You have some partitions encrypted.
Decrypt your phone and try again.
Some ROM have encryption activated, initially.

Mmmh it seems, that you can not.
please go there and read:
http://forum.le.com/us/index.php?threads/issue-whit-leeco-update.2383/
In addition you should also google for "android encrypt" or perhaps for "android 7 encrypt" ?
This feature exists already since Android 5...

Please read this thread:
Indian stock ROM LeMax2 EUI 5.8 15s
/data is encrypted with a factory password
-> no way to make it accessable for TWRP.
so you need to copy the content and after that, you need to wipe this partition

I had done that earlier when i flashed TWRP for the first time and after that nothing like this showed. I am seeing this again after updating it again to 3.1.0.
So i will have to factory reset it again to make itwork properly?
And do i have to do it every time i update my TWRP?

And also what all should i wipe?
Should i wipe my whole phone storage?

the stock boot is always checking of /data is encrypted or not.
if /data is not encrypted, it will start encrypting while booting.
decrypt key is not known.

Thanks for the help but one more question is that will this happen again if i dont update my TWRP? Or only while updating it encrypts the data?
Sorry for all the noob questions. I am not so techy guy so these things are new to me

You will never have access to /data with TWRP,
if you can not provide the correct password.
This password is set by the manufacturer and not public yet.
If you boot the system you will have access to /data.
If you boot the TWRP you will not have access to /data.
This is not related to any update..

Believe me or read the other threads regarding default encrypting Android versions..
/cache is cache
/data is all your userdata and apps
/system is the os
/boot is bootloader
/recovery is the TWRP
there are more mountpoints, you can see them if you click on mount in TWRP.
I wrote /data encrypted and you wrote /cache wiping.

Also it doesn't ask for any password or anything just says unable to mount storage at the end while wiping cache and dalvik cache. I havn't flashed anything since some time soo can't tell if flashing ROM will work or will it show some error.
But a few months ago NO error was displaying and everything was fine

You think, it's perhaps related to TWRP version?
Well then you can boot the version before or another version w/o flashing...

I think I lost all my data

Hi, I want to install custom rom but I think because of encryption I lost my all internal storage :/
Before mi 9t pro, I used an old android phone. Because of that I didn't know too much about encrption.
When I open OrangeFox it asks my password. So I thought remove my password before any rom installation should be enough.
I remove my password. After dirty rom flash my phone didn't boot to system but did boot to recovery.
Guess what? All my file names are random
Before anyone say, I have a backup. But where Yesss it is in internal storage with encryption :angel:
I tried to wipe data, didn't work. I flash my rom mi flash with keeping data, didn't work.
Now my phone boot up, I can see my files with random names.
Why I didn't backup to computer? Because I was lazy.
My big question;
Can I recover my files (~70 gb), I know my old password.

It's a good thing your data wasn't important then, if it was you would have a backup stored on a PC or cloud. First rule of flashing, have a backup. You can't recover it's gone, format data In twrp to remove encryption and wipe your internal storage then flash your rom.

Yes, it isn't too much important but I'm a little sad. I just lost few whatsapp message.
I will delete everything now. After that, I will disable this encryption.

Question UNABLE TO BACK UP ANY ANDROID 12 MIUI OR CUSTOM ROM (internal storage 0mb) in TWRP

I'm able to use backup & restore in Android 11 custom or miui rom. but unable to use it when i flashed android 12 roms.
Can anyone walk me through how to fix this.
Did the ff workaround in youtube as well in any similar post but still not working.
1. Advance wipe > click data >Repair or Change File System > Change File System to EXT2 & EXT4
2. Format data
This process is temporarily working the internal storage is visible, but after booting to system and go back to twrp recovery, the internal storage appears 0mb again.
I flashed stock rom/ eu rom as well in TWRP as i read this is worked with them. but not on my end.
Kindly help me to solve this issue please.

TWRP is not yet compatible with Android 12, it can't decrypt the internal storage. You can't fix it until TWRP (or some other recovery) solves Android 12 support.
I think in theory you might be able to back up the ROM to an unencrypted storage like an SD Card or OTG USB drive, but I'm not sure (and I'm even less sure if such backup could even be successfully restored if you back the partition up without decrypting).

Use otg usb

In my opinion it's only possible to backup encrypted storage as in A12 if you flash DfE but then you'll have to format and later you're decrypted and in future you can backup via TWRP.
But you can copy actual personal files with a file manager, if android is booted up, to external storages or internal micro SD. android internal app data can't copied.

