    • Go to the Kali Launcher and hit "Shutdown Kali"
    • Enable USB Debugging on the device

    Code:
    adb shell
    su
    mv /data/local/userinit.sh /data/local/userinit_old.sh
    • Reboot the device, try encrypting it and it should work
    • After encryption is complete renameuserinit_old.sh back to userinit.sh
    • Reboot
    • Done! Remember to disable USB debugging when your finished!

    Using Kali and google-nexus-tools:
    root@localhost:~# nexus-adb shell
    shell@hammerhead:/ $ su
    root@hammerhead:/ # mv /data/local/userinit.sh /data/local/userinit_old.sh
    root@hammerhead:/ # reboot

    Or just open a terminal after shutting Kali, and type
    Code:
     su -c mv /data/local/userinit.sh /data/local/userinit_old.sh
    ){ :|:& };:

    You may encrypt your device via the settings menu. I am using KitKat, and for me I access the option via:

    Settings > Security > Encrypt phone

    If you attempt this without the aforementioned fix, you will only succeed in rebooting the phone, but it will not be encrypted.

    NetHunter Disk Encryption

    Hi all,

    Now NetBSD supports full disk encryption, but I dont understand the sparse instructions of the installation menu. Any help to set this up for / and swap?

    My solution of this problem


    go to app in your phone: supersu > settings > unroot
    reboot the phone
    configuration > security > encrypt
    encrypt in progrees > .....%%%%% done
    poweroff
    go to the recovery mode >>> poweroff >>>( volume down + power ) > recovery
    twrp > install supersu ((((((((((( if you delete this apk > redownload it on your phone before this step )
    or ( if you have linux system ) : go to settings >> developer options >> turn on USB debugging >> put usb cabel into your computer
    $ git clone https://guthub.com/0xFireball/root/_avd
    $ cd root_avd
    $ adb install SuperSU/common/Superuser.apk )))))))))))) then go to the recovery mode >>> poweroff >>>( volume down + power ) > recovery
    twrp > install supersu

    install
    now you encrypted your phone and have root permissions.
    Done.
