Encryption Unsuccessful

I've done everything correctly using this guide and the dirtycow github link, but no matter what I still get the "Encryption Unsuccessful" message.

It tells me that the password I entered was correct, but the data is corrupted and that I need to factory reset my phone. Pressing the reset phone button brings me to TWRP.

Really hope I didn't kill my phone...how do I fix this?

---------- Post added at 05:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 AM ----------

I give up. How do I bring this back to stock

One correction, on the step "adb push twrp.img" , need to add " /sdcard/".

Worked great. Now running stock 30c with mk2000 kernel, rooted with magisk. Thanks for the writeup!

You need to follow the twrp recovery startup instructions now, flash no-verity etc...

You need to follow the twrp recovery startup instructions now, flash no-verity, format data....

Then grab the oreo 30c zip from the tmobile g5 xda forum and flash it from twrp
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Asdfguy86:
I did do all of that stuff as well, but it still would give me the Encryption Unsuccessful message. I guess I installed TWRP correctly at least because pressing "Reset Phone" would take me to TWRP. From there I would try formatting data and flashing no-verity/supersu.

If I feel like making another backup of my phone one day I'll give this custom rom thing another try, but thanks for the help!
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jimmcghee:
No SuperSu

I can't get SuperSu to install so my phone is not rooted.

I see in your instructions that you had to install it twice but that didn't help.

I originally installed LinageOS 16.0 but when I saw you used 15.1 I went back and installed that.

Neither worked.

When I try to install SuperSu with TWRP, I see the lines:

- patching sepolicy

--- Failure, aborting

I'm assuming that is the problem.

When I invoke getenforce under TWRP, it shows 'Permissive' but when I try under LinageOS, it shows 'Enforcing'.

Under Settings/System/Developer options/Root Access I can only choose between 'Disabled' and 'ADB only'.

Any idea where to go from here? How would I go about starting over? :(

TIA, Jim
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jimmcghee:
Well...

Never mind.

After looking at it all for about the 50th time, I noticed the optional install of Magisk.

It ain't so optional. At least, for me.

I flashed it and installed the apk and

I NOW HAVE ROOT!!!

I don't claim to understand it but SuperSu didn't flash/work and Magisk does.

Hope this helps some other poor soul.

While I'm at it, I saw a post about how the line

adb push twrp.img

in '

Install TWRP Recovery

- ReCowvery Method'

should have been

adb push twrp.img /sdcard/

Any chance that could be corrected in the walk through?

And,

the gapps for LinageOS 15.1 is 8.1 but the one for LinageOS 16.0 (the newest) is 9.

I probably should have known this but would you consider mentioning this in the walk through?

I know, users are neeever happy. What can I say.

Except, of course, thanks for putting all this toheather. I'm sooo tickled I've finally gotten this working.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] boxes:
I saw that someone else had this same issue, the solution was to use an older version of TWRP, they no longer encountered the encryption unsuccessful message. I actually used an older version when I did this, I believe it was twrp-3.2.3-0-h830.img

I didn't have any issues. I should have mentioned this earlier on.

Once you get the phone all setup though, you'll want to flash the latest TWRP from within TWRP or flashify. I found that the older version of TWRP had issues making backups of certain partitions.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Asdfguy86:
Thanks a bunch! This did actually work for me, and now I have TWRP + rooted stock kernel with SuperSU.

I did have to flash SuperSU twice for it to work, but since then it's been flawless.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] mgreig:
hey boxes - which GCam port are you using (and on which ROM)? I have a few stock 20a H830 phones (haven't flashed with LOS or other custom yet) as well as a LOS 17.1 I just flashed yesterday and having issues getting GCam to run without FC'ing on any of them... thnx man

how do I revert back to stock? device shows up as "LGE Mobile for VZW USB Serial Port" on my pc, & LGUP/Uppercut says "Unknown Model" - tried flashing a stock zip on 1 phone thru TWRP but ended up bricking it (usb is not even detected)

edit: never mind, I got it restored using flash tool

edit2: hmm, re-tracing my steps I think it's possible I tried to flash an h850 rom thru twrp, causing the brick (careless mistake after long, tiring day - still looking for h830 firehose to recover that phone) - so I probably didn't need to use flash tool
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] onecallednick:
Still works!

Thanks to this guide I was able to flash LineageOS 17.1 on a phone I got for $20 off ebay! Thanks so much!

A couple of notes:

As others noted the twrp.img target is /sdcard/.

I had to use the last version of TWRP 3.2, 3.3 would not boot into recovery for me.

On WinBlows I could not load dirtycow, it gave an error. It worked fine when I switched back to Ubuntu.

I think this is all-around the most stable GCam port for most LG phones I've tried-

It doesnt have night sight though, but works well.

Had everything working on my H830 with 17.1 from 5/2020 except when I backed up with twrp 3.3.1 and then restored it to test, I got a boot loop.

So I tried installing twrp 3.4.0-1 with the 'Official TWRP' app and did a backup/restore from it and now when I boot it goes into fastboot! fastboot reboot just takes me right back to fastboot!!!

I tried re installing twrp 3.3.1-0 with

fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3-1-h830.img

but all I got was

target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes

sending 'recovery' (22940 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.506s]

writing 'recovery'...

