So I just put it in fastboot mode and tried this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/modified-emmc-file-unlocking-bootloader-t3358486 and got stuck in detecting any device, rebooted and now the device dont recognize my pin or the fingerprint. I dont made any changes
Do you have TWRP installed? if you do, you can delete the .key files from \data\system using the file manager. I usually also delete the locksettings.db, locksettings.db-shm and locksettings.db-wal files as well.
I did a full reset from Google Device Manager, thanks. Kinda new on this whole Redmi thing

i tried but everytime i try to install a new rom , it fails
Why .... error ?
Seems like permissions problem. Try going to recovery and go to advanced, then select fix permissions. If that doesn't work, modify the permissions via a file manager and make sure read and write is enabled for the sd cards. Please ensure that storage (or phone) encryption is disabled.
I installed the lineage OS rom just to see how well it worked but some important important features I use on a daily basis were broken so I restored to backup I made the day before. The problem is that now my pattern isn't recognized. And before anyone asks, yes it is definitely the right pattern. Even though I mostly use the fingerprint scanner to unlock my phone, I've used this same pattern for the past year or so on my other phone and I checked that I was definitely putting it in right, plus this is the only pattern I've ever used on this phone. Is there any way I can get into my phone without having to factory reset it? I don't have anything hugely important on my phone but I'd rather not have to set it up again.
Reboot your device into TWRP, then go into Advanced > File Manager > /data/system folder and delete all of the following files (if they exist):
Code:
gatekeeper.password.key
gatekeeper.pattern.key
password.key
pattern.key
locksettings.db
locksettings.db-shm
locksettings.db-wal
Reboot and profit!

Thank you! Life saver.
Please help! I am a noob here. i was using resurrection remix 5.8.3 then I flashed xiaomi.eu without making a backup. Now when I tried to boot my phone, it ask for the decryption pattern but my pattern is 6x6 and it only shows 3x3. So I went back to twrp and then I made several mistakes in putting the decryption pattern. When I put the correct pattern it doesn't decrypt. Please help I need to recover my files because the data for my research is in my phone

Easy Fix
If you have TWRP or any Custom Recovery Easy Job !
Boot to TWRP
Go to advanced>filemanager to access the files in your phone.
Go to the /data/system folder. Scroll down and find the two files with the .key extension. Delete both of them (by tapping on the file and then tapping the �Delete� button). Then, delete all the files containing the word
locksettings.
password.key
pattern.key
locksettings.db
locksettings.db-shm
locksettings.db-wal
Make sure you deleted them ! Reboot with no lock

Hi friends, I had recently used Lineage OS but I wanted to return back to xiaomi.eu weekly rom. I have restored my data backup partition afterwards I flashed my ROM using twrp. Now my password is not working, it shows me incorrect password. The problem is that I cannot use my FP(It's obvious as it happen on every boot/ reboot).
through twrp fileexplorer go to data/system/ delete two files with extention .key and three files with keyword 'locksettings'. reboot.

Need Help!Twrp password not working,cant access storage.any solutions???
Same issue, not solved!
Hello,
I have the same problem. It took me all day to finally install twrp recovery since I hadn't turn USB debugging on. I finally was able to do it and i deleted the 5 password files - but now my phone is in a bootloop. I wiped the usual data like Dalvik and cache, but it didn't change a thing.
Also, after I deleted this and took a lot on my File Storage, and navigate to /data/system, where i deleted the password files, there is NOTHING but one thing called "storage.xml".
What am I supposed to do now? I dont know what to do anymore, I have so many things already.

Flash a new Rom . Or you can ask for files in data/system from anyone to upload it on cloud from there you can download and copy those files into system folder it might work without losing a byte of data.

I found a solution now, it didn't boot because of the DM verity. I installed a package to solve that via installing in twrp and then it worked, but all my data was gone.
Just flash this file with the TWRP and you're done!
The file is not mine, it was extracted from the PitchBlack Recovery Project.

