Hi, meanwhile i'm trying to do a wipe cache/dalvik reset, accidentally i tap "Factory reset".
I shutdown immediately the phone, reboot in Recovery mode, do a wipe cache/dalvik and reboot the phone.
All works fine, i think, i only Lost all BT devices associates, login in some app e wifi password.
The Factory Reset process work for 2/3 seconds before i stop all.
Do you think my rom Is compromised? now do i need to reset or does the phone remain reliable? maybe some important system folder has been deleted? zero crash for now.
Thanks!
- OP5T Android 10 stock with TWRP.

After flashing AOKP build 6 and the gapps package, everything was running fine until the phone randomly shut down and rebooted.
After turning back on the boot animation continued, figured I'd wait it out and it still continued and after several minutes and pulling the battery I tried holding down the Volume Down and Power Button but the image says it's downloading please don't turn off this item. After waiting and waiting the phone shuts off and starts the reboot and the boot animation continues again.
This has never happened before and not sure exactly how to get the phone running again. What should I do?

if you can still get to recovery(power+both volume keys, then select recovery mode with volume keys, click power to confirm), try wiping cache and dalvik cache and reflashing JUST your rom, if it boots DONT flash the same gapps package, download a new one: http://tinyw.in/C7XP
I was able to open recovery
1. advanced
2. wipe dalvik cache
3. install zip
4. reboot
it's still running just the animation at this point. I have the same gapps package, didn't flash it, just the rom and it's still not loading. I have a feeling it was the wiping cache and dalvik cache part, is there a step I'm missing?
Wipe?
I looked at another forum, I'm guessing this is what I'm suppose to do for a full wipe?
Volume up, power button, and home button all pressed together for a couple of seconds.
Wipe the cache partition
Go to Advanced and wipe the dalvik and batt stats
Go to mounts and storage and select it.
Go to format / system and select it.
Scroll down to format system and select yes.
Go to format / data and select it
Scroll down to format data and select yes.
Go to format / cache and select it.
Scroll down to format cache and select yes.
Now go back and install the rom from the internal or external sd card.
If I do this and it still doesn't work, will I have to worry some more?
If you wipe data you will no longer have any sdcard contents. Then you come crying back here and want to know how to fix that. The easy solution here? Boot to your custom recovery and do 'factory reset'

And wiping battery stats, cache, dalvik... Is a myth.

Guys
really need some help here. Stupidly i decided i wanted to try my hand at installing clean rom,.
Firstly -
1. i rooted the device, and then used titanium backup to freeze some knox apps.
2. I didnt bother to put the stock recovery back on as i wanted to install clean ROM.
3. I followed the instructions i found on here to a tee - as below. They all worked perfectly.
4. I went through the install screens on CLEAN ROM - that all worked fine.
5. It ended with a screen back to TWRP and i hit reboot.
6. Not the device just gets stuck at the glowing samsung logo.
7. I can get back into TWRP but i have no idea what to do next. I have tried rebooting from TWRP, both system and power, but no luck. The device powers down, and comes back up but remains stuck on the glowing samsung logo.
What can i do?
these were the instructions i followed. Any help much appreciated, and i will chuck a couple of quid towards someone that can help.
3.
Download latest CleanRom and copy it to your SD-Card
4. ODIN
- Run Odin as administrator
- untick -Auto Reboot-
- Click -PDA- (in latest version it's -AP-) and choose your TWRP version
- Now turn off your device and restart it by holding down Power+Volume Down. Proceed with Volume Up to enter DownloadMode
- now connect your device to your PC using USB
- Device drivers should get installed if not already done
- check the Message box in Odin. There should be an "Added!!"
- There should be nothing checked but F. Reset Time
- Press -Start-
- when finished there should be a "RES OK !!" in the Message box
- TRWP is now flashed to your device
4.1.
Now restart your device manually by holding down Power+Volume Up. As soon as you see the Samsung Logo, wait a second and release the Powerbutton but keep holding Volume Up until TWRP is loaded.
5. TWRP
In TRWP
- click Wipe
- advanced wipe and check:
Dalvik, Cache, Data, Internal Storage (should be enough), System
- do NOT tick external SD. You don't want to get it wiped.
- Swipe to Wipe
Now back to Mainmenu
- click Install
- choose your desired ROM
- Swipe to Confirm Flash
- Follow Rom's Installshield and you should be good
Have fun and good luck
If you can get back to TWRP, then wipe data , cache & dalvik, then re-flash clean rom again.
If problem still persists then flash a stock rom via odin.
still no joy
I can wipe cache, system, data, but when i try to include dalvik cache i get a "Failed". the message in the screen says E: unable to mount '/cache

You shouldn`t wipe system . data , cache & dalvik was the requested options.
Now since you wiped system, your only choice is to download a stock firmware from sammobile, enter download mode power+volume down , then volume up, & flash via odin .

Hi thanks all – i think the problem was the boot loop issue. I wiped cache, dalvik cache, system, and data, one by one, and then reinstalled clean rom and it seemed to push it through. Thanks for the support though!
Almost, if it powers on and you're even getting in to recovery, bricked is not the proper term.
Bricked = no power, dead beyond repair.
All you had was a software issue.
and if twrp does not find sd card ?
then what ?..

Hello,
I have received my z Play a week ago, applied last 7.1.1 OTA everything OK
Then i decided to start flash rom
First : i build Lineage for my own => fasboot boot twrp => Flash OK => boot lineage OK , nice
Second : i try Gzr Validus => fasboot boot twrp => wipe all / data and factory reset => flash OK
but impossible to start : it ask me a password , ok no problem but after : "Decrypt unsuccessful. The password you entered is correct, but unfortunately your data is corrupt. To resume using your phone, you need to perform a factory reset"
ok.... i have already done a factory reset but i re boot in twrp and re factory reset, same problem
I rewipe everything, reflash, same problem
i have tried to format Data and cache partition using ext4 instead f2fs, same problem
retry with lineage , same problem
it's like my data partition was still encrypted or like it was still corrupted even after a factory reset
i would prefer avoid to flash/downgrade stock as i have read lot of people are bricked
I have to say sometimes Twrp fail to wipe and is stuck, i have to force shut down and retry.
any suggestions are welcome
Hello,
I just unlocked my bootloader after waiting for 30 days.
Then I flashed official twrp via fastboot and booted to it with
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-whyred.img
I wiped Dalvik / Art Cache, System, Data, Cache but NOT internal storage
I flashed the PE extended 9.0 rom.
Now when I reboot it wants me to enter a password, I entered my PIN and it says:
Code:
Decryption unsuccessful
The password you entered is correct, but unfortunately your data is corrupt.
To resume using your phone, you need to perform a factory reset. When you set up your phone after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to restore any data that was backed up to your Google Account.
I click on Reset Phone and it reboots into TWRP and then automatically boots the system and again it wants me to enter my password.. and again the decryption unsuccessful message
In my first attempt I wiped everything including internal storage, then rebooted to recovery again and then installed the rom, but that didn't help. So I had to flash MIUI with the mi flash tool, then I did all the setup etc. and tried the method I used above..
But I always get stuck with this decryption unsuccessful.. What am I doing wrong?
//EDIT:
Solved the problem by TWRP -> Wipe -> Format Data -> Yes.
Now I feel stupid haha, I shouldn't do this stuff after working a night shift..
format data is the only way to decrypt
