This is problem in PitchBlack recovery. It can't decrypt data. I'm working on a fix. Untill then you can wipe data in pitchblack once to decrypt it.
Or go back to another recovery

I've wiped data, but whenever I go-to recovery,it will still ask me to decrypt
And what abt the inability of the recovery to read my internal storage?
I opted in for pitchblack so that I can use OTA (tho I still don't get the procedures to enable me use OTA,but I'm sure u will still put me tru personally,that site seems complicated)

You've to flash magisk to disable force encryption
Or just flash your stock boot.img, pitchblack automatically disables force encryption

Flashing magisk is not going to help with decrypting data. Either your recovery can decrypt, or it can't. If it can't, and you want to remain encrypted, then you will need another recovery which can decrypt. If you don't mind not being encrypted, then you can format your data ("format", not "wipe"). That will obliterate all the contents of your internal storage - so you had better backup all your photos, videos, etc, before formatting data.

For me works the recovery...but pc doesn't recognize device then...

Work in redmi 7 Global EEA

So whats up with this recovery is it usable or not? Can encryption be removed with formatting data? And also does miui ota survival work? I would like to use this recovery with xiaomi eu rom

Yes, you can
Wipe data and flash any encryption disabler zip
Or patch boot.img with magisk and flash with PB recovery
Pb disables dm-verity so it may cause boot loop on miui. you've disable dm-verity disabler

ashu7073
How Disable Dm-verify method here, automatically or from where?!.

Don`t use this recovery if you are flashing xiaomi.eu rom fingerprint / Pin won`t work no matter what you do use LR Team TWRP.

Good work, i was trying to find a proper TWRP for my Realme 6 Pro from lasat week.
Until now i was able to flash updates or downgrades just via Realme Flash Tool.
Do we still need to flash vbmeta_v2 in order for TWRP to work properly?
Testing now.
Update:
It does need the OF_avb-patcher.zip tp be flashed in order to keep TWRP after restart and to decrypt MPT storage and phone corectly.
I did not flashed it and all the time got stuck in a boot loop and TWRP and all phone remained encrypted, was not able to do anything until i flashed Stock Rom via Realme Flash Tool.
Disclaimer: Flashing Stock Rom will make TWRP gone, to preserve it, follow the steps:
1. Flash Stock ROM .ozip
2. Flash patched-vbmeta-v2.img
3. Flash TWRP from above link
4. Flash OF_avb_patcher.zip
6. Flash Magisk via TWRP (If required)
7. Done

The same issue i was getting with the previous TWRP versions, cannot access MTP storage. Also while phone on, cannot copy anything on storage.

Please provide screenshots of your problem. I assume that you are trying to copy files to an encrypted internal storage. Decrypt /data or copy files to SD card

Can't delete file from phone with root explorer so i tried with TWRP as usualy and for the first time IT DOESNT WORK!! Never seen that before. Though system's not mounted as read only. What to do..?
Do nothing. vendor, product and system partitions are R/O, because they are part of new type partition named "super". It is dynamic partition that is not editable.

Tried to flash (both trough TWRP & Tar file flash) but booting into Download Mode only. Its for M21/M215F, is that why its not working on M215G?
Its showing some red error msg like Custom Binary Invalid & vbmeta, something like that.

Same error repeats :
ODIN MODDE (AVB Fail)
recovery: Error verifying vbmeta image: invalid vbmeta header (6)
I even tried flashing another vbmeta zip file (906kb) which had worked before during flashing GSI but even after that I got same error.

Flashing gsi doesn't need null vbmeta.
* Extract the zip
* Flash recovery.img into recovery partition using any other recovery
* And check if ure getting vb meta error or not
If yes try flashing the vbmeta file i attached before
* If the problem still persist contact me on telegram @naz664

1) Actually null vbmeta was the issue I was facing on SM-M215G (while flashing GSI) and as per Dev GuruPrasadAH, he gave me null vbmeta file which solved the problem and after that GSI booted.
2) I already had done that, when i had flashed recovery img to recovery partition, same error was showing.
3) Now the phone only boots to download mode, so I think I should flash stock ROM again.

