I have an app backup that I was able to restore with "adb restore" on my note 10 pro when it was running miui but I can't restore it with Arrow 11 and crDroid 7
adb shell works
restoring the app on another device with factory rom works.
any ideas?

Hi all, I thought I understood rooting etc. when had my Samsung S5, HTC Desire etc. but a bit stumped here.
I have a rooted (rootgenius) Ascend P7 (Kernel - 3.0.8-00485-ge6e6a9b, EMUI 3.0) that I am happy with. Looking to use Xposed Installer to make some tweaks but cannot seem to backup beforehand...
I've backed up all apps in Titanium Backup. When I go to reboot into recovery (ROM manager) I get the EMUI screen with 3 options (Reboot System Now, Wipe data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache Partition). ROM manager also allows me to backup, and says that there is a current backup (sdcard/TWRP/backup) but this is blank in a file explorer and when I click on it on the phone, it takes me to the same EMUI screen.
How do I install CWM or TWRP so I see them in recovery and can backup the system in a way that is restorable (guessing that Titanium Backup isn't that useful if stuck in bootloop for example).
Thanks
Any ideas on this as I would love to start using XposedInstaller etc. but only with this backup, many thanks.
Have you tried this yet?

Hello guys, i've tried to install custom rom for honor 9 lite but error 7 keeps appearing(tried lineage and havoc) I've made backup before formatting data. At this moment i have no OS installed, twrp restore sees backup but there is nothing below "select partitions to restore" please guys help me :crying:
I've fixed issue with no partition visible, but after trying to backup, some partitions return error 255, device keeps bootlooping after backuping every other partitions that were possible to backup. I tried downloading firmware to use dload method but im not sure what version should i download. When i've downloaded Build: LLDL31C432B131 800131 it comes with Software install failed
I want to do a backup of my android before restoring OOS on the phone (for a test). Was planing to use titanium backup but it seems like the app isn't very good anymore (the reviews are really bad now). Any other ideas? ADB didn't really create that a good backup and I lost WhatsApp and other stuff.
Current setup: lineage 17.1, twerp (latest version) and magisk 20.4.
Just realised I can use twrp for this ??

Two options:
1. Use TB to backup and restore app data and non-bundled/not split apks. Use SAI https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aefyr.sai to backup/restore bundled/split apks.
2. Use Migrate https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...stom-rom-migration-tool-t3862763/post78060823

I actually don't understand option one but two sounds just the ticket. Thank you.

If you have TWRP, then indeed, adb backup --twrp data should be your friend.
However, extracting TWRP backups on your computer is not that trivial. To do that you need twrpabx, specifically prudy's fixed version. On a Linux computer, it is quick and easy to compile. I haven't tried on Windows.
Else, TWRP backups can only be restored on the same phone (or maybe also on another phone of the same model)

That should be then fine. I just want to try a thing on OOS so no switching of phones intended.
ADB backup I don't think restored the apps data when I tried it which was the main reason for doing the backup

When you do adb backup --trwp you can add which partitions you want to have backup up:
adb backup --trwp data system boot recovery (haven't checked the names, but data and system should be the most important ones)
Just be mindful that when you do an adb backup --twrp, the backup does not include Internal Files, so make sure to back them up separately or not to wipe them in the first place. I would recommend that after backing up your precious data, you go to "advanced wipe" and there select system, data, cache and dalvik cache. After that, happy flashing..

I'm doing this with very basic understanding of what I'm doing/being recommended to do. Is adb backup --twrp a command or twice different things as in 'adb backup' to computer and twrp is done on the phone?
My plan is to copy the important data like audio files and photos to my laptop, then use use migrate to make a copy plus twrp backup. I should be fine after that I think.
I'm just hoping my root and magisk doesn't go when I reinstal OOS 9.0.6 as I want to try to edit my system to see if I can force vowife to work.

That would be a command you have to run in a command line window on your computer. Again, after the --twrp parameter, you can pass the names of the partitions you want to have backed up, which would probably be data, system, recovery and boot.
First, of course, you have to install adb, if you haven't already. But if that's too complicated, it might be easier to make a full backup in TWRP and then copy it over to your computer. adb backup --twrp basically saves a step and you don't have to have sufficient space on your phone for a full backup

That's always a good idea, even though wiping data in TWRP should not touch your internal files.

I don't know, I never used it. I'm happy with LineageOS. I guess you can re-flash Magisk trough twrp and then in your running system, you can re-install the MagiskManager apk. But I haven't tried it.
Hi,
We have MIUI based on A12,
Some of You want to make NAND backup on A11, but always data backup make error like: fork, error 255 etc.. There is nice way to fix it.
Instuction below to make NAND backup correctly:
1) On miui setting remove second space, remove second user
2) boot into twrp
3) run script: RMDAD_v0.0.1.zip
4) go to console on TWRP, write on it: rm /data/extm -Rf
5) make succefully backup (data partition)
To restore from A12 to A11:
1) flash xioami eu fastboot A11 rom with format https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=2188818919693786473
2) fully boot
3) go to twrp, flash xiaomi eu new rom (stable or beta what U use before)
4) IMPORTANT!!!!! fully boot, set password - screenlock!
5) go to twrp, copy your TWRP backup to phone from computer, restore it
6) boot fully
7) reboot again
8) everythin is ok (miui backup data partition dont has icos size and font size set etc, all apps etc come back)

Have a nice day
Hello and thank you for this guide. Just a quick question : when you say "set password - screenlock!", should it be the same as before, or not necessarily ?
And also : why did you not put the "rm /data/extm -Rf" in the RMDAD script ?
I've been trying for several days now to backup my currently running MIUI to try something different and be able to get back quickly to something stable, but no luck for now...
I could addtrur, password whatever
Sorry I didn't cet you here...
Hello, I tried your solution, my backup was a bit long but successful, but the restore was a failure.
In fact on the first boot after restore, I always stay on the Mi logo and black screen with the dots at the bottom...
I'm on Redmi Note 10 Pro on MIUI 13 (Android 12) and I only restore data partition.
Can you help ?
I would like to keep everything else the same on my phone.
- I don't know if that means I'll have to backup/reinstall everything, if that happens automatically, or what.
- I have the following installed: TWRP 3.4.0.0, Titanium Backup Pro, Frija, Odin, ADB (?)
I currently have "ALEXNDR.N960FXXU6FTJ5" that I got here (based on Android 10)
I think it was from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ase-v7-4-dex-gear-encryption-support.3847061/
If I want to follow those instructions, should I:
1) do a complete TWRP backup *first*?
2) follow the instructions to update the ROM
3) then restore from Titanium Backup?
As I understand it, the TWRP backup is *ONLY* if I want to restore the entire "disk image" and revert back to the ROM I have now, right?
You can use TWRP restore only if you mess something while flashing kernels, magisk modules, Xposed modules, etc .. it is also useful in your first OEM unlock to preserve vendor and ODM images so that you won't have to flash stock ROM again if something go wrong.
If you are asking about restoring apps, SMS and call logs, I highly recommend swift backup. Not for settings though. Personally, I stopped using titanium backup years ago since it is deprecated and last update was in 2019.
