Hi all,
I encrypted the official lineageos on my Pixel 5 with a pattern and then installed a new version via TWRP.
Unfortunately, that does not seem to work with encryption, so now LOS no longer start and TWRP freezes at the logo and no longer asks for the pattern.
Is there a way to decrypt the internal memory with TWRP? I have previously made a backup, but now I no longer have access to it because it is on the encrypted storage.
I already tried to reinstall TWRP but it doesn't work, it freezes at the logo and therefore can't be used anymore.
If anyone has an idea what I can do, I would be very grateful.

Hello So I managed to update my LOS 14 to 15. Flashed latest TWRP 3.2.1.0 with Nexus Root Toolkit and installed Lineage OS 15 and Gapps for 8.1 without problem.
But today came out OTA update and when I hit install it opens TWRP that asks for decryption password.
I have never set any screen/SIM lock or password. As I checked there is no updated TWRP for Nexus 6 just this 3.2.1.0 that is not supporting Oreo based ROMs encryption.
Is there any workaround, without wiping data? Maybe with OTG stick and installing update manually... or just wait for TWRP to update/or contact them?
Thank you guys.
LOS forces encryption for years and recently not. Only way to decrypt is hit cancel when prompted for password, access and back up data to laptop or OTG flash drive (offsite), backup ROM to TWRP, move TWRP folders offsite, format data which wipes all data, move/restore all data and files back to phone, restore ROM, flash Fed-patcher V8 (must download before hand and move offsite with other data so u can now use it) to rid of encryption on LOS, reboot
Have a xiaomi mi8 with lineage os on it (official build) and twpr. Did have encryption working before but had to wipe the phone and lost all is and encryption and can't remeber for the life of me what twrp version I used to get encryption working and what steps I took to get there. I try encrypt the phone now and it gets stuck on lineage boot logo. Switch it off after hours of being on the lineage logo and get to twrp and it does not ask for a password but says it can't Mount my partition when j try browse file or factory reset (has to be format option to start again)
Any ideas what twrp version I need and what steps in what order I need to take to get encryption back
Hi,
I am running the official Lineage 16.0 build from Microg with the latest Orangefox Recovery.
This week I installed an Lineage Update, the phone booted into Recovery, I entered my pattern, phone said unable to decrypt but did flash my update and rebooted. But now I lost magisk and have no root anymore. So tried to boot into recovery, enter my pattern, but decryption fails....
So I put the magisk .zip on a microsd card, but cant find it in my recovery to flash...
Formatting data will wipe all my apps, images, settings and so on am I right?
Is there a way to fix this?
How do you guys update your Roms with magisk root? That's the first time I used magisk, used the addon from lineage before to root my phones.
Hello, I have a weird issue with my note 10 pro where after I install any rom it just refuses to mount any storage, and the phone's internal storage stops showing up on my pc when I'm in any recovery mode. I've tried TWRP and OrangeFox, tried Pixel Experience Plus and now Octavi OS. I've also tried flashing this forced encryption disabler (link https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...disk-quota-disabler-11-2-2020.3817389/page-65), at first it kept failing telling me it failed to mount, however after I rebooted the recovery it actually flashed. Despite that my phone is still encrypted.
Luckily I managed to flash magisk before booting into the custom rom for the first time so it actually flashed, but I can't flash anything else.
Has anyone else experienced this bug? I just want to be able to flash stuff.
note: I've tried with and without a password or a pin, and tried both TWRP and OrangeFox. They just never ask for any authentication.
is your phone storage showing 0 in recovery?
The available version of OrangeFox does NOT support data partition decryption, because of that nobody uses it on our phone ...
What is the version of the TWRP you use?

Hello. I'm trying to load into custom recovery to work on my phone. It's bootlooped so I can't boot my phone and open it.
I've tried with different twrps but they all get stuck at the twrp logo. I know the obvious solution is to factory reset, then twrp will work. But I don't want to lose the data. It's probably because of the F2FS file format that makes twrp loading very slow. But I've already tried loading for 15 hours, and it's still not loading. Is there any other custom recovery that could work? Or any other way to boot into custom recovery or recover my files?

At the first installation of a custom rom you must format the data then flash the rom.
Is there any way to recover my files? They are in the internal storage. I've been using los 18.1 for a while before it bootlooped out of nowhere.

If there is a Twrp/O.F for your phone, install it and try a backup (not sure it works).
