Currenty using android 13 aosp base rom, Pixel Experiencie A13.
Usint last twrp 3.7.0_12 on finish backup said error:
create tar fork () process ended with error = 255
In previous versions (A12 Miui) it was solved by erasing /data /extm or deactivating the extended memory, but in the AOSP ROM (Pixel Experiencie A13 version) I did not find a way to deactivate it and that folder does not exist.
Any idea?

Hello, I'm new to android > 11 and Xiaomi phones. Can you tell me the proper way to :

• backup my data (encrypted or not ?)
• restore it later on the same preinstalled ROM

I'm quite used to install ROMs, test them, replace them, and all of that with TWRP, but with Xiaomi phones I seem to have 2 main issues :

• system partition not visible (it seems that the right way to "restore" is to install ROM through zip and then restore data)
• data partition encrypted and restore does not work for me yet (I have also a work profile, perhaps I should remove it before backing it up...?)

Thanks for your advice

i tried the instructions on TWRP website but i'm stucked at "waiting for any device" line on CMD screenshot and the phone is fastbootd mode for more than 20 mins. bootloader is unlocked and didn't applied any ROM updates so it's still with the package OS. I have universal ADB drivers installed.

EDIT: it worked now, all i had to do is update the offical ROM to the latest release.

After flashing TWRP and rebooting to the recovery as stated on their website, the custom recovery is replaced by the stock one. I'm using twrp-3.7.0_12-0-sweet.img

Are you on the stock ROM?

yes, i tried flashing ArrowOS A12 after rebooting recovery and now the phone is without any rom. see my post there.

 

[andynx1]

yes

Ok, so you need to flash twrp, reboot to twrp, then flash a custom ROM. If you reboot into the stock ROM, the custom recovery is overwritten with the stock recovery.

I see you're trying to flash Arrow 12, and failing. Maybe you need to update the firmware before you do anything.

i did rebooot to twrp, after that i flashed the rom following @SaulPanzer steps in ArrowOS thread but getting error. Also before i did all this i updated the offical ROM to the latest release (MIUI13 i think).

Flashing the first ROM on this phone can be tricky. Try flashing Arrow 11 first, then flash Arrow 12 over it. That'd probably work, IMO.

**** lol. i lost TWRP. Im gonna retry, is there a CMD command to reboot to the recovery after "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" ???

My first ROM on this phone was Arrow 11, successfully loading twrp and Arrow using this guide:

Installation of ArrowOS (sweet/sweetin) - included vendor

From now, builds will have included vendor. What does this mean?: You don't need to come from a specific MIUI version anymore, unless specified otherwise. If you flashed a decrypted MIUI vendor, after flashing the builds with included vendor, it will be overwritten, so you must flash DFE after...

I still can't get to install TWRP, right after "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" i rebooted the phone with POWER+VOLUMEUP buttons aand entered TWRP, have all the functions, rebooted the recovery a second time to make sure that ****ing script works. After that when rebooting the system and rebooting back to recovery i found out TWRP is no longer present. this is getting ridiculous, idk what's happening.

As I wrote a couple of messages back:
"If you reboot into the stock ROM, the custom recovery is overwritten with the stock recovery."

Yeah thanks. I managed to get it to work by flashing ArrowOS11 first then ArrowOS12. No idea why ArrowOS12 didnt work in the fisrt place, i'll report to them.

What options to select when doing full backup ? i need to update the rom

 

[Bbrigader]

I have no problem flashing A12 rom (with data decrypted) and backing up "data" using TWRP-3.6.2-sweet-20-06-22.img but restoring the "data" always end up in bootloop. Any one has success restoring data with this twrp?

Same problem bootlooping after restoring data with twrp 3.7.0_12-sweet. So for me Nandroid restore is unusable for the moment with twrp

Backup and restore in Twrp-3.7.0_12-0 works for Android 13. I tried it on riceDroid-13.0 and it works.

Have you removed all the pin or pattern before restoring the backup? Might be better to remove them also before taking backup.
