[Q] problem with VPN setting lock password for credential storage in setting menu

Hello to all...
I hope the thread is well written.
GT-I9300
Android MC3 4.1.2
JKAY MOD
PHILZ TOUCH CWM
themed with Dream Themes by orangerot
all the rest is stock
what is going wrong:
1. I set up VPN connection with lock screen pin
2. all right for the last 2 days
3. now I want to configure a new VPN
4. I want to enter VPN settings (in settings "More Settings" in "wireless and network"
5. it's not possible, it's asking a password for credential storage...
6. i know the PIN I have entered to unlock the lock screen
7. after trying 3 times with false password it want to reset/erase the credential storage
8. I restarted phone and after, no pin is needed anymore... I'm really confused...
credential storage -> (what is this?) (is this a problem if it will be erased?)
Someone knows how to solve without a hard reset?
I'm searching in web and XDA but I can't find a solution...
I've solved.
Was very simple - found the solution on a German Forum.
Simply reset credential storage.
Just in case anyone else reads your thread with the same question. You are talking about clear credentials under security right?
yes or insert 4 times the wrong password in vpn settings, it doesn't give any problems.
after this you have to restart with vpn settings, because all vpn connections are lost and you have to give a new pin/password for access/activation to the credential storage.

Disable the screen lock security - from pattern, pin or whatever go to none.
Now you will have no VPNs or another things which might demand security, but you are able to setup them again.
Guys need help . I have note 3 neo and when I open "vpn" it shows "enter creditional storage password " how to solve that.?

Like pin, pattern, password but not swipe, that's it.

[Q] What password phrase is used for decryption in Android?

Hi,
I just bought Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and want to setup it like my old Galaxy Nexus. Also I want to stay with fully stock ROM for a while so I need to perform everything without root.
I need encryption set on my phone. Problem was that for some reason Samsung ROM does not allow PIN unlock on encrypted device. Password wasn't convenient so I searched for workaround for this.
Solution was to install Tasker+Secure Settings and change lock type to PIN just once. Everything was perfect, PIN lock was set permanently. BUT, when I rebooted the phone I wasn't able to decrypt storage with old password. My device can be only decrypted with new PIN now.
How the hell that could be? I believed that when I set encryption password it will be used for decryption. Obviously for me now, it's not.
My question is: what encryption key is used for data decryption in Android? You can change password or PIN and decrypt device with it easily. In other words: what data (encryption key) should be hacked in order to decrypt the phone and where is it?

Miui 7 forces to login on first start (without internet connection)

My new xiaomi redmi note 2 forces to sign in to an account on first start, skipping this dialog is not possible. On the display there is displayed:
Thank you!
Thank you for helping make MIUI better!
I can type an Username (number-keyboard) and a Password. There is one Button to validate. Does anybody know how to skip this or which account is required to login (and how a login works since my sim card is locked and wifi is not enabled)?
Thank you
tau.gi.mo
Sorry, can anybody move it to MIUI discussion?
did you deleted "Updater.apk" maybe?
flash latest miui, maybe its bloatrom from the shop you bought it

yes, I deleted the updater.apk.
I still can use Mipad 2 because of the setting menu and using my own launcher. haven't tested the system launcher.
Anyway, how do I get rid of this welcome/thanks page/windows when starting device?? I have root so I could butcher some moe system apk's if I have to do it... Do you know the answer?
Luckily I had backup and it is working now. Just fix permission also to wrx-rx-rx
I'm a new MIUI user, and I just encountered this screen after my first OTA update ever. I use a MIUI 8 Global Developer ROM on a Xiaomi Mi 5 (with Unlocked Bootloader).
One way I found to avoid this screen, is by removing the SIM card and rebooting. I re-insert the SIM after MIUI has booted properly.
I don't think that's very good for the phone (or the SIM). That's just a temporary solution, until I manage to figure out what's going on...
if have root n twrp then
from twrp recovery>mount>system..then advanced>file manager>system>priv-app>miuikeyguard.apk>delete.. it worked for me.
i also removed provision.apk from the same folder.. so no startup screens.. directly takes u to the launcher

samsung s4 - unlock encryption

Hi all,
I just tryed to add a company account to my phone. During this process I was asked to add a new Administrator. Just after confirm, the phone unmonted the SD card and wanted to encrypt the phone. How to reverse?
The phone is still not encrypted and I don't want the encryption. But I cannot mount my SD card without encryption and I cannot change any security setting (only password is available as lock screen - till now I have a PIN). And, I cannot clear the certificate memory (Clear credentials is grayed).
I removed the exchange account, but this does not help.
I'm using a stock GT-I9506 with 5.0.1
Thanks for any help.
solved
I fount the solution. After selecting password as lock screen I started the encryption. During the last confirmation I aborted. After that all was like before.