FAILED (remote: unknown command)

finished. total time: 0.528s

I'm in way over my head. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :confused::(
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] jimmcghee:
I came across instructions to restart from off using the volume down button (instead of up) which took me to a reset screen. After the reset it booted to TWRP!!!

Then I reinstalled LinageOS 17.1 and restored just the Recovery partition from a very old backup (3.3.1-0) and now everything works and I can backup and restore just fine. :D

Just thought I'd mention this in case someone else got stuck in the same place I did.
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ceebeeme72:
I am stuck at installing twrp.img. I downgraded to 7. I unlocked the bootloader. I downloaded an older version of twrp, because I thought that was the problem.

When I type "run-as-su" at the adb shell, it says I have root.

The next step in the directions are:

dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/recovery (flash TWRP)

reboot recovery

After these commands, my phone does not reboot into twrp. I have tried exiting the shell and using adb fastboot reboot to restart the phone, and even pulling the battery and holding the volume down and power to boot into recovery, I still get the screen with the exclamation point saying the phone cannot be checked for corruption and to lock the bootloader. I never get to the TWRP screen. The part of the directions in the parenthesis (flash TWRP), is that something additional I am supposed to be doing? I am quite frustrated at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ceebeeme72:
OK, So I figured out that I needed to choose to do a factory reset after I did the last command, and then, voila, TWRP!

I just got the same problem with "Encryption Unsuccessful"

What is the twrp recovery startup instructions?
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] gregario valta:
I flashed Lineage 17.1 onto the G5 but now the phone does not even show up on the computer when I plug it in via usb

I open the ADB command prompt and type in "adb devices" and it says that the lg g5 is offline.

I try to type in "adb shell reboot" and it says "device unauthorized" or "device offline"

What do I do?
[T-Mobile LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ceebeeme72:
I think when you move the slider to start TWRP, unless you have encryption set up, you are unlocking the recovery. If you had previously set up encryption, you can start TWRP two ways. One is read only, and the other you must enter your password to decrypt the device to make changes. If it is the first time you have used TWRP after flashing, by default there should be no encryption, and therefore the instruction to disable encryption is moot.

The instructions to flash no-verity are in the original guide. You must download and push the zip to your device and then install it using TWRP.

Now I am having an issue with the cellular radio. I am on Mint, but it also did this on a MetroPCS sim. I have an indication of LTE, but it only works for data. As soon as I make a call, it drops down to 3G. I have used various choices for preferred network, but no LTE calling. Anyone else have this issue? And what about wifi calling, is it possible with LineageOS 17 on an H830?

thank i hope someone could help me
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Is your bootloader unlocked?

Root methods and TWRP are always model number specific, not all S7 and S7 edge devices are the same model number, the model number is different from one region to the next and from one network carrier to the next, they can't all use the same TWRP file. Is the TWRP file that you used built for your specific model number?

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] dvsk69:
My pixel 3 XL has been losing close to 15-20% overnight. Didn't find any app causing the issue. Ambient display seems to be the largest user. Please see the attached screenshot.

Tried a factory reset but no change. I have an Exchange account on Gmail with auto push settings. Other than that everything else is normal.

Is this drain normal? Any suggestions to fix this will be highly appreciated.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] fury683:
I believe Ambient Display uses about 1% per hour, typically.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] v12xke:
In that same screen you can use the 3-dot menu to toggle between "full device usage" and "app usage". You are on the full device side. As a baseline test try placing your phone in flip to shhh mode (setttings>>system>>gestures), and leave the phone face down overnight.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] dvsk69:
I put it on full device because app only mode doesn't show any apps at all.

Shhh mode turns on do not disturb right? I used Wind down from digital wellness and it also puts the phone on DND and greys the phone.

Still the drain is so terrible.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] walle4893:
I tried disabling adaptive battery (interesting enough, it doesn't help to hibernate unused apps as much as it claims it would), turning off "system tracing application" in developer options too (not sure if its a big factor), left my phone on battery overnight then woke up ~7 hours later, lost 4%, unlocked for a few minutes then it dropped another 1% ---> total of 5% drain from 7 hours (0.7%/hour), overall pretty decent, with adaptive battery ON I tend to lose 1% per hour standby.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] dvsk69:
Wow that is interesting. Adaptive battery is supposed to be intelligently increase your battery life based on the usage.

It's the other way around here? ?

Are there any cases out there with a lip to protect the sides of the curved screen? I've only owned phones with flat screens before and only used cases with a lip all around. Just worried about the sides of the curved screen getting damaged in an accidental drop if there isn't a lip to protect it.

Most make with TOP and BOTTOM lips to lift the display but a couple have ALL AROUND lips. For a curved display, I prefer the TOP and BOTTOM only because it leaves the curved sides unobstructed.

[Samsung Galaxy S10 Accessories] Daemos:
The speck grip isn't available in Australia. I had the opportunity to use the Spigen Slim Armor (two piece case with kickstand) and incipio dualpro (two piece).

The Spigen does not have a lip that is raised up on the sides of the screen, but has lips on the top and bottom.

The incipio dualpro does have a very small lip on the sides that is raised above the screen. It's at most the thickness of a sheet of paper. I will take some pictures later.

The buttons on the incipio are much better and I have returned the Spigen case, although I will miss the kickstand.
