What bug exactly are you talking about?

Just a quick summary-

For example, others can test it and add "voice" and communicate directly to LuK, to report them efficiently (with logcat, etc...).
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] htchd2sucks:
I tested and it's true.

It was the same once in PE rom on another device, the developer added something tofix that because it was a null pointer exception.

I don't think we need to provide a logcat for that, it's simple to reproduce. I still take an illustration to show it's also the same issue.

PS: Would be great if you tell exactly the path to the setting because it's not always obvious where that is...

Settings/Display/Advanced/Screen Saver (clock), then the setting blue icon on the right. Click that would crash instead of showing the additional settings page.

hi guys,

Just flashed but cant fully start LOs because it wants a password, when I enter, it says: Data could not be decrypted, reset to factory etc etc. I cleared the caches, reflashed but nope...?? what the heck?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Creative9170:
Please search your problem before asking, this topic is full of answer to this question! You should factory reset from twrp , it will erase internal storage and all of your files.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] zsolarewicz:
Sorry, found it under slightly different keys but ok.

Btw. LOs 16: hows finally with battery drain and NFC?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] htchd2sucks:
Actually, you have possibly told the user a big misleading information with heavy consequences.

As a reminder of a bug I mentionned a while ago (which apparently you haven't searched yourself well enough prior to comment), there's a bug where the Android system on LOS16 will inform that the pin is correct but Data could not be decrypted, is corrupted, and you have to click the button to reset the phone.

That happens when the pin provided is wrong. A simple reboot into system again, putting the right pin, and the problem disappears.

A simple way to validate the password, can be to test it in TWRP recovery, since it's the password used to encrypt /data (userdata) and that's also require to decrypt in recovery.

If the issue is different, then indeed something else has to be done. I just wonder how suddenly the data got corrupted to that point, that seems highly unlikely. And in my experience with LOS16 on Capricorn, that false alarming situation was never true, it was always about the pin or the cache (occured 3 times here, in 1 month period).
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] zsolarewicz:
Well, thanks for response. Did NOT succeeded w/LOs16 on my capricorn /although made all these manouvers w/deleting everything... I flashed LOs15.1 instead, then tried LOs16 on it but stuck. Cant think of ANY pin I set neither password. I did not set any security credentials on the phone.

Now returning to MIUI dev global 8.12.13.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rible:
Just format data from TWRP dude(format, not wipe), it has been mentioned a thousand times already.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] zsolarewicz:
Just wrote it above. I did. Nope.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] rible:
You said factory reset, not format data, it's different, and in this case it matters. Look for an format data option in TWRP.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] htchd2sucks:
What the user rible is telling you is "by doing the format /data (option visible in recovery), you are doing to remove the encryption and the entire userdata". That way, it won't have problem decrypting the /data partition and can proceed with installing Android system.

Clearly, you have not said that you did a "format", on the other hand, I'm not sure that's really required. If you really never put a pin, then it should not ask you for one now.

It looks like the bug I had, even with the right encryption...

Formatting, and reencrypting the phone would be a workaround, but that implies losing your data... And I don't think that was required in my case...
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Clanos:
Or, as a simpler alternative, go to Security settings, set a new text based password, then boot into recovery and use that new password to decrypt the partition.

It's asking for a password, not a PIN or a pattern. If you don't know it, that's ok, make a new one.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] htchd2sucks:
I'm in a rush so I haven't think exactly about this topic. I think it's not possible to boot into system without the password/pin, since it's /data it's needed by android system too. It's usually prompted prior to load system...
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] adeelvirgo1984:

Just go to this post and your problem will be solved. Just remove encryption from your phone with all steps i told, everything will be fine.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Clanos:
Agree. If system has been wiped and happens to be encrypted then there's no rom to boot. But he said he'd reverted to a different rom so I assume he can reach settings to perform a password reset.

The advice to format partitions and so on is a clumsy solution unless you're looking to remove encryption.

