TWRP Backup: twrp xiaomi failed to mount /vendor structure needs cleaning - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello,
I made some Backups with TWRP on my Xiaomi Remi Note 5 before.
When I tried now, I get this Error:
Failed to mount '/vendor' (Structure needs cleaning)
The filesize of "vendor" looks a bit strange (see picture).
I think there is a problem with the file-system. When I try to repair the filesystem I get:
Error:4 unable to repair filesystem.
Any help to fix this problem appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ingo

Till now, I did nothing and just leave it as it is. I want to flash the 9.6.4 Firmware (it is on now) and not the upgrade to Miui 10 because of the downgrade problem.
But I worry if I brick the phone when flashing the 9.6.4. So, I wait for the problem solving itself
Maybe you try it and report?
:angel:

i have same problem like you, and solved my problem.
1. enter recovery (twrp)
2. enter wipe data, checklist vendor
3. repair file system, change file system, look your vendor type. mine is ext4. so, i choose ext4. swipe
sorry for my bad english.

O.K., I tried that. No so good, ended in a reboot-loop
I put back one my old Backups (the last which was working before the vendor-partition-**** started. Now I have to configure the phone again to get it working for me.
After that I will have a look on the vebdor partition, if it is o.k. again.

It looks that you have a Redmi Note 5 pro (Whyred) so Redmi 5 Plus (Vince) doesn´t have any issue with downgrading. I guess this happened cause you flashed at some time a pie rom and then to it vendor is not longer used; maybe it solves wiping vendor partition.

I think, i did not flash apie rom, cause I don't know what that is
I only rootet it, installed TWRP and Magisk.
And yes, it is a Whyred.
The Vendor-Partition is still broken.
I can make a Backup with TWRP, but without the System. When I try to Backup System as well, I get the error:
Code:
Invalid encryption mode file /data/unencrypted/mode

Does it help if I post the complete TWRP-Log?

Check if you swipe to allow modifications in recovery.
In this case it could be that your vendor partition is missing and it may solved by flashing stock rom again through MiFlash Tool if you´re not in ARB top code.
Also this recovery is actually better with more functions https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...ment/twrp-orangefox-recovery-project-t3837547 and if you switch to it you can share also there the issue so this forum is for vince and is not allowed to treat and solve here issues from other device.

Back again....
I installed the FOX recovery and tried the same repair and backup stuff. Also the "swipe to allow modifications" was on.
No success, "Vendor" eg. "system" Partition still damaged.
Then I installed the 9.6.4 Image via FOX. After that the partition was O.K. again. The installed Apps are untouched.
But now I face a new problem. Making a backup via FOX on to the SD-Card won't work because FOX claims the free space on the SD is 51 MB, but it is actually 51 GB.
I will try to go back to TWRP an see how that works.
Thanks

TWRP Img mount not tested yet
Instructions:
Flash twrpimgmount_ramdisk.img through fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrpimgmount_ramdisk.img
Press and hole both volume + power on to boot to erecovery OR volume up + power on to boot to twrp (i don't know which combination is of which one) i suggest you to flash twrp to erecovery_ramdisk partition using twrp too.
Backup/restore and flash image functions are tested for system/vendor/product/version/cust/oeminfo/recovery/recovery2/boot rest of them are not tested by me but should work.

TWRP on my OREO Beta Not Detecting My Phone on Pc no Response Please Check Ur Recovery
Can I do this with the Bnd-L24 model that has the bootloader unlocked with TWRP installed?
Great bhai
I was able to get twrp booted, but had issues backing up system & data
its mentioned elsewhere, but i didn't see mentioned here. this twrp is unable to read the /sdcard partition (internal storage), so you have to use a microsd card (external_sdcard).
My Process: (BND-L24 USA Honor 7x Oreo)
in bootloader:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrpimgmount_ramdisk.img
then reboot phone into recovery by holding both volume buttens + power
(i guess the ramdisk is loaded instead of the stock recovery)
once in twrp, i backed up the MANY partitions to my microsd card.
the backup failed for 2 partitions:
1) Data
Code:
createTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255
2) System
failed at 87%, no error in the backup log, however the log was speckled with
Code:
unable to find partition for path '/system'
UPDATE: i was able to backup system using the file "complete_twrp_ramdisk.img" attached to this thread.
Other notes regarding this TWRP:
Computer doesn't see phone via USB
TWRP reports "no OS installed"
TWRP cannot read /sdcard (internal storage)
I look forward to trying future versions, and would be happy to help test things on my device if devs don't have this specific model.

