So I have the Nexus 6P rooted and unlocked. For some reason when I try to access files on my phone I can't find them via TWRP such as downloads to flash something. I went to advance and DATA cannot be checked. What should I do in order to resolve this so I can flash files from data?

I figured it out, I needed two things to update my TWRP to 2.8.7.2 so it can allow encrypting and also Banks Gapps which works best in case someone needs help in the future.

Does anybody know where the OTA file is being saved in our phone?
I'm downloading the file now but I won't be installing it yet until I put back my stock recovery.
Nevermind. I already found the location. If anyone wants to know, it can be found in data/data/com.zte.zdm/files
Can you confirm the location. I am on 7.1.1 and trying to save the latest OTA (on A2017G). Under /data, I only have a mail directory and nothing else.

They don't use the newest version magisk. Try pulling the zip from their room that contains magisk and flash it. I've tried and had no luck. It would cause the phone to bootloop.

Did you use flashfire or something like that to flash stock recovery? I made a backup in TWRP thought about trying to restore stock recovery with that. I have did it on other phones just not this one.

Usually I just use the backup boot and recovery I have when I installed twrp using tenfar's tool. I flash my backup images in twrp. Then, i use adb sideload to upgrade rather than sd method.

yes, you can still receive and download the OTA like I how figured out the location.
However, you can't update using the downloaded OTA file unless you revert your boot and recovery partitions to stock.

Are you using root explorer? I think you need to download the ota update first but don't install.
Also, are trying to update to nougat? Here's the latest b15 rom on the official site.

OK, finally got it. Thank you so much.
So this week i hadn't time enough to install the august update since my phone is rooted so i decided to do it now. What i did before trying to download the update :
1.Deleted all magisk modules that i had then rebooted
2.Unistalled magisk using restore image then rebooted
3.Went to sys update downloaded and it says installation failed
What do to? I'm not rooted now and i don't have twrp installed.
PS. don't want to install it via fastboot/miflash
Follow this guide in future. https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md#ota-installation-tips
To fix your problem now, find a stock boot image for your update version you are currently on and flash it.

If you don't want to use Miflash (Why ?) you can boot temporary TWRP and flash .zip here:

Same here, can't install set Ota, even after remove magisk.
Other thing, cell won't show screen to put pin to boot, previous pin of sim so I think encryption is disable!? Any idea?
Is it possible to use the official TWRP app to install on the 6T? Thanks in advance to anyone nice enough to answer ?

More than likely. A lot of people reported that after flashing Magisk via the zip in TWRP, the phone doesn't boot until you flash Magisk. I as well encountered this issue. If you flash TWRP and reboot recovery and then reboot to system you'll be stuck with a recovery loop until you flash Magisk. Hope this helps.
I'm unlocked, rooted & encrypted. I'm on 9.0.1. I updated TWRP through TWRP. Now it's not asking for password to decrypt. Seems like I had this problem before, but can't remember how I fixed it. Thanks for any help.

That's what I'm trying to figure out. If I could see my files in TWRP, I would reinstall previous version or a different one to see if that would fix it.
Do I have to use ADB on a computer & lose my data? Or Sideload? Did it before, but can't recall.

You won't loose any data by flashing twrp. Just flash the recommended codeworkx twrp with your current twrp by either fastboot or USB otg(USB Stick).

Installed codeworkx TWRP, it worked. Thanks for your help.
Device - SM-A205FN.
Firmware - A205FNXXSACVB1.
Custom ROM - AospExtended-v9.0-a20-UNOFFICIAL-20220225-2212.
TWRP version - 3.6.1_9-0 [official].
I can’t install this ROM in any way, because when flashing into TWRP, error 1 pops up. I tried to clear various partitions and also deleted the first two lines of the updater-script file.

Should I try to lock and then unlock the bootloader back? I heard it clears partitions completely. By the way, in the TWRP tar-archive, not only custom recovery.img, but also custom vbmeta.img to bypass protection. Could this be causing error 1?
