Notes about encrypted backups:

Why encrypt your backups? -- Most people store their backups on the device. Any app that has permission to access storage could potentially read your backup files and try to harvest your data. Encrypted backups also provide an added layer of security if you move your backups to other storage devices or to the cloud. The encryption that we're using is probably not strong enough for enterprise level security, but should be strong enough to make it significantly difficult to get to your data.

Encryption is using OpenAES which uses AES 128-bit cbc encryption. If you happen to use a longer password (over 16 characters) then the encryption strength improves to 192 or 256 bits. Do not forget your password. If you forget your password you will be unable to restore your backup. We don't encrypt the entire backup. Encryption is very CPU intensive and can be fairly slow even when we spread the workload over multiple cores even on the latest high-end devices. To ensure that encrypted backups don't take forever, we don't encrypt any other partitions besides /data and in /data we don't encrypt /data/app (or other app related directories where apks are stored) and we don't encrypt dalvik cache.[/FONT]

What's new in 2.5.0.0:

Special Note: If you are running a custom theme, the changes in 2.5.0.0 will likely not be compatible with your theme.

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Added scrollable partition lists for mount, backup, restore, wipe, and storage selection[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Add new SliderValue GUI element for selecting brightness and screen timeout (thanks to Tassadar)[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Re-work AOSP and TWRP code to improve license compatibility between GPL and Apache[/FONT]

Added official theme for 1080x1920 portrait devices (HTC DNA, HTC Butterfly, Oppo Find 5, Sony Xperia Z, etc)

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Fixed a problem with directory permissions on split archive backups[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Fixed a problem with md5 verification of backups[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Added a search function to libtar (thanks to kokotas)[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Improve handling of XML errors (fix permissions)[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Fixed handling of subpartitions[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Improvements to recovery.fstab flags[/FONT]

[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode, arial]Fixed a problem with decryption not being able to locate the decryption key in some situations[/FONT]

What's new in 2.4.4.0:

Added another libtar hardlink workaround to fix restore of some backups (usually related to Ubuntu Touch)

More fixes for the file selector

Switched from using busybox md5sum to a direct C function call

Fixed capturing the exit status of tar based backups/restore - TWRP will display that there was an error if there was one again

Update exFAT to latest commits

Added a build flag to disable using the ioctl for screen blanking

What's new in 2.4.3.0:

Fixed 2 bugs related to restore, one dealing with mknod failures (by bigbiff) and one dealing with restoring hardlinks (by Dees_Troy)

NOTE: If your backups weren't restoring correctly in earlier 2.4.x versions they should restore correctly now. Hopefully you didn't delete those backups. If you're still having problems, run the restore, go to advanced and copy log, then give us the log. Complaints without logs will be rightfully ignored.

Added a scroll bar to file selectors and listboxes courtesy of Tassadar

Added libblkid for more accurate detection of file systems and can now detect exFAT properly thanks to bigbiff

Added a screen dim effect 2 seconds before screen off on some devices

Finally fixed file selector crash (one of the joys of working with multi-threaded software)

Fixed loading of screen timeout setting during startup

Improvements and bugfixes to screen timeout code

Fixed persistence of the 24 hour / military time setting

What's new in 2.4.2.0:

Add screen timeout - screen will turn off automatically after 60 seconds, saves battery and prevents screen burn-in especially on AMOLED devices

Add a brightness setting (requires device specific setup and only some devices have been added)

Add a root checker and offer to install SuperSU if the device isn't already rooted

Add a write buffer to libtar backups, significant improvements to speeds when backing up to exFAT target, minor improvements for other file systems

Check and offer to fix root permissions if broken

Add an option for a 24 hour clock display instead of AM/PM (aka military time)

Move stock recovery reflash check to occur during the reboot cycle

Add support for some MTK6xxx devices

Change libtar to vfork to help prevent memory problems

Add a "clicked" effect to most buttons, file selector, and listbox

Improve timezone listbox to be more like file selector (per pixel kinetic scrolling, etc)

Remove some no longer used settings (Forced MD5 sum on zips, size checking on image backups)

Other minor bugfixes and improvements

What's new in 2.4.1.0:

Fixed a problem with mkdosfs that formatted sdcards to 2GB

Fixed handoff between vfat and exFAT on devices where blkid didn't detect vfat (fixes some issues with mounting sdcards)

Fixed problems with changing working directory on MD5 creation/checking that may have prevented unmounting

Backups will now store a copy of the backup log after the backup is completed (only if backup is successful)

What's new in 2.4.0.0:

Using libtar instead of busybox's tar for better control over tar file creation and breaking the 2GB barrier that busybox imposes (thanks to bigbiff)

Support for exFAT formatted sdcards (also thanks to bigbiff)

Support for decrypting Samsung TouchWiz encrypted devices including internal and external storage (special thanks to a3955269 for figuring it out)

Improvements to OpenRecoveryScript including displaying a proper GUI while the script is running

Added wipe cache and dalvik after ADB Sideload

Replaced many system calls with their native C counterparts

Fixed bugs in file manager where it would display an empty list after moving or deleting a folder

Fixed AOSP recovery commands to run after decryption on encrypted devices

Improvements for building TWRP in CM10.1

Other minor bugfixes and improvements
