Should we format /data in TWRP to get rid of encryption? Would we still need modified boot.img then?

So, we can keep encryption on /data?

Which SuperSU version is recommended? 2.65 ok? Thanks!

Hi.
My Mi5 came with Global 7.2.4.0 and from what I read it won't pick the update. Is there a method to install this new version without unlocking the bootloader?
Thanks
