[Sprint HTC One (M8)] roninj:
AOSP encryption support in TWRP

I am a ROM flashing enthusiast, and I love my HTC One m8. I am also interested in preserving my privacy and security on my device. I recently enabled encryption from cyanogenmod, but quickly realized that TWRP did not yet support AOSP encryption. I ended up having to decrypt my device to enable TWRP to perform backups, flashes, etc. again.

After googling I found vague references to "AOSP support in TWRP is in the works", but no specific details.

Is AOSP encryption support in TWRP for the HTC One m8 planned, in the works, or should I not really expect this to come anytime soon?

I love the work of Team Win, looking forward to the future! Thank you!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] TerrestrialHost:
Partial Workaround

For AOSP encrypted mods with TWRP recovery, you can find workaround instructions on how to do flashes here:

https:// www .bfccomputing .com/ updating-cyanogenmod-11-kitkat-milestones-on-encrypted-devices/

(Sorry about spaces, it's trying to prevent me from posting links since I'm a n00b.)

It's a temporary measure, but hopefully AOSP encryption support will be recovered in upcoming versions.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] roninj:
AOSP encryption now supported in TWRP 2.8.3.0

Yay!

As of 2.8.3.0, TWRP now supports AOSP encryption on the HTC One m8. You are now prompted for your password on boot into recovery, and TWRP can successfully access internal storage for backups/img files/etc.

Thank you!

:D
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
You're welcome :)

Just make sure you don't go back to Sense or GPE because TWRP can't decrypt those ;).

I want tasker to turn my screen on and unlock the screen so I'll go directly to the homescreen. I don't use a PIN or Pattern lock.

With secure settings I'm able to turn on the screen and disable the keyguard, at which point you already are at the homescreen. However the problems start when enabling the keyguard again (because when I don't, it will never have a lockscreen).

When I let tasker re-enable the keyguard it automatically goes to the lockscreen again, so it's useless.

Does anybody know a workaround?

Thanks!

I have tried it with 2 different Note 4s and both would not let me see who is calling me on the car dashboard screen.

I have 2013 Toyota Prius Package 3, and I think I have tried everything to make it work.

I paired it to the car, allowed messages and contacts to be displayed when the phone asked for it, and all the incoming calls still display as "unknown". I can see my contacts on the car screen when I click on the contacts tab, and I can use the voice command and dial people in my contact list.

My wife iPhone 6 does work, and show the contact name when someone calls.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcrussell50:
first, i have already unlocked my bootloader using windblowz on a boot camp partition of my mac. BUT, since android is a unix-like os, and osx is a unix-like os, FOR MY OWN EDUCATION, i want to be able to use the osx terminal to do this stuff to my n6.

so here's what i tried, and none of it works... as in, none of it even results in any like link between my phone and my osx computer.

1) i watched this youtube video from droidmodderX, and followed it to the letter:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUkcWlknFsE

from the time he plugs his n6 into his mac, NOTHING he says will happen, actually happened. it was as if i had plugged the phone into nothing. He says NOTHING about installing the android SDK for osx in his video. sooo....

2) next, i install the android SDK for osx, thinking droidmodderX was just careless in his video, and forgot to mention that you need to do this. NOTHING. i open the terminal and run the various fastboot commands from the root directory... NOTHING. using the terminal, i change over to the directory where i actually put the SDK, and then run the fastboot/adb commands from terminal again, and NOTHING. I tried this with the phone in fastboot, and with the phone not in fastboot, and NOTHING.

so how do you get osx to talk to this phone with fastboot/adb commands using the terminal?

fwiw, android file transfer works fine in the gui, so i know the physical connecction is good.

also, fwiw, i did use the search function and someone asked a similar question about his n5 about a year ago... and got no answer. not a single one.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamesadalpiaz:
If you run "./adb devices" without quotes does it see the phone at all? Make sure you have the most up to date SDK for OS X and also make sure you update the platform-tools in the SDK manager.

Check this thread out, might help a bit.

EDIT: Try running the commands as root/sudo.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geebee1932:
I used this method on my MacBook Air to root my device without any issues. Make sure that you are in the correct folder when executing the commands. The first time it should ask you for your password. Also make sure that you have USB debugging enabled on your phone and that you are in the bootloader. You can also try to download Android File Transfer (google it) and see if it works with your phone. Hope that this helps.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sn0warmy:
You're aware that the bootloader on the Nexus 6 can be unlocked simply by toggling "Enable OEM Unlock" under Developer Settings, right?

With that said, I agree that it is smart to keep up with proper ADB/Fastboot commands as those are the most sure fire way to get you out of a pinch.

I have had absolutely no issues using Terminal to perform Fastboot commands on my Nexus 6 using my Mac with OSX Yosemite. As long as you get it setup correctly you should have no issues.

I just dug up the detailed instructions I used to get my Mac setup for this. Start from scratch, follow these instructions and you should be good to go:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcrussell50:
what method? can you be more specific? did you mean to put in a link describing the "method"?

I ran all the fastboot commands, to the letter, from the youtube video, from the terminal, in the folder where i had the SDK. nothing....

It didn't.

I did.

As I said in my original post, I already have Android File Transfer, no need to google it. It works great. Had it for years.

