[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] recall1:
When i try to restore vendor or system_ext partition(s) from a succesfully made Backup it says Partition not found...? Also vendor and system_ext is not listed in restore options though it had succesfully been backuped.

does anyone else have the same problems with this twrp version? No new update since july 7th...

Or is it just me?

Im using the latest twrp-beryllium-v3.6.2-A12-V3 version by Reignz3 with awaken 2.9 vanilla rom

my phone is not encrypted
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TioCareca:
its a bug no fix for now
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] recall1:
Ah thanks!

Lets hope there will be a fix soon since its not possible to completely restore the phone if needed with this version
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TioCareca:
try with v2 i read some people saying that they could restore with it, i didn't try it tho....
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] recall1:
same with v2 :/...i just tried it
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Retrial:
This is source side bug as far as I remember Reignz said.

Current common bugs of TWRP based on A12 by REIGNZ are:

There is low chance the Pattern/PIN not work in prompt to decrypt.

Workaround: Boot to system and remove pattern/pin and set it again.

Format Data may doesn't work at once after wiping partitions.

Workaround: Reboot again to recovery and then format data [Fixed v2]

MTP may not work while you are in TWRP and connected to PC.

Workaround: Go to Advanced > File Manager > Select Internal Storage and then PC should recognize the device.

If you want to use DFE you may encounter some issues.

Workaround: If you want to be decrypted and flash DFE always, use TWRP by REIGNZ based on A9 and mount the vendor before flashing it.

Backup/Restore doesn't work, source side of twrp issue.

Note: Only work with FBE A12+ ROMs. It doesn't work with FDE.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Tremolo4:
I am still on FDE, not FBE, as noted previously in this thread.

I just tried the V4 version from @REIGNZ3 to see if it would decrypt my data. It did not work. Moreover, this time, it also seems to have corrupted something so that even booting to system now says "Wrong password" when trying to decrypt. Trying this recovery is the only thing I did between reboots. Only took a minute or two. I now have to do a fresh install, thereby switch to FBE, and restore apps from Seedvault and NeoBackup.

Sadly, I will have lost at least two weeks of data on some apps due to this.

So I'm warning anyone who has -- like me -- upgraded since Android 9 and will therefore still be on FDE to stay away from this recovery. It is not safe.

I'll refrain from using this recovery even after switching to FBE as I've lost trust in its developer to be honest. It seems the future of creating full data backups on Android is no longer by using a recovery.

Edit: Here are the steps I did for posterity.

0. reboot to fastboot from my running system

1. flash V4 recovery by REIGNZ3

2. reboot to recovery

3. go to Mount --> Decrypt Data

4. enter password

5. receive message about the password being incorrect

6. try again, no success

7. reboot back to system

8. enter password. now android tells me that my password is wrong
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TioCareca:
That recovery is for A12 and A 13 rooms so it's not for A9 encryption even if not told explicitly, I think its told somewhere but... Anyway supposedly you should clean flash updating from different ROM version in custom rooms as stated by almost all devs to avoid bugs...
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Tremolo4:
I am on Android 12 (newest LineageOS 19.1 build), as said multiple times before.

And yes, almost nothing was *told explicitly* about this recovery which should have been a red flag for me already, to be honest. I was just too curious.

So here goes: I am stating explicitly that the TWRP recovery by REIGNZ3 is to be avoided with FDE encryption, because it will effectively wipe your data without warning. I am also going to note explicitly again that FDE still works in LineageOS 19.1 / Android 12 for our device.

On another note, I find it hard to believe that everyone wipes their data on every new LineageOS version. Why the hassle when upgrading works fine?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] TioCareca:
True, I still wipe all every time a number is up in a ROM and almost all flashaolics do it, but I understand why you would not wanted do that.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Retrial:
First of all, none forced you to use that recovery if you were already happy with what you had before.

You take your own risk when you mess with custom roms/recoveries and always should have backup of your main data.

I remember few posts back (here, here, here, here) people telling you that doesn't work with FDE.

