I tried to do a fresh install of the Oreo update but now I got a boot loop and in the TWRP all my files are encrypted

The TWRP does not ask me for any kind of pin or password.

Can anyone help as I can not install anything and I''m stuck.]
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] SolarPlexus:
In that case you have only one possible option: backup your files with the solution which is described in the link I have posted one time ago, and after that, make a complete wipe of all data, and reflash the Oreo... No other way...

Thx that helped me to decryption the device.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] CaptShaft:
I ran into a lot of the same or similar problems you fine folks here did when I recently upgraded to LineageOS 15.1 [Android 8.1 Oreo], from one of the OOS-based No Limits ROM's which was based upon Android 7.1. Initially I was unable to make it work, and I crashed out the entire data partition in the process.

I had to abort the upgrade the first time around I tried it. I was able to recover my TWRP backups after having to format the entire phone because I copied those backups off of the device onto my computer. Apparently you can't jump straight from Nougat to Oreo without going through the official ROM.

The second time around I was able to make it work. This is what I did

You have to first back up all of your SD card contents off of your phone, and also back up your applications and apps settings using Titanium Backup. It wouldn't hurt to backup your current Nandroid images - all TW RP items - onto your computer. That way you can go back if you have a problem.

Next you have to acquire the official OxygenOS ROM and run the install of that in TWRP. You will format everything beforehand, including the internal storage.

You then boot into OOS, then shutdown and go back to TWRP. Doing this install of OOS upgrades the boot loader and modem and other requisite parts of the operating system of the phone so that it will accept Oreo-based ROMs. This is a one-way process, by the way; it is quite difficult or impossible to go back to any Android 7.1-based ROM's.

After this, you go back to TW RP and again format everything. Then you must copy over and install the Oreo ROM of your choice, in this case I used LineageOS 15.1. It should work then.

After boot up and initial set up, you copy over and selectively reinstall some of your applications using Titanium Backup to restore some data settings that you had earlier.

Sadly now the only way TWRP reads my data partition is if I turn off the security features in the ROM - no PIN, no password, no pattern - before rebooting into recovery. It doesn't matter what type or brand of TWRP I am using. It sees that partition is encrypted, but it will not accept the correct password to decrypt it. I'm using the latest Blu_spark TWRP.

This leads me to believe that there are some critical differences between the way android 7 and android 8 handle encryption and decryption, and/or how TWRP handles that process. TWRP has most of this figured out now, but not entirely. This is why it is there so much pain and heartache of people here that lost all their data because of quirks during the upgrade process. This stuff is really a PITA, but there it is. Thankfully we are most of the way there now, but I suspect we will have to have some minor upgrades to the ROMs and/or the recovery in order to get full TWRP functionality without jumping through a lot of hoops.

That's my two cents worth. Your mileage may vary.

Can you send it to me, and I can try to get it working again? :cowboy:

New TWRP which can decrypt data for Oreo 8.1

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] bondra1216:
I had similar issues with TWRP (device was not bricked though). In short, i was following this guide and must have made a mistake (or installed the wrong version of TWRP maybe?). I thought I had messed up by setting a PIN on my device at the wrong time, which I thought encrypted the phone, but what I realized was I actually needed the device to have a PIN set prior to completing some of the steps because TWRP wouldn't ask for the PIN unless it was set on the device, and if it wasn't set, i noticed during flash of TWRP there was a message that said "encrypted *** found" and TWRP failed to flash the TWRP zip to the phone. Once I set PIN, i could install TWRP zip, but after booting to recovery, it could not (and still cannot, despite removing PIN) read the contents of the internal storage (/sdcard) as it is encrypted.

What I realized was, (even though TWRP is installed as my recovery - Version 3.2.1-2) If you BOOT TO TWRP via adb via "fastboot boot twrp.IMG" (yes, the same version of TWRP), TWRP can now magically read the SD card contents and I can see the Magiskv16.zip file.

I'm actually afraid to flash it now because I heard that if you flash Magisk without also flashing a signed boot.img, you end up with a boot loop/soft brick, which I think is what maybe has happened to a few people on this thread, but I cannot say for sure. What you CAN do though, to those that cannot access their TWRP backup file because its encrypted and you didnt copy it to PC, is boot to the TWRP.img via fastboot, find your backup, and copy it over to your PC so you at least have it to flash once your issue is resolved.

