I am a developer of Neo Backup, which has SMS/MMS backup. I designed it to call the android.provider.Telephony.Sms and android.provider.Telephony.Mms to read and write the SMS/MMS data. They are getting an error when they try to restore. The message is "Can't downgrade database from version 68 to 67". Because I do not have a device to test this app with this ROM I cannot test and fix this. Do the developers of this ROM have any idea what this error is about and why it is different on this AOSP R...

Jean DO NOT reinstall Windows in BIOS/MBR setup. You need to keep the drive in GPT. It is best this way. Secure boot requires UEFI booting, which requires the drive to be in GPT. Secure boot verifies boot elements to make sure no virus/malware has injected code to completely compromise your system. You can encrypt each partition seperately. Your drive is in GPT format, and this is necessary for Windows 10 to boot with secure boot, there is a partition, called the EFI partition, which is around 128-512...

Whole drive encription (I am assuming this is every part of the drive, except the MBR, encrypted.) isn't needed. With UEFI you just encrypt each partition separately, except the EFI and any recovery partitions. Nothing is inherently insecure with partition by partition encryption. It will be the way to encrypt UEFI systems going forward, unless something changes. It is the way my two machines running with VeraCrypt are set up. The system does not store any data outside of the partitions you are encrypting....

This isn't true. GPT isn't just an enterprise thing anymore. Any computer that ships with Windows 10 installed is running what is called UEFI instead of BIOS. UEFI can boot legacy BIOS mode, but to sell the machine with Windows 10 they are required to boot UEFI mode. UEFI mode cannot boot from MBR. It requires GPT. So, all newer machines that come with Windows 10 pre-installed (also ones that came with Windows 8/8.1) have the primary drive in GPT format. VeraCrypt can encrypt GPT format drives, and...

I am on straight up 1.23 and it is like this for me. It has been since 1.18 I think.

I am still on 1.23 and this is there. It isn't something new. I am glad I could help.
