So after the buzz over the Apple vs FBI dispute, I've decided to encrypt my OPO. However, I wonder how flashing roms and encrypting device works together. If I encrypt my phone today with my custom kernel and rom, what will happen if I wipe the device and try to flash another rom? Can I still access TWRP(and type my password i presume?) and flash just as usual?

Yeah, I was afraid of that.
I did encrypt my Moto G a while back. When I was i need of a backup, I could not flash it in TWRP as the phone was encrypted. I had to reflash the phone completely back to stock with fastboot, then reroot and install twrp again. Quite unconveinient if you just want to restore a backup or update your rom.

No need to flash stock
You can fastboot opo with system img without flash recovery
Or modem or kernel....
Just after boot to recovery for su
Twrp support encryption but when place password select option pin to boot
You can backup or restore

My phone has been encrypted from the start, the latest official TWRP from twrp.me supports encryption. All you need to do is boot to TWRP, it will ask for your password, you can enter it and then decrypt, et voila, all of your data is there and you can flash like you normally do.

Good to know, so you're saying if you're encrypted on official ROMs you won't be able to update if you use the OTA?
OP was looking to flash custom kernels and ROMs while encrypted, which should be fine, because I've been doing it since I've had my OPO.

What ROM are you currently using? Does encryption have a big impact on performance?

I think yes. O watched couple of speed comarisons beetween OnePlus One and Nexus 6 (encryptuon anabled by default in Nexus) and OnePlus One was wayyy faster in app opening than nexus , but in app perfornance was the same.
I've searched the OP forums, for a How to Encrypt... did not find any. Please, is anyone aware of a good "How To".

Well actually i think i read you wrong, the "how to" per se should be baked right in, what i meant I'd like to know is how encryption and flashing get along, but i take it it was addressed last page

After i wanted to install Android P, i got a bootloop. so i wanted to go to twrp but now my files are encrypted and twrp is not asking for a pin or pattern so i can't decrypt my internal storage files.
Now the biggest problem is that i just came back from a family weekend and i made a lot of pictures, witch i can't acces now, and i really want them back.
Now i can't install a new os or anything ...
Can someone please help me! i'm really despirate
(sorry for my bad english)
Try downgrading twrp , night get it to ask for pin
downgrading is never the answer. In fact, that will cause this problem to happen. Now i must ask, are you temp booting twrp or is twrp installed to phone.
I got this when I temp booted the mtp enabled twrp the other day, although it still asked for my passcode and said description was successful. When I rebooted the installed (official) twrp it all came back....

Now i am booting from temp twrp, before that i got the latest twrp installed
Bringing this back up... Did booting from temp twrp work? Ran into the same issue.
Temp boot and use the usb c to pull ur data from the device to a computer. After that you can wipe and start over. Unbricking guide available in the help section
Having the same issue. If I boot using fastboot TWRP I'm able to decrypt data. I did that and flashed stock OOS and the same TWRP version (BluSpark) that was used in the fastboot. But the folders are still encrypted. It's weird how a fastboot can decrypt it but a regular recovery boot can't. Is there any alternatives available?
I'm in the process of backing up my data before I officially bite the bullet.

Probably the best way indeed. I think i'm gonna start disabling forced encryption to stop these kind of problems.

Hi, just tried to do this by flashing the old zip trough TWRP, but i always end to boot in recovery, maybe i'm doing something wrong...?
I tried this today and happened the same, i guess you have to clean flash to downgrade.
Also a tip, if you got stuck in recovery and yet cannot decrypt (doesn't ask for password/pin in TWRP), boot to fastboot mode, use the command "fastboot boot <the img file name for twrp>" so that you can boot directly to the img file from your PC. This way it will ask for your password.

You might try flashing again when you get booted back to TWRP. That way, you can get 9.01 flashed to both slots if it's not already. No guarantees, but it's worth a try.

