Guest zlod Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 has anyone tried the encrypt phone option? i was wondering if it slows down the phone when booting up (and presumably decrypting) or if there are any change with the phone's performance? also - what's the best way of doing a full backup of the phone, apps, rom etc so things can be properly restored if it does slow things? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hippy dave Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 No haven't tried it. Let us know if you do :-) Use your recovery - CWM or TWRP - to take a full nandroid backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest george109 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 It *might* slow the phone down, as it has to encrypt and decrypt on the fly. But make a backup and try it, and if you don't like it, you can simply restore the nandroid backup! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zlod Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 I tried to set it but having problems with Stock+ as it just keeps rebooting and asking for pin and doesn't seem to encrypt anything ... oh well! Might try again with a different rom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
