files, pics, etc to a PC and copy them back after formatting.

You'll only need the dm-verity zip if you want to be unencrypted and for that you'll definitely have to format.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] zgfg:
To install Magisk you don't need TWRP at all (hence in that case you don't need to bother with formatting/decrypting ss for TWRP and custom ROMs).

Just

-extract stock boot image from zip/recovery firmware package,

-install Magisk Manager app,

-from MM patch the extractef boot image (DM Verity and Enforce encryption - both options keep on Yes, Recovery option turn to No),

-flash the patched boot image from Fastboot,

-reboot to system and you are rooted

And if you ever want to unroot, use Uninstall Magisk option from MM (Magisk Manager)

As such, you don't need TWRP either for Magisk zip installation or uninstallstion

PS: Even Data can be backed up and restored by ADB. So it is convenient to have TWRP but not a must (if not going to install custom ROMs)
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] LazyT:
Could anybody please explain how to restore a backup?

When I format data it is not possible to restore it from backup: error 255. But restoring it directly after the backup it works fine.

It works also when booting the rom once (to let it do encryption?). After that the restore works.

But, this way all banking apps doesn't work anymore.

So, how the hell I can get a full working backup restored!?
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] mauam:

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] LazyT:

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] DeepAnger:
I recently experienced this problem too (ERROR 255 while trying to restore DATA from a xiaomi.eu backup).

I did not lose files or recordings because I copied them before on a PC but I had to reinstall everything from scratch as my full backup was useless.

Now, I don't want to upgrade the installed ROM in fear of a bootloop because a backup you cannot restore is like no backup.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro ROMs, Kernels, Re] LazyT:
In my case there was several encryption related errors in the log (/tmp/recovery.log).

So the idea was:

- after formating data it's empty and unencrypted -> problem

- restoring system/vendor/boot and boot the rom -> encrypts data

- boot to recovery again

- restore data

- all fine

This worked for most, but not all apps (banking detects some change and must be setup again, huawei health hangs).

So we can flash roms and make backups, but can't restore...
