Bump bump bump.

Have tried using a bruteforce tool, quit after 4 days of failure and gave up. Hopefully someone makes a generator of some kind.
[General Questions and Answers] Mighty Arceus493:
Any help would be much appreciated... Haven't toyed around with phones for some time but I must have gotten into the deep end with this Sony Xperia 5 II, not sure what to do here.

Using OrangeFox recovery, I must have unmounted or done something to the phone's /system mount point because I can't flash any ROMs or restore anything without /system available. While a "System" option does appear in the "Mount" menu's checklist, tapping on it does nothing and I can only mount "Data" and "oem".

Here's what's happening when I try to remount the system via adb:

mount -o remount,rw /system which returns:

mount: /system: mount point does not exist.

Out of curiosity I tried this as well if it's even related:

adb disable-verity but get:

Overlayfs setup failed with error No such device or address
verity not enabled - ENG build

Is there a way to mount /system as a partition given the above doesn't work?
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
Are you sure partition /system physically exists?

If it doesn't exist then re-flash Stock ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] Mighty Arceus493:
Is there a way to check? And if it should exist, can it be created?

Currently the only partitions on the phone are metadata, Data and a pair of storage/sdcard1.

Prior to this issue (or before I mucked around in the recovery), I was able to successfully flash a ROM's system.img but cannot do the same now due to "no such file or directory".

As a result I'm suspecting it might have been there before, but could be wrong.
[General Questions and Answers] Mighty Arceus493:
Ok I'll try getting the stock ROM tomorrow, at the moment the Sony Mobile Flasher tool by Androxyde is stuck on Sending getvar: product so the phone might even have trouble flashing via flash mode.

Are there any other known tools/programs for Sony devices to flash stock firmware with? Or a direct link to a flashable rom could work wonders.
[General Questions and Answers] Mighty Arceus493:
Ok there was no luck using either the Xperia Flash Tool or Newflasher as they both yielded errors or just hang at an early stage in the ROM flashing, made sure it wasn't a driver or USB issue which begets the question...

Does the bootloader need to be re-locked? Currently at work but if there are some ideas worth throwing around I'm all ears.
[General Questions and Answers] Mighty Arceus493:
Resolved, might as well say exactly what worked for me in case it happens to anyone else:

1. Perform a format through the recovery.

2. Download the right firmware through XperiFirm 5.6.1.

3. Move/Copy the downloaded firmware files into Newflasher 4.2. No making subfolders or anything, just move all these files into the same path the newflasher application is in.

4. Not sure if it was a necessary step but I used Unsin 1.13 to extract the boot_X-FLASH-ALL-2389.sin file created from step 2 which created an image (drag and drop this boot_x-etc-etc SIN file into the Unsin executable to extract it).

5. Place the boot_x-etc.img file created via Unsin into the Newflasher folder, just along with all the other files in the directory.

6. Ensure the Xperia 5 II is powered off. Hold the volume down key while plugging it into a USB 2.0 port until the phone's LED goes green.

7. Launch newflasher, and press f. For all other prompts, press n. You should see the stock firmware getting flashed in newflasher.

Will take a few minutes, but is an important step as it rebuilds the system, even going as far as restoring the bootloader to the stock one which you'll see can get booted into rather than a custom recovery as done in step 9 later.

8. Once step 7 is done, unplug the phone to turn it off (or press the power button until the LED goes away).

9. Hold both the power button and volume down keys, and let go of just the power button to enter the bootloader.

10. This is where the option to /mount system can be selected and was successfully mounted (a custom recovery like the one I had could not do this).

11. Now that /system is actually mounted, you can proceed to open fastboot from within the bootloader and go flashing whatever. For example, what I did immediately after mounting /system was open fastboot, plug my phone into the computer and ran all the commands in step 4 for this particular ROM: https://xdaforums.com/t/discontinue...icial-lineageos-18-1-for-xperia-5-ii.4221435/

Pretty explicit, but it explains that all along it was just a matter of reflashing the stock firmware via newflasher which let me enter the default bootloader and mount /system without further problems.

Hope this helps anyone else in the future.

Is it possible to change the sound you here when you press the dial "buttons". On the picture i press 4 and hear a short sound ( "beep" ). My question is. Can I change it?

Suck at english so I don't know exactly what to search for.

