I have a backup file of my device p20 lite from PC this backup size is 15gb and i don't have memory card or USB Flash Drive i want to restore it using pc. I've TWRP installed on my device is there any way to restore from pc?
If you have the TWRP of Pretoriano80 you can connect your device to the PC while it is inside the TWRP. This TWRP allows you to transfer files from the PC to the device since it has the MTP function enabled, so you simply have to take the backup and pass it to your internal memory and restore it (if you lack space format the data and system from advanced wipe)

Is there any way I can use the terminal inside twrp and copy all files from the internal memory onto the sd/ USB OTG?
My device is stuck in a bootloop and I need to wipe all data to get it working again
And I've forgotten to take a backup of all my personal data
My father had a softbrick of his Galaxy S2 without having done a backup in the last 6 month.
Now he need some data that are stored on the phone so I cannot do a wipe data factory reset and I was wondering if I install a custom recovery can I move all the datas on the Sdcard and then read them from a microsd card reader?
Will installing a new recovery change the data?
Thanks
EDIT:
I solved the problem.
First I installed the Philz CWM recovery, that I reboot the phone in recovery Mode and chosed to mount as USB drive so I could copy the content of Sdcard.
Then I did a backup of data and system Partition through the backup menu on an external Sd card, after that I did a wipe/factory reset and the Phone reboot regularly
To recover the information that you need from the Backup can you use TitaniumBackup
I'm quite sure that the /data partition will stay untouched, since the recovery image is installed in another partition.
BTW, on some recoveries I was able to connect the phone to the computer and to read internal storage. Are you sure it's the data partition you need? The only thing stored in this partition are apps and app data. Images etc are on the internal storage (sdcard0).
Hope this helps.
I thought that Data and Sdcard were the same partition, what I need is to recover contacts and Viber/whatsapp message and images.
If I install a Custom recovery can I do a backup of everything and could I use adb to do a complete copy of the sdcard?
Thanks
Hi All,
Maybe a bit of a stupid question but accidentally change the format of my internal storage and have wiped my TWRP backup that I was trying to save.
Was meant to format my SD card so I could read it on my PC, as my phone was stuck on a boot loop from installing dorimanx kernel, was working for a little bit but the phone became extremely sluggish and then one one reboot would not get pasted the kernel splash page.
So decided to go backup the phone copy to pc them wipe and start clean. With the fun of this twrp was not showing mtp and could not read any mounted storage due to the format type decided to go a format my sd card to fat but accidentally done internal rather than external, I was falling asleep but want to try and fix this before going to bed.
Now that has happen I have mount the fat internal drive and trying to use some HDD recovery program but not sure how this will end up working, fingers cross I can get the TWRP backup.
But if anyone has any advised would greatly appreciate the help.
Dorimax kernel with twrp iso recovery, can't mount mtp or usb! flash iso rec disabler, then mount your usb partition with cwm recovery from dorimax! after that, try recuva! it will make a clone of your internal memory on hdd to access data faster! otherwise the deep scan will be very slow! try other programs! you will find your files with some programs and other files with another programs.

Thanks for the reply I ended up able to mount as USB after the format due to being FAT so ran the tool didn't find much so looks like a lost everything lesson learn backup and dump on PC for safe keeping
Try to use other programs to see if you can find your files
Hey guys I wonder if it is possible to save twrp backup of a rom in a pc in order to get more free on sd or internal!
Just transfer the backup on PC. If you want to restore your backup then transfer it back on your phone.

Hi, one question,
I made TWRP backup full in phone memory.
Via MTP i cant copy all files (from TWRP folder) to PC on turn on phone in normal mode, only all files could be copied from MTP on TWRP. Why i have access to all files from TWRP backup only from MTP on TWRP?
