and i try to install a new rom, Rom fell in the middle of installation, and since my phone is not dead (no reception) after I went online I realized that what happened is a folder called EFS was deleted or changed, because it is not working, I did a backup the folder ... What can you do?
Thanks

If your EFS folder is damaged/deleted and you have no backup, you are out of luck. I don't know of any official way to restore it.
Search in the Sense port thread where apparently EFS folders were damage, maybe some hints in there.
I read on Google some ppl got lucky restoring their IMEI etc by deleting every remaining item in the EFS folder and flashing a new ROM using a fake IMEI.
DISCLAIMER: I have absolutely NO experience with it and strongly advise to do research before taking further actions. This is a too serious issue to try&error.
any one can help me? plz..

In case you didn't get what I said, there is NO fix for that. You're phone is basically useless now.
☆Root required☆
☆Supports for all Android devices!☆
It's aimed to support all Android devices running Android 3+.
This is an improved and more generic implementation of EFS Backup.
This application auto detect all your device partitions and let you save a backup of any of them (Boot, EFS, Modems...), to keep them safe from getting corrupted after bad Rom flashing issues.
You can backup any partition to your internal or external SdCard, the backup supports 3 formats:
Raw partition image (Img)
Tar archived image (No compression)
Compressed GZ image (Small size)
This application was made to be a generic solution for all Android devices, it does NOT use any static/hardcoded block numbers.
Notes:
The backups are saved on /Sdcard/PartitionsBackups.
Do NOT leave the EFS/Modems backups on your Sdcard, make sure you keep them on a safe place
It supports stock and custom Roms (CM, Omni...)
Do NOT use the restoration feature for tests purposes, it is recommended to use it for small partitions only (EFS, Boot, Modems...), you can restore other partitions backups with Fastboot, Odin or any other flashing tool depending on which device you are using.
Bugs reports:
Post your Exact device model
PM me your logcat (you can use Syslog App)
Download.
Changelogs:
12.3:
- Various bugs fixes
1.1.0:
- Add restoration feature, the backup file must be a raw partition image (with img extension)
- Minor bugs fixes
1.0.0:
Initial release
Suggestions are welcome, if you like the application please rate it.

Great, thanks for the feedback.
Wow looks great! I've used EFS Backup before and excited to try this. Installing from play right now.
@wanam why is it under a new developer (Halfdroid) and not your existing developer on the Google Play Store?
edit : ... if you don't provide the link, maybe it is because you don't want provide it ^^
NB/ stupid questions : you are recognized contributor, so your name should be in green ? ^^

Hi again Wanam,
Not installed yet but i'm curious about restoring the "big" partitions using odin:
Do you mean i can backup /data with your app and restore it using "pda" in odin without odin touching /system etc?
Feature request
@wanam
Thanks for such awesome tool! Excellent work! :good:
Could you please add a backup PIT as an additional feature to your app?

While trying to backup the modem partition with my Nexus 5 I have the following error: 'backup successfully saved to: null' so I have nothing into sdcard/PartitionsBackup.
Test also done with the recovery partition. Here is attached a log recorded during the backup process.

I think it is a path detection issue of the sdcard, di you get the correct path on the App settings?
This application was tested against N910C (Stock), G900F (CM11) and Nexus 5 CM12.
Hi,
regarding those settings: if i set it to "external sd" backup path shows /storage/sdcard1/partitionsbackups which is correct. if i close and reopen settings "external sdcard" is still selected but patch suddenly shows /storage/emulated/0/partitionsbackups.
I tried to make a backup of /data (i guess this must be userdata) but i got a very small file in size (about 100 bytes) if i remember correctly. i tried a backup of /system which i think succeeded but android itself thinks the app has frozen. Also... it seems that the backup is as big as the partition (1.6Gb) even when there only 500 mb used. sorry, no logcat for now

It seems this one can't be done in a generic way, each device has its own pit start/end.
New update 1.2.3 has been pushed with various bugs fixes related to Android L and some customs Roms.
Well although I planned to unlock bootloader after a few months I decided to grab the opportunity when unlock page started working and with the ultimatum by Huawei about providing unlock codes, but ever since I unlocked and fixed multiple boot loops I noticed few apps and features are now missing such as
HiFi Huawei sounds in Settings is gone
Unable to change or apply themes
smart remote Control is now gone,
Phone no longer stay awake while looking at it
There might be more stuff missing which I haven't noticed
I mean it feels absurd I just unlocked bootloader why are these stuffs missing this makes no sense to me, all I did is installed twrp, installed magisk no modules nothing, in fact, my favorite mods are giving boot loops anyway but that aside I do need the above things back please help out a friend, anyone else faced this ?
I have a theory like Miui had a "region" option and apps changes according to regions set. So does something like this happens in EMUI as well, I don't remember exactly but I believe I set region/language as the UK while completing the setup, if so how can I change it back(PS: I live in India)
or its the side effect of root perhaps?
PHONE: HONOR VIEW 10
Current EMUI ver:8.0

No idea what kind of issues you had, but none of those vanished after unlocking my bootloader.
I've been able to use themes just like before, the display stays on when I look at it and those Huawei sounds in settings are still there as well. No idea about the remote since I never used it anyway.
So idk what went wrong on your phone but it doesn't look like that's anything "normal"
Help please !
Bro, can you please please please extract upload C675 system.img stock so that I can come back on stock?

