so I accidentally wiped the entire phone and tried to install chroma rom. Now after boot I'm getting an "Encryption Unsuccessful" message. and its asking me to reset phone.
I tap the Reset Phone button and I am taken to TWRP where it asks for a decryption password. I enter "default_password" and the phone reboots with the same issue. Please Help
Wipe data and reflash. I had the same problem.

I am having the same issue, after I did a factory reset. My device will boot into the AT&T setup screen but the settings menu crashes and I cant get out of it.

I am having a very similar issue as well. I have the Sprint version - SPH-L720 - and I rooted it using Motochopper. Everything was fine and great and wonderful, but after I downloaded and installed a font installer from the play store, it seems to be softbricked. I can get into Download mode and Recovery mode just fine. I have wiped the phone twice now -- but every time I just try to wipe the cache, it says there is an error and reboots.
I applied the Chainfire Auto-Root too (successfully) and it still stays stuck on the Sprint screen.
I'm guessing I won't be able to fix this issue until the firmware is leaked... but I am crossing my fingers and hoping that someone has a solution sooner.
Since the last update still can't do a wipe cache
A few little things were acting up on my phone, so I decided to reflash and start anew. The only big hiccup is that my phone was encrypted.
Through TWRP, I have performed a Factory Reset, which was unsuccessful. I then went through Format Data to remove the encryption:
Format Data will wipe all of your apps, backups, pictures, videos, media, and removes encryption on internal storage. This cannot be undone. Press back to cancel. Type yes to continue.

This unfortunately did not do a thing, even after rebooting recovery before I flashed the rom. I am prompted for my encryption password during pre-boot. I've tried various backups that I still have (including the original from when I got my device); sometimes the password is accepted, other times I am prompted to continuously try again. When the password is accepted, I am stuck with a blank screen; after a few seconds, my phone vibrates once, then after a few seconds more, it vibrates multiple times, like when an app crashes. These restores do apply; the boot animations and Samsung logo change based on which backup I tried.
As long as I can get to a state where I can flash new roms and boot without the encryption prompt, I don't mind having to root again, losing internal data (which should've happened above), or having to reconfigure everything (that's half the fun).
adb and TWRP are still functional. I'm downloading the stock recovery and factory images to give them a try as well, though the download is crawling and it will be some time before I can test it.
Has anyone else successfully solved this?
Edit: Solved.Flashed all factory images, performed a factory reset, re-rooted, set up TWRP again, and got back to a current rom. For anyone else who runs into this in the future, I had to use the stock recovery, not CWM or TWRP, to successfully wipe my device.
I have a 306sh and got it fully rooted with TWRP installed. Today i was messing around in rom toolbox and disabled tthe following: Phone, Phone Storage, And Messaging because i currently don't have the phone activated. After a reboot I am faced with a never ending stream of pop ups "Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped" and "Unfortunately, Phone has stopped".And then I do wipe data/factory resetwipe cache partition.But unfortunately, stay in the boot screen, enter the system failure. Thank you all in advance.

Dear All,
please help.
I am using Nexus 5
My device is already rooted and unlocked.
Yesterday, I wiped all the data using TWRP.
in TWRP, i chosed the advanced wipe, i checked all the items and wipe it.
When I tried to reboot it but its written, there is no os installed.
I ignored it and reboot it, and its stuck with google logo.
I force shut it down.
Now, I can't even turn it on.
Please help. I really don't know what should I do and what I have to do.
Thank you
please help~
I seem to be unable to turn off encryption on my Nexus 7.
I have the PIN and can boot fine into recovery as well as the ROM but I can't get rid of encryption and the PIN.
I have tried:
1. Factory resetting from within the ROM
2. Wiping internal storage, cache and dalvik cache from TWRP
Any other ideas?
Really at the end of my rope how to get rid of this ...
Have you tried re-flashing the google factory images?

Yup. That was the only way to turn encryption off.
Very annoying.
So you managed to turn the encryption off?
