Hi folks, can't restore nandroid backup using Elite Twrp. I got some issues with go back from f2FS data file system to text4. Do i have to revert back first to twrp version for my Honor bln21 device first ?
Need some help to avoid bootloop issues

Hi - My wife's OPO has a GPS that's starting to misbehave. I have a OPO that I'm not using very much anymore. My wife's OPO is on Lollipop, and my OPO is on Marshmallow.
I wanted to do a full TWRP backup of her phone, and then restore it onto my phone. Is this possible? Also, what special steps should I / shouldn't I do?
Thanks,
¿GJ?
Hi,
you just need to downgrade your FW to LP one and then you can do TWRP restore...
I did that couple times when I tried MM on my OPO...
Just be sure *NOT* restore efs. Your device might get hard-bricked and your IMEI might get lost. I repeat *DO NOT RESTORE EFS*.

Thanks @djha53k!
Is there anything I should be concerned about with respect to the IMEI or other radio stuff? Which partitions should I backup & restore from my wife's phone? I'm see the Firmware, EFS, Boot, System, and Data partitions.

Nope, just:
- do the TWRP backup of your and wife's One.
- download the latest CM12.1 - it include the LP FW itself.
- copy all data (SD included) off both mobiles to your PC
- wipe your One entirely in TWRP (SD included) in TWRP
- copy your wife's SD content to your One
- install CM12.1 in TWRP
- wipe System/Data/Cache/Dalvik
- restore wifes TWRP backup
- boot
In 99% your One will boot as your wife's One :angel:
Thanks, guys! I'll try this tomorrow!
Thanks for the help, @djha53k and @barisuraz! I was able to clone my wife's phone without any issues, and maintained marital bliss.
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.

hello all. i am a poco x2 user. i am using twrp (3.4.2b-0624) and 12,0.1 stable. now i often change my rom to custom roms. so i need to restore back my best setup rom. which partitions only should i backup from twrp? so that i perfectly restore my previous rom? previously i used htc m9, oneplus3t, those devices were ok with twrp backup and restore rom such as data+system partitions. but, with poco x2, i can see that the system partition is not there in twrp .besides there is SUPER partition.and i found that its huge in size and cannot copy /restore again.. please i need some proper understanding about this new thing in android 10. thanks in advance
We don't have so far TWRP for Poco X2 that is able to do proper backup. And then to restore they is another thing. You have to have hope and wait for official TWRP

Use migrate app to quickly restore your apps and data.. nandroid backup is dead in Android 10.
The TWRP has some bugs. You won't be able to use the restore function to restore the rom. It's better to download the fastboot rom or the recovery rom for the device. Better to be safe than to panic later when TWRP restore won't work.

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.

Hi, I was about to update my phone last night before attempting an update i did a Nandroid backup in TWRP all went through with no errors.
Anyway, when i try to restore it I get ExtractTarFork Error 255 but this only happens on the /data and /System partitions, After a bit of research it turns out it's because i had a work profile enabled at the time of backup.
Does anyone know of a way I can still restore this back up as i don't have access to the data any other way now as the android update killed my phone and I had to reflash the stock ROM. Is there any way i can remove the second work profile from the Nandroid file itself so i can restore?
Thanks for any help
(Device model - Oneplus 6 running stock rom)
