Can anyone verify the ability to successfully encrypt this device with any custom rom 4.4.4 or newer?
I've tried Omnirom 4.4.4, Carbon 4.4.4 and Meticulus' CM12.1
But all have failed to encrypt despite my best efforts.
CM12.1 wouldn't even encrypt with instructed via ADB.
ANY Input is appreciated!
THANKS!

Here's the skinny...I'm on bootloader version 30.b4 I have tried out CM12.1 after installing CM11 and rebooting. CM12.1 is working great except for a few inconsistencies. I want to upgrade as far as I can and have a working device. I have not flashed any boot.img files or modem files or done any alterations to the partition tables except what the official CM12.1 (following their method of installing CM11, rebooting, then flashing 12.1.
Here are my thoughts.
Flash the stock 4.4.2 sbf and OTA as far as I can and be where I end up.
Flash the official .sbf for LP5.1.1 and update bootloader, then try to get CM 12.1 installed again and hope it works better.
Go back to stock rooted 4.4.2 with xPosed and love it,
?..... What should I do and why?
I don't want to end up stuck somewhere that sucks and I need your input.
Thanks.
Hi,
I own a Motorola Moto g2 (2014) Indian Version, 16 gb and i am running a stock firmware 5.0.2, rooted and bootloader unlocked. and i want to install a Custom ROM, So i went on to Youtube and find out how to unlock the bootloader and install Super SU.
After that i came to know about this site, and thought of flashing CM 13, and so in order to do that it was required to update bootloader, since it won't work on bootloader 4.4
So, i followed the instructions clearly and updated the bootloader and the TWRP Recovery , Both are successfull.
Now comes the problem part for me:
So when i browsed the xda developers site in the moto g 2014 thread , i came across this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/6-0official-indian-ota-zip-captured-t3299550
It said
So to everyone here. After updating to 6.0 I don't think it's a good idea to downgrade to 5.0.2 and update it with stagefright update over the air.
I made it and it hardbricked my phone.
5.0.2 bootloader version is 48.83
6.0 bootloader version is 48.86
So, don't downgrade your bootloader, it can cause hardbrick!
so, i got afraid, since i am going to install cm 13 nightly which is unstable and the bootloader already updated, will i be having problems when i restore it back to stock 5.0.2
and would it be safe if i installed cm 12.1 after updating the booloader or will it hard brick my phone. (since cm 12.1 is stable version compared to cm 13)
P.S Can someone post a link on how to backup before installing the Custom ROM, since i always see this step:
that is to make a backup using TWRP and then use advanced wipe to wipe the device, the only question is won't the adavanced wipe deletes the backup folder ?
And Is there any stable ROMS for moto g that runs marshmallow, + is it possible to install multi ROM twrp and Install CM 13 Along with the Stock Android
Hello all! I was wondering if I was able to flash any stock based custom rom on this device using flashfire, I've done it on my Kindle which had a locked bootloader and installed cm12.1 and resurrection so I was wondering if I could do the same on my stock lollipop rom and get some results, cheers and everyone have a great day
Anyone? I'm on the same boat. Flashfire would allow us to flash another ROM with having root as the only requirement
Hi,
I have lose my ROOT right after installation an AOSP7.1 NOUGAT ROM on my XPERIA SP.
Who can give an manipulation to find my ROOT?
I can use Fastool with device Fastboot or Flash mode.
Thank for your help,
Laydan
Read the faq. It clearly states that there's not root for AOSP 7.1
Didn't wok for me. What am I doing wrong?
Is there another, easier way to root?
Basically, all I really want is to flash Lineage OS 14.1. That's the end goal.
So far, I've successfully unlocked the bootloader.
Firmware is 10.7.A.0.228 Lollipop 5.1.1
