Will these phones ever support SD Card encryption?
I have read where the Ent version has bitlocker and other encryption features.
Any ideas?

I have a SGH-T999 with Android 4.0.4 which I'm trying to encrypt the SD card of under Settings->Security->Encrypt SD Card.
Under Encryption settings I can select any combination of settings and choose continue after which I am prompted to confirm my password.
However next I get a screen similar to the following:
---
Disable SD card encryption?
ø Device will not encrypt new files on SD card
ø Device will decrypt encrypted SD card
ø Decryption may take along time depending on the amount of data. It is recommended that you plug device into charger
ø All open files on SD card will be closed
ø During this process, SD card will not be available
[ Apply ]

Any ideas what's going on? I was able to encrypt the device without issue...
Under Settings > General > Security
I have some questions regarding the encryption
If I encrypt my SD card:
Will new files I transfer from my phone storage to the SD card be encrypted automatically? Or will I have to re-encrypt the entire SD card
How do I de-encrypt the SD card? Can it only be done with the specific phone that I used to encrypt it? Meaning if I encrypt my sd card, and my phone breaks in the futute, I'll never be able to de-encrypt it?
Can I access files on the encrypted card using a file explorer? If so, do I have to enter a password every time I want to look at a file?
That is all. Thanks you in advance.
Cannot find an option to encrypt SD card.
Only option I've found is Encrypt phone. If it means that SD card would be encrypted as well, why Decrypt SD card option is missing then?

I am trying to understand how each app and appdata is encrypted for apps installed on SD card.

How some appdata from SD card can be recovered?
Looking for technical details. Is there any book on this subject?