Computer doesn't see phone via USB - Known bug
TWRP reports "no OS installed" - Intentional, it has to work like this.
TWRP cannot read /sdcard (internal storage) - Your internal sd is encrypted and this twrp has no decryption support

Hi, I'm glad to report that although the first recovery that is twrpimgmount_ramdisk.img failed to backup system as I got the same error message as above but I was able to flash some other partitions like kernel, recovery etc... I actually selected a bunch of them.
Anyway most importantly after flashing the complete_twrp_ramdisk.img, I was able to backup system successfully. I'm using the Indian variant BND AL10 MODEL. I hope this helps some one out there.
I have a dumb question: Now, that the system is backed up with twrp, if I mess up my phone ever, can I simply restore this system img and be able to boot back into the os? Do I need to install any other partitions? I don't care about data. Please let me know.
Hi, I flashed this complete_twrp_ramdisk.img and now I want to go back to stock recovery of oreo which is bnd_recovery_nocheck.img from the other post. I tried using adb and it fails. I tried using the this twrp but it shows a lot of partitions to choose from and I'm confused example: ramdisk recovery, recovery_vendor, recovery_ramdisk etc... there are sooooooo many. I tried recovery_vendor and also ramdisk but it doesn't work. Can you please tell me how to install the stock recovery?
Does anybody have a BND-L21 backup of the system partition?
Edit: nvm i found it
Can someone tell me how to install stock recovery after installing the above complete_twrp_ramdisk.img as I'm unable to flash using adb. I tried "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" and also "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img" I tried flashing the BND_recovery_nocheck.img from the other post which is a stock one.
I also tried flashing it using this twrp to the partition recovery_ramdisk and gives the error saying "the size is larger than the device" Please someone help.
I have tried couple times to install new release
twrp_ramdisk_oreo_7-4-18.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But I can only get to twrp splash screen.
OP change-log has no information about this new release, so maybe is still not ready.
telegram group has mention of this , but did not help Yet.
**EDIT**
It was suggested by DEV in telegram to just be patient and try again. This third time installed 4-7-2018 released version it loaded right into recovery, without any delay.
Don't know if it is coincidence or not but before I was on RRos ROM. and now I am back on EMUI 8
Well, the mess here you have gentlemen, nichrome you do not understand where the root for 7ku, where to 8ku, what tvrp to put for 8ki for everyday needs.
---------- Post added at 03:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------
Which TWRP can I put in order to flush the root on the 8th oreo?
What TWRP should I be using on RROS Room? In order to install Magisk?
what are the 2 images with dates for? twrp_ramdisk_oreo_19-4-18.img and twrp_ramdisk_oreo_7-4-18.img?
i tried flashing both in twrp after using fastboot to flash the inistial ramdisk and neither one boot into recovery they get stuck at the twrp splash screen but the image labeled complete_twrp_ramdisk.img boots fine.

[TWRP][AROMA][WT88047] Resize System partition Easily

With this tool is possible resize the system partition.

