3. Twrp 3.1 recovery image modified for lyf water 8 Android 6.1 marshmallow from XDA

1. Solution Twrp mount Zero mb error screen lock pin solutions in appuals link
https://appuals.com/how-to-fix-twrp-unable-to-mount-storage-internal-storage-0mb/
Above link says
The first thing to try is if somehow your internal storage became encrypted when using a legacy screen lock method. Go to your Android
device’s Settings > Security > Screen Lock, and change your screen
lock method to either Pass or Pin. Create a new one. Reboot into TWRP,
and it should ask for a password – enter the pass or pin you just
created. TWRP will attempt to decrypt your device’s internal storage,
and if it succeeds, you should not have further issues. However, if
this does not solve your issue of “unable to mount data, internal
storage 0mb”, continue with the rest of this guide. Reboot your device
into TWRP again. Navigate to Wipe > Advance Wipe > Data, and choose
Repair or Change File System. Press Repair File System to see if this
fixes the issue. If not, continue. Press Change File System, choose
Ext2, and swipe to confirm. Now switch back to Ext4 and swipe to
confirm. Go back to TWRP main menu, then the Mount menu, and check if
your partitions can be mounted now. If you are still unable to mount
your partitions, you need to repair Internal partition, which will
most likely wipe your internal storage.

[Guide] Install Magisk On Galaxy s7 Exynos Safety Net in Green

Fistly, I am not responsible to any harm done to your device. You should know what you are doing.
Secondly, this WILL TRIGGER KNOX irreversibly.
You will also have to format your internal memory in case you have never done this before.
KEEP THAT IN MIND
So you are going to need twrp for exynos: here
Latest Magisk installer zip: here
Odin: here
Not entirely sure if it is required but force encryption disabler: here
1) Go to developer settings in your phone and enable "OEM unlocking". Transfer the magisk zip onto the device and the encryption disabler zip.
2) Shut down your phone and hold power button+home button+volume down to turn it on. press volume up and plug it into your pc directly (without a hub)
3) Open odin and load in the AP section the TWRP file (it's an .img.tar). Disable auto reboot and flash
4) Hold power+home+volume down and, after it leaves download mode, change from volume up to volume up.
5) REALLY IMPORTANT IN ORDER TO KEEP SAFETY NET is to press "keep system read only"
6) IN CASE YOU CAN'T READ THE INTERNAL STORAGE OF YOUR PHONE (check that by pressing on install and checking internal storage), go to format-->format data and type yes. It explains there that, by doing so, you will remove encryption.
7) Now go to install and flash the encryption disabler and then the magisk zip
In theory, if all of this has been properly done, magisk su will be installed and your safety net will be in green.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
Looking forward to any sugestions.
Here is proof that this works.

this is for version 7.0 of android and model 930f? in stock rom works as it is?

I'm on Oreo, and I tried to follow this.
I tried mounting USB OTG just to flash the encryption disabler and magisk but I had the verification failed error.
I don't have backup of my files (non-rooted so can't use Titanium backup). I also can't access data / internal storage using TWRP but I can't format my phone given my lack of backup. Any other way to fix this?

Why would you flash TWRP?
Won't that modify a partition? Or is TWRP present for only one reboot when selecting not to modify /system?
Do we need to unlock BootLoader anymore?
Would it not be beneficial for puerile if you posted a method to check if encryption was enabled and active, prior to performing these steps?
Thank you

That is what I am thinking about too...
I am on OREo as well. So, best would be to launch TWRP temporarily and flash then, isn't it?
I would do it this way as I have done it 5 mins ago with Sony xperia M5 E5603.
1. Backup DRM keys - if possible....
2. UNlock Bootloader
3. Boot TWRP remotely
4. Flash magisk
Is it that way? I dont wanna brick or loose my S7!!

Hi, I have TWRP and supersu now, is there a way to install magisk without unroot my phone ? Can i install Magisk and than leave supersu or i need first remove supersu and than install Magisk ?

Does this work on the canadian version of the s7 edge? Model number. sm-935w8?

