Odin keeps crashing when it is nearly complete

I have done this yet however it crashes when I follow your steps with a text box like "Odin Downloader has stop working". I have even gone to the extent where I have turned the magisk_patched.tar into a .tar.md5 file and still the same old error. How do I fix it?

If you require more info, I have a sm-a105fn/ds running android 9. Whenever it is on the "userdata" stage in odin, it crashes. I am using Odin 3 v3.13.1

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Tần Quảng:
I am using LG V20 F800K (Korean version).

I tried to root my device without changing the BootLoader (I was tired of waiting and looking at the warning screen every time I booted up). It seems that LG changed Android 9 firmware file, I used this tool and found that the system files have been changed to system.img_XXXX instead of system_XXXX.bin, so I use Android 8 firmware file .

My question is after editing the system.img file, how do I add it to the DZ file and recreate the KDZ file?

After researching on GitHub, I found that this tool can recreate DZ and KDZ files. However, I do not know which environment it works in? Linux or Windows? I tried to use it on Windows and got the error:

[!] Warning: Data between headers and payload! (offsets 826 to 83768)

right from the extraction step of the KDZ file.

I tried to use it on my VPS, CentOS 7.5 and the same error happened (despite following the instructions to toggle the logic in dz.py at line 175.).

I saw a few people say that the tool works on Python 2. However, I tried it on both Python 2.7 (both Linux and Windows), Python 3.6 (CentOS 7.5) and Python 3.8 (Windows) but the same error still works. happened, so I think that the tool has a problem.

So I want to ask is:

Is there a way to root without changing the BootLoader?

How to add the system.img file to the DZ file, then recreate the KDZ file?

Thank you.

• A newer Port of TWRP is available in the folder until I can upload here, hopefully soon.

WHAT'S NEW ?

• Fixed Prop.default with correct Device information from TECNO KB8 to Blade A7

• Added NV RAM & NV DATA to Backup Section, not Sure about Restore Section yet.

TWRP REQUIRES YOU ERASE YOUR DATA PARTITION INSIDE TWRP TO FIX ENCRYPTION PASSWORD.

Please do a backup of your data first, Unlocking the bootloader will Erase the DATA Partition with all your precious files on it.

[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] berndbrecht:
Hi there,

I tried to install a ROM on my Mi9T pro. I use Orange Fox and it asked me when I entered the recovery for the password, that decrypted my Data partition. All well so far.I installed the ROM Havoc and Magisk. After reboot into System, there was a bootloop. I entered the recovery again and the Data(internal storage is encrypted. Which is not too bad, because I know the password, but I do not get asked for the password/pattern. It says:

E: Error making /sdcard/fox, unable to wipe Data, unable to format to remoce encryption.

So I cannot install a new rom as the partion is encrypted and I cannot remove the partition.

“E:Unable to decrypt FBE device”

Does anyone have a recommendation on what to do?

Kind regards
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
When installing over MIUI you need to format data. You should still be able to format data, which should allow you to boot into the ROM after.

If Orange Fox won't let you format data at this point, then the issue is with Orange Fox. In TWRP when this happens, even though the data partition is encrypted and TWRP doesn't ask for the password, TWRP can still format the data partition.

If you can format data in OF, then good. If not try installing TWRP then formatting data. If that fails your best option is to restore to MIUI with a stock fastboot ROM, then start again.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] berndbrecht:
thank you for your comment. as a follow up. do you recommend a certain twrp release? i just don't want to **** up the phone. when ich connect the phone to my laptop, I can see the internal data, but neither can i copy, nor make the names of the files any sense (encrypted i guess). is there now way to decrypt the files from the situation as is? i do not mind, as i back upped all the important stuff, but if possible i would do without format.

btw. i came from lineage os. what i did: i wiped data, system, cache and data, then installed the rom ( included gapps) and magisk. then restarted.
[Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe] Robbo.5000:
Use the latest TWRP from here https://xdaforums.com/k20-pro/devel...cial-twrp-xiaomi-redmi-t3944363/post79823568. Go with the latest unofficial as it is the same as the official version, but with some minor bug fixes added.

Orange Fox is only really worth using when sticking with MIUI. Most of it's extra functions are MIUI specific.

When you get into this situation, unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done to recover or decrypt the data partition, as far as I know.

Normally going from one AOSP ROM to another you should be OK and won't need to format data. But occasionally this problem will happen, I've had it happen when going from LOS to AOSiP. Formatting data in TWRP, when this happens, will then allow you to boot into your new ROM. I haven't yet found out why this sometimes happens.

You will just need to backup your data whenever you flash a ROM, just in case this happens again.

[Oppo Realme 3 Questions & Answers] mfahad:
Hello all,

Hope that everyone will be safe and healthy.

I have bricked my Realme 3 RMX1821 and would be grateful for any help to get it working back again.

Event Summary: I unlocked its bootloader with the help of Realme Tool and then installed TWRP recovery and Magisk. All worked fine. Later on due to some reasons I uninstalled Magisk and then attempted to Lock the bootloader with TWRP installed.

