GUIDE: How to make backups and restore stock. || stock + patched images here

If you are not able to boot a patched boot image or a twrp image on Android 10, here is a workadound.
Machi007 said:
Boot TWRP and images is possible also on Android 10, but it needs some workaround...
1) Turn phone into Download Mode
2) Use command fastboot flash recovery twrp.img where twrp.img is your TWRP image you want to boot up
It shows this error (it is OKAY):
Code:
FAILED (remote: '(recovery_a) No such partition') //This is because an A/B Device does not have a recovery partition. It's located in the boot partition itself.
3) Now you can boot your TWRP recovery image, for example: fastboot boot twrp.img

Hay Guys!
One of the most important things on Android is to make backups. Every time you want to root or flash something, make backups!
I saw many people struggling with OTA because they didn't make backups to restore there images.
=========================================================================
If you DONT have any backup, but you want to restore stock, I'll upload all my stock backups as well as all patched boot images in this mega:
https://mega.nz/#F!52B0HCID!A1k8PiGn9OQbiEa_IJ3_EQ
This is just in case something went wrong with you backup. You should still make your own backups!!!
=========================================================================
In this post I will show you how to create a backup and how to restore it.
There are 2 ways to backup your Phone images.
TWRP:
Reboot ur phone into bootloader
You can do this via adb
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
You can do this by holding volume down + power button while your phone is connected to USB.
Boot into TWRP. you can use the TWRP image from my mega. DO NOT FLASH IT!!!
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Hit the Backup button and backup boot image, system image and vendor image.
If you want to restore this images, you can restore them with TWRP. Just hit the restore button.
This may not work for all Devices. But you can flash the images via fastboot too.
The fastboot files looks like boot.emmc.win. Dont worry, this is img file. So you can rename it to boot.img or something.
ADB:
1Reboot ur phone into bootloader
You can do this via adb
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
You can do this by holding volume down + power button while your phone is connected to USB.
Find out your current slot
Code:
fastboot getvar current-slot
Boot into a patched boot image.
Code:
fastboot boot patched.img
Your phone shoud boot up. If it does,
then open ADB.
In ADB type there commands to dump the images.
Get root access by typing the "su"
Dump your boot, system and vendor from your current slot you found out on step 2
(The commands for dumping an image are below)
If you want to restore this images, you can restore them via fastboot.
Code:
fastboot flash [boot_{current-slot}/system_{current-slot}/vendor_{current-slot}] <image file>
Replace the {current-slot} with your current slot.
Example:
Current slot is a and you want to restore the boot image.
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a boot_a.img
If you still have Questions or need help, feel free to pm me.
Also you can leave a comment under this post.
Commands for dumping images:
#Backup A boot:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p52 of=/sdcard/boot_a.img
#Backup B boot:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p53 of=/sdcard/boot_b.img
#Backup A vendor:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p83 of=/sdcard/vendor_a.img
#Backup B vendor:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p84 of=/sdcard/vendor_b.img
#Backup A system:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p81 of=/sdcard/system_a.img
#Backup B system:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p82 of=/sdcard/system_b.img

Great tutorial and much appreciated. On the first sentence... There is a typo on the word "thinks".. it should be "things".

Thanks. fixed it :good:

Hail brother! Tnx!

might have shot the capability of OTA on experimenting with TWRP and it's possibilites of taking backups.
thought, I was careful, but wasn't enough.
so THANKS a lot for providing all the information and (of course) : the sp1 images.

January stock and patched images is now uploaded.

Hi! I have a Problem with the wifi not working after flashing back stock boot.img on slot a & b....if anyone could help I'll be grateful.

Did you flash your own backups?
Do you have global 6.1?
Also, why did you flash A AND B?

No i don't think so. I never tested it.
Anyway.. You are locked, so you need to downgrade to unlock bootloader. You can use NTool or visit this

I heard in nokia 6.1 u don't need to downgrade to unlock bootloader (just change slot a to b).
Anyways, if I have already unlocked my bootloader can i downgrade to oreo without ntool? Thanks

Nokia changed the Bootloader unlock algorithm with the August patch. So you need to be pre August patch.
A B slots work work like this:
Start: A(June)B(June) Currentslot A -> OTA UPDATE -> A(June)B(July) Currentslot B -> OTA -> A(August)B(July) current slot A and so forth.
So. If you are on Slot A and you have Januar installed, you B slot is on December. This means, switching the Slot does not help you with the bootloader unlock.
You have to downgrade.

Yes you can use OST LA for downgrade if you are unlocked. Make sure you are critical unlocked too.

Thanks for clarifying. I unfortunately updated to January patch.

March update just released (V3.51F) with 530 MegaByte...
This is not just a security update but a complete software update.
Waiting for your files @MEGA.
Do we have to flash more than boot, system and vendor?
Last time (with pie october patch) radio and some other files were updated!

Updated to march security patch.

Why do you want to flash more?`If you are rooted, flash stock boot image. If ur modified ur system, flash stock system.
If you are complete stock, install OTA
Btw. Stock images for march are online

Are your images from Global version ? I had issues updating to March OTA (said that some partitions were modified) so I flashed your boot.img and system.img, but I still cannot update.

Help with root access for Nokia 3 running Android Pie

Could anyone please help with a guide for rooting Nokia 3 and flashing TWRP that works for Android 9.0?
Thanks.

