Maintained by Dees_Troy, This build of TWRP will (probably) only work with devices using Full Disk Encryption (FDE) and may not work with devices that have been converted to File Based Encryption (FBE). FBE support may be added at a later date.

Yes it's working fine
Only issue is the random freeze that lasts 15-20s every time I boot in recovery
Tried it. No SD card support... :/

Does that mean we don't need to format data? Getting a Poco soon and all rooting guides say you need to format data.

Yes, works very well, no need to format, and has sd support too.
Anyway, if it's a new phone, like mine, format as many times as you want lol. Which I did while trying out other TWRPs, and I still get them asking me for a password that was non-existent. My first time after so many phones where a TWRP was asking me for a password (which caught me offguard), and all Poco F1 TWRPs except this official one.
I have settled with this TWRP first, lost some time with the rest, my main goal was to root anyway, TWRP upgrade can come later. I do hope nandroid backup and restore is good as I have not tried it yet (just backup which went fine). Will try restore soon. I have Titanium and Migrate working anyway, and Nandroid Manager too.

I don't know how I missed this, this one is also good. I just flashed it just to see and it's ok too.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-3-decryption-t3853004
Ok, I tried to restore the Nandroid backup from official TWRP, and this is exactly what happened to me :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/help/nandroid-backup-fail-t3887678
Restore gets completed, I reboot to system, it goes into fastboot mode. Tried again, same.
So I reinstalled latest MIUI ROM Global beta, which I prefer, and run Magisk again, and restored only Data partition. This worked and it rebooted into system, without me losing my data. I also didn't bother to remove my pin while taking the backup a suggested in another thread, and it's ok, no problem.
So still ok to backup, but can only restore data. Always have a copy of the ROM too in your SD Card or even internal storage to flash when needed, as well as Magisk if you use it.
As for the unofficial TWRP in my link above, restore was worse. It ended up in "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255".

Yes, I just tried 2WildFirE's solution, and it works perfectly. And from this article, system image and vendor image are apparently even better than normal system/vendor.
https://twrp.me/faq/whattobackup.html
So, no more problem with Nandroid and I can use this official TWRP or the other one. I won't use a custom ROM for my Pocophone as I like MIUI, so it's just fine for me.
As for the wrong date of Nandroid, it's ok, I enter my own file name backup anyway.

it's a pretty long story but currently my system partition is wiped after it soft bricked, i also couldn't reflash stock roms with twrp so i tried to extract the recovery.img from the stock rom and flashing it over twrp to get the original recovery mode back to flash the update but for some reason it didn't work.
so now i can only boot into EMUI which keeps telling 'getting package info failed' meaning i can't update through it. i'm also able to reach the 'fastboot&rescue mode' screen but i know nothing about adb and even tho i watched 2-3 tutorial videos i couldn't really get it to work. all videos wanted me to boot up the phone and enable usb debugging which i can't. my phone was rooted before and i'm positive i've enabled it in the past but i'm not sure if it's still enabled or not, either way i'm not able to get it working.
is this salvageable?
i'd really appreciate some help if possible, thnx
nope. but even when i had twrp it wouldnt let me flash update.zip's
i still have fastboot screen so my guess is that i have to run it through adb, which i don't know how to do

i CAN boot to 'fastboot&recovery mode'
i CAN boot to EMUI (but EMUI keeps telling me 'Getting package info failed', it tries to connect and download but from what i can tell on the screen the download never starts)
Ok. Ive tried running 'adb devices' but i cant see my device, if i type 'fastboot devices' i find one device.
Dont know if im missing something or if this even matters.
But i'll try flashing twrp with fastboot

TWRP is back!!
but how do i flash marshmallow with twrp? and what marshmallow file are you talking about, the one i mentioned above?
because i tried flashing these update.zip's with twrp before but it wouldn't let me.
i'm currently packaging the update.app files into a zip and moving it to the sdcard, that's the only way i can think of to flash these update files with twrp.
since it didn't work last time, i have my doubts but i'll give it a try
Rommco05 said:
Ok, just for clarification, your model is frd-l09c432, right?

