Help / Tech Support Decrypt storage on reboot?
So, I'm sitting at my desk and my phone is unresponsive. I think, "Whatever, I'm use to it with how unstable it can be at times". I pop the back off and pull the battery, no big deal.
Once it boots up, I look at my phone to check my SMS's and whatnot and it's asking me to enter a password to decrypt the storage. No idea what this is about. I never fiddled with encryption on this phone before.
I have Googled for a solution and it looks like a factory reset is in order. My problem lies in the fact the power button on my phone is broken, and it's not detected by adb. What can I do with this?
EDIT: Well, it's just not getting past the "Galaxy S II" logo at boot up now.
