If carriers do so, how come it only happens on sense and not gpe? Are you saying carriers modify sense and neglect gpe phones? Carriers incorporate their own "tweaks" ?

How did you make out? Did file fixer work?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
No, I cant flash anything in twrp. It says "unable to mount data"? Have any ideas now? I wish I could get that file to work.

I'm also at work today and there is no way to RUU today, I really dont want to do that anyway
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
When it happened to me I had access the ext card. If you can see the card it should flash it. Maybe ask the dev that made the file if there is a missing step or something.

And most have had success with the ADB fix also. Just keep trying, i wish I was more help.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
Well, I can see the sd card but it fails at the flash, also do I need htc drivers to do the adb fix?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
Yes you do. The easiest way is to install HTC sync and then uninstall it. It leaves the drivers behind. But you should have all that set up already. You can't s-off otherwise. Just relax and think how you set up for Firewater, same process. The same stuff is still on your computer.

[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
I could do that without a pc other than downloading it right? But as far as twrp (adb route) Would I need to use ADB sideload in twrp?

You have a Walmart near you? You could get a micro SD card reader with USB adapter for only 10 bucks. Beats the hell out of having to ADB with Mac or use a PC. You could download the ROM to you Mac, put ROM on your micro SD and then place back in phone. Any electronic electronic store would have one. Worth 10 bucks

I have windows machine i know nothing about Mac ADB but i agree on windows its very easy. I just figured if sideload wasn't working, and sometimes it doesn't work, he could just load up on external SD card and get rolling.

The encryption bug is not fixed. Just happened to me out of nowhere. No unusual reboots. One hint was Poweramp just disappeared, gone. And when booting into recovery, recovery came up really, scary, slowly.

But I can also verify that this worked like a charm: http://invisiblek.chickenkiller.com/partition_fixer.zip

Flashed right up from my ext card, restored my back-up of Clean ROM, and BOOM!

[One (M8) Original Android Development] kennypow3rs:
You will probably have to reconvert to GPE to fix your phone with ADB, then follow this...

You came from GPE correct? The GPE partition is NOT the same as sense. In order to successfully flash CM you need to already be on sense or have a sense Hboot/bootloader. GPE partitions the file sytem different. I made a suggestion to you yesterday before you ran this rom. I honestly believe if you would have done what i suggested you wouldn't have ran into the bug. Here it is one more time so when you get your phone fixed you can run this rom properly.

If you're on GPE you need to flash the 1.54/1.58 HBOOT (i think you're on verizon so your verizon sense HBOOT).

Already have a sense rom and CM both on your SD card before you flash the HBOOT cause once you flash the sense HBOOT you will not be able to boot into GPE again it will just boot loop or show encryption bug.

Proceed to recovery, wipe everything except external SD and USB-OTG.

Then flash sense rom so you can get correct partitions. Once it boots up, go back into recovery and wipe again then flash CM. No one else coming from a SENSE rom complains about the encrytion bug.....

[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. Right now I just hope I can get my phone working again......

So I should flash in twrp to GPE then try to adb? If i RUU none of this would matter right? That would be Clean Slate correct?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
Yes, clean slate.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] R4INS:
So encryption bug only seems to be happening to people who did the GPE conversion? Is that why I haven't seen the bug?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kennypow3rs:
Yes RUU back into GPE and start over....

---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------

Yes, once you convert to GPE it changes the file system completely. I learned the hard way lol. You have to go back to sense before flashing CM. Im not sure why or the technical reasoning google partitions the file system different for GPE but they do. Its frustrating....
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
I didn't use it. It's happened to me twice. After the problem this morning, I flashed CM back from my back-up. Now that that I feel confident I can fix it I'm gonna see if there is something that triggers it. I think it has to be something with the mounts, more the lack of unmounting before disconnect.

Like when a card is being written to and pulled while a write is in progress, just thinking out loud.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
I'm back guys!!!!! I ruu'ed in fastboot. Weird thing was when my phone booted back up it still had supersu!!!!!! That made me happy. I then flashed twrp through flashify and restored a back up I made before this whole fiasco. Thanks again for everything!!!!
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
Update, I can make it happen on demand now.

On my my phone it's the Quick Boot app. I can use the power menu reboot/recovery 15 times in a row, never a hitch. Goes right into recovery and then reboots when I reboot it.

At first, when I booted into recovery with quick boot, every other time it would go very slowly into recovery, blank screen for 30-60 seconds, then go into recovery. reboot ok. Then it would go into recovery the same way, but this time it will tell you, "can't mount data/data media", and when reboot,

I get the Pwrd prompt. I can go back into recovery and flash the partition fixer, and bang, reboot fine.

So bottom line from this is,

When using power menu reboot into recovery works good.

