[Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra] TechNo1geek:
So, I backedup my Mi 11 Ultra on CN rom, then copied the folder to an external SSD, now a few days later (im going home) I choose to Install Global 14.0.2 with fastboot + wipe, and now I can't restore the backup. It seems i;m missing 3 Descript files, named.

all_descript.xml

descript.xml

select_descript.xml

(some snippet of code?) note this is a test backup after formatting to Global 14.0.2. (original backup was on CN 14.0.9)

all_descript.xml	descript.xml	select_descript.xml

Now, I could run a script to make a new version of it for the folders, and files, however that would take forever.

Is there anyway to restore without using xiaomi's backup software, and if anyone's willing to help me make a script or some way to solve this that't be great!
