TWRP 3.2.3-1 for Pixel 2 XL

[clever_man]

Yesterday I flashed latest Android 10 (clean install). After that I booted into twrp 3.3.0 (latest for that moment) and tried backup my firmware but get error

Failed to mount '/system'

Is any solution for making backup Android 10?

That's been normal since the first beta. Don't think there have been any solutions announced. Everything still works despite the error.

Edit: don't think backups work though. Everything but in my experience.

Your likely going to have to wait for the TWRP team to update it to be fully compatible with A10. I too have TWRP 3.3.0-0 installed, and while it throws errors with flashing zips, it still works :good:

I was able to backup boot, system image, vendor image, data and efs but haven't tried restoring.

I did a clean load of 10 and can't flash with TWRP. I can side load TWRP and when I go to flash (anything) I get the following errors: "Failed to mount '/system' (invalid argument) and "Failed to mount '/vendor' (invalid argument)" I've searched and can't find the answer so any/all help is greatly appreciated! I was running standard G-9 with Sultan/TWRP/Magisk/Gravity Box.... I am running on 10 without any mods for about 12 hours now and all is well, but...

Odd, but like others I get errors but get root as well so I guess I'm good.

Yep...your good. Until twrp and magisk are updated, the error messages will continue. But hey, at least it works :good:

On Android 10, TWRP 3.3.0-0 installed. Having a couple of issues (besides the /system mounting one described above, which I also experienced). First issue is that I can't decrypt my partition if I have a pattern set. Second issue is the screen sometimes becomes unresponsive while in TWRP, and I have to hold down the power button to reboot. Keeping my fingers crossed that these can be solved with a TWRP update.

Android 10 is not the issue.

I have not had any issues with 10.0.0 yet. flash-all with data wipe. 10 runs great on my 2 xl. no app issues.
TWRP 3.3.0-0
magisk canary beta/app beta also.

Disable all screen lock and fingerprint settings, reboot and you will have no issue to decrypt and flash in TWRP... then just re apply your security settings.

I opted, instead, to cleanly flash the April build of Pie, which TWRP 3.3 *can* decrypt even with PIN / PW / Pattern enabled, then take the Q10 OTA on top of that.

So there are multiple ways to get this worked out.

As for mounting \system rw - better do some reading through the forums.

John,
If you dirty fllash to Android 10.0, as long as you don't wipe or disable your security, you will be able to decrypt in TWRP 3.3.0 and Android 10.

Uh, that 's what I did

But I was also running the entire set of the ßeta builds, and I cleanly installed both ßeta 2 and ßeta 5, hence my need to flash (April) Pie first - the first clean install broke the decryption.

 

[Reechings]

Curious if I can backup data from my current clean install of Q then go back to April to get decryption working then restore data after coming back to Q.

No, because restoring your data will break TWRP decription.

Yeah I figured that would be too easy. I'll just suffer with removing pin until custom roms come out and I'll start fresh again.

Hmm, at the moment mounting /system/ RW is not possible, at least i cannot find the option how doing that...

Wouldn't say it works. Some stuff doesn't. For example, mounting system for those of us who edit build.prop does not. Therefore, on A10, no hotspot for youuu *Seinfeld Soup Guy*.

Actually this works just fine for me https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=75103431&postcount=54

along with going to adb shell then su and typing settings put global tether_dun_required 0 my hotspot works fine on A10

Well, I'll be...good work finding that and thank you for sharing. Can confirm that this works on a dirty upgrade (A9 -> A10 via full image flash without -w) + latest Magisk Canary (19.4somethingsomethingsomething).
