[help] files and folders weirdly renamed in twrp recovery Mi A2 - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

i succesfully booted into twrp using fastboot, trying to flash twrp installer for mi a2 inside a temporary twrp. but, when i tap install, and go to sdcard directory, all folder and file names are messed up. i dont know why. because of that, twrp cannot find any zip files becoz my files have been renamed into weird sentences leaving no extension behind it. but, when i boot to system, my files and folders still originally the same. thanks

this is why...
you can use adb sideload to flash something that will not be installed on sdcard tho, I used adb sideload to flash a zip that puts cerberus as system app

have you reset your phone? does it work for you? actually i already flashed stock my phone rom with mi tool, and installed the beta pie update. the same problem persist

the reason i want to use twrp becoz i want to flash an audio mod zip, it's called viper4android. for previous android oreo, i did it using magisk modules. it worked perfectly. but now, everytime i install that module through magisk, viper keep asking me to install its audio driver, i click yes, then a reboot needed, but it still requesting it everytime i reboot my phone. does anyone know how can i install viper4android on my a2?

that's right, Viper4Android(Magiskmethod) is not working anymore on Pie. you can try to flash the viper installer trough adb sideload, TWRP->advanced->adb sideload->(start it), then go to your pc and run adb sideload filename.zip, if you get an error, try using PBRB or viceversa, let me know if you get Viper working on Pie

you don't need to factory reset... if you are just temporarily booting twrp.img, when you reboot your phone it will take the original (or patched) boot.img and it will boot normally, this is not a permament encrypted files bug

unfortunately it's not working. it caused boot loop for me, the zip flash successfully, then i reboot the phone, open viper, it asks to install the driver, i click yes, then reboot, my a2 stuck on boot loop, the android one swinging things... then i hold power button and my phone restarts normally. but viper still ask for driver. no luck. is there a way to install this driver manually? with root access, i can copy paste the driver files in my system directory. i doubt it works like that. thanks

I have this same issue. Ran into a bootloop issue, fastboot flashed a stock rom so I could get into my system. My entire sdcard is jibberish names. Even as my data is restored from my google account, it continues to be all jibberish as per OP. I would've thought as I restored the apps, normal named folders would be appearing but apparently not...

I faced the same it was fixed only after I flashed the latest (December) patched for magisk boot img. It first started after trying to flash twrp on pie. Bootloop fastboot flashed then again jibberish on any file manager plus camera was not recognising internal storage to store photos. Pc was recognising internal storage with again jibberish folder names but when I tried copying a file from pc nothing happened. It was only fix only after flashed patched boot like mentioned before

Hello, could you bettere explain how I could my encrypted file and storage back? I have the some problem TWRP + Pie but I'm noob...

If you're on official pie the only thing u need in order to get access to your data is the stock recovery and boot image. You can download the latest fastboot rom (or the one u have if it wasn't the latest) and fastboot flash boot.img and recovery.img. you can find in the room section patched boot images for root with magisk. For start you can try flashing only that, leave the recovery and see if it boots. If it fails to boot I'm afraid you have to fastboot flash the whole rom (it's a batch file and it runs all the commands automatically - it takes long around 25 minutes) but I believe your data partition will be formatted but you will have a working phone again

Also just a tip (correct me if I'm wrong) the data encryption on pie roms occurs the moment you put a security pin or pattern for lockscreen on setup wizard. If you don't the there is no encryption.

I don't flash, only use fastboot boot name.img, maybe the problem is related to this?

If I remember correctly I did a factory reset after flashing the rom with the patched boot.img cause after first boot I had the same problem with storage.

Ok but by doing a factory reset all data will be erased, right?

