[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ionutz6:
the problem with google maps is that it is not at all useful in some parts of the world, namely romania, where i live. therefore, igo or miomap are the only choices. as i was saying, the igo or miomap seem to install correctly, but then it doesnt run, it doesnt start, without an error or anything. and thats a really show stoppers in our case for the ROM itself, because it actually deactivates the GPS function of the tytn2, one of the most important i may add...

thanks again austinsnyc for your understanding and for trying to fix this.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] bnycastro:
austinsync [nice id by the way :)] have you tried shape services im+ v4.54 on your custom ROM doesn't seem to be working in the uncooked WM6.1, it installs ok [no error messages] but it won't start up. Also do you use SPB PocketPlus 4 is it compatible?

--

as for the reboot bug:

if I use Sprite Backup to do auto backups, and it wants to reboot the device to start the process if the bug is there if won't be able to do so meaning my device won't get backed up? is this correct?

thanks for sharing and any info you may add about the above questions :D

Still having a problem with automatic reset

Austinsnyc,

I am still having an issue with my phone not automatically resetting after installing a app that requires an automatic reboot. Is there any registry fix that I can do to solve this.

Thanks in advance.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] UnicornKaz:
I'm starting to base my conclusion due to these cooked ROM contained .NET CF version 3.5 instead of the widely used version 2.0 ... most softwares out there are made compatible with version 2.0 and below ...

version 3.5 is too new and I think it's the culprit of some of these programs not being able to install/run properly. ( eventually there will be softwares that is compatible with v3.5 ... but for now ... it is too new )

ie. I have iGO and having problem installing/running ... works fine with WM6/ .NET CF v2.0 :cool:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brarry:
Context

Android uses the same PIN (or pattern) that is used to unlock the screen to decrypt the disk. However the actual decryption key is bound to the device via some internal device key. So ideally you can only decrypt the disk on the device itself, and the device can delay the process and ultimately delete any data if too many failed attempts are made. This is the same concept that's used e.g. on ATM cards, which lock themselves after a couple of failed attempts, so a 4 digit PIN is enough.

Except that's not true, at least not for Qualcomm chipsets, where you can extract the device key, than brute-force the PIN externally, which shouldn't take too long for a 4 digit PIN. See [1]

So I want a strong password for disk encryption, but still a 4 digit PIN for unlocking. I tried the Cryptfs-app, but that crashed, so I used the "vdc cryptfs changepw ..." command on the commandline to set the disk encryption key. On the next reboot, the phone asked for my password, but didn't accept it. So reset everything, and try again. I did this a couple of times with the same result but ultimately got it work by making data not encrypted and then encrypt it using "vdc cryptfs enablecrypto ...".

Not sure exactly what went wrong there, but I saw a couple of QSEECOM errors in the log (QSEECOM is the component that communicates with Qualcomms "secure" execution environment).

This is on a BQ Aquaris X with TWRP and SuperSU but otherwise stock firmware (Android 7.1.1).

The worrying part

Now here is, what worries me: Whenever the phone didn't accept my (correct) password, I rebooted into TWRP. TWRP then asked for my password to decrypt data, and did so successfully. Except it also worked with the wrong password! Apparently during the boot process, when Android asked for my password, it actually decrypted the key and kept it decrypted over a full reboot! Some component didn't get properly reset. I checked by entering the wrong password during boot. When I then rebooted into TWRP I actually had to enter the correct password for it to work.

Now, that the system is working (i.e. it actually continues to boot after I enter the correct password), I cannot reproduce that behaviour. A reboot seems to always clear the key. But who knows, maybe with some trickery it is still possible to keep data decrypted over a reboot. Given how buggy the implementation seems to be.

Question

Is anyone aware of a known bug where the disk encryption key is kept decrypted over a reboot? I couldn't find anything about this.

Conclusion

Use a strong password for disk encryption

Even if you do, don't trust your phone and don't keep real sensitive data on your phone

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Utini:
3 years later on Android 10 it seems like this issue still exists? And I wondering why encryption is even enabled because it offers basically not protection.