Since you have TWRP installed, uninstall SuperSU and clean up it's files since they will trigger safetynet. Flash latest Magisk, no problem

Hello everyone,
I am quite desperate, trying to root my phone so that I can get access to my phone internal memory to run a photo recovery program.
I have been really stupid and I made the mistake to not back up my files of my internal memory before doing the format data step (amongst probably many other stupid things, let's agree I've been making things worse and worse).
I have followed the guide in this thread.
Phone details:
Samsung Galaxy S7 edge
SM-G935F
Android 8.0
Activities done:
- Developer mode
- USB debugging
-OEM unlocking
- Reboot
- Download mode
- ODIN
- AP: TWRP
- Reboot
- Got into recovery mode
- Got into TWRP (keep system read only)
- could not read internal storage of the phone
- format --> format data --> yes (to remove encryption) (FORGOT TO BACKUP FIRST)
I did not dare to proceed to step 7:
7) Now go to install and flash the encryption disabler and then the magisk zip
So right now I'm still in the TWRP after recovery mode reboot, having just formata data the internal memory (but with keep system read only).
--> Can I safely move on to step 7?
--> Should I try something else?
--> How do I do step 7? ((7) Now go to install and flash the encryption disabler and then the magisk zip --> Where do I put the encryption disabler and after magisk? Is this Odin again?)
I hope someone is willing to help me.
I realize I should not be messing with these things since I am not experienced/knowledgeable in this at all, but it is kind of a last resort hail mary step for me to try to recover my photos.
Thank you kindly for any help or suggestions.

After u removed data encryption via format data ,reboot to recovery yet again, since there is fixed modded TWRP by tkgg1996 there is no need for encryption zip.
Download fixed twrp by tkgg1996 here
https://mega.nz/#!oFd2RIpa!M2JYNFiurMlDp_jAblE8a4E2qQEYZ-yMXx8eMHhBZ7I
Then, in twrp click install and in bottom right corner select image file press it and now find downloaded twrp from link above select the image and select recovery,after it's done reboot to recovery again and no more worry about encryption ever again. Now u can flash whatever u want
You don't really need to flash magisk ,it is only if u wanna hide root and device to be certified in play store. But can't hurt anyway and it's the best root option. Flash magisk 18.1 in recovery

Thank you very much Scorpionea!
I managed to get the right version of TWRP installed.
- However, I seem to still not have root access? (Or at least Diskdigger photo recovery tells me).
- I also do not manage to install Magisk (I tried several ways, with image, zip, magisk manager). Unfortunately I cannot post an image yet. The error message says: updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file '/external_sd/Magisk-v18.1.zip
Updating partition details...
Failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)
...done
- In TWRP my internal memory shows up as 0 (does not mount?)
- I bought an sd card and tried to install Magisk from there, same lack of result. The SD card does show up in TWRP
Thank you very much for taking the time to help, I really appreciate it

It seems encryption is still there, you must format data in twrp again ( remember doing this you will lose all data )Format data type yes, when done reboot to recovery again and should be all good
You must use modded twrp if I don't wanna see anymore internal storage at 0. Then try flashing magisk again

Hi, i unistalled supersu completly, but when i try to flash magisk zip from TWRP i got an error;

[GUIDE] Manual Update P20 PRO with HuRUpdater and TWRP

If you have unlocked bootloader and TWRP, you can flash a newer firmware using HuRUpdater
This steps can be risky for your device if you don't know what you are doing, so try to read some guide about flashing first
before attempt these operations if you are a new to these things.
I don't take any responsability of catastrophic failures and loss of data.
-- I did a titanium backup before the upgrade, but in my case no restore was needed as all data were retained.
In this simple update no factory reset was triggered.
Please read the HUrupdater thread also for more informations.
- Install Unofficial TWRP by Pretoriano80
- Download HuRUpdater 0.3 and put it in a folder in your sdcard
-Search the firmware for your device with Firmware Finder
Make sure you download the correct firmware version for your device (type, region code)
wrong firmware can brick your device
I used updated firmware files APPROVED for my device checked with firmware finder app.
I don't know if flashing NOT APPROVED files will harm your device. You have been warned.
I successfully updated my device from CLT-L29C636B130 to CLT-L29C636B131
***Don't try to rebrand your phone with this method***
- Use FullOTA-MF images of the firmware and download the 3 files needed
in my case:
update.zip
update_data_full_public.zip
update_full_CLT-L29_hw_spcseas.zip
- rename the 3 files to:
update.zip
update_data_public.zip
update_all_hw.zip
and put the files in the same folder with HuRUpdater 0.3
(optional)
- The Update will overwrite your TWRP custom recovery so to retain it automatically rename the TWRP IMAGE
twrp_clt_0.1.img to recovery.img and put in the same folder with others files.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- Remove all security locks from your phone before rebooting to TWRP.
Go to System- Developer Options
Disable Screen lock (third row)
this will suffice to remove the security locks of the phone (sequences, pin,fingerprints)
-Reboot to TWRP
If you are rooted, remove Magisk first with its uninstaller. I don't know if it's needed but better don't have things like that
messing around during the update. You can reroot later anyway.
-Go to the folder with the files and flash the system using the HuRUpdater_0.3.zip ONLY
That great tool will do all the job needed. After system, it will reflash the TWRP recovery IMG you previoulsly renamed
overwriting again the stock ramdisk_recovery that comes with the firmware.
It will take some minutes, don't panic and let the process end.
You will see some red errors but don't worry,it's fine
- Reboot in your TWRP to check (from inside TWRP , reboot - recovery, be sure not to have a usb cable plugged or it will trigger stock EMUI e-recovery)
- Wipe dalvik and cache
- Reroot new system with Magisk
-Reboot to system and restore the security lock in developer options
- Restore your fingerprints and pins
- Enjoy the update.
Thanks to @zxz0O0 for this great Tool, works good on P20 pro too.
And obviously @Pretoriano80 for his recovery.

