[RECOVERY][OFFICIAL] TWRP 3.1.1 for Exynos

Disclaimer: Usual disclaimer applies. I've tested this recovery but it might not work due to a different ROM / device / moon phase / etc. Use at your own risk.
Introduction
After working with upstream TWRP developers and fixing some bugs (in TWRP itself and in this port) this device finally has an official port
There were various builds available at different times (some with bugs) but most of them should now be fixed.
Features
Works
backup/restore
installing zips
ADB
MTP
Screen turns off
Basically the rest of this list
format /data
Adoptable storage
Decrypt /data
Doesn't work (please ask if you need this)
Encrypted backup (set password for /data/data)
USB-OTG
Untested
Backup/restore of stock system / data.
Installation instructions
Warning: only use it on the G800F/M/Y, NOT on the G800H! I only tested the G800F, but think G800M/Y will also work. G800H will most likely NOT work, as it is based on a different SoC (Qualcomm).
Download the recovery image from twrp.me. It also includes some installation instructions.
There are more extensive installation instructions over at the LineageOS ROM installation instructions.
I personally prefer using Heimdall, but you can also use Odin. Commands in Download/Odin mode (power off, then press home+Volume-Down+power):
Code:
heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery.img
If you're using the stock ROM, use:
Code:
heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery.img --no-reboot
When you come from the stock ROM you have to make sure the stock ROM doesn't overwrite TWRP: Pull the battery, wait 5 seconds, insert it again, and press home + volume up + power to enter TWRP and replace the stock ROM from there.
If you already have TWRP or LineageOS, it's much easier to install from there, see twrp.me.
Another method is using ADB (from your computer). I used it a lot during testing:
Code:
adb root
adb push twrp-3.1.1-1-kminilte.img /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
Changelog
Code:
2017-07-10:
* fix formatting /data while the partition is encrypted
(device is not encrypted by default)
* add support for adoptable storage
* accept kminiltexx etc. for flashing basebands
2017-06-20:
* ADB
* MTP at the same time as ADB
* Screen turns fully off
* fix for restoring backups made using `adb backup --twrp`

Kernel: https://github.com/TeamWin/android_kernel_samsung_kminilte/tree/cm-14.1
Device: https://github.com/TeamWin/android_device_samsung_kminilte/tree/cm-14.1
This recovery is built using a LineageOS tree. Instructions are similar to the instructions for building LineageOS for the S5 mini. Differences are: you don't need to patch the source (skip that step) and the last step is mka recoveryimage instead of mka bacon - this only builds the recovery resulting in much faster builds. Also see the official build instructions.
Thanks
Other people who have worked on this project:
Team Win, of course, for the recovery itself! In particular bigbiff which has worked with me to make this device official.

OFFICIAL TWRP...I can't believe it
Great work on this one...many thanks.

Thanks a million @ayke ! However, I found some bugs I'd like to submit some bugs I discovered:
- Recovery is not SEANDROID enforcing" message when booting TWRP, didn't cause any trouble for me but still - it was fine in your previous unofficial build
- Some zip files (tested with latest modem flashable zip) report "This package is for kminiltexx devices; this is a kminilte", so it doesn't flash and fails with ERROR:7
I can confirm that decrypting a File-Based encrypted /data partition works, I didn't test the backup tool though.
P.S. Is it possible to add support for adopted storage, that would be awesome!
Nevertheless - thanks for making this device officialy supported!

The current kernel used upstream is somewhat older and hasn't enabled SELinux yet. I don't see why you would want enforcing SELinux in TWRP, though.

I might look into it. I don't use it at the moment but am considering it.
EDIT: I have fixed it, it will be included in the next build.

any chance for g800h support?

Not from me. The G800H is a completely different device. I have a G800F so I can't test it.

Sorry, but the build doesn't fix the wrong device id issue - still throws error " This is for kminiltexx your device is kminilte. Anyway - maybe the next build will fix it[emoji6]

Can you give a link to where you downloaded this zip? Then I can test it myself.