yes. can't remember how to double check but way back when i downloaded these update files i was extremely careful to download the correct files.
and they worked and been working since they were the newest version, so i guess that has to be my model.
EDIT: and it's twrp-3.1.1-0
yea now it told me corrupt zip, last time i tried i got some other error, think it was some error about writing to system partition.
U can also flash this https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwXB-CJiljwpS1o4UXo5b1JlRjQ/view and after

Ok download this firmware B120 and flash via twrp https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=129477 after this go to reboot and tap reboot recovery.

i'm trying to backup everything i need before doing a factory reset and i have a problem.
first time booting up i get the contact names on call logs for a few seconds and then they disappear because the contacts are gone. if i restore my data partition in twrp and boot up the system again i get the exact same thing. i'm guessing the contacts are saved at least temporarily somewhere on the data partition, is it possible to extract them somehow? i don't care if i have to write them down one by one from a .log, i got some important numbers that are worth the hassle for me

If you synced the contacts already then you can from google contacts.
I know this is completely backwards, but i found a twrp backup i did on my broken systems partition before i tried anything else. Maybe if i can undo what soft-bricked my phone i can get them back.
I installed/flashed a magisk module for xposed and after that i wasnt able to boot the system any longer. Is it possible to somehow uninstall this module and get the phone to boot again? Or is the only solution to flash a new stock rom?
Edit: havent synced with google in a while

the backup of the boot partition made no difference. even after flashing the new rom and the boot after nothing changed.
but i just solved it, i found a magisk uninstaller and after flashing that the phone booted up with all contacts, photos, apps+data intact.
when i first posted here i had wiped the systems partition and didn't know i still had a backup hidden away in a folder, so i'm extremely grateful for all your help and patience.
i still think i'm gonna update to nougat and i'm using hisuite that came with the phone, do you recommend any other backup application? do you know if app backups work if i update to nougat from marshmallow?

For apps backup just download from playstore , because some apps are compitable with mm and some are nougat .so better to download again from playstore after updating to nougat.

Im not sure at all what happened here?
I got in a boot loop after trying to run fornight (replaced build prop then restarted)
No problems ive got a back up, so i choose my fresh back up of 5.1.9, it restores and then goes to reboot another bootloop, so i head back into TWRP, check file manager, its deleted ALL my data and i dont have a backup to restore at all!
Any ideas how to proceed, i only have the version of TWRP (3.2.2.0) that doesnt let me ADB sideload and i dont have magisk on the SD or absolutely anything!

Yes ofc coz it already gone... but for the next restore, just backup the data portion and restore the data (this is what im doing nowadays.)
For the restore, for me personally, i'm using the mega unbrick https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3796051 then proceed to update to 5.1.9 using OTA. Then after that you can unlock and do your stuff again.
For the bat, you probably good with running the flash-all-partitions-fastboot.bat. See the instruction in the thread though.

Yep.. PITA for this devices because of this A/B Partition. Anyway, for creating the backup for me the steps are:
- Remove Security Lock (In case you forgot this you need to delete some files for restore later)
- Backup in TWRP (Tick Data Only)
Restoring just flash new OOS then after you got in (setting up the devices), then go restore your backup (Data).
For these A/B partition things you better read this thread

After i wanted to install Android P, i got a bootloop. so i wanted to go to twrp but now my files are encrypted and twrp is not asking for a pin or pattern so i can't decrypt my internal storage files.
Now the biggest problem is that i just came back from a family weekend and i made a lot of pictures, witch i can't acces now, and i really want them back.
Now i can't install a new os or anything ...
Can someone please help me! i'm really despirate
(sorry for my bad english)
Try downgrading twrp , night get it to ask for pin
downgrading is never the answer. In fact, that will cause this problem to happen. Now i must ask, are you temp booting twrp or is twrp installed to phone.
I got this when I temp booted the mtp enabled twrp the other day, although it still asked for my passcode and said description was successful. When I rebooted the installed (official) twrp it all came back....

