Encryption Unsuccessful error - 7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an Amazon Kindle Fire 2nd Generation (Tate). A few years ago I installed the Pacman KitKat Rom.
Recently I tried installing a few new roms. However I didn't like any of them because they don't have multi user support. So I decided to reinstall the Pacman KitKat Rom.
I have installed everything correctly, but on startup it says:
"Encryption Unsuccessful – 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. When you set up your phone after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to restore any data that was backed up to your Google account."
It gives the option to reset tablet, but the same error comes up again.
I have tried booting into TeamWin recovery and reinstalling the rom as well as doing a wipe of everything, but the error message persists.

[Q] Encryption Unsuccessful

Hi,
I'm currently running CM10.2 stable. If I try to encrypt the phone, it starts and does it for 20-30 minutes (I'm not sure about the percentage it gets to but it goes to at least 60%), reboots into the SONY screen, starts the CM logo and then it gives the "encryption unsuccessful" message forcing me to format data in TWRP and restore from backup.
I even tried to format data, start CM as a fresh installation, encrypting does the same thing.
I'm not sure how I can debug it as there's no ADB.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

MotoG 2nd Gen stuck on reboot

My moto g xt1063 keeps rebooting but I can't figure out why. Sometimes it goes to the home screen and works fine for a few minutes before rebooting again, most of the times it gets stuck on the bootloader warning screen and reboots. I can access recovery though.
I had planned to install cyanogenmod on it a couple of months ago but I got stuck on an "Error updater binary in zip" so I just gave up. The device is running Official Rom provided by Telcel (México) and has SuperUser on it too, I had a notification about the binary but updating didn't fixed the problem.
I have a backup on my computer (mac) but since I can't get the phone to sync by usb I was wondering how to copy it via recovery (clockworckmod v6.0.4.7) or if it's best to buy a micro sd and try to install from there.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
First try a factory reset.
Use an sdcard yo retore backup
If fail return to stock rom
If you have a recovery installed try to make a backup from there and save it in some place like a sd card.
After that I suggest you install CM 12.1 21/05/2015 and look how it works.
Or if you prefer then reinstall the stock rom.

Stuck in an odd bootloop, can't get out of it (SGH-T599N)

Hello all. I have been in the Android root community for a little over three years, and even after tinkering with the various devices I've owned since, I cannot get my T599N to come out of its current bootloop.
A background: I had been checking some things in my settings app (running stock, rooted), and I ended up just force closing the settings app to get out of it quickly. Well, this action deleted all of my text messages, and later on it removed my notification bar and made my wallpaper go black. I ended up booting into recovery mode to try and clear the cache. After it cleared, I rebooted, and bam, the bootloop started.
Now, here's what's interesting. The phone is in a bootloop where it displays the first boot message (SGHT599N Galaxy Exhibit or whatever), and then it tries to boot into cwm recovery, displays the loading screen for that for 2 seconds, and just reboots again. I've tried installing a stock rom from ODIN with no success. The rom apparently loads onto the device but it's still in the bootloop. After this, I tried to install philz recovery to try to install a zipped rom to get the device to somehow boot. I tried to factory reset it for installing purposes, and it just reboots. The device will literally clear everything but /data, so that makes me think that it may be a file system problem. I really need to get it to work, as I am out of a phone right now.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried everything I know.

Dev Edition can't boot to system after failed factory reset from CM 12.1

Greetings all!
Here is a one minute video showing the problem: https://youtu.be/SsDNza2ADbc
EDIT: I got it working again (see below), but now I'm afraid to mess with it further. I can't load the stage fright update and I would like to load CM 12.1 back on there. I'm concerned about that "SP space is not enough" - what should I do about it? Do you think it would prevent me from loading CM 12 or any ROM that includes the stage fright update?
Would the recovery log help? I'm not sure how to view it just yet.
I did a factory reset within CM 12.1 and it booted into CM recovery to run the reset - got stuck there for several moments. Turned it off to try again - ditto. I then loaded latest TWRP and got an error about the cache and system partitions when I tried to do a factory reset and wipe.
Long story short: I was finally able to get it to boot by loading the factory images from the moto site but there was an error (see screen caps) when loading system.img. I ran "mfastboot reboot" and it booted right back into stock recovery. Powered it off and on again, and this time it loaded the system. It took forever but it loaded and seems slower than before.
I have since rebooted it twice and it seems to be loading normally now, but I can't load the stage fright update. It gets to roughly 25% then fails.
You have syntax error, that's why you got error message.
Also perform user data wipe from fastboot, then flash only system, boot and recovery.See how it goes.

XT1068 stock fw fde trouble

Hi,
I've got XT1068, updated to 6.0 Marshmallow. In the past, I got it FDE (full disk encrypted).
Few days ago I unlocked my bootloader to gain root access on my phone using http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/simplified-modifying-boot-img-t3317605
everything went as expected, but by unlocking it wiped all userdata, so I wanted to re-encrypt the phone (and the external SD especially). But now, encryption fails, telling me "encryption fails, you have to reset your phone" each time I start the encryption, ending in a userdata-wipe.
So I thought about going back to stock fw.
After locking the bootloader and applying stock 6.0 FW, I tried again to encrypt the phone, but I am still unable to do so.
Can someone help me giving some suggestions, how I can fix that behavior and (mainly) how to get some errors/debug shown?
When selecting "encrypt now", the green android symbol with black background is shown for 5seconds, then the phone reboots, shows the bootscreen with the M, then it restarts again (after ~30minute) and shows after another 20seconds the message that something went wrong encrypting.
Ok it seems that I found out the problem in my case by myself.
Instead of using mfastboot.exe -w to delete the data and cache partition, I used recovery mode to delete userdata. I did it twice, since the first run, returns some errors.
After reset, I started the phone and got the fresh-install screen. I skipped mobile and wifi networking and did not entered google account details. Then I restarted the phone and waited for ~5minutes and tried to encrypt - everything works. Everytime I started encryption without waiting for some time it failed.
I hope I can save someone else some time, since factory reset takes ~15minutes each time you do it.
