As everyone already knew, MIUI 8 is not only available for China Developer ROM, it's not yet available for Global. I was on Global MIUI 7 Developer, I was very curious about MIUI 8. So, I tried to flash it through TWRP. Before I flash, I backed up all partitions on TWRP.
Fast forward 20 minutes, MIUI 8 flashed properly, but I want to go back to my original Global Developer MIUI 7. So, I tried to restore every partition through TWRP with the backup I did. Every partition restored successfully, except "Firmware". It gives error "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255"
In recovery log, it shows that "tar_extract_file(): failed to restore SELinux context ubject_r:vfat:s0 to file" for a lot of files.
It booted up normally, but it failed to detect my SIM card. Wifi working, just no SIM. Baseband version unknown, can't enter Phone Status, SIM cards & mobile networks greyed out. Phone tells that Can't get valid Device ID (Invalid Device ID: null)
Anyone did experienced this? Any solution?
Use twrp to restore again , this time exclude the firmware partition (restore all other partition except firmware). After the restoration complete , use MiFlashTool to flash back the Miui 7 stable

Unofficial TWRP 3.1.0-0 Moto G5 (cedric)
Latest TWRP changelog :
New features of 3.1.1-0 (adb backup, tweaked MTP startup routines and plenty of bug fixes - for full changelog)
Download Link
twrp-3.1.1-0-cedric.img
Working/Bugs
I have just tested on 16 GB variant and all seems to be working. If something is broken lemme know.
IMPORTANT NOTE :
At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either SuperSU or flash any of the verity disabler zips there in xda
Force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS and twrp will successfully decrypt /data at first boot if all goes well
If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data
Installation Guide
Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
Reboot to bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp-****.img (if you want permanent flash) or fastboot boot twrp-****.img (if you want temporary

xt1670 model
Hi Santhosh
Will this TWRP work on Moto G5 model xt1670?
If so, can it be rooted using twrp temporary boot?
EDIT: I have tried this several time, I'm always getting stuck at boot, after the first data wipe, only solution is to install stock system again.
I have the Modem Version: M8937_8000.122.02.40R, 32GB
I'm offering to test
Thanks
Works fine for the most part, though reboot options Bootloader and Power Off doesn't work, just restarts normally.

So i believe TWRP works as intended and root is also achieved via phh/whatever?
If all works fine for you would like you to make reply in the thread with detailed flashing instructions as i am not sure why few in thread have issues
can this version of twrp be used for POTTER version of moto G5 plus?
After installing TWRP my Phone stucks at the "Your device has been unlocked" screen. My system seems to be gone. I've downloaded the image from the other thread and tried to sideload it, but twrp says it's in the wrong format. TWRP boots fine
(Anyone who can upload a fully working NANDROID or sth like that?)
What can i do :/?
Edit: Solved. Unzipped the firmware and flashed manually via fastboot. Working fine!
But then again at the startup of the recovery, there's the encryption message. What to wipe now, that it'll work? Wiping /data ends in boot loop...

Did you tried wiping data, and formatting data? Remember that wiping /data is where your apps and settings are stored, and formatting /data/media is the massive storage... Maybe if you wipe both it would work

No longer supported
Unofficial TWRP 3.1.1 w/F2FS
> For the Nexus 6 Shamu
This work is inspired by @The Flash's F2FS TWRP builds. I based this build off of the TWRP Minimal Repo.Features:
TWRP 3.1.1
F2FS Mounting and Formatting supported (En/Decryption not supported, however)
Built atop my kernel
Works
Changelog:
3.1.1-3
Updated sources to 7.1.2_r33, which includes updated f2fs-tools (1.8.0)
Minor GUI tweaks (splash screen, odd gap under "Advanced")
Bump to subversion 3
Installation:
You should know the drill of installing custom recoveries if you found this thread, but anyways:
Have an UNLOCKED Bootloader
Boot to fastboot/bootloader mode (Power + Vol Down from power off)
In adb (replace X with appropriate subversion):
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1_X-f2fs-unofficial-shamu.img
You can now reboot to your shiny, new TWRP!
How Do I convert to F2FS?
Backup important data to an EXTERNAL source; if formatting /data, entire internal sd will be wiped.
Ensure your kernel/kernel you will flash supports F2FS. You can use my kernel if you desire.
Reboot to this (or any other) F2FS supported TWRP
Go to -> Wipe -> Advanced Wipe
Tick the desired partition you want to format (ONLY do /data and/or /cache)
Select "Repair or Change Filesystem"
Select "Change File System"
Select "F2FS"
Swipe to Change
Done. Flash all your stuff!

