[Known Issues]
Android Pay may not work correctly
Some stability/performance issues
After upgrading to Android N, you will not be able to directly downgrade back to M builds. Our customer service team has a special build of Android M that will allow you to downgrade, but this will format your device. If you'd like to flash back to M, please contact Customer Support.
Please keep in mind that this is beta software. This build will not be as stable as our official OTA releases.

For Users facing encryption problem with Modified TWRP:
1. Backed up everything to PC (whole of Internal Storage including and not limited to Titanium Backup folder, Music, Pictures, etc)
2. Reboot into TWRP 3.0.2-1.28
If you were already encrypted, it asks for a password (pattern or pin), provide and if it goes through, great and to step 4, If you’re stuck, read on…
TWRP doesn’t accept your password and says ‘Can’t Mount Storage: Connect to PC and Type these in Fastboot:
i. fastboot format userdata
ii. fastboot format cache
iii. fastboot format system
iv. fastboot erase recovery
v. fastboot erase boot
vi. fastboot reboot
vii. fastboot flash recovery <twrp28>
3. Reboot phone into Recovery
4. In TWRP, Wipe – Format Data. Confirm.
5. Once done, you can transfer from PC to Phone or use a USB OTG, the files your need to flash:
* OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_016_all_1611302306_cc5d2327b14247fd
* SR5-SuperSU-v2.78-SR5-20161130091551
6. Flash ROM (OnePlus… file)
7. Flash SuperSU SR5
8. Flash TWRP AGAIN
9. Reboot into Recovery
10. Reboot System
Boot would take about 4-5 minutes on an average

Recommendation
I recommend this-
Its unversaly. I use this on every rom.
Regularly updated.
http://zackptg5.com/android.php#disverfe
XDA Thread for this-
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389
P.S. I never format data while updating before flashing this (never needed, it works fine without that). I onlyformat data whenever i want pure clean install of any rom.
Just make sure to flash this after rom and after custom kernel or anything that edits boot. But flash this before Magisk. So. In short-
1. Flash- rom
2. Flash custom kernel or any thing that edits boot
3. Flash this to decrypt and to boot ur device successfully
4. Then flash Magisk
Note1: When you need clean install then follow these steps-
1. Factory reset (as normal when u do but if u r flash pure stock than wipe everything- i recommend this everytime for every stock(based) rom)
2. Reboot to recovery again
3. Click on Format data, type yes and format it.
4. Reboot to recovery again
5. And now go on flashing as mentioned above before these steps.
Note2: When u just need to update and not clean install. Then follow these steps-
1. First make sure to remove all magisk modules (when enabled it makes issues - after Magisk 18 and Pie update - before these updates i never got issues)
2. Now in twrp flash update zip
3. Flash anything that edits boot (ex. - custom kernel) if you want.
4. Now flash Magisk
5. Don'y flash any tweaks etc yet. (xXx NoLimits also)
6. Reboot.
7. Now if you want flash tweaks, modules etc.
8. And now only you are ready to flash xXx NoLimits again if you want.

*I guess this may help many of you in many cases.*

Can the DM Verity n force encrypt disbler installed after magisk and without formatting data
And which one is best for Android pie

Magisk must be flashed after dm...zip. But if you have already installed magisk then no worries. Flash DM Verity n force encrypr disabler and then again flash magisk. No need to format data in this case. Format data only needed when you are doing pure clean install of stock (based) rom. Check my signature, i am on OOS 9.0.2 that is android pie 9.0 and magisk v18. Decrypted (using that dm verity and force encrypr disabler).

