I flashed FOS thinking it will decrypt upon seeing that forced encryption patch with default kernel, my bad. I should have read the thread fully. Now how can I decrypt this one ? Should I use fastboot format userdata and back to twrp and wipe both data and Int storage ? should I be fine ? But Since FOS uses Systemless I guess It will encrypt again :confused:

Can't we have the Systemless with decrypted ever with any CustomROM, FOS dev states that forced encryption is disabled so with Ssytemlesssu the encryption should be off right after this method ??

With custom kernel flashed and SuperSU system only we can stop this encryption ?

I'm thinking to flash a 3.2.6 first from OnePlus since I'm on 3.2.7, format fastboot cmds and then wipe from twrp to fix the storage size then flash Sultan's CM13 then flash a SystemSuperSU should I be good decrypted ?

Those OnePlus images don't flash recovery too right ? found from OP that O2 recovery is optional and is seperate, TWRP flashes IMG so all good :o

Apologies for the questions, I'm new to OnePlus.

Thanks.

UPDATE

Okay I scrweed it up, Now my OP goes to TWRP but doesn't boot back to the OOS - here's what I did...

- Did a fastboot format userdata on the encrypted FOS..

-Copied the 3.2.6 and flashed the zip.

-Flashed the CM13 Sultan Zip, OpenGapps, SueprSU system. CM boot animation wont change tried 2 times for 5 mins...

-Did a fastboot format userdata again

-Flashed back the 3.2.6, doesnt get post that 1+ freedom OS bootscreen (flashed back the OOS bootscreen, MTP working, tried flashing again nope no luck with OOS 3.2.6)

-Now trying with the official twrp...damn wtf no progress at all tried FOS with EX and Tried CM13 nope nothng working..previously it booted to the animation and didn't get past it now just stuck at boot logo like a rock....

-Tried again with fastboot erase userdata and then fastboot format userdata and then wipe everything from TWRP and then reboot to recovery, flash the OOS 3.2.6 Zip, no sign of booting Boo !! All the Fastboot, MTP everything works except the one that I want. Is it like the backup or what ? I didn't needed any data as it was a new phone.

Any ideas, please ? charged the phone to 80% too no luck, I really really miss Nexus what a shame.

Tried this....http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3/help/stuck-logo-flashing-rom-t3422304 nothing at all...

[MENTION=5569820]nikhilsnigam[/MENTION] how did you fix this, It's too bad man wth Is this a hardware bug or what ?

Update 2

: Unbricked using Method 2 from Unbrick guide, Posted there. Trying now to decrypt again.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
Wasted my whole day decrypting this. I tried to do this next -

Fastboot format userdata and reboot on 3.2.6 and upon reboot still says encrypted.

If I flash the SultanCM+Gapps + SuperSU 2.78 System without booting into the OOS (not checking the state of encryption) it would hang at cm cid animation first and If I reboot, again I have to boot from the Method 2 of the Unbrick guide from 3.1.x to again 3.2.6 from twrp and repeat. WTF is this HELL, Can I get some help please.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
This is crazy. Same happened to me. Turns out you cant boot roms on unencrypted storage. Tried and tested atleast 20 times. Unencrypting breaks something and doesn't allow you to boot into other roms except twrp backups.

Everytime I had to restore my phone back with method 2.I finally gave up(for now) and using modified twrp to install roms on encrypted storage amd works like a charm. I just wont be able to use multirom.

Another method which I think should work is use method 2 from unbrick guide. After flashing is done do not boot the phone instead boot to bootloader, flash modded twrp, reboot modded twrp, copy system supersu zip or any custom kernel. Flash custom kernel, flash supersu, wipe cache and dalvik cache, reboot. This should force decryption on boot.

[MENTION=3358582]Ashtrix[/MENTION] let me know about your progress with decryption
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
Basically it's not decrypted, It stays Encrypted after the Fastboot command SO we are basically bricking the phones ourselves..because of the stupid OOS. Sorry for the tone.. Really It got my nerves since 12hrs I was stuck in this LOOP.

Yeah It works flawless when you flash a ROM onto the Encrypted storage....This is a fresh update coming as I type - I flashed the CM Sultan from 3.2.6 Encrypted after booting into CM then to Fastboot mode then Fastboot command, I Finally got decrypted !!

