CM12.1 Encryption locked me out of my fire. What now?



In short: CM offers me a 3x3 matrix to unlock my device but my pattern needs a 4x4 matrix.

Hi, I previously installed CM12.1 on it following a video (the old FireOS version was 5.0.1) from rootjunky.
Yesterday I tried to encrypt it via the option in settings. Now asks me to enter my pattern to start Android and it displays a 3x3 dot matrix but my pattern needs a 4x4 matrix. Thus I can no longer access it. The data on the tablet is irrelevant and can be wiped if necessary. What should I do? Should I a factory reset?
Maybe I am using the wrong keywords but I haven't yet found a helpful forum post.
Please help. Thank you!

regards
Axel