Immediately after the bootloader was locked my phone was rebooted and a warning screen appeared saying “Charging Overtime”. Now I tried to turn off the phone and restarted it with Volume Down button pressed. Still the same screen with an additional message in the corner saying “Recovery Mode”. Under both the cases no other button works and I have to power it off.

Support centers are all closed due to current virus issues and I need this phone really badly.

Will be grateful if someone may help me out.

Not Working

Please be carefull.

Version V11.0.1.0 causes an infinite reboot loop to Redmi Note 9s devices.

Version V11.0.3.0 or higher works fine.

What I idid:

- Installed all required drivers.

- Unlocked bootloader after waiting 168 hours.

- Downloaded ROM

- unzip ROM

- Ejecute windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat

- It finish with 3 errors. The script try to install these files, but they are missing from the ROM:

- firmware-update/recovery.img

- firmware-update/logo.img

- firmware-update/multi_image.mbn

- After the script finish, the device reboots automatically.

After a time, the initial setup screen to connect to a wifi shows up... then after a few seconds it reboots.

It doesnt matter how many times you try, it alwais reboots.

It doesnt matter how many times I reflash. It just dont work.

I'm not the only one with this problem. There is more people reporting the same problem:

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Guides, ] 7gismo:
Warning for ROOT users

For all rooted users out there, be extremely cautious if you plan to use XIAOMI EU ROM with latest 11.0.80 firmware running! The bug that causes fastboot loop is definitely there and it's not related to root explorer (or any file manager with root permissions) only. Based on my further tests, after I installed and gave root permissions to Root explorer and right after uninstalled it, the phone still ends up in fastboot. Going back to TWRP beta5, the main error message coming up is as follows:

Failed to mount '/system_root' (Read-only file system)

The bug hiding somewhere somehow disrupts the system partition causing the phone to think there is no OS installed, hence it ends up in fastboot. It is that bad that it's not possible to mount System partition from within TWRP. It just won't let me to tick the System, while other partitions are fine to tick or untick them in Mount option for TWRP.

Once again, this seems to happen when root privileges are given to file manager with root function (it was Root Explorer in my case).

I must wonder is this bug related to ROM only or has it something to do with TWRP itself:eek: Remember, TWRP is still in beta, so some issues are possible. Magisk could be considered as a troublemaker, too.

For now I can only confirm that some root apps like AdAway, ClockSync or Titanium BackUp don't cause the fastboot loop, reboot is perfectly fine.

Some feedback from other ROOTED users on what they think causes the fastboot loop, would be much appreciated:angel:

Some of us already faced this issue and we mentioned it along our post here.

File explorer is usable under Magisk root but it is mandatory to disable given root BEFORE any reboot.

A solution has to come with TWRP upgrade.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Guides, ] 7gismo:
Thank you for your swift reply, I'm aware of others who had to deal with this problem reading back through the thread (including your posts):good:. When you say file explorer, do you mean the built-in one in Xiaomi system or a third party one like X-plore (you mentioned in one of your posts). With Root Explorer specifically disabling root permission didn't help, neither did a full uninstall of Root Explorer as an app. Phone ended up on the now infamous fastboot loop:p

Just to give you an idea what I'm after here: I want to move custom sound notifications (mp3 files) to system/media/audio/notifications using root permission to write. With Root Explorer it was simple and straight forward on Redmi Note 8 (ginkgo) I had before I upgraded to Redmi Note 9s (curtana) while running latest EU ROM on it.

A huge thanks for your feedback!:)
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Guides, ] papatzis:
[MENTION=4144158]7gismo[/MENTION] I read a lot of forums concerning this problem, I had ended that the problem is not installing or giving root rights to files explorers, this by itself some reporting say that has not ended with the problem, the problem occurred when ANY MODIFICATIONS IN SYSTEM PARTITION WAS MADE.

When you installed and uninstalled root explorer that ended with the fastboot loop, HAD YOU ADDED THE MP3 FILES?

this is the question to answer.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Guides, ] 7gismo:
You're absolutely correct, sir:good: After I added just one single short mp3 file under system with root privilege under Root Explorer, the phone turned into toast after the 1st boot:rolleyes:

Just did some testing on this myself literally minutes ago. Luckily I'm prepared with a full nandroid backup, so no real harm done. Your report is much appreciated!

At the same time I never experienced this particular problem on Note 8 (ginkgo), I guess this goes down to more reliable TWRP version (not to mention Note 8 has been out for months now for all good developers out there). So as lolo9393 mentioned, we will have to wait for a STABLE TWRP version to deal with this unfortunate bug there is, right? Guess this means no custom notifications for me in the meantime:crying:. But it could be worse, so time will bring some remedy, hopefully!!!

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Guides, ] 7gismo:
To be honest, I used Titanium Backup instead. It's not without hiccups (especially now under Android 10), a few apps weren't backed up properly, but settings and widgets were intact. But to answer your question, initially I tried to use backup option built in this beta5 TWRP for curtana and it failed. It was able to backup DATA folder, but not SUPER (would that be a SYSTEM folder of some kind I gues). So I wouldn't recommend TWRP for backup purposes, just my 2 cents.
