[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Baddo:
please help me over this issue,I have unlock bootloader for my phone but I'm still facing problems on how to flash twrp since 2 weeks
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
I'd just like to report I recently had some issues the the LR TWRP (v 1104: is there a newer version for A9 or are all updates after that one all for A10?) I had installed on my device running A9.

I had chosen the LR TWRP originally simply because it has options onboard to root your device flawlessly.

I had made a few Nandroid backup successfully (no errors) all the way through my device configuration after setting up my OS and applications to suit my needs, and kept them in external SD in case I messed up anything badly.

It happened inevitably ;)

So I simply rebooted to recovery (installed to stay) and tried to restore. any of those (I had a dozen or so).

I could never restore any of those backups using that LR TWRP I had installed (v1104) on my system.

All attempts ended up the exact same way with createTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255 when restoring Data. And yes I had tried all possible way, wiping, formatting, rm -rf *, changing file system, using compressed or uncompressed backups, nothing worked.

Then I saw there was a new version of the OFFICIAL TWRP out there twrp-3.4.0-0 so since I could not restore any of my backup it was worth to try, then I flashed it.

I successfully restored any of all my backups on the first try. Tested them all, all restored flawlessly without error.

So if you think your backups were corrupted and you lost everything, it may not be the case, and you may be able to restore with OFFICIAL TWRP.

Bottomline, when LR TWRP (from last year at least) make proper backups if you do not enable advanced options such as Dual Apps, Second Space, Work Profile, Multiple users, that recovery may not be able to restore them for some reasons. However if that happens to you, all hope is not lost, give a try to the OFFICIAL TWRP and you may be able to restore your Nandroid backups after all.

What is strange is I remember I had tested backup, restore straight out of the box before setting up my stuff to see if that was something I could rely on, like 6 months ago, and I think I remember it did work.

Why it did not work anymore, I have no idea, but it did not and my backups were not corrupted either that's for sure.

Hope this helps.

I had the same issue and found I had to fully boot up the system with everything but the data partition restored. Once the system was up and running, I could flash the data partition without error
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
I am unsure what you mean exactly, I am confused.

If I understood properly you restored Boot and System partition only, which is like a factory reset image fresh installed, booted up completing initial setup then once on Android OS, you reboot back to recovery and then flash data partition only?

If not how did you restored userdata from Android OS....
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] wang1chung:
Yes exactly, basically a factory reset and I think what happens is while it's booting up for the first time, it formats and encrypts the data partition, then you can flash it. I've done it a few times after going back and forth from some GSI's and it seemed to work.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
I see. It also was an assumption of mine, but I cannot remember if I tried to restore only userdata after a 'factory restore'. I tried to temper with data partition all possible way I could think of and the only time I managed to restore the backup was when data was changed to ext3. I was then assuming there was a problem with handling ext4 on that LR TWRP version.

That's when I tried the latest OFFICIAL TWRP twrp-3.4.0-0-begonia.img	28.5M	2020-06-21 22:25:46 EDT and restore worked on first attempt out of the box, without having to restore partially first.

Since it now seems to support multi-user according to changelog (still have to test that) I might stick with the official one for now, I am already happy it is able to restore my backups.

Thanks for sharing your findings ;)
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] osmadro:
Hello guys i have a problem with the twrp. every time I try to install the twrp with fastboot, when the phone reboot, start a bootloop every time. Im getting a little bit nervous and i don't know what I have to do, so, can you help me please? :(
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
Hey,

Have you unlocked your bootloader first?

What is your phone regional flavor and current running Rom?

Have you tried to flash the corresponding recovery version to your current OS version, P or Q?

Which TWRP have you tried to flash? This one LR TEAM?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] osmadro:
Yes i have unlocked the bootloader. My phone is from EU and now im using MIUI 12 Global, the 12.0.2 version. I installed using twrp. I flash the recovery and then I flash the rom. I was in MIUI 11 11.0.3 EU and I tried to install the TWRP of LR Team, version

TWRP-3.3.2B-0305-REDMI_NOTE8PRO-CN-wzsx150

Edit: I tried with the offical version of TWRP 3.4.0 and i have the same issue
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
You did not forgot to close AVB from the recovery?

