Tipatch 1.1

Tipatch patches TWRP to backup contents of internal storage (emulated SD card) as part of Data. Internal storage typically includes items such as photos, videos, downloads, game data, and other assorted files. TWRP "full" data backups are misleading and could lead to data loss as they do not include these files.

Tipatch is available as an Android app or computer program.

The app (recommended) supports patching an image and saving the result anywhere, as well as patching the currently installed recovery in-place on rooted devices. It has been confirmed to work on Exynos, Snapdragon, Kirin, and MediaTek devices.
