Hi TheromsMan
There is no specific entry point on TWRP that will do as you request.
Using TWRP, only by clearing "data" (factory reset) will disable the fingerprint security enforcement. By doing that you will lose everything but the system installed itself.
Nice regards and good luck.

First boot ask password

Hello guys, i have a problem, i tried to install RR 5.7.4 via TWRP ZCX, but the first boot asks me for a password
PS: I tried flashing RR while i was in MIUI 8 global stable
Factory reset in TWRP.

Delete all .key files and also delete locksettings.db file.
Reboot enjoy

What he suggested will delete the lockscreen password/passcode etc so you can boot the phone without any prompts. You do this within TWRP.

oh in that case, should I have to factory reset everytime I flash a rom through my TWRP? I use ZCX TWRP, so Lazy flasher is not required after rom flashing right?
you just need it once . to decrypt your storage

In the information about the ZCX TWRP I found below:
ZCX TWRP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/redm...persu-t3462448
- Based on official TWRP 3.0.2-0
- Patches boot.img automatically (Removes dm-verity flag)
- Disables forced encryption
Should I have to tweak anything in TWRP settings to remove this dm-verify flag everytime?

no ,but you should flash lazy flasher once . to decrypt ur internal storage. dm-verity flag does nothing to decrypt storage

I tried it. Earlier i did not have any issue even if i install custom rom on my Redmi note 3. But today i thought of trying Pure Nexus *Substratum* rom. And on the first boot it asked me to enter password. though i have never kept password for my mobile, i tried all the passwords that i remember, which didnt solve my issue. then saw ur reply and tried it, and still it didnt work for me. Any other way?:crying:

Are you coming from MIUI? If so then MIUI encrypts the data partition, hence the new ROM asking for a password.
Before you install the ROM, you must "format data" on wipe in TWRP, this is different from wipe data.
Note that this will delete all your data obviously.

Posted a thread on MIUI forum as well. Waiting for some sort of help. Earlier i was able to install Custom Rom's without any issue, (though i am coming from MIUI), but now what ever may be the rom that i am trying to flash, the first boot is asking me for password. Unable to understand what is the issue.

Are you sure that you used "format data"?
Wipe data doesn't remove the encryption.

Perfect. Worked bro. Thanks a lot for the help. I was wiping cache,and internal storage. Now only came to know this. :highfive:

Is my /data encrypted?

I am on miui 8.1.4.0 rooted rn3p. So my question is can i use dual boot patcher and dual boot lineage os 14.1
Anyone ??
OK. I'll try to help. Boot into TWRP and press the button on the bottom left (four lines). This will open TWRP log. If you see something like "attempting to decrypt with default password" it means your data is encrypted. An alternative solution is to flash TWRP by dadi11 and see if it asks you for password.
How to decrypt? You must format data in TWRP. This will wipe your /data and the entire internal storage so make sure you make a backup on your SD card or PC. Then boot into TWRP, select Wipe menu and press Format data. After this, immediately flash either SuperSU or Magisk or Lazy flasher (which ever one of the three you like) and only then reboot. Once the system boots, go back into TWRP and check your log again.

Umm... not sure what you're talking about. Maybe DT2W? I tried out Radon, but I haven't tried that feature. I think you just need to reflash Radon and choose default options. If that doesn't work for you, just reflash MIUI, it will get rid of Radon.

Ok so here is what i got in the results of this experiment :
I was able to patch minz1 lineage os and gapps pico 7.0 and then booted to zcx and flashed both files i removed the fingerprint and any kind security measures on miui and i flashed both files and it was successful!!!
But now i am not able to boot to either miui or lineage os!!!
Conclusion: DO NOT TRY THIS!!!

Weird... It seems to me that you are still encrypted. Have you tried flashing DualBootUtilities and switching to MIUI that way? It is possible that you messed up your primary ROM boot image, I think that happened to me once. Whatever the case, reflashing MIUI should allow you to boot into MIUI.

I didn't see this post until now. Well, of course you can't use DBP when you're encrypted. If you want to try DPB, you have to format data.

Flashing back miui kicked me out of the situation and btw i backed up the boot.img as well as tried switching roms none worked and also it was glitching zcx a bit.
Its quite irritating seeing xiaomi and miui enforcing so many security measures a bad day for people who like to customize things a lot!

