Hi, I recently got some problems with my device.
Q1: I want to disable password on my device, but once I try to I can't click on "None" and it says: "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage", what does this mean, and how can I still disable passwords?
Edit:My second question is fixed already

Probably because you have a vpn configured or something like that.

Nope.. I didnt set up any VPN connections or anything else...
This is the translation in english:
Disabled by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage.
So you either installed an app that forces this, you encryped your device, a setting you set on or something similair.
It can be multiple things.
I want to change my lock screen type to pattern but I cant click it! It says: "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage."
Help!
Looks like there's an app that has upped the security level. Check under Settings --> General --> Security --> Device Administrators. It should only list KNOX and Android Device Manager (if you enabled that).
In your another thread u said u encrypt your phone right? If you read encryption rule u will not ask such a question over here, once u encrypt u have only one option to lock your phone.

My VPN I've used required a phone lock screen. Try enabling a swipe code or pin and doing the VPN.

Hi,
I'm using Lineage 16 from Haky. Is there any way to enable full phone encryption ?
In case this is not possible, is there any custom ROM supporting it ?
To be more precise, i'd like to sync some personal datas with my phone. I'm using SyncMe Wireless, which is not encrypting saves. Is there another way (ie with a local vault) to encrypt theses datas on the fly ?
Thank you !
Noone ??

since Android 6.0 Android is encrypted by Default I read
my Haky LineageOS 16 is encrypted, by default.

Nope, you're wrong.
You can check the encryption status in Parameters -> Security & Localisation -> advanced options -> Encryption and logins.

Hi there,
is it possible to encrypt the tablet using the stock rom? Can't find the option in the settings, only to encrypt the sd card.
It's encrypted by default:
Settings >> Biometrics & Security >> Other Security Settings >> Strong Protection

Maybe they meant FDE rather than just the FBE that most new devices use?

No, the encryption of Galaxy Tab S5e is definitely File-based one (FBE) because no Secure Startup menu is available...
or just type getprop ro.crypto.type in Termux and you can see the answer (file)

Yeah, most new devices are FBE. My thought was the OP was asking for a way to enable FDE. However you could be right FBE confuses some users as they don't realize the device is still encrypted as it doesn't ask for a password on boot.
I've got FDE on my S9, didn't know FBE existed. Thanks for clarifying things for me!
