Hello,
I just wanted to ask, how to backup and restore on this phone, and whats a working TWRP for this. Currently im on xiaomi.eu 9.8.15 with the newest greek twrp. But everytime I backup, install a new ROM to try out and then restore the backup via TWRP, I get into a bootloop after restoring. Its quite annoying, because I have to reflash xiaomi.eu and starr again from the beginning. Any tips?
With kindest regards

Don't use Greek TWRP. Use the one from 4PDA. Backup and restore works fine.

1)TWRP Backup includes EVERYTHING. It creates an exact image of your phone. All apps, their data, sms, call logs, just everything, lol.
2)only Zip

Nope the TWRP backup the system and rom also almost everything if you installed another rom and used the backup it will go back to the rom you had I think but if you can check backup data and apps only that will backup your apps and data only

Goto Menu in Titanium Backup you will find an option Extract from Nandroid Backup
255 error due to no space in your Internal Storage , try to wipe Internal Storage after that copy your backup to Internal Storage and restore
Hello,
some time ago I tried backing up my 6T via TWRP by backing up ALL partitions. But restoring them somethimes just didn't work or completely bricked the phone (also bootloader and kinda fastboot).
So did I something wrong (like backing up and restoring something I shouldn't) or is that the case for 6T's. How to take a full Nandroid?
I'd really appreciate help!
Best regards,
Shirotaku

In my experience. You can only restore on the same rom if you're going to backup everything. So if I'm on 9.0.12 and make a backup. I can't restore that when I'm on anything other then whatever rom I was on when I created that restore point. So basically. If you're on 9.0.12 and want to restore your 9.0.12 then I would wipe everything install a fresh 9.0.12 and then use my backup. I use twrp to make a backup when I'm on a fresh new rom or after I got my phone how I like it. Then in the future if I ever mess it up with xposed or something or it doesn't boot I can just use that twrp backup before I have to go to the last resort which is using the msm tool and making my phone how it was out of the box. Then have to reroot re get twrp ect..
There is an app called migrate which will save all your app data ect.. And put it in a flash able zip. So if you want to flash a new rom you can use the migrate app first to backup all your app data and then flash the new rom and your migrate.zip. Then you'll be on a new rom with all your app data back. Just re-download your apps or you can also choose to backup the app itself a long with the data in migrate. Hope this helps.

Thx, I'll try this next time
I restore whatever I want on whatever rom anytime. I restore overtop oos, over customs, just data, just boot just system, just vendor... Doesn't matter. All works fine no matter how one does it . I could be on stock tmo, boot to twrp and restore any of my backups..
Does it make a difference if I have a passcode on my phone or not?
Hi Guys,
I have a bootloop and I think I need to reflash the official rom to get things working again. I have TWRP installed and dont want to lose that.
Where can I download and what are the instructions to flash the official rom so I dont lose TWRP? Thanks!

If you can still get into TWRP, there is no need to install a stock ROM. If you do, you will not only have to reinstall TWRP, but it will also encrypt your data partition. Just make sure that you perform a wipe to do a clean install of whichever ROM you choose. Also, if you haven't ever formatted the data partition, that will prevent from backing up or installing a custom ROM. If that is the case, make sure you copy any files you have saved because, unlike a wipe, formatting the data partition will delete EVERYTHING on that partition.

I had it too with many devices.
It really depends, some times, the TWRP can't access the partition it want to write. Other times, one file of the backup is corrupted (so it halt).
Try to change TWRP, mount the system partition and check. If it don't work.. i would say that you wont be able to fix with that backup in particular.
Try to make a new backup too, and restore from it to see if with the new backup, the problem persist.

Yeap, it is still in it's infancy, where other TWRPs solved some issues that even the latest OF still has
I have just made a new backup after restore from Titanium Backup, but after flash new firmware and test some new roms, some of apps were crushing after restore and must be installed and configured one again.
