Decryption not possible

Hello guys,

I was running Havoc OS 2.5 fine. In order to update to Version 2.6, I updated TWRP to the newest version. Everything was OK.

Then I installed the new firmware and after rebooting into TWRP again, i am not able to decrypt my device any more. I wanted to do the Dirtyflash... but I think that's not possible any more ;)

No idea what happened, but I am not able to decrypt the data partition somehow... and I am 100% sure, that my PIN is correct.

Is there anything to get it running again? Or is a completely wipe the only way?

Thanks

UPDATE: After installing an older firmware version for Android 8.1, I am able to decrypt it again.

HowTo:

1. Download the old firmware for Android Version 8.1 from the website "xiaomifirmwareupdater.com"

I got the link for the old firmware, but I am not able to post external links in here until I have 10 comments. Therefore I have removed the https from the following Link:

2. Get the firmware on an SD card and boot into TWRP recovery. Skip the decryption (Press Cancel) and then click Install and select the older firmware.

3. Reboot into Android or TWRP

Now your PIN should work again

You don't have to wipe data.. just flash the old firmware and your device is working again.

Dwld the new twrp 3.3.1.0, open phone in fastboot,then

"fastboot boot (the recovery)", u may drag n drop the file in cmd or write its full name.

Try this if it works, if it doesn't, u have to do format data, only then it will mount the storage

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] dieler1337:
Your key / PIN for encryption/decryption is not the same as your PIN to unlock the device. But I wouldn't disable encryption anyway.. encryption is a good thing to have.. but it can be annoying as we both experienced -.-

Actually I am not sure what to do. Right now, I do not have enough time to take a closer look at it. But at end of July I will do a full backup of all my data and then I will try the firmware flash again and see if I still have the same problem.

I installed the Pie TWRP in the link via the TWRP app but when I try to boot to recover it just sits at the "Mi" screen. Anyone have a solution?

Also, how do I know which TWRP versions are compatible with Pie?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] xazakasrizava:
Okay because this thread is getting clogged with firmware update problems here's a detailed guide of what I did because it's actually a simple-ass procedure and I can't understand why everyone is having trouble.

1)First of all head to this site and download the latest firmware for our device and select global build. https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/#stable

2)Once downloaded, download the ROM and your preferred Gapps.

3) Download this recovery. https://sourceforge.net/projects/or...OrangeFox-R9.0-2-whyred-MIUI-Pie.zip/download

4)Now boot into TWRP and wipe both cache partitions, data (not internal storage), system, vendor.

5)First install the pie firmware you downloaded previously, next install the ROM+Gapps and finally install the recovery you downloaded (if I'm not mistaken it will automatically reboot into the new recovery)

6*) If you ever want to revert back to a Oreo based ROM simply follow this procedure again but instead download a Oreo firmware package from the link from step 1.

7*)Don't flash kernels or other ROMs that are based on older firmware, a bootloop will be inevitable.

VOILA YOU'RE ON PIE FIRMWARE WITH A WORKING RECOVERY. IF YOU WANT TWRP SOOOOO BAD, PLEASE JUST SEARCH THE RN5 PRO THREADS AND STOP SPAMMING THIS ONE BECAUSE IT WOULD REALLY SUCK IF THIS PROJECT GETS SHUT DOWN IN THE SAME MANNER AS PIXEL EXPERIENCE DUE TO CONSTANT UNRELENTLESS SPAMMING.

Hi..

I have flashed the pie recovery given in OP link. And firmware.

Then when I reboot to recovery it shows fastboot logo and when I boot into system its fine.

Why pie recovery is not booting and goes fastboot..

Update:

Pie recovery provided by OP is booting into fastboot.

Booted into system and Installed twrp 3.3.0 through flashify. Through twrp 3.3.0 Installed pie firmware, havos is 2.6 and wiped cache and dalvik. Booted into system. Latest pie havoc with latest firmware is booted successfully.

