Do you have any experience enabling Android sdcard encryption with multiuser enabled? I would assume it binds the pin code of the owner for purposes of encryption but I am not sure.

I am asking because I have attempted to encrypt my phone with multiuser and it fails (in a not so good way... i.e. format of data required). I was just curious if multiuser would have anything to do with that as I try and troubleshoot. I haven't tried doing it without multiuser yet. I may try to do a factory restore, set up an encrypted volume, and then Nandroid back to my current config and see what the heck that looks like.

Encrypted

Good question regarding encryption. I want to use a second user for work exchange and use encryption. Wondering if it is done globally or just for the single user profile.

Sorry for the delay!! Try flashing this mod based on your rom: Multi_p970_WizardRom_V3 and see if it works.

If the widgets are not correct sized you gonna have to decompile this mod and manually change values of this file: framework-res.apk\res\layout-port\keyguard_host_view.xml

at the second "<FrameLayout" there is this code:

androidprv:paddingTop="54.0dip"

As higher this number gets, the lower the clock widget gets

At bottom of the file, you'll find this:

androidprv:paddingTop="35.0dip"

As higher this number gets, the lower the unlock widget gets

I'm sorry, never used encryption with android before... can't help.

No problem. I hope to find some time to factory reset and try it soon. I will post the results here.

Hey OP!
Do you know how I can edit unlocker size to bigger..?

I tried flashing this on my US Cellular Galaxy S3 and it just put it into a boot loop >.< I'm gonna reflash CM10.1 and Gapps right now. I didn't realize that this is only for the International Galaxy S3. I was able to get Multi-user support working with some terminal commands, but it reset upon reboot.

Is there anything else I can try to make it persistent?

 

[rfmalta]

@Jeffreycat

Why don't you try creating your own multi-user.zip following the steps in OP?? It will be persistent and its much easier than running terminal commands!

Hey OP, I don't know what I do wrong when I try to make lock screen look correct on CM10.1 (Maguro) with multi user selector

First:
This:

    </com.android.internal.policy.impl.keyguard.SlidingChallengeLayout>

It works well but when I expand widget it doesn't show lock image on it, it shows the box which is gray instead of lock, also opening screen takes sometimes a bit time.

This one:

It makes lockscreen stuff much smaller and it doesn't show the PIN code thing correctly, it doesn't fit it, but it shows the lock icon..

Do you know what I have done so wrong with those?
Are you able to fix it, I'm not able to fix it... :/

Thanks!

I tried this method with the CM10.1 Nightlies for the Motrola Xoom. Although it seems to work, everything FCs for the second user. Creating a third user didn't help either (neither a fourth). The ROMs keyguard_host_view.xml looked a bit different than the one in your OP. Could it be I changed it wrong?
Pastebin of my edited keyguard_host_view.xml: http://pastebin.com/dqYDrZVR

 

[FAtfcK]

Hey my friend followed the guide and made the multiuser possible on the wfs but he's experiencing the force close on the dialer, ringtones and themes. The solution on the OP is not working too :/ is there any way I can make it work? Thanks in advance

Kinda need help with mine, I'm on CM10.1 5/18 Nightly On My Droid 4 (Maserati) .

Here's my Framework-res Flashable if anyone can help me https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwM2zCxNnCZnRnlDNkhZcVo0bHM/edit?usp=sharing . Thanks

 

[swiggs98]

Yes... themes cause FCs on secondary users... great to know it worked for you

As of the last cm10.1 nightly or so, the user theme issue is supposedly resolved. I loaded the 6-15 nightly and it worked with themes enabled where it wouldn't before. Don't have a lot of run time under my belt yet, but this is very encouraging.