I also get the device error with latest official and 2017-06-25-recovery-fix-ota-asserts.img.
Tried to flash one of Spookcity's kernels, you can find it here (search for "test9" that is what I used lately).
https://github.com/Spookcity/ROMS-G800F/issues/10#issuecomment-301915315
The latest pre-official TWRP 3.1.1-0 works (says kminiltexx).

This file causes problems with the device id: http://pt.tapatalk.com/redirect.php...1_22.05.2017_DRE-flashable.zip&au_id=13587482
It is a TWRP flashable baseband file, hope this helps

@Friedensfurz @Pat750
I couldn't find a (still online) kernel from Spookcity and I'd rather not flash a new modem unless I know why I should do that. So I haven't verified it.
But here's another build you can try. My previous attempt was incomplete.
https://aykevl.nl/download/2017-06-27-recovery-fix-ota-asserts-2.img
On my device I've verified it has a ro.product.device property of kminiltexx.

Yeah,I removed all of my test build links from my google drive, but have a thread on here. I already sent you this though. I will test your new build and see if it helps.
Edit:
Yep,fixed. Good work Ayke!

I'm having a few issues with TWRP 3.1.1 where "wipe / format data" (where you have to key "yes") generates the following error msg (I posted a similar msg in Slim Rom 7 thread):
Code:
Error:unable to wipe /data unknown file system 'auto'
unable to format encryption.
I'm now wondering whether decrypting the data partition from within TWRP will address my format data issue reported above.
Can I ask how you did this? I've dug around the TWRP menus but nothing has jumped out at me (maybe it's something you need to run from the terminal?)
Many thanks!

I have the same problem

Here also this message in unofficial builds, don't tried it, but I think its still present in this version.

I still haven't found a method to decrypt the /data volume from within TWRP (a reference earlier in the thread implied it was possible)..the hope being this would mitigate the "wipe / format data" error:
Code:
Error:unable to wipe /data unknown file system 'auto'
unable to format encryption.
What I did discover was that when reverting to an older version of TWRP (2.8.x) using Odin, " format data" (where you have to type "yes" to proceed) didn't error. I'm not sure whether that cured the issue, but after that I updated TWRP image back to 3.1.1.0 and installed my ROM as normal.
Still looking for a recognised method to wipe encrypted /data volume from within latest stable TWRP if anyone has any experience of that.
EDIT
Another thread suggests (to my untrained eye) that "unknown file system 'auto" may be related to how twrp.fstab is configured.
I'm very much out of my here ( so apologies for the crude suggestion), but could it be that another build of a TWRP image is needed where twrp.fstab is changed to allow "format data" to work, ie substitute "fstype" from "auto" to "ext4" as outlined below :
Code:
...
/data ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p21 length=-16384

I got it to work by formatting/repairing/changing filesystem in TWRP. Just try some combinations, it will work eventually

Yes, I think it's because of the 'auto' in the fstab. I've set it to ext4 in this build (for data and cache):
https://aykevl.nl/download/2017-07-03-recovery.img
This build also contains the previous fixes (adoptable storage, fixing the kminiltexx error).
If it fixes the issue for you, I'll push the change for inclusion in the next official build.
I didn't see any negative consequences of changing the FS type in fstab. Even setting the fstab entry to 'f2fs' mounts /data as usual (as ext4) so I think it's safe.

