Is it Possible To Migrate From Cm To Pac-Rom Without Erasing Data?
Backup your /data partition to SD-Card in TWRP.
Remove the SD-Card.
Then you're safe to make a full wipe without accidentaly formatting your SD-Card.

How do I do this?
If you have a custom recovery boot into it then wipe everything from there
I'm currently on Bootleggers ROM, unfortunately its encrypted. For the decryption, should i wipe just data or I should data + internal storage ?
Go to twrp
Wipe
Then click format
Then type yes
Then reboot the recovery
Then u can flash
Try Format data! It will erase your internal storage also. Now flash any ROM.
I am familiar with how by default in Stock Nougat for Moto G5 Plus, your data is encrypted and you must decrypt in TWRP by formatting data in order to view internal storage. I was just wondering if it is possible to restore an EFS backup through TWRP without having to decrypt your data (ie without formatting data)?
Any help is much appreciated!
Yes, decryption is only neccessary for the /data partition, you can modify and flash all other partitions without touching /data.
Hi,
I can't find the cache partition on twrp or nowhere. I made a full backup with TWRP but if I restore it then the cache partition not show anymore
¿Maybe the cache partition was damaged?
¿How can I recover it?
thanks.
Hello guys,
I had Lineage OS installed on my Galaxy S10+ and it got into boot loop after my phone lost power a few times because of low battery. The system halts at the Lineage Logo animating forever.
The problem is I canont access encrypted files on /data partition as it seems default Samsung encryption is used (and I have not disabled encryption when I was installing Linaage - I know - my mistake...) What I'm thinking to do is to do a dirty flash of the same system or an upgrade.
But before I will do it, I would like to do full backup of /data partition - sector by sector, so if my dirty flash won't work I can restore /data partition again and try to fix it again without loosing my data.
So my question is: How can I backup whole /data partition as an image? And how can I restore it?
My system is going into boot-loop, but I can get into recovery.
Thank you very much!!!
Encryption keys not withstanding it's the user partition that's likely been corrupted. You see where I'm going with this?
You try safe mode?
