Tell. Me exactly what u did..
Try : default_password if this doesn't work.. Then m sorry my friend u have to format full data..
Its asking for the encryption password. The default password is "default_password" (without the quotes) try that. And if doesn't work then enter Bootloader (fastboot mode) and enter the following commands into CMD.
Code:
fastboot format userdata
Code:
fastboot format cache
Code:
fastboot reboot
This will unencrypt your phone and you'll be able to boot/enter TWRP normally.
Please do note that you'll lose ALL of your data from the commands.
Also, I'm not sure about this but you also might need to flash TWRP again.

If you have set a pin as security try putting that in.
If you haven't then you can do above mentioned methods.
Finally Solved the problem! Thanks guys! I flashed my previous rom and everything worked. The problem seems to be in the twrp itself.

How is this possible?
Firstly, if u cannot enter into TWRP, then how did you flash the ROM?
Secondly, even if you somehow flashed the ROM how does it do away the password error ?? Did it replace the recovery? Recovery image is not usually included in custom ROMs.

I know right!?
I was running out of options. i thought why don't i flash the last rom that was running on this device. i can't explain how or why. I flashed the twrp again and than the rom. i can't explain but it installed the rom. It worked.
So you froobs can't read the dm-verity warning on TWRP page and just flash the one damn zip that prevents from this.
And the problem is in Kernel and firmware
I had trust in XDA-members. But the faith is gone.

Wait, were you able to get past the twrp password thing without formatting just by flashing the rom? Why did you have to flash twrp again before the rom? Did you do a clean flash or dirty flash? Your internal drive was not wiped?
My problem is basically that I was unable to get into my phone so I deleted the 5 gatekeeper/lockscreen keys from data/system. Now I can only see the wallpaper and a blank screen that doesn't allow me to do anything. It doesn't let me allow me to set a new pin. TWRP is asking me for a password that I never set. I've been trying to figure out how to access my data without formatting, but I'm running out of options too..

Your signature doesn't mention a OnePlus 3 or 3T. But if you're using one of these, then I suggest you try the Blu Spark 8.61 TWRP from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...vice-development/kernel-t3404970/post67463496

I'm using a OnePlus 5, but the problem seems to be the same across all the OnePlus phones . Also I'm on android nougat and I didn't try to upgrade to Oreo. Is the bluespark fix for people who tried to upgrade to oreo?

Ah, thanks. Did you have to flash gapps after? I think my rom is an aroma installer.. but that shouldn't be a problem right?

Maybe he used SuperSu to root? I dont' see a dm-verity zip for that. You have to use the bluspark TWRP posted above this reply and set your password in the ROM through another app or through the system settings in that case. I had the same problem. Also, I could have used "default_password" but I didn't know that until after I did all the fastboot flashing...
Or do you know of another zip SuperSu users can flash?
The password which its asking for is the one which is our lockscreen password
OxygenOS encryptes our devices with the password we enter on lockscreen so to decrypt just enter the same password

I confirm, I was stuck at this TWRP password, trying "password" and "default_password", but only my lock screen code / PIN code (they are the same for me) made it threw.

I think because your phone is encrypted. The way the decryption is to format it in twrp. Wipe > Format Data then type yes.
Backup all files before the data format.

Noo, you have to just do it once and if you want to flash Oreo ROMs, use Oreo twrp. You need not format the data then.
What I noticed is that its showing up as 0mb because the device is still encrypted. In order to fix this boot up into the OS. Set a screen lock PIN or password. Make sure you save it as requiring password on startup. Then bootup into TWRP and it should ask you for your password to decrypt. Put in the correct password and your files should show up again.
Note : Got this answer also from @morphixxp

Then, downgrade to 3.0 by cofface, wipe your phone, upgrade to redwolf or twrp 3.x.
Another one, what version of redwolf are you using? I suggest using the one that teamghost made. Its on their worldgiz.com
Site.

