(SOLVED)'To start android, draw your pattern/password' at every boot - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

I've recently unlocked my bootloader (official method), installed twrp and flashed custom roms along with magisk on my redmi note 4 (mido).
However every time I boot or enter twrp recovery it asks me "To start your android, draw your pattern/password", every time I have to draw the pattern and proceed. Any way I could avoid it at every boot? because it takes long to boot and it's kinda annoying. I know its related to encryption, i have already tried factory reset and wiped internal storage through twrp but nothing works. Also no option to disable encryption in settings>security>encryption. Flashing lazy flasher doesn't work either.
Any help would be much appreciated, Thank you.

Format data via twrp, that'll decrypt the device.

When you choose your screen unlock method, you select "no thanks" on the secure start-up page ( as shown here ).
Also, turning on an accessibility service will disable that too.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I tried "fastboot format userdata" comand and it worked.

Please can you tell me how to use fastboot format userdata command , As i am facing same issue. Pls help.

does formatting the phone is only way...?? i have also the same problem. I mean can i get rid of this problem without wiping all of my data...??

This will remove any security like PIN etc. But if your device is encrypted then you have to Format DATA.

Oh boy!!!
Formatting remove encryption and also delete all data so it's absolutely not required for that "issue" (which is not an issue in fact).
It's "secure boot" it's possible to simply disable it in the settings, instead of asking pin or pattern, one should select none, and that's all, no more "secure boot" and it won't ask anymore for pin or password after boot...

Go to "Settings", select "Security and Location". next, select "Screen lock" then choose your current screen lock type. after that a page will popup asking you to secure start up, select no and enter your current password to disable.
wink wink... that simply does it.

Hi.. I am presently on MIUI10 Global stable.
When I unlock bootloader, install treble recovery ( redwolf twrp) and flash any custom ROM, the device boots and works fine.
But if then again I boot to recovery, data and storage is encrypted and cannot be accessed. No screenlock has been set. Recovery not asking for unlock password also. It just says mounting failed.

After 15 attempts it says "Try again after 30 seconds" and this goes on.. Please help me! this is urgent! :crying:
It won't even show a "Forgot pin option or a restore option with Google account"
I'm using Omega v42
Not sure which pin lock you are referring to, but just go in to recovery and factory reset.
which will remove all the apps and data

Yup it did, that's why I was hoping if anyone could come up with some other way of doing it..
Anyway thanks nonetheless
There is no other way - if you choose a security feature, you expect it to offer some countermeasure. As you have found.
Don't forget to hit thanks...
could've tried formatting /system and reflashing the rom - should've worked, and the apps would be intact

[Q] Encryption Problems

I encrypted my LG Optimus g E970 using the option in cyanogenmod under security. It prompted me for a pin using a keypad, and I carefully entered a 4 digit pin. At the end of the encryption process, it rebooted and promted me with "Enter password to decrypt storage." Instead of a pin, there was a text box and full android keyboard. I entered my pin, and it said "Try Again." It did not lock me out at all for any amount of time no matter how many passwords I tried. I tried rebooting it, and had the same problem. If I leave the device on without typing in a password, it makes a clicking sound after a minute or so every ten seconds. I can't factory reset in TWRP because it can't mount /data. What should I do?
Set the phone back to factory mode by LGNPSTing it. I had a similar problem with stock rom. Had to lgnpst it as recovery didnt helped flash new roms.

Did you ever get encryption working? I've been unable to encrypt my /data partition with the following ROMs:
BeanStalk-4.4.205-20140103-geeb
carbon_geeb-2014-01-04
cm-10.2.0-e970
cm-11-20140104-SNAPSHOT-M2-e970
purity_geeb_ota_2014-01-05
However, I am able to get it working with the stock AT&T image (ATT-Stock-E97020j).
The symptoms are the same: appears to encrypt correctly, however the pin doesn't work.

Any way to backup my data and reset or to bypass PIN lock?

Hello!
A friend of mine, who owns a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, set her lockscreen up to pin lock, but forgot the pin code. So she gave me her phone to find a solution to
1. backup the internal storage (photos) without unlocking it, so we can wipe it afterwards via its recovery menu
or
2. bypass the lockscreen?? losing her installed apps and stuff is not a problem. She just wants her photos to be save.
Samsungs "Find my phone" is not working because she did not activate the needed options.
Any help is aprecciated.
Vulnerability where Samsung phones respond to USB when locked.
Or forgot pin reset with Google option from Lockscreen.
help ...
i have same problem.. a week ago my s6 edge has updated to marshmallow.. then 2 days ago another update.. i use fingerprint for unlock.. but after last update it said "use password for fingerprint safety" and there is no option for google account.. i dont remember my password. my phone locked for 3 days and i cant find any solution for unlock.. i dont want to lose any data because of this safety policy

thanks. my phone is s6 edge and hasnt sd card slot. so how can i download this file via TWRP to my phone?

Download TWRP (3.0.0.x for 6.0.1 android) md5.tar extension and flash via Odin in AP section, make sure to turn off auto reboot, click start and should finish. Then hard turn off and turn on into recovery. You should be able to now use usb and transfer the .zip across to your device and install it, if not ADB push the file to storage

I also noticed this bug on 6.9.9, not after reboot but after restoring the TWRP backup which was taken a day before.. unfortunately there is no "Forgot Password" option, what i did is deleted the "gatekeeper.pattern.key", in your case you have to delete the "gatekeeper.password.key", you can delete both, nothing will happen, u have to set you passwords again, thats it. :highfive:
You can acess it, with TWRP's file manager in the following path...data>system (make sure your system is Mounted)
And Please dont forget to hit Thanks
will try

google aroma file manager, download the zip, and flash it in stock recovery... and you can do that from there,
or you can just unlock your bootloader unofficialy, req for locking permission, and again unlock it via official method, everything is just same.
and please hit the thanx, incase you have forgotten in previous post

Nobody out there with a Solution?
The same thing happened to me.
The sitution for me was that I tried to switch from the stock ROM (which uses encryption for "data") to an older ROM which did not use encryption. So first I had to swipe data to get rid of the encryption.
It is hard to tell from your report.
For you, it might also be similar to this:
twrp asks for password
whenever i want to boot into twrp it asks me for a decryption password. i tried to enter my pin code but still it says wrong. i tried to wipe my phone but still it asks for a password. i hope anyone help me fasy.
