internal storage – How to Recover Data if Metadata partition was deleted
I accidentally wiped the metadata partition along with Dalvik/ART and Cache using TWRP and now I can’t boot into the OS. Internal Storage and USB-OTG were excluded.
Is there any way to backup my data (files, photos…)? Either by somehow fixing what I did wrong and booting into the OS or just by connecting the phone to a PC and using adb or any other method?
When I boot into TWRP, the Internal Storage says 0mb and the TWRP built-in File Manager can see some folders and files but cannot access all of them. For example, it doesn’t show anything inside the data folder, which is what I care about saving.
The phone is Poco F3 with Android 13 Custom ROM from Xiaomi.eu, rooted with Magisk v27 and alioth TWRP version 3.7.0-12-POCOF3-v7.9_A13, if that helps.
I know I can flash a new ROM and boot the phone. But right now, I don’t care about fixing the phone, just about my data, and I just want to save it if possible in any way? It may even be encrypted, doesn’t matter, as long as I can decrypt it later and access it.