The only workaround in Android 10 that I could think of:

I can use faceunlock for the lockscreen and for the decryption after a boot up. So basically I never really ever have to enter my PIN or pattern.

That means I could use a really strong and complicated PIN or pattern and there for increase the security of the encryption.

How ever, even a 12 digit numerical PIN or pattern (a pattern is basically just a numerical PIN) won't take long to bruteforce.

[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnbravado:
So of course since i am rooted i could not just simply download the update. I was part of the developers preview though and was running OPP3.

So i downloaded the Android O Factory image from google and installed it manually expecting to have everything wiped. After install though using fastboot flash of all the images, all my apps were still present.

Is this normal? Did it full y install correctly? I was expecting to have to reinstall all my apps and re-setup device. Or because i was on developer preview and part of the beta testing within google they spared me the act of wiping my device?
[Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpkeith29:
Same experience with N

I had the same experience with N preview. I went from rooted N preview back to stock N. I installed the N factoruy image and didn't have to reinstall everything. AFIK the only reason that the device would be wiped is if you rolled back to the previous version (ie unenrolled from beta). I haven't bothered to root since then and am on 8.0 build OPR6.17623.010 which came as an OTA today 8/22. The only thing that I have had an issue with is the Pixel Launcher never upgraded to the latest version. The installed launcher ver is 7.1.1-3705938. I can't find anything related to the Pixel C launcher version anywhere and Google support was useless... a 30 minute live chat where I asked "what is the current version of Pixel Launcher in 8.0" was ultimately answered with "you will need to reset your device". Yes, that's always the best course of action. What launcher version do you have?

[Samsung Gear S3] Eddles:
Hi all,

I'm deaf and recently had a newborn baby - the existing baby monitors for deaf people aren't very effective and due to the massively thick walls of our house, the monitor range only reaches less than 15% of our house and have no coverage in the kitchen & living rooms, the two most important rooms. So I'm looking into using an old smartphone with a baby monitor app. I've found Dormi which seems to work OK, and it shows up notifications in my phone's notification bar, however, nothing comes into the Gear, it keeps saying "No notifications received". I tried a test Whatsapp message and the notification comes up OK, and all other notifications works fine. I've double checked the settings and it shows that the baby monitor app notification for the Gear is enabled?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
[Samsung Gear S3] :
Hey,

I noticed that the notification sync is not always that good and not all notifications are supported.

Notification cannot have the "Ongoing" status (ex. charging your phone) and need to be cancellable (be able to swipe the notification in order to close it).

It seems that the app you are using does not comply with those rules.

You could contact the developers and ask to support the gear OR you could create a flow or task in something like "Automate" to listen for the notification and automatically create a new notification that does sync to the watch.

Regards,

Davey

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] TabletConnect:
I bought my Pixel in Nov 2016. Battery lasted on average about 1 day & 10-20 minutes based on my personal usage. In the last few weeks, it barely lasts 24 hours. I haven't added any new apps. My battery usage info doesn't show anything unusual or an app consuming a lot of battery. I downloaded GSam Battery Monitor but that doesn't give details on app usage unless you are rooted which I am not.

Have others also experienced poor battery although the phone is not even a year old?

Any ideas on what it can be? I haven't changed my usage either (I only monitor it on weekdays since that usage is basically the same each day).

Just an example here: took off charger 52 mins ago and it's already at 89%.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] roadblock217:
What software are you running? If you don't get the OTA for 8.0, I'd enroll in the Beta. This will prompt you to get the official release at this time. Once that's installed, I'd Factory Reset data and start from scratch.

Alternatively, you can uninstall apps one by one to see if there's an increase in performance/battery life. Also, maybe try wiping cache to see if that helps.

You have to give the software about 2-3 days to learn your usage so that it can set everything for you, if you just installed Android Oreo, then, it's going to be at least a day or two before your battery corrects it self.

Android is typically built for the specific hardware it is installed on. Stock firmwares and ROMs from one model number can't be used on another model number. 99% of the time, that bricks devices.
