[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phoenix591:
If you check the require pin at startup option in security settings (not just having a pin set) then yes twrp will ask for it.

There's not a super clear way to retrigger it with stock. I recommend just making a backup with titanium and manually of any files on internal storage, reflashing the stock boot image (this unroots but leaves twrp alone, the important part is that it replaces the stock fstab which says hey /data needs to be encrypted) and then format data (wiping MAY work, I do know that normally it occurs after going through setup, not sure how any existing files on /data may affect it) once through initial setup and on the home screen you can reboot into twrp and reroot (I know magisk for sure doesn't disable encryption when flashed when twrp can read it, no idea about SuperSU).

It maybe possible to manually trigger encryption with a root shell/terminal by manually invoking vdc

For further reading, check out the AOSP documentation on encryption
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hotcell:
[MENTION=8639605]Phoenix591[/MENTION]

I guess the right question to ask would be how to re-enable encryption, step-by-step, without data loss, for H990ds owners that already have DirtySanta root, the old TWRP 3.0.2.1 for H990/elsa, have unencrypted memory, and updated their ROMs with kdzwriter, kernel with DOTS 1.4/1.5 and running Magisk 16.* (or SuperSU).

If I remember right, after enabling memory encryption on-boot password would be asked 30 times max, at maximal display brightness, after which, in case of 30 incorrect passwords entered, the factory reset procedure will be activated. That would mean any kid who obtained physical access to the phone can easily reset it without any authorization [?] Will your TWRP version allow factory reset without knowing FP boot password or encryption password?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phoenix591:
Yes it'll still let someone reset without knowing any passwords. The screen asking for the password has a cancel button and the twrp they'd have to go to wipe and format data (don't think the normal wipe would do it). Think if stock tries to wipe itl probably just boot into twrp.

I don't have any tested way to encrypt in place like I just said above, but it may be able to be done by manually invoking vdc, might be able to cook something up to do it in twrp too. When I've been testing I've just been backing up my apps with titanium backup formatting data and going through setup, then rooting and restoring.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hotcell:
In-TWRP cooking with inplace instead of wipe would be brilliant!!

Going through DirtySanta for H990 re-rooting, ROM downgrading with subsequent 2-step upgrading aren't very attractive. Besides, Titanium had trouble restoring BT (/system module) on H990ds + permission settings would be lost...

BTW is TWRP backup became at last 100% reliable after restored, including all apk permission settings?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phoenix591:
Wouldn't need to redo dirtysanta, just partition dl boot from the kdz of the fw you're on go through initial setup, then reflash magisk or supersu. With titanium I've been avoiding backing up and restoring system apps since I'm going between stock and lineageos often. But yeah in theory shouldn't be terribly hard to put together a simple small zip.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hotcell:
So looks like a custom TWRP recovery will remain after the initial encrypting setup after stock boot image extracted with kdzwriter -k switch, does it matter which version (security patch) of boot image restored? Without positive expectation of successful data partition encryption inplace, I'd not start the procedure knowing I'd have to do a lot of manual actions to restore the only working system... Are you using lineageos with H990ds, is a camera, second screen, diff parition layout, etc. already 100% ported?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phoenix591:
I'd try to match boot images with the system they go with, generally not too many changes but ...

I've a US996 is all myself, I have had several people who are using H990 say things are working well which it should because it's using the 99% the same kernel as the old 3.0.2 twrp (and one whose messed things up with lucky patcher and is finding odd issues) and I hear they're working on a lineage port for it behind the scenes, no second screen in lineage yet, but again there's talk it's being worked on too (though we've been teased once before).
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phoenix591:
[MENTION=1057334]hotcell[/MENTION] [MENTION=610204]will5[/MENTION] just finished testing a flashable zip that encrypts /data without data loss, works fine on lineage 14.1 (not really needed in lineage since theres a button in settings for it) and on stock. Tested once on lineage and twice on stock. For stock itl sit on the lg boot animation while encrypting. (Added to my twrp build page since its the only one that works with encryption)
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hotcell:
Wonderful news!

