TWRP Decryption problem - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I'm using TWRP 3.2.1.0 (latest version available) on kenzo running NOS (android 8.1) and I've successfully encrypted my phone.
However, TWRP can't decrypt it. Whatever password I input when I open recovery, it doesn't work. The system boots and works flawlessly.
Has anyone else faced this problem? Any suggestion?

[SOLVED]Lineage OS device encryption

Hi everyone!
I want to know if I can use "encryption" or "device encryption" in Lineage OS (Android 7.1.1) with TWRP 3.0.2 with any problems
Actually, can TWRP 3.0.2 decrypt Lineage OS (Android 7.1.1)?
Device: Redmi Note 3 Pro (Qualcomm)
Thanks for any info and help!
Device Encryption is working fine with TWRP 3.1.0.
NOTE: If you have a KATE (Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 SE) installing TWRP 3.1.0 will make official Lineage OS updates (OTA) fail because Lineage OS only support Kenzo and not Kate. A workaround for this problem is flashing TWRP 3.0.2 when you want to update Lineage OS.
NOTE 2: If you rollback to TWRP 3.0.2 to update Lineage OS (Because you have a Kate device and don't want to change any update file) you will be unable to decrypt your system. So if you have a KATE and you are using KENZO ROMS for your device, do not use encryption if you want to update your system. *If you know how to change update files and trick TWRP 3.1.0 to flash a KENZO ROM on your KATE device, ignore this note.

Unfortunately, you can't revert encryption. But the easiest way is making a backup with TWRP, later "Wipe -> FORMAT DATA" and then restore your backup.

Data Encrypted - Pixel Experience Android 9

Hello Everybody,
I have so following problem with data encrypted in twrp:
I installed latest version of twrp
! Used MIUI 10 developer version and data was encrypted according Twrp (according to settings device is not encrypted.
To flash no new OS from Twrp I had to format all data.
After that I installed second latest (08.11) Pixel Experience and Magical latest version.
I rebooted system.
! No Twrp and magisk APK installed.
Manually installed Twrp and magisk APK
I can install adaway also (superuser is installed)
Problem:
System mentioned that there is a new version of Pixel experience (15.11) and I wanted to install it. But it didn't work -> Twrp stopped installation, because data is still encrypted.
To install latest version I formated everything again and did above steps. But again with same result... I can install everything (manually) and everything works without to install new versions of Pixel Experience or anything else from Twrp recovery.
I tried to encrypt my phone over settings, but after encryption the system freezes after putting in pin code at the start. In twrp recovery I have to put in the code too, but again encryption is still available...
I have no further idea. Could you help me? Don't want to loose all data Everytime an update appears
Magisk "force encryption" manually enabled. The other setting is not enabled.
Thank you very much for your help!!!!!

Help with Twrp: Can't mount data

I literally got my Mi Pad 4 (lte) today. Initially it had MIUI EU rom installed, but I somehow managed to wipe the system while trying to install Lineage 16, resulting in having no OS. After several hours of struggle, I managed to install MIUI 10 Chinese stock (10.3.2) via MiFlash. However, I cannot go pass the twrp password stage when I use twrp on adb. I tried formatting data a few times, but it didn't work. I tried adb sideload option from twrp to install twrp or any other ROM, but again, the data mounting issue got in the way. I am completely stuck, and I am desperate. I have tried many different versions of twrp available on this forum, but none of them worked. Could anyone possibly help me? Which twrp worked for you? I've tried:
"TWRP-20190104-3.2.3.0-3-clover.img"; "twrp-3.3.1-clover.img" (from unofficial twrp); "recovery-TWRP-3.2.3-0930-XIAOMI_PAD4(PLUS)-CN-wzsx150.img".
Any help would be hugely appreciated! Many thanks!!!
Problem solved! I used the latest version of the Chinese TWRP (by LR Team) which has a function to disable forced encryption. I needed to reboot the tablet a couple of times to achieve it, but eventually the password step on TWRP was gone! Many thanks to LR Team!! I still don't know what (else) I should do when the 'format data' option on TWRP doesn't remove the encryption. .. Anyway, I have now managed to install MIUI 10 EU then Pixel Experience without an issue.

Data decryption in recovery with Android 10?

Hi!
I recently updated from Havoc OS 2.9 to 3.3, so now I am on Android 10.
Up until now, the OrangeFox recovery was able to decrypt data. But with the new version I always get an error.
Did someone manage to have recovery decryption working in android 10? If yes, how?
Format your data. With twrp. Encryption is gone. Be carefull after doing that.. the first bot May Take a while so wait and don't worry

Honor 7 custom ROM install issues

Hi all,
I experience some issues installing a custom ROM to my Huawei Honor 7 PLK-L01 phone. Can anyone help me or pointing me in the right direction please?
I'm trying to install a custom ROM, but from the ones I tried to install (DigiROM, H7T, Lineage 13, Lineage 13 v2, Lineage 14, Pure, YodaROM), I only managed to get Lineage 13 and Lineage 13 v2 working on my phone. I was able to install all other ROM's, but after installation and rebooting, the phone got stuck on the "Honor" start-up screen and not continue to boot the ROM afterwards.
(By the way, does someone have the MoDaCo Custom ROM (by paulobrien) available? I want this ROM the most, but the download site has been taken offline )
I'm using TWRP v3.2.1-0, but also tried installations with TWRP v3.1.1-0-plank.
With all installations, I wiped dalvik/cache/data/system and installed the ROM by installing the copied .zip file from my SD card, via TWRP.
(Installation via ADB Sideload is not working. Device is not recognized in ADB, even after installing USB drivers. Fortunately, installing via TWRP works for me.)
My phone is unlocked and root is working fine. The phone version was initially C432B121 (Don't know if this changes with each ROM installation?)
Although LOS13 is able to be installed on my phone, with this ROM, I'm not able to charge my phone... When I try to select the USB configuration mode (via "Select USB configuration" via Developer Options), the settings menu crashes after selecting one, with error message "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."
When setting up a lock screen security (eg. PIN code to unlock phone), the same error occurs.
Furthermore, the camera is not working, but this would be a known issue for this ROM. Hence, on my phone, the camera is also not working with suggested apps as Footej, Camu, or Cameringo, which should deal with this issue.
Does anyone recognize this? Do I have a sort of admin rights issue? Or do I need to install a matching firmware version for each ROM? Or perhaps another TWRP version?
Right now I have installed Lineage OS 13 Reloaded v2.0 (Android 6.0.1) (by Spirtix & Speedo.thc)
Problem solved! Updating the OTA firmware was my solution (C432B121 to B130, then to B180, then B370).
Thanks to DigiGoon, these files can be downloaded here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=102830
hello @broek84 - sorry for an unrelated question:
how did you unlock the bootloader of your Honor 7?
thx
