Installing unofficial build for Xperia XZ1 Compact (lilac)

[petefoth]

The steps for installing IodeOS have been changed / simplified for official devices. Unfortunately, the simplified steps do not work (yet) for my unofficial builds, so the instructions in my post about the build are now slightly misleading. Updated instructions for flashing my unofficial builds are as follows

Download TWRP recovery

• Download TWRP version twrp-3.6.2_12-0-20221002-lilac.img downloaded from here

Flash TWRP recovery

• Follow the Installing a custom recovery using fastboot instructions from the LineageOS Wiki page for Xperia Z3 Compact

Installing IodeOS from TWRP recovery

• EITHER flash using adb sideload as described in the Installing LineageOS from recovery instructions from the LineageOS Wiki page for Xperia Z3 Compact
• OR copy the ROM .zip file to external SD card and install it from there using TWRP Install function

I installed iode 5.13 from here lilac
It seems like twrp-3.6.2_12-0-20221002-lilac.img cant decrypt the files. Is there a newer version for Android 13?

Not that I know of - sorry! I use the same TWRP version, and it does not decrypt files stored on the internal SD card. As I recall, this hasn’t worked with TWRP for lilac since Android introduced File Based Encryption in place of Full Disk Encryption. I don’t know of any way around this.

This of course means that TWRP backup / restore will no longer work. I use one or more of the backup methods discussed in this Wiki post