Introduction:

Team Win Recovery Project or TWRP for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It's a fully touch driven user interface , no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Key Features:

Touchscreen driven with real buttons and drag-to-scroll

XML-based GUI that allows full customization of the layout true theming!

Settings are saved to the sdcard and persist through reboots

Ability to choose which partitions to back up and which to restore

Ability to choose to compress backups now with pigz (multi-core processor support for faster compression times)

Onscreen keyboard

Easy selection of internal/external storage

In addition to the above new features, TWRP features a scripting engine that allows an app to send commands to the recovery for the recovery to perform during startup. We call this scripting engine OpenRecoveryScript. This engine will be put to use immediately in the GooManager app. GooManager will be able to install recoveries automatically for most supported devices. The app will also let you choose to install multiple zips from within Android, wipe, and run a backup.

We are looking for other talented developers, themers, and device maintainers if they are interested in helping with a free, open source project.

Source Code:

GitHub - https://github.com/TeamWin/android_bootable_recovery

Gerrit Instance - http://gerrit.twrp.me

If you have made your own TWRP build for an unsupported device, please let us know. We might add your build to the list of unofficial builds. Bear in mind that we are working hard to add more devices and we may add your device to our official build list later.

Wow finally Decryption twrp for x3 pro..🎉
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Gelrooss:
anyone try in Poco X3 PRO ?

Thanks.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Gelrooss:
Can it be installed from the current Recovery on a Poco X3 PRO? Or is it not permanent?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] lulzor:
can I flash this if I have arrow recovery?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] ChriMo:
Nice, thanks to the dev. Is there a site/tutorial which explains the differences of the current recovery systems including why for example Arrow OS has its own?

I guess device memory setup,encryption and OTG plays a big role but since I used TWRP the first time years ago I did not keep up with Android/Recovery development much.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] urbanman2004:
Well, I guess that escalated quickly :)

This is awesome news when it comes to custom recovery.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] jorgeepelos:

[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Wolldeyog:
yep, just done that, decryption works so I can finally access the DATA partition.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Luko69:
Installed via previous Orangefox, working OK, decryption OK.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] jngiag:
I have tested it flashing Arrow vanilla version.

1) Able to read and write from Pc to internal storage and sd card.

2) Able to flash rom and Gapp separately.

3) Able to backup and restore.

It is almost like a perfect twrp to me. (y) Thank you.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
Bug report :

Following guides on xiaomi.eu and xda here, before flashing ROMs, "format data".

Data is gone.

"Put the ROM into internal storage."

Connect to PC, internal storage inaccessible from PC !!!

Internal storage was accessible before data wipe.

I tried to boot into system, MIUI loaded, initialization setup done. Reboot to fastboot, flash recovery and boot twrp img, then internal storage accessible again.

So, before flashing a rom, format data.

Done, oh no, internal storage inaccessible by PC AGAIN !!!

Now I'm forced to install rom with microSD, if formatting data is required "before flashing".

I got 3 of this phone, 2 of the are having same issue.

The third is waiting to unlock bl.

Arrow's guide ([ROM] guide, not [GUIDE] guide) had this "wipe data" step "after" zip flashing. So this works.

I'm just wondering if all guides about formatting before flashing rom zip is the must order.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Nebrassy:
After formatting data, you need to reboot twrp, I believe it tells you that while formatting
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
I did reboot again into twrp, even entering fastboot and boot twrp img, but same results if I never let the miui initialize once after formatting.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
Standard way of installing Magisk is by fastboot. Read instruction.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Aki-to:
You can instead use TWRP to install OrangeFox.

I let OrangeFox automatically install Magisk and it worked great. You don't have to do anything, except install the Magisk Addon inside OrangeFox and then reboot.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] FabricioGS:
Used this method https://www.thecustomdroid.com/install-magisk-root-android-devices/ and it worked fine.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] klt832:
Looks like TWRP can not store config files in A12 sdcard folder, thus settings are reset every time you boot to recovery. Well this is understandable but somehow OrangeFox can store config file unencrypted in sdcard so maybe TWRP can learn a thing or two from them.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] therealkurison:
TWRP officially doesn't support A12 yet
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Friend of Bill W.:
There's mention of "just flash via Orangefox" but could you please tell me which partition i have to tick as Orangefox does not do this automatically.

