Hey,  I have been working hard to migrate my forums from PhpBB 3.3(latest) to IPS 4.4.10 (latest). And there is an issue about converting a members. After the conversion completed, our user can't login into their forums account. The system said a passwords were wrong, and this happened to me aswell. When I tried to logged in, the system still says the password was wrong, even though I put the right password. BUT, if you manage to set password/forgot password/change password and resetting them. You can log into the forums smoothly, however I can't do this if I should change their password manually from acp/making announcement to them to force using FORGOT PASSWORD and change their password personally, because I got a large communities with almost 5k members, and 250 active members forums each day. Is there any tips? Or this happened due of PhpBB and IPS hashing password are different?

I need ya all assistance from this, thank you.

The password system for PHPBB3 is not the same as for the Invision Community, so your users will have to definitely do a password reset. The password is because two forum software uses a different password hashes. So, both hashes are different from one another.