Ok may be it will only work on M215f (2020 edition)
If you have any more queries contact me on telegram @naz664
Okay.... Here I am! I'm the kid who gave OldNoob the null vbmeta. So here, I dont think the problem is the vbmeta. Ive only seen this happen when either the devicetree/kernel is mucked up. SO, I have two suggestions:
1. @naz664 can you rebuild with universal9611 tree and kernel like used in this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...y-project-unified-r11-1-m21-m21s-f41.4252089/
2. Can someone share boot.img of m215g(not m215f). its really simple - just execute the following (from pc with adb installed) while in recovery mode:
Code:
adb shell dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img
And attach it to ur reply. Ill fix and post (possibly) fixed recovery image.
Chill

Notes:
What's posted below is a work in progress, but it should suffice to unblock efforts to build custom ROMs for this impressive tablet.
This is unofficial and unsupported, so the usual caveats apply. Since we don't flash the bootloader, you should be able recover from any problems...but nothing is guaranteed.
Not working:
Support for metadata encryption (which causes mounting errors in log)
Downloads:
twrp_3.7.0_12-2_X200XXS1CWA3.tar.md5
twrp_3.7.0_12-2_X200XXS1CWA3.img
Change Log:
v3.7.0_12-2 (2023-02-28):
Updated to X200XXS1CWA3 (Android 13) OEM stock kernel (Jan 2023 Update).
v3.7.0_12-1 (2023-01-22):
Updated to X200XXU1CVL5 (Android 13) OEM stock kernel (Dec 2022 Update).
v3.7.0_12-0 (2023-01-01):
Fixed issue with MTP sometimes not starting until state is toggled in the Mount panel.
Switched to TWRP 3.7.0 release built from new AOSP-12.1 branch.
Updated to X200XXS1BVJ1 (Android 12) OEM stock kernel (Oct 2022 Security Update).
v3.7.0_11-1 (2022-10-24):
Adjusted dynamic partition size and removed redundant backup image.
v3.7.0_11-0 (2022-10-09):
Updated to TWRP 3.7.0 release built from AOSP-11 branch.
Updated to X200XXU1BVI6 (Android 12) OEM stock kernel.
v3.6.2_11-1 (2022-09-11):
Fixed Fastboot Mode (fastbootd) so that dynamic partitions (system, product, vendor) can be managed in TWRP.
v3.6.2_11-0 (2022-09-04):
Initial TWRP 3.6.2 release built from AOSP-11 branch.
Instructions:
From OEM stock firmware:
Unlock bootloader
Hold Vol Up & Vol Down buttons during restart to enter Download mode
Install TWRP to AP with Odin
Hold Power & Vol Up buttons during restart to enter TWRP recovery
From existing TWRP install: (No need for data wipe.)
Hold Power & Vol Up during restart to enter TWRP recovery
Tap Install->Install Image, select your image (.img) file, pick Recovery partition, and then swipe to install
Reboot to Recovery
What about rooting with Magisk?
These images are not supplied pre-rooted with Magisk, since it's against the terms of use laid out by Magisk's developer, John Wu. To root the TWRP image yourself, simply use Magisk Manager to Select and Patch the boot.img file. More details on this process are available here. Note that you should just patch the boot.img file and not the whole AP tarball, since this device's bootloader doesn't like the empty vbmeta.img that Magisk will provide.

Additional Notes:
Ian's Multidisabler script has an issue on this device preventing it from disabling stock recovery auto-restoration. I'm hoping that a fix is forthcoming.
If you root this device with Magisk, be sure to patch only the boot.img file. Patching the AP tarball will generate a blank vbmeta.img, which this device's bootloader doesn't like for some reason.
Works on LTE version sm-x505 ??
Also which is better tab A7 or tab A8 ??
works perfectly. what i did was after rooting with magisk, i downloaded the official twrp app from playstore and downloaded your img to my tab. then i just flashed it from within the app. no issues.

