I have dd-ed a btrfs partition (from a Jolla phone), as per some last resort instructions to have a safety copy of it (see: notes in Mer's Sailfish/Backup Device wiki page, ). Perhaps wrongly so, after reading the Btrfs Gotchas wiki page.
[updated]
I want to copy a few files from within the subvolume home. Note, the files were not deleted. When I mount the subvolume of interest, I can navigate in directories and list files. However, every attempt to read or copy fails.
[updated] After dding back the image to an empty micro-SD card (an attempt to see if the failure to copy files, i.e. cp: reading 'filename': Input/output error, is due to what is mentioned
at http://superuser.com/a/793638/128768), as root, I do:
# list tree roots

As per https://superuser.com/a/875265/128768, I do:
# mount the card
mount /dev/sdc /mnt/ddjolla
# enter in
cd /mnt/ddjolla/
# then, list subvolumes
btrfs subvolume list .

ID 327 gen 2484920 top level 5 path @

# set default subvolume to one from which to revert files
btrfs subvolume set-default 328 /mnt/ddjolla
# unmount
umount /mnt/blah
Looks good so far. At this point,
# try to find root(s)
btrfs-find-root /dev/sdc

whatever is on-going is too slow, consumes CPU resources and there is no sign of progress.
I "discovered", now, that likely the filesystem of the sdcard in which I directed the output file of dd was a FAT one! (See comments in Q&A full phone backup guide in https://together.jolla.com/questions/) Likely this was a no-go (for files >4GB) and the most of the data, from the original partition, are lost (which, apparently, was >4GB). Is that so?
For the records, here another piece of info

Is there anyway to troubleshoot this one and do btrfs restore -r ... as described in the reference answer? If not, and likely this is the case, perhaps this may serve as a useful mistake to avoid similar ones in the future.
