My x727 fails to encrypt itself. After the reboot it did not start the encryption but got stuck for several hours.
Has anyone managed to encrypt the phone? Thank you.
(On my phone, Magisk v8, TWRP, PHH's Superuser and xposed is installed.)
Now that more people have the phone and more ROM versions (including first custom ROMs) are available: has anyone managed to encrypt the phone?
(Device encryption is very important to me because my employer does not allow me to connect an unecrypted phone to the firm network. Therefore, the phone is currently almost useless to me.)
Thanks!
I suppose x727 data partition it's already factory encrypted because during unlocking tests some users said the device asks for a key.
I have now managed to encrypt the phone with the latest ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/le-pro3/how-to/5-9-020s-update-x720-t3506829
are you using airwatch ?
Anytime I try and flash a rooted stock ROM I get the encryption unsuccessful warning and asked me to reset it. That doesn't work. Ican Flash Resurrection Remix any other those kind of ROMs works fine. How do I fix the encryption unsuccessful warning and get rid of that so I can Flash a rooted stock ROM. Can anyone please help me with that?
Hey guys, i just bought the phone and flashed zips immediately But have a question as i've never encrypted my phones till now(it's forced). So i'm on stock kernel and latest 4.5.14 Nolimits rom. Now I want to install xposed, bluspark kernel and remove the encryption from my device(i read something like a dm-verity disabler). Which order and method I should chose to flash those ? I saw something about decyrpted device in the first page of the rom's aroma installer and an option for the xposed but not sure and i don't want any bootloops
Thanks!
I tried all methods which are there on site but each time same and only problem is coming that is my phone is not getting rooted correctly I tried so many times but when I'll check with root checker it says it's not rooted but I successfully unlocked bootloader but I can't complely root it, can someone help me?
What device do you have and what ROM are you running?
If you're rooting on the stock Motorola ROM, do you have TWRP flashed/booted, then flashed ElementalX? Afterwards, what root managers are you using? You could try magisk 16 or 15.3. However, if you've previously used SuperSU or another root manager, you may have to re-flash the original stock kernel (then flash ElementalX then root) to remove any remainders of the old root managers, else they may interfere with magisk to the point of the root not being stable.
I have Moto g4 plus XT 1643 and I tried to root with by using twrp latest version and lineage os 14.1 athene. The was working fine but my phone is still showing that this device is not rooted

What root manager are you using? The official Lineage OS (as of Jan 2017) does not come with a root manager, you must download and flash your own. You could either use the Lineage_SU_addon (you'd want the arm variant for 14.1) or magisk or SuperSU as a root manager.
I am new in this so I don't know that much details so can you help me by giving me link so that I can go through step by step and try to do what you are saying

1)Download the Lineage SU addon (from here https://download.lineageos.org/extras - you want the arm 14.1 zip) OR magisk (from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445 ) Only download one, please and if you want to switch, you ideally want to restore your backup or dirty flash the custom ROM to restore the Lineage kernel.
2)Reboot your device to TWRP.
3)In TWRP backup your device. Keep this backup safe.
4)In TWRP, go to 'Install' and flash the package you downloaded.
5)Wipe cache and Dalvik in TWRP after the flash.
6)Reboot.
7)Verify you have root.

Hi I'm new to XDA Forums, I was searching for posts about rooting my Moto g4 Plus. I would like to know Why we should flash a kernel before flashing SuperSU or Magisk ? Nb: I just only want the root access. Not in a plan to flash a custom rom. Thanks in Advance.

The stock Motorola kernel in stock Nougat ROMs appears to have anti rooting measures included (I think DM Verity?) If you attempt to root on this stock Nougat kernel, you'll likely soft brick/bootloop your device.
A custom kernel (e.g. elementalX v2.0.1 for stock) does not have these anti rooting defences, so it's safer to root with magisk. I would recommend magisk as super SU hasn't been updated in some time.
It appears that this need to flash a custom kernel before rooting applies to Nougat stock ROMs; marshmallow stock ROMs and the Oreo soak test stock ROM appear not to require a custom kernel.
As an aside, custom kernels and root are not necessary to flash custom ROMs. The only tools you require are an unlocked bootloader and the correct TWRP. The kernels included with these custom ROMs may also have anti rooting measures disabled, so it's safer to directly root without having to use a custom kernel.
Hi
I need some help
I was stock yesterday
Folowed the guide on firts post and managed to OEM unlock, activate developer, debuging on etc,flash vbmeta, then flashed lineage recovery, then i could not istall rom for lack know how, then i flashed twrp over lineage recovery.