I'm sorry for uploading the file to mediafire but I could not upload it directly to XDA

Thanks bro.. worked! :fingers-crossed:
Attached i will have a link to my google drive with programs and zip files for everyone to use will explain further.
Okay I have a few problems going... here is what I have and have tried and the issues I have been having... I have log files and such saved too should you need those.
Synthoms: LGK20 PLUS aka TP260
- I needed a Binary update for SU... (never did get that to work) Somehow afterwards my phone would only reboot into Twrp Recovery on boot loop.
-I installed an Update SU file ( also didn't work) then the phone started booting into only fastboot.... ( I had a brief issue of it not connecting on ADB but I hade to just end task adb in the task menu (Crtl Alt Del in case somebody has same problem) Afterwards connected no problem.
-I have wiped datas and cache and all sorts of instuctions to no avail.. lol
_phone now boot immediately to fastboot but I am able to get to twrp recovery just fine
Whats Weird:
-I can see the device on the computer get onto the sd card add files and zip files and the computer recognizes it n o problem at all... but LG MOBILE SUPPORT LGUP LG Bridge and LG Flash Tool.... all do not recognize my phone.
-But no matter where I partition anything and no matter what recovery img or zip file I install... it just only wants to open into fastboot.... I'm sure it is a very simple operation to fix... maybe one of you have a restore file can put on the SD with mine that have done me no good? Any help would be appreciated hardcore lol and I appreciate the learning experience a per i have learned a lot..
Heres what I have collected in my attempts
A: I have a Twrp.img and Recovery.img (not sure if they are a recovery or boot partition)
B: I have ADB it connects to my device fine and I can even flash onto the phone but seems to not be helping lol
C: : LG Bridge and LG UP do not see that my phone is connected (all my drivers are updated)
D: I have a stock KTZ file for my phone but I have no programs to flash it except adb (the others will not recognize my phone except ADB
E: I am very sure Xposed may have something to do with this... I downloaded an uninstaller and the zip file will not flash error 555 or something like that.
F: I'm very sure I need a Boot.img?? this I know little about but I have a program to build one if I can figure out how lol.
G: My recoveries did not work :0(
H: None of my SU zips seem to be working (is why I believe Xposed is behind it lol.
I: There are commands you can put into the terminal in TWRP recovery ( I can get there will explain further later) to disable Xposed but they say to create a folder name \data\data\....ect ect... There is no way that the TWRP recovery will let me create folders so I'm at a loss there.....
Chances are there was software on the phone that allows the LG software on the computer to see it.
I'm not seeing the Google drive link, but if you wiped the system & data partitions in TWRP, then you have no OS.
Don't know if TWRP can flash a KTZ file, most 3rd party ROMs are ZIP.
Is it Tmobile or MetroPCS?
I assume you have read Aletron9000's thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/lg-k20-plus-how-to-flash-original-rom-t3632850/page1
It seems like it has a download mode similar to Samsung phones when using Odin. I have a OnePlus and its straight forward, TWRP (in twrp plugging into pc will bring up the device in file mode so you can copy rom and gapps zip files) and once I got twrp on my mom's galaxy s4 it was same process with LineageOS 14.1 and the phone runs 10x better.
I wish I knew if you could flash the KTZ file in twrp, but I doubt it.. If you can uncompress it in 7zip or winrar, then zip it again that may work. But if your just trying to install a factory image (assuming that's what a KTZ is) the the directions in the link above should get you there. Then for root either flash supersu (apparently Chinese controlled if that matters) or maybe better magisk 16 from twrp (and the newest magisk manager apk from within the Android, should still pass safety check, and can install alot of modules that I previously used xposed for.
Only trust the magisk on xda-developers

TP260 SOFT BRICK: Recovery File?
I am on a TMOBILE phone... I"M sure that's exactly what my problem is... I did read that post and have LGUP (will also be in my drive link) BUT it does me no good because it will not show up on the program for me to flash anything to it...
If I could get somebody to send me a recovery file I would be able to put it into my SD card then load it up will solve my entire issue lol.
I did consider trying magicks honestly but I do not know enough about it to switch over like that... Once I get my phone back I will research into it and let you guys now how my adventure turns out. lol.... I'm a research first kind of person hahaha....
FILES
Soon I will type up instuctions for each KIT I put together. That way all the instructions will be able to be found in one place which will help out a lot of people looking for LG UP or Recovery.img or Twrp.img plus a lot of other stuff including SU zip file ect,,,
https://drive.google.com/open?id=10OXHQtyZBCap7PaqiGZEEErmo_th8xFp
The KTZ file would not upload but if You want I will send it no problem at all Just ask. I will be adding a couple other things on there too probably.
I believe my best bet would be to take that KTZ file (bugger wouldn't load onto my DRIVE account lol) but I thin I will take that and convert it to a zip file and maybe give that a shot... But when I flash something like that does it go under the BOOT or RECOVERY partition? I undertand what a partigtion is but I'm not sure of the difference between the BOOT and RECOVERY idea .... is recovery out ROM and BOOT our OS system?
