I am doing data recovery on a Xaomi Redmi Note 4(x?) [mido] and I have finally gotten a flash dump ( the screen is scuffed and no perms have been set ( no adb,oem unlock, storage access )) Only way to recover the data would've been to dump the userdata, loopback mount it and copy the files. simple enough, done a few. except no. the tool I used to get the partition table and flash dump says
userdata: Offset 0x0000000148082000, Length 0x0000000d47779e00, Flags 0x0000000000000000, UUID 0f772dd9-b55d-1184-ecf9-bb352eb97272, Type 0x1b81e7e6, Active False
The 'Type' part is what confuses me most, it's twice as long to be a gdisk partition-id-thing and far too short to be a GUID This wouldn't matter if I could mount it to begin with, but thing is, binwalk reports that at offset 0xDCDB29 there is a 'VMware4 disk image'. I try to mount this via qemu-nbd but no ext filesystem ( or others for that matter ) is found does the mido do FDE even without a passcode? the phone doesn't have one I forgot to mention... And if that's the case, how do I even decrypt the data? I've asked on a couple other forums for help already, nothing yet. Honestly any method / guide to broken screen recovery on a full stock android is much apreciated!
