Hi

You cant change phpmyadmin password, because it not have any password, so, you need reset mysql root password, but if you do it you need modify vesta config files with new password, take advice than easy password for root user is very high security issue

I not recommend you manage databases with root user, you need do it in vestacp, in any case the better way to handle this is create new user with privileges to manage databases and leave root as it for security reason
