Hidden TWRP backups Oneplus 3T - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

OnePlus 3T A3010 Chinese, OOs 3.5.4 MM, franco.kernel r5, TWRP 3.1.0-1.
Just succesfully did weekly TWRP backup, but it unusually hidden. Before i did a lot of TWRP backups and copied it on my laptop, but now i cant do it. I can see backups on TWRP restore menu and TWRP file manager. Try to move folder with backups to emulated/0 (succesfully) but that folder is empty (from root explorer, TWRP file manager, MTP explore from laptop). So i delete it. But memory have not cleaned out, i have 26+ GB (size of backups stored on phone) hiddenly stored in memory.
How can i delete it W/O wipes?

[Q] Moving backups from PC to Internal Storage

I made a twrp backup and was able to drag and drop it to my PC for later use. Now the big question is...where do I move this backup to? I've simply moved it back into the backups folder located in my twrp folder in my internal storage. If I go to restore, I can see the backup folder along with another backup I named Stock. Will this work if I just restore the backup from here? It seems too simple. I have read about pushing the file using adb to internal storage and then installing it as a zip file. Problem is the backup is not a zip file. Any help will do. Thanks.

clockworkmod nandroid backup destination folder?

I just noticed that my nandroid backups made from CM recovery (v6.0.4.7) end up in /data/media/clockworkmod/backup...
This is eating up my /data partition and finally the backup stops with an error. After booting, I see the partition is full and I get a lot of error messages. I can recover from that by deleting the partial backup files with ES Filemanager in root mode from /data/media/clockworkmod/backup.
In the recovery menu I see /sdcard as the destination. Looking with ES Filemanager at /sdcard, I find the correct location for the backup files in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/... So it seems to me that there is no problem with /sdcard. At least not visible by ES Filemanager.
What happened here? Wrong link? Bug in CM-based Recovery v6.0.4.7 or in the last tenderloin nightly I have installed?
This is an HP Touchpad with 10.2-20140412-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin. I usually do weekly backups before I install a new nightly. So, with 10.2-20140405-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin the backup still worked fine. Unfortunately I deleted that older version, so I can't go back and check.
I am not sure where the problem is. I can do online nandroid backup and point my backup to the right location. But with CM-based Recovery v6.0.4.7 I can't change the backup destination.
Any pointer is much appreciated.

Copy Setup from OnePlus3T to OnePlus3T with CM13 (SULTAN)

So, I have two OnePlus3Ts. One is 64GB and one is 128GB; I want to transfer everything from the 64 to the 128 and basically just have it run the same without having to do all the restores, settings, etc. It will take a long time with amplify, greenify, my widgets, etc. I have a complex setup. Any advice?
Flash the same recovery on the second phone and install the same rom. Then restore /data from the old to the new withour md5. Optional copy the files on the internal sdcard over before first boot in new rom
Or try from a backup. Have twrp on new phone and copy backup to yr twrp backup folder. Hit restore.

Some folders/partitions are not encrypted

Hi, I have a problem. Some of my folders are not encrypted in twrp file manager. Inside folder /sdcard and /data/data are displaying folder name correctly, which that is the sign of unencrypted folder. But anything inside the folder /data/app are encrypted. I dont know why the my phone only encrypt some part of data. I have previous xiaomi phone that fully encrypted everything in /data and /sdcard partition.
I was unlocking my device, i installed twrp and formatted /data there, then installed only miui global beta rom, no magisk, encryption disabler, or etc. After finished everything and put my data to phone storage, and also set lockscreen pattern, i rebooted the phone once so it will encrypt my data at first reboot. After that I installed twrp again via fastboot because it has been replaced by stock recovery. Went to twrp file manager, and these problem happened.
Do anyone experience this? I need full encryption for my phone privacy and safety.
Note: any current twrp version no one has support encryption, so normally it wont able to read anything inside /data partition.

TWRP install and rebooting to system succesful, but twrp can't read internal storage

Device: SM-A305N KOO (Korea)
I successfully installed twrp via odin on my A30, flashed magisk.zip, and rebooted to system successfully. After that, I flashed an optimization file and rebooted to system (also successful). But I found that the internal storage was encrypted, so I went straight back to TWRP and did Advanced Wipe - change file system to ext2, then ext4. Now My 'Files' app in the system can read the files correctly like in the pic.
But in the TWRP, the file names in the internal storage is still in random characters. How can I fix this?
If twrp only shows "random characters" that's because the internal storage hasn't been decrypted. Twrp should ask for your user password to decrpyt it. Alternatively you could also do
Code:
adb shell
twrp decrypt MyLovelyPassword
EDIT: You need to be booted into twrp to use this. You could also use the terminal which comes within twrp; just leave the `adb shell' part then.