[rom & tutorial] update fake rom 8.2.0.2 to global dev official with lock bootloader

[rom & tutorial] update fake rom 8.2.0.2 to global dev official with lock bootloader
UPDATE YOUR FAKE ROM 8.2.0.2 TO GLOBAL DEV OFFICIAL WITH LOCK BOOTLOADER​*link ROM for ROOTED USERS WITH TWRP IS BELOW
Since I know most dont like the hassle of unlocking and wish to stay at locked bootloader but able to receive official updates.
I found a way to update your fake ROM (usually 8.2.0.2 NCAMIEC)
Accessible via MI PCsuite from mentioned fake ROM (if you are already on China ROM, you can't use this method)
Do follow below tutorial - no unlocking needed.
Only your mi6 & its cable ofc
PC/Laptop with proper ADB driver
Internet Connection
*******wipe data before flashing is highly recommended to avoid errors and FC
FIRST: MAKE SURE YOUR DEVICE IS IN RECOVERY MODE then CHOOSE "CONNECT WITH MI ASSISTANT"
SECOND : Connect your MI6 to your PC
- MI PCSuite still wont read your phone -
THIRD: Click the arrow on Update and Choose :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
R.Flash
and MI PCsuite will search proper update for you
FOURTH : Just wait until the download is done, then it will be updated
*NOTE THAT IF YOU DONT WIPE DATA BEFORE UPDATING;
FIRST UPDATE WILL BE FAILED
but dont be sad (lol)
TRY ONE MORE TIME
(at 81-83% MI PCSuite will show that the update is failed but your phone is still booting, why? because the data of 8.2.0.2 is a modified rom and updater will crash)
Current Update is 7.6.1
7.6.1 :WEB APPS OFFICIAL SUPPORT
QUICK CHARGE INDICATOR
ETC ETC
Good Luck.
FOR ROOTED USERS WITH TWRP: ​
Flash like any other ROM.
FLASH SUPERSU OR CHANGE THE BOOT.IMG TO EU OR ANY OTHER MODIFIED BOOT.IMG
(IF NOT BOOTLOOP)

Does that mean I need to rename the rom to update.zip and flash in recovery?

Is this the file? It's in Chinese. Did you manage to find an English version Mi Recovery that's suitable for Mi6?
So, anyone really tried it via recovery?? I am on stable chinese rom.
How to install this rom, i'm on chinese stable
can i install this without unlocking the bootloader ?

The language changed to wtv language your phone is on. I tried via twrp and got bootloop. tried via recovery with eu rom and nothing happened. I'm going to try the recovery again but on chinese stable or dev next.

Probably not possible unless you're already on the global stable 8.2.0.2 rom.
Edit: after trying with recovery on china dev, no good. Can't verify. Unless we have tgz file
if you are on chinese stable try this method
unlock bootloader (must have!)
fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1.0-sagit-v2.img (must be this version)
in TWRP
wipe-format data
copy ROM to internal storage (while still in twrp)
flash rom
restart
enjoy ROM
---------- Post added at 04:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------
if method gives bootloop, you should encrypt your files prior to boot
after flashing the rom, flash chinese orig recovery, restart recovery and choose 2nd option, 2nd option (a red message will appear). its ok, chose the only option available, and voila a green message will apear.
now first option to reboot and that's it your phone will boot (hopefully).
I talk about options because the only mi 6 original recovery i found is chinese so i don't understand anything.
But... as far as i can understand it will make a factory reset and will encrypt your files again.
without encryption miui won't boot. (don't know why though)

Yup, you're right. It was the encryption that was preventing it to boot. 2nd method mentioned worked. Thanks :good:
yeah, i got mi6 with eng bootloader now, i can see that the second option is wipe data/factory reset, so finally steps would be
unlock bootloader (must have!)
fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1.0-sagit-v2.img (must be this version)
in TWRP
wipe-format data
copy ROM to internal storage (while still in twrp)
flash rom
restart recovery
now should boot mi recovery
choose wipe data (second option)
restart system
enjoy ROM
please more confirm on this tutorial, thanks!
hmm, if i unlock bootloader, i wont receive any fota right ?
no, if you install official rom always will be ota

[GUIDE][GSI]Flashing GSI's with TWRP Fixes and Workarounds

Follow these easy steps
Makes sure you have the GSI image on your sdcard before starting this.
1.Unlock Bootloader
2. Boot into bootloader, check your slot if on B switch to A and vice versa.(fastboot set_active a/b)
3.Download twrp and flash it (fastboot flash boot boot.img)
4.Boot into twrp,Format data or in bootloader run this command "fastboot format userdata" to get rid if encryption else gsi wont boot then go to reboot switch slots to your opposite one, go to "install" navigate to your sdcard where you place the gsi , look for 'select image" then flash your gsi.
5.To flash gapps if your using a aosp gsi go to twrp then go into /wipe/advanced wipe/ select system on the options then "repair or change file system" then press on "resize file system" this will resize your system partiton back to 2.7gigs and allow you to flash gapps.
6.Go back to "reboot" and select the opposite slot that you selected on step 4, then reboot to system ignore the "no system image detected" message
7.Boot back into boot loader and run "fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" updated link with .45 update vbeta.img https://www.mediafire.com/file/by0s4xv6op9so0d/vbmeta.img/file
8. Your gsi "should" boot

