I'm having an issue seeing the phone when booted in TWRP through the fastboot command. I want to be able to copy the magisk zip on to the storage. Anny help would be appreciated!
You are using a twrp version which also decrypts /data?
If not then you don't indeed see internal storage :good:
I changed my security from a pin to a password, entered the password when prompted in TWRP and I got everything to work!

"CM Lockscreen has stopped" turns OPO into bootloop, how to backup /sdcard to pc?
I got the "CM lockscreen has stopped" message, and now my phone keeps rebooting. I can put the phone into stock recovery mode and maybe fastboot mode(yet to try). All i wanted now is to backup all my files in internal storage before "sideload" the older firmeware(33R) to fix the phone.
I just learned how to use adb and fastboot.
in stock recovery mode------> apply update-----> adb, only "adb sideload mode" is allowed, i can't use adb pull command in here.
Question is: How to backup all the files in internal storage(/sdcard) to my pc.
should i just sideload the older firmware and fix the rebooting issue first?
but i am worrying this method won't works or the internal storage will get formatted.
Thank you
Just flash a custom ROM using TWRP. Your files won't be erased from internal sd card.
No need to use fastboot. Don't forget to wipe in twrp.

But i didn't install TWRP on my phone. To install TWRP now, i think i have to unlock the bootloader first, but this will wipe all the data(including internal sd scard). Am i right?
My OPO is running on TWRP v2.8.4.1 recovery.
I formatted my entire phone by wiping the internal storage, system, and cache partition. I want to now transfer the ROM files and gapp files to the phone so I can reinstall.
I am booted into the TWRP recovery and connected my OPO to my PC using USB. However, I am unable to transfer files of folder to the internal storage.
How do I do this?
Go into the Mount menu from the TWRP main menu and enable MTP.

I did that but it wasn't working. The device would show up on my PC but wouldn't let me create files on the internal storage.
I fixed the issue. It seems I had to reboot the phone after wiping out everything.
Thanks

You can use adb sideload or adb push command to send files via terminal.
You need twrp recovery as usual.
Hi guys,
I am in confusion.
Ultimate questions is: why can't my proper TWRP decrypt data? Being under LOS16. Asking me for password I can't provide. I updated Magisk and Viper and got bootloop.
Entering recovery mode, no internal storage, followed the repair file system method with changing file structure to ext2 than to ext4, still no internal storage.
All I want is to recover media files before reflashing LOS.
1. How to decrypt data?
2. Why by default TWRP doesn't do it.
Thanks
Here's what I have done so far:
1. Set up MIUI with a pattern lock. Haven't done anything explicitly that will encrypt internal storage.
2. Applied for bootloader unlock.
3. Unlocked bootloader.
4. Flashed TWRP to recovery from Fastboot, then booted into TWRP
5. Formatted /data from TWRP
6. Rebooted to TWRP
7. Wiped /data, /internal, /dalvik, /cache
8. Flashed crDroid (A10).
Here is where the problem begins. I set up crDroid without any passcode or screen lock. But the internal storage is still encrypted. Now when I boot into TWRP, the internal storage is not accessible. Same with PBRP. Trying to wipe Internal Storage from PBRP makes it reboot. The log from PBRP is attached here.
How do I decrypt the internal memory so that I can access it via TWRP/PBRP? Formatting /data doesn't seem to solve anything at all.
The reason I want to decrypt internal memory is because I want an absolutely clean crDroid install with no prior data hanging around anywhere in the system.
Today I unlocked my bootloader and installed orange fox recovery, I tried to install TWRP but it wasn't being permanent, it was just disappearing after once I boot the device to system. Whatever, after I installed Orange Fox, it was permanent but I faced another problem, I couldn't mount my data, my internal storage couldn't be selected so I wasn't able to flash anything, usb otg option was also showing nothing but the device was connected to a PC and my data was encrypted which requires a password or pin to decrypt. Though I didn't have any screen lock, but I tried out many pins and passwords to decrypt, but it all went in vein. I tried formatting data and enabling a screen lock and tried that screen lock too but it didn't work out.
Now what can I do to Decrypt and mount my data so that my internal storage shows up with the data I have?
NB: My battery backup also dropped hugely for some unknown reasons, how do I fix that too?

Custom recoveries like TWRP and OrangeFox cannot decrypt Android 12 ROMs, which means if you are on MIUI 13 you have Android 12, you cannot decrypt internal storage yet.
USB OTG means to connect to an external hard drive or flash drive, not connect to PC.
2 ways to deal with: 1) put ROM in microSD card and put the microSD card into the phone, TWRP and OrangeFox should be able to read microSD cards. 2) use ADB sideload in TWRP/OrangeFox to flash ROMs/Zips files. You need PC to do this. Look up on Google how to flash with ADB sideload.
Hi Guys! I Found a new Method how to Decrypt the Storage.
1. Go to Wipe and wipe the Internal Storage (First make a Backup to Your PC)
2. Go to Backup and Backup Something, like Cache
3. Go to Menu>Mount, uncheck the Data and Check it.
4. Format the Data with Typing yes and Reboot
4. You're done and Enjoy!
TRWP beta can decrypt internal storage of A12.1, I am using it and it works fine.
OrangeFox beta builds are able to decrypt a12 data no probs. Even unoffical twrp beta can.
