Encryption is it worth doing

All of my study is in the city so my tab could get stolen one day and at home i have a younger brother who loves to play with settings etc
Is the encyption worth the hassle?
Does it break anything?
Do i have to decrypt re-encrypt every boot is it slow?
I have never had this option before but it seems like a good idea i just want to know how it plays in real world use before i do it.

The problem with having an encrypted partition is that CWM at moment can't really do anything useful to those partitions. You cannot flash, backup, or restore via CWM. This means your ability to work with custom ROMs is effectively crippled. In fact, to undo the encryption (or if you forget your password), I had to nvflash back to stock. Factory reset via CWM cannot be done since, again, the partitions are still encrypted.
If in the future, CWM is able to access the partitions like the stock recovery can, then you'd be fine.

I wouldn't touch it for now. If/When CWM allows for it (possibly ICS, as I might guess that the closed nature of HC is limiting development around encryption support?) then maybe..

Thats a good point ae hopefully with icys than can also make abit more headway with the more advanced recoverys to
Never thought about that before thanks

Interesting! Please inform us (and make a screenshot).

So far I have noticed that woke in recovery (twrp) it will not show me to wipe anything. And while in fastboot, it won't allow me to erase any partition. It will allow me to flash over but not erase.
In recovery it says 'failed' unable to mnt /data partition.

I'm gonna try to delete some apps and see if it has that dumb a$$ write protection kernel again.

Yup new kernel has write protection. Even after flashing jmz's disable wp zip. I'll upload the boot img so maybe a dev can figure out how to remove it

You are still S-Off? With S-Off you should be able to delete System apps.

Yeah still s-off a reboot after flashing jmz's disable wp.zip now can delete system apps and mnt /data

Hmmm, it seems I have yet to receive this update... I wonder why that is. Guess they thought it wasn't important for me to have it ha!

If you got it saved then anyway you can upload it and be so kind as to share? Seeing how it hasn't come my way for whatever the cause may be lol.

package installer
this is a system app. place it in
/system/app
set permissions to

and reboot

Hmmm, well, thanks, much appreciated. Seems as when I rebooted my phone the update finally came in haha. Even though I had already followed through with yours I proceeded forward with the update none the less and allowed it to install. Not sure if it overlapped what you gave me or if the system picked up yours to begin with. Either way, all seems well so thanks.

Before the new 2.1 update they were jus black boxes.
And the only fix ive been able to find is going into Recovery (TWRP) and clearing the cache.
When i do then i get this.
I had this issue on a Rooted version of the Stock ROM. Then i tried Beanstalk and had the same problem. Now im on this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-stock-goodies-nexus-5v-1-t2596173
Not sure what the name of it is buts a Stock version. And as you can see I still have the same problem.
AHHHHHH Its driving me crazy because everytime i reboot I have this issue and then have to boot into recovery and clear the cache.
Going into Apps and clearing the cache and data of the app does not work either.
I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it samething.
I tried using a different messaging app. Same thing.
I looked at the APNs and there are like 8 of them for messaging (AT&T)
The default is the 1st one. I changed it to the 2nd to last one and had the same problem. And it keeps going to the 1st one when i clear the cache.
Please HELP!!!!!!! Its driving me nuts!!!!!!!

Did you change anything in the build prop? Like from user to debug? Or try And activate multi window?

I did change something in the build.prop. I'll change it back and see if that works. Thanks!
Edit: I swapped the original build.prop back and still no luck getting rid of the debug buttons

If it acts like multi window does after switching build prop back android retains the multi window functionality. I bet if ya dirty flash the rom again it may make it go away

Use titanium and remove camera app then reinstall from play store. Just a last ditch idea.

Thanks for the response. I thought that had worked but no luck. I guess I'll just have to deal with it...
Edit: I figured it out! I had Switch Access turned on in the Accessibility settings. Turning it off solved the problem. Thanks again for the responses!

That's odd. I know it's not much help but I installed it without any issue.
What region/country is your phone's ROM? Also have you tried an older version of the Amazon app or downloaded it directly from Amazon?

Had the same happen to me. One day it wasn't compatible, the next day it was compatible but couldn't load any images, then back to being incompatible again.
I gave up and just used Hermit to create a web app. Works perfectly.

Did you download the latest version of Amazon App directly from Amazon?

I don't know if it's related, but I had issues getting the Amazon app to show my apps. The solution was to update to the latest Chrome browser. Then everything worked. If you don't have the lastest Chrome browser installed or updated, maybe do that first and then try installing Amazon again.

You have to make sure Google Play Services gets updated.

Did you ever find an official solution for your issue as I'm having the same issue.

You can download Amazon Underground app from amazon site instead of google play. It works fine on mine.

Thanks a lot for your solution. I'm already using the underground-app but it makes me nervous that my phone seems to have some ID that isn't known to the play-store.
