[HELP] Broken touchscreen on encrypted Nexus 4



Hi guys,

i tried searching the forums, but i can seem to find a solution (if it exists) to my specific problem.

The story is that i had broken my touch screen to the point where only about 1,5 - 2 cm from above are working. I am stuck at the screen where i have to enter the password to decrypt and start android, but i can't press those buttons.

So, the question is: is there any possibility at all to access the data on the phone? Some way to externally control the phone? Would ADB work in this situation?

Thank you in advance for the help.

Adding support for encrypted /data partition into TWRP



Is it possible to make a build of TWRP with support for encrypted /data partitions in TWRP? Currently, if the phone is encrypted, and I want to flash a new nightly of CM 13, then I can't wipe the dalvik cache from TWRP.

OnePlus 3 [Encrypted vs Unencrypted] [Benchmark Results & Discussion]





Hey XDA.


So I'm guessing I'm not the only one wondering if the OnePlus 3 benefits or not from coming with storage encryption by default as per Android Marshmallow OEM requirements. So I put a little experiment together and decided to share my results with the XDA OP3 community.





Disclaimer




None of the results here should be taken as an absolute, as always these tests are flawed and should be taken with a grain of salt, the whole idea of this was to see if disabling encryption would boost "performance" on the device.



Testing Methodology




To attempt to reduce differences that could affect results between both testing scenarios (Encryption enabled and disabled) I followed a set of rules perfoming these tests:
  • Both scenarios had the phone with the same amount of data that is to say, same apps installed and files on sdcard as to replicate results on an equal and real environemnt (not freshly restored device with no data or apps)

  • Tests were run back to back for each set of tests. after the first set (Boot Time) there was a 3 minute period for the phone to cool down before perfoming the second set (Antutu) etc.

  • First all tests were run with encryption enabled after disabling encryption and restoring all apps and data a period of time (5-6min) was taken to ensure device was cool again before tests for the second scenario were started.

  • Boot Time was done by starting timer as soon as power button was held and holding until OnePlus Logo and Name appeared on screen, timer was stopped as soon as Lockscreen rendered.

Oneplus 3

Encrypted------------------------------------------- Un-Encrypted


Boot Time





0:30:82-------------------------------------------0:30:32

0:34:44-------------------------------------------0:28:98

0:30:78-------------------------------------------0:29:54

0:34:79-------------------------------------------0:28:32

0:34:28-------------------------------------------0:28:15


Median 1,2,3,4,5

M 33:02-------------------------------------------M 29:06 +12%

Boot Time saw a 12% benefit from Unencrypted storage which I expected but in my opinion isn't as big as a difference when compared to other devices with and without encryption before the Snapdragon 820



Antutu





stuck at 70%------------------------------------ 143698

143297------------------------------------------- 143213

141531-------------------------------------------- 142985

141849------------------------------------------- 142895

141501------------------------------------------- 142502

Median 2,3,4,5

M 142045-------------------------------------------M 142899 +0.60%


The first test performed on the encrypted scenario got stuck at 70% and as to not skew results the first scores for both scenarios were ignored when calculating median, here we can se a 0.60% increase in performance for the unencrypted scenario which in my opinion is too small of a difference to draw a correlation between encrypted and unencrypted and worth mentionting is that anyway I believe no significant differences would be tested and found here between both scenarios because of the way encryption works.




Geekbench





2409-----------------------------------------2396
5620-----------------------------------------5597

2433-----------------------------------------2406
5591-----------------------------------------5628

2428------------------------------------------2392
5587----------------------------------------- 5578

2439-----------------------------------------2390
5643-----------------------------------------5581

2431------------------------------------------2391
5569-----------------------------------------5544

Median 1,2,3,4,5

M 2428-----------------------------------------M 2395 -1.35%
M 5602--------------------------------------------M 5586 -0.28%

Here we can observe a decrease in performance of 1.35% in single core results and 0.28% in multi-core results which again in my opinion does not amount to anything noticeable in day to day usage and I believe is not the result of encrypted or unencrypted storage differences







Conclusion


Quote:














Based on these results and this personal experience only, I conclude that for me the only benefit of unencrypting my storage was a shorter boot time (~4sec) and performance wise there is little to no difference at all, and while the security benefits of Android encryption are questionable to say the least. some employers/companies require this to be enabled at all times, and since in these results the differences are so minisucule, there would be at a glance no reason to not stay encrypted if you already are. Although a more in depth testing methodology and cases where storage read/write speeds were predominant would be ideal to maybe see significant differences between performance of encrypted and unencrypted storage, I presume this would not affect a regular user enough to warrant the reformating of all user data if the storage is already encrypted, which will probably be the common state of Android phones that are coming out now and in the future.








Obviously this will not replicate the same experience anyone can have so I encourage anyone to reply to this thread with their personal experience on the matter, what is your opinion on encryption? and if you find this post helpful somehow remember to hit the thanks button on my post or any other user that replies helpfully to you. Thanks.




Teamwin v2.6.3.1 data encrypted



Good Afternoon,

I am runnning eclipse v8 and teamwin v2.6.3.1

I have a 2 year old that like to get my phone and watch those weird surprise egg videos on youtube. Last night she was using it and the phoone died and thought nothing of it. Till this morning when I tried turning it on and it got stuck at the Samsung logo screen. So i booted into recovery mode and was greeted with a prompt to enter a password to decrypt my data. I have never set a password. So something must has occurred when my kid had it that has now caused this behaviour.

I have tried all my common password and nothing is working.

Does anyone know how to get past this? I really would like to not lose my data. Any suggestions and help will be greatly appreciated!