Could you please check if the sequence of actions to move to your TWRP with re-enabling encryption on stock ROM is right, thanks!

1. Go to old TWRP v3.0.2.1 for H990 and flash your TWRP image from 6th of April.

2. Reboot to new TWRP recovery.

3. From the new TWRP just flash encrypt.zip, wait for encryption done on boot animation.

4[needed?]. Restore stock boot image with kernel with kdzwriter -k option from the latest (any?) available stock ROM kdz for the device region.

5[needed?]Flash the custom kernel like D.O.T.S. v1.5.

6. Flash the latest Magisk. Reboot to the system.

Questions re preparing to the procedure:

Beginning encryption, standby for reboot

Using the default password so decryption will be automatic

To set to your lockscreen password, enable the secure startup or require pin at startup option, if not visible change pin/password

Encryption will begin in 15 seconds with a reboot (so you can read these)

For stock users it will stay on the LG boot animation while encrypting, LineageOS gets a progress bar

Should I first remove any fingerprints with associated startup password? What does it mean encryption will be made using default password? Isn't then anyone could easily decrypt the device file system, or the password should be changed later (when and how?)? If startup password is changed later, will the encrypted file system still be the same having the default encryption password?

QUESTION: Will the script in encrypt.zip work with non-default password and would TWRP also recognize it, what should be changed then?

Thanks!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phoenix591:
Just install my latest twrp build

Reboot recovery to load the new twrp

Flash the zip

Kernel doesn't matter

The way to input a password on the command line is a pain and while it's technically possible it's a not plain text.

Just enable secure startup->require pin/password on startup in fingerprints and security and the system will keep it synced to your lockscreen password/pin

Having it encrypted with the default password mostly just protects against someone ripping the chip out of the phone. It's exactly what stock does without secure startup enabled. When secure startup is enabled the system keeps the password synced to your lockscreen password. TWRP will ask for the password if it isn't the default, but it doesn't stop random people from going to wipe->format data to reset the phone, but they won't be able to just delete the lockscreen password and have full access to your emails files and apps like they would without passworded encryption.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hotcell:
I read from the link you gave us that there were reports that starting from Android 6.0 the password is not encoded hex but plain text. Had you tested this and Android 7.0 reverted this back to hex?

The question is Does such system password re-sync perform file system re-encryption on-the-fly? If not, at least in theory, using known default system password will open the entire file system, then the well known lockscreen password file can be just deleted and the system is open to use from normal system boot, or is it not so?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Phoenix591:
it is plain text actually I forgot the one test I did... The reason I set the script to use the password less encryption is because there's already a perfectly good way to set the password in the system (secure startup) and it's not super easy to get input in a flashable script, I just wanted to keep it simple.

It does change the encryption on the disk every time there's a password change, the password we input is the key to decrypt the key used to decrypt the data so its basically instant.

That whole page is all about the behind the scenes flow from start to finish of encryption on Android.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] hotcell:
Indeed.

From reading the page I got the Android full disk encryption limited to AES-128. 16 byte master key looks rather obsolete by today brute force standards though...

Firmware update.

Hello everyone, I have a question, I have a H990DS (V20-SEA Asia SG/Singapore) and my latest firmware is from 11/23/2017, I updated to the latest firmware via KDZ Writer and my question is: can I update via KDZ Writer to another firmware for H990DS from another region and to be a little more specific PHL Asia PH/Philippines? Would that cause any problems like bricking my device? Thanks in advance.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Redline:
Yes you can do this. I have done this to convert from Singapore to Taiwan firmware. As long as they are the same version or the one you want to convert to is newer, you should be okay. Use the flags in the OP to flash system, modem, etc to make sure 3G/4G works with the new firmware.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scaramonga:
OK. Need a little help guys :)

S6 Edge G925F on 7.0 branded EE UK rom, but I have unlocked device through legit code from EE themselves, all good.