I'm on LOS A11 official

Also my poco x3 pro is encrypted so will i still be able to install TWRP without problems? Or how do I have to decrypt? Thank you!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Reckerr:
Got data error while flashing Arrow OS 12. But seems its working.. I read from a previous post that OTA updates from Arrow OS can just be taken. Can I just continue from here and update TWRP when it fixes Android 12 data issues?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] d_g_m_2000:
i guess... also you can update arrow os via sideload in twrp.. i read that only cdroid has ota updates working. (i think is 'cause encrypt issues)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Actual TWRP do not support Android 12 and can't decrypt internal storage, you need to use ArrowOS recvovery to have acess to all your data via recovery.

Arrowos recovery is more simple but it have everything you need for basic management.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] DarthJabba9:
I understand that you like ArrowOS recovery, and would like to promote it. But perhaps you could explain how exactly does ArrowOS recovery give you access to your encrypted data in a way that TWRP doesn't?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
I don't want to promote it, since atm twrp do not support android 12 encryption and so can't read internal storage, i only suggest to the user above to use a working alternative that do not have such issues.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] DarthJabba9:
Ok. The issue of promotion is not important. My inquiry relates to "how exactly does ArrowOS recovery give you access to your encrypted data in a way that TWRP doesn't?" Specifically, how does ArrowOS recovery allow you to read your internal storage? I have never been able to use it to read my internal storage or anything else on my data partition, so we would all benefit from learning how you have managed to accomplish that.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
You should ask this technical question to the developer, AOS recovery working on my device while twrp don't and killed my internal storage make it not readable anymore and OS do not boot, was forced to format the whole partition to make it available again. Installing the same rom via AOS no issues at all, very smooth. This was my personal experience.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] DarthJabba9:
You are describing different things. It is one thing to have suffered a flash failure with twrp, and quite another thing to say that ArrowOS recovery allows you to read your internal storage - there is no connection between the two. I don't need to ask the ArrowOS developer anything, because I know that ArrowOS recovery does not provide access via recovery to your internal storage. Feel free to prove me wrong.

All this talk about other recoveries is all off-topic in this thread of course. But I have flashed ArrowOS successfully with twrp (and OrangeFox), and I am yet to see one thing that can be done with ArrowOS recovery that cannot be done via twrp or OrangeFox.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Dunno, then maybe something goes wrong, possible my fault, first time i also flashed succesfully Arrow 12 with twrp from Arrow 11, but after i flashed the next update it broke my internal storage returning errors on the partition and do not boot the OS anymore.

unable to mount storage

unable to mount /data/ (invalid argoument)

Was forced to erase my internal storage to make it available again, after that i changed to AOS recovery (like the dev suggested), boot into recovery, press apply update option, and succesfully flashed both zipped rom and zipped firmware after. Didn't have such storage failure anymore. This was my experience. Apologize if i didn't explained properly and for the off-topic.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] popej:
Official version 3.6.1_11-0 has been released. Has anyone tested it?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] satanas17:
Just done now... Internal sadly still at 0mb...
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kra_ppo:
Works with latest Arrow 12 GAPPS Version. Both: Internal and SD-Card. I managed to dity upgrade Arrow 12 to latest version by install image in TWRP.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] satanas17:
So u can make a save ?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] kd276:
Are you stuck with OS loop at logo? Have you tried with this guide? In my case solved the 0Gb internal storage issue.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] satanas17:
No no, everything go well, my phone boots well...

This is just the result that i can see when i launch recovery, same than previous version.

So no, for me, no necessary to upgrade, still doesn't able to read internal and, of course, make saves.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] XblackdemonX:
No it's still 0MB. cannot decrypt data
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] zorak20:
Hi!! I have a couple of questions regarding TWRP maybe you can help me:

1. When we get the new version with decryp abilities, would updating to that one will erase my phone o I can do it with a dirty install?

2. If I do a nand backup now, will it back anything taking into consideration that everything is encrypted or only my internal sd data is?

Thanks!!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Friend of Bill W.:
Hi guys, unfortunately I´m still unsure if and how I can switch to TWRP recovery from Orangefox :oops:

I don´t want to start from scratch again.

So can I just install the zip via Orangefox and do I have to chose a partition at all?

