Hi,
sorry if that question has been already answered, but I cannot find an clear answer
I need to encrypt my cell phone, however each time I try I get an error telling that the encryption
did not finished correctly, and my cell phone is corrupteur and need to Factory reset
Is there a 7.1.2 Rom that exists with encryption working ?
if not do you know if a 6.x Rom exist that's support encryption.
Many thanks for your help.
I finely found a way to have ZUK Z1 encrypted under 7.1.2.
Below steps used:
Factory restore using All in One tool
Flash TWRP Official 3.0.2
Using TWRP installation of a 6.0 ROM
After boot and setup, enter Preference/Security/Encrypt
At this point ZUK Z1 appears encrypted
The issues are that under TWRP unable to mount or see files
I flashed lineage and open_gapps using the “adb sideload” option.
After a reboot, ZUK Z1 appears as encrypted
For the time being all is working fine, except the fact that TWRP cannot mount the device, because it’s encrypted. I guess that’s an issue with TWRP itself. I don’t know if a version exists to fix this ….
I tried to do it same way with several 6.0 ROMs still available here (a lot of dead links...) but each try using device encryption ends with an
automatic reboot and back to welcome screen without encryption.
At the moment I am using TWRP 3.1.0 (comming fomr 3.0.2) with 7.1.2 Nuclear ROM.
Any ideas? Device Encryption is important for me.

The 6.0 ROM that's worked for me was " Temasek-20160217-NIGHTLY-ham "
Make sure you fully factor restore using the All In One tool
boot your phone on V5 and setup your cell phone account
Then using TWRP install V6 ROM with the Temasek one.
then Encrypt your phone .... that's should work ok
then us "adb sideload" to inject the V7 Lineage ROM
Let me know at which step you are stuck !
Hey, sorry for long delay ...
It will work up to "Temasek-20160217-NIGHTLY-ham", flashing AOSP 4.6 (Android 7) by sideload will cause "Password wrong" problems while booting
decrypting data partition. Still hope to get a way working zu install AOSP 5.1 (Android 8.1) with full encryption. Tried TWRP 3.02 and newer 3..2.1.
no worry about "password", I already installed nightly build of Lineage without issues using sideload.
Of course I got the message about password, I just ignore it
the only point is that I had to install TWRP V2.8.7 and not 3.x. because with 3.x sometimes I was not able
to boot recovery mode.
Before each install I fully backup my cell phone in case of .... SMS, Pictures etc...
Good luck,
The problem is not the password while starting to recovery 3.x.x, its the password while booting...
1. Factory restore using All in One tool (okay, works)
2. Setup Phone and encrypt (works, okay - Password will be accepted)
3. Flash TWRP (3.02 / 3.2.1.0) - tried both (okay, works - Password for encryption Recovery will not be accepted
4. I skip that and sideload flash (clearing cache etc.) "Temasek-20160217-NIGHTLY-ham.zip" (okay, Recovery = not, While Booting = Password accepted) (I choosed PIN and something like : OfferMe#1963ZU several times)
5. I skip Password in Recovery and sideload flash (clearing cache) "lineage-14.1-20180124-nightly-ham-signed.zip" (okay, Recovery still not, While Booting = Password NOT accepted)
Seems no matter if Lineage ROM 14.1 or higher...
Still confused
I am not using password at boot. I only set a password to unlock the phone after boot.

Hi All
I upgraded my Note 3 (HLTE 9005) from CM11 latest snapshop to the latest CM12 nightly.
I did full wipe before installing CM12.
My device was encrypted when using CM11 and on CM12 I did not make any change on the encryption (password etc)
On CM12 in the Security page I can see that the device is listed as encrypted.
This all is good, however I have an issue if I restart phone in recovery then I am unable to decrypt the device.
Error I get is that The password is incorrect.
Surprisingly if I now restart the phone then the phone starts properly in CM12 - without having to enter the password to decrypt the device.
So essentially I am not able to use TWRP anymore but can use CM12.
I am not sure what is wrong here or what I should do to get TWRP working again.
Any help - will be much appreciated!!
Thanks

