I have a new Galaxy Note 3 (having bricked one trying to understand why it wouldn't encrypt) and now with a full stock rom I still find that the phone is impossible to encrypt.
I have an encrypted SD card in it. (only thing I can think of that might be causing problems)..
Settings > General > Security > Encrypt Device keeps stopping after a single shutdown,
How the heck do I encrypt this thing?? - Am I missing the blindingly obvious..
Thanks

I'm having the exact same issue. Encryption is requited to get my work email and I can't get it to go.
Finally got mine to encrypt
Took me a bunch of tries.. and finally once i opened a chat with samsung support it finally worked.. i was at 100% charge, plugged into the wall and if finally worked. not sure if thats a bug in its detection if your over the stated 80% or not... good luck.. i finally got it working though.. only did a fast encryption as it didn't work on previous tries either way... so i just chose one and tried it again.

I have the Google Policy Manager and Encryption is required for me too. I started at 81% and the first time I did it, it just rebooted. The second time I did it it worked like it was suppose to. Try it again right after it reboots and see if it works.
Make sure the phone is charged and keep trying over and over.
It will work eventually.
I gave up. I'm using touchdown now for work email which will allow me to skip full device encryption

Same problem here, it will not encrypt
....help please
This is the answer I found doing a couple of root and unroot
1.If you encrypt the device and then root it you will net get past the passcode in the phone (black screen)
2. If you root the phone first and ten try to encrypt you will get the problems mentioned in this thread
..any tips how to get the phone rooted and then encrypted?

anyone at all? im stuck. Bump!
was having a similar problem on nexus 4 but safe mode helped there.
dind't help on my new n3. shouldn't have rooted before encrypting.
tried pressing encrypt about 10 times.
tried boot into recovery + wipe . also tried safe mode. also tried unroot + factory reset (pretty sure recovery + wipe /data is the same as reset user data from settings).
waiting for the firmware image to download - decided to try a firmware reflash
and then before flashing it I tried rebooting to recovery and powering off and encrypting and it worked. or maybe it was that random 12th time it worked because of an unrelated reason.
and after trying to root it again it just booted to a black screen after cf-root and enter encryption password screen.
*sigh*

I'm an AT&T customer, but I bought a T Mobile Note 3 off of Craigslist, unlocked it, rooted using Chainfire's ODIN thread, and then used the RegionFree Lock Away app. I was unable to encrypt just like you guys until I did the following. Flashed TWRP tar file from the TWRP site using ODIN. Rebooted into recovery and made an image, backup up everything, just in case. Rebooted and went in the SU Superuser application that Chainfire originally installed and uninstalled through the settings in the program. Once I rebooted I was able to encrypt the device (without fast method), I already had my SD Card encrypted. Once I encrypted the device I downloaded Kingo Root at the advice of DesignGears and used the one click root application from the Kingo Root site (google it.) After I did that, I now have full root access back, encryption, and never had to uninstall the region lock, so I didn't lose phone connectivity, applications, or anything else during the process. I recommend using TitaniumBackup and syncing via Google Drive or Dropbox before you start the process so you can restore your apps and data, once again, just in case.
encrypted ATT Note 3 not able to root
I was able to unroot my ATT Note 3 and then encrypted it. But Kingo Root failed to root the device. (I used it to root the phone once previously)
Now I stuck in a status with encrypted phone not able to root anymore.
Any suggestions please?

I was able to get mine to encrypt after killing the bloat apps. All Google sync, amazon, and Verizon services. I can't say which one was killing it since it stopped pretty much every app or service that wasn't critical to the device.
Can anyone confirm that Encryption will never work once we root our phone ?