You can install cutom roms, flash magisk, kernel and other stuff. The memory is only encrypted, the rest works perfectly fine. Have you checked on the latest recovery?
A new kernel was flashed an hour ago. I have made a backup of the boot and dtbo images. It really works
Not checked to backup complete rom, but suppose it's possible with otg

I guess (I was in fact asking about exactly this in another thread recently), but then if the install script tries to modify the data partition in any way (which remains encrypted with current recoveries under Android 12), you're almost certainly screwed and at best the installation will fail, at worst you'll have to reinstall everything.

Thanks for the reply guys..this already solved..with the help of @Laptapper in other thread. Using orangefox, dfe,

How to flash a Android 12 ROM without decryption problem?
I've been struggling to flash Android 12 without my internal storage to be unaccessible by TWRP... I simply can't decrypt my data and the only way to fix it is to format data and revert back to a Android 11 ROM. Did anyone manage to flash Android...

Previously I had a Redmi note 7. On the encrypted partition, I could also install everything in the same way. I am not a specialist, my knowledge has ended here.

Question Can't mount data partition in recovery

Hi, I have a question and hoping that maybe someone here might be able to help me.
I'm not a developer or anything like that and my knowledge is rather basic.
I truly tried my best reading, tutorials, forums, etc. and trying over and over again for many hours.
So the problem is this:
After new installation of arrowsOS and orange fox recovery on redmi note 10pro, recovery can't read/mount data or internal sd card.
Formating data or changing filesystem fixes this temporarily. Data now shows a size rather than 0mb and becomes mountable.
But unless the filesystem is f2fs (like ext4 or anything else) ROM won't boot. Goes straight back into recovery.
If I choose f2fs (readable by recovery after format), arrowsOS will boot again, but also will encrypt the partition somehow and the problem persists.
Next time I boot into recovery data, storage and sdcard are empty, data can't be mounted and is shown with 0mb size.
In orange fox telegram group I was informed that Android 12 is not supported nor will be any time soonish and I should get off their chat... but I tried twrp before and that didn't work either.
I'd really love to get this fixed before installing lots of apps onto the phone again. Because afterwards having to wipe and set up everything again will be a pain.
So does anyone here have any idea for me how to solve this?
Best regards
Eric

Switch to A11 ROM or wait. There's no recovery capable of decrypting anything based on Android 12 right now

If you wanna stay decrypted like me, you can flash DFE....
Then no more issues with internal memory.....
If you use orange fox, then you can set a recovery password and have a bit more security.

OK thanx, so I see what's the problem.
If it's like this I'm thinking about just waiting it out. Cause I kinda started liking this rom
Do you recon that once an updated recovery comes out it will be able to read it just like that?
Or would I have to wipe/format data again?
Because in first case I could just consider living with the fact that my recovery doesn't work so well for now, knowing that earlier or later an updated version of recovery comes out and by flashing it my problem should be fixed.
But if I'd had to wipe/reformat or repartition /data again in order to make it work (whenever it can). it'd be a game changer.
Because the longer I use the phone the more apps and personal stuff will be on there

What's DFE?.....sorry just a newbie
If I flash that, would my data partitionstay decrypted forever or would there be a way to encrypt it later (once recoveries evolve) without loosing the data on it?

Question TWRP 3.7.0_12 fails to decrypt storage on stock A11?

Hi folks,
So, i'm still on the Stock MIUI 12.5.7 (Android 11).
Before upgrading, i just wanted to check out if TRWP works correctly, so i flashed the most recent official version...and to my surprise, it could _not_ decrypt the internal storage?
Also, in the Backup menu, the EFS and modem partitions have correct sizes, but the dynamic Super partiton is shown as ( 0 MB).
I thought there would be no more issues with such old ROMs...or maybe I'm missing something?
UPDATE:
After wiping data and resetting the phone, TWRP managed to mount the internal storage, as long as there's no PIN on it.
As soon as i enter a PIN in Android, the same PIN entered in TWRP fails to decrypt the internal storage.

Sounds like you need an OS reinstall preceded by data format, not wipe, to remove encryption. There is a Nebrassy 3.6 version that decrypts for A11.

It works with Orange fox.
Well, now that i have done a "format data" it works with TWRP, as well.
I moved to a xiaomi.eu rom, and everthing works fine, so far.
Also note that TWRP seems to always get replaced by the stock recovery when on a stock rom from Xiaomi.