[RECOVERY] [TREBLE] [RETIRED] TWRP with Tissot Manager (Treble & Dual boot support)

RETIRED! No longer supported or being developed. @Giovix92 is now the lead dev, please use his TWRP for full compatibility with modern kernels/ROM's - https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/development/recovery-twrp-3-3-1-0-tissot-manager-t3976117
Old thread below:
-----------------------------------
About
This is a TWRP Installer ZIP and bootable IMG with extra capability such as Treble-izing, Dual boot repartitioning and other power-user tools with integrated Aroma Installer-powered GUI screens that I call Tissot Manager.
HIGHLY recommended reading and guide for everyone new to Treble - [TREBLE][GUIDE] From Stock to Treble - everything you need to know!. It also has some general protips hidden within there, for example the seamless/slot system interactions and nuances, so it's worth reading for anyone who wants to be a master of the Android flashing domain
Features:
TWRP fully Treble-ready with dual-boot ROM patcher;
Maintained with latest TWRP version;
Fully compatible with non-Treble devices - can be used as normal without Treble partitioning;
USB-OTG fixed
Has 'TWRP survival' function for automatically re-installing TWRP recovery when installing ROMs and kernels;
Option to install a payload ROM in the current slot, rather than the inactive one;
Option to ignore Payload<>Recovery certificate failures (fix for newer LOS-based ROMs);
Adds a "Tissot Manager" Aroma GUI to TWRP Advanced Menu (bottom-right button), which is the tool used to repartition the device for Treble and Dual boot, as well as some other nifty stuff:
Has the option to shrink System OR Userdata to create Vendor partitions. All relevant partitions will be resized and formatted in one go.
If you shrink System, you will keep max size Userdata - however it will be incompatible with non-Treble ROM's (they will crash on installing with Error 28 due to System being too small). It will Erase system, requiring you to reinstall a ROM or restore a ROM backup.
If you shrink Userdata, it will ERASE DATA AND INTERNAL STORAGE COMPLETELY - but your device will stay compatible with all existing non-Treble ROM's
Dual boot requires Userdata shrink and works by splitting into userdata_a and userdata_b. The partition split size is customizable during the repartition process.
Adds a "Patches" section with the following current options:
Patch the current Vendor for dual-boot capability (only required if automatic patching wasn't possible). See the 'About Dual-boot' section below for more information.
Enable an insecure ADBD on boot for the current slot (i.e. enable debugging and remove authentication requirement). Useful for ROM hackers/porters.
Patch the current slot to enable/disable forced userdata encryption
All of this info is detailed inside the Tissot Manager GUI.
See screenshots in post 2.
Instructions
Optionally boot the boot-recovery.img to get a temporary TWRP if you don't have it installed, unzipped from TWRP-boot.img-3.2.1-with-Tissot-Manager-x.x.zip:
Code:
fastboot boot boot-recovery.img
Warning - do not EVER flash this img - hotboot it only.
Flash the TWRP Installer. Any slot, any ROM, any existing Recovery - it doesn't matter - it will be installed to both slot kernels.
Reboot Recovery
Optional - Use the "Advanced > Tissot Manager" option for repartition options and other advanced ROM patches (Aroma Installer powered GUI - a fully guided and interactive process).
If you opted to repartition for Treble, you are ready to flash a Treble ROM/Vendor pack. Reminder - check out my full guide for learning and instructions on all things Treble.
About TWRP survival
TWRP survival is a simple hook that detects if a boot.img will be installed and restores TWRP after it's flashed. This only works if you have booted TWRP with Tissot Manager 2.0 from a real recovery boot - NOT from a recovery 'hot boot' (fastboot boot method).
You will see in the install log if a TWRP survival attempt is successful in the flash text output.
Automatic TWRP survival works when:
Flashing a ROM ZIP (or AIO) with TWRP
Flashing a boot.img in TWRP "Install Image" mode
Automatic TWRP survival does NOT work when:
Flashing a boot.img via fastboot
Restoring boot in a TWRP backup
Any other way of flashing a boot.img
In these cases, be sure the use the TWRP Installer immediately after flashing or restoring a backup - otherwise you may get the device into a confused state (especially if you restore a non-TWRP boot then try to install an AIO ROM without installing a new TWRP first).
About Dual-boot
Dual-boot on this device is relatively simple. As you know we have Slots - boot_a and _b, system_a and _b and vendor_a and _b (for Treble). This repartition splits userdata into userdata_a and _b too. You can simply change your Slot in TWRP reboot menu to change which ROM to boot.
This is designed for developers and testers - NOT for daily use. There are some significant issues with dual boot systems:
Any kind of security lock (PIN, fingerprint, etc.) set on one ROM will cause the other ROM to believe it has security too, but constantly fail with unlocking. This is reportedly because security info is stored on persist, which is shared between each slot (and not compatible with differing ROM's).
Because Userdata is split, so is Internal Storage. In TWRP, when changing slots, the MTP will remain mounted to the old slot - it must be manually disabled and renabled (Mounts menu) to update to the new slot.
I will not fix these issues - dual-boot is not designed to be for general/daily use and there may be more minor issues that I don't know about. It's intended for developers only.
In order for a ROM to be dual-boot compatible, the fstab file (information given to Android about partitions to mount) needs a small modification. This TWRP can try to do this patching automatically when you install a ROM, or it can be done manually in Tissot Manager's Patches menu (as well as single-boot patch to e.g. revert a ROM backup from a dual-boot state).
You will see in the install log if a dual-boot patch attempt is successful in the flash text output.
Automatic dual-boot patch occurs only if necessary when:
Flashing an AIO Treble ROM ZIP with TWRP
Flashing a vendor.img in TWRP "Install Image" mode
Automatic dual-boot patch does NOT work when:
Flashing a vendor.img via fastboot
Restoring vendor in a TWRP backup
Any other way of flashing a vendor
In any of these cases, you can manually patch Vendor for Dual Boot in Tissot Manager's Patches menu. You can also remove dualboot support the same way. It will detect the dualboot state of the current Vendor slot and present the available option. If you find that it doesn't actually change after patching, the Vendor is incompatible (please report it to me). RR AIO Vendor is tested OK.