Or you never managed to get to recovery?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] osmadro:
First of all, what is AVB?

And when i flash the recovery i only can enter 1 time and then the phone enter in a bootloop
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
AVB stands for Android Verified Boot ;)

If you do not know about it, you probably have not closed it (even if that is described in all guides) so it might be the culprit :p

So if you can get to TWRP once, that's all what you need to sort it out.

Fortunately the LR TEAM TWRP does support this feature out of the box.

Go to advanced, then from the various options offered, choose the one to close AVB.

I have not tested the current version designed for Q (I dont want to go there yet, I am not willing to beta test something that does not work yet, so P is only option) but I see no reason why they would have removed that.

Now after you have closed AVB it might not bootloop but your TWRP will be replaced at every reboot.

For it to stick, you need to take additional steps which are perfectly described in available guides on XDA on how to flash recoveries, guides I suggest you to read obviously.

Hope this helps.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] osmadro:
Oh okai bro im going to try, what version i try to install the LR TEAM TWRP or the official release from Team Win?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
Well tbh it is a matter of choice really. The LR TEAM version has options the Official one does not have like ability to close AVB, root/unroot, remove force encrypt and such. That can be handy for early installation and settings, more user friendly than patching files (and you need to get the right ones...) in a specific order. It has all the tools you need to achieve that.

On an other hand version of LR TWRP I had for Pie (from 1104) was not able to restore backups... Since I could not find more recent version for PIe, all latest releases seem to be Q only and might not suffer from the problem I had, so I had to switch to official one which was able to restore backups made with LR TEAM one.

But since I am already rooted, AVB closed and all, I dont need those options anymore (for the time being), just to backup restore. I am still to test if the new version official one can handle multi users and their respective encryption properly (dual apps, secondspace, muti-users...)

Replacing recoveries is not very hard anyway so you can switch from one to an other when you need to.

Good luck.

Let us know how it turns out.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] osmadro:
I have to select Close the boot Verification of AVB2.0 and Close the DMVerity of AVB2.0? From deafult only the Close the boot Verification of AVB2.0 is selected.

Edit: Oh god you are the ****ing best person i see in years thanks so much bro ty its works <3 :victory: :o :fingers-crossed:
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
Sorry was afk. Default option should be enough.

I am glad I could help and glad you have this sorted out. If I did help do not hesitate to press the thank button at bottom of the posts :p

So you are on latest LR TEAM TWRP with A10 (Q) and it works fine?

Regards,
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] osmadro:
I installed the TWRP-3.3.1-1210, but every time I reboot the phone i lost the recovery so, if you can send me the recovery you said, i can try and give us the results. (How can i make TWRP permanent after close the AVB?)
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Muad.Dib:
You need to mount system as rw in TWRP then with any means you want terminal or filemanager :

delete file /system/recovery-fromboot.p if preset.

Unmount and recheck TWRP option to mount system as read only.

Restart.

Hope this helps.

Please guys, I have a redmi note 8 pro chinese version unlocked with global rom updated to MIUI 12 and I wish to enable root with magisk.

I followed everything ( fastboot unofficial twrp, mounted system delete file recovery-fromboot.p, close avb2, disable dm, install root ) , but I got bootlooping every single time, what forces me to fastboot boot again or even mi flash the global rom again.

I dunno what I'm missing, do you mind help me out?

Thanks a lot.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] wang1chung:
Format data, not wipe. You will lose all your data/pics, so you might want to do a backup.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] KurayamiArai:
Ok, thanks, losing data is not a problem for me.

I just want to install magisk and enable root with safetynet green.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Nxkealen:
When i install LRtwrp must i root? Or does cfw twrp work without root enabled??
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] srekoslav:
So I installed TWRP-Note8Pro-LRTeam-v3.3.2b which actually boots all other versions I tried just gave me a bootloop, but when I try to do a backup it just gives me a createTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255 is there a fix for this, or a newer version of TWRP? I'm on MIUI 12.0.4.0(QGGEUXM) A10.
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Totara:
Hi guys,

I have a chinese phone unlocked and running global ROM V11.0.2.0.PGGMIXM as I downgraded from the latest V12 hoping TWRP would install easier and I could root it easier as well.

