A question for Bill Goss.
"Things to be aware of:
EU only: You MUST have Airplane mode turned ON"
OnePlus 8T, OOS 13 F.63 EU. OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V17.img.
The above quotation is from Bill's TWRP instructions of August 2022, and I've assumed that it also applies to OrangeFox. But after several new releases of OF & TWRP since then, does this "airplane on" still apply?
Thanks for your very helpful contributions, Bill.

Firstly, if you want to get someone's attention you need to write @<user name> otherwise they don't get notified.

Now for the long answer to your question.
I no longer turn on airplane mode before taking a backup on KB2003. Unfortunately I can't tell at what point I changed my process. And, to make matters worse, I've used this Orange Fox, @apophis9283's TWRP version, and an unpublished version of TWRP from @Siddhant221 and I can't remember at which point I no longer needed to not turn airplane mode on before taking a backup.

My guess is that it was when I was using @apophis9283's version because he made some great changes and @Siddhant221's version (which is currently my preferred version) is based on his version.

But I've not tested (or more correctly "I've no recollection of testing") this on the latest version of Orange Fox, so the safe option is to turn on airplane mode before taking the backup.

Of course, you could take two backups: one with Airplane mode on, one with it off. Then restore the airplane off backup and if it doesn't work, restore the airplane on backup. And post your results here so that others can benefit from your testing.

Update: I tested if Airplane mode was necessary for restoring a backup using OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V17 on KB2003_11_F.63 and the answer is "You don't need to turn airplane mode on".
And I think that it's F.63 (or possibly F.62) that changed the behaviour rather than the recovery. But I can't be sure because I didn't keep a record of when I noticed the change in behaviour.
Bottom line: on the latest Orange Fox (and TWRP) a backup of F.63 can be restored without enabling airplane mode for the backup.

Thanks, Bill. i deliberately didn't do the @ because I was in no rush and I knew you'd find my question eventually. 🙂
Thanks for your advice. I haven't had to restore on my 8T so far, but it's good to have the possibility. I'll certainly share any info if the occasion arises.

Yeah due to no longer having this device anymore and becoming a moderator I will no longer be working on this. However my tress are there for anyone to use.

See my update to previous post!

@Wishmasterflo: I also updated my post that you link to in the OP to avoid confusion about this.

Tested v18 on OOS 13.
- Digest verification now works on backup restore! Thanks.
- Fastbootd still does not get a PC connection (device not seen in Windows Device Manager).
- Fox settings didn't get remembered. When I looked at this more closely, the .foxs file is also created with the incorrect attributes (see screenshot). Update: but now I see that the .foxs file has been created properly after the the last boot into recovery! So, something weird is going on with .foxs

PS: Personally I don't like the fact that the installer script automatically boots into recovery when not run in recovery.
From my perspective I was simply installing Fox and didn't intended to boot recovery at that point as I also wanted to generate and run the ORS script.

Is there any chance some kind soul here might get this working on the 10 Pro? 😁

(my 8 bit the dust and my OPCare replaced it with the 10)

Cheers!

Hiya,
I'm using a IN2013 with OOS13.1 and can't flash Magisk or decrypt data?
Flashing Magisk gives Error 2 and Decrypt Data doesn't work even with the right password

Yes my Orangefox does not work on 8/8Pro with OOS since that uses an older decryption method on OOS as the 8t/9r. So you need to use FBEv1 recovery for your device.

    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

    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.

    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!

    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

    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.