I am so delighted to see that there is major development for this device.
This will open the door for future custom ROMs.
Thank you Magendanz for your effort in bringing this to us.
I can say that is working as expected, thank you so much man. I thought that with TWRP we could be able to install a GSI ROM at least, but nothing at all lol

I think it's possible, but just using ChonDow_Flasher didn't work for me...I suspect because the bootloader isn't seeing an AVB hash footer on the GSI image. I had a similar experience when I built TWRP without the hash footer.
Unfortunately, I'm getting a segmentation error when trying to add a hash footer to the GSI using avbtool. It's probably a partition size issue, but I haven't had the time to troubleshoot.

I had tried different ways also but I give up, the only thing that I can think now is try to use the "reboot to bootloader" feature in TWRP. But well, this processor is going me crazy.

Once we get TWRP can't we just flash Magisk's zip file within TWRP like normally we do?
Also, after restart the tablet, when I tried to get back into TWRP it took me back to Android regular recovery. I had to flash TWRP again using Odin, after enabling MTP, local storage doesn't mount, I wasn't able to copy data in it.

No, you should patch the boot.img using the Magisk app, then flash it using TWRP or pack in a tarball and use Odin. Don't patch the whole AP, as Magisk will substitute a blank vbmeta.img that the bootloader on this device doesn't like.

Was just going to try this method but I'm on AVC1...I'm assuming I need to be on AVG1?
As long as the binary number is the same, im assuming dont quote me, you should be able to flash avg1 then magisk then twrp. Just update to the latest firmware.
I figured that's what I had to do but was trying to avoid that....just rooted a week ago and had no idea about AVG1.
So if I want to upgrade to AVG1 or any other firmware in the future I have to do the whole process again of patching boot.img, flashing through Odin, factory reset and setting up everything again? There's no way to upgrade and retain root?
Not unless you can recieve ota while rooted.

I successfully tested fastbootd with OEM images, but the LineageOS GSI I tried was still getting kernel panics. I assume it has to do with this bootloader's AVB 2.0 requirements, which we can't seem to work around in the usual way with a blank vbmeta.img.

No, the OEM for this device is Samsung. Please provide a link for this vbmeta disabler, since I've just been using the ones generated by Magisk and my own using avbtool make_vbmeta_image --out vbmeta.img.

Download (for Android 13 ROMs) (OOS13 Based)
Download (for Android 12.x, 13 ROMs) (OOS12 Based)
Download FBEv1 Version Oneplus 8 (OOS13 Based)
Download FBEv1 Version Oneplus 8Pro (OOS12 Based)
Download FBEv1 Version Oneplus 8Pro (OOS13 Based)
Boot it with: fastboot boot OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V19.img
or flash it with: fastboot flash recovery OrangeFox-R12.1-OPKONA-V19.img​
Orangefox R12.1 can only be flashed to the recovery partition if you have OOS12 Firmware, but you can still boot it with fastboot boot if you are on OOS11 Firmware and need to decrypt data on Android 12 or Android 13 ROMs.
Some things like USB OTG etc are not working when using fox_12.1 on OOS11 Firmware!
If the touchscreen is not working for you after booting/flashing Orangefox please Update your OOS/Firmware to a newer Version!
Take a look at this Post from TWRP in regards of Backup and Restore or
here from the Orangefox wiki.
Spoiler: Flashing Instructions and switching OOS Firmware Base
Keep in mind! Never flash a recovery file if you are not on the same OOS Firmware as the recovery is for, otherwise you will end up in Qualcomm Crashdump mode or just a black screen.
Always just do a fastboot boot recovery.img until you are on the same OOS Firmware on your phone as the recovery is for, only then you can flash it with fastboot flash recovery as well!
From OOS11 Firmware to OOS12 Firmware ROM
------------------------------------------------------
Check DDR RAM type (from Windows cmd)
adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type

