I'm having a major issue with installing a new rom. I currently have the Cyanmod on my phone. I wanted to change to a new rom, So I did the normal steps and was able to install the new rom. However, once my device booted up, it ask for a encrypted password. I know I didn't have a encrypted password set previously, So I tried restalling, wiping everything, and etc. Here is the weird thing, whenever I reinstall my previous rom cyanmod everything goes back to normal. I'm able to boot up and I don't have an encrypted password. Anyone have any solutions for this?

Hello,
I'm having a weird issue with my Note 7 that I didn't have at all until tried to root for the first time....
It randomly restarts, sometimes is very often and sometimes it take a few hours to do it, but when it does it just restarts out of nothing and when Android loads again it asks me for a password that doesn't even exsits
"To start your device, enter your password" (Picture attached)
This started to happen after used the rootable kernel that was published before SuperSU 2.77 Beta but even reflashing the stock firmware, bootloader, modem, CSC it keeps doing it even when my Android is not yet configured (at the first Welcome screen before setting the phone up), so there is no password at all at this point. I've tried my Google account password, but it doesn't work.
This message is the same that comes up when you select "Secure Boot" so you need to enter a password or PIN to decrypt your data and be able to load it, but I don't have that option checked, and could not be checked when the phone is not even configured.
The way to work around this issue is flashing the no-verity-opt-encrypt mod that is not supposed to be needed anymore after SuperSU 2.77 has been released. So flashing this mod will get me into my Android home screen but it will eventually restart again and I need to flash this mod again.
This is what I've tried so far and it keeps happening:
- Flashed the rootable kernel when it was published and the no-verity mod. I formated data as indicated in the post. Then this problem appeared.
- Flashed stock firmware, bootloader, modem, csc thinking this would remove any trace of the mods I flashed, but kept happening.
- Factory reset from the Samsung recovery, had the "no verity" errors sometimes and sometimes not.
- Flashed other firmwares, bootloaders, modems, csc from other countries but for the same model N930F and kept happening.
- Flashed custom ROMs, formated system, data, everything.
- Flashed stock firmware again.
- Flashed custom ROMS again with the new SuperSU 2.77 and keeps happening.
I have done every single flash that actually exists for the Note 7 and formated everything with no luck....
Has anyone have this issue or had it at all at some moment? If so... How did you manage to get rid of this message?
I hope someone can help, If it was faulty phone I think it would restart at any point even in Recovery or Download mode, but only happens inside of Android.
Seems a common problem I think?

Yep, saw that post... But never seen anyone complaining about the phone asking for a password when reboots (only when it crashes) its like it was asking for a password to decrypt the phone.
So, I have a rooted OnePlus 3 with CM 13.1 Snapshot. But wanted to try CM 14.1. So I wipe Cache, Dalvik, Data and system, and install CM 14.1 nightly. After messing with it for a few days its was not daily driver ready for me. So same ting and install CM 13.1 back.
Now, I setup phone and all. I want to go back to TWRP to flash Exsposed. Suddenly it asks for a password (said no thanks in setup) so I assumed it would be my pin, but that was incorrect. I started the phone back up and asked for a start-up pin (even I said no thanks in setup) but that was my pin. So I tried to chance it into a pattern and hoped it would update in TWRP.
I go back to TWRP still incorrect, I go start my phone back up, but now it saying that the startup pattern is incorrect. I'm 100% sure is correct.
Now I can't enter TWRP and/or my phone.
Please help me, thanks.
Did u happen to restore from backup ?
You need clean install, else the pin information might had an issue,
This issue presence in 3.0.2.0 TWRP not sure whther it's been fixed or not.
Solution is dont use PIN (remove it) prior to doing backup
Hey,
some days ago i went from 7.1.2 to 8.1. I haven't had any issues whatsoever.
For some reason tho it seems like there's something wrong since my bug isn't listed as known.
The first ROM i tried was RR 6.0, and i tried it 2 times with this ROM. Same bug, just like with crDroid 4.1 which im running now. I even performed a COMPLETE wipe and made sure to flash the latest twrp recovery.
Whenever I setup a displaylock (PIN/Pattern/.. except swipe which is default) the device freezes immediatly afterwards, becomes totally unusable so im forced to pull out the battery. Rebooting then takes me to the lock that was just setup but entering the code just freezes the phone again. There's no workaround so far - everytime it happend i had to go back to factory settings.
Since i need to setup a displaylock to install a certificate I could really need your help. Im thanking in advice :good:

Running Pixel Experience ROM. I always used TWRP but due to changes in the ROM in an update 2 months ago I had to install Orange Fox. All worked well. Trying to install latest update, but when I now reboot in recovery it asks for encryption password. I've tried my screen pin but that's not accepted.
I don't want to format my data partition.
Then, install TWRP again, which worked fine before, but now has the same problem: Asks for encryption password.
How can I fix this please?
Hi there,
Yesterday I rooted my oneplus 5T and installed TWRP 3.2.1 & masgisk. Then, I´ve installed Pixel experience AOSP which seemed like fairly stable from the description. Everything went fine, the OS started I started configuring it then after setting the password I got the OS having always the setting app to crash. So, I thought well, I can just go to recovery and try once again factory reset. Otherwise, I can mount the recovery and install another ROM. I went to recovery and to my surprise it was asking for a password and mine didn´t work. I tried the factory reset and still the encryption stayed. I found that this version has a decryption problem and all my files were encrypted and not accessible, that was fine, since I had everything backed up. So, I have installed the new version of TWRP which seems to fix this issue after loosing all encrypted file. I have formated the data, system, dalvic and cache and installed once again pixel exerience but the OS keeps on bootloop. Have anybody seen something like this? How should I fix it? My best guess was to reinstall stock OS via adb, but in the past I've rooted a couple of devices and I've never seen something like this.
Thanks in advance