I tried to install TWRP but each time although it says it's successful (no black screen, no boot loop) , when I restart in recovery it shows the stock one...

I didn't wipe data.

I tried with

Official TWRP: twrp-3.5.2_9-0-begonia.img

Unofficial LR TWRP: recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-1210-REDMI_NOTE8PRO-CN-wzsx150.img

Would you know what I did wrong ?

Thanks !!

- fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

- When it's done, Remove cable and Hold Power + Vol. Up when phone starts turning on leave the power button but keep pressing Vol. UP until TWRP splash Screen shows up.

- In TWRP mount System

- Go to Advanced > file manager

- then go to system_root > system and delete "recovery-from-boot.p"
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Totara:
Thanks but exactly at this stage

"until TWRP splash Screen shows up"

the stock recovery shows up
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Spleeny97:
Don't let the phone reboot after flashing TWRP or it will be reset to stock

Do the volU+pow trick from fastboot

Or the TWRP you tried are not for this Android version...

(Black Cat TWRP works with MIUI12 for sure, I'm using it)
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Totara:
Thanks buddy, that seemed to have worked... now it's attempting decryption (it's been 5 min)

For the records, I used the original TWRP

twrp-3.5.2_9-0-begonia.img

and flashed the vbmeta with

begonia_global_images_V11.0.6.0.PGGMIXM_20200108.0000.00_9.0_global
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Totara:
How long does the decryption phase takes ?

I think mine is a 128GB
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Spleeny97:
No delay, if your old password doesn't work just do a wipe so it has nothing to decrypt...
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Totara:
What does it says when it doesn't work. I'm sure it's not the password.

It's still written "Attempting to decrypt FBE for user 0..." could it take more than 2 hours for 128GB ?
[Redmi Note 8 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Spleeny97:
I don't know what it says exactly, but if you wiped the device and there is still a decryption problem I can't help you anymore.

This is ""normal""...

Since Gear S3... LTE devices ever the last ones...

Weeks/Months behind the BT only devices...

So this is known "phenomenon" since yearS...

IMHO chaos is greater...

Before it was easier to identify...

SM-R765A for ATT

SM-R765V for Verizon

SM-R765T for T-Mobile

All 3 are US only devices...

Now the Chaos is perfect... :eek:

IMHO users with OXA region could reach FSL3... with CSC change... :D

But only the F users with SM-R805F or SM-R815F... not the US users with SM-R805U / SM-R805U

But they are scared to loose Samsung Pay or....

Please help out here Pep's,i really want to know from you which one of these 2 Rom's is best,i currently have ([Jun 07] Dutty's Diamond V1 Rom) and i love it,work's super fast and flawless,but i also just saw the new ([June 25] L26_KaiserDiamond_V9 Rom) from Laurentius26 and it look's awesome!!! But my main concern is which one is better? Reception is the main goal here,did anybody get better reception with the new Laurentius26 V9 build? THANKS
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] troyk:
Reception has to do with your radio Rom, not Laurentius ROM.

There are different Threads that can be found about Radio Roms and their differences. I'd suggest you search for a ROM that is compatible with your provider.

NoThrills suits my needs, this in combination with a KPN (Dutch) Rom.

Works like a charm.

I loved the L26 ROM ... except that for no reason 1 week to 1.5 weeks after use it stopped being able to connect to the internet. It just about died. I had had previous brief instability but the totally flaky stability issue happened just when I needed the ROM the most - I was shopping and trying to pull up the Sears website. The flakinest cost me 1 hour of my day as I had to drive home and then drive back to Sears.

Subsequently I installed Death v3 and I had an even worse experience. After ~2 weeks the phone began to be unstable. The phone would pick up and begin to dial and then immediately hang up. This happened for ~5 minute bursts. I made the mistake of taking a Sunday trip to Atlantic City with the intent of reflashing when I got home on Tuesday. On Monday I had a horrible work issue that was very urgent. I could not call or dial out. I did a hard reset and then I lost all my contacts (obviously) and had a very, very, very painful Monday.