That is due to mounting those for both ext4 and EROFS and of course you can have only one of them.
If you get a Bootloop after flashing a ROM and having done a Format Data do the below:
Boot to bootloader and:
- fastboot devices
- fastboot -w
- fastboot reboot

thanks so much for hookin up the op8 users with a recovery that has some substance
Am I correct in assuming that I'm not seeing anything in my data partition (for backup purposes) because of this?
Data decryption on OP8 and OP8 Pro is only working when using a OP8 series unified ROM which uses FBEv2 encryption.
FBEv1 encryption which the OP8 and OP8 Pro normally uses is not added to Orangefox (yet).

On which OOS12 Version are you? And do you have that on both slots?
Have you flashed Orangefox or just booted it?
Make sure you have OOS12 c35 or what you are on on both slots before trying to flash anything.
Then just try to fastboot boot Orangefox first and not flash it directly and see if you can install a ROM and boot to it.
I've tried C.36 with crDroidAndroid-12.1-20220721-instantnoodlep-v8.7, lineage-19.1-20221106-nightly-instantnoodlep-signed, it crash dump
and swithed to 11.0.11.11-20220218 crDroidAndroid-12.1-20220721-instantnoodlep-v8.7, lineage-19.1-20221106-nightly-instantnoodlep-signed, it also crash dump
You mean must c.35

No c36 should work as well. And have you flashed Orangefox or just booted it? So the crashdump comes after flashing a ROM and trying to boot to system?
just booted, I want to check OrangeFox-R12.1-Unofficial-OPKONA-V13 work first, but crash dump, not flash the zip now. But for the 11.0.11.11, OrangeFox-R12.1 should work

Hmm strange as it works for someone else on Oneplus 8Pro. So I dont know why it does not work for you. Sounds strange that it just gives a crash dump when booting into it. Normallly that happens if you flash Orangefox to your phone and have not the same OOS Firmweare on both slots!
Every test I made OOS on both slots. No hurry, recovery for 12 need time. I can wait, thanks your hardworking.

Also I know that there is someone else who build Orangefox recovery a few days ago using FBEv1 for Oneplus 8 and 8 Pro.
As my unified Orangefox now is using FBEv2 since that is what is used on Oneplus 8t and 9r so te Unified Version is using that.
So you will only be able to decrypt data with my unified Orangefox Version when you use some unified ROM which is using FBEv2.
I will check with the one who build Orangefox with FBEv1 for Oneplus 8/8 Pro if he has published that already somewhere.
Maybe the FBEv1, thank you very much. I'll test asap when you share it.

OK that Version is not fully ready yet therfor it is not published anywhere yet.
EDIT:
Whoops... just saw the top post... "Orangefox R12.1 can only be flashed to the recovery partition"... Will this affect Stock OOS12 to update in the future? or can I easily restore stock recovery?
****************
Hi! Does this work with OP8 OOS12 unlocked + rooted? can I do "fastboot boot recovery.img"? Not really worry about decrypt data, just want to get in to flash Magisk. OP has been very bad at releasing full ROM, can't extract boot.img for that purpose.
Like many (I think), I try official TWRP to "fastboot boot recovery.img" and the device got stuck... Anyway... I left the phone for few days..., it booted back in fine.

No it will not affect stock OOS to Update.
I'm using EvolutionX 7.3 (Android13) on a Oneplus8Pro. Do you know which version of the recovery do I have to download?
And also, which encryption does the rom use?

No. I dont know. Check with your ROM Support group or just try to fastboot boot the orangefog.img file and see which Version works.
I can boot all three version of the recovery, but it seems none of them can decrypt data. The Data partition dimension is 0mb.
Anyway, is the first time I use orange fox, and i don't know it very well....
