BootLoop after TWRP restore - Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra Questions & Answers

Hello,
On Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra with TWRP 3.4.2b-0623 wzsx150, i did a full backup (all partitions) then after some moding and all on phone. decided to restore the full backup trought TWRP
the phone goes on bootloop and didnt want to start.
i already fixed the phone by flashing rom again, but i'm wondering why a TWRP full restore give a bootloop ? any help to understand to avoid this next time
thanks a lot

This is late but this happened to me before aswell. You have to flash the rom which you've done the backup on and then just restore the data partition.

Does your device keep in a frozen black screen?

If you are restoring to the same device of the backup, just restore it and then wipe data.
Reboot and it will work perfectly.

[Q] Stuck on Samsung logo

I have a friend who has the Skyrocket.
He is rooted and has TWRP installed, but he is still running the stock rom and kernel.
Today his phone randomly rebooted and now it is stuck on the samsung logo. We have been able to take out the battery and boot into TWRP no problem.
We do have a backup from a while back and he is also considering trying a new rom at this point, but we'd like to be able to get this to boot.
Anyone have any ideas on how to get this thing to boot? What could have caused this?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

We do have a twrp backup and can restore it, but we're hoping to find something that will fix the boot issue.
Do you think it could possible fix the problem if we flashed a new kernel and then tried to boot? Can't hurt, right?

You could try the kernel our you could also try wiping just cache and dalvik. I assume you're trying to save the data.

We aren't trying to save the data. We already have a backup. We're trying to get this thing to boot without flashing a new rom or reverting to a backup.

Backed up the ROM and installed with clearing everything. Tried to restore the data but it's hanging up again. So,thought to forgot abt the apps data.

no no..dont restore the data in recovery
use titanium backup to extract the wanted APKs and data from the backup after installing a clean ROM
May I suggest restoring your broken backup (even if it fails) and reinstall SVHD over it without wiping anything except Dalvik, cache and battery stats. If everything else fails checkout one of the newer kitkat roms and manually restore your data partition or anything else needed. You can manually backup data or any other partition through AROMA file manager through recovery hope I help you out bro. Have a nice day.

Can I know how to achieve this. Usually I restore a backup that's created from titanium backup. But as I don't have TB files, how to restore the data from system backup from Titanium Backup?

Hello,
My DHD hung up with Cyanogenmod, one week after intallation. the same problem with SVHD.
several roms were tested, some with bugs and others without bugs but slow in using or other reboots when the camera is used.
Finally, I installed a rooted stock rom, (Android 2.3.5), every thing works correctly.
Best regards

If you're downgrading or upgrading your firmware then you might not be able to use your backup. but 99 percent that you're good to go!
I still don't get it. If I make a full wipe will I be able to restore the backup.

Depends on what you consider a full wipe.
If you wipe (delete) the backup, then no.
If the backup is on your sd card and you do NOT wipe the sdcard you will be able to restore.
If you delete everything on your phone EXCPET /recovery partiton and your backup you will be able to restore.
Also I don't recommend wiping the /boot partiton because A) It is required to boot the phone B) Some phones have the recovery on the /boot partition and wiping /boot would leave you without the recovery.
So basicly in 90% of time you will be able to restore (unless you really screw up)
Thanks a lot mate. You really helped me!

Reverting back to stock recovery

Hi,
I flashed Twrp but I can't backup, because it can't mount data.
I thought, I'd try to revert back to stock recovery and then flash twrp again.
Does anybody know how to do that without flashing an entire stock Rom?
Thanks

Hi
Why you just flash TWRP again and start from begining?
Anyhow if you wish to reflash your stock recovery You need to reflash a stock boot.img
Here you have 2 ways to do it:

In those threads the point was to re root but the principle is valid you can use them as guides

I had this problem and found out in my case, at least, it was because when I rooted, I didn't "format data" during the process. I've been told that if you don't format data during the process, you leave the data partition encrypted, and thus it can't be mounted (at least by non-system apps and processes). No guarantees here as always, but If you back everything up and redo the root process and do the data format, then you may be able to mount data. At that point you can restore your apps and info. I've also read (but haven't tried this!) that you can do a nandroid backup and restore ALL your data from that nandroid after you reset your phone (which the data format will do). You should google everything I have suggested and see if you can get what you need in this way, without having to reflash the ROM entirely or try to revert to stock recovery.

Hi. Yes, I had to format everything. Now it works. Also the issues I had with Titanium Backup are gone. I flashed the ExtSdFix and I'm almost running like on Kitkat, yeah

[TWRP] Backup and Restore with TWRP

My OP6 has the TWRP 3.2.2 installed, with OOS 5.1.9 and Magisk. I would like to try out the new HAVOC rom, so i have done a full TWRP backup of all the partitions of the phone, and another one with only the BOOT, SYSTEM and DATA partitions.
But I have many doubts about the reliability of the TWRP restore: I read several posts related to bootloop and failures. I would like to avoid having to reinstall the whole phone from scratch.
Has anyone successfully full backed up and restored on the OP6 with TWRP? If so, which partitions did you backup?
The alternative would be to use Titanium backup, but the restore procedure would be much more complex.
I want answers about this as well. What partitions do we backup? What's the process to restore? I tried backing up everything then restoring it and i got a blank screen when I was suppose to see the boot animation.

Our TWRP is very buggy i tried to restore whole backup using twrp and it failed showing error. But somewhere i got solution in xda.
Backup only data, system and boot and restore it will work.
But for safety always keep one extra full backup of all things like efs,modem, data, system, boot, vendor. Because sometime if something goes wrong u have rescue operation always there
Since this device is super easy to unbrick if needed I personally only keep a data backup of each ROM I use on my flash drive.
So I don't need to do a full setup when flashing a different rom.
Otherwise if something crazy happens and the device gets bricked, it's fixable with a PC.