OK. Good to know that at least you have a working system now. I only experienced issues with booting MIUI after I flashed a custom kernel on MIUI and forgot to update the kernel in DBP app, but like we established flashing MIUI solves the problem.
But again, there's no use in experimenting with DBP until you format data. So please report back when you get around to doing that.
As for Xiaomi policies, I don't know the details, but I don't think it's their fault. It seems that Google can be very strict when certifying devices and allowing the OEMs to include Gapps. Google forces OEMs to ship phones with locked bootloaders and forced encryption.

The order of steps is very important.
1st step: Boot to recovery.
2nd step: Format data (not wipe and I don't know what you mean by erase).
3rd step: Flash ROM (Epic ROM should be good, but it also works for Global Stable and others).
4th step: Flash SuperSU.
5th step: Reboot system.

Can Reverting back to Miui From RR disable encryption ?

Hi,
I know that 7.1.1 ROM comes with encryption enabled by default but can changing rom or reverting back to stock ROM
will disable or remove encryption ?
I wanna know if there is way to disable default encryption on RR rom
To remove encryption, format data and flash one of the following
SuperSU, Magisk, Custom Kernel or FED Patcher
Before booting the rom.
All of above can disable force encryption.

TWRP requires password

Hi everyone,
I have this problem that TWRP asks me for a password every time, I tried entering my password but it didn't work, if I press cancel I get in the menu but TWRP can't see internal storage only SD card.
Does someone know a fix for this problem?
I've tried some stock passwords also I tried reflashing TWRP but neither worked for me.

This is a main problem right now on TWRP... You have to actually wipe all data for making TWRP work! there is not another way of doing it.

Yes, I assume that is the only way for now when installing custom ROM (Lineage OS 14.1) TWRP no longer asks for passwords on start-up even after restoring MIUI 9.6 via TWRP, it still doesn't want pass
I reset my device via wipe option in twrp home screen but , the problem still persists. Provide some other method to overcome this problem.

Make a backup via TWRP and save it on USB OTG or SD card.
From the WIPE menu select ADVANCED
Select everything (except for USB OTG and MicroSD, that is where your backup is) and then Swipe to Wipe. Restore the backup you made.
That did it for me, I didn't clean flash official ROM because I've read that it bricks the device if you do it via TWRP (I am not sure if that is true or not, if someone has information, please share.)
Important: I am not some expert in flashing modifying unlocking and etc. This is just my personal experience, if you decide to try this and somehow you brick or/and damage your devices, I am not responsible in any way, if you are not sure what you are doing, better just don't do anything.
Good Luck!

All TWRP for Rosy (Miui 10, global/ EU) now has problem with password for encryption. However I just select SD, point to the downloaded ROM and flash, and it works! Update new rom and do not lose anything. I think it only hide the OS. I only swipe the data when OS crash

A little help here !

I am currently on Pixel Experience (Build no. : 190205) with Franco kernel. I have received the OTA update but unable to flash it from TWRP because of encryption enabled (ik I can use OTG tho) but I want to know how to disable that encryption WITHOUT flashing the data coz I don't want to rn, so is there any way to flash encryption disabker via magisk? I've searched around a bit for that but no help to force disable encryption without flashing the data first
And one more thing, after disabling the encryotion (without formating the data) can I dirty flash the OTA zip or again need to flash
A little help would really be appreciated :fingers-crossed:

I had this same question previously and did not have an answer, in my case I flash a new rom version with dirty flash, and data encryption was enabled, my new flash rom was very broken, I flashed the old version on my system and I lost access to /data, I was crazy at the moment trying to remember what I lost, but it was too late for that.
In your case you still have access to /data?
If so, backup for your notebook everything in the internal memory of your device.
If not, the only method of getting back to your device, is unfortunately, to do a Clean Flash.
PS: perhaps, there may be a good soul with a solution to it, but I did not have an answer that worked.
PS2: Always use DisableForceEncryptation after flashing some ROM, I've learned to lose things.

Backup first when you have the chance.
It seems that the official TWRP now can handle encryption/decryption. Check that and flash it, then boot back into TWRP and flash the OTA.

Well thanks for replying. I got a possible fix this btw ....

In this thread, the TWRP mentioned says " THIS TWRP DOES NOT DISABLE FORCE ENCRYPTION. IT WILL DECRYPT THE ENCRYPTED DATA WITHOUT THE NEED OF FORMATING IT " so I gave it a shot and it worked. Now I have encryption disabled from TWRP and working absolutely fine with internal storage mounted and needed not to format anything.
PS: just flashed that recovery via adba and viola oh and I always make a backup before tinkering with rom thanks tho