[TWRP] 3.3.1 Aroma/Busybox compatible (ultra-low brightness)

Aroma compatible twrp (recovery.img) : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=6006931924117889478
(tested on latest April Xperia Pie : 47.2.A.10.45)
BASIC guidance :
Be sure to read NewFlasher thread carefully first (Widevine L3 instead of L1 for locked bootloader).
0) recovery download
1) fastboot mode blueLight :$ fastboot flash recovery 270recovery9omni8-1FBEkeymaster3-twrp3_3_1.img
2) reboot STRAIGHT to twrp and always backup /boot only before Magisk-ified (needed with /system only in case of complete re-initialization or format, and for Treble roms)
3) flash magisk (min 17.3)
4) boot Pie (SafetyNet and Playstore certified should be ok with latest Magisk app after few mn)
Note: don't force remove bloatware: just disable them, so they won't reappear after future ota.
Once done, with your original /boot backup ( plus complete/full Magiskified backup), you can switch, without format /data, to my (xz1 enhanced) aosp Treble /system image: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...arm64aosp-9-0-0r21-microg-ufofficial-t3878115 , and restore back SonyXperia later with your full backup.
Future upgrade(ota):
-XperiFirm new firmware download + move away fotaKernel..sin & userdata..sin & simlock.ta + newflasher(with greenLight!)
-reboot STRAIGHT to recovery (and backup /boot only, before Magisk-ified)
-flash latest Magisk (min 17.3)
-boot Pie (SafetyNet and Playstore certified should be ok with latest Magisk app after few mn)
Optionally:
(-install Magisk Screen recorder or Snapdragon gallery, or aospEmail-SnapExchange free of analytics... )
-For better battery use KernelAdiutor with [conservative]highCpu & [ondemand]lowCpu (Adaway...)
Note: with or without su/hack, NightLight dim brightness is actually broken (wip)
Supplement:
This edition includes latest Aroma File Manager and TA partition backup: saves copies in sdcard/TWRP/ of TA, modemst1&2, boot.img plus some /vendor files like the identification build.prop ( default.prop fstab.qcom gps.conf uevent.rc). Every backup proceeds a copy of previous sdcard/TWRP/ TA.bin modemst1&2.bin and Id. build.prop in sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/.
Recovery simplified source : https://gitlab.com/oF2pks/twrppoplardevice/tree/aromaBusybox_Omni-8_1 (47.1.A.12.270)
with : TW_TARGET_USES_QCOM_BSP := false & Busybox v1.22.1

No, just re-create (sdcard)/TWRP/theme/ui.zip exactly, and then launch Advanced§ReloadTheme from twrp recovery . Since I didn't include languages/*xml in them, you can only select Settings§Language without my uploaded themes (ui.zip) first. (Advanced§AromaFM & backupTA lines are also missing in regular uiBlueClassic.zip xml).
They are many twrp themes on xda, just be sure to use 3.3.0 ui.zip compatible edition.

Thanks for the new TWRP with Encryption. Device SOV36

Thank you for this fine version of twrp.
I am getting this error when making a full backup (ticked all partitions)
"error backing up system image, cleaning up folder"
I am running stock 47.2.A. 10.45 and j4nn kernel. Ric is off (i can write in system) and twrp are flashed.
i press "cancel" when asking for a password.
Normally the twrp just backup everything without any issues, so i must do something wrong??
Kind regards torben5247

Hi, your newest version have original theme from TWRP or that from your previous version ?

Why can't I install any other ROM with this recovery?

