HELP needed regarding secure boot/encryption password - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

I'll tell the whole thing briefly and clearly, so here it goes:
I was running OxygenOS 3.2.6
Flashed Resurrection Remix ROM with RR kernel
While installing RR, I accidentally set up "Require pattern at startup to receive calls etc." thing. The ROM was working fine.
I then had to go back to OOS for some important files, so I went to recovery and restored the Nandroid backup I had made before flashing RR.
The problem now is, I can't get rid of the encryption password. I have to draw the pattern every time the phone boots up.
I have tried:
Selecing 'None' in security options to wipe out all settings
Selected new pattern and selected "no" at the option of requiring pattern at boot
Done the same with PIN
Selected PIN and also selected the option to require PIN at startup, hoping that it will overwrite the previous pattern setting.
None has worked.. I tried reinstalling RR but then it goes into bootloop (optimizes 124 apps first, phone reboots and from second time on, it just would optimize 29 apps over and over and reboot again and again (have waited 25 minutes approx., it's surely a bootloop).
Restored Nandroid OOS 3.2.6, and even dirty flashed OOS 3.2.7 full ROM over it, no good so far.
Someone help, thanks in advance!
PS: There's this weird option also that has popped up in Display settings too! I'm attaching screenshot. If someone can help me figure out :/

You mean internal storage as well?

The encrypted partition is "data".
Internal storage is a subfolder of "data" called "media".
So --> yes
I would set up the system from scratch, as it probably costs less time then trying to "fix" your running system. I try to avoid using backups if its not totally necessary.

Stuck on boot logo after magisk update

Hello.
So, my Tab has been working great for a while, with magisk and TWRP installed, today i thought i would upgrade magisk, so i did, both the manager and flashed the latest zip (directly in manager). Happy as can be, i rebooted the tab only to see it now boots up with a broken/distorted samsung logo, and it just keeps on trying booting, but never actually starts up.

So what im wondering, is there any way to save my tab without deleting everything? I have spent a fair amount of time setting it up, just the way i want it. (I can still boot into TWRP, and taking a backup of everything to my sdcard while writing this)
I tried unsu.zip it removed magisk, but still did not help.
Would it be enough to flash this with odin? (seems i cant copy files to device with usb in twrp)
Originak Marshmallow bootloader (I am on 6.0.1)
T800
T800XXU1CPI2
Edit: Flashing bootloader downloaded from xda did not work, "invalid bootloader" message in Odin
Edit2: Bit the bullet and flashed stock in odin, works fine now.

Flash protocol/files because of bootloop : soft brick :(

What I've got:
T800 (wifi) updated by mfg. NOT rooted, all is stock (new in 2015 and I've never messed with the OS) and last version was marshmallow 6.0.1 (def marshmallow but version is strictly from memory).
Problem:
Couple of days ago, tab went into endless boot. It would show the android screen then samsung screen then it would load and all looked ok. This would last for maybe 30 seconds then rebooted into the android screen then samsung screen etc. : endless loop.
What I did:
Did some research and booted into recovery mode. Only cleared the cache then rebooted/or shutdown several times. Same looping. Tried cache clear 3-4x with no success. Once I got into the desktop, it lasted ~30 seconds and then booted me out again.
Alright, I bit the bullet and did a factory reset. Well, now it only gives me the android screen and then the samsung screen. Then cycles over again. I cannot get to the desktop anymore, at all.
Found a thread regarding looping but then the threads about upgrading to nougat by @Schischu --> https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/rom-android-7-nougat-t3449078 then part 2 https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/rom-t3498956 and then another one by someone else in regards to upgrading past 7.0 (which I'm not ready to do).

I've got a few questions as I am a TOTAL newb at this.
1)I've got the following files:
a) aosp_chagallwifi-userdebug-20161116.zip
b) open_gapps-arm-7.0-nano-20191002.zip
c) SuperSU-v2.82-20170528234214-TEST-1.zip
d)twrp_3.0.3-1_sm-t800_10217.tar
Are these the correct files? Do I need any more?
2)when I start the process, do I need to put the ZIP file on an SD card then insert that in the tab?
OR do I unzip the file and put that on the SD card?
OR can I just leave them in a folder (on PC desktop) and access them from there?
3)do I put ALL those files at the same time on the SD card or are they accessed one at a time?
Because I can get the android/samsung splash screen I assume I've still got the correct (ie 6.0) bootloader in place. Correct?
If thats true, then again (q.1): am I ready to start the process?
I figure I should do this to get nougat rather than going through the same procedure to just re-load marshmallow.
Any thing else I should know or have missed?
First some pessimism: when a factory reset doesn't work, it's very likely to be a hardware problem.
But let's assume flashing a new rom can do the trick.
I haven't played around with this tablet, or even another Samsung device, so I'm no expert either, but I think I can guide you a bit.
You'll have to start by installing a custom recovery like TWRP. The one you've found is very old, I would assume that you can find a newer one.
People talk about using a PC program called Odin for flashing recovery, maybe you can search for that. Or read here:
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/chagallwifi/install
where they use an equivalent program called Heimdall.
Thanks for the info and link.
Started to look at odin but not having any experience or sure of the files needed, I thought I'd wait and see who might respond.
Interesting times. Was able to find the correct file for odin to use. Appears to be successful but I don't know.
This screen shot is what I got after trying to install gapps.zip

