But in my opinion the full potential of TWRP could only be with decryption, thatās why I made some trials to include it (unfortunately without success)
What is it? Could you explain a little? I searched it up and only found some direct download links (on androidfilehost or sourceforge). Is it an opensource tool or closed-source?
I had to google it as well and couldnāt find sources either, not that uncommon with tools like that, but stillā¦
Iāve seen itās used in LeOS, does @harvey186 know where itās from?
Itās 32Ā°C at my desk right now so Iām not gonna test something that might make me stay here longer getting my phone back to a working state, sorry
itās a script for removing force encryption setup from device fstab. Nothing more. You can do it also by hand if your vendor image is writeable. The zip is for using with TWRP
It is from a developer in PHH treble telegram group / xda member. there are 2 versions. DisableForceEncryption.zip for devices without super partition and dynDFE.zip for devices with super partition.
And on my desk where Iām just building GSIs are around 40 degrees. In normal room 28 and outside 34 degrees. Welcome summer :))
So this tool is not really about decrypting anything right ?
You basically flash that to disable force encryption, wiping everything in the process, thus allowing full TWRP features to work.
Assuming the said zip works
I remember back in the days - Iām talking Samsung Galaxy S2/3 days - it was common to disable forced encryption as it would notably speed up the device. Iām not sure what would be the point of disabling encryption nowadays (well except when you need to use a TWRP that cannot decrypt your device ofc )
So if I understand well, this process will wipe all data and disable encryption, then youāll be able to fresh install StockOS/CustomOS on it without encryption, thus being able of doing TWRP backups??
However I have no idea how this thing works nor if itās bulletproof for every devicesā¦ Unless it has been tested on FP4 before by someone whoād care to report ?
Similar here on FP4 /e/OS. fastboot boot twrp.img causes phone to be stuck at the logo in boot up. Issuing the same command again creates a bootloop. Itās only possible to leave the bootloop (and successfully start the system) by going into bootloader/fastboot again and issuing fastboot set_active a command and start system then.
TWRP site says not to do it, but the only thing that worked was to flash the image first and then i could go into TWRP recovery. I did not installed it from the zip file because to do so I had to chose which partition to install on, and i did not find anything with google. But after reboot i can boot into TWRP again without problems.
These links look like the ton of auto-generated content you can find on the web.
The device article related page is automatically filling a template with [device_name].
Generally speaking for the FP4, Iād say given the amount and the quality of the passionate people on this forum, if any method to do anything is somewhere, itād be here. Even XDA forums canāt compete. So Iād have some doubts towards any information provided in random android blogs
