    In this video I will be showing you how to fix it when you get a message showing you that the encryption was unsuccessful and that you should factory reset your phone to fix it.

    Samuel, you saved me from downloading official firmware and flashing it. I tried your technique, mine was showing 0 bytes I changed from EXT4 to EXT2 and then again to EXT4, suddenly it started showing me the size and when i rebooted it worked. Thanks Pal

    Hi, it looks like this is able to fix the problem but not for me.
    I have (or I was having) CWM recovery mode but something went wrong and I lost it. That means I can't get to it.
    So is it possible to install it or TWRP mode the problem solver??
    I would like to let you know that I have tried to use Odin but my pc did not recognize my device even though drivers are installed, maybe it's because that the debugging mode is not activated.
    Thanks for the help.

    thank you, it works on my OP 3T. For 3T users, after you flash rom and reboot, if your phone says encryption unsuccessful again, just click the reset phone button. Your phone will be rebooted into the rom you installed but your data will be wiped, at least you get to use your phone again...

    • @samtrew
      @samtrew  7 років тому

      To do so without losing files you will need to boot into your recovery and then simply transfer across the main files to do with music, photos, videos or anything else important that you have on there. It is actually quite easy to do as your phone appears to be normal according to the computer

Ve a limpiar. Limpieza avanzada. Selecciona datos, cambia el sistema de archivos y selecciona ext4. Si esto no funciona, entonces ve por qué. Si es porque algo no está montando, intente formatearlos primero. Si está fallando, intente con un formato diferente como exfat o fat. Repita para el caché y el sistema (en ese orden) solo si todos sus valores son 0mb