Working adb sideload?

If an update is already approved by Huawei, can we just download the firmware through HFF and place it in the appropriate folder, go to SYSTEM to check for updates, and then install it?

I really don't know, and I don't think it will work.
As far as I know this is the only manual update method for now.
I just updated to unapproved .150 for my c636 and all seems fine

If I reinstall twrp by renaming it as recovery.img, will HuRUupdater install the twrp in recovery_ramdisk, or will it replace eRecovery instead?
If twrp doesn't replace eRecovery, how do I get to eRecovery? As of now, whenever I want to enter recovery, it will get to twrp.

eRecovery is not replaced.
To enter there try other volume button or with a cable plugged

If twrp doesn't replace eRecovery, how do I get to eRecovery? As of now, whenever I want to enter recovery, it will get to twrp.

when booting there is a screen prompting to whether you want to go to eRecovery by pressing up or just boot into system and something ike that

The guide never said that you need sdcard
it said, that u need to put all those three files in same folder with the HuruUpdater.zip , and of course you can put it in your internal storage
i wont explain anything here. you better re-read the whole main post, as it already very clear
- put all files in one folder
- reboot to twrp
- flash huruupdater.zip
- boot to system
- reboot to twrp
- flash magisk to reroot
which step exactly that not understandable ? :silly:

I can install that's style orjinal filmware ty so much

Forgive me if this is not the appropriate forum, one question:
I have the Huawei P20, for this phone I only have 2 firmware files, the "Update .zip" and the "update_full_EML_L09_hw_eu.zip ".
Can't find the "update_data_public.zip"
Can I install the new firmware with Hurupdater anyway ? Thanks in advance.

You should check and ask at P20 and HURupdater threads.

Hello! Thank you very much for this tutorial .. A question.. I am in Chipset-boston 8.1.0. 001 (01DL) I have the bootloader open, just by installing the recovery that you say in the tutorial and then the other steps, I would not have a problem, right?