I guess we cannot decrypt the Oxygen stock unless you flash a Custom kernel like EX or any and then do this command to disable the forced encryption. Damn Now I get It, No need of SuperSU I guess, Since I'm running the Sultan CM13 Decrypted without any SuperSU, Since His kernel is patched.

But the kicker is I don't get why the FreedomOS didn't do the trick, Maybe because I had used the SuperSU and FOS installs only Systemless SuperSU and thus defeating the purpose of the Fastboot command.

That's my theory from this experience...

No need to do anything that timewasting just read my posts you will understand...

Boot to CM and flash a custom kernel if the Forced Encryption is enabled or Systemless root with stock kernel -> this part is tricky to understand, basically the kernel has to be patched and no systemless as the OP says. Two should be satisfied.

So for you just flash the SultanCM or any Rom like RR then flash a Custom Kernel or leave if kernel is patched and check for Systemless SU, Systemless SU and Decryption part I don't know whether they can get together or not.Hope you get it.. :)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] clintonbugz:
Currently im on Freedom OS decrypted

If I want to install CM roms do i have to follow the unbrick method?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
even i did the same. decrypred sultans cm but if i try to flash any other rom after that it wont. Same result. stuck at boot screen.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
Dang I was happy that the problem is solved...now what is this again...someone with more knowledge should chime in whether its a HW or the FW issue..:(
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
Back to square 1 eh [emoji23]

You should try my other method I mentioned. It should work. I can't because dont have access to my laptop.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
Now I flashed the Systemsupersu and now I got the bootanimation loop..

Is it only us who are trying to run the phone decrypted or Our phones are broken ?

I've asked by friend who also has Op3 to try to reproduce this, But he's not willing to take risk, maybe he will try in a couple of days..
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
This is some strange behavior. Anyways I am quite happy with modded twrp running on encrypted storage. I am abke to flash all roms. No multirom however.

Not a big deal for now. But boy, I am gonna find out as soon as I get time.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
Are you running Systemroot with CM13 Sultan ?

This is horrendous, I will RMA it If I don't get this sorted out & happens to my device only....Had to wipe all partitions from twrp and flash the cm13 again without anything then It booted.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
sultancm13 doesn't need supersu to be flashed

What I used to do is.

-Flash stock from method 2

-flash twrp, wipe, flash op3lite,

-wipe, flash sultan rr

-and then decrypt using fastboot

-OS would be fine now but If i try flashing another rom, stuck at boot logo.

Twrp restore works

Did you manage to unencrypt on Miui ROM?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] fp1707:
Never tried
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
Ok, I got the CM13Sultan booted and decrypted running and only with the Systemless SU, I think SuperSU system breaks here and won't boot with the SultanCM, for RR I have to flash the 3.2.4 again, I'm not doing this work again, this is really sad OP needs to make the Camera and FPS HALs available this reflashing buisiness with 1.2Gig files is a messy job, that's what I feel :rolleyes:

I appreciate systemless root as It doesn't mess with the SElinux but this Decryption thing is so confusing business with OP3.. I really want to see If this is with us only or other OP3's also..Gotta read the MultiROM thread now, see how things are going on there.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
why are you flashing the whole firmware? there is already sultanised RR available which works on 3.2.6+ firmware
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
Yeah I saw that But there seem to be some issues with that and RR, So I dropped the whole RR idea, Finally I got the Cm13 running systemless root + Xposed decrypted. Stays decrypted after that, Somehow the Systemroot won't work.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Iceyogurt:
Systemless SuperSU didn't encrypt my phone again. What I did is that I used /data/.supersu file with command below in it,

SYSTEMLESS=true
BINDSYSTEMXBIN=true
KEEPVERITY=false
KEEPFORCEENCRYPT=false
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
I think the Bootloop is because of the SELinux Enforcing kernel [MENTION=5569820]nikhilsnigam[/MENTION]. As you said flashing a customkernel which has permissive should allow us to run the SystemRoot too.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
i dont think so. It does not bootloop. It simply doesn't boot. Both are different things.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ashtrix:
I was saying about the SystemSU. It causes bootloop with the SultanCM atleast with the ROM based kernel...really weird behavior. Did you try anything new ?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
system ui never bootloop for me

Did you notice an increase in performance and / or battery life with the unencrypted OP3?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] nikhilsnigam:
there is hardly any difference in performance or battery life.

