Yep, probably again a noob that bricked his phone. :D

As there was no info on my phone that wasn't on google servers or something I was so stupid to start installing the latest official CM12 built on my XT1068 without any decent backups. :(

- I think the moto/google service for lost devices encrypted my phone without me really noticing it. :crying:

- I was on Lollipop, the latest update I got here from in Benelux/Europe.

- I unlocked my device, worked fine. device also tells in bootloader
"Device is UNLOCKED. Status Code: 3"

- when than having installed TWRP 2.8.0.1, os started but gave problems installing superSU.
(no prob I thought, I go immediately forward with CM12 installation, so don't have to bother with the old ROM) :silly:

- wiping everything for clean install I already saw some messages coming up. on hindsight; Difficulties with opening /data folder etc...

- tried to install CM, and several other more stock roms, but never get through the message. All bad installs.

- maximum I got is CM12 booting up, preparing some apps and than a message describing the encryption problem, asking to reboot.

TRIED:
- install from usb drive (with OTG cable)
- erase and reinstall from TWRP 2.8.0.1 and other recoveries.
- fastboot flash a standard recovery again, to wipe data from there,
(from this standard recovery installers never got through even the verification to install, so tried than installing from other recoveries, same problem.)

Can still try but hesistant:

Unlock my mothers phone (same month, same model, same place, probably same encrypted) to try backup there in TWRP, recover this on my phone, and this way flash standard rom again. From there I could probably get rid of encryption. (as found already in several places)

I would afterward immediately try to lock my mothers phone again, don't know so much of how to get recovery to standard one again though. Can I backup this before. When I try now "adb backup - all" on my phone from my mac, I get "unable to connect for backup" message though. Even when phone is saying "phone connected".

Anyone an idea of how to get out this trouble?