Custom ROMs and Recovery for Realme C12

Are you disappointed to see that there are no threads in Development section of XDA?
No worries, since Realme C11, C12 and C15 MTK share similar specs, things that are made for other two devices will work in our device too.
So our Custom ROMs and TWRP etc., are at Realme C11 forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/f/realme-c11-roms-kernels-recoveries-other-deve.10991/
Flashing Custom Recovery
First backup stock recovery
If you rooted the device, then see this, else follow below.
- Connect your device to PC
- Shift + Right click in platform-tools folder and select open command window here
- Run below commands to backup stock recovery
Code:
adb reboot recovery
adb root
adb pull /dev/block/by-name/recovery
adb reboot bootloader
You will get a file named recovery in your platform-tools folder. Rename it to stock-recovery.img and place it in safe place.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- Download latest TWRP from here in your PC
- Download vbmeta.img from here in your PC
- Place those two .img where platform-tools is extracted.
- Rename recovery file to custom-recovery.img
- Run below commands in command prompt that you opened above
Code:
fastboot --disable-verification --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash recovery custom-recovery.img
fastboot reboot recovery
Custom Recovery is not permanent when you are using Stock ROM. It will be replaced with stock recovery after you boot to Stock ROM.(See 2nd post to overcome this)
There is no Hardware button Combo like Power + Vol Up to boot to recovery mode. Only way is to use adb/fastboot or root
Spoiler
You cannot see files in Internal Storage because of decryption(FBE) is broken in OUR device's TWRP. So use External SDCard for flashing if you are using TWRP
It will be blank for 1½ minute when you boot to TWRP 3.5.0. Don't touch the screen when it is blank. Press Power Button once to wake up screen in TWRP.
Flashing Custom ROMs
- Download custom ROM from here
- Place it in your External SDCard
- Backup the things in your InternalStorage, because we are going to wipe it.
- Boot to TWRP with below command
Code:
adb reboot recovery
- Choose Wipe and select Format Data and type yes
- Go back and choose Install and choose External-Storage in Select Storage at bottom
- Select the custom ROM zip that you downloaded above
- Flash it and Reboot
- Enjoy!
Spoiler
If you get recovery bootloops, then flash stock recovery. See below post to flash stock recovery
List of ROMs for C12​Below ROMs are only for UI1. So don't flash when you are in UI2
Havoc-OS
ArrowOS
LineageOS
exTHm UI
PixelPlusUI
WaveOS
CipherOS
PixelExperience Plus
FluidOS
PixelExperience
Thanks

How to stop stock ROM from flashing stock recovery and keep custom recovery?
To do this, you need to root your C12 with Magisk.
Flash below attached RealmeRecoveryKeep.zip in Magisk app and flash custom recovery. Enjoy it accross reboots in stock rom.
Any recovery like TWRP, PBRP, SHRP, OrangeFox etc., will work with this.
Flashing Stock Recovery
Flashing it is same as TWRP.
Below I have attached Stock recovery from A.83, but it may work with any other version of UI1.
Don't flash this in UI2
First extract the zip and flash like TWRP.
SHA1 of img is:- a6ceb27226d09d6fbe9069f5e9f5448efaa10268
Guide for Flashing Stock ROM is at https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/gsi-phh-q-r-gsi-flashing-for-realme-c12.4244979/post-84630979
Thanks

I can't backup stock recovery. Getting this error:
adb: error: failed to copy '/dev/block/by-name/recovery' to '.\recovery': remote open failed: Permission denied
My bootloader is unlocked and I got magisk working.

Since you are rooted, run below commands in Termux to backup stock-recovery to internal storage.
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/recovery of=/sdcard/stock-recovery.img
Copy this stock-recovery.img to a safe place in your PC or External SDCard.
And also you can flash TWRP using
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/TWRP.img of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery

thanks a lot, i thought I got stuck with stockrom and have developer support for it

Hi!
I need to flash back my stock recovery. I have a question.
Should I flash the vbmeta.img too at first? (Just like I did while flashing twrp?)

I would like to ask if the roms above now work on Realme C12 ui2 and if it's safe to flash a custom rom? Especially Arrow OS? Why can't they be flashed on ui2? Any idea on how to downgrade to ui1 so that I can flash it with Arrow OS?

There is only Lineage OS for UI2 which is at https://github.com/techyminati/releases/releases/tag/1.0.2-RMX2185
Other ROMs based on UI2 will come soon.
Also if you want to downgrade to UI1 follow below steps
- Flash TWRP from https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=7161016148664786711 (Don't use other TWRP)
- Boot to TWRP
- Enable 'Skip Treble Compatibility error' in settings
- Flash ozip
- Format Data and wipe cache
- Reboot

Hi! Thank you for the reply HemanthJabalpuri ! I would like to ask if you know the download link for ozip? I'm familiar with the other steps on TWRP except for ozip? Would I need to download ozip on Realme C12 or is it a setting? Do you know a reliable, stable and trusted download link for ozip? I apologize for the dumb question. Thank you for the explanation btw, I appreciate it!

