Hey, I'm running TWRP 2.5.0.2 [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292565] and after I flashed a new rom [http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?t=2301724] and rebooted TWRP is asking me for a password? Just curious if anyone else has had this problem?
Whenever I don't boot into recovery it says encryption failed. it says to do a factory reset and encrypt the device again.
Edit: I was able to get it working again.
I've seen that before, it was the same time that if I tried to create a nandroid it said there was about 700gb in data. After doing resets and such it would still come back. Only way I got it to go away was by flashing back to stock and re-rooting

Thanks, I'm still getting used to how this phone works. Xperia Play was much easier.

Sorry, I had to do the same [flash back to stock]. Not sure what caused it to happen though.
Use the verw first version of TWRP

twrp 2.6.1.0 is asking for password
Hey guys been reading alot of discussion and threads in this site to figure out how am i gonna solve this issue. I really don't why the twrp is always asking for password. I wipe everything from carrier to dalvik cache and selected factory reset but eventually i am still stock to this password. I did try to revert the version of twrp but it wasn't successful. It says "FAILED" after installation. I haven't use my phone (gt-n7100), i think, for a month because of this. I badly need your expertise guys. Thanks. Hoping to hear from this community.
Just as I enter TWRP recovery, it asks for a password. I clearly remember that I hadn't set any password. But there is another option "cancel". On pressing that button I enter the normal functions of TWRP recovery. The password is not creating any problems but I would like to put up on for security. Any help guys?

Okay here`s the situation.
My GT-P7500 a.k.a p4 is having a problem. Whenever I boot up, it will freeze at the boot animation, and power off if not charging and go to the charging screen if is plugged. I was using SlimBean when I had the problem, flashed AOKP and still the same. Next, when I get to recovery, wiping data takes a looooooooooooong time and never finished (Seriously 3 hours and nothing). Wiping cache`s fine. Tried using TWRP but then I`m stuck on the TWRP Boot screen. I reverted back to CWM but still the same. Is it bricked or something? Is there any solution? I`m hoping for an answer ASAP. Thank you...

had the same issue on my p4wifi...it is a corrupted file.
1) you can odin a rom..this will wipe the data completely
or
2) try to flash the last rom you were successfully on..then wipe the sdcardthis will wipe the data completelyand cache..dalvik. Then try to boot it up.
If second option doesnt work( because of the dirty flash ). Then i would either use odin or push a rom to the device and do a clean install.
Just had a brain storm..you could use twrp file manager to delete files you dont need. Might get lucky and its something you downloaded recently. ( wasnt a twrp recovery when this happened to me )

Hi Gil,
TWRP freezes on its boot screen. I`ll try flashing rom from odin. I`ll get back to you when I`m done. Thanks!

So you cant use twrp's internal file manager...or are you saying you did and that process didnt work. Just wondering..the odin should definitely work. Just sucks to loose all your files..
but as I said... Ive been there too..:silly:

I went around Google searching for p4 ROMs that are in ODIN format. Sadly, nothing found. Where did you get the ROM for your p4wifi?

The question is only one part of the answer grasshopper...How you ask( google ) it, is the rest..Lmao
Here's a Link to sammobile. Just scroll down and pjt in your device in the search box on the right and pich the right firmware. You will need to make a free account with them to download.

Okay, installed stock ROM but now I`m in a bootloop. This time no forced reboot or something, just bootloop.

Just for future reference..when you install a stock rom, like those from sammobile. It is usually needed to wipe data factory reset to get it to boot.
Sorry i didnt get back to you sooner..work is crazy, Lol
Glad you have it up...if you need any other help. Just post in my Q&A thread..I try to check it often.
I bricked my phone.
h850 open bootloader. i tried to format the internal storage. didnt made a backup. now it wants a password and my own one doesnt work. is there any chance to repair it?
thank you in advance!
What wants password? TWRP ?
Try to flash the latest v10e KZD file with LGUP.
on a side note: what will happen when all tries are gone? will it erase it self? there is nothing to loose for me if this is the case?!