How do i make it keep my settings. Every time i boot into twrp i have to swipe to allow modifications and need to set settings again. Also it does not see my backups i made with previous twrp 3.1.1-0
Thanks a lot for this. Does it properly decrypt F2FS data?

I don't use encryption so I cannot say. If you can test it for me that would be appreciated
UPDATE:
TWRP Official 3.1.0 changelog states TWRP will try to mount both ext4 and f2fs on decrypt, so It should work.

It should not reset your settings every time you boot into recovery, unless there is something wrong with your /sdcard/TWRP folder. Can you send a recovery log (Advanced > Copy Log)?
Will do that after finishing the install of the rom i am doing now.

Thank you. I ask because I am not having that issue at all. Maybe also try re-flashing recovery via fastboot before everything too.
what i did was this. Booted into bootloader. erased recovery, flashd your recovery and booted into it. wiped to allow changes and made changges to settings. Then booted back into rom. The rom i tried it with was stock 7.1.1.
I just finished installing velocity rom and flashed your twrp, same result. I did copy the log. said in twrp that it was copied to /data/media/recovery.log but the log is no were to be found on the phone. Did search the whole phone with root explorer

when i try to do a backup i get error unable to mount storage
---------- Post added at 20:10 ---------- Previous post was at 20:00 ----------
I think the problem is something else. Not sure but twrp does not see my storage

i can but after flashing your twrp then flash the old one again and copy the log to the sdcard ? Cause yours says it copies the log but there is no log on the sdcard.

That's odd. I was on Flash's 3.1.0-4 F2FS build and flashed mine right over that build and everything works fine for me (log copying works, settings stick fine, etc..), so maybe try flashing his build, then mine. Without a log, I can't really do much, since I, and nobody else yet has experienced the same issues. I'm going to do some work on it today, and I'll try to get a new build out tonight.
Thanks for your time and help. I downloaded 3.1.0-4 F2FS and 3.1.1-6 F2FS but on both the same. All version dont show anything on the sdcard when i go to advanced/file manager in twrp. So no idea what is causing it but almost sure the problem is on my side.

Perhaps it is just your device. Anyways, I uploaded a new build, maybe try this one out. If it does not, try reflashing stock twrp 3.1.1 and then coming back to an F2FS modified one. Hope the best.