Goto Settings->Security->Screen Lock and select Password. Enter you Password and you should be prompted with an option to require password at boot, select that. Reboot into recovery and try again.
Same issues?
Heya,
I decided to nuke my beloved OP2 and start anew, this time including encryption. As I read in the encryption Q&A, the device should not be rooted when doing the encryption, as this can cause havoc.
If you want, you can skip the Italic part. Lets just say, all went well until I rebooted into recovery after setting my encryption password.
- I wiped everything, installed Oxygen OS 3.0.1, flashed the TWRP recovery image (which was recommended in the "how to install oxy 3 on OP2" guide. So it should be a compatible version).
- I boot up my phone and go to the android security settings. I put my phone on the charger and let it encrypt my system with the on-board encryption function. Everything goes well, device reboots fine, now encrypted.
- I went to the security settings again to set my password. I check "ask this password before booting". Now that the encryption is dealt with, I want to have my device rooted. I boot up into TWRP and, as expected, TWRP asks for the password that I just configured.
BUT TWRP won't accept my password, telling me it was wrong. I tried several times, checked that I didn't mess it up because of a foreign language (english) keyboard. When I rebooted the device, it accepted my password on the first try, booting normally afterwards.
I went into the security settings and chose a pattern instead of a password, to make sure the keyboard wasn't the cause of the failure. When booting into TWRP, it asks about my pattern now. But it doesn't accept it.
So I went back into the security settings and unchecked the "ask pattern before boot" part, hoping that TWRP might not need the pattern anymore. When I boot into TWRP now, it asks for a password again, although I have enabled a pattern only.
I rooted my devices several times already, without any problems. This is the first time that I use encryption, so I have no Idea what could be the cause of this problem. It just seems that TWRP has problems decrypting the OxyOs. Please keep in mind that I used the TWRP image that was recommended for OxyOS 3.0.1 in the official Oneplus Forum install guide, so it should be compatible with all the Software and Hardware.
Now that I can't access anything with my TWRP, I haven't installed my SuperSU yet. I can't see how I can gain root access without using TWRP. If I rooted the device first and then encrypted it, the TWRP problem would not matter, but that's exactly the thing that causes HAVOC.
Looking forward to ideas
Fennec
Edit: My progress:
- tried adb sideload the supersu.zip over the stock recovery (update from usb). Protocol error. Installation failed.
- tried all kinds of TWRP versions, starting at the newest 3.0.2. TWRP 3.0.2 claims to have solved the encryption issue, but when flashed I get a bootloop whenever I try to enter the recovery.
- I realized that my adb sideload failed because I used an old version of adb which I found on my laptop. The newest version managed to sideload the supersu and the xposed framework, giving me root rights. TWRP still does not work but at least I got root now :/
same: TWRP can not decrypt system partition on One Plus One, CM-13 and TWRP 3.0.2-0
I remember TWRP said: installation was not successful although it can boot into recovery...
Try fastboot official twrp-3.0.2-2 for me is working fine.
Remember to boot in recovery after flash

