My one is still encrypted, does this count too?

Gesendet von meinem OnePlus 3
Mine never was.

So i tried to start the encryption in the settings, but it just restarts the phone after some seconds.

I did a log and the issue is a known one for me:

Orig filesystem overlaps crypto footer region. Cannot encrypt in place.

So on my earlier Samsungs, where the encryption also failed it was pretty easy.

i just searched for the data partitions on adb, resized them a bit and voila i could encrypt my device.

strangely it is not really visibly resizing my data partition executing the

mke2fs -T ext4 -L data

the size strangely stays the same.

Hmmmmm :confused::confused::confused:

Any advise?

But it completely removes encryption,had to reflash stock recovery,relock and then unlock bootloader fastboot format user data,and finally flash this twrp to get encryption back

If you are not able to encrypt you have to save all your stuff to your computer and then resize the /data partition by doing this with adb shell in recovery.

Code:
mke2fs -b4096 -T ext4 /dev/block/sda15 14059611
IT WILL DELETE ALL YOUR FILES!!!

that leaves enough space after the /data partition, to store the stuff needed for encryption.

Cheers,

Saint.

It's grand don't mind erasing everything off the phone, only takes 10 mins to reset up most things if your booting up OOS,

Nope, mine is still encrypted, as encryption is the default expected way, and unencryption erases userdata, it can't be a feature to unencrypt without warning. Bug of problems with default passwords

Is there a reason to want encryption? What is it required for?

Why would I want it?I know it can be broken into by lads with the skills to do it,but the average phone thief,some strung out junkie hopefully wouldn't be able to get in the phone

So the official TWRP has the encryption completely removed?

Note: sorry for off topic

Is there another source for this besides Basketbuild? I have never been able to download anything from there. It always times out. There must be a better way.