Bringing this back up... Did booting from temp twrp work? Ran into the same issue.
Temp boot and use the usb c to pull ur data from the device to a computer. After that you can wipe and start over. Unbricking guide available in the help section
Having the same issue. If I boot using fastboot TWRP I'm able to decrypt data. I did that and flashed stock OOS and the same TWRP version (BluSpark) that was used in the fastboot. But the folders are still encrypted. It's weird how a fastboot can decrypt it but a regular recovery boot can't. Is there any alternatives available?
I'm in the process of backing up my data before I officially bite the bullet.

So I wanted to try out LOS 16. I made a full TB backup and a Nandroid backup on TWRP. I flashed Open Beta 2 for the firmware and booted. Everything was fine, but OB 2 is not my thing so I went like planned and booted into TWRP to wipe and flash LOS. This was when it went downhill: TWRP no longer prompts me for a password and all my files are encrypted.
Even so I flashed LOS and it boot just fine but all my files are no longer there.
I will try to avoid a full wipe down. It's painful af, and since i got the 6 it's the second or third time that I'm at this point. I don't get it.
At this point all i want is to decrypt my data and restore my nandroid. Does anyone know how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance

if all you did was temp boot twrp on pie, temp boot twrp can not decrypt data. You have to flash twrp to phone then reboot to twrp. Second, twrp can not restore backups of stock roms. Third, to go back to any oreo rom will require a format data to fix.

I'm pretty sure temp TWRP can decrypt data. I do it all the time. Regarding the restore, I wouldn't know, haven't tried yet but I think it would work, had I been able to decrypt it. Whatever. Full wipe it is.

I can get TWRP backups to work just fine on stock OOS, but I follow a weird process.
1. Store backup on something other than the phone (I got a USB OTG SD card reader/writer - I use a 128GB SD card to hold my stuff)
2. Use a fastboot rom to flash the same rom as the backup was made on. They are in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665
3. After flashing the fastboot rom start up the phone and go through the whole setup process (I don't know why but it doesn't work when I don't do this)
4. Install TWRP. Instructions can be found in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/guide-how-to-install-official-twrp-t3801558 don't just boot TWRP, actually install TWRP (it might work if you just boot TWRP, I never tried it so I can't make any claims that it works)
5. Move your backup back to the phone and restore it in TWRP.
I have done this probably 100 times by now and it ALWAYS works. It is just how funky the encryption is on the OP6 that makes us go through hell to do something this simple. Try this.
So I don't want to screw something up. I have decrypted my device to be able to more easily test other ROMs
Using an OTG and USB stick to make things easier ,, how do I flash Stock OOS back to a decrypted system and leave it decrypted ??
Thanks for the spoon feeding!

Flash stock like you did your ROMs. flash that DM varity at the end. Don't restore a stock backup if you didn't make it decrypted. Once you backup stock decrypted you can restore it anytime you want.
I've always started out on stock decrypted and then back that up. Then fish my ROMs you May have to reformat again so you can do it. I'm not to sure. If it's a different security patch you May have problems

Yes full zip. I would try it without a reformat first, just a factory reset in TWRP, and if it doesn't boot, then you know you will need to do the full format in TWRP. But I don't think you will. I hope not.

Man what a pain in the butt ... I tried over and over again and found no way to maintain decryption when going back to stock. ..... my device wouldn’t boot . I formatted data several times and that didn’t help ... still wouldn’t boot.
I may give up since I was able to flash encrypted
But if you have suggestions and the exact steps you take I might try again
Thanks

All I did was boot TWRP go to wipe, then format data
Then flash full os ZIP ,TWRP,DM varity all at same time
Then reboot recovery flash DM varity , magisk
Reboot to system. Then I backup this one decrypted, keep a copy on a flash drive
I haven't Flashed the new 9.5.11 yet. Maybe They changed something now that we can't run decrypted I'll let you know when I update.

Ok I just dirty flashed 9.5.11 and kept decryption. I didn't have to reformat because I was already unencrypted, but I followed the same way I shared with u.

Sorry for the slight OT
Can you run an androbench and post the results please, curious to see if decrypting affects write read performance
Can someone link DM verity please ?