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Precautions and warnings:
This procedure will erase your ROM. Internal storage will also be erased, including photos, videos, music and backups.
Increasing the size of the system will decrease the internal storage in the same proportion, when using previous backup consider this, if the backup is too large it may not fit in the new partitioning.
To prevent bootloop, use a permanent installation of TWRP, do not use temporary boot.
I am not responsible for bricked devices or dead SD cards.
Use at your own risk
Instructions:
Part 1
1- Copy zip installer to external SD card, otherwise installation will be canceled. do not forget to also copy the custom rom and the gapps.
2- The installer uses Aroma ui, it is possible to choose several size for the system partition: 1GB, 1.25GB, 1.5GB, 1.75GB, 2GB, 2.25GB and 2.5GB.
3- Optionally it is possible to create a new partition, the vendor partition, it is required in the project treble and only used with treble roms and vendor partition compatible with Redmi 2.
4- The installer also creates a backup of some changed partitions and restores them automatically, a copy(110MB) is sent to the external SD card if an emergency restore is required.
5- After choosing all the options select Start, if all the requirements have been fulfilled the repartitioning will happen, otherwise it will be interrupted before any alteration. Then press the Reboot button to end.
Part 2
The most recent rom installer comes with the system inside an image file, it has the default size, and after installing the rom it is necessary to expand the file system so that it can see the new size.
This can be done with Twrp in the wipe advaced menu, but to make it easier I did an additional installer to do this task.
So summarizing:
1- Install 1Resize-System-Redmi2.zip (only when changing system size partition).
2- install your Custom-Rom.zip
3- install 3Expand-filesystem-Redmi2.zip (always required after installing custom rom and before gapps, this releases new size to use).
4- install gapps.zip
5- done !

Sorry my English.

[update]
v1.01: added reboot(recovery) after installation.
v1.03: (experimental) added option to create vendor partition and auxiliary zip installer.
Looks very cool! Have you heard of @Lanchon's RePIT? Similar idea but without the GUI. Perhaps you guys could collaborate? https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/tool-lanchon-repit-data-sparing-t3358036
Edit: sorry it did not work. only the internal storage got reduced but the system partition remained the same.

Edit 2: So i was able to re-partition the system using the above script (i mean the script works). But after i installed lineageos 15.1 the system partition returned back to 1gb. Can anyone give me a solution for this? i tried the resize system after rom install but it failed. :crying:

With me it works, but twrp only displays new size after exiting the wipe menu.
Then return to the main menu and enter the wipe menu again.
Error message appears if you press the "resize file system" button twice in a row.

Is it possible to use this to only use Aroma's Remove stock apps functionality, without having to download and install the full Aroma? Can it be done without reinstalling/wiping the rom?
intresting
Where can I download this apps for other mobiles?
I need it for the Xiaomi Mi8.
Is it compatible?
Can I flash other ROMs such as Xiaom.eu if I have resized the partitions ?
Thanks
---------- Post added at 01:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 AM ----------
What about resizing the data and cache partitions?
What partition is the culprit of the error of insuficient size when installing new apps?
Once resized will it remain 2gb forever or will it revert back to 1 gb as soon as I flash a custom rom?
I want to flash treble rom and then android p gsi files. So I need the vendor partition right?
thanks, it works for me

Please do include the build.prop tweaks mentioned here - those are quite necessary for the device to function as a tablet.

None of those P GSIs boot.
Anyone able to root using Magisk on v9.6.23 boot.img (http://en.miui.com/thread-3538488-1-1.html)? Magisk patched boot.img doesn't seems to boot for me and I have to revert to stock boot.img.
Edit: hah, never mind. I forgot to disable forceencrypt when i flashed the new stock kernel and it encrypted data. Had to wipe data and unencrypt to root again.

Could You please write with recovery version is this? There are 2 recovery versions as of 2018.7.13 and 2018.7.11 with description like bellow:
2018.7.13 update
1. Fix the problem of not recognizing the external memory card.
2. After brushing in twrp, the first time you enter twrp, it may restart once. This is normal. If you restart repeatedly, or you cannot decrypt the data, please give me feedback in time.
2018.7.11 update:
1. Update the attempt to repair the decrypted data, and expect whether the follow-up can reach the expected.
2. After brushing in twrp, the first time you enter twrp, it may restart once. This is normal. If you restart repeatedly, or you cannot decrypt the data, please give me feedback in time.