I made some headway when I started using ./adb before each command. It sees my device now and when i ran ./adb help, it put out a list of commands and switches in the terminal, that I'm starting to play with. thanks for the ./adb clue. that was a biggie :) now using ./adb i can reboot and boot into bootloader. but for example "./adb fastboot oem lock", (without the quotes), does nothing. (i used "oem lock" as a test, because the bootloader is already unlocked)

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pcrussell50:
thanks mate. that's the second reference to that link. it must be good :)

and geebee, sorry i sounded so douchey. i know you're trying to help. i was frustrated.

-peter
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geebee1932:
No worries at all - I was frustrated myself until I found the YouTube video. I think after ./ you need a space before you use the command line. What I did was put the CF auto-root folder (unzipped) on my desktop. I renamed the folder CF to make it easy. I opened the folder and doubled clicked on the Mac file. It should open and say just press enter - it will not work. Keep the folder open and open up the terminal. Here is what I had to do.

Put the phone is download mode with "Start" appearing - then plug into computer. (make sure debugging on)

cd /Users/mycomputername/desktop/CF - I needed a space after cd

paste and copy the 3 sudo commands (with the sudo) out of the CF folder one at a time - pressing enter after each.

The first enter - you should be asked for your password.

I know, I know. I've started lots of threads.

I've got two questions, mainly... here goes nothing:

1) What are the best ROMs that don't have many carrier-specific settings? I live in Mexico, so most of the Cingular/T-Mobile things don't help.

2) Is there any fast way to get the Wizard running as it was before the flash? I'm sick of installing all my apps every time I flash.

Thanks in advance.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hiimcliff:
all roms are not carrier specific. all you have to do is soft reset before the auto install for the extended rom starts.

there are lots of backup and restore software but from what i hear they never work good. so i always install my programs myself. get something to save your registry hacks. so you wont have to do them all over each time you hard reset.

I've had my 32GB Nexus 6 since 11/19 and am really liking it. I have over 25 GB still after loading all my typical music and apps. At this point, I'm not really sure I want a 64 GB--though I had initially wanted one--even didn't try to buy a 32GB the 1st week looking only at the elusive 64's.

How many of you 32'ers out there still want more memory?
[Nexus 6  General] ketjr81:
I've always had either a 8GB or 16GB phone, 32GB is already a step up for me. Even with 16GB I never filled the phone up. I'll typically have some pictures and music on my phone, I don't have a need to keep a bunch of stuff on there that I'm not using. If I needed to go over 32GB's there would be a lot of stuff on my phone that I never use.
[Nexus 6  General] TheAmazingDave:
I was originally pining for the 64GB, but just to have the best of the best.

My Nexus 7 is 32, and I've never come close to filling it. I'm sure that's different for everyone, but with cloud services galore I need very little storage for shot vids and pictures. With all apps installed and 20+GB to spare, I no longer regret my decision or want a 64GB model.
[Nexus 6  General] LeoRex:
The 64 would just mean 32gb worth of extra crap wasting room.

I don't store much locally other than backups, so I have plenty of room.
[Nexus 6  General] uhguy:
I had a 32gb LG G3 with a 64gb Micro SD in it before the Nexus 6. I used approximately 5gb on the card and maybe the same on the phone. More than 32gb is overkill for me since I don't put music on the phone and I don't download tons of games.
[Nexus 6  General] RW-1:
I haven't pulled the trigger on the N6 yet, awaiting to see how VZ will screw me over...

On the side though, currently using a GNex, I never filled it up either, have about 10Gb free, however that said, I haven't loaded games or a lot of apps onto it, only what I need, and if not used often I uninstall basically to not have to deal with any background processes that may run due to an app being installed.

But given the choice, and I hope I am, I'll likely settle on the 64Gb, because I typically only have one phone at a time, and keep it longer then what most of us here would consider normal, I mean, I'm hitting three years on the GNex, and figure I'll be doing the same if it is an N6, so for a few bucks more grab the extra storage, easier than wishing I had it IF I fill up a 32Gb ...

I have had a Nexus 5 with 32 GB for about a year, and it almost always has > 20GB free. I figured if I never used all the memory on the N5 I sure didn't need twice as much on the N6, so I went with the 32. I'm sure it will be more than enough.
[Nexus 6  General] funkyboy1281:
Would I have loved getting a 64GB? Yes but the 32GB will do just fine for me. Coming from a Note 2 I barely used any space on the internal storage and I really only used about 15GB on my 64GB micro sd card. I mostly stream my music so I won't have to worry about that. I also don't keep numerous roms on my device storage either. Worst case scenario I'll just by an OTG flash drive if I really need the space.

So I had been a flashaholic since L dropped onto AOSP and flash numerous of different roms ranging from R2 to R7 etc. All of them seem to suffer the Wifi drain bug that kind of bug me some even though I charge my phone often throughout the day. The other day, I was at dinner and streaming Youtube for 20 minutes and the batter sucked up ~25% battery juice, I mean it shouldn't be.

Anyway, I got fed up and decided to try something different in which I went back to KK 4.4.4 stock image, and then upon booting up, sideload the OTA zip for L and surprisingly the battery had been great so far given same usage.

the thing that confuses me was that I thought the later pushes to AOSP have the wifi bug fix, no?
