I am using orangefox recovery, make backup with miui 11 stock rom.
While play around with custom rom, and wanna restore backup to get few apps item, it's error in wiping vendor
My error message while restoring vendor
"e2fsdroid -e -S /file_contexts -a /vendor /dev/block/mmcblk0p62 process ended with error : 1"
"Unable to wipe vendor"
I tried to restore all items, and restore vendor last. It worked fine in restoring, but my phone can't boot. It show fastboot mode.

Any ideas what happen ? :eek:
Read around on internet, some said u need to disable lock screen before backup ?

If you'll get ever some weird error in OrangeFox Recovery just simple reboot it to recovery again. In menu you have that option. Than try again...
Some super tip: DONT EVER TRY TO FLASH MIUI ROM/FIRMWARE UNDER RECOVERY!!!! Use MI FLASH TOOL!!! You can brick device like you two did :p . Dowload fastboot MIUI ROM and flash it.
Dont restore apps from backup lool. Use app like Titanium backup to backup/restore your apps+data.
Good luck
