Awesome Thanx again

Can anyone verify if the official TWRP can actually perform full backups? I keep getting a backup failed error whenever I try backing up my Moto X4 A1 and it reaches approx. 88%-90%.
Update: After digging through other xda forums I found out it's because Moto x4 phones automatically encrypts your /data partition. You'll know this if you boot into TWRP and it asks for a password for decryption, and it seems the password is whatever you used for your lock-screen. TWRP should work once you entered the correct password.
Update2: Can't restore recovery. I get the message "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255" when it tries to restore the bluetooth partition, and if I skip restoration of the bluetooth partition I get "Failed to mount '/system ' (Structure needs cleaning)" and then the phone doesn't get past the boot logo. I'm guessing the official TWRP still needs work?

GT-P5100 stuck after failed encryption (update went wrong)

Tablet: GT-P5100
Recovery: TWRP 2.8.5.0
ROM on tablet: CM 12.1 (at least i think, cannot check)
What happend:
After a failed update (could have been low battery) i got the message in safemode that encryption had failed and i had to factory reset.
What did i do:
Rebooted into recovery and tried to factory reset. That failed. With the error message the /data failed to mount.
Since the data on it was unimportant i followed a fix that suggested changing the partition type to something else then EXT4 and then change it back to EXT4.
This sadly also failed.
Tried flashing the original ROM with Odin, but while it started (could see progress on the computer and tablet) it failed at system.img (upload got stuck after 50% i think and failed after a while)
Any ideas? its an old tablet which i mainly use to fill in web forms while i'm working and check manuals. So if i destroy it now its no big deal and i will get a 2nd hand 3g/4g one for cheap.

Nothing changed. Still same TWRP recovery and encryption failed message. In TWRP its still *****ing about unable to mount data

failed to mount vendor (invalid argument) -- SOLVED

Updating partition details... Failed to mount vendor (invalid argument)
The error above is one I faced today and I resolved. I decided to share this in case anyone else runs into a similar issue. There are very few ways you could end up unable to correctly boot a partition but the most common is a bad flash. In my particular case, it was my own stupidity, and it could have been a lot worse given that I mistakenly flashed a vendor image file to /vendor/ except it was for a completely different device and not meant for the Moto x4 (basically got confused between files from another project).
The result of this was that my phone could not technically boot on its own. Neither into a GSI/ROM or into Recovery either. I saw the first "Android One" logo, followed by the message warning that my phone was unlocked, followed by the second "Android One" logo, which was all normal up to that point, but I would remain forever stuck at that screen. I could thankfully reach the bootloader screen, but again, since I could not boot at all, I could not even boot into Recovery from the bootloader screen.
Thankfully, because I could still reach bootloader I could temporarily load into TWRP using fastboot
Code:
fastboot boot '/your_path_here/twrp-X.X.X-X-payton.img'
From here I uploaded "Copy Partitions Zip" - courtesy of @filipepferraz https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oiry9UfP2tf-5A6nQBF7pn2t2eSGKt0F/view and installed
Rebooted back to bootloader and while at bootloader, I loaded the Android 8.1 firmware - courtesy @ptn107 https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=890278863836292604
From bootloader, I reloaded the bootloader again
This alone did not resolve my issue. I once used fastboot to temporarily load TWRP
Code:
fastboot boot '/your_path_here/twrp-X.X.X-X-payton.img'
Installed TWRP https://dl.twrp.me/payton/
Installed LineageOS ROM -- It must be a full ROM and not a GSI. It must be specifically made for Moto x4 and not just a generic GSI (stock rom for example)
Reinstalled TWRP
Reboot
During the installs, you may still see the error. Ignore them as they will go away after the reboot. This will resolve such issues should you ever face them.

Fastboot loop in already rooted OnePlus 7 Pro

I've done a bit of digging but I'm on a time crunch, and frankly I don't want to dig myself in a deeper hole.
I was attempting to make a backup of my OnePlus 7 Pro prior to doing an OTA update while preserving root.
I was getting a "failed to mount" and "0mb storage" so I looked into fixes and found this:
How to Fix TWRP Unable to Mount Storage, Internal Storage 0MB - Appuals.com
Some TWRP users, especially those who install custom ROMs, sometimes run into an issue where TWRP will an error that reads “Unable to mount storage”. The
appuals.com
.
I followed this and got to the point where I attempted to change file system from ext4 to ext2 and back again.
After doing this however I got stuck in a bootloop.
I entered TWRP recovery and tried to mount and boot? to system, and now I'm totally stuck on a fastboot loop -- unable to access TWRP.
I have several tools on my laptop saved from the initial root process such as the Tool All In One and the MSM download tool.
I would just like some clear direction to proceed. I'd rather not have to essentially reset my device, as I'm pretty sure all my data is in the device but I think I'm in the wrong partition. I'm just not savvy enough to know how to get it without causing further issues.
Any help would be great. I'm leaving for a 12 hour shift now, so I can't do any more digging on my own.
Thanks in advance.
Lower TWRP version.. is the fix, but.. i dont known anything about the OnePlus serie

[Pixel 3a][Android 11][ROOTED][TWRP 3.6.0] stuck at recovery after TWRP restore of full phone backup

Hello!
I am trying to restore a TWRP backup of the whole phone but after the restore, I always get booted into the recovery.
I took the backup by:
Bash:
adb backup --twrp backup.ab
Here is how I am trying to restore the backup
Reflash stock android firmware (same version as the backup)
Boot into stock android and setup pin
Boot into recovery
Connect to PC
Bash:
adb restore backup.ab
Wait until the restore completes. It seems that there is no error during the restore.
Reflash Magisk v24.1
Try to reboot
Upon reboot into TWRP I am greeted with this message:
Android Rescue Party trigger! Wipe data and caches and/or clean-flash you ROM!
The reported problem is:
'--reason=set_policy_failed:/data/misc'
E: Unable to decrypt FBE device
Failed to decrypt data.
Unable to decrupt with default password. You may need to perform a Format Data.

Is there anything I am doing wrong? How could I debug this problem?
Here are some relevant info about the phone:
Android 11.0.0 (RQ3A.211001.001, Oct 2021)
Pixel 3a
TWRP 3.6.0 : twrp-3.6.0_11-0-sargo.img
Magisk v24.1
Thank you
Same here. I've spent a few days trying different methods and nothing works. Looks like it's a bug in TWRP.

Afternoon matey, not to sure if this is helpful or not, may not be even specific to your device, but the error is the same error, so may shine a little light on the error.