Normally, you can download latest stock rom(which is usually in .ozip format) can be found at realme website by searching 'Software update - realme' in Google to go your region specific site.
But many custom ROMs have bugs with different versions of stock rom. So suggested stock version version to be less buggy with custom roms is A.87.
All the latest and older .ozips can be downloaded at https://realmeupdater.com/downloads/archive/RMX2185/
So for A.87, here is the link for it https://download.c.realme.com/osupdate/RMX2185_11_OTA_0870_all_1TbYEnns8MEW.ozip
Thanks

My experience - PIXEL EXPERIENCE PLUS (A11) - GSI-Unofficial

Stable enough to be used as your daily driver.
This rom is not developed nor maintained by me!
Credits: @ponces
Requirements: full stock EMUI 9.1, with stock recovery_ramdisk
Download arm64-ab-11.0-xxxxx
or arm64-ab-vndklite-11.0-xxxxx
Download: Link
Extra tip: try Lawnchair launcher
Install like any other GSI Rom including the Nfc patch.
IMPORTANT! Before booting up the ROM, you will need to perform a factory reset in stock recovery!
Quick and easy way to install GSI & NFC :
1. Extract the ROM .img file from the compressed file.
2. Flash extracted ... .img in fastboot , use command
fastboot flash system (file_name).img
3. In fastboot flash TWRP over eRecovery (!) - guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-official-anne-9-lineageos-16-0.4151163/post-83603363
4. Run command fastboot reboot , enter TWRP (press and hold Volume Up)
5. In TWRP unmount all except SD Card , Vendor and System (unmount and mount again if needed) and flash NFC patch
6. Go back to the TWRP's main menu, select Reboot > Recovery.
7. Now you can perform factory reset in stock Recovery.
Note: the TWRP will remain instead of eRecovery.
MAGISK ROOT :
(Note: If you don't plan to use TWRP, simply install patched Recovery_ramdisk in fastboot mode. Run command
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk magisk_patched-23.img ).
Install TWRP-9.1
https://mega.nz/#!tkcTlATI!A8UJGPBGtxJbLcUOJoxCGJj5PFZXzCnjbb3OkwqKTP8
over eRecovery (it's necessary on EMUI 9.1 - Guide
( Note: for those who want keep the erecovery as a fail-safe:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-erecovery-with-twrp-installed-on-it.4357127/ )
1. In TWRP flash Mount-fix .zip file
2. Reboot into TWRP
3. Select 'Install Image' and flash
patched recovery_ramdisk
https://mega.nz/file/lp1kHLxJ#htCMaPjSsg_dy0w_jNOft-t_DZRAPwhOvwy_Wr2cjX8
over recovery_ramdisk.
4. Go back , select Reboot > Recovery.
5. Install Magisk manager apk:

Contactless payments with Magisk v23.0 )
How to boot into patched Recovery :
- Restart your phone, when appears the yellow warning on the screen, press and hold Volume Up for ~ 2 sec,
release the button and immediately press and hold again for ~ 2 sec. Repeat it 6-7 times, the device will reboot into Stock Recovery (you can perform Wipe cache or Factory reset, also you can use dload method).
ROOT WITH SUPERUSER:
1. In TWRP flash Zip.file
2. Install Phh Superuser apk .(if needed) https://mega.nz/file/A4sWFYxZ#9KMkvKRgzU7oCvgThPFQOpv_wKAnLZcZVWcJ03HDyNE

GSI rom is not related to recovery_ramdisk, so it is possible to use the Magisk root on any GSI roms .

I was recently thinking to switch on that rom because there are no more lineageos updates.
Is there an easy way to backup and restore data from lineage to pixel?

It should be clear, hm?
"AB" in GSIs is not the same thing as physically having AB partitions .
"AB" in GSIs means SAR - system-as-root ( on EMUI 9.1).
P20 Lite supports Project Treble AB, yet is an A-only device ( does not support Seamless Updates).

IMO you are doing something wrong .
If you have followed instructions in OP to the letter, it must work. Today I tested SuperUser, also works .
Try total clean flashing - flash service ROM and try again.

Very strange i made a clean install,
I went back to stock 9.1.0.132 with DLOAD
I unlocked bootloader and flash the rom with fastboot, i flashed TWRP (9.1) for nfc,
I made a wipe with stock recovery, I booted again on TWRP , i flashed magisk mount fix reboot again on TWRP flashed patched recovery on recovery, and exactly same issue,
I used the same twrp for nfc and magisk. Magisk aint working on last andy Yann build either but works on Emiritein Lineage Os build ( but this one is older)
Did you tried with last build?
For Pixel I tried superuser app on fdroid but doesnt work
