This is intended to disable forced encryption on the nexus 6. You can still encrypt the device after doing this, but it won't be automatically done.After observing how this force encryption stuff works, I got it mostly figured out. (It's entirely a SW layer, as is already widely known). Basically when all the devices from fstab are mounted in android with the forceencrypt option, fs_mgr sets a flag for encryption (something like IF This_Device_Isnt_Encrypted; then This_Device_Needs_Encryption). on devices (looks like android only allows you to encrypt 1 device, which is probably to prevent such cases as over-resource usage ,maybe some other conflict that it doesn't support over 1 device, idk) that have forceencrypt set on them, if it can't unmount the device before doing these encryption checks - in other words if it's usy (like a file is open) - it just skips encryption all together. So if the device had a file preventing it from being unmounted, it just says "oh well, skip encryption." I found this kinda odd behavior anyway :PYou can still encrypt the device, it just isn't forced. Some people are complaining about the slowness of the encryption SW-layer (why force SW encryption? At least put some HW for it in the device). This makes it the way it probably should be - optional.Stock LMY47D/LMY47E/LMY47M/LMY47I (5.1.0) - No force encrypt:Stock LRX22C (5.0.1) - No force encrypt:Stock LRX21O (5.0) - No force encrypt:- You should be running the same build as the kernel you install (E.G. if you are running 5.1.0 LMY47D you should install the LM47D no force encrypt kernel)- Your bootloader must be unlocked (1.) Reboot to boot loader2.) Download the appropriate boot.img above3.) Install it via fastboot (1.) Reboot to boot loader2.) Format userdata () -
