After downgrading from 2.3 when trying to turn off it reboots after 3 seconds. I tried to changing all files in image folder, flashed 136 again and again, but no luck. Any suggestions?
Great!!!! It worked!!!
I notice that to when I change from official 2.3 to a custom rom.
I think this official 2.3 deeply change the device settings and configuration and I believe the only thing that can be done is take it to assitance and demand to restore to absolute factory default, such as when you power it on for the 1st time. Then you never again install the official 2.3
Did you tried to wipe from recovery mode after flashing 136?
Tried all wipes sometimes twice in a row. And how to restore to absolute factory default?
The official 2.3 rom have fastboot option which is enabled by default. Maybe the 2.2 roms cannot disable this future after the downgrade. You can try to reflash 2.3 rom, disable fastboot from settings -> applications and then downgrade again.
It seems to me that I disabled that feature, but I'll try again today, thx!
That was a long shot, but doesn' t harm to try.

I've searched the internets and can't seem to find any help with this problem...
This is the second time I've perm-rooted my HTC Glacier (had no problems the first time), and I decided to flash a custom rom to it for the first time...
MIUI, to be exact...love it, it works great...except for the part where it completely shuts off my data if I reboot it a second time or it turns off after I ...
When the phone starts back up again, MIUI will claim to have "updated" itself, and all that jazz...but when I look up in the title bar, there's no data signal whatsoever, as if the device allowing you to accept mobile data is completely shut off...it's just gone...I still have a phone signal tho, with some bars...the only way to fix this is for me to wipe the user data using the Custom Recovery thing, flash the Froyo factory reset, then re-install the custom rom...which is a pain in the anus...
I rolled back to Froyo before rooting, then perm-rooted and flashed the custom rom following the guides provided on unlockr.com, if that helps...I'm not even sure if it's a problem that's specific to the rom I have, but can anyone help me out with this?...
Re-download the ROM and verify the md5 if it's available. Reboot into recovery and format system (mounts and storage menu in clockworkmod). Then wipe data/factory reset. Then flash the ROM. If that doesn't work let us know.
Check your APN settings.

I cannot use the default "Encrypt Phone" option on the settings menu of my Nexus 4. When used, it just reboots the phone and I have done this process over 5 times with no success.
I used the Android Nexus 4 ToolKitv2.0.0 and the recommended root tools and am running obviously 4.2.2.
Any reason why it's doing this? Thanks.

Are you using a custom recovery - TWRP or CWM? You need to be using the stock recovery image to encrypt your phone. The nexus toolkit will allow you to re-flash the stock recovery.
One the stock recovery has been re-flashed, you should be able to encrypt your phone. I had to re-flash stock recovery, reboot the phone, then reflash the stock recovery again.
Once the device has been successfully encrypted using the stock recovery, you can re-flash either the TWRP or CWM as your recovery. TWRP supports reading data from encrypted devices, so it is probably the way to go (not sure if CWM dows now, but it didn't last time I looked).
Does encrypting the phone make a dramatic difference in speed (as in slow down) for the phone or does it mainly affect boot times?
Thanks for the tip about having stock recovery as I also wanted to encrypt phone as well. Would one have to de-encrypt phone then install custom recovery to update a custom Rom (I'm running paranoid android) then flash to stock recovery to encrypt phone again- seems long winded :-\
Just from reading the above post once flashed to stock recovery and then encrypted device, it's okay to flash back to TWRP and still have an encrypted device?
Is there another way to do this when running a custom rom?

I haven't noticed a difference in speed, however technically there will be a little bit of a slowdown.
I'm running stock Android, so I don't know how well it plays with custom ROMs, but you can re-flash a TWRP recovery after encrypting your phone with stock Android on it.
If the custom ROM installation wipes the data partition, it would remove the encryption.
I've tried flashing stock recovery using Nexus 4 Toolkit and recovery is back to stock. However the phone is still just rebooting when I press encrypt device. What am I doing wrong?
For some reason I had to reflash the stock recovery, reboot, then reflash the stock recovery again. No idea why, but it worked for me!

Booted back into stock recovery device is still rebooting itself after hitting the encrypt button, Encryption did not happen.
Found the problem but I can't seem to fix it. Flashing the stock recovery doesn't seem to actually do it. When I boot to recovery when flashed to stock, it just shows the android mascot with an open chest and a warning symbol. Have reflashed many times over 5, and still doesn't work. It seems like I need the actual image recovery file. something like Recovery.img?