Same question here... Anyone was able to encrypt after being rooted???
Same question, rooted can't encrypt.
Just got a note 3 and this is an old thread. So wanted to update this question.
To encrypt device after root all that is needed to do is run the following command from terminal or adb shell as root. You must have the latest busybox installed.
pkill -KILL daemonsu
After running this command you should be back at the "$" prompt and out of root. Do not run su again.
Then encrypt your device. Encryption should work fine. Once rebooted you will have root again.
I had to repeat the above steps because I ran su again. Running su restarts daemonsu.
Good luck
Hi,
I was able to root and encrypt my sm-n900 note3 using the steps mentioned on this post:

I've installed the bloatwares after rooting and encrypt.
Hey guys..This website has solved a lot of problems..So I hope it solve this too
My problem started when I flashed Cm12.1 on my s3 neo gt-i9031I
The ROM was flashed and it worked perfectly..And then I installed SuperSu app from the play store
And here the problem comes..the app said that it needs to update Su binary
I tried the normal way but then it said "Installion failed,Please reboot and try again"
And after rebooting several times it keeps saying the same thing
I tried using option twrp (I have twrp recovery installed)
It said that the app will attempt to reboot my phone to recovery..But then nothing happened. didn't reboot or do anything.. I booted into recovery but nothing happened either
Then I saw a YouTube video that has Su bb installer
I downloaded a zip and flashed it via recovery.. And the problem got worser..After I booted..I found that SuperSu icon has changed..To the old version.. The superman icon..When I try to open it...It doesn't open and lags the phone..
Tried to update via play store
Successfully updated but it doesn't wanna open and it made the phone laggy
I had to uninstall updates..Force stop and disable and the phone returned back to normal..No lags
But now I am in unrooted status I think.. can't open the app or remove it cuz it was a system app
I think the problem got worser when I flashed the Su Bb installer which the video said that it works for every phone
I think it was too old..I don't know..please help..Sorry for the too long topic..I am afraid of rerooting cuz I am already rooted but I can open the app..HELP..HELP..HELP
The Su bb installer link that I used

Don't do anything. Just re flashed CM 12.1 or any CM ROM. before do anything read their instructions carefully. Ok
In all CM based ROMs the root is disabled by default. Go to settings>About Device and click on Build Number 7 times. Return back and you will have Developers options just above About Device menu. Go in there and there you can unable root access. After that do whatever you want.
Hello.
My Galaxy S4 was dying so T-Mobile just replaced it with an S5. It came with:
LMY47X.G900TUVS1FOJ4
I clicked on Software updates in About device and it did whatever updates, but the version stayed the same. Then I went to autoroot [dot] chainfire [dot] eu and downloaded the correct file to root. I unzipped the file and ran Odin 3.10.6 that came with it. I was able to root the device no problem.
What seemed like a problem afterward was that I couldn't find SuperSU in the Application list. I know the phone was rooted though because I could launch Titanium Backup to restore all my stuff from the S4. I went to the Play Store to download SuperSU. It kept complaining that I needed a new binary, but it would fail every time to update. I even tried downloading the latest SuperSU zip to install in the recovery mode, but that failed too. I really wasn't too worried about this.
While looking up how to root the S5, I saw some posts where people mentioned their root access stopped after 24 hours. I just experienced this when I launched Titanium Backup to begin uninstalling bloatware. I was informed that I didn't have root access anymore.
I figured I'd try to reflash the auto-root through Odin. According to Odin, everything passed, but looking at the device, it said it's already patched and the restore failed, so it aborted.
Now the device is stuck in an infinite reboot loop. I can access both the download and recovery modes, but that's it.
I'd really really like to not have to do a factory wipe as it was a pain to get everything copied over from the S4.
Can I flash it with something else?
Once I can get back in the device, how do I keep the device rooted? Do I have to flash TWRP or CWM?
The only root program I use is Titanium Backup and would really really like to keep using it to makr regular backups.
Thanks a lot.
Try booting into recovery and wiping the CACHES
If it still won't boot, grab a stock ROM from sammobile .com for your model S5 (G900T by the looks of the ROM name) and flash it with ODIN from download mode
That won't wipe your data or anything you've restored, as long as you don't reset
If it still won't boot, you might have to suck it up and factory reset after flashing stock
Was the TiBu backup you restored, rooted? Maybe restoring the backup restored an old version of SuperSU and broke the CF AR version
Might need to go down the TWRP and SuperSU from TWRP recovery route to get it rooted properly if CF AR isn't woprking 100%, which it doesn't for a fair few people
I tried clearing the cache, but that didn't work.
Is there a way to download the stock ROM without having to create an account on the download site?
The Titanium Backup I restored was rooted. Everything was totally fine, until I went back to TB and it suddenly told me I wasn't rooted anymore.
I did try TWRP after I made the original post. I think messed up the device, but I can get in now. I flashed the latest version and booted into Recovery Mode. I clicked on Fix Permissions and possibly one other thing. It let booted farther before the infinite bootloop. It'd show my lock screen and give me 1-2 seconds before rebooting. If I swiped quickly, I could see the home screen with most of my icons gone. Clicked on Apps shows most of the apps are gone. When I removed the SIM card, I stopped getting the infinite bootloop. Here are the list of important programs I have left:
Contacts (all cleared out), Gallery (all present), Messages (all present), My Files (shows files from previously installed programs that I can no longer access), Phone (works when I put the SIM card back in), Settings
Unfortunately, TB and the Play Store are both gone. I might be able to install stuff using adb or by copying files over. I haven't tried, but it doesn't look good. I tried reflashing the CF ROM. It didn't change anything. I suspect I may be looking at a factory reset at this point. I'm happy to try any other suggestions.
Thank you.