Its Safe. I used their redwolf recovery and its very smooth!
if you need the link, here's the link:

Hello guys ,
i am a newbie, i wanted to go for custom rom lineage os for op3t since i was fascinated by my friend's customisation.
i am in a stock rom with december patch 2017 updated.
i went to install twrp and headache started where i ended up decryption problem.
i havent set any password for twrp but it prompts for password. tried and tired of other bluesparks custom twrp also
before i go ahead with format/erase data (everything) i have a question can i able to decrypt mounted storage ??
none of the posts i found have clearly mentioned .. i tries updated twrp from webiste also but of nos usee
anybody's kind enough to explain procedures to be followed
Thx in advance
If TWRP requires you to insert a PW when you haven't one, try "default_password".
try the commands
fastboot format userdata
fastboot format cache
fastboot format system
fastboot erase boot
fastboot reboot
then reboot phone to recovery by pressing the volume keys and select recovery.
If you're able to boot into system, go to Settings > Security and set a password. You will be prompted then whether you want to use this password during boot, select Yes. This way TWRP should accept the password.

Your tip be like: destroy most partitions on the phone and reboot.
Why even erase boot? Never do this.

Password it ask for is the one you have set for lockscreen in last OS you used, just enter the same pin or password you used in last OS and it will decrypt
If default password doesn't work you need to wipe internal storage using above commands given by @ersandeepkr

I would definitely not wipe anything. I would first:
Set my password again (you can use the same one you are currently using) in Settings>Security>Screen lock and select the Require password to start option.
Then boot into TWRP and see if your password decrypts the data.
I would also only use either the latest official TWRP from https://dl.twrp.me/oneplus3/
Or the Blu Spark v8.61 TWRP from https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...vice-development/kernel-t3404970/post67463496

I have used above commands without any problem.
The most dangerous command that will destroy your phone is
"fastboot erase bootloader"
and not the boot.

Hello,
I'm using LineageOS 15.1 with TWRP. Since some time I do not have to enter my encryption code when phone is going to recovery for updating LineageOS. This is strange because phone is encrypted. Did I miss something or is something wrong with my encryption?!

It is possible to have the phone encrypted but with a default password (this is how the photos comes when you buy it).
You can check if it's encrypted in Settings>Security.
You can add an on-boot password by setting your password again and requiring it for startup. Then you'll need the password to decrypt the phone in TWRP and when you boot the device.

Hello @BillGoss,
thanks for your answer.
My phone is encrypted and I have set a password. I do also have to enter it while booting. Just twrp doesn't want one when updating. That's the strange thing.

Do you get this screen when you reboot your phone?
Sent from my OnePlus3T using XDA Labs
Yes, I do when booting phone normal.
I also have to enter it when booting to TWRP.
But I don't have to enter it when installing updates through LineageOS Updater in Android any more since a while.

So if you manually boot into TWRP you get prompted for the password. Good, that makes sense.
I have never used the updater, but since a rom update only requires access to the system and boot partitions, which aren't encrypted, it's theoretically possible to do the update without needing your password.
But I expect that you get prompted for the password when the phone reboots after the update has been installed.

Your data from the last install appears to be encrypted. If you have a backup the easiest way to resolve the issue is to format your storage. You could also use the All in One tool and use its encryption removal option. Please keep in mind that it will wipe out all of your memes, so hopefully those are backed up.

I mean, i formatted to have a custom ROM booting, encrypting my data. I can use the phone, my pin code works in android but it's impossible to decrypt with TWRP...
Édit : found that message from argraur on telegram, so basically we have to wait for an updated twrp ? "Android release 9.0.0_r36 (r37) with May security patch has updated FBE encryption that breaks decryption in TWRP."

That doesn't even make sense. Twrp will not decrypt your phone.
Install Miui again, backup your data, to your desktop, by manually dragging your files over.
Go here and download DM-VERITY, FORCED ENCRYPTION, AND DISC QUOTA DISABLER you will use it to flash between updates or for dirty flashing Miui updates.
Next go back to TWRP the choose format and type yes reboot to TWRP ( you will se a message that says you have no OS are you sure?) Yes, reboot to TWRP
TWRP is not your issue, go read
and read the first comment here
Format storage, or wait for the TWRP and you still need to the format storage, Again a TWRP update will not resolve the issue. We have all had this exact issue.
I'm using another workaround:
With the all in one tool, we can flash .zip from a PC.
So I could install a custom kernel file from my pc directly into phone without loosing data.
Annoying thing is that I need the PC... Can't flash files that are in phone memory... Not such a big issue...
Another question, can I make a backup from the PC? Used to do it via twrp, but it is not safe with that issue...
