Can confirm that files are now created with correct attributes (thank you!) and that fastbootd still doesn't work (no PC connection).
Also digest verification on restore is still broken.
Yeah that digest verification fail I think has nothing to do with Orangefox itself. I guess it is something with the OOS13 device tree, since I guess that "issue" started from OOS13 F13 (still worked on OOS13 F10 beta I guess).

I've been testing installing OOS OTAs in recovery.
On OF v17 a full OTA gets installed without any errors (I installed F.62 over F.62).
But installing the F.63 incremental update failed.
Logs attached.

Yes that is how it is. Afaik you can not install incremental updates via custom recovery. Only the full OTA files can be flashed.

Changelog
R12.1 V17 01-Apr-2023
- OOS13 Based (should work with both ext4 and EROFS ROMs)
- Changed Fastboot v1.0 to v1.1
- Fixed permission issues when creating files in Orangefox

I tried to fix Fastbootd in OOS13 based Orangefox as well but it seems that it is still not working. At least for me not.
Data decryption not working on PixelExperience Plus Edition.

Attached recovery log maybe can help.
Hmm strange. Yeah it can not decrypt data by some reason.
Seems that something regarding encryprion is different in that ROM.

EDIT: OK could be that I found the reason. Have to check on that further the next days but I assume that it will break decryption in other ROMs then. Lets see.

OK I build a new beta Version now. Can you test if it works? But I assume there are more things needed to get that working.
Also when you try to decrypt now with my V17 Version do you get the prompt to enter the PIN/password in Orangefox?

Not worked with pattern or pin code.
Ah ok so you get the prompt to decrypt but it does not decrypt.
Guess there are more things needed but I dont think that i will try more to fix that now as it will break encryption for all other ROMs then.
Hmmm. Dont really get why just that ROM uses another encryption method as all others.

Do you have a link to the device tree of the ROM you are using?

Seems that this ROM does not use Hardware based encryption and therfor my Orangefox can not decrypt data.

    Updated Orangefox Version V22 Uploaded :)

    Changelog
    R12.1 V22 09-Sep-2023
    - Updated with latest Orangefox source changes

    P.S. This Version works only for OOS13/OOS13.1 custom ROMs. For Stock OOS13/OOS13.1 use Orangefox V20
    2
    Updated OOS11 based Orangefox for Oneplus 8t/9r with latest fox_11 changes and adjustments

    R11.1 V15 25-Aug-2023
    - Synced with latest fox_11.0 changes
    - Adjusted some device settings
    - Updated build vars to latest
    - Added better device detection script
    2
    FYI

    I will drop Stock OOS13.x support in my Orangefox Versions now.
    So decryption on Stock OOS13/13.1 will work on Orangefox V20 but not anymore on V21and onwards.
    I did tried out a lot of things but that was all not working. Also when I tried with an updated OOS13.1 Kernel Orangefox would not boot at all.
    But for custom ROMs everything seems fine and will be updated soon.

    So for Stock OOS13/13.1 use Orangefox V20

    May I suggest you add this important piece of information (and a link to V20) to the OP? Because there's nothing in the OP that indicates that the latest build doesn't decrypt on stock OOS 13.

    Hello @Wishmasterflo

    I'm using the latest version of OF (R11.1 V15 25-Aug-2023) in OP 9R with A11.
    It is taking between 45 and 50 seconds for the recovery to start.
    Can anything be done?
    Yes I know. No that is nothing which can be fixed easily now.

    Boot it with: fastboot boot OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V23.img
    or flash it with: fastboot flash recovery OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V23.img
    The OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V23.zip can be flashed or sideloaded in recovery to install the Fox addons like Magisk etc.


    If the touchscreen is not working for you after booting/flashing Orangefox please make sure that the booted Orangefox is on the same OOS base as your phone is on!

    For Stock OOS13.x please use Orangefox V20 from here

    Note: fastbootd is not working on the OOS13 based Orangefox!!

    Take a look at
    this Post from TWRP in regards of Backup and Restore or
    here from the Orangefox wiki.


    Keep in mind! Never flash a recovery file if you are not on the same OOS Firmware as the recovery is for, otherwise you will end up in Qualcomm Crashdump mode or just a black screen.
    Always just do a fastboot boot recovery.img until you are on the same OOS Firmware on your phone as the recovery is for, only then you can flash it with fastboot flash recovery as well!