FAQ
Q) After I flash TWRP, I get kicked into a Recovery loop when trying to boot the ROM!
A) This is probably because you have a kernel that does not disable dm-verity. To fix this, flash Magisk. The void kernel included in RR AIO does not have this problem and can therefore be safely used without Magisk (for e.g. GSI compatibility).
Q) After I flash TWRP, I get kicked into fastboot when trying to boot the ROM!
A) Your kernel is not Treble-compatible.
Q) How do I update TWRP?
A) Just flash the ZIP installer again, then Reboot Recovery. Note that this will erase Magisk on BOTH slots if you have it installed to either, requiring you to reflash it to one/both slots. See my Treble guide FAQ section for more info on Magisk interaction.
Q) My PC can't see the MTP (storage) device from TWRP!
A) For dualboot compatibility, MTP is automatically disabled at various points. Just enable it manually in the Mounts menu to get access.
Q) If I shrink Userdata for Treble, will stock and OTA work?
A) I have heard varying results on this. It does for some, not for others. Please assume that this will NOT work. It will definitely not work if you have shrunk system.
Q) Can I restore a non-Treble TWRP backup after I repartition for Treble? And the other way around?
A) Yes! In fact, this is the easiest way for...
...using stock ROM on Treble repartition (requires Userdata shrink ONLY). May also require a custom kernel with dm-verity disabled (see Questions above regarding fastboot kick and recovery loop).
...using a non-treble ROM if you shrunk System instead of Userdata since you cannot install non-Treble ROM ZIPs with a shrunk System (see next Q)
Q) I get some Error 28 when trying to install a ROM when repartitioned
A) You have shrunk System and are trying to install a non-Treble ROM. This is not possible AT ALL because the ROM ZIP expects a stock-size System. Use Userdata shrink mode instead if you want to be able to use non-Treble ROM's easily.
Q) I see "Failed to mount '/system' (Device or resource busy)" red error in TWRP after flashing a ROM
A) You can safely ignore it. You just need to reboot recovery before you can flash anything else (like Gapps) to this ROM.

