Has anyone encrypted their device?
If so, have you noticed a significant loss in performance and/or battery?

Bump. Anyone?

I'm going to try it today on the nexus 7. It seems it'll decrypt on unlock, so I'd imagine unlocking could be slower but once you are using phone nothing else should be effected. It causes no ill effects on my 7 then I'll do it to the gs3 as well.
I would try it on my Xoom, but the performance between these two devices is signifcantly different.

I would like to encrypt mine GS3 also. I wonder if I encrypt both phone and SD card will it affect it, if I want to install Custom ROMS or Restore ROMS since you do that from clockworkmod recovery? and it's way before your phone decrypts on unlocks.

Just recently I noticed that I can not save anything new to my SD card. I can delete something off the card only for it to reappear. Wiped everything reinstalled backups doesn't seem to matter. Any suggestions.

I hate to day it but sounds like you need to reformat the SD card.

I was thinking the same thing. I had been using bootmanager as you know runs different ROMS directly off the card. I can't say if that was the cause but everything is leading that way. For instance, everytime I may need to reboot the phone it automatically boots in bootmanager... long story.

I've heard people having lots of issues with bootmanager. It may be part of your problem as well.

Try the app Directory Bind. You'll find it on the forums.
I believe the latest Rom toolbox can do it. Apps2sd can't do it right now

what's the point of putting apps to sd card nowadays? this was only relevant during the G1 days.
i play a lot of games on my phone. gameloft especially have them big files that is needed to play.
And 16GB is not enough?

Yep. Really don't know why Samsung has done this. Directory Bind is a good workaround, though.
lol, i thought it would be too!
turns out its this lucky patcher i am using that is telling lies that i ran out of space.
Lucky patcher = always bad news
so don't ever use it anymore?
i noticed my phone is running on edge instead of a 3/4g data network. the only thing i ever did to my phone was root it, i didn't use any roms from here. i was able to put the original back thru odin, and my phone no longer says modified. but my data is still the same and my imei info is still gone.
anybody else experience this? oh and i did do a nandroid backup after i had rooted it. i restored it but it still wouldn't change my data or imei issue. i also checked my counter and it says custom binary (1 counts)...does that mean i am screwed? everything else in that line reads samsung or official tho. and at the very top is odin in red.

Look for "GL to SD" on the play store. It moves most of the content of gameloft games to SD.

I know coming from the bionic, they had multiple rom slots with TWRP. Will this ever be possible with this phone?
Thanks

never heard of it
It's basically partitions out the internal card into however many slots you want, max is 4 I think. It uses 2gb per slot. Then whenever you want, you can go into TWRP and switch between roms.

I've heard of it, as I had it on my razr hd. But I don't see why when you can just have backups its so easy and fast to just be swapping backups. That's normally what I would do when there is 2 roms that I like a lot.

I did, and it was great. Unfortunately it doesn't look like they support much in the way of Samsung devices at the moment. As of mid-November they were working on support for the GS3 but I don't know what's happened to that. Apparently Sammy's partition structures are annoying.
This just started happening to me this evening. I randomly get this message. .. Sdcard empty, unmounted, or not present. Never experienced an error like this in the past. I'm running Beans 7, sdswap, perseus kernel with 5g profile. Does anyone have a clue to this problem?

What class of sdcard do you have? Sdcard specs, please. Bet it's crap. Lol. Seriously. Not being a jerk. Troubleshooting.

Did you get it from Amazon? If so it probably is a bad card. I've seen quit a few people who got a bad batch from ordering on Amazon. Try what Wolf said, backup and format

Tried that. Several times. Been having similar problems with my sd card. Its a samsung 64gb class ten. I cant find any of my downloads. I am a noob but I think the sd swap does something to the card. Only causes a problem if you flash a new rom (or reflash same) that doesn't have swap.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Aren't you supposed to delete a few files when returning from a swap? Though I read that.

Well... After reformatting my scdard and also performing a fresh and clean install of my beans 7 rom, I'm still having the same problem once again.... I reformatted to extfat. Should I have went with fat?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
I slow reformatted mine and the error came up again after a few hours. Decided to just buy a new one so hopefully the card was just crapping out and not the phone. If end up posting again it must be the phone. Hope you don't hear from me again in this thread lol
Im having the same exact issue as you. Its very annoying

Sandisk 64GB SDXC which happens to be Made in China is crap and confirmed by comments made by others on Amazon saying the same. Pay a little extra for Samsung 64GB SDXC and have the peace of mind.
Same issue for me and I bought my sdcard from Best Buy also...I am running Jelly Bean ROM B7. The card is only 2 months old so I doubt the card went bad, this has to be some app/process that is effecting the sdcard swap program. Very annoying and reboot of phone resolves issue but I have to reboot every hr, it is unreasonable. It only started happening to me since B7 which i installed about 7 days ago. I may trying going back to B6 which i was using with no issues for a while.
I'm just waiting for my Sandisk 64gb ultra cl10 to die bought it about 3 weeks ago so will see glad it has a 10year/lifetime warranty. Plenty of people are having same problems with these cards and not just in phones. Easy way to tell if its bad/going bad is to format it and stick it in another device see whats up... pretty sure if your card is not mounting or being seen it's going bad if it pops back up from time to time it's about to be dead.
Well I finally returned the sdcard at Best Buy which honors manufacturer warranties. Been a week on the new card, so far so good...

Anyone else have the same problem? I need to encrypt my phone for work and I have my phone rooted on a stock rom. I've already tried 5 times and I still can't get it to work.

You tried to encrypt 5 times, failed 5 times, but never thought to unroot and see if this was the issue? I feel bad for your employer.
Sent from my SM-N900P using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I could be wrong but root shouldn't effect the encrypting process. I have encrypted rooted devices before. Some possibilities could be that the ROM for some reason wasn't coded right or the kernel wasn't. I do remember trying to root an encrypted device and it wouldn't. I hope someone here can shed some light on this for you.
Yeah I finally got it to work....don't know how though I just plugged it in and set to encrypt over night in the morning it was good to go