Hello all, I unlocked my nexus 4 installed TWRP ( tried several versions) currently 3.0.3 and now TWRP bootloops..
Any thoughts or fixes for this ?
I added a screen capture, " could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer" unable to mount storage, etc.
Did you try 2.87? Is the phone encrypted?
I haven't tried 3.0.3, but 3.0.2 works flawlessly on my N4, with device encryption.
TWRP seems to be failing at decrypting your data partition.
Does Android boot in normal mode?
I will try 3.0.2 and report back... thanks for the help!
precisely yesterday i was in the same situation when i was trying to downgrade to 4.4.4 oem.... i fix it installing other recovery, recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.7-mako http://www.4shared.com/zip/6v3Z7Ghrba/recovery-clockwork-touch-6047-.html
but i install in MAC, in windows i don´t know if is the same process, i was follow this video about how to unlock bootloader in mac
when i install the recovery and enter in fastboot, i put in restart, it will request for fix (yes or no, you choose) the root, i choose NO, and the nexus 4 wake up again in the Cooked Rom, so i try again downgrade :fingers-crossed:
hope it work for u like me
I have a US Oneplus2 that is stuck on the animation when it boots. I can get into TWRP and Fastboot, latest TWRP works and can also use an older version that I had.
I made a TWRP backup that I pulled off onto another computer. I then installed OOS 3.5.1 (I think) to do some testing. Once I was done testing, I decided I wanted the latest lineage as my backup was a 6 month old version of the latest at that time. I used TWRP to wipe the data, cache, and system to then install the latest Lineage 14.1 11/24/17 and gapps mini and micro (tested both). It gets to the lineage boot animation and the ball goes back and forth forever. I have left it over night and it's still going. I have rebooted the device, installed lineage several times, moved to 12/1/17 today with the same results.
After messing with it for hours and days, I decided to just put the TWRP backup back on the phone and then update from there. Well... my custom animation is load but the animation is also going forever.
Looking for some help on what might be wrong with the phone, thanks.
Make sure everything is formatted as ext4 and update firmware to 3.6.1 just to rule it out.
I would use the latest twrp.
I go to format tick all the boxes and clear everything then go to reboot > recovery. Once back in twrp copy the ROM and gapps across from pc install ROM and gapps together, wipe cache and dalvik reboot.
I'm in the process of doing that now.
The TWRP that I'm using is 3.1.1-0 which looks to be the latest. I am working with OOS 3.5.8 but will look at downloading 3.6.1. I am working to get Lineage 14.1 on there once everything is stable.
I ran into another weird is when using the qualcomm recovery tool:
My method is to enable ADB, enable OEM Unlock, enable Advanced Reboot.
Reboot into fastboot
Fastboot oem unlock: is successful
Fastboot reboot
I then go through renabling ADB and Advanced Reboot, OEM Unlock is still enabled.
I then reboot into fastboot
Fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.1.1-0-oneplus2.img
This completes successfully and then I fastboot reboot.
I have tried several times to get into TWRP but I keep getting the stock recovery.
I have tried to reflash recovery but nothing ever changes.
Is there possibly something wrong with the OEM unlock that says it was successful?
How do I go about troubleshooting this?
Ok, I fixed that and install OOS 3.6.1 and then was able to install TWRP 3.1.1-0.
I then wanted to install Lineage 14.1:
I then formatted Cache, System, Data, Dalvik... everything but internal. Should I wipe internal as well?
I copied over linage 14.1 and open_gapps for the same build micro.
I now am back to getting the Lineage Boot animation.
Thanks for helping since I'm trying to get Lineage to boot.

Internal doesn't really matter to be honest, did you check they data and system are formatted as ext4.
It is in twrp advanced wipe options.
Did it ever boot ?
I did doubt check the data and system are formatted as ext4.
I let it sit for 3-4 hours and didn't see any progress.
Try a different rom. There are a lot of lineage based roms around.
I tried that and am getting the same results. Even if I flash a full TWRP backup from a time when I had it known to be working it happens.
I've tested this with 3 different roms now. My latest attempt has been to update TWRP to 3.2.1 and then install lineage 14.1 20171208. I also tested with Paranoid and Carbon because they were near the top of my list not because I know anything about them.
The phone just never gets past the boot animation. If I reboot to recovery is there a log I can pull to see what the issue is?
Thanks
Would like to see if anyone has any thoughts. If I run OOS I can use the phone but as of right now I can't use any other rom.
Is there any advanced fastboot or wipes that can be done to get it to boot. Is there any type of debugging that will show me what's happening when it tries to boot.
Just trying to bump this, I really need a way to debug this problem. Besides running OOS, I have a feeling this device is bricked and the mega unbrick guide doesn't work.
Also looks like if I try to put Kali on top of the base 3.5.8, the phone goes into the animation loop. So any change after OOS on the device puts it into an animation loop.
Is there a way the system or boot locked? Even thought I can TWRP anything onto the phone without errors.
Hey!
I've got the same issue it seems, phone just sticks to boot animation when flashing any other ROM than OOS 3.6.1.
Any update?
EDIT :
problem was with the persist.img
Flashed a different firm file and it was resolved