Again tried flashing twrp 3.3.1-1 pie twrp, but it rebooted recovery into fastboot.

Booted into system and flashed Orange fox pie recovery through flashify. And recovery booted successfully. Now using the same.

Donno why twrp 3.3.1-1 pie recovery didn't boot.

Hello, again I'm looking to update Havoc OS from 2.5 to 2.6. I have a bootloop when I install the update with TWRP as usual. My current version of TWRP is 3.3.1-0 (the latest on the website of TWRP).

I looked at the many questions and answers in this thread but each time it's to install Havoc OS 2.6 from MIUI by also installing the pie firmware (I think I don't need to do this because Havoc OS 2.5 was also based on pie but it works perfectly), which deletes all the data. Could someone tell me how to install the latest version of TWRP since it seems important (I've seen some people speak about the version 3.3.1-1, which seems to support pie or something like that) and how to install this update without deleting all my data, which I care about ?

Thank you very much in advance

My steps to install Havoc 2.6

I followed instructions by fry3000

1. Boot in recovery

2. choose install->image->select twrp provided for pie (search in the forum)

select recovery and flash. DO NOT REBOOT go back initial screen

3. choose install->firmware pie DO NOT BOOT TO SYSTEM go back to initial screen and choose reboot to recovery

4. New TWRP will boot

5. Flash HAVOC 2.6

6. Reboot to Havoc and it will take some time to boot.

7. Enjoy havoc 2.6

So far working perfectly dirty flashing, however I do not have root or different kernel, so experience can vary.

Note:

+ If you do not flash new twrp with new firmware it will loop.

Finally, thank you dev for bringing this fantastic ROM to whyred.

Well, there is no official twrp 3.3.1-1 for whyred.

3.3.0-0 and 3.3.1-0 are the latest and both can be used to flash the pie firmware. The Twrp link the op gave may have been corrupted.

I did a dirty flash to the new pie upgrade and there wasn't much difference from the oreo based firmware rom. The camera changes weren't funny as I have a perfect Gcam 6.2 that everything works with a MIUI can installed by default.

To dirty flash to pie firmware,

I flashed the pie firmware first,

Flash the new update via Twrp using updater without first flashing the pie firmware will cause boot loop.

Wipe cache.

If you flashed the recovery 3.3.1-1 given by the op and got stuck without recovery,

Use adb and fastboot (search xda on how to use it)

If your device is on Anti rollback 4

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img command won't work.

fastboot boot twrp.img should be used to boot into twrp recovery. From the recovery flash the same twrp and reboot recovery. Now you've got your recovery back.

If you want to go back to 8.1 based firmware (like me)

Just flash 8.1 firmware and flash system.

I am going back to Oreo based firmware because it was perfect for me and if ain't broke, why fix it.

I'll still come back to pie firmware maybe next month (with clean flash - which is the best option) but for now, havoc 2.5 is great for me.

Okay I figured it out. Flashing back V10.3.1.0.OEIMIXM Oreo firmware fixed it. I don't know why the phone got encrypted from the Pie firmware but I'd stay away from it now. Especially since the fail message for the 12th June build says you need this Pie firmware to update. Maybe the devs and maintainer could shed some light on this one.

The orange fox recovery doesn't boot into it. I tried to flash it via official TWRP app as well TWRP 3.3.1.0 recovery. It just sits at the MI logo

Edit: Never mind, flashed the recovery in your link which was basically MIUI recovery. Had to flash another orange fox recovery for custom ROMS.

Link if anyone is interested https://sourceforge.net/projects/orangefox/files/whyred/OrangeFox-R9.0-1-whyred.zip/download

Update: I've followed the steps above and got into Havoc 2.6 but there seems to be a problem. The device boots alright but the recovery is locked behind a password from mounting the storages. I tried removing my pin and setting it up again. This issue persists with both TWRP 3.3.1.0 and Orange Fox recovery. They don't seem to be accepting the default password of my device. Any thoughts on this?
