General :: Ice Cream Sandwich Full Device Encryption And Flashing
Dec 13, 2011
If one enables full device encryption in Ice Cream Sandwich, am I correct in assuming that that the internal SD of that device is now not going to be available in the CWM recovery mode? And even if it was, the root fs would not be available? If so, this pretty much would make CWM flashing your device near impossible?
Does CWM even work if you use FDE? Or is it planned/
The question I guess is, when do you input your encryption password? Is it some pre-boot step?
I really want to enable device encryption but I can't find enugh details on how it works.

I'm on gs2 I9100 cyanogenmod 9 and can't find a solution to encrypt internal databases like sms, call logs, contacts... ( so in /data).
No problems with documents in container created by luksmanager. But i wonder is it possible to make a sort of preboot script who mount after correct passphrase a luks container who is symlinked in /data ? Because android ics built in encryption installation stop at beginning.
Is there now new method or app to encrypt full or partial phone? Maybe new encryption function or improvement in JB? Pattern/face unlock fixed?

So the title may be a bit hard to comprehend but the gist of it is that I turned on full device encryption and since then when I transfer the pics off the phone to a computer they cannot be viewed. The message I get is corrupted metadata, the sizes on them seem right, I have not tried to view the exif data through a utility yet to see what exactly is corrupted.
I can still see the pics on the device, and share them online, but when I copy them off of the device they are broken. I've tried a couple of jpg recovery tools without any luck.
Most similar posts I've seen related to this is a corrupted sd cared (but this is on the internal one and only started after I turned encryption on).
And to confuse things a bit more, if I email the pic off it works correctly. So the problem seems to be just directly pulling them off the device, or browsing them when they are on the phone but connected to a machine. Same thing happens in linux and windows with various software.

It is apparent that prior to ICS, ad hoc wireless networks are not supported: URL>....Does ad hoc wireless is supported under ICS? I can't seem to find ad hoc wireless networks on my U9GT 2 tablet, running Android 4.0.3.

I have a Lenovo IdeaPad A1 tablet. I recently Changed phone carriees and got an LG Optimus L9. The tablet is running Gingerbread and the phone is running Ice Cream Sandwich. I seem to only be able to sync from tablet to phone. Are there computability issues between the to OSs? I had no issues syncing when both tablet and phone were running Gingerbread, my previous phone was an LG Optimus Elite.

Is it possible to apply an ice cream sandwich layout and a morph (so you have both of them applied? I have the ics status bar layout and whenever I apply the morph, before or after applying the patch, I get tons of FCs. I was just wondering if there is a way to have both.

What is the font for Ice Cream Sandwich Lock Screen Clock?
It should be Roboto right? But when I tried to replicate that clock with UCCW using Roboto font, it just looks different.

I'm having trouble getting my code working on ICS. It worked perfectly on my old DroidX, but I just got the new Galaxy Nexus and my code just returns null every time, as if the app isn't connecting to my servers or it's using a GET request when it should be using POST. Below is my code,
Code:
//---------------- AUTHENTICATE LOGIN ---------------------------
public static String authenticateLogin (String usr, String password, String updateDataNames, String updateDataUsernames, String updateDataPhone, String updateDataRadius, String updateDataChecked, String updateGPS)

When I go to system settings -> security -> encrypt phone, with phone fully charged and plugged in and a suitable PIN set, the phone reboots back to lock screen but does not appear to do anything to actually encrypt the phone. After reboot, the option remains looking identical in the settings menu. No error messages or the like.
The lock screen works fine (PIN required), the PIN is suitably long, everything is updated, etc.
I'm not sure what the issue is. I rooted & changed ROM immediately on getting the phone (it's new), so I don't know whether it would've worked w/ stock bootloader / rom / etc.
I'm running:
Nexus 4 (android 4.2.2)
ParanoidAndroid 3.65 (pa_mako-3.65-20130712 + pa_gapps-full-4.2-20130710)
TWRP bootloader (openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-mako)

I'm interested in encrypting my phone (rootbox 4.2) including the external SD Card (if that's possible..?) but i need to know if you do it, then let's say you take that sd card out of the phone and plug it in your pc, how do you access the data? And is that still impossible to unencrypt the phone after it was encrypted (i mean on last android versions)?

I am running Android 4.1.1 on a Samsung GT-I9250M Galaxy Nexus.
Third, I have two carriers: a Straight Talk Unlimited Prepaid SIM (United States GSM/HSDPA) & a Claro Prepaid SIM (Honduras, GSM)
1) I installed the Straight Talk SIM in the phone.
2) I installed the battery in the phone.
3) I powered on the phone.
4) I enabled full disk encryption, choosing an easy-to-memorize password.
... over two weeks, i successfully decrypt the phone on boot 30 - 40 times with the password ...
... then i travel to honduras and purchase a Claro SIM ...
5) I powered off the phone.
6) I installed the Claro SIM in the phone.
7) When prompted to "type password to decrypt storage" I enter the correct password.
8) I am prompted to "try again."
9) I enter the correct password.
10) I m prompted to "try again."
11) I powered off the phone.
12) I installed the Straight Talk SIM in the phone.
13) When prompted to "type password to decrypt storage" I enter the correct password.
14) I am prompted to "try again."
15) I enter the correct password.
16) I am prompted to "try again"
I have tried booting with the Straight Talk SIM, the Claro SIM, and with no SIM. I have tried removing the battery. I am able to boot in Recovery Mode. However, performing a factory reset is not a viable option for me. I need to regain access to my phone. Why would the encryption key be altered by the SIM change? And wouldn't reinstalling the Straight Talk SIM be enough?

Any way to revert back to a gesture-based lock screen after enabling encryption on my LG730 with android 4.0.4. I ran the SQLite queries (had to pull the DB and edit on my PC, then push it back), generated a gesture key and pushed it to the phone, restarted and... no dice. The lock screen is still asking for a password to unlock it.

I'm from India and we do not have full play store. As soon as I login even when using USA VPN, play store shows me only apps and not the full version. as soon as i logout i can again view full play store.
Till 2 days ago I was able to access full site after login. On same PC when I use my brother's id I can see full play store. Something wrong with my account. It seems like Google has blocked my account for these services. M not able to make any purchases other than from App section.

I tried to install icecream sndwitch on my kindlefire by following the instraction of the website. (liliputing.com).
--installing /sdcard/USBWOOT.zip...
E:Cannot load volume /misc!
Finding update package...
Opening update package....
Installing update......
Random offset: 0x11c
E:Cannnot load volume /misc!
Wipe Cache/Dalvik------------------ Main Menu----------------------------Reboot System
After installing the USBWOOT.zip by using TWRP, i hit the reboot system, but my kindlefire can not boot with newly installed android os. my kindlefire continue to get in TWRP again and again. I checked boot file on my kindlefire by using android-sdk-linux, but there is nothing in it.
How can i boot my kindlefire again? I think that installing icecream sandwitch is the last resort to use my kindlefire, because amazon does not offer os recover instractions and files.

Enabled native encryption on phone and SD card. Phone took a dip in the ocean. Files on the SD card need to be decrypted, and none of the posts I've read are user friendly to a person with almost nill Crytpo experience.
I understand native encryption uses AES128, but I haven't found an explanation or program that will decrypt individual files.

If you enable device encryption on devices with external sd card, the external sd card always remains unencrypted. As you cannot really control for every app where to store its data, you have some of your app-data on internal sd (encrypted) and some of you app-data on external sd (encrypted). To me this seems to be a security hole, concerning device encryption. why cm team does not include encryption for external sd cards, like some oems do? They put so much effort in security features and on the other side they leave parts of the local storage encrypted?
