(29-01-2021, 02:10 AM)Windows Vista I tried the method 2, and now my tablet asks me for a password and also "Gboard has stopped working" appears. If I make a factory reset my tablet gets encrypted again Sad

there are still other methods left for you to try

I can't access internal storage,SD card, or data partition in TWRP after I ported it from other phone. It started to show the available size instead of the 0 mb error when I flashed force disabler DM verity zip to data partion using ex kernel manager APK, after that system seems a little scrambled. But still I can't access the folders in TWRP. TWRP is saying permission denied.

see this post @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-391...#pid214347
if you still have problems with twrp's mount point then create a new thread for it by clicking "ask question" at the top

Hello,
I wanted to remove the encryption of the userdata partition to have more convenience in switching between backup versions and to be able to read its contents even from PC.
Currently on the Umidigi Bison Pro I don't have a custom recovery (TWRP) installed so method 1 is the only one I can use.
I have identified the strings to be changed, including in the build.prop file,
but when I save the changes instead it saves a 0 Byte file.
I've also tried creating a copy of the files in sdcard, editing them and moving them even with different names but in the end it always results in a 0 Byte file.
The vendor partition (contained in super) results me mounted as RW and I can create new files but always having size 0 B.
I also tried with adb but the behavior is the same.
If I leave the files at 0B having replaced the original ones on the next reboot it freezes at the logo screen.

Does anyone have an explanation for this limitation? How can I get around it and edit the files?

I could not find the button to edit the message.
I share to help those in my same situation and to reciprocate the site of the fantastic guides on Android modding (Mediatek in particular).

After many attempts I figured out why that behavior was happening: the filesytem of the partitions contained in "super" were set with 0 free bits (no free space).
Thanks to this tool I was able to solve it ! https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/scrip...e.4247311/

Now I can correctly edit the system files and method 1 of this guide worked. Thank you!

I was trying to flash a custom ROM on my Infinix hot 8 via twrp. Twrp shows internal storage as 0mb but sd card is being recognized. My question is can I proceed with the flashing process from the sd card despite internal storage reading 0mb without endangering my device? Thanks