Xiaomi Mi MIX2 working encryption with latest Android 9 (Pie) ROM

(short) Tutorial in getting your Xiaomi Mi MIX2 encrypted with latest Android 9 (Pie) ROM released by xiaomi.eu (and propably also with the beta ROMs released by Xiaomi/miui.com)
Preparations:
- your phone is unlocked
- a custom recovery is installed on your phone already
- download OrangeFox recovery 9.0-1 or later (others may work too but had not tested for this tutorial / TWRP 3.3.0-0 may produce errors)
- download force-enryption script for Mi MIX2 Android Pie
- download NO enryption restore script for Mi MIX2 Android Pie (reverts fstab config to default - wipe of data needed)
- download latest Android 9 Pie based MIUI ROM (tested only with the modified ROM from xiaomi.eu - official beta ROM may work too)
- optional: download latest Magisk to receive root (may needed by your backup/recovery app to restore your apps within android)
CAUTION!
When folliging this procedure you will loose all current data on your device! DO A APP-BASED BACKUP IN ANDROID FIRST!!! (TWRP or OrangeFox recovery based backups won't work for this procedure!)
Have done your Backup? No? DO IT NOW! really!
Let the phone boot and encrypt itself after flashing the scipt linked in HowTo.
Up to now (bug has been reported) it is to be mentioned that encrypting Xiaomi.EU rom via setting/privacy/encrypt leads direct to PHONE RESET.
FORMAT DATA is required then to get it back to life. @lolo9393 thanks for that hint!
Exact proceedings:
1. you've done a backup eh? - good
2. ... did you save that backup on a other device than your phone? Remember you'll loose all data stored on the phone!!!
3. reboot your phone in your currently installed recovery
3.1 copy the OrangeFox recovery to your device
3.2 select "Install" and choose the OrangeFox recovery .zip file to install (replace your current recovery)
3.3 OrangeFox installer will reboot the recovery after its install
4. Select "Wipe"
4.1 Select "Advanced Wipe"
4.2 Select every Partition exept USB-OTG
4.3 Swipe to Wipe
5. reboot your recovery to recovery again
6. Select "Wipe"
6.1 Select "Advanced Wipe"
6.2 Select "Format Data"
6.3 type in "yes" and confirm that step
7. reboot your recovery to recovery again
8. copy the latest Android 9 Pie based MIUI ROM to your phone
9. copy the latest version of the force-enryption script to your phone
10. Select "Install" and select the Android ROM first then "Add to queue" and select the force-encryption script as second item to flash
10.1 Swipe to Install
11. reboot to system
11.1 go to "Settings"
11.2 scroll down to "SYSTEM SETTINGS" area
11.3 select "Additional settings"
11.4 select "Privacy"
11.5 scroll down to "ADVANCED" area
11.6 check the status of "Encryption & credentials" - it should state "Encrypted"
12. now continue in setting up your system (e.g. enable developer mode, enable advanced power menu, usb debugging if needed, ...)
13. DONE ...
... ok, maybe you're missing your apps and settings - here is a possible way to restore them ... (i personally prefer Titanium Backup)
Root & how to restore apps & app data
14. copy Magisk installer to your device
14.1 reboot your device to recovery
14.2 select "Install" and choose the Latest Magisk-vXX.X.zip file to install (in the log you should read something about "keep forced encryption" - this is good )
14.3 when done - reboot to system again
15. Install Titanium Backup (from a store or as APK from file)
15.1 copy your Titanium Backup or TWRP backup (that could be restored by Titanium Backup Pro) to insternal storage
15.2 restore apps & app data with Titanium Backup (for a detailed HowTo please visit official Titanium Backup Website: https://www.titaniumtrack.com/kb/titanium-backup-kb/titanium-backup-user-guide.html#restore)
15.3 Profit!
That guide may has helped you ...

FAQ
Q: Is that procedure ROM update safe? / What if xiaomi.eu releases an ROM update or my ROM has to be reinstalled?
A: When Xiaomi.eu releases an update you have to flash that script right afterwards that update in your favorite recovery. - No further actions should be needed. This procedure has to be repeated for every ROM update or reinstall.
Procedure is verified as working with update 9.5.9 up to 9.6.27​Q: Does TWRP recovery work also?
A: There is feedback that TWRP 3.3.0-0 does not work as intended (THX @mguz on post 11 for the feedback)
Maybe TWRP 3.3.1-0 that was released short ago solves that problem ...​

... hmm sorry did not get what you like to do - could you please describe in detail what you mean/like to achieve?

When there will be next build of xiaomi.eu what is the procedure to update it? Just install new in recovery without any wipes? Is force-encryption script needed when updating?

@raupe
VERY good work.
Very useful for people having security concern when using a TWRP.
My comments:
-This procedure is valid with any latest 3.3. TWRP version that can decrypt now. (?)
- This is applicable to all XIAOMI phone under PIE. (Fstab must be exchanged in the zip tool in order to fit with the phone model)
- NOTE :
Up to now (bug has been reported) it is to be mentioned that encrypting EU rom via setting/privacy/encrypt leads direct to PHONE RESET and FORMAT DATA required.