Trying to flash BTU rom 'G925FXXS5EQG1_G925FBTU5EQF1_G925FXXU5EQCD_HOME.tar.md5' via Odin3, and it's a no go, as it just hangs at the 'HIDDEN' part in Odin.

'G925FXXU5EQFH_G925FEVR5EQE1_G925FXXU5EQF1_HOME.tar.md5', which is EE based, and flashes just fine, but I'm wanting an unbranded stock rom, with no EE ****, and also no 'custom' ****. I was under the impression that the BTU version gave this?, but it will not flash (at least the one above, which is latest) at all? Not interested in 'PAY' rubbish, nor 'FITNESS' trash, nor calling over WiFi.

Any ideas, or am I missing something?, like my brain! lol?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] callumbr1:
Any particular reason you want to flash BTU? The only difference is you won't have the my EE app and lookout.

You will lose voLTE and WiFi calling. Other than the removal of the couple of bloat apps nothing will change only you will lose some features.

Anyway if you want to go ahead it's very simple, you can either

•unzip the firmware and manually remove the hidden.img then repack and flash and it will pass.

Or

•flash this PIT file through PIT options in Odin whilst flashing the firmware. Enable repartition before flashing

https://mega.nz/#!rERH1LqK!QSYjirrXtPjKc1giOahnZI0BrWR2WXMg0GI3ZR3LLeY

Option 1 is easiest and more convenient.

[Windows Mobile Themes] Ridley:
I can run it perfectly by just installing the full version .cab to my device not storage card :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] NeoS:
Well, i guess then it's me, because it's still not working...

Let's review here:

wisbar advanced 3.0 installed on device

wisbar advanced desktop 1.3 installed on device

ff7 theme installed on device

No icons are added in the all program menu, just to settings menu called Theme manager.

When i start that i can select the ff7 theme Landscape, and it opens a blue screen with (i think) placeholders for icons.

What am i doing wrong?
[Windows Mobile Themes] theme freak:
Maybe yours is not a full version :confused:
[Windows Mobile Themes] NeoS:
Well, i downloaded it from ppc. So i guess it's full.

When i start the application (through explorer, mind you.) i can modify all stuff but i won't see the FF7 theme at all. Only a blue screen with some placeholders.

I can however edit the placeholders position and change the background.

Another thing: I guess my Polaris is Qvga, so this wouldn't work out pretty well anyways, right?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianyz:
The more I read the mode confused I get.

I have Samsung SM-530T Grand Prime (TMobile) that I rooted many months ago using Shinyside's method

https://xdaforums.com/grand-prime/development/kernel-root-root-sm-g530t-5-1-1-t3203476

It tripped knox, and naturally, I can not download updates from the phone. My last two phones never had any updates, so updates for this phone was never really a concern.

Now I would like to add the security updates.

I have downloaded the latest firmwares here

https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-grand-prime/SM-G530T/

The update also shows up in Smart Switch, but it complains about rooted phone...

So I have the option of Odin, Flashfire, or Smart Switch to update the phone.

Question is, what is the most reliable way to update the phone to the latest firmware without rendering it useless?

I don't see a way to download the OTA patches seperate. I've read that the flashfire option leaves the phone rooted, and just updates the rom, while others have stated they lost root and the phone was buggy after the update...

It's my only phone so I don't enjoy crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianyz:
For future reference for those trying this...

For me, flashfire didn't work. I tried to do a full backup and partial backup, but every time the phone would hang at the T-Mobile screen at reboot. Had to pull the battery and SD/SIM. Never tried flashing with it.

Unrooted via SuperSU. Still couldn't update due to custom system.

Ran smart switch and ran the update. Rebooted and had updated system, but no wifi.

So, ran Odin installing the latest .md5 from Samsung, rebooted with latest system and wifi.

Then rooted using cf autoroot, so now have the latest system with root.
