Hey,
So I tried to encrypt the phone without any warning that it is not compatible with cm12.... thus found myself fixing a bootloop. So how can I encrypt the ****, what encryption alternatives are safe to use with cm12? Thanks.
Nevermind. Solved it

Hey guys,
I noticed the mention in red for the safestrap install mentioning not to try it if encrypted. Does he mean SELinux? If so, I can't disable/set to permissive no matter what I try. I've tried the app, su'ing and running setenforce, and whatever else has been mentioned and I have yet to get out of Enforcing. Is there a trick that I am missing or is all this even necessary? Thanks!
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but after trying absolutely everything, flashing Supersu v2.68 prevents the ability for my Nexus 6P on MHC19I to encrypt. This applies to encryption on first boot or through security settings. I'm also using the latest modified TWRP for MHC19I.
Is that an expected behavior?

It's a known issue. You need to be unrooted for the encryption procedure to work. You can root again after encrypting.

If SuperSU doesn't delete the verity key from the ramdisk when it patches the boot.img, wouldn't encryption still be possible? Or are those two things unrelated?
The systemless root files live on an image on /data, as such /data is always in use and cannot be unmounted. It needs to be unmounted to change the encryption.
Hi all,
I have recently tried running RR and loved ridding my Mix of Miui but had issues with root being recognized by my work email even with magisk hide. It would not allow me to run Maas360 because of that.
I then tried Pixel Experience which wasn't rooted (I think) but NFC wasn't working so that wasn't going to work.
I then tried AICP 13.1 which I think wasn't rooted and all things like NFC we're working but when I tried to install the linked Gapps (and a couple different ones) it would load and when I went into Google to set up the account it would hang at looking for details and then almost all Google apps one at a time would show as stopping.
Can anyone recommend a Rom that will give me the pixel experience that will include the Gapps and that isn't rooted.
I appreciate any help in advance.
Thanks

You really need a thorough wipe when coming from miui ROMs as some files from gapps can remain and cause problems, did you try dm-verity instead of magisk, no root but stops device becoming encrypted.

Hi. I'm running Nitrogen OS (latest Oreo version) and i noticed something really funny and weird. I somehow encrypted phone on this rom via Magisk (asking for pin on boot,in twrp as well). But recently i unchecked that "Preserve force encryption" and after some time i rebooted phone. I noticed that android not asking for pin on boot (and twrp the same). So i somehow can control/remote encryption. Really weird.
PS:Can someone explain how tf is this possible?

I've had something similar happen a couple of times with Magisk. It seems to remove the on-boot password which allows TWRP to also access the data.
It doesn't actually remove the encryption - you have to reformat the data partition to do that.
You can set a new on-boot password by setting a new password (it can be the same as the current one) and require it to be used to boot the phone.

i am using note 9 with twrp and magisk installed i want to use google wallet but its asking me to encrypt device.. i tried to encrypt it but its keeps saying encryption failed and reset device even i tried to reset but its still showing same.. so i want to know is it possible with magisk to simply bypass encryption on apps which required it? i mean how can i run apps which require encryption with enabling encryption?

Yes, posible, try this module -
Fake encryption
Is there any way to fake that system has encryption turned on? I do not want to encrypt my phone but my local bank app need encryption in order to use finger print login. Is there way to fake encryption to that app?