    Firmware Flasher Download

    ROM Flashing instructions:
    (take a look at the Spoiler above if you need to switch OOS Firmware Base for your ROM)
    From OOS to custom ROM

    - Boot to Orangefox
    - Format data
    - Switch slot
    - Reboot to recovery
    - sideload/flash ROM
    - sideload/flash Orangefox.zip
    - reboot to recovery
    - Flash Magisk (Magisk can be installed through Fox addons - Install Magisk as well)
    - Reboot to system

    From custom to custom ROM

    - Boot to Orangefox
    - Format Data
    - sideload/flash ROM
    - sideload/flash Orangefox.zip
    - Reboot to recovery
    - Flash Magisk (Magisk can be installed through Fox addons - Install Magisk as well)
    - Reboot to system

    For Updating a custom ROM

    - Boot to Orangefox
    - sideload/flash ROM
    - sideload/flash Orangefox.zip
    - Reboot to recovery
    - Flash Magisk (Magisk can be installed through Fox addons - Install Magisk as well)
    - Reboot to system

    The Messages failed to mount system, vendor after flashing a ROM can be ignored.
    That is due to mounting those for both ext4 and EROFS and of course you can have only one of them.
    If you get a Bootloop after flashing a ROM and having done a Format Data do the below:

    Boot to bootloader and:
    - fastboot devices
    - fastboot -w
    - fastboot reboot

    Hi!

    I uploaded a new Version with the latest OrangeFox R11.1 changes

    R11.1 V9 01-June-2022
    - Synced with latest OrangeFox R11.1 changes

    FYI

    I see that the Orangefox Team is still working on the new Version R12.1 which will support Android 12 but that Version is not ready to build it yet as it still seems to have many bugs and issues.
    As soon they fully release it I will build it for our Oneplus 8t.

    Stay tuned!

    Good news. 😊

    Orangefox R12.1 got released now.
    During the next week I can try to build it for the Oneplus 8t.

    Hi all!

    I have updated the OP now with a Spoiler and flashing Instructions when switching from OOS11 Base Firmware to OOS12 Base Firmware or from OOS12 Base Firmware to OOS11 Base Firmware and download links for both Oneplus 8t and Oneplus 9r :)

    Keep in mind! Never flash a recovery file if you are not on the same OOS Firmware as the recovery is for, otherwise you will end up in Qualcomm Crashdump mode or just a black screen.
    Always just do a fastboot boot recovery.img until you are on the same OOS Firmware on your phone as the recovery is for, only then you can flash it with fastboot flash recovery as well!

    EDIT: It seems that the Firmware downgrade from OOS12 to OOS11 is not working on phones with DDR5 RAM, so please dont use the downgrade from OOS12 to OOS11 when you have DDR5 RAM !!!!!

    From OOS11 Firmware to OOS12 Firmware ROM
    --------------------------------------------------------
    Check DDR RAM type (from Windows cmd)
    adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    or from Terminal on your phone
    getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    When you are on OOS12 use this from the Orangefox Terminal:
    cat /proc/devinfo/ddr_type
    Download latest Orangefox 12.1 img file from here
    Download OOS12 flashable Firmware for your phone from here or, Oneplus 8t, Oneplus 9r
    adb reboot bootloader
    fastboot boot OrangeFox_R12.1-xx.img
    adb sideload fw_Oneplus8T_EU_cXX_DDR0.zip
    adb rebooot bootloader
    fastboot flash recovery OrangeFox_R12.1-xx.img
    fastboot reboot recovery
    Apply Update - apply via ADB
    adb sideload ROM_OOS12_Based.zip
    Factory reset/Format Data
    Reboot System


    From OOS12 Firmware to OOS11 Firmware ROM
    --------------------------------------------------------
    Please only use this right now when you have DDR4 RAM in your phone!
    (seems that phones with DDR5 RAM get issues after flashing the OOS11 Firmware)

    Check DDR RAM type (from Windows cmd)
    adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    or from Terminal on your phone
    getprop ro.boot.ddr_type
    0 - represents your device is LPDDR4X (use DDR0 Firmware file)
    1 - represents your device is LPDDR5 (use DDR1 Firmware file)
    When you are on OOS12 use this from the Orangefox Terminal:
    cat /proc/devinfo/ddr_type
    Download latest Orangefox 12.1 img file from here
    Download OOS11 flashable Firmware for your phone from here or, Oneplus 8t, Oneplus 9r
    Download Recovery_OOS11_FW_Android12_decryption.img from here
    adb reboot bootloader
    fastboot boot Orangefox R12.1 recovery
    flash OOS11.0.13.13 Firmware
    flash ROM_OOS11_Based.zip
    reboot to bootloader
    fastboot boot Recovery_OOS11_FW_Android12_decryption.img
    Factory reset/Format Data
    Reboot System

    Hey, at least its one step closer to finally switching to the new firmware. :)
    Yes I am a step closer now, I have updated it now with OOS12 files but still no luck in getting the decryption of data working.
    Guess I have to add/update some more things to get that working.
    Seems to me now that it is not even trying to decrypt now since something is missing or not yet updated.
    Have to dive deeper into this to understand what more needs to be fixed /updated now.