Can you link me to the exact fastboot rom you flashed? Some said I have to use the downgrade zip from OnePlus to Oreo 5.1.1 then only upgrade to 9.0.1. The OP of the fastboot rom said the rom is not for downgrading.
Did you downgrade to Oreo first or directly flash the 9.0.1 fastboot rom?

I've wiped everything, then downgraded to Pie directly, but I was in a slightly different situation (only fastboot available).
Just to be sure flash the Oreo one and then upgrade to Pie.
With the whole A/B partition layout it should be easier to downgrade too right?
Hi guys
I was trying some of custom rom on my OP6 and I wanted to go back to Oxygen OS. So i did a clean installation with system wipe and i flashed the last full OTA update. But since i can't boot to system anymore, TWRP always displays that there is no OS installed despite the fact that I've tried several rom . Is this the first time it's done this to me how can I fix it?

The best suggestion I can give you is to flash stock oos with TWRP, reboot to stock recovery, without flashing anything else, wipe data from stock recovery and startup system.. if it is working you can flash back TWRP and magisk if you need it
Just be careful because at your point is easy to lose all of your stored data

If you wipe system, then flash oos ROM, TWRP will think there is no os. You can just ignore and boot.
Wiping system then flashing any time will make twrp display "no os installed" it does this because it hasn't created files for twrp to check if you have a ton installed. Flashing twrp then rebooting to twrp fixes it.
Reboot to stock recovery?

Hi, need a little bit of support, since I'm new to this as well. I was in a working OOS open beta 25/28, but then I think I flashed the wrong zip (OOS 9.0.9?), and I was not able to boot to system. It kept going to "bootloader unlocked" screen and custom recovery. Currently in TWRP blu_spark 3.3.1-x v. 9.109, and it's showing me no OS installed when I attempt to reboot. I haven't rebooted to system yet.
All the folders in my /sdcard is gibberish... if I try to push a file to it, it says "Required key not available." I did remove all security/passwords from my phone before doing any updates/backups.
I completed a wipe cache/dalvik/system via TWRP, and flashed the OOS OTA stable Android 10 zip downloaded directly from OnePlus Support. Considering this situation, do you still think it's safe for me to reboot to system? Then how do I get to stock recovery from there--is that by holding down the buttons?

No, your internal storage Is like trash cause the last rom you flashed has older security patch than oos10. Your device Is now encrypted and wont boot to system. I Guess you have to erase all via MSN tool or fastboot signed rom. Even if you wiped what mentioned above, your problem still be the data.
Fastboot method?

Thank you for replying. I'm relieved that you know of a couple methods to try.
Is using "Format Data" in TWRP an option for dealing with the encryption??
For the MSN tool, can I use this one? Tried looking around, but it's unclear. "[TOOL] MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)" https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...wnloadtool-v4-0-international-t3798892/page10
I would be more comfortable with using fastboot, but am I at any risk of having lost fastboot, or can I just turn off my device from TWRP right now and hold down the buttons to get there? Afraid to move out of TWRP right now, in case I can't get back. I do have twrp-3.3.1-18-enchilada-Q-mauronofrio.img that I can run from fastboot if needed.
By "signed rom," do you mean I can simply flash one of the zips here from fastboot? "[OnePlus 6][ROM][OTA][Oxygen OS] Mirrors for official Oxygen OS ROMs and OTA updates" https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3792244

That's awesome, I'm starting to grasp how much of a genius Mauronofrio is, after so many people referencing his work.
In his guide, he says, "These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone, so don't use them to come back to oreo or to update from oreo to pie." This may be a dumb question, but how do I know which zip/OOS version to flash, when I don't have a functioning OS on my phone?

That worked! And starstruck that you were able to check that with him. I flashed Mauronofrio's fastboot ROM for 10.3.2 and it rebooted (WOW). I clicked through the Google setup pages and checked that my data and wifi worked.
I then went back into fastboot, booted M's twrp img, fomatted data, and then installed twrp-3.3.1-x_blu_spark_v9.109_op6.zip, rebooted into recovery.
Then I think I made a mistake, because I installed Magisk-v20.4.zip. It succeeded, but now I can't boot into system anymore. Is it too late to flash the 10.3.2 boot.img?

