hi, i have a xiaomi mi mix 2s that was running los18. one morning i woke up before my alarm, checked my phone and went back to sleep. when i woke up again, i found the phone was on the splash screen and then started bootlooping. going into orangefox recovery, i was greeted with numerous /data mount errors, namely:
from what i can tell, the only way to get the device working again is to format the /data partition, which means losing all my data which im trying to avoid. i did manage to obtain a dd dump of /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata through usb otg, though ive been unable to read the img file, either through windows or ubuntu. is there any way to mount it and retrieve the data? i did specifically flash dfe from the start, so it should be unencrypted. the file system is ext4.
would also greatly appreciate other suggestions on how to recover the data.
Code:
Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer.
Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)
Unable to recreate /data/media folder.
Unable to mount storage
would also greatly appreciate other suggestions on how to recover the data.
