Anyone have any thoughts on how to make encryption do what it should, or a way around it for Exchange accounts?

I'm trying to set up an Exchange email account on my phone which requires, amongst other things, device encryption (on supported devices). I've got a Desire HD, which until recently was running Android 2.3 (which doesn't support encryption), and I wasn't having any problems. Last week I upgraded to Jelly Bean, and it won't let me use it without encrypting the phone. Trouble is, it won't encrypt - when I click the encrypt button it just sits there with a picture of an android indefinitely - not doing anything. I've tried this with and without SD card in place.
This is a bit of a pain, so really just wondering if anyone knows how to either make it work without encryption, or how to make encryption work!

Cheers
 
Hmm :(
Hoped it would be easier than that. Ah well. Work won't give me a phone unfortunately but I guess I can use the web app.
I was after the convenience but this plus a performance hit for running encryption doesn't sound worth it..

Thanks for the help :)