Your help would be really appreciated
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Popletenec:
Flash recovery from fastboot.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Odeya:
Hi guys,

I just need to ask some question before im trying to unlock my bootloader and install Custom ROM, right now i was waiting for 7 days period time to unlock my poco, right now it was on Miui 13 (Android 12) there is some consideration that comes in my mind:

1. From what i read TWRP does not yet support A12, so should i still flash the TWRP even though it does not support A12? Or should i just go adb sideload way?

2. If i go with adb sideload way, in the Custom ROM instructions says "temporary recovery" does this means after i successfully installed Custom ROM my recovery will be back to stock miui recovery?

Any answers will be appreciated for a noob like me! Thanks!
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
TWRP still works in A12, the only thing is that it's not able to read internal storage data. The writing ablilty is still intact.

If you know how to use adb sideload, go for it.

Alternatively, you can insert microSD card or USB OTG. TWRP can read those 2 storage.

temporary recovery is most likely refer to the command

fastboot boot twrp_image_name.img

Custom recovery will vanish after reboot with this command.

You can still overwrite recovery.

Only official MIUI will overwrite recovery to MIUI recovery every boot.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Odeya:
Ah thank you so much for this, so which one would you prefer and safer, go for twrp and use otg, or adb sideload?

And as for the temporary recovery, so custom recovery will vanish which mean there are no recovery? or i can just flash any custom recovery at any time after installing custom ROM?

Sorry as im still learning all this 😁
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] satanas17:
Sideload needs to be done with your computer.

Twrp and OTG or SD card are stand-alone.

You can do your updates with twrp, you just need to copy downloaded file from OTA to your SD card or OTG device.

By the way, you must be rooted to access that downloaded file, located in root directory under root/data/arrowos_updates.

For being persistent, your recovery must be flashed.

The command above just launch it one time.

To flash it, command is :

fastboot flash recovery (recovery filename)
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Odeya:
Ah okay ill get it, i might go with sideload, but the only thing that i still get confused is that the instructions of custom rom it says:

Temporarily flash a recovery on your device by typing (replace <recovery_filename> with the actual filename!):

fastboot flash boot <recovery_filename>.img

Does this means that the recovery was only temporary just for installing the custom rom? or should i use the command that you give to permanently flash it?

Sorry i think my question is already out of topic 😁
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
From where did you see this instruction ?

This command likely will make your Poco X3 pro not able to boot to system, causing a soft brick or only booting into custom recoveries.

The correct command to flash recovery permanently for Poco X3 pro is as stated by satanas17 :

fastboot flash recovery <recovery_filename>.img

Here is picture guide on how to flash the recovery into your phone:

https://xdaforums.com/t/4288121/post-85137963

Section 2 step 12 and 13 to flash TWRP.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Odeya:
Thank you for your reply,

I copied this command from PE custom rom installation guide, and checked on LOS installation guide its the same command, it was installation guide if you were using adb sideload, thats why i was confused, why would i temporarily boot to custom recovery without flashing it, doesnt that means the recovery will be missing.

So now i have to use the command you guys give and flash the PE custom recovery permanently? Im at Android 12 now btw
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
LOS installation guide did not write that command for Poco X3 Pro.

It wrote the same as how we told you:

You probably read the command from other place for other phone.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Odeya:
ah yes! you were right, this is how it looks on PE custom rom wiki

see number 5, so this one is wrong right? better follow the one on LOS right?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
Follow as LOS.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Odeya:
Okay! Thank you so much, one more thing, if i wanted to use TWRP recovery to install custom rom or anything through my OTG my device has to be rooted?
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] pl1992aw:
Root is not needed.
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] Odeya:
Okay thank you so much for your time 😁

Hi would be nice to know if

- You did any modification

- is this an official twrp recovery

- if so credits go to whom

- if official link would be good

TY
[Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro] samsungics1200:
its based from the latest Nebrassy build a12 encryption supported i did modify twrp.flags from system/etc/ and added this line:

/storage ext4 /data/media/0 flags=display="Internal Storage";usermrf;backup=1;fsflags="bind";removable

/metadata_image emmc /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/metadata flags=display="Metadata_Image";backup=1;flashimg=1

To enable the detection of internal storage as well as backup restore function