Thing is, by the time I posted, I hadn't realized he updated his. But the things that are different are basically the kernel the recovery image is built with (we use our own kernels), and the support. I will be actively building and supporting while The Flash has pretty much moved on from shamu to angler. Any bugs that arise I will try to fix and I will always be trying to keep everything updated. Over time our builds will start to become more and more different.
Unofficial TWRP for Moto G5S Plus (Sanders)
Additional Features over Official TWRP:
Supports flashing of both 32bit and 64bit ROMs and Kernels.
OREO Images/ROMs support.
Decryption and Encryption support.
No SuperSU by default.
No TWRP app.
No HTC Dumlock cruft.
Updated pigz compressor (slightly faster and more tolerant of corruption).
NTFS support(Both Read and Write).
Covers more partitions for nandroid backup (OEM, FSG and FSC).
Experimental support for SD cards that are partitioned for partial adopted storage and partial removable storage.
Faster I/O performance.
Fixed Gapps/aroma freeze issues.
IMPORTANT!!! : READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING TO FLASHING PROCESS..!!
At first boot twrp will ask for "Swipe to allow modifications for /system" and if you choose to allow it system partition will get modified. So if you choose to reboot back to OS without performing anything in twrp, the OS won't boot (as verity check is enabled in stock OS/kernel) . To avoid this you have to flash either Magisk or flash any of the verity disabler zips available on xda.
Force encryption is enabled by default in stock OS and twrp will successfully decrypt /data at first boot if all goes well
If in case decryption doesn't go fine, twrp will popup a dialog box asking for password and that means decryption went wrong and you would need to wipe data once via twrp wipe options and reboot back to twrp for functioning of /data
Flashing Instructions:
Using Existing TWRP:
Reboot to recovery > Click on Install > Install Image > recovery > select recovery image and flash > reboot to recovery
Other Methods(Fastboot) :
Make sure you have unlocked bootloader
Reboot to bootloader
Enter following command in terminal: fastboot flash recovery twrp-****.img (if you want permanent flash) or fastboot boot twrp-****.img (if you want temporary boot)
Incase your device is encrypted (while coming from stock rom), Follow these steps to decrypt:
Reboot to recovery > cancel the password prompt > mount all partitions > Format Data/Userdata (on f2fs) > Reboot Recovery > Mount all partitions again > Flash Magisk > Reboot
Now you are free to use Stock ROM (Decrypted) or Flash any custom rom you want.

Only one that has actually be working for me ever since I got the phone. Thank you for your efforts.
this seems to suffer from the same thing the stock rom/kernel suffers from, the weird f2fs bug that makes certain mounts fail. geneticengineer has shared a kernel that fixes this in stock rom , maybe you could get in touch with him about how he updated f2fs
Thank you for your work, this seems to work well on my device. If you would like to swap the kernel, I posted a newer firmware NPS26.116-45 here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74325160&postcount=33

Well my guess is that the kernel in the present twrp is from the -26 firmware posted in the other thread. That firmware was US Retail also. The OP in the other thread states in can be used on other models. But I am not going to tell you that because I do not know. I have not found any other firmware for the sanders model.

Afaik it doesnt affect TWRP, you just need to be on a custom kernel if you are running stock rom.
Twrp has nothing to do with it.
If you face any problem flashing anything then post a screenshot or log.

TWRP backup is frozen at 13% completed. The progress bar is still showing its animation.
I unlocked the bootloader, and then rebooted. Android came up with the language selection screen. I powered off, connected the phone to the PC, and booted into TWRP (not flashed yet):
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-sanders-r7.img
I did not let TWRP format /data.
Then I started a backup, selecting all partitions, so that I could always go back after flashing TWRP and Magisk.
Does anyone know why backup is stuck at 13%? Last log line says "Backing up System..."
I tapped "Cancel" after two hours. That stopped the progress bar animation, but not the backup itself.
BTW: I used TWRP from this thread, the one in another thread freezes at the TWRP boot logo.
Edit: after two hours I killed the backup by powering down (the only way it seemed). On retry it froze at 21%.
Edit 2: Retried, this time backing up everything except system. No problem. I then tried to backup system. Frozen at 1%. What is the problem here?
Edit 3: Finally, a complete backup of system! Only one to go: system_image. But unfortunately that froze at 0%. Every subsequent try freezes at 1666MB (40%). The card has over 30GB free. I tried backup to USB-OTG, but that also froze.

BTW: I used TWRP from this thread, the one in another thread freezes at the TWRP boot logo.
Edit: after two hours I killed the backup by powering down (the only way it seemed). On retry it froze at 21%.
Edit 2: Retried, this time backing up everything except system. No problem. I then tried to backup system. Frozen at 1%. What is the problem here?
Edit 3: Finally, a complete backup of system! Only one to go: system_image. But unfortunately that froze at 0%. Every subsequent try freezes at 1666MB (40%). The card has over 30GB free. I tried backup to USB-OTG, but that also froze.

