What are the steps required to be able to restore a TWRP backup? Also, which partitions are required?
I've tried backing up Boot, Data and System and restoring them when I have no lock configured (Just swipe to unlock) before and after the backup and restore. This always sends me to a bootloop into recovery. To fix the bootloop, I have to reflash the ROM and then do a factory restore from the new Recovery that is flashed by the ROM. Wiping from TWRP before flashing the ROM still causes a bootloop.
If I create a PIN lock and then do a backup and restore from TWRP I no longer get a bootloop, but instead get stuck at a "Android is starting" screen. Is this normal? I've tried waiting at least 15-20 minutes, but it never gets past it. Or is this the correct way and I just need to wait even longer?