---------- Post added at 12:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

He can boot a rom without the password, he'd just use his pin/pattern at boot to decrypt /data

Hi guys! I have a problem ! I installed this rom and my device is singing the ringtone ! I don't know why ! Please help me ! It stops after reboot but starts randomly!
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] LuK1337:
... Encryption doesn't even work on my builds.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Clanos:
My experience is different. I installed PE ROM after resetting the device with MiFlash. I'm not sure which encrypted my data partition. I assume PE did.

None-the-less after setting up PE, with a pattern password, I went to TWRP and was asked for a decrypt password. I was confused. I researched. I saw I needed to trigger a cryptfs password change to something I knew. I saw someone had achieved this by booting to system and changing to a non pin/pattern password, as this apparently also generated new encryption keys.

So, I reboot my phone to system, input my pattern password to decrypt and change to a non pin/pattern password. I go to TWRP and am able to decrypt within recovery.

I can see you have spent more time on this than I needed to. I just wanted to clarify my experience and therefore advice I was offering.

Finally, I wonder if using the default password 'default_password' would have sufficed. I assume it is full and not file encryption present. Ref: https://source.android.com/security/encryption/full-disk

I can confirm that there is issue on initial setup with gapps... but I see it after connecting to WIFI. After few tries, it will go to next step of setup.

Regarding smoothness of LOS 16 and battery life, I can highly recommend latest Linaro Floppy Kernel for 9.0. Battery life is great, and smoothness is on level of November builds.

Thanks for the feedback. Let me ask (risk to get some negative after, but anyway):

I'm now at pepsy kernel. In all instructions i see that i need to flash ROM before flash kernel when i'm moving to another kernel. OK

I need to make all wipes and format data when i'm moving? Or just recovery-flash ROM-etc? Without any wipes etc?

What is the perfect way to move from another kernel?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] predragiPredrag:
As long as you don't ask about stuttering media play or sound (which is related to firmware) you are good :D

As I remember, flashing Kernel is easiest mod, just flash it and clean dalvik and cache. I never came across setup

that required clean flash before using diff kernel.

Indeed. Using the new build and so far all good. Noticed also battery improvements

However a problem appeared, that I never noticed and don't know if is my phone or the build, so I'm asking for others with the new build installed to confirm it or not.

Sometimes when using the camera app I listen weird noise's coming from the the camera it self. ( using last build from 28th stock kernel and Oreo fw 8/11/8)

Is my camera hardware going faulty or others experienced this also?

Is it possible to reinstall (or update with a newer build that I installed at the first time) gapps without the need to wiping everything? I'm asking this because for some reason Google assistant does not want the work anymore, the old Google now voice interface shows up when I speak "ok Google". I tried to clean the Google app cache/storage (that used to work sometimes) but didn't help me. I also changed language to English (I speak Portuguese) to see if had something to do with it. Maybe I used some kind of bad gapps in the first time and then never worked, I don't have much clue.

Its hard to say, can you tell more, like how fast these noise are happening? Can you actually record them?

I tested the camera for like 1 minute, not heard anything. Never heard an unusual noise either.

There's a newer firmware for "global" also (fw_capricorn_miui_MI5SGlobal_8.12.20_ff1da0e010_8.0.zip). Not sure if it's related.

What is laggy exactly?

After reading your comment, I tried various settings, options, apps, switching between them, launching a video in VLC, opening camera, checking galleries of photos...

Everything seems smooth and quick...

You have cleaned flashed a while ago? You have recent fw? Maybe you have too many apps running?

It's hard to say, maybe your impression of lagginess differs than mine, as here it feels really smooth (everything I tried).

Lagg can be multiple things so we start from basic ones :) Try latest Floppy HMP Linaro kernel, and you will enjoy LOS with better battery life and without any lag. Few users reported that gaming is better with floppy than even November LOS, I am not playing games so I dont know :(

Only two issues that I came across are FP issue reported several pages back (when unlocking with pattern you need to long press FP to remove lock of FP) and Alarm sporadically not working when device is in deep sleep.

I checked and there's no "live wallpaper" by default. So I can not test.
