If I were you i would definitely try the restore device option via kies or smart switch mobile. If you have the same problems after then, maybe a hardware issue (sometimes ram or motherboard incompatibility occurs)
Of course if you want stock rom, or you can try one of the roms in the development section.
But Odin reads your device?

DON'T DO THIS!!
This may invalidate your warranty if the phone is faulty and needs to be returned.

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?

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.

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).
Hmmmm Okay I will try all the methods .! Thanks to all guys for soon reply.!

In oreo, don't configure a fingerprint! If you get a password in lockscreen, you encrypt automatically your phone!

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

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

If you don't need the data simply press cancel when you see password and format data.
Or if You need to access data, well it's encrypted I guess so yeah, you need the password.

If you don't know the password you better have an SD card with the stable rom zip in it, or a computer where you can flash it.

You are simply flashing in the completely wrong steps that's why you keep getting encryption "issues"
Have a read on how to install a ROM using twrp, you obviously still using encrypted data before flashing and not formating before.
Before we had to use fore encrypt zip but not anymore so yeah there's that..
Install TWRP.
In a fresh install, simply press no when password shows, after that simply choose format data and you will get a message saying you sure "it's not a password question" simply type "yes" and press ok.
Done!
Now install what ever ROM you like.

When you format data, reboot device to recovery and after that install ROM.

What I've found is that the F1 ROMs encrypt data at the end of the boot, even if you have formatted it in twrp. Worse, they use different encryption keys between stable and Dev ROMs. Flashing stable over dev or the other way around always left me in the same situation as you. And going back to the previous ROM never worked.
