Some one in other thread said that it may brick the us version if you flash the Chinese twrp and install ROM using it. Can the OP confirm it us universal before we have several bricked phones?

I have a few questions re TWRP:
1.
Are there different versions available for the X720? If yes, which ones (including download link)?
I believe that I have installed this one ( https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862668751 ) which seems to differ from this one: http://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-leeco-le-pro-3/
2.
How are the partitions organized on the Le Pro 3? See also http://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/development/ref-lex720-64gb-partition-infos-t3493528
What is the difference between system and systemimage (as shown in TWRP)?
3.
Does the Le Pro 3 TWRP port still have any bugs?
For instance, it says that system is not mounted and, therefore, I cannot easily restore system partition. I tried to mount it but thereafter the phone did not boot.
Is it normal that system apps get restored if I only restore the data partion?
Thanks.

Sometimes I have the same problem, /system couldn't be mounted.
I solved it like this:
In TWRP go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> Check System Partition -> Repair or Change File System -> Change File System -> EXT4.
Has anyone installed this successfully on 727 US version?

On my x720 I use another one, the latest V4 from chinese sites :
https://mega.nz/#!EVcUCY4J!nN9r170x1eL9uvZg2p4h-q_M9T3I3HxcdSRigl2DNj4
I have now installed TWRP v4 but still have problems to restore a backup.
First, I backed up everything. I tried to restore boot, system, systemimage and data. I did not restore efs, recovery and firmware. Do I have to restore firmware? What is that? What is the difference between system and system image? In any case, I got a lot of errors and the phone is very slow after I restored boot, system, systemimage and data.
Thanks!
The TWRP versions I tried (including v4) have problems and do not reliably mount my encrypted data partition. (I had a similar problem with the initial TWRP ports for the Elephone P8000. The problems were fixed and subsequent ports worked without problems.)
Moreover, if I boot into TWRP recovery the screen is flickering from time to time (probably just a cosmetic issue).
Is there an updated TWRP version 5 or something? Could you please link to the Chinese website where the TWRP port for the LePro3 is made available? Thanks!
I am trying to unlock the bootloader right now using the fastboot oem unlock-go command and it is not working on the US variety. I have also enabled the oem unlocking in dev options, as well as, debugging. Has the US variant changed things to prevent the bootloader from being unlocked?

I can't install TWRP, it says it is finished but when entering recovery, still standard EUI recovery is there.
Tried the V4, but can't read what to do. Please help.
Running 18S original.
Edit: Finally worked! Press TWRP.bat from homescreen, enter a few times and all clear!
DisclaimerThis software comes wth no warranty,XDA staff ,myself or TeamWin stuff can't be hold responsible for any damage it may cause to your device.
Note: Currently Oreo 8.1 custom roms are supported only on BKL-L04 with EMUI 8.1
Download and Installation
* Download twrp recovery
* Start your device in fastboot mode
* Install the recovery using the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk [name of the file].img --> ex: fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp_blanc_0.1.img
* Restart with this command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
* As soon as you execute the restart command,remove the USB cable and keep pressing Volume UP,so the device will boot to TWRP.This is to avoid that the device boot to OS,overwritting TWRP recovery.

Hey mate nice to see you here
Nice job with the recovery! I've been handed out an US View 10 a couple weeks ago (with Android 8.1 pre-release stuff), I'll test it out for you.
twrp-3.2.1-0-berkeley.img didn't boot on BKL-L04 (dark screen and reboot), but Ethan made some changes and twrp-3.2.1-1-berkeley.img does work fine.
I've been told that some selinux changes were needed to boot 8.1 stuff, some critical service that fails to run because it can't find the right policy, something related to recovery_vendor partition that runs it.
It will work in 8.0 setups also just fine.
I'll let you know how it goes :fingers-crossed:
Hope we get 8.1 kernel sources soon so I blu_spark this blue beauty

Hi! My favourite kernel developer is here, nice!
I have a guess on what may be wrong, but i'm not sure. Let me know if you figure out! [emoji6]
My phone just got the android 9 update, I already had installed root with twrp on my device with android 8.0
So when I tried to re-root my phone I needed to reinstall the TWRP but it couldn't decrypt the data
I tried all of the posible solutions to this but nothing
I think that is the TWRP version that can't decrypt data in android 9.0
But in the web isn't any version that support the Mi 8 LIte with Android 9.0
Do I need to wait until someone update the TWRP version or what can I do?
Thanks in advance

You are upgrading now; for this you need to decrypt it for first time and probably every time that you switch from a miui to an AOSP rom. Be sure that your data partition is mounted and I guess you can´t see the files under TWRP. Try first with this zip https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389
Stock Miui re-encrypt data on first boot after factory reset, so you need to flash Universal DM-Verity
I also need TWRP for pie.

