restoring ROM @ TWRP - Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers

hi,
I have problem with restoring ROM (lineage unofficial) via TWRP.
Everytime I use restore and boot my phone, CPU is running at 80-100% and is overheating and draining battery.
Before ROM backup everything was fine.
Can anyone help please?

Lock screen freezes

I have a strange problem with my One X, the device freezes once the phone is been locked for a while. When I unlock it, the phone freezes on the lock screen or sometimes it just black out. I am using the ARHD rom at the moment. I have tried flashing the whole thing again, but that didnt work. Please help btw, the problem doesnt exist while charging.
well, try to do a nandroid-backup, do a full wipe and look if your problem still exist.
If not restore the nandroid, backup your apps + their data with Titanium Backup, then do a Full-Wipe again and restore your apps + their data but DON'T restore system data

Thanks! Will do that now and see if it works.
Let us know!
Both ways doesn't work
I am starting to think that it is a hardware problem, possibly the battery?

hmmm.. well, you could go to fastboot mode, erase cache, and install the boot.img of ARHD again..

Problem please help.

I am using a Galaxy Nexus GSM phone.I was earlier using the pararoid android ROM.However,the latest 3.0 update came and i downloaded it and flashed it.Since,then the phone is just stuck on the boot animation and does not proceed further.
I removed the ROM and started using STOCK ROM.
Formatted my memory card,
However now when i try installing ANY ROM,it is still stuck on the boot animation and does not proceed further.
What is the solution? PLEASE HELP!!!

TWRP Restore Issue

Hi guys,
I seem to have this problem where my nandroid backup from TWRP won't boot. I can only get it to boot after flashing the Rom over again after the store (this doesn't erase the data and all my file are still there, I just have to make sure I'm flashing the same Rom version as was part of the backup to avoid issues . But I was wondering if there is something else I should be doing here. I've used TWRP in the past and was just able to back up and restore no problem.
When I back up I make sure my system partition is mounted and I usually backup the default selections (boot/data/system, EFS) . My feeling is somehow the boot partition gets corrupted and won't allow the phone to continue booting, but I'm not sure why?
Any ideas? I'm using TWRP version 3.0.2-0. This happens when restoring nandroid for any rom (so far tried with oxygen/hydrogen/miui and cm14).
Thanks in advance.
I have question regarding TWRP. I always had a phone with an external SD card. This will be my first phone with no external memory. When I install a new ROM I always wiped internal, factory reset and cleared cache. Now can't do that anymore cause that will wipe my internal card and lose my nandroid backup. What are you guys wiping right before you install a ROM?

Standard factory reset on TWRP will erase data, cache and Calvin cache without wiping internal SD card. That's what most people use.

I don't have any solution for you but I can certainly concur. I've seen this behaviour as well but not as consistently as what you are describing. About 1/3rd of the time my restores don't work as you mentioned and I have to dirty flash the rom to get it to boot. Sometimes the restore even errors out while restoring the System partition in which case I just dirty flash. This is like my 9th or so Android device since Samsung released the SGS1 in whatever year that was and this is the first phone I've ever had this problem with. On previous phones it would happen rarely but nothing like it does on the OP3.

You can either not wipe internal storage (that is what I do usually) or you can buy an OTG adapter. I think TWRP supports it for our device. You can always copy off your backups via USB then wipe internal then copy your backups back too I think.
Did you for once try wiping the complete device after backing up nans on external storage and thn trying restoring? That would make a difference

I think he is asking to do below procedure -
1.Copy your nandroid backup and other imp stuff to computer
2.boot into TWRP
3.wipe all partitions including internal storage
4.copy nandroid backup to phone
5.restore backup through TWRP
Did you mount system to restore backup?

OK. Have not tried this, why would this work and fix my problem? Do I only have to do it once and then all subsequent restores would be fine? Is it a problem with my TWRP? Phone?

Sorry I don't have any backup files, but did you try to flash the stock rom using odin? Then reinstall root and twrp, obviously.

It seems strange because when I make some disasters with my phone, to resolve it I always do all wipes (wipe data, cache, dalvik, internal storage...) except my sd-card, then I remove the phone's battery and boot in download mode to flash the samsung firmware with odin....

Are you backing up both system and system image and trying to restore both? Try backing up system image alone and restore (not system).

EFS may also give issues while restoring. So backup everything else you want except system and EFS and try restoring.