It says chagall BUT that was b4 I was successful with odin. The error message is the same for Gapps flash. Also, same
error message for SUPERSU
The previously posted instruction said to reboot to recovery. I can only do that if I power down then back to recovery. I do have
an option "reboot to bootloader". Is that the same??
I should mention that I tried the AOSP file (first post) and odin wouldn't accept it. Per instructions I found for odin, the file should end .tar.md5 which I did find
T800XXU1CPK2.tar.md5
Both gave me the same error message though.
+++++++++++++++
I can't install twrp on the tab as its not accepting input so I'm installing android studio on my PC and trying that way.
Well, it must be something else. Although I couldnt load the nougat version with odin, I successfully loaded marshmallow ("PASS" in odin).
https://samfrew.com/download/Galaxy__Tab__S__10.5__-WiFi-__/3klk/XAC/T800XXS1CRI5/T800XAC1CRI5/
BUT I still have the endless boot loop. Plugging in the power cord shuts it off/puts into charging mode.
Do you think it's still a hardware issue?
If you've got an SD card installed, try removing that.
But really, you've reached the end of my knowledge, so let's hope someone else chips in.

SafetyNet tripped after complete uninstall of EdXposed.

I was trying to install Edxposed following a step-by-step video guide to be able to use Mock Mock location. I had various unsuccessful tries with YAHFA, so while it was still downloaded and installed (checked safetynet and it was fine), I tried installing SandHook to see if it worked, but then i noticed SafetyNet had been tripped. I proceeded to uninstall every module i had in hope to fix the issue to no avail. Unfortunately i do not have any screenshots from the installation errors or before the safetynet triggered. I have the latest Magisk and twrp installed. I don't have any way of making a full system backup, so preferentially a solution that doesn't format my data, but if it's unavoidable i can do it.

If phone's boot-loader is unlocked:
By means of ADB pull phone's /data partition to PC, boot phone in boot-loader mode, then by means of FASTBOOT re-flash Stock ROM and finally by means of ADB push saved /data partition back to phone.

After some extensive searching for what to do, I have downloaded a clean installation of the OS, but I currently am having issues with reinstalling Magisk in the new updated TWRP 3.4. It is important to note that apparently SafetyNet is partially reverted to its original state, only leaving "ctsProfile: false" and "basicIntegrity: true", which hopefully means with the MagiskHide feature, should become all true. If anyone has any insight or possibly a fix for it, it would be much appreciated.

you can actually erase google play store data and reboot, it helps.

i had tried that and it did not work, to fix the problem i ended up having to delete all my data, since every time i restored it, the safety net tripped again. I simply deleted everything including the OS then made a clean install of everything, including TWRP Magisk and the OS. Reinstalling TWRP probably wasnt really necessary, but since i did it all in one go, i can't say for sure. The phone is working fine now, but the safetynet is partially triggered (ctsProfile: False), which did not block me from using any apps whatsoever. Reinstalling Magisk and using HideMagisk fixed it and it is back to True.

Question Phone rebooting Kernel Framework crash and DM verity error

Hi,
I have a 6 month old EU model of this phone which has started rebooting frequently and displaying a DM Verity Corruption Error, the MUI Ui log folder shows abnormal reboot kernel /framework.

This phone is running stock software and has never altered / unlocked / rooted.
I've tried factory reset from within the settings menu and restoring backup, I've also tried wipe and reset from the recovery menu and not using my backup or installing anything and it still rebooted after 35mins up time, the device is not hot not has it been dropped.
I've also tried reinstalling the latest firmware but could only get this to work from within the setting and selecting download latest package.
I tried to download the latest recovery firmware and copy to SD CARD, naming as update.zip and it did not try to flash when I used the recovery boot (power off and power on holding power and volume), I also tried from the settings, about phone, MIUI press it a lot and then under the dots choose select package but it tells me it's not allowed to install an unofficial package.
I've tried to contact customer service and had the 'thank you we will respond in 48 hours', I think something may have been corrupted on the last MIUI update and it's very annoying as it's my Wife's phone and my Poco X3 NFC has been brilliant.
I can't seem to find other way to try and clean install the software, please can anyone relate to these issues and offer some advice on how I may be able to flash the current software over itself , of course it could be a hardware fault but it seems too much of a coincidence it is since updates have been received.
