Wrong pin issue - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers

Hello,
last week i decided to upgrade to A11 rom (PE+). Before i ran PE+ A10 for months without problems.
I upgraded my ofox to latest 11.1 stabile. Then Format data, wipe etc.
Now whenever i installed a rom, after a short time when rebooting system my pin isnt recognized anymore from screen lock. Theres always this "wrong pin" warning. So i cannot access my phone.
Ofox cant decrypt seither, because oft wrong pin...
Since then i Tried many different Roms (A11 and A10) and even different recoverys (twrp, los, older ofox) and firmwares.
I also reverted back to my old PE+ A10...and now even there the bug appears!
I also tried deleting all files with "lock" in it under data/system...but that leads to neverending boot-time...
It is so annoying..i dont know now i can get my phone back to function properly...
Maybe anyone has a clue whats causing this all oft a sudden?

Where can I get the Google Apps Addon?

I went to Cyanogen 5.0.7 Does anyone know where I can get all the google apps for my phone?
Market, Maps, Google Talk, Gmail etc..
For some reason I thought it would back up the apps then port them over or something.
theres a link to it in the original post in the CM5 thread.
That link seems to have been down all day. Are there any other sources for the file?
My problem was I didn't follow the xda tutorial, I went to the wiki and followed the normal one, and just put 5.0.7 instead of 4. whatever. ( I sure did get lucky.)
Somehow or another I missed the part that said "Install the DangerSPL if you don't already have it"
Anyway if you don't have it, the phone acts a little weird, and the gapps only puts a gmail link that does nothing.
Anyway, just to make up for it I went through the tread and found a few links to the Google Apps (which I already had before making this thread lol)
so after much looking and carefully arranging the links I found out that I can't post links go to the thread and it's on page 3 if you want a mirror. There's also at least 5 other pages with mirrors
In case you don't know how to install it, just throw it on the root of the sdcard and boot to the boot rom thing whatever it's called and do that install any zip from sdcard then select this.
Bleh, I can't post outside links so I'll just link to a page that has the files you need
Sorry about creating this thread, I'm sort of a noob when it comes to phone modding.
Thanks a lot for the replies!
I had trouble with a newer version of DangerSPL. Make sure the version ends 2005 (see "How Do I check if I already have DangerSPL?" on the DangerSPL cyanogenmod wiki page)

Hola
You've not read the right forum threads or you've have not read enough of the relevant threads! I know it can be confusing as so much info is indeed all over the place.
TRWP v3.0.4.0 works but yes some folks have seen issues with it. The most recommended version is TWRP v3.0.3.1 which you can find from the official TWRP website:
https://dl.twrp.me/ailsa_ii/
Do note that you HAVE TO format your data partition to use EXT4 file format in order to boot into LOS. You do this from within TWRP, under Wipe, Advanced Wipe, Select Data partition, Change File System (or something like that), and select EXT4.
Read like the last 10 or so pages of the Official LOS thread to see what others have seen and some feedback from others. That's the main one I keep a watch on.

I've been keeping up with all the good threads around here since before I got my phone. That being said that version info must have merged with all the other stuff I read. Thanks for the info

Apps can't access SD after nandroid backup

On my Moto Z griffin with LineageOS latest nightly, after I've done a nandroid backup with TWRP, it seems that apps can't write anymore to the SD (adoptable).
For example WhatsApp can't download images or video, can't do a backup of the chats, apps don't update (error code: 963).
I've tried to chmod 777 the whole data folder, but it just doesn't change permission.
I've tried to do another nandroid backup, but nothing.
I've updated the the latest nightly, but nothing.
I've formatted cache and dalvik, but nothing.
What else is left before doing a factory reset?

I thought that this was more of a general LineageOS problem than a device one.

I never stated (nor intended to state) that it was a device issue but, the first 2 links on my last post are to the Official LineageOS thread for your device as well as the TWRP thread for your device too.
Go to the LineageOS thread and post your issue to, hopefully, get a response from a member with some further guidance.
It never hurts to ask...

(how-to unbrick your realme device) fastboot needed fix inside.

I Went totally nuts last night when i bricked my phone so i did figure out my self how to unblock the phone.
First you need to BE ABLE TO ENTER FASTBOOT it won't work without it and you need working TWRP.
First you need to go to TWRP and go to mount and unmount everything and disable MTP.
Then go to Advanced and select Terminal
type in LS make sure there is 2 Folders one called system and one called system_root
make sure that the system folder is empty if empty type in rm -r system
and rename the system_root folder to system using mv system_root system
after that boot into Fastboot mode and Flash your Rom for your Device using the Fastboot Tool
Hope that works for you guys.
The real mistake is when your device brick with locked bootloader, all the other cases are solvable.

That's interesting, i thought it works only if you relock bootloader and then update fw