Good job! :good:

Nice work!
Did you tested treble roms with this? Aex now have treble support

Omg, you are the best man. @mohancm also huge thanks to u man, great devs in our XDA.

I have never seen this kind of detailed, kind guide in XDA. You guys are awesome! Thanks for all this work!
One question : If I choose to shrink /userdata instead of /system,
1. Will I be able to flash stock rom by using MiFlash?
2. If I can, will I be able to get OTA and install them w/o issues?
3. Can I restore a TWRP backup that was made before repartitioning?(because of data on /data)
I think lots of people will be wondering about #3. If you think so too, then please add it in OP!
Thanks to all of you devs again!

This is just the repartition part, one step of Treble. You still need a Vendor pack. But yes, this enables Treble ROMs and the ROMs require repartition.

1. If you do, it will wipe partition map back to stock. So you will need to repartition with Treble Manager TWRP again. But you can make a backup of stock ROM in TWRP and just restore it after the repartition. It should work.
2. Don't know. Needs testing.
3. Yes! I forgot to add this to the FAQ.

Has this tpwr f2fs support and working?
Since Los support It i would like ti have

@CosmicDan
Thank you so much for your effort. I'm currently on stock and want to retain stock compatibility, so I'm going to wait until this becomes more polished before trying. I understand that Treble is not meant to be compatible with stock, so I realize my question might be out of place. Still, my question is:
Will you also release the .img file for Treble TWRP for those of us who don't want a permanent custom recovery?

It's indeed not intended to be compatible with stock ROM, but your mileage may vary, and as @CosmicDan said, it might work good enough or it won't. You can only try to see the results yourself.
This whole Treble thing is meant mainly for custom ROMS, since stock will never be Treble compatible (still, anything could happen)

I've just updated the TWRP with Treble Manager to 1.1 which fixed a semi-important bug.
Also, I've released a guide for those who find the Treble conversion/install process confusing - check it out. If you can, keep TWRP and Treble Manager specific questions in this thread, but ask your general questions and help over there - I will update the guide as I get feedback

FAQ
Q) If I shrink Userdata for Treble, will stock and OTA work?
A) Untested. Please report your results. But Treble is really not about Stock, you will likely encounter more problems down the line or it may turn out to be completely incompatible.
Q) Can I restore a non-Treble TWRP backup after I repartition for Treble? And the other way around?
A) Yes! In fact, this is the easiest/only way for...
...using stock ROM on Treble repartition (requires Userdata shrink ONLY). May also require a custom kernel with dm-verity disabled (untested - if you get bootloop when using stock, it means you do) or Magisk (also untested, may still get bootloop).
...using a non-treble ROM if you shrunk System instead of Userdata since you cannot install non-Treble ZIP's on ROM's with a shrunk Userdata (see next Q)
Q) I get some Error 28 when trying to install a ROM when repartitioned
A) You have shrunk System and are trying to install a non-Treble ROM. This is not possible AT ALL because the ROM ZIP expects a stock-size System. Use Userdata shrink mode instead if you want to be able to use non-Treble ROM's easily.
Q) I see "Unable to mount '/vendor' (Invalid argument)" red error in this TWRP
A) You can safely ignore it. It just means you have not repartitioned your device for Treble yet, so it can't mount the /vendor image.

Ay!
Have just finished testing about OTA on stock after Treblizing!
Result?!?
OTA works perfectly on stock after shrinking data to Treblize! Hurrah! ???
Process I followed:
1) Treblize by shrinking data
2) This is important: flash stock ROM in fastboot using MiFlash! When flashing for the first time, select "clean all and lock"! No other standard options working! I couldn't even boot stock using other options!
I've tested by fastboot flashing April build and then updating it to May OTA!
*** On a note: clean all will erase everything on your phone including your personal data!
If you use "save user data" then stock can't even boot! This may caused by the encryption!
BTW, after everything I just restored my non-Treble RR backup and everything works perfect! Just Treble Check app can't check that it's Treblized!
But don't worry! Treble partition table still remains! Fastboot flash can't touch that and can't recognize that it actually exists! Which to me is a good thing!
@CosmicDan, give me a thanks buddy! I deserve this!

