Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
A factory reset would wipe the phone (except system related info), making the encryption null and void (only affects userdata). Odd that it has no effect.
At any rate, I am connecting this thread to the forum where your device experts can be found:

Hope this helps, and good luck!

i have been trying to factory reset my phone both the soft reset and hard reset which do not work at all. when hard resetting using recovery i get this message ("e:format_volume:%20 make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata") .
i also tried reinstalling firmwire using Odin, there is absolutely no difference. also tried reinstalling recovery using odin, also did not work (odin shows as the process being successful on both localisations but the phone is not responding to it)
please help, much appreciated

hey everyone,
I have a Casio G'zone Commando 4g lte phone from Verizon using a stock rom and it was pushed an update from Verizon. when this happened the on screen keyboard is no longer coming up at the password screen to enter the password. I don't want to do a factory reset because there are photos I do not want to lose on it. usb debugging is not enabled so I cannot use adb that I know of and the only recovery buttons I have found for this phone will wipe it. I also tried an on the go adapter with a usb keyboard but that didn't work either. any help or ideas would be appreciated.
thank you

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
There are a couple different levels of factory reset. One that is intentionally invoked (eg. via recovery) seems to delete app data (including settings) only, as in leaves media files intact. I ran into this when I reset my old Infuse. All the old pictures were still there.
Another level is invoked by entering the wrong password too many times or when your device is lost, for example. That factory reset formats the userdata partition.
I don't think there is any other option but to factory reset at this point; the only choice is the type of factory reset to go with. If you can get into recovery mode, you should be able to do the former.
But before coming to that, I would get one last opinion on the matter before wiping away:

Here's my issue.
I recently rooted/installed TWRP for this phone, all was working well until one day the system started running extremely slow>
Pulling down the notification bar took about five seconds; it took about the same amount of time to turn the screen on/off.
I searched everywhere for fixes and tried every one to no avail, so I figured I'd do a factory reset.
After trying the factory reset from the settings app; all the phone did was reboot.
So I went into TWRP and reset/cleared data from there.
Now when the phone starts, it brings me to a screen saying "Encryption unsuccessful" and only gives me the option to reset my phone.
When I press this button, it just reboots to the same screen>
I can't get into TWRP because before all of this happened, I disabled USB debugging so I can't use my PC to get into recovery. There's also no way to boot to recovery with just the hardware buttons; the only way to get to TWRP with this phone is either from apps on the phone itself or using ADB.
Am I S.O.L here? Am I going to need to buy a new phone?