OOS does not refuse to boot if a mountable partition is corrupt. This is not the case with lineage. If a mountable partition is corrupt and the corresponding fstab entry does not allow lineage to format and somehow mount it then init never proceeds
Try flashing this file: https://glassrom.botstack.host/firmware/oos-3.6.1-firmware-signed.zip and try again
Note that this file reboots the device after the flash is done so don't use twrp queue to flash this file. Flash this file last

Alternatively this is a method I don't recommend to beginners because they accidentally give twrp logs to devs without realising it
You can get logs by making the forcing the device to "crash" through the power button
Here's how it's done: you boot the non-booting ROM and wait for about a minute. Then press power + volume down while it's on the bootanimation. You have to hold it until you see the oneplus logo and boot to twrp
TWRP's kernel will recover the last booted kernel's log from ram and place it in /sys/fs/pstore
First you have to open the log yourself to check if it's valid. The file is console-ramoops-0. All other log files in that location are invalid for your specific issue
Now for an ordinary user this is hard. They can't tell if the log is a recovery log or a ROM log. Since we're dealing with official lineageos we assume selinux would be enforcing
You want to search for this string "permissive=1". On Linux just do cat console-ramoops-0 | grep "audit" (quotes are part of the command)
If you're on windows then you can download Linux and get the logs. Stop bothering me
If you see the string "permissive=1" in the log you have accidentally fetched a recovery log
Go back and boot again and wait for about a minute if selinux is permissive
The string should read
"permissive=0"
That means selinux is enforcing and this is indeed a ROM log
Send this log here
Hello,
Was this problem ever solved? I am experiencing the very same thing with every single ROM i have tried so far. TWRP is installed, I can install all ROMS but when I try to boot the phone, it just won't get passed the booting animation.
Thank you
I'm on MIUI 12, I'm not able to install TWRP recovery properly.. internal storage is encrypted.. not able to flash anything. anyone has a solution ? thanks in advance !

When, entering TWRP, it asks you for PIN/password.
You have to enter your pin/password you have defined in Android for unlocking the screen.
TWRP must then confirm that it successfully decrypted for user 0 (for user 999 it would fail, do not wory about)
This is really nothing new, but you must not use an outdated TWRP that does not ask or does not support it properly
If having problems, reboot to Android and reset your pin/password.
Some TWRP versions may not support properly if you use pattern in Android - hence better switch to pin.
However, if you cannot make it with pin, reboot again to Android, redefine to pattern and try

i have tried, i swiped to allow modification but it does not asked for password, goes straight in recovery mode & i can not access my files from there, i also tried removing password completely to unlock phone but still got the same issue.. i have heard that files are encrypted on android 11, so i posted this question..
thank you

Make sure you use the latest official TWRP for davinci
Which "notifications" - it's about Passwords and Security in Android. You can try by removing Android unlock pin/pass, reboot to Android and set it again and then try with TWRP.
Again, make sure you use up-to-date TWRP, best the official
twrp-3.5.2_9-0-davinci.img (if you were not familiar with and TWRP does not ask, maybe you are on an ancient and maybe some unofficial TWRP)
HI, I updated to V12.1.4.0.RFJMIXM and tried to install the latest TWRP but booting into recovery mode TWRP is in this like read only mode and dosnt bring up the usual thing to decrypt your files. It says unmodified system partition. Keep system read only? TWRP can leave your system partition unmodified to make it easier for you to take official updates. TWRP will be unable to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP and will not offer to root your device. Then it says keep read only or swipe to allow modifications. Any suggestions? Tried removing and adding security pin but didnt work
I need it to install magisk. I tried patching a recovery image with magisk which worked. But trying to boot to magisk with recovery dosnt work. I hold the keys and then when it vibrates let go but it always goes to stock recovery. Not system with magisk as it talks about.

This seems like a bootloop. Did you change any roms before this happened? You might have to format (not wipe) your data partition which unfortunately will also delete all your files from the phone's internal storage.
