Try this (replace <LUKS_device> and <backup_file> appropriately): 1) backup current (invalidated) header to some file (just to be sure) dd if=<LUKS_device> of=<backup_file> bs=512 count=2056 2) recover magic string echo -n -e 'LUKS\xba\xbe' | dd of=<LUKS_device> bs=1 seek=0 conv=notrunc ... and try to luksDump it, then luksOpen.
