Progress on Encryption with Waydroid
-
Hello there!
As many of you might know, 24.04-1.0 on the Fairphone 4 launched with filesystem encryption that conflicted with Waydroid. In the meantime I've successfully been able to bring fscrypt policy v2 support to the Fairphone 4 kernel, meaning that this issue will soon be a thing of the past.
I announce this here to educate people who already encrypted their devices. Phones with v1 policies will have to be wiped (or reset back to normal via some advanced Terminal/adb/ssh trickery) because only one type of policy version can be supported at a time.
Should you be interested in encryption while being able to use Waydroid, then wait for a while. I will push the changes once I feel comfortable I am not badly surprising users who didn't get the memo yet.
