[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EverSoJoe:
Hi all,

I have a question about encryption on Android 9. I recently fixed up my old Nexus 5 to use as a test device and set it up with the newest Unlegacy Android (Pie) ROM (OpenGAPPS Mini, Magisk 17.1) and enabled encryption on it. So far so good and everything works perfectly without any Problem.

As I was always curious about changing the encryption password on my current daily driver (Nexus 6) because I use a fairly short passcode to not make it annoying to get into the phone, I searched a little and came across the App SnooperStopper, which would do everything I wanted: Make it able to use different passwords for encryption and the lock screen, but also secure the lock screen in a way that after some failed unlock attempts the phone would reboot, requiring the full encryption password again.

After testing on my Nexus 5 I found out that the way the app changes the password does not work on the newer Android OSes anymore. (I also tested the method mentioned on this XDA Blog post without success)

So my question is if there is an updated way to change encryption password or if there is any other way to achieve my goal of having different passwords for encryption and lock screen as well as making the phone reboot on too many retries.

Thanks a bunch!

~Joe

Maybe a bit late, but it might help someone else, as I was looking for a way in Oreo or later the last 2 days too.

For me this did not work and just made the phone hang for a while and then reboot after entering the encryption password.

An alternative way I found was to set a password normally (the one you want for the disk encryption) and then just delete all these files and restart the process of setting a new lockscreen password while denying to turn on the boot protection. This might work on some devices, but according to the following link, this doesn't work for example on LineageOS 16.

Also it seems like LineageOS 17 and possibly other Roms reenabled the old way of changing the password in the Terminal. See: https://github.com/nelenkov/cryptfs-password-manager/issues/25

I wished I could do it without installing any apps, but I am not knowledgeable enough to proceed further. For me the only solution was this modified version of the cryptfs App. The normal install process is explained there as well: https://github.com/thedroidgeek/cryptfs-password-manager/releases

Here is how I installed it:

1) Install the App

2) Get the 'App Systemizer' module through the Magisk Manager (https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-terminal-app-systemizer-ui-t3585851)

3) Install Cryptfs App normally

4) Run 'systemize' as root in a Terminal app (I got a busybox error and ignored it)

5) Choose 'Systemize Installed Apps (Listed)' and find 'Cryptfs Password'

6) install into '/system/priv-app'

7) For me it errored out saying that the app already exists, ignore it.

8) reboot

9) Start Cryptfs App. If the process of making it a system app failed, then the app shuts down with an error message about needing to be systemized.

10) set your encryption password in the app.

11) Reboot, check if it works

12) Disable cryptfs App and the App systemizer module, no need to keep them running until next use.

The difference to snooper Stopper is that you can't set any actions to take if the password is entered incorrectly a few times. However if that functionality is needed, you can install snooper Stopper afterwards and just ignore the password change options and just set the behaviors.

Not sure really how to explain this but I usually install my Magisk modules through recovery, but I went and did them through Manager, but they weren't installed, so I went to recovery and I couldn't find them, at this point my SD was formated at internal, so I formatted back to portable. They're there now but I can't install. IDK, there's a screen shot included here, I'm gonna add some more of what I feel might relevant. Also why does twrp ask to decrypt at every boot? Thanks in advance.

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
You could see the charging port cutout in the case pictures but not one for a jack. It could be the port isn't visible in the pictures because it's inboard enough not to be visible in the head on shots of the cases.

My guess however would be that much like the notch speculation with the Pixel 3 XL this is probably wishful thinking. I'd be happy to be wrong...

there are zero excuses to remove already existing and well proven features that previous phone has.

I'm waiting for sams s10plus to replace my trash oneplus6, hopefully Samsung isn't retarded yet and will deliver proper phone with zero compromises.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] krabman:
Compromise is often an opinion rather than hard fact. I never use the headphone jack as I went wireless years ago for my gym cans; this makes the port lost space to me as filling that space with battery would be better than losing it to something I don't use.

I'm wondering if you've been on Samsung lately because there has been bootloader shenanigans and other issues over there, to my knowledge zero compromise does not exist in the mobile phone world. You kinda got to pick your poison.

My intent is to provide flashable debrick files for myself and others, from dumps. I am using [MENTION=6556954]smitel[/MENTION]s patched Lgup Tool (check out the G5/v20 threads). I was able to configure and do complete dumps for several lesser developed (but widely used) LG models: Stylo 3 LGLS777, Stylo 3 LG M430, and X Charge LG SP320. The dumps are large, 14.5GB and between 51-61 files. The problem I have, and which will reveal my ignorance, is that the files have no extentions and are listed: Aboot_COM8, Abootbak_COM8, tz_COM8 etc, img files all I'm assuming. I tried several tools Kdz extraction tool, lg extraction tool etc but none worked. Ext2reader/ explorer don't read them. How can I create kdz/tot files from these dumps? Flashable zips? Thanks for pointing the way.

I am also interested in knowing how I can extract the contents of these files or how to mount them, I need to recover data from the userdata partition when I see their concern, it came to my mind that this can also be useful for me. :confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ablutions:
Idk yet. Kdztools, LG firmware extractor tool neither work read the raw files. Nor does appending the _COM8 (or what ever). Nor does renaming .img. Idk if I have the tools misconfigured or the wrong tools. I just need to read more. Let me know if you make progress.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] strubedo:
Do you have dump for m430?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ineedroot69:
you have the stock firmware?? usually you just change the file extension to .zip and extract it with winzip after your partition will be extracted such as boot.tar.md5 , recovery.tar.md5, system.tar.md5 after that just rename them .tar remove the .md5 and just download LZMA unpacker and drop them on it and you will get .img

I recently gave this cell phone and wanted to force the update of this, so I installed an update apk and after this I jumped an update to 5.1 and all right until I realized that I did not read the SIM and the IMEI was "0 "

Then I got scared so I started to research and I got to learn a lot from the rom system, recovery, adb, fastboot. the first time I connected my cell phone was AFTER updating the firmware and simply the pc did not recognize the mobile, I did not see any notification or anything, as if nothing was connected. I need you to help me install the drivers, please be patient and I will be aware of any response. Thank you.:crying::crying:

Can confirm working on s9+

Only problems I've had is Bluetooth car phone calls apparently sound like garbage to the other person and when the phone call ends it doesn't tell my car it's ended and when it resumes music it sounds like someone putting sound dampening material on my speakers. I have to turn my Bluetooth off and on again and it's fixed.

Also popup view isn't working correctly. The X at the top where you can drag the popup to dismiss it won't leave until you stop the process which is just a quick restart for me.

The original post says dual cameras isn't working yet but it does for me. I have normal and telephoto buttons in the camera app.

WiFi calling also doesn't work. Nor does device care.

I also feel like my Sprint LTE slowed quite a bit. Nothing loads nearly as fast on data.

My wife's S8 bricked itself after an update. Got the update, she used it for about an hour after the update. Put it on wireless charger. A couple hours later, the phone would not wake. The red charging light would not turn off. It would not wake when plugged in. It would not boot into download mode, nor would it boot to recovery. It was stuck in Qualcomm Chip mode.

Needless to say, that's when she got her S9. When I migrated my line off my parents family plan onto my own plan is when I got my S9+ - I got to take advantage of the new Military One plan, and the Samsung Military Incentive price on my phone.

You will have to unzip ALL the same files again and just copy over the old ones.