Disclaimer: I am no expert, just a noob navigating these issues with the rest of you, but I hope my info helps, and if I'm wrong about anything here, please correct me or provide additional guidance.

My question is: Given that I am on the latest version of 7.1.2 (yes, this is the version of android I want to run), I dont know if I need the signed boot.img or not. Does anyone here know the answer? Since I have my backup handy on my PC, I can try flashing Magisk and not worry about bricking, correct?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] CoCoGirl886:
Bringing your thread back again Michael, lol.

I'm having the same issue except it wasn't from trying to get Oreo. My touchscreen stopped working and I followed a solution to delete the gatekeeper keys related to the lockscreen. That fixed my touchscreen issue but now my phone is encrypted. I am able to boot up the phone, but it is just a blank screen and it doesn't seem to connect to any data or files. I can't set a new pin either. In twrp mode, it asks me to enter a password, which I have never set. Any idea how I can set a new pin to fully load my phone, or to get past the trwp password area without reformatting?

I read some of the posts in this thread about dirty flashing a rom, but other posts that says it somehow wiped the internal drive? :(. I feel like my data is still intact (I can see the wallpaper and all my settings), but I just cannot access it. If I were to dirty flash the same rom that's on my encrypted phone, would that theoretically decrypt my data and access it without deleting anything?
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Michael1200:
It's hard to tell if that would fix your problem. In my case, it did the opposite (wiped my complete internal storage). Which android version do you have and from which TWRP version are you trying? It's odd that TWRP asks for a PW if you never set one, but was your phone encrypted before? Try some other TWRP versions like blu_spark or latest, maybe it will fix your problem. I just don't get what exactly you did that your phone self-encrypted. How can your touchscreen just suddenly stop working? Deleting internal keys seems like a bad idea now. :P
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] CoCoGirl886:
I have android version 7.1.1 and trwp 3.1.1-0. Are the blu-spark and latest twrps made for oreo sytems? Because I'm still on nougat. Did it wipe your system because you used a different rom from the one you have on your system? I'm wondering if i use the exact same rom and version, maybe it would work? :confused: But I'm scared to try and lose all my data :crying:

I have no idea how the touchscreen stopped working by itself either! Very strange! Even stranger was when my touchscreen started miraculously started working again after deleting the keys! I have read other people having the same problem and they had to get their motherboard replaced. But I guess my issue wasn't a hardware one? The last thing I did was take a photo and then click on the gallery icon. Then the phone stopped responding to any touches. I restarted it thinking it would fix the problem but the touchscreen still didn't work. And that's how i became stuck on my bootup lockscreen that I couldn't unlock since the screen didn't work. It didn't work in trwp either. I finally got an otg cable, which didn't work on the normal startup screen, but worked in trwp. So I was able to draw the pattern to unlock and access my data. This was probably where I should've backed it up :(. But I stupidly wanted to get past the lock screen so i can load up the phone completely and make titanium backups.

I think deleting the keys worked for older versions because the keys would regenerate upon reboot. But it doesn't on newer android versions... so now I can't get into either my normal startup screen since there is no password left to enter or into trwp without entering a password that I don't know. What a nightmare! :rolleyes:
[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] manishsoni7689:
I am on the latest OOS beta 11 + latest Bluspark twrp.

When I use any security feature like PIN, password or pattern and boot to TWRP, it asks for the password to decrypt data. Even if I put the same password/PIN, it fails and doesn't allow me in.

Then I force shutdown my phone, remove all security feature and all fine.

Any solution for this ? Thanks in advance.

[OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers] Michael1200:
Have you tried various TWRP versions? It's a twrp thing, you need the correct version corresponding with your android version. Should be all fixed already normally? Back then oreo was new so there was no correct twrp available which would be able to decrypt it.

What twrp ? android version? Anyway ....

For decryption is needed "Format data" (it's different from "wipe data"...You will need to backup your data etc..)

Just,you need to read carefully for decryption, what is "no_verity_op5.zip" or

"dm-verity & forceencrypt disabler" etc...

What I'd prefer is the ability to see my nav icons only across the entire system, across all apps, but make the background of the nav bar transparent. Using no themes. Stock. Does that make sense?