The android with a warning symbol is the normal symbol of stock recovery.
However, I wonder, if you could solve the problem? My nexus doesn't want to encrypt itself too. Flashed stock recovery already twice and it just keeps rebooting when I start the encryption process.
Quick update: After trying it several times in a row it finally worked (after the fourth time or so). I have no clue why it didn't work before as I haven't change anything.

Thanks for your perseverance! I spent half a day trying to encrypt my rooted Galaxy S4 with the similar problem as you:
I go into System Settings, click "Encrypt Phone", then I get the green android and the phone just reboots itself as normal.
What worked for me: AIRPLANE MODE.
I was rebooting it time after time with no effect (following your suggestion). Once I turned on the Airplane Mode, the encryption started working.
My Current Setup:
Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Edition (GT-I9505g) rooted via CF auto root. + Full disk encryption!
Works perfectly!
Now I can have different passwords for disk encryption (long strong password) and for locker screen (simple)

Old thread, same issue, HTC One w/ OmniROM (m7att). My Nexus 10 did it as well.
The person saying to reflash stock? DOn't listen to that. Doesn't need to be done. Encrypted all my devices w/ TWRP installed.
Airplane mode DID work, though.
I just had this issue with my N4, too. I read on the Google Product Forum that this was because a process prevents from unmounting the /data partition. ("Nexus 5 is not going through encryption process" - can't post link due to being new)
With that in mind, I rebooted into safe mode and then tried again and it worked on the first try (At least it started the encryption process, it's at 10% now)
I had this problem for a looooong time. Thankfully, I seem to have discovered a solution for those still encountering this issue.
Turn off SuperSU (Settings -> More -> Application manager -> All -> SuperSU -> Turn Off)
Reboot into Safe Mode (How to)
Run encryption (Settings -> More -> Security -> Encrypt Device)
Turn on SuperSU after complete (Settings -> More - > Application manager -> Turned Off -> SuperSU -> Turn On)

Flash the bootloader patch by dr ketan (not to be confused with the wifi patch) Also wanam xposed to disable knox
thanks mate but i have already flashed the mk9 official rom and still that pop up persist
i really dont know where that pop up is coming
there is also a pop up showing that "FACTORY MODE IS ON"
what could possibly went wrong?
There's something interesting going on in your phone. You have factory mode enabled, how you did it or what you did to turn it on? This is really interesting.
Edit :
Did you come from a custom ROM or from official Samsung stock.?
you have to read here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703175
i think i made a mistake
as far as i can remember, its running 4.1.2 MC3 custom rom.
then i flashed > Stock_Deodex_Rooted_N7100XXDME6_N7100DBTDME2_N7100XXDME4_DBT
then i flashed > BL_N7100XXUEMJ5_1903221_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5 < so that i can install 4.3 custom rom.
flashed > philz_touch_5.15.0-n7100.tar.md5 < to root
after all those, even if i factory reset the phone, it never came to the usual setting of accounts where we set the language, connect to wifi, samsung accounts, etc.. it just boots up directly to the home screen with a foreign language.. and those pop ups (screen shots) keeps on popping out..
i flashed an official MJ5 rom through ODIN, factory resetted, but still booting it up goes directly to the home screen.
again, flashed official MK9 rom with BL, and still booting it up goes directly to the home screen..
i've messed up the phone..

When i flash the latest NEE Stock rom i got no wifi signal it dosent want to turn on, it only hangs there and says activating but nothing happens and when i press the power off button instead of the little menu that comes up it just shuts down, i also tried to flash a custom rom and then the wifi works on there and theres no problem at all but it just messes up at the stock rom..?
Possibly a bug on the Stock Rom, Stick with a custom until incremental updates are issued to fix any Stock Issues.

Yeah but the problem is WIFI on the stock one worked before, what i did when i went to the custom one, is i backed up the EFS folder and restored it thats all i did nothing was wrong, then i went back to stock and bam no wifi. Dont know what to do, i factory wiped, cache dalvik and still its not there, never experienced this problem before.
So a while back I flashed a pre-rooted firmware from this thread. Everything was working flawlessly until I had to go back to a stock rom for some time. Then I flashed the pre-rooted one again only to find out that whenever I update or uninstall apps my phone just restarts. I haven't done any factory resets in between flashing the roms (I probably should have), so that might be the problem but I just want to make sure. One thing to add is that I can normally update/uninstall apps on the stock rom.
I can provide additional info if needed. Thanks for any kind of help.
Format it will be fixed
Factory reset your phone and the problem will be fixed
