Many MIUI users face a serious problem when their backup photos, videos, or data are locked inside encrypted .sa and .sav files. Without the correct key, these files are completely unreadable — and most tools online simply don’t work.
On TheDevOpsRite, I’ve now published a complete step-by-step video guide where I show:
✅ What I Demonstrate in the Video
How to extract an APK from a Play Store app
How to extract the APK certificate hex value using my web app
How that hex certificate acts as the decryption key
How to use Python + PyCryptodome to decrypt:
.sa files
.sav files
The same concept I previously used for .lsa and .lsav decryption — now extended for MIUI .sa/.sav
This method helps users recover their own encrypted MIUI backups safely and logically, instead of relying on random unsafe tools.
🔐 About Data Safety & Privacy
This process is shown strictly for educational and personal data recovery purposes.
Users should only decrypt files they personally own.
Hex keys must never be shared publicly.
In the video, I explain how users can share keys privately and securely if they need help.
🛠 Tech Stack Used
Python 3
PyCryptodome
APK extractor tools
Custom web app for certificate extraction
