Hi,
I have a Redmi Note 10 Pro (Indian Version) with latest MIUI 12.5 installed and running good. I debloated my system via adb tool and is ok, except for GPay not getting uninstalled. Also I want to install Sony Music as System App (As I used to do in Redmi Note 4). So in order to do the same I installed Orange Fox Recovery and tried to delete Gpay from /Product/app via OFox File manager, But failed. Also I tried to Push Sony Music App to system via OFox File manager and that too failed. I used to do this in my all old devices.
Now when I searched, I found about this decryption problem. But I can access and delete/move files in internal storage via OFox file manager. Also I tried TWRP and the result was same. Then I flashed OFox in TWRP and flashing worked successfully and device recovery is now OFox. Also during stating of OFox, it asks for decryption and on entering my PIN, it shows User 0 successfully decrypted but user 999 decryption failed. I tried by removing the pin, yet failed again
So what might be the problem that is stopping me from deleting/pushing app into the system? Anyone can help pls.....

I failed similar times to root my phone with twrp 3.2.xx and 3.1.xx. I used Odin 3 v3.13.1.
Any ideas or thread links for the young padawan?
I appreciate your advice masters :good:
Using Odin Flash TWRP latest from the note 8 TWRP thread here on XDA, one on their site is not latest.
Install magisk manager app from play store.
Download magisk from the app.
Reboot to TWRP and flash the magisk file just downloaded.
Reboot and check magisk manager for root and hide.
Should be good.
Nope. Not working and still ends in a bootloop and it's unable to mount the internal storage.
Something went wrong, so.. my phone is unable to boot the system after that!
The issue is the version of TWRP and Oreo, its not yet compatible on this device, it needs porting over
If you want MAGISK you need to do it all in one hit.
Flash TWRP
Select Read Only Option.
Format Data
Reboot Recovery
Flash the DM Verify Encrypt file
Reboot Recovery, You could be able to flash files wihtout a Data mount error.
Now flash the files you want, i..e MAGISK
Once you have booted the ROM and return back to TWRP you are unable to mount Data.
This can cause various issue when flashing files
Funny you.. How can I format if the internal storage isn't able to mount?
"Select Read Only Option.
Format Data" <-- seems like a contradiction to format a missing
partition.
I think we need to wait until someone will port the twrp for Oreo. cheerio!
Because it needs to be done when you first flash it.
Once you have flash Oreo, Then TWRP, You boot into TWRP and format. You then Flash the DM Verify.
Data is accessible, its empty but accessible, Flashing any files like MAGISK work without any errors.
I have it all working on mine without any issues, I do know if i need to flash any additional files it wont work properly due to Data no longer mountable.
There is a updated version of TWRP that fixes this, but its not been ported over.
I am trying to install TWRP and root my Mi Mix. I have followed the steps below without encountering any error messages.
1. Go into fastboot
2. Flash TWRP recovery
3. Boot into recovery.
But at the end when I boot into recovery I see Mi Recovery 3.0 instead of TWRP. Am I missing anything? My device is unlocked. I am currently running MiUI 9.6.1 Global stable Android 8.0

Never mind I solved the problem by booting from the pc. But I have a new problem. Two problems really. First of all I can't seem to get the data partition backed up. I get the error unable to mount *\data *. Secondly I cannot install magisk.zip. I cannot find the file in twrp though it is in main storage in the device. Do I need to copy it to any specific location for the twrp to use it?
Same like your firs post. But i not try instal magisk. I using SU. Now not root and not cusum recovery

You can install it using a usb stick or via sideload.
You cant backup because the twrp's dont let you enter the password for the encryption on the device thus leaving it encrypted.
If u dont want to delete everything then use sideload for the Magisk installer, if u dont mind then u can go ahead and format data and the encryption will be gone untill you go back to system, then the device will encrypt the data again.

