Cannot root encrypted tab

---

Must wipe tab in setting and start from scratch for root to work. . . Not sure what will happen if I encrypt now that's it rooted. . .

Interesting, but makes sense I guess...

I will confirm that I rooted, fixed wpa_supplicant, THEN encrypted and all is well.

Thanks.
Please clarify though u are confirming that root then crypto works or you are about to confirm?
Whats the story on wpa? I am having occasional wifi dropouts

i was trying to root it from yesterday but when i saw your post.. i tried it.. i wiped it and it worked fine..

Yeap works here also
Only problem you cannot use pattern to unlock encryption, nor can you re enable it for lockscreen bummee.
Also the encryption password can on be 16 characters or less and can be changed on the fly, so I really wonder how strong the encryotion is.

I rooted my A500 using the modified ginerbreak apk whilst it was still encrypted and haven't had any problems other than the first reboot after rooting took a very long time compared to normal

I was saying it worked beautifully for me. I am rooted then encrypted with no complications.

No wifi issues here, even before I replaced wpa_supplicant. It holds solid to both my home wireless and my cellphone ad-hoc with no trouble.

If you have an older access point, it may be time to upgrade. I was forced to upgrade when I got a Wii - it's wireless would constantly cause my access point to reboot. Most consumer grade access points / routers are crap. I replaced mine with a DWL-3200AP. Doesn't have that fancy "n" stuff, but really, when your Internet is less than 1/4 the speed of your wireless network, does it really matter? Just an opinion, I know it matters to some people moving large files locally.

Hi guy. I updated the kernel from the forum here, next encrypted and now:
- root apk doesn't work (it hangs up)
- I loose language and time settings at every reboot
Any suggestion?
Thanks
