9.0.3 update with unlocked bootloader

[qizbot]

My daughter unwittingly performed an OTA update with an unlocked bootloader and now gets the error "Decryption unsuccessful, the password you entered is correct, but unfortunately your data is corrupt." at startup. Before I wipe the device I'm wondering why when I boot with the stock recovery the password seems to decrypt properly if I use the correct password (no errors but there is no way to mount or backup the data partition) but if if temporarily boot with TWRP via fastboot the password does not seem to decrypt the device (I do receive a password failed error). Any information is appreciated.

In my view, there are some issues with the pie build which detects that the bootloader is unlocked. After this you may see decryption unsuccessful.
When I was on oreo 5.0.8, I had flashed nougat ROMs too by just flashing the nougat fw but now when I was using pie 9.0.2; I tried to flash sultan ROM which resulted in decryption unsuccessful.
In that case, we need to format the phone.