I booted my pad with Your recovery and I can't see external SD card, so I expect that is the 2018.7.11 version. Am I right?
Hi again.
I found on another forum recovery that supports external sd-card. It's: recovery-TWRP-3.2.2-0713-MIPAD4-RuEn-Kirhe.img and it's working fine on my mi pad 4

Hi !
What's the difference between ab version and aonly version ?
EDIT: I flash today Android Pie GSI version.
After flashing GSI, you can found Open GAPPS unofficial here: https://builds.nezorfla.me/?dir=opengapps/pie/arm64
For no error 70, before flashing Open GAPPS, you must do that: Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Select System -> Repair or Change File System -> Resize File System -> Swipe to Resize
After, you can flash Open GAPPS, Magisk (for root) and Dm-Verity, and finally reboot

Have you also flashed the misc file together with the TWRP? Or in this version there is no need?

MiPad4 is only a partition. There is no b partition for seamless updates.
So far I didn't install any GSI but I've have installed China stable, developer and xiaomi.eu roms and I didn't have to resize system partitions. An ROMs are bigger maybe that's why You need to extend partitions but installation should end with error because of lack "b" partition
AICP 8.1 GSI works fine.

So your whole thing is useless? Rooting and installing TWRP was already possible, the problem was the lockscreen thing. Pretty pointless post if its not fixed.

Just try the recovery i uploaded once.(I recompiled IT)
And did we have force encryption disabler before for android pie?
====
one more thing i am working on knox right now if anybody intrested can help me link
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...inally-samsung-cheks-knox-bootloader-t3937529
My question is: Did you fix the thing that broke the lockscreen and the Samsung Account?
If not: Why did you rebrand TWRP when we already have a TWRP for the A6+ and why did you pretty much copy ashyx's Oreo Forced encryption disabler? You changed something in the fstab file and you removed ashyx's name in the updater-script.
Is there a problem with rooting a6+? That lockscreen etc?

Yes that problem does exists but if you have mistakenly set a password or pattern you can do this
Delete (or rename) the following files inside /data/system (note that probably not all of them exist for you, simply delete those you can find) in TWRP RECOVERY:
password.key
pattern.key
locksettings.db-wal
locksettings.db-shm
locksettings.db
Is it possible to get the device tree used to build this TWRP ?
Thank you in advance !

In pie update samsung has used some new security method even if you flash custom kernal or you have
Set warrenty bit kernal . Elwarning you will not be able to login to samsung account even if you are not rooted.
And if you restore a data bacup of oreo using twrp
All the data would get restored except the samsung account.
Even when modifying a single file in sytem partition and then restoring stock bootimage(i.e. unrooting) would land you in boot loop

1. No you can log in to your samsung account in oreo even if you are rooted
2.You will not face any problem unless your pie is rooted.
3. Be carefull you can trip knox(if its still not triped).

don't use that but Miflash or better download the Fastboot rom correspond to the rom you want to install (the last one seems) then extract the zip from the TGZ file and run the flash all.bat included in the zip.

i noticed that the error always occurs after writing the same file
in my case "odmdtbo" at this point I have:
error : status_sec_img_too_large (0xc0020005)
hint
Verified boot in enabled .
Please download signed image(cust-verified.img) or disable verified boot .
I can't find info to disable verification.
the file is safe and I tried like this:
disconnect phone, uncheck write files before the error
connect phone, write, answer: writing completed disconnect phone
invert selection of file writing boxes (check for no selection errors)
connect phone write
writing completed disconnect phone
turn on phone in fastboot mode
turns on and enters fastboot
SP_Flash_Tool does not connect to the phone (first attempt)
test connection with Mi Flash, here it is ok
select file to write,
ok start writing never ends.
fastboot always ok
I'll try again tomorrow.
i can't understand these writing problems