Ok.
So today being a holiday, gave hefty 10 hours to try every single GSI mentioned in this thread. And here are my findings:
1. MIUI port - Boots, buttery smooth, no mobile data or VoLTE, as mentioned in the OP, ims.apk doesn't get installed, hence unusable.
2. OOS port - Bootloops, tried multiple times, no success.
3. One UI - Unable to flash the image, says unable to write in the system partition.
4. Xperia Port - Again, boot loop.
5. HOS - Unable to boot.
Did not try Android Q.
One more thing, as per the instruction, when I try to 'Format Data' through TWRP, it says unable to erase data, data partition busy.
I followed step by step for all the mentioned ROMs, can someone help me?
Also, ims.apk is uninstallable, tried many times.

1. The app has to be pushed to /system/app should work that way.
2. You should be able to wipe data if you go to bootloader switch to slot were trwp is not installed then switch back to were it IS installed then boot twrp and wipe data, thats what i do and it works.
3. Try the updated gsi's from the link i posted a few post back.
Also, i added lates .45 vbeta.img and patched boot.img for root on first post, enjoy guys.

I tried so many times, but the results are unchanged, only MIUI boots.
But when I pushed the ims.apk and added the lines to build.prop it got stuck at bootloop.
I tried everything, I just need OOS to boot.
Also, one more thing I noticed is, MIUI boots only when I don't flash permissive2.zip, when I flash this zip even MIUI fails to boot

Excellent keep up the good work

Ahoy there, good to see you.

Nice ROM.. work.. my problem is TWRP DECRYPTION ç.ç after install this rom i have problem to read file i have all folder encrypted
Does this rom require specific Pie firmware or are all compatible? I have tried a few roms on here an had nothing but problems trying to get them to boot etc even on required firmwares an dont wanna go through the nightmare of restoring it to stock functuality.

To update use the updater tab in settings, it should work even if you're encrypted

You won't be able to see your files within TWRP but updates through the updater will work
I'm going to try this soon, does anybody have a guide?
Does it require stock recovery to be flashed then wipe after instal or before installing rom?

Before installation
------------------------------
Make a back up of your data.
Download the ROM and Mind the G-Apps.
Installation
------------------
1. Copy the ROM and G-Apps to your ADB folder.
2. Install TWRP via fastboot in bootloader, I used official 3.3.0.2
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk "name of recovery"
3. Boot to TWRP.
Fastboot reboot (pull cable and hold up straight away)
4. Push both ROM and G-Apps to /tmp from the ADB folder.
ADB push "name of ROM" /tmp
ADB push "name of G-Apps" /tmp
5. Perform a wipe in TWRP.
6. Install ROM and G-Apps.
(Not sure if the below is necessary but I did it)
7. Boot to bootloader and install stock recovery.
Fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk "name of stock recovery"
8. Boot to stock recovery and wipe / data factory reset and wipe cache.
Boot ROM.
Rooting
-------------
I used the latest magisk but magisk manager 7.2.0.
Install via TWRP, you'll need to reinstall TWRP again..
From this point OTA's will take care of further updates so no need to wipe again.
So no changes in update script needed?
Sorry for the million questions but i have never hated a phone so much as this trying to flash roms an having to restore to stock etc.
I know this isn't developers problem but trying to save myself hours of the possibility of it going wrong yet again an trying to restore stock....
Appreciate everyone's help as this looks amazing, i despise EMUI.
I have a problem , my storage is crypted,i also can't install google chrome , can't save any photo , cant do anything

Yea I had this problem myself, I believe it was because I didn't use the stock recovery to wipe before the first boot.
Did you follow instructions?
Your SD partition had encryption from a previous time.
If you need to return to stock then follow the guide in my sig.

