so... my phone suddenly wouldn't accept my password anymore to unlock. i tried a couple of things, like deleting the files lockscreen files using TWRP to bypass that... but then it got stuck in a "android is booting" screen and everytime i tried to change my PIN, it would crash.
So i went to TWRP and wanted to reflash my ROM (I was using Resurrection Remix), but then I couldn't decrypt the data because ... the password again wouldn't work. so I finally decided to use sideload to try to flash everything again and it works, but the problem is that even after the factory reset, the phone will boot up but there won't be any images. You can hear the jingle play when you first turn on any android phone... but it's all black.
edit: I've tried flashing two different roms: RR & Lineage OS, both will boot up, but same problem.
I haven't been able to back anything up because... well the OS wouldn't boot up and my TWRP was being wonky and I can't restore anything...
Anyone have any ideas of how to fix this? I feel like i could use the format data and start from scratch... and make it work but then I assume that would wipe my titanium backups, which I haven't been able to extract out. so if anyone has any guidance on how to do that, that would be great. I've tried to use adb to extract stuff out but it hasn't worked and now I can't even do it anymore because I don't have usb debugging on.

have you try to re-flash your TWRP? maybe re-flasing your TWRP will work, also maybe installing the original rom will work, and then you can try to flash whatever rom you desire
as i know doing a factory reset from the TWRP delete all of your files, i mean everything. so i don't think that you still have the backup files
Flash the Official recovery of the oneplus 5 and then install OOS by adb into thé recovery.

Hi, thanks for looking at this.
I have a Galaxy S 4 Google Edition phone. I rooted it, and I have TWRP 2.5.0.2 running on it. I have backed up my system a few times.
I tried flashing a rom of cyanogenmod for the first time today, cm-10.1-20130801-NIGHTLY-jfltexx.zip (http://get.cm/get/jenkins/36550/cm-10.1-20130801-NIGHTLY-jfltexx.zip)
I wasn't having any luck with the boot, so I turned to this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2370101, which utilized a modified updater-script. That still was giving me no dice, so I tried editing the updater-script myself. Cyanogenmod boot-up appears! . . . and then it just keeps spinning. I turn off phone, boot into custom recovery, factory reset phone, try again. Same deal, try it again. Factory reset again, then I try restoring my device so that I can try again with different parameters. TWRP says that the restore is successful. This turns out to be not true, however, as when I reboot, the Google logo shows up, vanishes, and then nothing happens.
This is where I'm stuck. I can boot into TWRP, but that's it. Everytime I try to wipe dalvik or data, it fails. Restores supposedly work, but they don't, no matter if I'm restoring just system, or system data and cache. I have tried mounting my sd card so that I might load another rom, but even though TWRP says "USB Storage Mounted", nothing happens.
I'm completely at a loss here. I simply can't afford to brick a $700 phone. This is crazy.
PLEASE HELP

PROBLEM FIXED!
Yeah. I was trying to unlock my bootloader using Controllerboy's guide, and I managed to install TWRP. I also managed to unlock my bootloader. When I tried to restore my phone using the backup I put on my computer and back to my A7, it won't boot - it's stuck on the "ZTE powered by android" boot screen.
I think that the problem is that when I was copying the backup from my phone to my computer it said "unspecified error" but still let me copy the files (the files and the sizes remained the same) so I just ignored it. Whoops!
So I tried to install CM13 in hope that it will somehow fix things, and unsurprisingly everything is still the same.
So. What do I do? I think that the problem was that I backed-up system and tried to restore system (probably).
Anyone got a solution? Or even a system restore that will cure my phone?
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
I managed to solve the problem myself by re-wiping dalvik and installing CM 13! Odd that it worked this time and not the other time I tried it, but at least it works
Hi Guys,
Hoping someone can help and tell me that Ive not bricked my brand new S7 edge
I have experience in rooting / flashing a number of android devices so I was quite confident in what I was doing.
So I was trying to root my stock rom, I flashed TWRP using Odin which worked fine then I flashed the Super SU. When I booted it then asked for a PIN to boot, it definitely wasn't what I set and would have only set it to 1 thing. So I did some googling and found that I could clear data or remove the pin key files but in TWRP it couldnt mount data and I tried re-formatting but it sat there for over half an hour and I had to hard reboot. TWRP now just freezes at the splash screen during boot which confuses me cause even if I switched off during re-formatting, I was only on the userdata so surely that shouldnt affect TWRP? I then got to the stage where I thought entering the max PIN attempts would just wipe data but no it tried to boot into TWRP which is useless cause it doesnt get past the splash screen.
I can still get into Odin mode, is there something else I can try flash? I had tried reflashing TWRP before but it was still freezing at the splash screen
I thought of maybe wiping data over adb but I dont think I can do that unless the phone boots or gets fully into TWRP?
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks

Okay, so usually I'm quite savvy when it comes to technology, but this one's stumping me.
Yesterday afternoon, I turned my phone off to go into work. It was working quite normally before then. When I get on break, however, I find that my phone won't get past the main logo. I figure that my phone needs a reflash, so today I went to reflash the xXx rom. Still no luck. I tried flashing stock OOS Beta 3, but then my phone went into a recovery bootloop. I tried flashing those two roms several times, but now my phone just stays in a recovery bootloop.
I'm pretty sure this isn't software-related, but I want to be wrong. That's why I'm posting here first, just in case it isn't.
I didn't do anything for it to go into a bootloop, I just turned it off after a normal day, and now it won't turn back on.
If you are decrypted you need to flash the no verify zip for OOS to boot up. With xXx anything from the version of Magisk used to one of the mods you chose in the aroma installer can cause problems. Your best bet is to boot into TWRP, format the data on your phone using the option in the wipe tab, connect your phone to a computer--it will be recognized like an external harddrive--copy and paste a full ROM zip for stock OOS Oreo onto your phone and then flash it with TWRP. Also make sure you are using one of the recommended versions of TWRP for OOS Oreo. The best version right now is the one from Codeworks. Good luck.
I i had to reflash the firmware the correct one TB-X104F_S000024_180930_ROW_DCC. Anyway it wasn't booting at all before i flashed. Now it boots, shows the logo etc and constantly says Encryption unsuccessful!, so i reset it and factory reset it but nothing changes.
I have no idea where else to go, bootloader is locked and all i can do is flash the firmware. Would there be a way to remove this from the files within the firmware?. It seems like android is there in the background but i can't get away from that encryption unsuccessful screen!
Sorry if none of this makes sense.
Yo. I got the same tablet bro. Been trying to figure out a custom recovery for her. A stock ROM would be great to have and I haven't been able to find one anywhere. Might I inquire as to where you found yours? It would be a huge relief to know I can fix it if I break it lol.

If you download the Lenovo MOTO smart assistant from Lenovo support it has a resque option. I also used that to root my tb-x104f. It downloads the original everything and if you take the boot image from the file it downloads and replace it in one that has been modified from magisk it will rescue it and you will have root also thatd what I did with mine
same problem here, reflashed with stock rom. and not resloved

Did you fix this issue?
I am having the same problem.
Thanks
Same problem here (my error reads "Decryption unsuccesful", but I think it's the same as yours).
After a few tries, I believe that it is a problem with the internet connection. After the factory reset, if I skip the wifi connection step, it starts normally. And it is completely usable. I can load pdf documents or apks by the usb from a computer and it runs correctly. But whenever I try to set the wifi connection, it updates something and it causes the tablet that the next time I turn it off, I find the error on the picture when turning on. It asks for a password and no matter which password you enter, then it delivers this message.
In resume, right now it is a completely functional tablet if you NEVER connect it to the internet and load anything you need via usb or bluetooth.
I tried to reset it with Lenovo Smart Assistant, but the result is the same.
I am looking for custom roms to try if it's something about the stock rom, but I haven't found any. Can anyone reccomend me a rom for Lenovo E10 X104F 2GB?
Solution: (Worked for me)
Format Data as F2FS in TWRP. (Advanced Wipe)
Then reboot and wait.
