- Reproducible with the last /e/ version: Yes
- Reproducible with LineageOS: Device not supported
Summary
After a fresh install of e-0.8 I can't encrypt the device in Settings > Security > Encrypt : the smartphone just restart and nothing is encrypted
- The bug concerns security
- The bug concerns privacy
Solutions
Go into TWRP > Wipe > Advanced Wipe > select Data > Repair or Change File System > Resize File System > swipe to confirm. Reboot into the system and try to encrypt again, this time it will work.