It's very easy if you have the bootloader already unlocked.
1.- Download magisk apk from github
2.- Install and download the zip
3.- Move the zip to a sd card
4.- Flash twrp using Sp Flash Tools
5.- Boot into recovery and flash magisk zip
That's all
I tried yesterday

What if you don't have your bootloader unlocked ? Do you just need to check the "Unlock Bootloader" switch in the developers options ? Thank you

Hey. How to downgrade nokia 3 from pie to nogaut ? I want to root my device

before you do this just remember this wipes your phone
you can unlock your nokia 3 on 9.0 just make sure bootloader is unlocked in dev settings and boot into fastboot.
then run the following commands
fastboot -i 0x2e04 oem key [MD5-key]
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
fastboot flash boot [path to whatever you're flashing e.g. magisk]
then run
fastboot reboot
and your phone will be rooted and the bootloader unlocked

How can I remove the orange state?
I mean, currently, if I lock the bootloader again, I get a red state.
and I can only skip it, if I connect it to the usb.
and start normally, without any status warning, if it is connected to the usb

Don't do it !!! After rooting TA-1032 Pie 9, camera does not work !!!
Hier is what I did:
$ adb devices
$ adb reboot bootloader
$ fastboot devices
$ echo -n "NE1GXXXXXXXXXXXX" | md5sum | tr a-z A-Z | awk '{print $1}'
$ fastboot oem key YOUR-KEY
# the first time did not accepted
$ fastboot -i 0x2e04 oem key YOUR-KEY
$ fastboot oem key YOUR-KEY
$ fastboot flashing unlock
$ fastboot reboot
# Installed magisk v23.apk
$ fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23000_7R099.img
$ fastboot reboot
I can confirm that this works on Nokia3 TA-1032, but the problem is the camera.
All you get is green background, if anyone knows hot to fix the green
background, please let me/us know.
Thank you,

Road to the unlock Verizon device.

General [TWRP] Xiaomi 12

This TWRP works with Xiaomi 12
📌 [Shared] TWRP by skkk
⚡⚡A12/A13⚡⚡ ----------------------- BOOT VERSION Installation: Phone in fastboot mode Cmd: fastboot boot twrp.img or Power shell ./fastboot boot twrp.img then in Twrp go to Advanced -> flash current TWRP...
forum.xda-developers.com
Command to install:
1. boot your device in Fastboot mode
2. fastboot boot recovery_finename.img
This will temporary boot your device to TWRP
3. From TWRP go to Advanced and choose "Flash curent TWRP" - this will permanently install TWRP but will overwrite magisk scripts, so root will be lost.
4. Flash magisk from TWRP - this will fix root.

Thanks bro.
will this lost data or need to clear any caches after done installation TWRP?

you loose nothing and no caches to clear

What does "boot" or "REC" mean? I always thought twrp is just a one file?

REC it's for direct flash the recovery with "fastboot flash recovery.img" (doesn't work for me)
BOOT it's for boot to the recovery "fastboot boot recovery.img" to flash permently go to advanced and "flash current twrp" (work great)

Hello. I have the latest TWRP installed on my Xiaomi 12. A friend of mine installed it. I would like to learn it, but the command "fasboot boot twrp.img" doesn't work for me. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but the phone still won't boot into TWRP. I'm using ADB minimal and I renamed the downloaded file to twrp.img and put it in ADB minimal, then I used the command mentioned above, but still nothing happens, the phone won't enter TWRP. Once it enters TWRP, I use the command: "flash current twrp", I already know the next procedure. I welcome help. Thanks

" I would like to learn it, but the command "fasboot boot twrp.img" doesn't work for me"
Check with"fastboot devices"CMD or "./fastboot devices"Powershell before
the phone must be in fastboot mode.
CMD=fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
Powershell=./fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
Then use the twrp
go to Advanced > Flash Current TWRP
The Twrp .img must be in the same folder as the command.
Possibly post the screenshot of the result of the command

Already said in the post above.
1/You wrote "fasboot" instead of fastboot.
2/Download SDK platform-tool extract the folder and put the twrp in it.
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
3/ use the command from the folder where the twrp is.

Hello, I already know it was successful. Thank you for your help. Best regards, Josef

fastboot flash recovery xxx.img is not correct.
the command is: fastboot flash recovery_ab xxx.img
A question: why the twrp version jumped from from 3.x directly to 5.x?

Question I do everything correctly to root but it keep booting in to the bootloader

My steps
1. oem unlock and unlock bootloader with the command
2. get the files from lmsa
3. Patch boot.img using magisk
4. Flash boot.img and vbmeta.img
5. Reboot using fastboot reboot
It should boot me normaly but it boots in to the boot loader

who told you to flash vbmeta.img?
You should flash patched_boot.img in fastbootd

You need to edit out vbmeta.img / vbmeta_system.img to actually disable verification. Change the byte at offset 123 from 0x00 to 0x03.
Another way is to use the following command when flashing vbmeta. You may need to use a relatively newer version of fastboot binary to get it work.
Code:
fastboot flash --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta vbmeta.img

Which Magisk version did you use? From what I can tell any official Magisk version should work.
I haven't really tested the recent builds of vvb2060's Alpha or huskydg's Delta... so if you're using these versions I can't really help you much...
Additionally, you need to check which slot you are now, and through fastbootd check which slot actually has system, vendor and such. Normally the super partition only has enough size for one slot. You may have entered a wrong slot that doesn't have usable system.