From LOS to Stock
Thats not a problem bro, have a 50mbps 250gb monthly plan in broadband. Wanted you to know that I am coming from LOS to stock as much as I know it would require only system.img. But if you think anything else would be required, then please upload that too, as I have only the stock recovery and nothing else.
Thanks for your help !

3. Also can you upload ramdisk, kernel, stock recovery also?
4. Is there any way to get FULLOTA-MF for India as provided in other regions?
Thank you.
I flashed it bro but no network.
I think I need radio/modem files.

Do the same unzip in PC- Copy all these files inside twrp backup folder, go to twrp and use restore option hopefully it will work
this is 140 update backup I haven't received 151 officially due to unknown reasons, but I had made changes to my system partition so it contains almost all new features and fixes of 151 except the 3D creator cam,
3D creator is in my data partition which i did not backup
Hey, Are you sure taking restore of this one alongwith previous one will do the job ? I guess imei resides in efs partition which I cannot see here. Can you confirm this once please ?

Take your own backup first... Try installing only one partition at time... To be honest this EMUI is very new to me... Dont know y they made so many different partitions
Or maybe it's a kirin's thing... I should have just gone with Op5t like rest of the world... Its just chaos and confusion here
Now real dev will re-create this thread.
Edit: legit work by Bogdan, I'd add to the OP some screenshots cause this ROM is truly great. Thanks!!

Wow. That's gotta be some kind of record for Xiaomi
Mine is only 13M though. Must be a tiny update.
Wow! First time ever that this Android One device is actually up to date security wise.
Yes, from July update only 13MB.
Maybe it was there before, but after updating I noticed a native screen recorder icon.
Updated: It is not native. I have a screen recorder app installed.

Does someone know how to install an OTA Update without using the System Update App? It always says Installation Problem. Installation failed.
I'm rooted with magisk, that's the reason i guess.
I found the 13mb Update as a zip file, but it's not flashable via twrp... Any Suggestions?

So you Flash the whole Rom (~1.2gb) and not just the Update?
I would like to find a way to Flash just the Update since your method is taking too long for me...

If you only have Magisk, the standard process should work for you.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-install-magisk-proper-support-ota-t3836952
If it's not working and you have somehow modified some other partition, it will be written to the logcat.
adb logcat | grep update_engine
My Problem is, even with magisk 'uninstalled' the Update App from xiaomi still says 'Installation failed: Installation Problem'
That even happens with totally Stock rom, no root and no twrp.
I dont know why. But is there any other way to Update manually without flashing the whole Big Rom file? Just the Update file...
There must be a reason why there is an update file in zip Format which is 13mb Big.

Alex, You don't have to flash the whole big rom file, but you do have to download it though. You can get it from here: https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/daisy/roms-global-stable/
You then have to extract the files that you need with payload_dumper which you get from here:
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850510260
NB that is the Windows 64bit version so make sure that is the OS your pc is using.
You then have to find which partition it is that is causing the problem for which you have to use a1291762's advice:
Code:
adb logcat | grep update_engine
and read very carefully through the results because the offending entry will be difficult to spot amongst the dozens of others.
You then flash the partition mentioned in the logcat. For example if 'system' is mentioned in the logcat as having an incorrect hash (that is always the reason for the failures) you would have to extract 'system.img' with payload_dumper and run
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Then try the update again. If it works you will also probably have to reinstall Magisk from scratch again as flashing system will probably remove it.
Yes it is complicated - far too complicated, but the simple measure you call for - just flash an update file - has, to the best of my knowledge never been possible, so there must be some reason why that is so, but I don't know what it is.
Incidentally, the reason I am able to respond to this question is that I had a torrid time yesterday trying to update my A2 lite on which I had not one, but 3 errors. aboot hash incorrect, system hash incorrect, and before any of that the normal Magisk uninstall told me it had no images to restore and so had to be uninstalled completely. It took me hours and it wasn't that much fun.

The update is only 13M because it contains only changes. But for that to work, your partitions must be unmodified.
The larger update zip has complete partitions so it can work even if you have changes. You may be able to do the recovery update method with that file...
The even larger fastboot image has every partition.
thanks everyone for the help!
I did it as you said viking777 and it worked.
It's sad, that for an 13mb update this procedure is necessary, but thats how it is..
So thanks again everyone for the help

sure, even more quick if u dont need twrp
flash last rom with xiaomi flash (save user data selected)
then boot patched.img and install magisk, less than 10 mins and no need to worries about uninstall magisk or any mod before
