MIUI encryption has been a major roadblock for users trying to recover their personal photos, videos, and backups stored in .lsa and .lsav files. For a long time, there was no clear working solution — most tools failed, and documentation was almost non-existent.
On TheDevOpsRite, I have now successfully decrypted .lsa and .lsav files using Python, and I’ve shared the complete working process in a video tutorial.
✅ What This Solution Covers
Understanding how MIUI encrypts .lsa and .lsav files
Extracting the correct decryption hex key
Using Python + PyCryptodome for real decryption
Converting encrypted files back into usable photos/videos
Handling padding and data integrity correctly
This is a real, tested method — not a theory or fake tool.
🔐 Security & Ethical Use
This method is strictly for educational and personal data recovery.
Only decrypt files you personally own.
Never share your hex keys publicly on forums or in comments.
If you need help, always use private and secure communication.
🛠 Tech Stack Used
Python 3
PyCryptodome
MIUI encrypted backup analysis
Custom scripts for .lsa / .lsav handling
