Browse source 
Add commas where (seemingly) appropriate, for better flow
Specify andOTP (or the appropriate subject) in some cases instead of "the" or "it"
Use the term "hardware-based encryption" instead of "hardware cryptography"

<string name="intro_slide2_desc_password">This method will encrypt your data with a key
generated from a password or PIN. The main advantage here is that this will work with
external backup solutions (like Titanium) and is much less failure-prone than the KeyStore.
