RN7 | To start Android, enter your PIN -> Wrong PIN

[Anton_Menov]

I tried to install TWRP many times, formatted the phone about 6 times. This happens after "fastboot boot twrp.img". Every time I tried, I got this error. I tried my password on the lock screen, searched for interned passwords (default_password and password did not work), Google password, last time set the encryption password as the password on the lock screen and still did not work. I would like to receive your help, ready to give some information. I unlocked my bootloader and every time I turned on USB debugging after formatting. So I could not launch TWRP I guess.

Did you FORMAT data in TWRP?

No, every time I formatted via Fastboot userdata and cache.

Flash TWRP via fastboot...then boot to recovery from fastboot....fastboot boot recovery.img.....while in TWRP...FORMAT data ...

I can't launch TWRP I guess, it requires PIN as I said after boot. Actions before are the same I made all these times.

When TWRP asks for PIN press cancel...then FORMAT Data..

There is an interface like this one (image taken from the internet), I haven't seen cancel there.

Some users are also saying by flashing ZCX TWRP they have solved the problem ...

But there is said that I should not delete System or Persist and you told that "fastboot -w" will erase everything.

• FORMAT /data partition (NEVER wipe System or Persist!)

After fastboot flash recovery twrp.img I didn't use fastboot boot twrp.img, just entered recovery. I guess the problem was that I didn't know that TWRP launches as a recovery.