Hi,
- download force-enryption script for Mi MIX2 Android Pie
- download NO enryption restore script for Mi MIX2 Android Pie
both links are down, re-upload possible ?
EDIT: Links are working now

Help out a noob. Why would one need to have phone encrypted? Whats the purpose of encryption?
I'd like to update to 9.5.x Xiaomi.eu Pie but hear complaints of GCam, SuperSU, FindDevice, fingerprint, etc not working. Would encryption help these issues?

I'd like to update to 9.5.x Xiaomi.eu Pie but hear complaints of GCam, SuperSU, FindDevice, fingerprint, etc not working. Would encryption help these issues?

Its not about encr. Problems.Pie uses vendor for most stuff now and for gcam is needed additional line in build prop to make it work.magisk 19 can root it without problems

Hi,
thank you for this helpful tutorial.
First time I tried with TWRP 3.3.1-0 and it did not work (Bootloop).
With OrangeFox Recovery it works as described.
Regards

On official TWRP-3.3.1-1 works as intended, thanks!

Install GSI on S9 Exynos

Guys I successfully installed HAVOC-OS located https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development/gsi-havoc-os-t3930030. The steps I followed are mentioned below
1. Wipe everything except internal storage.
2. Flashed BRK3 Vendor https://mega.nz/#F!wFFQUYbI!GZvNOBSn1wVn8U9mQDzBiw!IQsjlYzA
2. Installed Endurance GSI kernel https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/samsung-galaxy-s9--s9-cross-device-development/kernel-endurance-kernel-v1-0-t3849434
3. Flashed the system image for ARM 64 A only
4. Boot system
5. Reboot to recovery and Flashed Mgisk
6. Gapps will fail to install at first. Just goto wipe -> Adv wipe -> system partition -> Resize. Reboot to recovery and flash Gapps
7. Reboot and enjoy
8. You can test other GSI Roms also and report. The thread is located at https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development

Thanks buddy. I was looking for the ways to run the GSI. And the method works. Good job

thanks for the guide! im still on an unrooted s9, but if everything works ill definetly make the jump. Can you tell us more about stability, bugs and if there are things not working

So after testing the ROM for 2 days I can say that
1. It is very stable and can be used as a daily driver
2. Everything works, I am not sure about Bluetooth audio though, haven't checked it
3. It can be heavily customized. Unlike LOS, where we have only few of these features available
4. Battery life is the best I got using any other ROM out there (check the screens below). and I am the guy who gets 3 hrs of SOT, when others claimed 5+ hrs on the same ROM.
5. Security patch is latest even as compared to the TW ROMs
6. Regarding camera... Its the same as LOS pie. Use gcam by idan 3.5 fixed and you are good to go.

fingerprint working?

Yes it is

Thanks for trying this out. I'm only a few months in with my exynos S9 on android pie, so I haven't yet learned the details about rooting/recovery for this phone.
I'll wait for your next update regarding daily use, and would love a more detailed step-by-step for installation if that's not too much trouble. I'm honestly loving those screenshots.

How about IMEI, BRK3 Vendor safe..?

Ok here is the detailed tutorial on how to install a GSI rom
1. First you need to wipe everything in TWRP. Just like you do, when you clean flash any rom
2. Than install the BRK3 vendor. Link is provided by the OP. It's a flashable zip file so just flash it like any other zip.
3. Flash the Endurance GSI kernel. Link is in the OP.
4. Next, download the GSI rom from the link in the OP. Remember to download the ARM 64 A-only variant.
5. Extract the files and you should get a . Img file. Copy that in the SD card
6. In the TWRP, goto install. Select flash image from the bottom right corner of your screen. Now browse the image file, that you copied and choose system image and install.
7. Boot to the system and than boot back to the recovery.
8. Now flash the magisk
9. If you try to install gapps, it will give an error regarding space. So just goto wipe -> advance wipe > system repartition > resize
After resize, you will be able to install gapps.
Flash gapps, automatic brightness fix ( link in the rom thread), AOD fix ( link in the rom thread) and reboot.