Wut? lol, just make one, it's free...
XDA does not spoon feed
I created an account and downloaded the stock ROM. I flashed the device and got most of the programs to appear again though the Play Store was still missing. I decided to cut my losses and just do a factory reset. I rooted again and put everything back in place. Now I'm experiencing the problem where I lost root after a day or so of use. I'll start a new thread.
Thanks for your help.
Hi!
I rooted my galaxy s7 edge that had stock version of android 7 (nougat) on it using this tutorial: http://www.droidviews.com/install-twrp-root-galaxy-s7-and-s7-edge-on-nougat-g935fxxu1dplt/. Now when I open built-in camera app it shows me a black screen for few seconds and then it says "Camera has stopped" and it offers me to "Open app again" and "send feedback" And it keeps happening over and over again.
Lemma: The reason is rooting.
Proof: Camera app worked perfectly. After I rooted my phone it started to crash like I described above. Then I tried to force quit camera app and delete it's cache/data. It did not help. After that I wiped entire cache partition. Still no help. After that I wiped all partitions except system. That did not work either. Then I re-flashed unmodified original stock ROM. Then camera worked perfectly again. Then again I rooted my phone the using tutorial I linked above. And again exactly the same issue. Camera app show black screen for few seconds and then crashes with exact same error message. ∎
Does anyone know fix for that? And why it happens? Is it some kind of samsung's anti-root thing that prevent camera fromworking on rooted phones or what?
Update [SOLUTION]:
In case someone else has same problem.
My solution was to skip restarts in TWRP steps. No restart between format and installing packages. Restart once when everything in TWRP part is done.
Root doesn't break your camera
I just Rooted my G935F that had Nougat as official firmware and had zero problems with the camera.

And how do you explain that after I flashed original rom back, camera started working again?

I have done nothing else than rooting. I have not added any custom mods or anything. For me it starts working again every time I flash original stock rom and shows that black screen and gives error every time I root it.
I downloaded original firmware from here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935F/ (I chose baltic (only 1 occurrence in the table))
Maybe that specific tutorial I linked is bad one? Could anyone check that?
Rooted my G935F and no problems here for me.
I suggest you follow the tutorial here on xda and try again.
Could you post link to tutorial please? Then I could be sure I used the same tutorial as you did.
PS! Now I also noticed that with rooting I lost auto brightness adjusting and also manually changing brightness didnt do anything. Right now I am back on un-rooted rom because I need camera functionality to work. But would love to get it rooted. Is there any info on cf-auto-root and android 7 yet?