Flash stock like you did your ROMs. flash that DM varity at the end. Don't restore a stock backup if you didn't make it decrypted. Once you backup stock decrypted you can restore it anytime you want.
I've always started out on stock decrypted and then back that up. Then fish my ROMs you May have to reformat again so you can do it. I'm not to sure. If it's a different security patch you May have problems

Yes full zip. I would try it without a reformat first, just a factory reset in TWRP, and if it doesn't boot, then you know you will need to do the full format in TWRP. But I don't think you will. I hope not.

Man what a pain in the butt ... I tried over and over again and found no way to maintain decryption when going back to stock. ..... my device wouldn’t boot . I formatted data several times and that didn’t help ... still wouldn’t boot.
I may give up since I was able to flash encrypted
But if you have suggestions and the exact steps you take I might try again
Thanks

Ok I just dirty flashed 9.5.11 and kept decryption. I didn't have to reformat because I was already unencrypted, but I followed the same way I shared with u.

Sorry for the slight OT
Can you run an androbench and post the results please, curious to see if decrypting affects write read performance
Can someone link DM verity please ?
Hello,
I'm unable to come in recovery.
After English>Advanced>Boot in recovery
it always comes back in the main screen where you must choose language.
My OP6 seems to be encrypted (however I dit not choose for).
OS 10.3.5
I use Magisk 20.4
How to solve this?
Greetings,
Hans

I think you are in soft brick. Use the Tool AIO by mauro and flash recovery.img via fastboot.
Wrong place...this is roms and kernels section, next time post it in question's section...
Huh?
This is Q&A section.

Fastboot means adb for me.
How does this work with AIO? I can't find a detailed instruction.
Thanks in advance.

According to their website flashing stock recovery with AIO isn't possible for OP6.
Whatever the reason may be.
Moreover I miss general instructions how to use AIO.
Anyone a solution for my problem?

If you have adb,
Try 'adb reboot bootloader'
You'll get to fastboot
Download TWRP img on your pc and twrp zip on your phone
'fastboot boot twrp.img'
You'll be booted to TWRP
Flash twrp.zip to install twrp from booted twrp
Read Rooting n TWRP threads for more details.
Edit: My bad. I missed that you need stock recovery. TWRP may be better option though. IIRC, you can get stock recovery by flashing unmodified boot.img of whatever oos version you are on, but try at your own risk. Also if nothing works, you should backup your data and use msm download tool to restore your phone to factory state.
Thanks.
I want to have back the ability to go into recovery (stock or custom doesn't matter).
Are you sure you're suggestion is the solution?
Could it be an encryption problem which blocks whatever recovery?

As you mentioned in the first post that you are already decrypted, then it shouldn't be a problem.
Anyways you can use mauronofrio TWRP for decryption support (it will ask you for pattern or pass).
As my solution is only valid if you can access your sdcard from twrp, you can try it risk free.
The command "fastboot boot twrp.img" only boots the recovery, doesn't flash it. So it's pretty safe to try.
And to save all the hassle, just backup all data and restore your phone to factory settings using MsmDownload Tool.
Thank you very much.
In first posting I made a stupid mistake. My OP6 seems to be encrypted as it asks for pass when I try to boot in recovery.
As I understand your last post AIO will ask for pass when I boot twrp, correct?
Then I'm booted in twrp and have to flash twrp.zip but is that possible with an encrypted device?
Basic question.
I did not permit for encryption. How is it possible that the device still is?
Deleted because twice.

Every Device is encrypted by default. It usually is your lockscreen password. Just enter the same password in twrp and you'll be able to access the files.
Aslo it's not AIO that asks password. It is twrp which will ask you password if you have one set i.e. your lockscreen password/pattern.