Main benefit is in using multirom.

twrp backup and restore is faster.

Also booting into recovery is quite faster compared to encrypted.

That may be the problem.

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] xkhen0017:
Mind telling the solution for future references? ????
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] ach3fck:
So what i understood is that the modified partitions cause this to happen when using format userdata command, and the easiest solution is to use Msmdownloadtool(from Mega Unbrick guide) to restore to stock partitions, and when download is finished, boot to fastboot without booting into OS and flash Twrp then flash any kernel that doesnt force encryption and you should be fine.

Do I have To ADB Pull isnt the TWRP BackUp enough??
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] SquireSCA:
What's the benefit of this? It makes the phone less secure, and you gain roughly 1% storage read/write performance, which is absolutely imperceptible without some synthetic benchmark telling you there is a difference?

I decrypted older devices where it made a small difference, but from everything that I have read on this device, there is no real world performance benefit, and it makes your data less secure...
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] marqobazua:
Could someone help me? I decrypted my OP3 to install the TWRP multirom and i did a format data in twrp and then flash supersu to keep the device decrypted and i succeded, but now i dont want root.. if i do an unroot in the supersu app will my device still be decrypted? or will go back to encrypted?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] SquireSCA:
1) There is no real world performance benefit to being decrypted on this phone.

2) But no, removing root should not change it now that it is decrypted. The only way to get it back I think would be if you reformatted the storage or something... just removing root won't hurt it.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] marqobazua:
Thanks i didnt do it for the performance i just want to use multirom.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] SquireSCA:
Gotcha. Disable root and you should be fine. Wasn't aware that multiRom needed a decrypted file system.

Hello.

I've succesfully decrypted my phone using this guide. But after that, I can't acces my cache partition. No apps can use it and, above all, folders like DCIM/camera cannot be written into. But I fixed permissions in adb.

But the greatest problem is that I can't use my cache partition, even if reparied filesystem in twrp. Why is that?

le : also, does it matter what supersu I use? systemless or not?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jamesst20:
Trying the guide from OxygenOS Nougat.

I will report if there is any issue. The only issue I faced as of now (it's restoing data), is that I had to reformat userdata as well from TWRP because it wouldn't reconize the whole 64GB. Only 23GB would be reconized for UserData

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] jamesst20:
Except the fact that I can no more take pictures (camera), everything else seems good.

Unsure if it is because of Multirom though

encrypted again

i tried also to flash super su after format userdata but still encrypted.

why this problem?

maybe is my google cloud restore backup? because without that, i got decryption. maybe only a sensation?

Then it says "* unknown directory" or smth like this

use

adb push . /sdcard/

from the folder where your backup is placed to copy the files back to your phone.

---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

For those who have only around 30gb of internal storage,

1) Boot into recovery

2) Factory reset

3) Format data

after that you will have your bought storage back (64/128gb)

Hi,

I've got a very strange and annoying problem. I've got a Nexus 5X and a 2008 BMW Z4 3.0si Roadster with a removable 3.5mm audio cable.

I've tried my Nexus 5X with 3 different cable on a lot of other car, hifi stereo and earphone and it always works (the sound go to the other device the way it should work).

I've tried 5 different phones on my BMW and the sound go to the Z4 speaker the right way.

But when I try to connect my Nexus to the BMW 9 times out of 10 the phone doesn't recognize it and continue to play the sound on the phone speakers. The strangest thing is after that half the time when I remove the cable from the car but keep it on the phone it recognize the cable and stop playing music on phone speakers. At this time I can connect it again to my BMW and then the sound go to the car speaker.

I can't understand anything about this problem and it's driving me a little bit crazy. Sadly no Bluetooth on my lovely Z4.

Anyone as an idea ?

Thank

Did you try pressing really hard on the plug? It is a very tight fit to the point you feel like you might be breaking the port, but it loosens over time.

Yeah of course otherwise it wouldn't work on my hifi stereo because I use the same cable.

The reason I ask is it still works if not plugged in all the way, just the connection is not that reliable. Quite a few people though they had it plugged in all the way and they were getting sound, but sometimes sound would switch back to the phone. It turned out they really needed to push in the cable really hard.