There is a problem with decrypting devices formatted with may ASB, I see about it. You could go f2fs or setup rom on April build and upgrade to new one for now.
Edit:// should be fixed here: https://github.com/xiaomi-msm8998/twrp_device_xiaomi_sagit/releases/tag/3.3.1

I am currently on LineageOS 15 (8.1), and using TWRP 3.2.3. Everything works OK.
But if I try to boot into latest 3.3.1 (both with SAR and without) it doesn't request pattern for decrypting data, and I can't figure out how to force it to.
Without decrypt it shows /sdcard and /data/data as garbage...

Hi @NeoArian, it seems that at least your latest TWRP-sar version has issues with mounting external usb storages: at least my sandisk 64GB key that I always used to save nandroids to is not detected, thus I have to rely on internal memory to save nandroids, fw, and user data.
Using TWRP version 3.2.3-sagit-shev.img I have no issues (but unfortunately no support for your lineageos unofficial builds if I'm not mistaken).
Am I doing something wrong? Do you have any suggestions?

I thought it was some codes in twrp that cause the problem.
If I use 3.3.1.0 everything works fine. but it won't decrypt my data even I had no pattern for lock screen with 3.3.1.2.

Hi, I'm running twrp 3.3.1-20191204 with your Lineage 17 very happily thanks!
For the last couple of lineage installs though (2019-12-24 and 2020-01-08) I'm getting a failure in twrp when running a backup, on data partition specifically:
createTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255
recovery.log is far more helpful:
Code:

Error creating backup.
I:ERROR tarList for thread ID 0
Error creating backup.
There's an (empty) folder '/data/per_boot' which seems to be breaking the backup process. I'm not sure if it's lineage itself or one of my apps creating this dir, but if I manually delete it the backup works... then it gets recreated next boot.
A somewhat minor issue, in case it's either easy enough to fix and/or other's run into the same problem!

I assume this twrp version use for flashing gsi. Am I correct?

-Userdata decryption is not working. You can flash multi disabler (check this before flashing) to disable encryption or use an external SD or USB OTG for putting ZIPs and IMGs on it in order to flash them
- Data backup is not working due to device encryption
How to Install
0. READ F.A.Q section first here
1. Unlock your bootloader
2. Boot to Odin mode
3. Check AP box and select TWRP tar file
4. Hit start
5. Reboot to TWRP and flash multi disabler if you want (check this before flashing it)
6. Have fun

TWRP 3.5.1_10 - Beta 2
Multi Disabler
Sources
TWRP device tree
Kernel source

Change Log:
Beta 2 - 24th of March 2021
- Update to latest kernel 4.14.190
- Fix MTP on the latest kernel
- Clean up dynamic partitions
- Released kernel 4.14.190 source
Beta 1 - 20th of March 2021
- Initial Release

F.A.Q:
What is data encryption and why doesn't it work on TWRP?
Samsung M51 uses file-based encryption that encrypts the user data partition.
By default, TWRP can't decrypt user data partition, which makes it impossible for us to access the internal device storage from TWRP or recovery MTP, which means you can't put ROM files on your internal phone storage and flash them from there.
What is Multi disabler and how does it affect your phone?
- Multi disabler disables and removes the encryption on the data partition, which makes it possible for you to access your internal storage from TWRP or recovery MTP. thus, making it possible for you to flash files from internal storage.
- Removing the encryption on your device's internal storage makes it possible for you to access your files from recovery directly, which makes it possible for anyone to access your private files without your permission from recovery.
- All of the above means that your device will be less secure. So if you care about device encryption then don't flash the multi disabler and use a USB OTG or a sdcard to flash ROMs, which I recommend. Otherwise, flash the multi disabler at your own risk!!!
- FLASHINF MULTI DISABLER REQUIRES PERFORMING A FULL DATA WIPE WHICH MEANS YOU WILL LOSE YOUR DATA. SO BACKUP YOUR DATA BEFORE FLASHING IT.
My device keeps rebooting to recovery after flashing TWRP, why?
Most probably you will need to wipe your data partition and flash multidisabler
Data backup is not working even after flashing multidisabller, why?
Current multidisabler still can't fully disable FBE encryption, which means that TWRP can't read data partition at all, hence creating backups will always fail.

