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.

I had this issue, too once. Can't recap what exactly fixed it, but I flashed TWRP again (think that didn't fix it) and then dirty flashed a ROM (in this case the same, which was already on the phone). If I remember correctly it worked after the later only. Might have also had to flash superSU. No data should be deleted if you just dirty flash (but do make a backup, should be no problem, since you are stuck in recovery anyway [emoji12]).
What ROM did you try to flash? You're rooted?

I also dont really care if I lose photos or anything I already got all of them saved on my pc before I even started rooting the damn thing. I do need to ask tho how do you dirty flash and Do i just flash twrp normally since im already in it or ??? As I said im rlly new to this
TWRP can be flashed just from inside TWRP itself. Dirty flash means not do a factory reset before flashing.
Sorry that I can't remember what fixed it, but you can get out of it, 'cause I did, too...
Just wipe cache and dalvik/art cache then install separately TWRP, ROM, GAPPS, SUPERSU again and reboot after each install step to see of you reboot to TWRP again. That's what I did.
I use latest AICP ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=69699770) but that shouldn't matter.
Hope it helps.

What he asked [emoji32]
It's happened to me too! Like three times lol. Just use UpperCut / LG UP to flash the latest nougat rom. That will fix the issue. You will need to re-root after that. There are instructions in this forum that tell how to do all of that. Good luck
Well and don't flash a ROM which is not for your device...
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.

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.

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.

Install the attached zip via TWRP. It is a fix for Nougat - but it might work for Oreo as well. If it doesn't work, then your only solution is to wipe /data (from TWRP).

Are you able to boot into TWRP?? If not flash TWRP first using fastboot.
Once you have access to TWRP boot into it and perform a full wipe (System + Data + Cache + Dalvik + Internal Storage). Perform a format too after wipe to be on the safer side. Now copy a custom ROM or MIUI ROM to your Internal Storage or SD card through a computer. Once copied install your ROM.
If you flashed custom ROM flash Gapps after flashing ROM. Reboot.
If you flashed MIUI, flash lazyflasher after that(or phone will be stuck at MI logo). Reboot.
You can find download links for lazyflasher here on XDA or you can google it too.

If you flashed MIUI, flash lazyflasher after that(or phone will be stuck at MI logo). Reboot.
You can find download links for lazyflasher here on XDA or you can google it too.

@ArK96 is right but the only thing i suggest is to, flash miui and lazyflasher first so as to properly set up the initial firmware, and partitioning. After miui boots properly, you can do anything you want. :highfive:

Are you able to boot into TWRP?? If not flash TWRP first using fastboot.

Go here and download the Global Stable worldwide release version firmware.
Boot into twrp wipe and format everything. Also after that reflash TWRP again using fastboot.
Once reflashed boot into TWRP and again perform a full wipe and format, then install the downloaded firmware zip. After that reboot TWRP and try flashing MIUI.

Yes. Red wolf is more MIUI friendly, it is made with OTA survival in mind. But your issue is that the ROM is not getting flashed. You can try what I said above about TWRP reflash, if it doesn't work you can go ahead and try redwolf. REDWOLF is nothing but modded TWRP, base code is still TWRP.

Good job mate.
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!
TWRP 3.1.1.0
Nothing solved the problem but twrp 3.1.1.0 .
I am now having this proble where do I get twrp 3.1.1.0 the official site lists only 3? this password problem has annoyed me for hours now

Didnt worked for me.. i get the error "FAILED (remote: dtb not found)"
Flash miui with fastboot mode with pc than you see stock recovery come
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
Use the steps in this thread
