Did you enable "OEM unlock" in Developer Options before rooting as advertised?
Flash twrp and wipe all without SD. Reboot recovery.

First out of all. You posted it in the exactly same place.
Second. Here is my answer from You other thread:
Does it say something like crypto footer or data invalid size or something like that? If it does then You have to format data, not wipe. Or else it won't work.

No says nothing , just internal memory 0 all folders subfolders are empty , but when I boot normally all files are there ( by formatting I'll loose all data?) What's the difference in wipe and format dont they both delete all data?

Format will work. You will lose all your stuff so backup whats important. The difference is what you checkmark in wipe. You gotto lose all data for TWRP to work.

Wiping data only wipes data partition.
Formating data removes every single file in internal storage and all files in data partition.
You have to format data in order to get twrp to work.

I encrypted my OnePlus 2 running on Unofficial Resurrection Remix Latest build of 23rd July 2017. Ever since then I am not able to decrypt my device, the option in Settings-> Security-> Encryption is not clicking and just showing the status as Encrypted (SS attached).
Can someone guide me on how do I decrypt my device?
EDIT:
Got it decrypted.
Format data from Settings doesn't work. So here's what you can do.
Steps
1 - Backup your entire device (Apps+App Data+Internal Storage)
2 - Go to TWRP->Wipe->Format data->Yes (Type 'yes') & Done.
3 - Now reboot and then copy paste your internal storage.
The only way to decrypt is a full wipe

Hi,
ive just followed the flashable oreo TWRP thread in here to test out Oreo.
My device is S8 G950F
link -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...1-10-flashable-oreo-twrp-dump-beta-2-t3703083
After that TWRP didnt recognized my data partition anymore...:crying::crying:
So i installed latest TWRP in Odin again (had 3.1.1 before 3.2.0.0 after) - didnt helped.
Ive done a full restore with odin after i downloaded the firmware via samfirm, this is the exact firmware number ive used:
G950FOXM1AQJ5_CL12401979_QB15459675_REV00_user_low_ship
Still no success
I also tried flashing supersu (2.82) and dm-verifity (v.6.0).
Any ideas?
Is it just the partition table in twrp that needs to be updated or some stupid thing i forgot?
Regards

Ok yeah it'll format whole internal storage.
You need to change the partition type of /data to f2fs and then change it back to ext4. Then two recognize /data again

It's not format.
Go to wipe, advanced wipe, repair or change partitions ,select data, select change partition type, select f2fs slide to continue.
Then do the same with data and change back to ext4.

I have done this and it works but as soon as i reboot and go back to twrp it doesnt recongize /data am i doing something wrong
after so many tests I discovered that twrp can read and write data only if you flash last supersu beta, magisk and supersu official both doesn't work:

Sounds like your internal storage is encrypted and you see cryptic named folders that are empty. You can check the "decrypt data"

Actualy i'm facing an other problem, I restore everything to stock, i unlock bootloader, flash twrp, i boot on twrp, just after without booting on the system. And immediately on the first boot i come back to the stock recovery.
It never happen before ..
On my first boot in twrp when i select storage, 'internal storage' is at 0Mb and in the log i got
Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer
Failed to mount /data (invalid argument)
Unable to mount storage ...

After flashing twrp you need to flash magisk or a custom kernel so the twrp won't be restored to stock recovery. Seems like you missed some steps on the instructions to root your device.

If you format internal storage it's nothing shown for sure, that's the purpose of format. After that you can install lineageos along with gapps from USB otg for example.
For DECRYPT data you should not format unless you backed up all to your pc!

Ok, I found the solution.
Format and change file system of the SD card inside the twrp, after that mount it in PC, restore the files, and it will be ok.
So... Me being used to the older partition layout style on my Galaxy S5, I switched to a new ROM from MIUI (as I wanted to try how it feels like). In all of that. I forgot that I have to back everything up from my internal storage as it will be encrypted (who thought this was a good idea?). It's been 2 days now of me fighting with the phone, TWRP & OrangeFox yet to no avail. I supposedly am decrypting the /data partition as both recoveries accept the password I had set for my lockscreen, yet they still complain that they can't mount /data & that they're unable to mount storage. The issue is, that even though the recoveries are accepting the password, Android itself doesn't... No matter if I try my lockscreen password, my SIM card PIN or even default_password, none of them seem to work. I have an external sdcard in my phone, to which I do get access through MTP in TWRP/OrangeFox yet even after flashing stuff like Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt etc. the internal storage is still being encrypted & I have no idea what to do. I found a command online that supposedly pulls the files from the internal storage & packs them into a nice .img file in EXT4 format, but when I do that, it seems to gather data for eternity (I have a 128GB phone, but come on, I only had like 35-40GB of data on it) where as for the person that I got the command from, it was just 6GB. When I try to open the .img file, it says that it's corrupted etc. & doesn't let me open it. I am now running out of options & have no idea what to do; I don't want to lose pictures from my phone, as I had some very important ones on there, that I just simply can't lose. Is there any help?
This is what I get in command prompt when I input my password through it:
D:\adb>adb shell twrp decrypt <mypasswordhere>
Attempting to decrypt data partition via command line.
Data successfully decrypted, new block device: '/dev/block/dm-0'
Updating partition details...
...done
Unable to mount storage
But as I said, /data & internal storage are still shown as empty

The wrong thing with this method is that I CAN NOT boot into Android to copy over files because it asks me for a password before the lockscreen shows up... When I try to put in my password, it doesn't accept any & gives me a warning that my data will be wiped after I fail to get the right password after a few tries
Welp, I used the command 'adb pull /dev/block/dm-0 ./decrypted-data.img' to pull everything from the phone, but at this phone I don't even know if the file will have anything in it or if it's just empty & I lost all my important pictures for ever... Now I just gotta find a way to mount that image under Linux (or Windows), altough that will be a pain as that's a partition image, not just a regular one :crying:

Simply upgrading MIUI should not result in anything like this. Millions of people do that, without any trouble. What exactly was the ROM that you had before, and what exactly is the ROM that you replaced it with?

I was on Xiaomi.eu's MIUI, wanted to flash Pixel Experience ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3930709 ) to try it out. After formatting cache, Dalvik, data & system I flashed PE. After it booted up after a few seconds, it showed me the screen to input my password & make emergency calls. I tried putting in 3 different passwords, yet none of them worked. Now, after 2 days of struggling & almost giving up on everything, I managed to pull the data from the internal storage (I hope the file has content in it), wiped everything from my phone & installed PE again...
You should flash again same rom (which you use before flashing new one)

If you did format data (instead of just wiping it), then your internal storage is already gone - formatting data also wipes the internal storage. So, did you format data or did you just wipe it?
BTW: if you formatted data, then it would be wholly unusual to be asked for a password to decrypt the phone.

From TWRP/Orange Fox
Format Data (type yes)
Reboot recovery
Do a full wipe then install your Rom/Gapps etc
Reboot System.

I think that unfortunately the only way is to format data. Remember to make always a backup before installling roms. Every time you make a clean flash there is the issue with the password request as a workaround I noticed that if I install magisk just after the rom without rebooting to system the password is not requested