I dont know that counter your talking about. After restoring a backup from TWRP I got an issue that it wont accept my pin code to enter the phone. I've followed the steps in this link and it deleted the pin code. I hope this will help you. Please post your result. http://www.howtogeek.com/240657/how-to-fix-pin-errors-after-restoring-from-twrp-android-backups/
Please delete ALL 5 files one by one. It worked for me every time.

just to clarify what i did:
i flashed no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip
i erased userdata and cache in fastboot
i flashed LG-H85010E-Flashable.COMPLETE.zip and FLUENCE_HD24_PATCH.zip
and then my problem(screenshot) occurred

I never ever have seen such a screen
But I would guess that something went wrong when flashing 10E or the patch.
I recommend the following:
- Check if TWRP is still installed
- If yes, format data again
- Re-flash SuperSU or no-verity-opt-encrypt-2.1.zip
- Reboot
If you lost TWRP, you have to flash it again, format data etc.
I've done all the steps you have listed few times but never encountered this problem. Can you even access the TWRP menu? Maybe ask Miustone the developer of HD24? Please tell if you can access the TWRP and your files

after formatting data in TWRP the new screen appears, thanks for that. but the bar in the new screen(screenshot) doesn't change.
the button beneath the bar makes the phone going into recovery and format cache.
repair data after format data did the trick! thanks everyone for the fast help!!! love you all
Hi all,
I recently got a new Axon 7 (A2017U) and wanted to root it just like my old G3. I tried following DrakenFX's instructions (Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/wip-axon-7-root-bootloader-unlokced-t3441204), but I got lost. I ended up with a password being requested at the android startup screen. In a panic, I clicked Format Data when I got back into TWRP, that made it worse and I went into EDL to see if that might help. Eventually I got back into TWRP and that's where I am now, desperately trying to get my new phone working again. All the threads I read only add another layer of confusion. Would someone be willing to walk me through the steps of fixing my phone? I really don't want to RMA/have $400 to go down the drain. I'd own you a big one.

Hi,
so you have access to the TWRP. Thats good. Do you have access to a stock ROM from your manufacturer? In case yes, you could simply flash the stock.
For this, the rom has to be on a SD card or on the internal memory of the phone.
In TWRP go to "Install", than navigate to the file and swipe to install (it comes a zip file).

I'm looking for one. Some threads pointed to an OTA update that ZTE has on their site. However, when I try to install things on TWRP, I get an error about "dev/block/sde14" being read-only. (It sometimes says "sde13" too.)

Dis you go on Advanced
Wipe dalvik-chace
Wipe /cache
Do you have access to fastboot?

I am far from being a pro. I once had the problem that I was caught in bootloop and could not install a new rom. But I was able to re-flash TWRP (via Minimal adb and fastboot) and than everything was fine.
Maybe someone else can comment on that. On your own risk...

I figured haha
I was trying to root my Lenovo P2a42 with TWRP and SuperSU V2.76 but then something went wrong and it wouldn't boot up. I then did an advanced wipe and wiped everything using TWRP and now I have no OS, although I can go into TWRP and the Bootloader. Whenether I try to boot up I get the Bootloader. Now I just want to get it back to normal, I have no backups (Cuz I'm dumb). Please help, thanks in advance.

Yeah I fixed it a few weeks back. I did an advanced reset again then got a stock ROM zip transferred from my pc to my lenovo then flashed it with TWRP. Worked just fine although OTAs no longer work (Too happy to care).
Now, I still want to root my device... If you find a way that works could ya let me know? Thanks.

I still can't root the damn thing, I just don't understand, tried a few different ways and none of them work
So I have a Galaxy S7 Edge and I have been wanting to root for a while now. I've tried to a few times but it's always put me in the bootloop and/or won't boot at all. So I just manually factory reset my phone. (im on my 7th factory reset over the past few days)
The problem is that whenever I go into the TWRP recovery mode, my internal storage and everything else is at 0mb and I get the error that I cannot mount the storage. I've tried changing the file types to ext4 and ext2, but to no avail. I have also read that if you enable pin on start-up then it would work, but that didn't work either. I'm really stuck here and I'm starting to get a little annoyed, as you would.
I'd appreciate any help I can get. I'll provide you guys with any other relevant information. I just want to root my android.
(the first time I tried to root I used a S7 twrp file and it corrupt my system and that's when I first had to factory reset)
EDIT: I am trying to root using Magisk, just in case you guys ask. G935F.
Now whenever I use TWRP (latest one for hero2lte), it just goes into the bootloop. I'm really stuck here.
