Hi folks,
Is there any way to get device encryption with root for the H918? I need encryption for work (and also would like it in case I lose the phone). I can live with stock root or a custom rom, as long as device encryption works.
Thanks!

Hello,
I have very important security needs and I'm forced to have my data encrypted everywhere.
However on all my old androids phone encryption work perfectly with custom recovery and root.
How can I enable both encryption and root on my brand new SM-G950F ???
I have look everywhere, impossible to find anybody who have an encrypted S8 running with Magisk and a custom recovery
I have experience with Android and Linux and I am willing to try everything to avoid reselling a phone that I love and that I bought just today...
I have the very same problem. Did you find a solution for having both, root and encryption?
i would like to know also

Hello, on my Galaxy, the encryption function is gone and i was told it's because i rooted the device. Other function aren't working and few troubles comes in. I need to know if this is the same with the LG G6. Let me know, thanks
You can root LG G6 without losing any function, you van even keep encryption (although there are some problems with the recovery)
I'm not sure if you may not be able to see DRM protected content, as I've never used it
Actually, i said wrong : it's not that encryption is gone, it's here. What's gone is the option to have your pattern/pin asked during boot. That's a security i can't live without. So after rooting, is this option still available on the G6 stock rom (wether it's nougat, oreo..)?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
On G6 if you set a pattern, you need it to unlock the phone after booting, always. Also, there is another extra option (see image)
I would say that the option is still here on unencrypted phones, but I can't confirm 100% since I have the phone encrypted. (on nougat)
Hi, after over a year without unlocking my Moto G 5 Plus I'm eager to make the move to unlock and root it. But I've seen that things have changed quite a bit since the last time I rooted my old phone.
As far as I know unlocking the bootloader wipes the DRM keys for ever. What implications does that have? Is there any way to back them up before unlocking to restore them later? What won't work without them?
Will it influence Netflix and Banking apps like Mobilepay (Denmark)? From what I could find out Magisk can help to patch the system without being detected. How does Safety net detect system changes? How to prevent an accidental system change that would break SafetyNet? What about future updates to SaftyNet?
I'm mainly planning to unlock Camera2 API and Miracast. And also install XPosed and some audio enhancement mod if possible. Would any of these break SafetyNet? Would a 64bit ROM break SafetyNet?
Any information is highly appreciated.
Hi everyone, for using custom ROM we have to unlock devices bootloader and then decrypt data. So basically we are allowing our devices for malware attacks and hacking. I have used many custom ROM but this is my query that is is really safe while using Paytm, banking app with decrypt data. Is any rom which runs smoothly with encrypting data again another than stock ROM ? Isn't we compromised by doing so?
This is very clear that due to lack of customisations we prefer to use custom ROM but is it safe if we use banking apps when we unlocked bootloader and decrypted our data ? Expert advice needed
If you had unlocked your bootloader, your device is easily accessible by hacker but real world speaking, you wouldnt even encounter this problem on normal basis. Virus or malware arent that dangerous when you have supersu because you can now easily fix it via pc unless you grant suspicious program root permission. Now back to your question, I recommend you to set password on your custom recovery and just download app from xda.
Get Samsung phone with knox xd
Hi!
I have issue with app on my S7 Edge that demands me to unroot. I rooted my phone 5 years ago or more and I don't remember a thing about it. I did this to permanently remove bloatware. Only way I know to unroot is to flash stock-rom again but I don't want to loose my hard effort on debloating + data and so on. Is there any tricks for that? Like hide/remove su binary? I really don't remember where to start. Also with factory reset or something I cant remember I lost root access partially - that is apps can still tell that phone is rooted (root checker tells that root access is available but then also orange warning that root access is not properly installed on this device). But they can't request root privilege for some reason. But I still have this custom recovery rom installed where I have basically root access to phone - do you think I could use this to somehow hide temporarily root from my app that is complaining about it and then later restore root to the full - that is to make apps able to request root access again? I would like to keep my apps/data and I remember them getting lost in process of rooting due to some samsung encryption crap - not sure how to check data/app loss would be case now since I did it so long time ago. Could anyone help me out?
For documentation purposes. So in my case I had lost root with factory reset. I had to boot into TWRP and re-flash super su. Difference from official tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ial-twrp-for-galaxy-s7-edge-hero2lte.3334084/ was that in step 9 my phone did not complain about dm-verity,. I did not have to disable encryption and I did not loose my data. Someone may correct me but it was because I had already rooted in past and the most likely cause for "loosing" root was doing factory reset. PS I have european model so I am not sure how much it makes this tutorial different.
Now what is left to do is come up with ideas how to hide root from 1 specific app in Android 7.
