MIUI 13 MIUI 13 STABLE RELEASE

[katerpanne]

I know this was passive-aggressive but thanks anyway

i try to help as far as i can… but i dont know where is your challenge…

 

[Igor Eisberg]

Does this mean that "Ok Google" won't work when the screen is off on Chinese phones? Particularly interested whether it will work on Chinese version of Mi 11 Ultra?

Mi 11 Ultra has a Global model, so if you're using our ROM, "OK Google" (Voice Match) should work fine when the screen is off.
What I told him was relevant to Mi 10T Lite (gauguin) which supports Voice Match when the screen is off, while the Chinese model Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G (gauguinpro) does not, due to different codenames.

Hi everyone, if I am in version 12 can i update to 13 by recovery without losing data? In a poco f3, Thanks!

Thanks for answer. As far as I know Mi 11 Ultra has not only Global model but Chinese model too. So I desperately trying to find out if it be possible to use "OK Google" (Voice Match) when the screen is off with your ROM on Chinese model from Ali...)).

Then I answered your question. Both Chinese and Global models of Mi 11 Ultra are codename star, so Voice Match will work the same.

Hello everyone.
Can I update from 12.5 to 13 via recovery? If so which data I will loose?

So... Sorry for upping this message but I didnt get an answer If I can find info somewhere please give me a link.

 

[zgfg12]

So, you boot to OFox, it asks for a decryption pattern, I input the pattern, it says it doesn't work and after I hit the back button it still drops to the OFox menu and I can browse the files, I can manage backups, I can even go to the app manager in OFox and it sees all my apps, etc, so ___seemingly___ the pattern did work and it was able to decrypt + mount everything but still, there was an error message etc..
When I remove the pattern is doesn't ask for anything, just drops me to the file browser. When I add back the pattern and all my fingerprints it starting this again. Even after formating /data.
Hope this helps to understand the situation.

Make a screenshot and post

For a screenshot in TWRP/OF, press Vol- and Pow in parallel

It should say Successful decryption for User 0 but Failed for User 999 - and that's ok

If I read well:

1. I have Poco F3 and 12.5 stable xiaomi.eu
2. I should install TWRP that supports A12 and I can udate from 12.5 xiaomi.eu to 13 xiaomi.eu iwthout loosing data

Am I right?

 

[zgfg12]

OTA uptades? You mean, is it possible that after installing the latest rom, the next will come like a regular udpate? No need for computer, and twrp? Or did I misunderstand?

Yes, once you will be upgrading from the Recovery type ROM

Upgrade will look like:
Download the latest Xiaom.eu from Updater, read pop-up instructions, accept to reboot (automatically to custom recovery), custom recovery will automatically start to install and will automatically reboot to the system when finished.
As you can see, no need for PC (and fastboot) anymore

That's why Xiaomi.eu pushes Recovery type ROMs, whenever the appropriate custom recovery becomes available

yes i update and i didnt loose data, you can upload

Please read back properly and check post #5432 and see the screenshots under the spoiler tag: it's not the second space (or whatever other) user (999) issue, it says decryption of user 0 was unsuccessful.

12 Pro
After flashing last stable by twrp it reboots again in twrp, anyone can help me ?

Then strange

But the answer to your other question:

Inspect /vendor/etc/fstab.* file (by MiXPlorer with root or copy the file to Download folder by TWRP/OF)

Inside, find the filesystem definition for userdata:

/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata                  /data                  f2fs    noatime,nosuid,nodev,discard,inlinecrypt,reserve_root=32768,resgid=1065,fsync_mode=nobarrier    latemount,wait,check,formattable,fileencryption=aes-256-xts:aes-256-cts:v2+emmc_optimized+wrappedkey_v0,keydirectory=/metadata/vold/metadata_encryption,metadata_encryption=aes-256-xts:wrappedkey_v0,quota,reservedsize=128M,sysfs_path=/sys/devices/platform/soc/1d84000.ufshc,checkpoint=fs

(scroll to the right to read...)

In my case, above, it is f2fs with aes-256 encryption

Thanks for your reply!
Do you have a joyeuse, too? Because my fstab is really different compared to yours:

joyeuse:/ # grep "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata" /vendor/etc/fstab.*
/vendor/etc/fstab.default:/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata                  /data                    f2fs    noatime,nosuid,nodev,discard,reserve_root=32768,resgid=1065,fsync_mode=nobarrier,inlinecrypt    latemount,wait,check,formattable,fileencryption=ice,wrappedkey,quota,reservedsize=128M,checkpoint=fs
/vendor/etc/fstab.emmc:/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/userdata                  /data                    f2fs    noatime,nosuid,nodev,discard,reserve_root=32768,resgid=1065,fsync_mode=nobarrier,inlinecrypt    latemount,wait,check,formattable,fileencryption=ice,wrappedkey,quota,reservedsize=128M,checkpoint=fs

For example even though it is f2fs it has no metadata_encryption specified and fileencryption is ice not aes-256-xts:aes-256-cts:v2+emmc_optimized+wrappedkey_v0 as I see in your output..

That isn't a problem. If you write:
mount | grep '/data'
you will see the actual mount. ICE becomes the encryption method.

 

[IntegratedGraphics]

WHY every time we want to edit a picture or video the editor needs to be downloaded? i dont even clear my apps cache and this happens all the time. There isn't any way to keep the editor on our phones?

 

[crok.bic]

mount | grep '/data'

Thanks. userdata is what I should look for?

I have Lisa (device was originally launched with A11)

You can read the official FBE documentation:

File-Based Encryption | Android Open Source Project

source.android.com

Seems that your device was originally launched with A10 (or lower) - search in the document for:
fileencryption=ice

Indeed, joyeuse been released running Android 10 originally. It's clear that it's FBEv1 but not clear how && why now, running on A12 MIUI 13 OFox runs to an error even though decrypt by OFox seems to work anyway..

Strange but have you tested scenarios like:

- you don't enter pin/pattern, does OF still decrypts, ie, do you still see correct file names

- you enter wrong pin/pattern, does OF still decrypts,
ie, do you still see correct file names

Maybe, decryption works correctly (it decrypts only if you enter correct pin/pattern) but it just prints an error instead of success

I already answered all these questions here in #5,432

- you don't enter pin/pattern, does OF still decrypts, ie, do you still see correct file names
--> If I don't enter a pin / pattern then internal storage and /data is unreadable (I mean: filenames are gibberish)
- you enter wrong pin/pattern, does OF still decrypts,
ie, do you still see correct file names
--> If enter a wrong pin / pattern then internal storage and /data is unreadable (I mean: filenames are gibberish)

And yes, that's my idea, too, that "it just prints an error instead of success" but without knowing what's the trigger for the error message I won't rely on it (i.e. what if I make a /data backup and I want to use it.. shall I trust the backup or not? Shall I trust the error message or not?). Sorry for being OffTopic but it seems that it does this only with /data encrypted by Xiaomi.EU (and more than likely with Xiaomi factory ROM, too).

Instead of making assumptions, one possibility is to make a good copy of your data (outside the device) and install via fastboot the latest stable stock rom release for your device.
Then install xiaomi.eu again (I think xiaomi.eu don't flash /data partition, if it does, then only install latest stable xiaomi.eu via fastboot).
This way, I think you force the device to have all partitions according the last "factory" state.

I'm thinking about this, too, although this unit in my hands never saw anything else just the factory A10 ROM, upgraded to A11 ROM and then the A11 Xiaomi.EU ROM and now the A12 - so this unit never had any AOSP or LOS based ROM or anything else.