I tried to install magisk using sideload enabled but still got error unable to mount storage at the end so I deleted data. And then I was able to install magisk without error. However, when I check root status with root checker it says root was not properly installed. When I went back to twrp I was presented with a screen to enter password to mount I guess the storage or partition. Does this mean that ruth has been installed even though root checker says its not.? Secondly which password is being requested because when I entered my screen unlock password it says password failed. Is it asking for the mi account password or with other password? Thanks for your assistance.
Hi, the only thing that worked for me is to install right after the rom the encryption disabler and you'll be able to use trwp. Just follow the steps in the link below. last thing, when you'll make an update you'll loose again the trwp access.

Thanks for your reply. One question, though. Would this then allow you to backup data using twrp?

Yes you can make a backup, but in case of update you'll loose the access on your files in trwp.
A couple things :
1. You can't install magisk if your data partition is encrypted, because magisk needs to put the file in the data partition. so you need to disable the encrypt first, and then you can install magisk.
2. If your data partition is encrypted, don't bother to backup from twrp. Boot to system, connect to pc, and backup using regular way (copy and paste files).
3. Backup your data before you do any encrypt/decrypt process.
I've done all partitions backup and then Restore by TWRP.
My TWRP version is: 3.1.0-3
Backup was created two months ago.
After Restore I have some problems with system behavior:
I can not run Settings
App "Files" is not visible and I can't run this app.
I've tried restore few times also with positive md5 verification and its still the same.
Can someone tell me what is wrong? What I suposed to do to have my phone working please.?
Edit:
I've solved an issue with File Manager App by installing slightly newer version from ApkMirror site
When i run Settings App it shows up for 0.5sek and then close.
I've tried to:
Clear data of Settings App (acces to this by Root Uninstaller)
Wipe Dalvik Cache partition
Wipe Cache partitnion.
Camera app and every app that need access to camera (mirror, compass) doesn't work also...
Edit. Problem is solved by flashing new software (same version) via dload method
I disovered propable cause in TWRP backup mechanism:
TWRP 3.1.1-0
* bump up TWRP version to 3.1.1
* fix backup of /version
* use device specific and updated prebuilts (+kernel)
* remove the ability to flash images to ext4 mounted partitions
TWRP 3.1.0-3
* kernel updated for proper loop support
* magisk can now be installed and is supported by every rom running b380+ kernel (tested on b383)
* native_package.xml has been changed to device specific version
Hi guys,
I'll try to be short..
After a while, I whipped MIUI and Installed Pixel Experience Go on Redmi 4x. Everything was fine, until I tried to install Adaway and it showed me on Magisk Manager that the phone was not root (It was before that). I tried to install the new version 19 over 18.1, but it showed error on TWRP that there was an error installing the zip, because system was not mounted.
I tried to uninstall Magisk with the zip provided in github, and again some error occurred. Then I cleared cache and dalvick and rebooted, but I'm stuck on MI logo. I'm able to access TWRP and see all my files, but cannot boot into the system.
My mistake I did not make recovery or backup and now all my settings and apps (banking, pictures and so on) are about to be whipped.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Last usable version is 24.1 on Samsung Galaxy Note 3 ( hlte ) using custom-rom [ROM][10.0.0_r46] SuperiorOS - Phoenix [FINAL][OFFICIAL][HLTE/CHN/KOR/TMO]
Because ver 24.3 available, i tried to update from working 24.1
used flashing by twrp 3.6.6.1 screen told me; unable to mount /system as cause to be unable to flash.
as described i renamed the magisk-v24.3.apk to.zip and tried to flash.
created system partition new as ext4, flashed os, flashed google apps nano, but was unable to flash magisk-24.3
tried magisk-24.2 same way, fails also
tried magisk-24.1 works fine as expected.
So i'm unable to flash magisk-24.2 or later yet.
Any Ideas?
Peter
PS: extract .zip on windows 10 works fine, repackaging using 7zip using the older files fails also to flash
Edit: log file attached from trying to update by app and screenshot of app
Tried [ROM][OFFICIAL][11] LineageOS 18.1 for Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (hlte*), same bug as before.
Made full wipe during install and restored apps from google play.
Magisk 24.1 works fine, but unable to install 24.2 and 24.3.