Reserved just in case

Thank you so much for your efforts,
Does backup, restore, work smoothly in this version of twrp? Does it fully restore after making a backup? Or are there still mistakes?
In Twrp 3.4.0 Data backup is not loading. Nonoperating. But the system is loading.
Oh, thank you, thank you.

Currently I have no working ROM so I can't test back and restore functionality. But backing data should be working.. don't take that for granted tho..
It would be great if you can test that and report if it's working or not, or wait until I or someone else test that.

thank you for your efforts. i installed this twrp and flashed mutlidisabler. also formatted data before reboot. Unfortunately twrp does not allow to create backups. Cannot unmount system partition etc...Your android 10 TWRP version is creating and restoring backups allright. So for now have to continue using android 10!

prerooting won't solve encryption issues. Maybe when TWRP can be build using android 11, we can fix encryption issues or at least partially fix it.

Nope, but you may need to install multidisabler to prevent the phone from reverting back to stock recovery. Don't formate the data after flashing Multidisabler and see if the phone boots or not

Never mind. Got it with fastboot. But backup fails and that's my reason for wanting TWRP.

I didn't rename it, so that's why it didn't work with Odin. But as I said, I managed to flash it with fastboot anyway. But it still won't backup, probably because data is encrypted.

Why use TWRP when you have Lineage Recovery? Lineage Recovery is better.

Backup option work?

Plzz make for LTE variant

Just made a version for the LTE variant (modified prop.default).
Issues I've found:
Encrypted data partition can't be mounted.
LineageOS fails to install ota updates, because update zip is stored in data partition.
Backup option is not working correctly unless data are decrypted.
Mind the gapps installer fails because it can't mount system_ext partition.
Tested on my SM-P615.

#3 I would much prefer to have backup than encrypted data, if that were an option. Is there a way to keep LOS from re-encrypting data? I know that in earlier versions, once you formatted the data partition, it didn't get encrypted again unless you flashed a stock ROM. Or is this a GSI thing?

To prevent lineageos from re-encrypt data open /vendor/etc/fstab.exynos9611 in an text editor, find a line which starts with "/dev/block/platform/13520000.ufs/by-name/userdata" and remove
fileencryption=aes-256-xts parameter (don't forget to remove also the comma!).
WARNING: That should be done after wiping. The instructions are device specific!

Let me see if I have the steps right. I already have LOS up and running. I flash TWRP and boot to it. Then format the data partition to get rid of encryption. Then edit as per the above and reboot. Is that right?

This is why Linux4 abandoned TWRP for the platform. TWRP seems so problematic! Everyone should switch back to Lineage Recovery. Data is encrypted for good reason on the devices. You don't need a backup option in recovery plus why use TWRP when you can use an official looking recovery? OTA updates on LOS Recovery aren't hideous with logs and it looks official and fits with Lineage! Use Lineage Recovery, NOT this crap excuse of a recovery. Lineage Recovery can be found on the official lineage website for the official version of 19.1 and the unofficial version for unofficial 19.1 can be found at lineage.linux4.de

I guess you neglected to read the post that tells you how to keep LOS from re-encrypting the data partition. I DON'T WANT IT ENCRYPTED!! I have been using Android devices for close to a decade without encryption and have NEVER had a problem. I have a belt. I don't need suspenders too. (And LOS when it was Cyanogenmod.)

Due to the issues with TWRP, Linux4 might block your recovery from being able to install LOS.