A simple search here you'll find all you need. You are the only person I've ever read of that had camera problems like you've stated after Root. Again rooting won't break your camera.
I've Odin to stock literally hundreds of times testing Rom/Mods/themes as a tester for several teams from my s3 up to and including my G935F.
I've also flashed every Rom available for the G935F and the only ones with camera problems are the Lineage or AOSP Roms which more than likely are kernel related. Start here https://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?a=81
Then this
Here's one

Also, posting some specific link rather than general starting point would help to guarantee that I use right tutorial for rooting. From these links you posted I didnt find any specific tutorial. I did search and dig these links, but I didnt find any specific tutorials. All I found was some tools and some roms. But cf-auto-root works for android 6 but I have 7 on my phone so I cant use that and I did not find any rooting tutorials on this forums.
Edit: I have also tried this tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7...overy-official-twrp-hero2lte-3-0-0-0-t3334084 . The same issue. The camera stops working after that.

Ok here is what you need to do.
Download a logcat app and get a logcat of it forceclosing.
I can't magically look in your device and see what, if anything is wrong.
As far as you saying you've searched well if you really did you would've found several tutorials.
How do I know?? Because I've used them myself.
It took me less than 5 minutes to root my new G935F using the TWRP Guide here on XDA
You seem to be the only one in hundreds that's claiming root broke your camera.
Provide a logcat in the Q&A and maybe a dev can help you.

You could try to reset your settings
Same issue on smg935w8 lost camera and screen brightness. Also can't mount micro sd... we're you able to fix? I thought it was a bad root then I re flashed and the issue came back...twrp 3.1.0 supersu 2.79 and no verity 5.1
---------- Post added at 10:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 PM ----------
im re flashing stock and tomorrow ill redo twrp and super su and skip dm verity patch think that might be the issue as it worked before for me last week and i then messed up by turning dev mode off and disabling oem and when i reflashed after that i have been flashing the dm verity patch....
give that a try if your still having issues
had similar issue, my camera app keeps crashing, i went to settings, applications then cleared cache after stopping it, i hope that will fix your camera too

