TWRP Manual Transfer
====================
This tool allows you to recover apps data from a TWRP-compatible backup
## Android requirements
- TWRP
- Magisk
- Magisk Manager
- ADB enabled
## Computer requirements
- Linux
- Bash installed
- adb (`sudo apt install android-tools-adb -y`)
## Usage
- `./0_extract.sh <path-to-the-backup-directory>`
- `./1_create_package_list.sh`
- Remove the unwanted/system packages from work/packages_list_*<backup-user-id>*.txt
- If you have multiple users on your phone, switch to the user you want to recover
- `./2_twrp_manual_transfer.sh <backup-user-id> <current-phone-user-id>` (The default user id is 0,)
- Follow what the console asks you.
- If the app is not installed, install it, wait until it has completely finished, and then press volume UP.
- If the app is already installed and you want to overwrite the data, just press volume UP.
- If the app is already installed and you don't want to overwrite the data, just press volume DOWN.
- If the play store tells you an error but you know that the app is already installed, press the volume UP button.
- If the play store tells you an error and you don't have that app, skip to the next app using the volume DOWN button.
- At the end restart the phone to fix permissions, if the app are crashing.