You don't need to change anything from the zip, it'll work on the P20 Pro out of the box
To push the zip you can use adb sideload or an external sd card and right after you flash the rom for the first time, wipe data using the stock recovery
Can I use an Open Gapps instead of the MindTheGapps ?
Does this rom have a deep sleep problem? I mean the situation when device cannot go to the deep sleep mode after charging the phone or heavy use and I need to reboot my phone to start deep sleep working again.

Were you able to root the previous 10 build? I have the 148 rooted with Magisk canary, same as the previous two builds (just root, no TWRP). Not sure if it makes a difference, but I don't do OTA updates. I always download and flash the OTA image in adb sideload, then flash the patched boot.img in fastboot.

Yes, it does work for me. I've always been doing updates like this, on 9 and 10. Download both OTA and the full image, extract boot.img from the full image, patch it with Magisk, then sideload OTA image in adb, reboot, and finally fastboot flash the patched boot.img. Never had a problem. The only thing is that you have to use Magisk canary build with 10; stable or beta doesn't work.

getting back to the topic at hand, I flashed this, then TWRP on top of this.
Booted back into recovery.
Reflashed stock boot image.
Now I got to plug this in and swap slots to reinstall TWRP.
Is possible that magisk and twrp are back to not playing nice to each other again?
(I'll test this out if I get a chance to swap slots)

I flashed September build like this no problem however when I try and adb the October build I cannot get into recovery, when trying it just boots back into system however I can get into fastboot, any ideas?
I'm no expert but did this ans it worked:
1. In TWRP recovery (created nandroid and wiped cache)
2. Flashed full update zip from official download link, then TWRP, then wipe cache
3. Reboot system and let it settle
4. Reboot into TRWP and flashed Canary Channel zip file
5. Wipe cache
6. Reboot system
Hope this helps.

Try using the fastboot image (not the OTA the image one) from the essential site.
Download it, remove the "fastboot or something wipe userdata maybe?" line from the flashall.bat script (or from flashall.sh if you're on Mac/Linux)
Then run the flashall.bat or flashall.sh script (again .bat for Win, .sh for the rest)
Should get you working again, albeit without root & twrp

Flashing Magisk v20 bootloops to recovery

Hello,
I attempted to root my Mi CC9 / 9 Lite and currently have a bootloop.
What I did:
-Flash TWRP from fastboot (success)
-Boot into TWRP (success)
-Wipe / Factory reset (success)
-Flashing Magisk v20 zip file (success)
-Then, reboot system sends me to TWRP again.
What I tried:
-The phone is not bricked. When I factory reset again from TWRP and boot to system, it boots up.
-Signing the boot image after flashing magisk using the zip file here (This did not work. Flashing the zip file returned a verification error)
Not quite sure how to root my phone at this point. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
You need the Enable encryption zip...it will boot it up.. boot loop is cause from MIUI trying to encrypted and failing.
Flash the zip in this thread... go to the fstab zip that will help you

What I do is this: I Boot in recovery and format data then I go to advance wipe and select data and then repair and select ext4 and swipe and then reboot recovery and flash the MIUI rom and then I reboot the recovery and mount system and vendor and flash the zip and then reboot and wait for it... you know it will boot up because after it boots up the bootanimation increases it's light before the actual booting in the system and the rest you can figure out... hope this helps you out.

I'll try that. Thanks a lot. Do you use the auto-decrypt (the one you linked) TWRP in this, or just regular TWRP. I am using just the pyxis TWRP.
Can anyone elaborate on what needs to be done? The previous responses did not explain how to ROOT the phone.
What I have just tried:
-flashed the TWRP img here
-did a wipe
-sent Magisk and the fstab zips to storage and flashed them (fstab first)
still gives bootloop to recovery. How to root this phone?

After you unlock the bootloader I just put it in fastboot mode and fastboot boot "(whatever you have it called... I renamed it recovery) recovery.img and then press the volume up button and then I install the image through TWRP and reboot recovery and then follow the steps.

I tried a combination of what you suggested and this guide and the phone booted up with root. However, opening the Magisk manager immediately says "your device needs additional setup" or something similar, and asks to flash a zip file. When I select flash, it says rebooting in 5 sec and stays in bootloop. Have you come across this?
use twrp by brigudav. It has also s built-in Magisk installer.