I don't know what you did but decryption working fine for most people in A12+ with FBE if you did clean install. If when you boot to twrp and get the prompt to put ur pattern/pin to decrypt doesn't work, boot to ROM and remove pattern/pin and set it again, then try again on twrp. I personally never had to do that but few others had to do it.

About Backup/Restore this is source side issue of twrp based on A12 (instead of A9 which official is) as reignz already said.

I've highlight some common issues with workaround here but I will also add as note that doesn't work with FDE.

To reply to your question why is recommended to do clean install from one Android version to another, is because to clean up the system from old android version files that left behind, to not mixed things up, avoid bugs-glitches that may caused by this and more. Even on stocks ROMs you should that (from android version to another).

It's sad when people doesn't appreciate the work of developers and saying they lost the trust to them. You know it's hard to make everything work as the time goes on, on older devices like f1 and we should be happy that some devs still messing with it. This twrp by @REIGNZ3 saved a lot of A12+ ROMs which can now use encryption fine to improve security.

So I can say the opposite to you that FBE working fine with this recovery and should not be avoided as you said. Actually it's your only twrp choice that support decryption on a12+.

Most casual users choose a ROM, install it and then boot to recovery only for OTA updates etc or to perform clean or dirty installation. No reason to dig it more, especially if you compared it to aosp recoveries or to oem recoveries which doesn't have many option as twrp.

By saying all these, I will suggest to move our conversation in my thread since this thread is for Official TWRP and people may get confused with all these.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Tremolo4:
Thanks for your reply. I agree with most of what you say. I'm aware that what I'm doing with my phone is entirely at my own risk. I'm not demanding anything of any developer. I'm just stating my own experience and the consequences I personally draw from that.

Thank you for adding a note about FDE. It might save other people in my situation, if there are any left.

In other news, my Seedvault Backup was restored perfectly, very convenient. For Apps that disallow backup I used a two-weeks-old NeoBackup, which worked for most apps. Only some apps refused to work due to "security concerns" after restoring their data with NeoBackup. No big deal, just annoying.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] REIGNZ3:
This recovery was never intended for FDE devices, and no rom has used FDE since A12, so stop blaming me when you were at fault.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Tremolo4:
Sorry for the confusion, I was not intending to blame you for anything. My apologies. I was merely informing people in this thread about how your recovery works with FDE and LineageOS 19.1 / A12.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] blackby:
Hi there. I ran into the exact same issue Tremolo 4 stated updating from v3 to v4 and not being able to boot the system anymore. Apart from a clean flash is there any possible idea to revert the change coming from the recovery update? Same as Tremolo4 I did not update the system image (was on 19.1 before) and only flashed the new recovery version. This must have had some effect on the data partition or the table. I attached a log from LOS Recovery indicating issues with the data partition. I am very thankful for any help here.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Tremolo4:
According to my research the only way to decrypt LineageOS 19 / A12 FDE data is the system itself. No recovery that I know supports it. Official TWRP only supports FDE up to and including LineageOS 18.1 / A11.

I'm very sorry that my warning about REIGNZ recovery silently corrupting FDE data did not reach you in time.

I found no way to recover the data. Instead I did a clean install and restored from an older backup.

Did you really only flash the recovery or did you also attempt to decrypt your data in TWRP (and received the incorrect password message)? I'm wondering if just flashing the recovery causes corruption (I don't see how that's possible) or you need to try to decrypt data. Or maybe just booting it is enough to trigger the issue.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] blackby:
I did try to decrypt within TWRP itself after flashing as well.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Tremolo4:
There is a new official TWRP build for our device, v3.7.0.

Since it's still based on the Android 9 branch, I suspect it still won't support FBE decryption for A12+. However, it may yet fix FDE decryption on A12; there is one entry in the changelog that sounds relevant. Sadly, I've lost the ability to test that.

Interestingly, the Android 12 branch changelog lists "FDE compatibility".

Since there is no official maintainer anymore, there might be some obvious bugs, who knows. I do not plan on testing it, just wanted to notify people here.