Would you happen to know if opengapps aroma works with this recovery. I have tried 3 or 4 other revoveries and once options are selected and install starts recovery reboots. After that I have to hold power to force reboot because no matter what reboot option I choose it just goes back to recovery.

Unfortunately I can't tell you for sure cause left 3 days to unlock my bootloader but I used this recovery in two Xiaomi devices (R5Plus and Mi Max) and was the best I ever tried, never had issue flashing Aroma zips.
Be sure that once finished the installation Reboot box in Aroma be unticked

Never had an issue with redmi note 4x and aroma either. The reboot box does not make a difference because the install never happens. I will download and try.

If you are using the wzsx150 3.2.3 twrp found under the ROM/recovery section, versions 0121 and 0212 are both supposed to be for Android 9. I haven't tried myself though, as I am still on 8.
I can confirm version 0212 does indeed decrypt data partition, making it mountable it inside TWRP. Of course phone's now running on official Android 9 MIUI 10, updated on Wednesday.
So heads up for anyone trying to use open gapps aroma installer. No recovery will install it. Tried batik, orange fox, perp, and wzsx150 twrp and all do the same. After all the selections when the actual installation starts the device reboots (installs nothing but does save setting options) back to recovery. All reboot options (system, fastboot, etc) all reboot back to recovery only holding power button will allow device to boot into system.

Any idea why is 0212 half the size of 0121, and the others for that matter (28MB vs 60MB).
I believe it's somehow compressed. If you open these files with something like 7zip you'll see the size is very close between the two.

Here you go. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78876979&postcount=46
Another member replied to your other thread as well.
My Mi 8 Lite had stock, rooted (Magisk) MIUI Oreo and I dirty flashed MIUI Pie with TWRP 3.2.3. It booted up again with no problems and everything works but when I boot into recovery it now asks for a password to decrypt the data partition. Needless to say, the PIN for unlocking the screen is not accepted by TWRP. I'm hoping I won't need to wipe the data partition to fix this. Any ideas?
Thanks
<bump> anyone?

If you are using the wzsx150 TWRP, notice that versions 1003/1203 are for Oreo only. You need to upgrade to versions 0121, 0212 or 0330 for Pie.

Thanks a million, that fixed the problem. This information should be made available on the existing TWRP posts. I had a job finding the updated recoveries to download but came across a Google Drive folder that someone had posted https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1780TJvn-ZHPBtgDdNjrN8i9YRlqPy38v - I went with the 0330 version which seems to be working fine.

This device has 3 different touchscreen panels (that I know of) and one of them is not fully supported. Which seems to be the one you have. To fix the problem the recovery needs some additions on source and then compiled. I suggest connecting to a pc and copying what you need off the internal storage and then use a recovery that your touchscreen works with and format the data partition using the option that asks you to type yes. This will remove encryption and allow you to access data no matter what recovery you use.

What is vbmeta?
I want to install Elixir Project. Is it necessary to do something from the vbmeta? Or just flashing the rom is enough?

Flash vbmeta is necessary to boot a new system but it's easy to flash too.

I understand that the vbmeta is pulled from original samsung firmware, lz4 format stripped and flashed by AP. Then we implement the command by TWRP and the desired rom is installed.
Is that so?
Does the vbmeta step have to be done every time I put a new rom or only once?
Sorry for my english

I only did once and I didn't use the stock vbmeta I just searched "vbmeta disabled Samsung" it should show up with vbmeta disabled android 11 but works the same on 13 and I didn't use TWRP only fastboot so i don't know how to flash it there.
Btw your English is good don't worry.
After installing TWRP I can't install the fbe. TWRP doesn't recognize my device's internal memory either.

Because you need to flash the fbe_disabler using some usb otg, external sd card or by pushin the zip to /tmp, flash it and then format /data.

My device is a T220.
The touch does not work in TWRP and I use a mouse. I use Micro SD to install the FBE. But when trying to install it gives me an error in the data folder. Although apparently it seems to be installed.
I format data as you indicate and restart in fastboot in TWRP to put the vbmeta by ADB and install a GSI. But it generates bootloop.
I don't know if I'm missing some step.

If you really want to flash a gsi and can't get it to work use a fastboot enabled recovery that's what I did

Disable vbmeta, it's the only thing I can see you missed.
