    Hmm, on Android I tried encrypting my phone, and I was almost ready to do so, though it changed my unlock pin (for unlocking the phone every time I take it out of your pocket) so that every time I take my phone I have to fill in the password I encrypted my phone with. Is this intentional? If so, isn't that very inconvenient? If not, how do I fix it?

      VGP Google only tracks Andriod by IP unless you let them have location access and leave it on. You would be able to see the last known location, but most criminals would probably pull out the Sim card so it wouldn't have data and it couldn't be tracked anymore. :/

  • @AndrewMackoul
    @AndrewMackoul 9 років тому +2

    I am almost with this but I think the main reason is performance. I know you have the LG G4 (so do I) and did you encrypt yours? How was the performance on it differ from before? One thing to note (on android) once you encrypt and want to go back, it would have to lose all your data.
    BTW newer android phones have a similar feature with Apples iCloud Lock where even from the bootloader (really called "recovery") you try to reset it, it requires you to login from the google account before.
    Anyways not trying to dis- you on anything. Great video!

  • @michaelelkin9542
    @michaelelkin9542 7 років тому

    I think encryption is horrible. My question is simple, would you rather loose the data on your phone or have it become public? For me the most important things on my phone are my photos of family and friends. I have it backed up to the cloud, but that always has issues now and then and to me any picture is priceless and everything else is worthless.
    Encryption might help you but most of the time it will just cause you to loose data if anything goes wrong. I already hate the security on phones and encryption is just that much worse.

    "You can try 10 000 pin combination in an hour or so" ThioJoe, are you serious here? If you get the password wrong around 3 times, you'll have to wait a minute before entering the next password and most phone will either lock the phone completely for 30 mins when you get the password wrong again. I mean brute forcing a pin number of a phone is really a stupid idea.

    I never encrypted before because I hate using a password or code to unlock. I found it to be inconvenient when I needed quick access to the device. Now I have a different mindset and would like to do this process.
    Well it's been over two hours since I encrypted and I still can not get my device to boot. The process worked, but after it would not boot up. been trying to get it to boot and or reset it back to factory so I can decrypt it.
    Lesson learned, I'll never encrypt again. This was not worth it at all. Back to trying to get my device to boot so I can at least use it.

  • @MikeTrieu
    @MikeTrieu 9 років тому

    No, Joe, the performance hit is not negligible on most devices today. In fact, that's why Google backed off on their hard-line stance to require all OEM partners to make disk encryption mandatory and permanent. Flash memory controllers just weren't performant enough to handle the simultaneous reads and writes necessary to support the feature until UFS was standardized.

    • @FahadAyaz
      @FahadAyaz 9 років тому

      I'm guessing they seem to have solved the encryption issue with regards to noticeably degraded performance. It's now mandatory again on new devices that come with Marshmallow out of the box.

    • @MikeTrieu
      @MikeTrieu 9 років тому

      Fahad Ayaz The proviso was that it was only mandatory on devices with controller hardware that could handle the I/O requirements. I'm guessing that's partly why Google's interested in getting into the chip design business. They're sick and tired of OEMs dragging their feet on vital functionality.

    • @FahadAyaz
      @FahadAyaz 9 років тому

      +Mike Trieu (MegasChara) Yes, that's right. The I/O speed, after encryption is enabled, needs to be greater than 50MB/s to pass the CTS. I think chip design refers to the SoC/processor so that wouldn't make much difference. The biggest bottleneck is the flash storage on the device! I do wish Google would officially support F2FS, as that runs quite stable and has significant performance improvement on I/O speeds.

    • @MikeTrieu

      +Eddie - E11World Once the decryption key is provided on bootup, the device will automatically decrypt all files. Encryption will only be helpful if your device is powered off since it will prevent criminals from removing the storage and get it in readable form. Otherwise as long as the phone is booted up, it will work exactly the same as it did before. So yes, files and other type of info can still be stolen.

      Apple or Android there are a slew of programs. At the bare minimal can convert the messages to .pdf or some other format.
      The first rule of computers. If it at all important to you. Backup all the data.
      Another first rule with computers. Anytime you perform a major refit, upgrade, etc. Make sure you backup first.
      Encryption the drive. Backup first.
      Unencrypting a drive backup first.
      Transferring data to a new drive. Backup first.
      - Happened to me recently, but fortunately I was able to retrieve all the data. I had updated to a newer version of FreeFileSync. It did not and still does not work properly on my system. That was a close one. I did not realized it happened.
      Remember the 3 2 1 Backup Rule:
      At least three copies of the data.
      Two types of storage media.
      At l least one off site.
      It was a mixture of all of these that allowed me to reconstruct the archive from bits and pieces. Remember, I did not realized what the program was doing. Since some of the drives were platter drives. It was reasonably easy to use file recovery software.
      Also depending on the brand of your devices. They have custom backup to hard drive or cloud features. Apple is classic for that. Take some extra $200 to $300 and buy some spare drives. Hard drives with out without enclosures are pretty cheap. Even SSD technology is becoming more affordable. SSDs are not 'better' than platter drives. Each of the technologies their strengths and weaknesses. As far as price. The SSDs 1TB to 2TB ranged drives are 'reasonable'.
      Again the technologies, depending on what you want out of them. Each have good and bad sides to them.

      That's REALLY bad, from a security view. Maybe get a phone with a decent fingerprint reader on it?

      You probably had an older phone. I had an older android phone and encryption was a pain, but since android seven and higher. Even cheaper phones boot a lot faster.
      Secondly, if you 'anybody' to have complete access to what is on your phone. That would be foolish.
      I am not a computer at a company but reading these forms and threads online I do have a certain respect. Especially for the bullshit a lot of them have to deal with. I have had coworkers, friends, and family ask me about computer security. Since I read a lot about it.
      You remind me of many of them not even willing to do some of the basic stuff to secure their accounts. I send them video and text guides.
      Most use the same password on everything.
      I would hope in the past three years you realized how foolish it is to not encrypt your phone.

    If you encrypt your phone with a PIN, can someone still try out all the possible combinations?

      Well, yes, but there is a way around that. The person who hacked the iPhone did it within 48 hours and by only spending 100 dollars. NAND mirroring allowed him to make an image of the phone's drive, transfer it to a workstation, remove the password limit identifier, crack the password brute force, and then use the discovered password on the encrypted phone.
      Originally the FBI refused NAND mirroring, saying it would not work. It did, the FBI's not doing cost us a LOT of tax dollars.

    Why not well listen to this: my sibblings and friends are constantly trying to get access to my phone i had to wait like 1 hour one time until i could enter the password so if i would have enabled encryption all my files would be gone.
