Device encryption not starting

[ccoager]

Using Stock 4.3 ROM from here,
[ROM][TW 4.3]VRUCML1_Stock_Root_Deodex_Aroma(02.10.14) - xda-developers

After a fresh install, wipe /data, wipe /cache, wipe /dalvik cache - I tried a full device encryption. I get a picture of a green Android but nothing happens. As I read, the device should reboot and start the encryption process. However, mine never reboots.

I checked logcat and it has some interesting messages,

Any ideas?
