[Q] I9300 decrypt on boot (password field limit)

Galaxy S3 I9300 International stock with all last updates (seems to be 4.1.1).
I've just wanted to use one password for data encryption and separate pin for unlocking, so I followed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35514297&postcount=24
I've issued
Code:
vdc cryptfs enablecrypto inplace
yep.. with 21 character password, so it won't fit to password field on boot, because field was limited to 16 characters. I know I'm fool and wanted too much lol.
How I see future steps:
1. Attempt to flash CM (does CM have this stupid limit? I have no other device to try and that's why this question appear);
2. Decrypt data from CM;
3. Flash stock kernel.
Is it possible or I want to do some wrong steps? Or maybe main target (decrypt data back) can be achieved with some easier steps?
Thanks for reading and probably answer.

Android support for 3tb+ GPT partitions?

Hi, I was wondering if Android supports 3tb+ GPT partitions (8+tb drobo in my case). I was hoping to be able to connect a large storage device to an android device but haven't been able to find any info that definitively answers my question. I had originally thought that if linux supports it then android would (could) support it but perhaps that reasoning is flawed (on another Ouya forum a poster said they can't read anything more than 1.7?tb).
Thanks in advance!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
don't try it ..
i made some horrible experiences when i tried to decrypt my device again, my onyx got stuck in a bootloop when i tried to format my data via twrp (data corrupt).
the only possibility i had was flashing a /data partition image via fastboot which was generated during a source built android version
I dunno if this error is still present, but i can't recommend it because of personal experience
EDIT: Well thats not the answer to your question. So yes it works (TWRP and Encryption) but with already mentioned exception
Hope it helped ..

TWRP encryption problem

Hi!
I use one of my old phones for storing pictures and I seem to have forgotten the password. I'm 100% sure the first 8 characters are correct and decently positive about other characteristics of the password, like length and types of characters. No combination seems to work though. This got me thinking that I might be able to strategically bruteforce the password, but the tools and guides I found online so far really didn't get me anywhere. I'd appreciate any help in decrypting my device. I'll outline the technical details and my idea for a plan below.
The device is a Moto G7 Power which has LOS (I don't recall the version ) and TWRP (3.5.2_10-0) installed. I am also able to find it with my PC when I use the 'ADB devices' command. Since the device is encrypted, I can't just access the plain data through TWRP, unfortunately. I however noticed that TWRP doesn't time-out when trying a password. I wonder whether It's possible to copy the encrypted partition to my PC and to apply a customized bruteforce. I have no experience bruteforcing passwords, but the process I'm thinking about doesn't seem too complicated to me.
Can anybody help me figure this out?
Thanks a lot!
