I installed FoxFi and PDANet on my S5. The process required me to use a PIN or password instead of a pattern for the screen lock. For now, I can live without PDANet/FoxFi. I tried to back them out but I'm still stuck with using a PIN or password for the screen lock. The message for anything else is "Turned off by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage." I cleared the FoxFi certificate - no change. I wrote JuneFabrics about this. No reply. No storage is encrypted. I didn't intentionally change anything as sysadmin. That leaves either the FoxFi certificate (now gone) or...???

How do I undo this curse on my phone???

FWIW, the phone is rooted (bless you, geohot!).
