Recover formatted partition with TWRP - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I was converting my data partition to f2fs, but forgot that this will erase my whole internal storage.
Is it possible to recover any data? At least part of the data?
I didn't boot my device yes to not overwrite deleted data.

TWRP autonomously encrypts phone after restoring from backup!

i did a restore last night so did a format /data /cache /system /dalvik /internal memory and did format data type yes command in TWRP. After doing the restore the phone on first boot said it was encrypting the phone!! i hadnt issued any such command so i dont know why it did that on its own. because of this one other nandroid backup on SD card has become corrupted and giving an error 255 when doing a restore. It is using the 'default' TWRP encryption password, whatever that is. I want to recover the corrupted nandroid backup. How can that be done?

Recover private mode content after formatting data partition

I recently formatted the /data partition to be able to use it in twrp. I remember now that there are files that I'd have liked to recover from the private mode. I know the pin I had set.
Is there a way to recover the files now that I've formatted /data?
No, thats not possible..

Xperia XA F3111 and TWRP 3.0.2 by Jemmini doesn't save settings

I don't know why but TWRP can't save settings after I have changed it. Every reboot to TWRP results in language, time, options as it was before. Any help appreciated.
regards,
Because internal storage is encrypted. Sony don't see internal storage and can't save settings (default they located in /storage/TWRP

You have to wipe /data partition with TWRP to remove encryption, make backups before.

So when I wipe data partion and it will become decrypted and visible for system - I will be able to save TWRP settings, then can I restore my data partion from backup so I have my data and apps back ?

Yes you will be able to make nandroid backups and restore and have access to the directories from TWRP, it will save your settings too.

Hi I did nandroid backup from TWRP and saved it. I wiped data partition and restarted the phone.
It looks like factory reset. I went to TWRP to restore data partition but it still boots to fresh system and looks like is not restoring data. It says in TWRP that data partition restored succesfully. So what is going on ?

Does factory reset in twrp delete the backups?

So I'm on twrp recovery (rooted Oneplus 3T) and i do a lot of moding which often results in bootloops, so I resort to my backups made in twrp. I was wondering if I'm doing a clean flash of a new rom and it fails, do i still have the backups?
Factory reset wipes only Data , Cache , and Dalvik.
If you select Advanced Wipe and then wipe the Internal Storage or select the option Format Data from the Wipe menu then you will lose your backups (and all your personal data too ) as they are located in Internal Storage/TWRP/Backups.

What if you selected Factory Reset from Android Settings? Does that delete the TWRP directory (folder) and its contents as well (which contains the Nandroid backups)?

Yes, if your TWRP backups are stored in internal sdcard, factory reset from settings will wipe the internal sdcard and remove your TWRP folder and the backups contained in that folder.
BUT...
If your backups are stored on external sdcard, they will not be wiped by factory reset from settings, they also would not be wiped by factory reset from TWRP.

Yeah... If you don't have SDcard, make sure your NAndroid backups or ROMs are backed up on your PC or external hard drive. Otherwise you cannot install/flash your new ROM which includes the android system.

I know that, you probably meant to quote the person I responded to.

Or, you could just factory reset in TWRP, factory reset from within TWRP does not wipe data/media, otherwise known as user storage partition where the TWRP folder is stored, therefore, any TWRP backups stored in the TWRP folder in your internal sdcard will not be wiped by the factory reset process from within TWRP.
However, factory reset in TWRP does wipe data/data partition, where user settings and user installed apps are stored. If your ROMs are also stored in the data/media(user storage partition), they will not be wiped by the factory reset process from within TWRP either.
