You probably flashed the no encryption file when you rooted. So that's why.

Not sure. I'll let someone else answer. I've flashed tons of Motorola images the past three years, but not many LG. I don't want to give you wrong information.

Alright, no problem. I reset the phone and everything seems fine. I just have to reinstall TWRP and root now.
you have to select REFURBISH for it to wipe the phone enitirely and flash a clean firmware.
most probably you had selected UPGRADE

hello. i have the same problem on my v30 us998... i didn't use lg bridge and am still on 7.1.2. on this "encryption unsuccessful" screen my only option is select "reset phone" but that does nothing but reboot to twrp.
I'm guessing i need to flash the stock firmware but I'm not sure how to do that.
can anyone help me please?

Can someone please direct me to the thread where you flash back factory recovery?
I'm currently on the lollipop rom and haven't touched it since I rooted it.
Thank you!
I am a little confused as to what you mean when you say "flash back to factory recovery"? Can you explain a little more. Are you referring to the "Factory data reset" option? Thank you.
If you want factory fresh marshmallow just grab the stock kdz and flash it with lgup both have been shared in the forums.

You can get the original stock recovery from here, then fastboot flash it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63604156&postcount=1.
Or just flash the stock MM KDZ in LG Up. KDZ is linked in this thread, which also tells you how to root MM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-v10/general/root-android-6-0-h901-t3382819

It shouldn't but backup just in case
It's always better to do a factory reset after a change in Android version, eg. 7.0 to 8.0, so would recommend back up now.. When you change to Oreo, reset afterwards., then restore.

The KDZ will work regardless of your carrier, so long as your device is an H873.
I flashed it on my Koodo H873 last night and it works perfectly. Just be sure to check off upgrade in LGUP so you don't lose any of your data. Open LGUP using Uppercut.
As long as you don't unplug your phone during the upgrade, you will not brick.

Of course!
Assuming you've downloaded the KDZ, the only other steps are getting LGUP and Uppercut. Just google them, you should be able to find them.
Install LGUP (Make sure it is version 1.14) and run Uppercut. It may trigger a virus warning, so you should disable your antivirus temporarily. It is not a virus.
Plug your USB cable into your computer WITHOUT the phone plugged in.
Shut off your device and plug it in while holding the volume up button. It will enter download mode.
Finally, in the LGUP interface, it should show your device model on Standby. Check off "Upgrade" if you do not want to lose your data, or "Refurbish" if you want to factory reset it. In the list at the bottom, select "BIN" and click on the three dot button. It will prompt you to choose your KDZ.
Assuming you did everything right, click on Start. DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE WHILE IT IS UPDATING. When the progress bar in LGUP reaches 100% and your phone enters the "Android is Upgrading" screen, you may unplug your device and wait for it to boot.
Voila, you have Oreo! Please PM me if anything goes wrong.
In the future, please look for an existing thread for flashing instructions. I will make an exception here because you are new to flashing, and I know it is confusing.
I think I screwed up and bricked my phone... I had recently updated to 20g and was having some issues with some things (I didnt wipe some data when I did the update). So I then tried to wipe some data (from twrp/recovery) and probably ended up wiping more than I should have. My phone now seems to not want to startup. It just sits with the LG V30ThinQ logo on the screen (I had unlocked my US998 phone and have the latest - 20g .kdz on it). I can get into fastboot mode, but if I run adb devices it will give me a blank list of devices. Though it will act like its connected (computer gives a tone like a device is plugged in). lgup doesnt indicate anything is ever connected either. It seems to let me flash something to recovery, so I tried - Fastboot flash recovery with the latest twrp image and it seemed to work.
Trying the button dance on multiple occasions I cant seem to get into recovery. It will send me to factory data reset. And I have said yes a few times, but it still wont fully boot... and trying to get into recovery doesnt seem to do anything.
I tried reflashing (through fastboot) some of the images (first time system, 2nd time boot) directly out of the 20g kdz file and they seemed to flash even though it never shows any devices... I tried entering recovery and just got back to being able to do a factory data reset (tired again). And it still doesnt get past the LG V30ThinQ logo screen (waited like 10 minutes).
Help?
If you're able to get into Download mode, reflash KDZ.

Uppercut doesn't work once you're on Oreo. Uninstall it, you'll never use it again.
Use the Dev Patched LGUP attached to post #1 of the US998 KDZ thread.

You can't root T-MOBILE H932 any other way than the Root H932 Guide @runningnak3dwrote.
How did your flash back to stock? Did you use LGUP and KDZ? Or did you use TWRP and TWRP-flashable zip?
If you used LGUP and KDZ, yes you wiped out TWRP custom recovery and root.

Well, just to be clear, you must flash back to 10d now. The exploit is in the combination of 10d firmware and the H933 10h laf. I looked at many different combinations, and some are close, but none (that I could find -- I did give up once I found a working combo) had everything needed for this to work.

If you want to root, the directions are VERY easy to follow and CLEAR.
If you have any questions, this is not where you should be asking. Also to expand on this, it seems maybe you should not do it since you are having a few issues that you should not be having.

If you relock or unlock the bootloader i think that will automatically factory reset.

The Japanese version is managed by softbank docomo, not by LG, so they keep the kdz private.
It will be possible to change the slot without unlocking the bootloader. I wish you success.
