Encryption PocoF1 - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Hi everyone, I have a PocoF1 purchased on Amazon a week ago and a Made in Indonesia device has arrived. I managed to install the TWRP and then the Pixel Experiense rom with Android 9, however I cannot have encryption disabled. The steps I do are these;
From TWRP installed the Pixel ROM, I clean cache, I install the zip file to remove the encryption, I make a clean boot to the ROM, from TWRP I format the Data partition and I install Magisk.
Done this when the ROM starts if I go into the phone settings I read "encrypted phone".
Last year on a PocoF1 made in China I managed everything perfectly. I have tried several zip files to decrypt but they don't work.
Tips?

Redmi note 3(SD) TWRP recovery

How to get ota update after installing TWRP recovery on my Redmi note 3(SD)? Help please.
First time I was received an incremental update, it always failed, rebooted phone and received a second full rom update. Then I copied it to external sd card, booted into twrp, done a nandroid backup fellowed by flashing rom , superSU and exposed in one single flashed, wiped cache and dalvik cache then rebooted phone with success.

In earlier versions of stock miui Roms(dev or stable) it was posible to get ota updates if you installed custom recovery and also installed su(rooted your rnm3). But now new ota's includes codes for checking for integeity of portions whether it is tempered with or not so now it is not possible until any sr developers find s a solution. For every new update you have to install full rom package each time.

TWRP encryption issue. Please help me to save phone data.

I wanted to do an update from xiaomi.eu MIUI 9.5.X ROM to MIUI 10 on my wife's Mi Note 3. Unfortunately, I run into encryption troubles. Here are the steps I did:
1. Booted to preinstalled TWRP (I think it was 3.0.2) and did a full backup. Unfortunatelly I only saved to internal phone storage :crying:
2. Wiped Dalvik+Cache
3. Tried to install MIUI 10 Stable but got some errors in TWRP (remember it saying Error 7). Tried to wipe System as well but didn't help.
4. I updated TWRP to 3.1.1. and then managed to successfully install MIUI 10 version. First boot went OK.
Because I wiped System in TWRP I lost all app settings. My idea was to proceed with a restore from a full 9.5.X backup and then repeat the update to MIUI 10 without wiping in order to keep all applications etc.
5. So I booted again to TWRP 3.1.1 and did a restore from a backup.
After the reboot following message appeared: ''Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your phone is no longer accessible. To resume using your phone you need to perform a factory reset....''. In TWRP I can't access any files on internal storage - it shows 0 MB.
Can you please explain to me why this happened? Is it somehow related to TWRP update after performing a backup? I know that the solution is to format data in TWRP but I would like to avoid it. Is there any way of saving phone's data?? Does it make sense to try flashing MIUI 10 ROM via USB-OTG?
Any help would be highly appreciated. We really don't want to lose photos of our little baby from last holidays.
Thank you.

locked myself out of my own device

Disregard unless you want to laugh at me~
Right well i thought it was a good idea to flash ANXcamera through Magisk on the PE+ rom.
After downloading and installing the zip through magisk, i restarted my device and it go stuck in a bootloop. So i went into TWRP and installed uninmod which failed to mount magisk.img. I didnt have a lot of stuff on my phone, so i thought id just reflash the rom again. instead of PE+ which was not stable for my use, i decided to go with the EvolutionX rom. So i put EvoX rom and DFE on an external micro sd card and threw that in the phone. Following the instructions they have on their post, I managed to clear data/cache/system and internal storage (because there was something on there causing it not to boot (most likely ANX)). Flashed EvoX rom and DFE. Restarted the device to the system and managed to forget the Vendor firmware (after i scrolled down to the first comment on the EvoX post that says the flash it). I thought it was a great idea to restart the phone halfway through its first initial boot to go back to TWRP to flash the vendor firmware. But now TWRP is asking for a password. i have tried default_password and still nothing. Didn't think EvoX would boot without the vendor firmware.
Do i have any options from now? Love to hear any suggestions.
Cheers
EDIT: Should've pressed READ ONLY on TWRP. rookie maneuver, completely forgot. ended up flashing a different rom and worked fine.
Simply reflash TWRP via ADB

1. evolution x has its own vendor so you didnt have to flash any! even if you forgot it was fine!
2. seems like initially before flashing that modded cam via magisk, that rom was flashed without DFE (treble) (global) .
3. hence when you booted, the encryption stepped in.
however now
the only thing you can do is to reflash everything AFTER "FORMATING DATA"
1. use twrp from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80122987&postcount=305
2. format data , change data partition's file system to xFAT and then back to ext4. (if necessary)
3. flash firmware 9.6.27-9.0 ( is popular)
4. don't flash pe, flash some other Custom rom, I would say Bootleggers
5. flash DFE Treble
6. flash Magisk20
reboot
got her working. cheers boys

Android 9 keeps encrypting again despite TWRP and Decrypt

Dear readers,
I flashed TWRP 3.3.1, booted into it, wiped data, did factory reset, and installed decrypt for latest pie.
i rebooted into twrp to verify the decryption and indeed I was not asked for a password.
Then I booted into Pie and went through the account setup and while I was doing that some updates got installed by android.
To my horor when I booted back into TWRP it again asked for password, meaning android pie somehow encrypts the data again.
(Second time I did this whole process again I installed magisk.zip, so at least I have root.)
My question is:
How can I stop Android from encrypting again during the account setup process?
Greetings,
Mike
This happens to me too, the only real workaround I've found so far is to flash your zips (ie. magisk) before booting the first time.
I did flash stock image, flash twrp, boot into twrp, format data, flash decrypt.zip, flash Magisk.zip, and reboot. First thing it does is encrypt it again.
Then I tried same process but with no-dm-verity-encrypt.zip or something like that, and it said success, but still Pie decrypts again.
Then I tried previous firmware, (. 48 instead of 51), but same result. It is driving me nuts.
And no help from here so far.
Maybe I should go back to oreo, that worked OK with decrypt.
Greetings
Same problem wait solutions.
Alas, still no fix for this major problem.
What is the point of creating TWRP and other custom recoveries for X01AD when they can not be used for making backups, due to decryption problem?
So please someone with the skills to create a force decryption that actually works, help us out.
Thanks in advance,
Mike

OrangeFox - how to install Lineage OS after wiping everything?

Hello guys,
I have a Redmi 5 Plus. I got it already with OrangeFox 10.0. so I have not so much experience with installing new custom roms.
Unfortunately because I thought I could reset everything I have wiped everything (Dalvik, System, Data, Vendor etc) , so now I can get only into OrangeFox Recovery Mode (I can also access and copy through the pc, but SD cards seem not to work).
So now when I try to install lineage 17.1 it crashes when trying to install. I thought I could flash TWRP 3.4.0.0 but it asks which partition I want to use, but I dont know.
Could someone help me?
I have searched a lot but don`t know what to do or If I have bricked something.
