LineageOS 19 Google backup not working at all
Some people on rooted devices use Migrate or Neo Backup (formerly OAndBackupX) but I never tried to restore those so can't comment.

[HELP] Update over OTA
I'm assuming you're already rooted based on your question? That should make things easier. I personally use a root backup app like Neo Backup to backup apps and app data and store it on a hard drive along with other important files. Also, if you're willing and the option's available, I would make a TWRP backup just in case. Then you can clean install and restore your apps and files separately. Encryption shouldn't be an issue if you backup using an app.

"Anytime someone puts a lock on something you own, against your wishes, and doesn't give you the key, they're not doing it for your benefit". However, people seem to like it. The sorry state of Android Backups
NeoBackup should be decent if you're digging for an OSS solution.

How to restore apps trough .ab files? Adb restore not working....
With root access the Neo Backup app is great: https://github.com/NeoApplications/Neo-Backup/releases/. Yes, I tried it on WSA too and it works.

GitHub - mrrfv/linux-android-backup: Back up your device without vendor lock-ins, using insecure software or root. Supports encryption and compression out of the box. Works cross-platform.
I'm tempted to switch to a Google Pixel phone with GrapheneOS but for now I couldn't find any alternative to Neo-Backup, which requires root.

Review: Moaan InkPalm Plus is weird, cheap, small, and my kind of e-reader
I have one too, great device for the price, the review is spot on.
Thanks for your repo, good info, starred. The link [1] to rooting is fascinating and frustrating: a reminder that most Android is still far from open. A smart Chinese manufacturer should make one of these with completely open bootloader and full source: Watch what the enthusiasts do with it then steal those ideas for v2.

Setup Xiaomi Inkpalm 5
I believe this step would be an alternative to getting root on the device (as instructed here: https://github.com/qwerty12/inkPalm-5-EPD105-root). I didn’t see these instructions initially, so I’m assuming it’s not necessary since the instructions I used for uninstalling did the same job. (Again: not tech savvy so idk).

Recommendations for a phone sized device please.
If it's the Chinese Moann 5.2" device that CECT-Shop sells we're talking about, then yes, the InkPalm 5. If you're running the exact same firmware version (very important it's the same) that the pre-patched Magisk zip offers then rooting is simple - just sideload the zip in recovery.