Since then I've gone to Dutty v1 . I'm on 2.5 weeks with absolute solid performance - no weird crashing messages or odd performance issues whatsoever. Dutty's given up on the Kaiser so I'm either stopping here forever or I may go Death v4 once the AT&T hidden proxy issue is resolved. I can vouch for the Dutty Diamond ROM Being absolutely rock-solid dependable and yet fast.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Exitao:
L26 makes very stable ROM with generally nice selection of appz. So you should feel confident about his ROMs - of course there are always bugs until the last version of that series.

But part of the fun of XDA is the flashing and tinkering and L26 has active follow-ups.

Dutty, however, is currently on a Kaiser-free diet. So don't expect any bugs with his ROM to be fixed any time soon (soon also being a relative term, most cooks are the geek version of junkies).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] AllTheWay:
reception has to do with the Radio not the ROM. Keep trying different WM6.1 radio's to see which one works best for you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] omarnone:
Thanks guy's, i jut want to see which one was working best for you with no problems,i guess I'll just keep Dutty's V1 Rom because it is flawless no problems at all.THANKS
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] nvous23:
Well it is a shame Dutty is bouncing out of the Kaiser Community... Competition is always good, and L26 and Dutty are both offering great Rom's for us to use... we owe them a lot as they aren't really profiting from this (Donations are donations and I'm sure if you broke it down they're getting less than $1/hr of their hard work)... Personally I'm sticking with the latest L26 rom, as Dutty's is 'outdated' now...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] Rip Torn:
L26 V9 Gave me awesome reception

V9 was awesome, including the amazing battery life..v10 somewhat buggy in particular the Comm Manager.

V9 gave me 30 seconds cold GPS startup and in the middle of the forest where nobody else (8 people with mobile phones of same & different carriers) could even get a single bar...I was surfing the Internet sometimes on HSDPA connect!

I have to try v11 (or v12) but I'm going to closely watch what source he used in v9 versus the new ones, because v9 to v10 was a NIGHT & DAY difference for me. Once he finds his sweet spot, I don't think I'll be upgrading for awhile...L26 is approaching Dutty's best work, and I think he may surpass our old Kaiser friend.

short question, would it be possible to get ONE UI v1 on the Note 10 with Android Q to get Good Lock working again?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] dj_ooms:
No. Samsung's version of Android 10 for the Note 10 series is basically OneUI 2.0. You would have to roll back to Android 9 to get back to OneUI 1. Good Lock should be updated to OneUI 2.0 compatibility eventually but may be a while since OneUI 2.0 is fairly new.

Could someone tell me if the protection of the original screen is indeed tempered glass or plastic?

I have created this thread to discuss the fact that if anyone was able to extract the Stock MIUI camera application for Redmi Note 8/8T (ginkgo/willow).

As we all know that using Gcam gives better photo quality but Gcam isn't fully compatible with our device. The wide angle lens, macro lens and I also believe the depth sensing lens don't work on Gcam hence not using the full capacity of the device camera hardware.

It will be great to have the Stock camera application alongside with Gcam so that we have better quality images using Gcam and also use the other camera features using stock camera application when needed.

Also anyone having the required knowledge to extract the Stock Camera application can provide a guide as I own the phone and am willing to get the application.
[Redmi Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RedSkull23:
Well you're right, and in fact i'm already using both camera's applications when needed and i find this great!

It IS possible to extract the stock Camera apk simply using an app like Skit or ApkExtractorLite (but i strongly recommend the 1st one), no need to guide, it's simply as a couple of taps. Just done so on my phone as a test and it works. Maybe it's not exchangeable between different variants like from Global to India, China or another region, but it should be fine if on same version.

Have you tried doing it by yourself or you're in need of the APK file?
[Redmi Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] dixitdevansh:
I own an Indian variant of device. It will be really helpful if you provide a link for the apk.

Also, users owning devices of different regions can post their Stock Camera apk by extracting the application using the above mentioned applications so that everyone can use them.
