is there any way to gain access to the internal storage through a pc so i can back up the files? adb pull wont work

i installed the ota on my p6pro and cant boot unless the data gets wiped, any suggestions welcome
I tried quite a few ways to pull files off but nothing worked. Had to wipe phone in the end. Last backup was just over a month ago as well 😭😭

Things I tried after OTA install resulted in bootloop on Raven. Just for info if people in same position. All of this was trying to get phone up and running without wiping

Installing stock Feb image to other slot - failed
Installing last Evo version on top of stock Feb - failed
Installing stock March - failed

Anyone try to update via ota and get "

Your device is corrupt. It can’t be trusted and may not work properly" ?(4/5/2023 ver)​

Dude! Literally all of those who tried are getting this, just read some posts before asking!

This build has been pulled off by the dev like several hours ago & we are left in a limbo with our corrupt devices!

Just curious if anyone is actually testing these updates or if we are the testers? I almost updated yesterday but wanted to wait until I got home from work strictly because of this reason. Appreciate all the work from the developer, but just would like to minimize my risk when updating. For those that are without your phone sorry I feel for you and I have been there before. Good luck.

They get tested internally, yes. Most of the time when this happens it's usual when a build was tested with source changes only differing between 1-2 hours of the actual releases. Things happen, and by using custom software on your device you accept the risks.

Anyways, the issues were narrowed down and resolved. Builds are starting to roll out now with OTA on hold for a few hours. Users can manually sideload in the meantime.

    Someone help
    I keep getting:
    FAILED (remote: partition (boot) not found)
    Use platform-tools r33.0.3, open a command prompt in the Platform-tools folder.
    Note: The files you are fast booting or side loading also have to be in the Platform-tools folder where the files adb.exe and fastboot.exe are located.

    Unlimited Google photos not working.... I have personally using this rom for unlimited Google photos and now it is not working... I hope it is just a bud with the latest build.. nothing else..
    That feature will be removed entirely going forward.

    FYI, The above was posted a few weeks ago by the OP.

    Commonly asked questions & answers:

    Q: Why am I getting "error cannot read" while attempting to sideload the ROM
    Well, you should be using the latest platform-tools and have it added to PATH. A lot of unofficial drivers floating around on the internet install outdated adb/fastboot along with the drivers. Please refrain from installing these as well as minimal adb & fastboot; Use the official google driver and official platform-tools instead.

    Alternatively you can prefix each adb/fastboot cmd with ./ while in the platform-tools folder via powershell or bash, etc.

    For example:
    ./adb sideload ./rom.zip

    This basically tells the shell "Hey, I want to execute this local binary rather than the one in PATH".

    Q: I'm a windows user and my device is not being listed when I run adb/fastboot devices. I'm using the latest platform-tools, what could be the reason for this?


    Q: I'm a linux user and my device is not being listed when I run adb/fastboot devices. I'm using the latest platform-tools, what could be the reason for this?

    Q: Will you release builds in the update.zip format?
    No, we will not be releasing builds in that format due to a handful of reasons; The main reason being that it is not able to be installed via OTA and is incompatible with our official devices infrastructure.

    Q: Why is MTP and/or Android Auto not working?
    Set the default USB configuration in Settings > The Evolver > Miscellaneous > USB Configuration

    Don't see your question? Well, feel free to post a comment in this thread, we will reply as soon as we can. We'd appreciate if users used XDA FIRST and the telegram group as a LAST RESORT.

    To be continued (I'm sure).

    Custom Kernels:

    Custom kernels may be flashed at YOUR OWN RISK. However, we will not provide extended support regarding such and it is up to YOU, the end user to make your reports in the appropriate thread for X kernel, not in this thread.

    Obtaining root:
    Let it be known that we will not assist anyone with bug reports until they have disabled all modules and restored to the default, unpatched kernel that is shipped with the ROM!

    Root can be obtained by either one of the following methods.

    1. Download the Magisk.apk on your pc (you can change the file extension to .zip if you wish, though it is not required.
    2. Reboot to recovery
    3. Navigate to Apply update -> Apply from ADB
    4. adb sideload magisk.apk (replace "magisk" with actual filename)
    1. Download the full rom.zip from post #2 of this thread
    2. Download payload-dumper-go that corresponds to the architecture of your pc
    3. Run payload-dumper-go against the rom.zip
    4. Grab boot.img from the extracted folder and transfer it to your device
    5. Patch the boot.img with the magisk application and transfer the patched image to your pc
    6. Reboot to bootloader
    7. fastboot flash boot boot.img (replace "boot" with actual filename)

    When an OTA update is available, let it download and install. Before rebooting simply open Magisk Manager and click on the first "install" button and select "install to inactive slot". Once it's done, reboot and enjoy.

    Reporting bugs and submitting logs:

    In most cases logs should be provided when reporting bugs. This can be done by enabling USB debugging in developer options of the device, connecting it to your PC and running one of the following cmds depending on the type of bug/issue while reproducing it:

    General system log
    adb logcat > logcat.txt

    Kernel log
    adb shell su -c dmesg > dmesg.log

    Please provide a detailed description of the bug/issue as well as link/upload the log you had taken.
    There are exceptions to this as some issues are unable to be caught in logs. In this case, it is expected that users provide clear and accurate steps to reproduce the issue.

    Getting involved in the development:

    We've set everything up in such a way where all you need to do is install AOSP build dependencies, initialize a repo client, init the tiramisu-pixel branch of our manifest, sync the code and lunch your device (e.g lunch evolution_cheetah-userdebug); Roomservice will automatically sync all device specific dependencies for you to compile without error. There is no need to manually clone anything due to this and applies to Pixel 6, 6 Pro, 6a, 7 & 7 Pro (oriole, raven, bluejay, panther & cheetah).

    Device and ROM source changes can be submitted on github to the appropriate repositories by making pull requests via comparing forks. Please follow the google patch format for commits and triple check your changes by compile testing and verifying they're correct. Please retain proper authorship if you are not the author!

    WOW, I just read through this entire forum thread, every page, word for word (to get up to speed with my PX6Pro) before I flashed it. I did this so I don't have to come here and re-ask the same damn question (a 100th time), instead I RESEARCH it prior!

    I have to say, I am always amazed to see how many greedy, selfish, and unthankful people there are in this world. Us DEVS do this on our OWN time, yet some of you think we OWE it to you. We waste our time to deliver custom ROMs, apps, scripts, ETC., to users with asking for ANYTHING in return. This time could be better spent with our families, or work, or having fun, so NO, we don't owe you a damn thing! This post isn't pointed to any one person, so no one take offense per se, BUT COME, show a little gratitude, or thanks, instead of all the pointless BS! WE need to be kissing the devs butts, to have them continue to bake the ROMs for us. I won't do it anymore, I gave up years ago, after baking ROMs since ICS, but I could NOT HANDLE the attitudes of the users. The demands, demands, demands, with little to no thanks, and getting back NOTHING but grief, so please be careful. If we lose this dev, we won't have this ROM anymore. I am just asking users to wake up and be polite, use a little common courtesy, do some research PRIOR to asking, and do NOT demand, but be thankful!

    THANK YOU AnierinB, I APPRECIATE your time!!! This ROM is amazing!!!