Thanks I've tried clearing cache for everything no luck. I originally thought it was because I might have deleted a system app with titanium but when I reflashed it all (firmware,tarp,supersu,no small verity disable 5.1) I still had the issue.
Lastnight I wiped and flashed the entire firmware. Everything works. Tonight I'm goi g to try and only flash twrp then supersu as I only want root. Hopefully that fixes my issues.
OP have your issues been resolved?
I'll let you know once I get it working on mine and we'll get you sorted out. I believe it's something with the steps or order as I had root fine for a day then had to reflash due to messing around and didn't do it my original way and that caused my issues.
flashed twrp 3.1.0 from odin with auto reboot off.
then booted to twrp. swiped right to mount system,
wipe data(format data) type yes.
mount microsd as mtp copy supersu 2.79 over if its not already on you microsd card.
else just install it from zip
cleared cache/delvik
rebooted to system
log in and setup everything and restore
camera and auto brightness...stilll doesnt work.
ok so after multiple tries to fix this (flash stock) everything works,, root and it breaks tried clearing all cache in system and twrp no difference... then i loaded phone info and used the secret codes to find out that my camera firmware is not installed....so im trying Flashfire to reflash the AP only while injecting supersu and maintaining root.... it is just booting up.....and OMG!!!!it works!!!!
so....for some reason...firmware was corrupting..... no clue why tired multiple methods and nothing... and im not a noob either.....
what finallllllllly worked was.... flash your rom and get root how you would normally. camera/auto brightness/and mounting usb doesnt work....boot to twrp. get your ap md5 file on your internal storage
reboot to system,. get flashfire from playstore or chainfires website
install and then click the + select firmware and select the tar file
only install system....uncheck boot and cp
then in the everroot select injject supersu, preserve recovery
and flash.... it will start flshing and boot to syteem once done..
everything is working nice
finalllyyyy!!!!
hope this can atleast help OP
no clue why i was losing firmware on the flashes
@unit68 Tnx for sharing. This time I got camera and brightness adjustment work out of box. But if in any point of time I happen to need your tutorial, I'll give it a try and let you know.
I am not sure if it is by chance or not but what I did differently this time was:
1) I paid attention to step where it asked to disable auto reboot (can anyone explain why?)
Previously I thought it shouldnt matter so I kept auto reboot for convenience.
2) I did format data, install no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.0 and SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815 and wipe dalvik cache with out rebooting between (Anyone know if that matters?).
Previously I had done it: format - reboot - install no enc - wipe dalvik cache- reboot - install super su - wipe dalvik cache - reboot .
Now I did it format - intall no enc - install super su - wipe dalvik cache - reboot.
I'll see for few days if anything else comes up or if camera breaks down again. Btw @unit68 what happens when you try some bloatware remover that run with root access? Do you get rid of bloatware or not? I tried few of them such as no bloat for example. Some complain that uninstall failed some seem to uninstall the app but when they reload app the app is still there and it's also still in app menu. Just curious if you have the same same issue. And is it safe to delete apk file manually? Or would it cause phone to crash/boot loop? When I ran supersu it complained about knox and asked me to disable it but it never managed to (however root checker tells me I am root). Maybe knox is protecting bloatware? Any ideas?
Flash your able too get it working! It was soooo frustrating. So for Knox supersu asks to disable then seems to hang so I go about my business reopen supersu it'll ask again and then is successful.
To remove bloat I normally just go to titanium and remove the ones I don't want
No issues on that and all my apps that require root work fine (titanium,adaway, flashfire)
This time disabling knox worked too... It turned out that all 3 apps that I used were note able to remove bloatware. App you named worked and also ROM toolbox lite works.
Btw when I google bloatware, the lists are incomplete.... Do you happen to know list of apps that must not be uninstalled? I guess white list would be better idea than black list.
Is installing/uninstalling app same as removing/adding apk files? So that I could cut and paste everything expect file manager and launcher to usb memory stick and then start adding required apps back one by one?
ive seen some samsung debloating software around. i honestly just remove stuff based on manually debloating for last fewyears. if i dont know what theapp is for i google it to see if its ok to remove. normally i remove samsung knox, few other samsung apps, some google apps (music, games, videio), briefings some edge panels, live wallpaper, and carrier branding apps(for me rogers) stuff like that. if you are going to i recommend you do a backup first as it ccan mess up your phone if you uninstall an important app. . also once your do uninstall you need to reboot ... the paid version of titanium allows you to freeze applications so you can try that first before removing it.
I had the exact same issues: camera crashing, blue light filter not working, brightness not working, etc. It was supersu. You need the right version of supersu, it's 2.79 SR0. It's checksum is f4ecbf5814215bf569ff3324fc1c91f5

Interesting..ill check that if I need to to Flash. I have 2.79 but maybe I grabbed an old version or a beta. Mine says 20161205 I think it may have been sr3
Edit _ just checked I grabbed sr0 the stable release from 20161215 not the sr3 beta
Maybe it was corrupt when I flashed
if this not the right section kindly link me to the correct section

Oh, you've downgraded 9.0.0 to 5.1.7 and then updated to 9.0.2
That isn't a good idea... Anyways, let's see how we can help you.
Is your wife's phone rooted and has unlocked bootloader and TWRP? Anything?

Nope its not rotted
And if there is a way to avoid rooting would be better

So it also means the bootloader is NOT unlocked and you don't have a twrp recovery installed?

You can reboot to stock recovery and wipe cache and reboot. Let's see if it works.

I'm sure the issue is cause of down and updating in a dirty way. You can maybe try again install 9.0.0 then 9.0.2
Otherwise a factory reset is the next option you should consider cause there's no way to wipe separate partitions or backup anything with stock recovery and without root or external help.