Might be due to data partition being encrypted, you cant write anything in it without decrypting it first.
Format data and reboot recovery, then make the backup. You can flash magisk after taking the backup.
Btw r9 new release on its way with some really important changes

I was not trying to write the backup to the data partition, but to external SD card (tried OTG-USB as well without success).
I have flashed TWRP, formatted the data partition, and flashed Magisk. I have not tried to create a new backup yet. First I want to find out why Magisk does not pass the Safetynet check.
Can't wait to see what r9 brings. Thanks for your efforts. :good:

Magisk won't pass safety net with stock boot.img (kernel). Here is a modified kernel.

After flashing new kernel Magisk passes no problem.

When I flash this my WiFi stops working completely. I'm running aosp extended rom. I'm not sure if I can achieve battery life as good as I can on the stock ROM as I can on this one so im not sure what I should do about that..

Sorry I wasn't aware you weren't still on stock. That kernel will only work on stock. I would verify with the maintainer of AOSP extended ROM that the kernel is patched to work with Magisk.

Hello, I am newbie yet so I am asking if anyone can explain the vendor's use, and what do I get from installing them.
Thank you for your time
Now almost roms here includes custom vendor. So you need firmware only.
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/vendor/beryllium/
And here's custom rom installation process
Flash rom
Flash firmware
Gapps(optional)
Dfe(if you don't want it to be encrypted)
Magisk(optional)
That's it. No need to know more.

Miui decided to use MODIFIED VENDOR IMAGE hence POCO F1 gets a modified vendor image for Android Pie-based Project Treble GSIs
what was the impact?
custom roms couldn't be flashed (booted) if you don't flash the modified vendor image from twrp
even today when most of the roms have their own vendor you still need to flash the vendor+firmware (atleast)
Developer Akhil Narang started collecting all releases at
https://mirror.akhilnarang.me/MIUI/beryllium/
currently I am using 9.6.27-9.0 which is working best for me, 10.3.6 image made my batter drainage high (atleast i noticed)
I am on HAVOC2.8 and this is how i did it
1. flashed TWRP 3.3.1 unofficial (download it from HERE ) ref Reference - as official twrp has TOUCH driver issues. this one worked with me very well
2. I wiped /data, /system then
3. flashed VENDOR.zip from HERE
4. FLASHED CUSTOM ROM (i use HAVOC2.8)
5. FLASHED DFE HERE - REFERENCE
6. FLASHED GOOGLE APPS ( GAPPS.ORG) ( ARM64>9.0MicroPackage)
7. Flash Kernel ( OPTIONAL- havoc uses shadow kernel , i feel optimus drunk kernel is better, battery and 4g connectivity) even Franco Kernel is very good
8. FLASHING MAGISK19.3
9. when i was on havoc2.7, by using MIGRATE, it made flashable zip of my APPS+DATA, stored in internalStorage, and now I will FLASH that file., Mine size goes to 2gb you can get it from HERE
10. WIPE CACHE/DELVIK
11. REBOOT
fire reboot may go in to bootloop and then second reboot may take a while and finally you should see Pixel Setup asking google accounts and info etc
-----------------------
extraa
once after you finish setup! don't RESTORE APPS from PLAYSTORE, (download only license apk, in my case I have purchases many apps from playstore and saperate license info is always appear in intial setup! SELECT THOSE ONLY)
ONCE playstore is DONE downloading all your selected (fewer) apps, and MAGISK ROOT is working...... put device on AIRPLANE MODE
FROM DROP DOWN Notification panel, CLICK MIGRATE, and it will prompt you what do you wana restore from your previouce ROM to newly flashed HAVOC ..APPS+SETTINGS+PERMISSION+DATA etc - migrate restoration may take upto 30 mins,
once done, uninstall from system and reboot device!
REMEMBER I DONOT RECOMEND MIGRATE TRICK FOR WHATSAPP, it doesn't work properly and NOTIFICATION ISSUES with BLANK DP observed by me whenever I forcely re-instated whatsapp by migrate!

I understand but I have installed some custom Roms without finding vendor image and still it works perfect.
And do I need to install this image every time I flash a new ROM?
Thanks

Flashing custom roms will not wipe anything, so the vendor is still there. And firmwares too.
