May have spoken too soon :(

So... Tried to actually test encryption by setting up my corporate email, and unfortunately, it asked me to encrypt again (even though device shows it is encrypted), and it didn't work, it reboots, shows the android animation and then boots up to the system (real fast like a regular reboot).

I have attached some screenshots to try and explain what I was trying to do.

1 - Device already encrypted prior to setting up corporate email in Gmail app.

2 - Setting up exchange account

3 - Corporate email enforces remote security administration.

4 - Activating Gmail as device admin.

5 - Notification about the exchange account needing a security update (this is where it normally asks to set up a pin/pw and encrypt the device).

6 - This happens when device isn't encrypted. Security update popup.

7 - Actual step requesting to encrypt device.

When plugged in and charged, and hitting on "Encrypt Phone", phone reboots normally and does not encrypt (according to email app).

I don't know if there are multiple encryption layers, but certainly my Gmail app + exchange account, does not think the device is encrypted :eek:

My next steps (yet to try), would be to try in a clean install, without any other apps, and perhaps trying in the email app and not gmail, although, exchange services should be the same, right?

[MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION] Sorry for the long post, I wanted to share my experience with device encryption.

Will these two changes mean we'll soon have expanded desktop back in CM12?

[Galaxy S 4 General] dandemonic:
Not 100% sure if this has any bearing, but I think the type of exchange service changes depending on which gapps package you flashed, for example PA GApps, (with the exclusion of nano and pico packages), swaps the stock email exchange service for a Gmail specific exchange service.
[Galaxy S 4 General] diegolopez10:
You are correct. Depending which gapps package is installed, then exchange services is replaced as well. But, don't know whether the level of encryption required by stock exchange services is different than Gmail exchange services.

Would need to test stock be Gmail. (I actually prefer stock email app, but, this time I used mini be micro, so lost the ability to add exchange to the stock email app since it was replaces by the gapps I used)

Xposed compatability with CM12?

Is xposed compatible with cm12?

Would it work.
[Galaxy S 4 General] dandemonic:
If by lollipop you mean cm12, then go into settings/developer settings and check root access for apps (and adb if required).

No, XPosed is not compatible. Cm12 uses ART, XPosed doesn't work with ART, only dalvik.

[MENTION=6273325]prmah[/MENTION] : Ok. Seems that Google updated something in lollipop (low level stuff) that broke all VPN apps. You just need to wait an update from your preferred VPN app provider :) OpenVPN has already updated its app/sources so you just need to wait a bit or use other available updated apps. Proper fixes that can applied at ROM/Kernel level don't exist. (maybe there are some workarounds but i won't implement them, i don't like workarounds if there's a proper solution here)

UPDATE:

[MENTION=6273325]prmah[/MENTION] and to all other VPN users

phone call problem

Hello, I have a problem regarding phone calls. When I call out, mostly from whatsapp or the dialer, I can hear the other side but they can't hear me. But when I restart the phone, its fine for a few calls and then the problem comes back again. There are no problems when people call me. Is this normal? Because I've been having this problem since the kit Kat build of albertos optimized cm ROM. I thought this ROM would fix it. But it didn't. Any possible solutions for this?

Thanks

Frapeti has fixed it (I don't know how though) in build 14 and I confirmed Astrill working perfectly with OpenVPN TCP and UDP using the same (not updated) app I used yesterday for the logcat I added in my previous post for you (where VPN did not work for me).

FYI... thanks again for your efforts in getting it fixed. :good: If and when I have an update for Astrill app I will let you know.

Eh yeah I forgot to say I am downloading 22v2 now and will feedback you on whether it works for me on your rom also.

Ok finally installed after cache and dalvik wipe.

Well about the VPN now...

Ah no for me VPN is not fixed yet in the 22v2 build. :crying:

I get the exact same errors as I got in previous build from Alberto96.

Log is attached and a screenshot with the error... I think it has to do with the DNS.

Frapeti's build works for me by the way... maybe you missed something.

Confirmed - encryption works!

Hi [MENTION=2386505]Alberto96[/MENTION], downloaded 20150122v2 and tested encryption and bluetooth calls (in car).

Haven't fully tested bluetooth calls, but the first one, worked fine, good audio.

About encryption, I can confirm encryption works on 20150122v2 (on a clean install), without installing any other apps (other than nano gapps), I used stock email + stock exchange services and my corporate email now works. So, I think phone is fully encrypted.

Just one thing, every single time I reboot my phone, an "android is upgrading" / "finishing boot" message appears for a second, then an error pops up at the screen where it asks for the encryption password, it reads "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped", this is easily bypassed by clicking OK, but then, 3 or 4 seconds later, it pops up again. However, I'm able to boot into the system correctly by entering the password, the error message is not seeing again until I reboot. (Unfortunately, I can't take a screenshot because system isn't up yet at that stage of the boot process - I'd have to take an actual photo with another device).

Just saying, device is encrypted, but there's that little annoying message on every reboot.

Also, like someone else mentioned in the main thread, weather icon on lockscreen is gone :(

and... I found that a bug on the recents screen is gone, before I had a "Couldn't load widget" message, where the Google search bar is located, now, the search bar is seen correctly.

Thanks for all your hard work!

Still have a question though, what's going to be the correct process to update my device once you release a new version?

Thanks again...

From the list of apps find Google Service Framework >> Clear Data and Clear Cache

Now install or update app from Google Play Store

It appears I can't install anything from playStore over WiFi, if I used data to download and install , it will work .

Edit:

Nothing above is sure , still facing randomly unable to install issues, the most reliable way is to browse the " all " tab in the "my apps" menu in play store app and click and hold any app then click install .
