Hello, i was using miui.eu 12.5.4 until yesterday. coz of lagging & hanging i thought to try a new custom rom. So, i did backup my "data & boot" partition in latest Ofox recovery before flash another rom.
Now, today i want to again go back to miui.eu rom. So, i flashed,
✓miui.eu 12.5.4
✓Then, Ofox zip (coz flashing miui.eu forced u to install twrp)
Then, reboot to Ofox,
✓Then flash magisk 23
✓Then, restore my previously backedup data
Then restart my phone.
But, it stuck with miui logo. Can anybody tell me, did i do anything wrong?
I did try same steps with back & forth. But, no luck..
update: it's the ofox recovery which have problems. i restored the same data with twrp & boila, its worked & my phone booted with my backed up data...

Thanks for telling us. That is good to know.
But with which ofox did you try (beta or stable)?
And more important with which TWRP did you succeed?
Both were latest version..

So my problem began when i flashed eu rom latest version my setup was:
TWRP offcial 3.1.0-0
/data and /cache F2FS
previously running android 7.1.2 (Nitrogen OS)
And Franco Kernel and even before that i used MIUI 8.2.20 with ZCX and ext4 patrtions
Flashing EU rom i got a weird intro screen username and password asking to validate the phone (NOT MI ACCOUNT IT WAS AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE BOOT)
so i gave my mi account credentials and then nothing so after i that i put my phone away for 15 days.
So yesterday after 15 days my exams ended i edl flashed my phone and then i install miui 8.1.6.0 and then updated to 8.2.3.0 and then i was good and running the s8 theme but within that span i started missing NOS so flashed ZCX Backed UP MIUI 8.2.3.0 and then i flashed Offcial TWRP no probs flashed absolutely fine and then i restored my backup of my rom before i went EU $#!T and i restored upon booting it asked for password i then remebered that miui encrypts the /data patition so i formatted /data and then i thought of restoring the /data partition and then it would stop at copying a certain partition and i would wait for a long time and then i ejected the phone from the computer but still i was not able to delete or do anything in the /data partition as if it is read only partition UPON DELETING ANYTHING I GET "RM -RF ERROR" I AM FLASHING ROMS SINCE 2010 WITH GALAXY S AND I NEVER FACED A ISSUE LIKE THIS !!! i completely freaked out i thought of doing something so i formatted /data and it would get stuck there forever!! because of this i had to flash miui through edl 4 times until i gave up and installed miui and then just installed NOS and Gapps then nos unroot,magisk and at last franco r5 as i didn't had the r6 version then after booting up i restored all my apps from titanium backup and i good to go..........
UNTIL THEN FK Manager Auto flashed r6 version of franco and then AS I REBOOTED I FOUND WIFI NOT WORKING SO I CHECKED MAC ADDRESS IT WAS 00:00:02...... I WAS COMPLETELY SHOCKED I THEN CHECKED BASEBAND IT WAS 'UNKNOWN' I WAS LIKE i was trying to restore modem i got "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255 " then now i am flashing miui thorugh EDL i will update u all soon...
BUT WHY IS THIS HAPPENING WHY I AM NOT ABLE TO TO NOS WITHOUT DOING ANY $#!T I LOVE NOS AND I WANT TO INSTALL IT AND ALSO CONVERT TO F2FS AND OFFICIAL TWRP PLEASE HELP IN DOING SO!!!!
Wipe everything first of all.
Flash nos
Flash gapps
Install apps from play store.
Forget about the backup. It may not be compatible with latest builds. Too many code mashups. Starting fresh is always considered best option
Flash latest firmware.
Done. Enjoy.

I started having issues flashing ROMs and restoring backups after updating to the official TWRP 3.1.0.0 and 3.1.1.0
It sounds stupid and paradoxical but the previous 3.0.2.0 (or something) I used (not even sure if it was the official one) was faster and trouble-free in my experience. Don't know why nobody mentions this in the TWRP thread.

Yeah u all are correct something wrong with latest versions of twrp. Anyways i am up and running my rn3 again thanks for all ur help..!! Good night
HI
after some wrong uninstalling service from my clean miui 9.6.25 global
i tried to restore rom by usual way from twrp.
but when done the pocophono never run to boot only logo screen(waiting atleast 15min which ofcourse is not normal).
has anyone faced that?
do i need to flash ENCRYPT disabler again after restore?:silly:
Come on......!!! cant be only me???!!!heheheh
TWRP is for lifesaver not to trouble as all know
I've found this too.
Encryption shouldn't matter.
Try restoring only one partition at a time to see which is causing the error. I think it's Userdata in my case, but Userdata Image may work.
I've not bothered to investigate why this happens yet.
ok
i will try mate.
thank u!
i will come backup for update
My phone had latest Miui9, then I installed Twrp and backup the Miui9 rom by Twrp.
then I flashed Miui 10, back up it with TWRP.
Then try to restore my Miui 9 Twrp backup, after done the phone boot to Fast boot mode only.
Even tried restore Miui10 still it would boot to fastboot mode only. Flash new rom and reboot it will ask for encryption password.
The fix is need to format data (Wipe > Format data > type yes, after flashed the rom), and reboot it should work.
Yeah, restoring MIUI backups is a real pain... Because of that, I always flash the ROM zip file first, then restore the data only, reboot and it works.

so steps:
1st flashing miui rom.zip
2nd restore files with twrp backup file?
and all works perfect????
data? system? image system? which please
first time i hear this method...hehehe
pin\password asking after?
miui account find device e.t.c?
I switch ROMs pretty often and MIUI never booted after restoring.
There's a simple workaround: just reflash MIUI whenever you restored.