[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] selemine:
How close to the Android default encryption are devices from Poco? With the OEM Rom Android 12 isn't a problem for me yet. Still encryption support would be nice for all versions of Android. Some manufacturers run their own version, require interaction with blobs and very often a device maintainer just skips it

Did you say nandroid backups don't work? Is there any solution?

Or can we use the ROM-specific recoveries (like CrDroid recovery, Lineage OS recovery etc)?

How do I know if the device is using FDE or FBE? Can I change it, and if I can, is it a one-time thing or do I have to repeat it every time I flash a ROM?

Yes nanodroid doesn't work properly in that recovery according to the reports.

The recoveries you mentioned are not able to do that function, are only basic.

All A12+ ROMs are FBE by default. You can't change it.

I tried many TWRP to decrypt my F1 with LMODroid rom and only this one works. Thanks for giving the link :D

For people who does not know LMODroid : it's a Lineage based rom with better privacy and inteded to be a de-googled one. The one I'm using is the latest one, wich is Android 13 based.

Does it have infrared camera face unlock?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Howell:
We are off topic as it's a TWRP post but I just installed LMODroid so I will try and report :D

Edit : Face unlock works but I doubt it uses IR because it seems not working when light is too low (if someone know how to tell if it uses IR except using low light just let me know).

BUT, and it was a surprise, the default photo app can use IR cam :eek:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] first_damned:
Ir camera will only be in black and white when you set it up, if it's in colour it's using the front camera.

What are your thoughts on LMODroid so far then compared to lineage? Does it pass safety net?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Howell:
I know 😉 That's why I know the camera app can shoot thru IR camera. I meant how do one know that face unlock uses IR cam ?

I cannot compare to Lineage because I haven't tried Lineage on F1. I will try SafetyNet check. For the moment I rooted it with Magisk to try some apps.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] first_damned:
Yes and the same applies when you setup face unlock, is it black and white or in colour
[Xiaomi Poco F1 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Howell:
Thanks, I didn't noticed it : so it does not use IR (And I learnt something today :D).

Concerning SafetyNet : as Google ended Safetynet API access, I know no software to check it. I tested 6 apps to check and none works anymore.

Only thing I know for sure is that my main banking app did not complained on my rooted F1 and this ROM.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] akshaykarve:
Hello guys,

Just got it a few days back.

Now i tried to connect my 1tb, 2tb and 5tb HDD to the phone via a type c to type a adaptor.

It detected all but always asked me to format it first before using. I cannot afford to lose th precious data in those hdd.

I am just happy to know that it detected the 5tb HDD also.

My question is, what file format does it support in order for me to try to take a back up of my hdd and turn it into one of those file systems so that it can be read.

I stopped using computers and laptops a few years back. Hence im kinda excited with this new discovery.

Also, will the file format system be readable in the comouters (macs and windows format)

Thanks in advance.

Looking forward for a simple quick solution which doesnot wipe out my hdd data... ?

I recently had an issue where the camera application would not switch to the memory card. Instead, it would only see the network storage or the main memory. I didn't know, at the time, but switching on the network storage plugin, in the settings/connections area will cause the camera app, as well as some others, to loose the ability to access the storage card. Turn off the plugin, reboot the phone, and it works. Even with the plugin enabled, you'll have the ability to access the storage card in the browser, but some of the programs won't see it. Hope this helps someone.

Hi, I'm searching for the R815FXXU1FSL3 odin update file (4.0.0.7, OXA) for the galaxy watch. I wanted to change the region to ITV (italy) and I already downgraded to 4.0.0.4 and managed to change it via the old sdb method. Unfortunately the LTE 42mm model was never sold in italy (only the 46mm LTE), so it won't auto update to the latest 4.0.0.7 firmware (the watch is originally from germany). So the only way i can update to 4.0.0.7 while retaining samsung pay is to have the said file.

If someone knows how to get it or has a link please let me know.

Could I perhaps flash the 46mm LTE firmware?