When using Quickboot reboot into recovery, corrupts internal storage every time.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
welp.......thats settles it. I'm guilty of Quick Boot myself. That must be how mine did it
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
I read that it doesn't like sudden rebooting. It's funny, the simplest things.

I'm gonna keep using it without Quick boot, I'll bet it's fine.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] flyinj54:
Great find. Thanks for the effort with this issue. May i ask why you use the quickboot app when in developer options you can enable the same reboot options? Just curious if there is a benefit to quickboot app itself over using the power button and going into power menu.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
Because I paid for it and I'm a cheepo!:D
[One (M8) Original Android Development] FlawlesStyle:
Nice job with your investigation on the 'encryption bug', I was starting to see this all over, and it didn't make too much sense considering all the affected devices. I didn't want to chime in since I had never seen it myself, but I've also never used QuickBoot fwiw.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] heffzilla:
Now that you mention it, I used the twrp manager app to reboot recovery when I had my ext encrypt message.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
So lets narrow this down......Has anyone on here had their phone encrypted by NOT USING an app that reboots their phone?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
Also by using the virtual battery pull. It is well documented that the power+ volume up combo, usually for fixing a bootloop,

causes it also.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
Wonder if the above apps simulate that method using software?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
That would be my opinion also.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] nmil1484:
I have noticed the people using TWRP rather than CWM have reported the problem. Can this be mother factor?
[One (M8) Original Android Development] bill.allrobots.org:
Probably only because more of them use the TWRP manager app to reboot, not necessarily anything about the recovery.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
I use Philz touch, which uses CWM.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] R4INS:
I use twrp, no twrp app, no reboot apps. Never seen encryption bug. I've hard rebooted with power and volume up and never had it. When I go into recover I just shutdown the phone and power up and volume down.

Sounds like y'all are on to something.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
When it happened to me the first time, I used power+volume up, but I was in a bootloop.( I did something I'm sure disagreed with the framework,)

and when I did the key combo, it got me.

[One (M8) Original Android Development] kennypow3rs:
no dual cam in aosp yet may take a while before its implemented. It could also never make an appearance too. If you wanna take advantage of all your phones capabilities I'd suggest a custom sense rom tweaked to your liking like insert coin or android revolution. Dual Cam also still works on Google Play Edition.

[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
No, i'm on GPE until this gets sorted out. GPE is very reliable and stable on this phone. I trust it wont mess anything up.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] R4INS:
If what Kennypowers was saying about gpe converted people getting the encryption bug is right and the only time it happens then I doubt its a CM problem. Its honestly not their fault you changed the partition sizes on your phone. If its happening to sense people then yes it needs to be looked into further.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] kennypow3rs:
I can convert and reproduce the bug. Also I have a GPE Moto G that I play around with too and when coming from the moto aosp ROM I can flash CM fine but when on GPE ROM I get the encryption bug. It's not guessing its a known fact that GPE changes the file system and data partition. In fact if you read the GPE convert thread it states in bold that GPE and sense both format the system partitions different so its def not a cm problem. Simple solution, go back to sense first then flash cm and you'll get no encryption bugs.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] R4INS:
It really does seem to be the running trend with the bug. I got an m8 a few weeks ago so there were GPE zips by then and never did the conversion. The fact that I've never seen the bug with stock partitions helps further it.
[One (M8) Original Android Development] electric turd:
Interesting, so if I go back I need to flash sense then this. Wonder if that will prevent all encryption errors (quickboot, power+vol_)?

I'm on verizon so I didnt RUU GPE if that makes a diff? Does flashing through recovery do the same to partitions?

[One (M8) Original Android Development] pjim:
Update #2

24 hrs later, still using my restored backup, however it has been updated to the 06/13 nightly this morning.

No problems of any kind. After I stopped using QuickBoot, I have changed 4 different themes and fonts (trying to make it bootloop, can't do it)

Rebooted into recovery at least 25 times no problem, using the power menu of course. Wifi forgot the password at home once, and didn't do it again. In fact the more I use this rom the more fluid and stable feeling it becomes.

I am confident that it will be fine as long as it is shut down properly, no matter which rom you came from. I didn't use GPE, so that's out the window. When I first encountered the "encryption" bug I sideloaded a sense rom to fix it. But even when it booted it couldn't read the internal and asked for the pwrd. Shutting down abruptly is damaging the internal storage partition and the ROM just thinks it's encrypted because it can't mount or read it.

I'll update again tomorrow

You'll probably have to call your provider and have them reset your entire voicemail should take about 10 mins. If you had voicemails on a previous device and didn't clear them out from that device before going to new phone, you have the phantom voicemail notification lol. If you have your previous device still you can get back into that phone, check VM and it may go away. Call Sprint and tell them you need to reset your voicemail. Unless there's another way to clear them its the only way i know of dude...