Install MIUI zip (with the same system you backed up), then go to restore and just restore data and nothing else. If you used Magisk before, flash it too after restoring. Then reboot. I don't know about Global ROMs as I always use Xiaomi.eu but I think it should work the same way. Oh, and never backup data with a password/pin/fingerprint set because it will not recognise it after reboot and you will have to use TWRP to delete locksettings from /data/system which adds unnecessary steps to this tedious procedure. Good luck.
thank u bro!

Hi, I'm having the same issue.
I get a PIN code. How can I bypass it?
How can I avoid it in the future?
Thanks!
if password promt during boot u have no option other than format data
only lockscreen can be deleted via twrp
I had the same problem in my pocophone and solved it like this:
1. Advanced wipe all data except Internal storage (so you do not lose your data)
1.1 Flash or boot twrp again
2. Install the official rom using the way you know
3. Starts android the first time but without doing the initial configuration of android (I'm not sure if this is necessary but it costs nothing to do it)
4. Through twrp, restores the data but only the options Boot and Data, dont select System
And that's it. I hope it works for you.
I was trying different combinations and I realized that it is the system folder that has a problem when you make the restoring, don't know why.
I was using pocophone with MIUI 10.2.2

When I was using stock RealmeUI (android 10) just looking some ROMs for RMX1851. And I've see Corvus ROM, just wanted to install my phone. I enter the TWRP and took a nandroid backup except data section and just deleted cache, internal storage, dalvik cache, cache and... vendor. Then I swipe to install and boom! ERROR 7. And I just wanted to back to stock ROM via TWRP nandroid backup. What happened? of course it didn't work. Nothing see wrong while restoring backup but the device doesn't boot up. I can still enter TWRP and flash somethings. And last thing is the build.prop file is not in their place.(/system/build.prop) Please help me.
Can someone take and share realmeUI nandroid backup please? This method might work.
Just flash realme ui ota file
Don't you think I didn't try that? It doesn't work.
Hej everyone,
I flashed a custom rom from mi-globe a few months. It was working great. Then I had the not so incredible idea of updating with latest miui eu 12, because the weekly update from the update menu was not working. It kinda worked, but it got too buggy. So I wanted to come back to a xiaomiEU Stable Rom.
It is now that problems begin. When I flashed miui eu 12, I got recovery loop. Lost all my data trying to fix, but I was able to flash the stock rom via the amazing XiaomiADBFastbootTools in my GNU/Linux distro. It worked! But the main issue is can not flash the custom rom again. I download the custom rom in the internal storage, flash the twrp via fastboot, enter recovery, create full backup, wipe to factory reset and flash the custom rom. Everything seems successful, but then I get a recovery loop again and when I try to restore the backup, the data folder is filled with folders and files with random chars in the names. Apparently the data folder becomes read-only for some reason as well. Then I have to flash the stock rom and tried everything again. I have done it at least 5 times now. I have searched a lot for some solution and nothing works
I have tried the OrangeFox recovery and the mi-globe rom, same issue. I really want a custom rom :fingers-crossed:, but I have no idea what to do anymore. If I could at least restore my backed up stock rom, it would help a lot.
Please help me out and sorry I posted in the wrong section.
Hello, I now have 8 days note 10 lite today I unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP via adb after that I installed lineage os and wiping data etc. After that I faced a bootloop and lineageos bootscreen doesnt go away after 15 minutes.
So I tried to reflash the rom again, but twrp isnt able to reinstall the rom. I then used miflash to get original rom again.
Started all over installed twrp, flashed lineage os after this install after reboot I get everytime back into TWRP and looked on my pc and all files suddenly are encrypted on my phone and cant get lineage os rom again on my phone..
So I used miflash again and decided to ask here first. Does anybody know if I maybe use a wrong TWRP or missed a step?
I really dont understand it, I tried it for a 3th time. Here is exactly what I did.
- installed TWRP through ADB (TWRP-3.4.0-0_Android11_Roms_AndroidHQ254)
- In TWRP put rom on my internal storage
- Wipe Dalvik, data and cache
- Install rom (TWRP-3.4.0-0_Android11_Roms_AndroidHQ254)
- data wipe (where I had to type yes to confirm)
- Reboot to system and then it doesnt do anything and goes back into TWRP where I cant do anything, and I have to flash original rom back through MiFlash.
I run now MIUI 12.0.2
Android 10
Try using orangefox recovery. And i think you have to wipe data before installing rom, not after it.
