Hey,
first of all my goal:
I'm on stock 4.2.1 with my Galaxy Nexus. I want to be able to toggle airplanemode either via notification center or nfc, or any other app like Tasker.
My question is:
Currently my phone is rooted and I installed different Apps like NFC Tasker, Tasker etc. I made some of this app to a system App --> moving to /system/app/ an granted them root access.
What happens to this Apps if I unroot / unlock my phone again.
Do they keep their root access, because they are at the Systemapp folder?
If not what options do I have? I don't want to keep my Phone rooted. I found a APP namped helper it is used by "Security Settings" to e.g. toogle airplane. Is that an option?
Thanks a lot
I have tried to root then unroot my gingerbread device after moving some apps to system, everything seemed fine.
Good luck !

Hey,
thanks for reply.. root and unroot I tried so far by my self look like it keeps the rights..
But what if I do a Backup and lock my Phone again. Will the Selfmade SystemApps out of the Restore work again?
Solved..

ok I did a lock again and everything is like it should be.. I thought if do a lock again my data will be wiped again.. Dosen't look like..
Just wondering if anyone has attempted this and how well it worked? Given the root situation and requirement to unlock the bootloader (and lose picture quality) I was looking for an alternative to TB. Any luck with this? I just ask because it notes some Sony phones may have issues.

I have just tested it with a few apps, but everything works great. It also restores the App-Data.
You have the opinion to backup the whole app or just the data. If you just backup the data you have to download the app first from the Playstore.
Some apps are not allowed to backup, I dont know why.
I made the backups with my old Z1compact.

Thanks for confirming. I backed up my apps with my old phone but it doesnt detect on the z3 compact after copying to internal storage. I read a workaround is to first install and back up what I want to restore data for, then use it to restore. Hope that does it.
I'm currently backing up to Google Drive with Helium. Haven't tried restoring anything yet.

I wasn't able to set up helium, inspite of buying the app to use the google drive/cloud option, it still asks me to connect to the desktop, which I'm not able to (camera ptp mode is not working)
Any ideas on skipping it from asking to connect to desktop?

Well, you have to connect to desktop to make it work. The PTP didn't work on my Z3C either, it keeps reverting. Just keep at it and eventually it will work briefly enough to connect to Helium.

Have you tried to install the Sony PC Software (the latest version). After installing this + the latest drivers everything worked for me. Perfectly restored all apps except those which do not allow backup.

I had this problem.
In usb setting there is only MTp and direct transfer, no PTP mode.
I'll try again later. and see if I can google a solution
I would like to confirm that i used helium to back up and restore apps and their data. The only flow like mentioned earlier is that it doesn;t back up all apps for some reason..
Also, i backed up on the internal memory and restored it. I used windows 7. I am having an issue with windows 8 and helium desktop app.
Got it working as well, with the workaround above. It is rather buggy, but for certain apps where I wanted to keep my data I will have to make do. I do miss Titanium Backup, that is for sure.
Now the only issues I need to attempt to resolve, which I likely will not be able to without root, are:
- force Desktop User Agent in Chrome for all sites.
- enable writing to SD Card - all SD Card Fix apps require root
Other than that I can do without root so far.

Yes, i have installed the latest version of the PC companion(v2.1), However after connecting the Z3 compact, it shows the device as Sony Xperia smartphone instead of Z3 compact. I have a Xperia P and it shows the device as Xperia P. So, something is must be missing.

Yes, this method worked, but its more of a workaround. The whole point of buying the premium was to use the cloud feature and not to depend on the desktop. i tried to bypass the the screen where it asks for connecting to the desktop but it exits on pressing cancel. My Xperia P is rooted, so i don't have that startup screen where it asks me to connect to the desktop. Also Helium isn't able to backup many apps, it has it's flaws, but it works on a non-rooted device, which was very helpful.
Also, was anyone able to install the drivers from http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/drivers/xperia-z3-compact-driver/
I wasn't able to install them.

You only have to connect to the desktop that first time. After that you can use the cloud.

I used Helium to backup my rooted Galaxy Nexus.
At first I just backed up AppData, but was frustrated trying to find the apps in the Play market to match the app data. I restored it again with the app+data backed up.
I was using the unpaid version of Helium and Windows 8.1 and uploaded the archive to my computer via the Helium Server on my phone. Installed Helium on the z3c and restored apps/data mostly fine.
I had Waze FC on me and had to uninstall and re-install. Other apps that required login info needed to be re-signed into otherwise it mostly worked?
Just registered here to tell that I also failed to set the PTP mode on two different Windows 7 computers. Then I tried on my Macbook and it worked! No PTP mode was required.
If you can get your hands on a mac, try that.

Hi everyone,
I have been looking at this forum for sometime without signing up amazing developers and ideas here.
I just have a quick question I am a data privacy freek and I basically have an android tablet that I want to wipe it clean completely so it won't even turn on just to nothing.
Then I want to install a fresh version of android again.
If you know of any guides that will help me out please post them so I don't take up much of your time. Even if someone could just write me a small tutorial?
It will be much appreciated,
Kind regards,

Hi there,
Well I won't back up from a challenge,
anyways there is a way but it requires alot of steps
doing a full system erase wont delete the apps however you can root the tablet so you can remove the app permanently. The apps you talk about are system apps which are impossible to remove without rooting your tablet. If your okay with ANDROID ROOTING HERE ARE THE STEPS;
1. SINCE YOU'RE USING AN UNKNOWN BRAND YOU CAN ROOT YOUR TABLET VIA KINGO ROOT
HERE IS THE LINK: https://www.kingoapp.com/
2. REMEMBER TO TURN OFF FIREWALL AND ANTIVIRUS
3. AFTER DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING FOLLOW THE ON SCREEN INSTRUCTIONS.
4. AFTER SUCCESSFULLY ROOTING YOUR DEVICE YOU MAY PROCEED TO GOOGLE PLAY AND DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL TITANIUM BACKUP AND RESTORE
5. AFTER INSTALLING THAT OPEN THE APP
6. OR IF YOU WANT YOU CAN INSTALL ANY SYSTEM APP REMOVER APP FROM GOOGLE PLAY ITSELF
7. BUT I RECOMMEND THE TITANIUM IT HAS MORE FEATURES AND MAYBE IT MIGHT BE HARD FOR YOU BUT STILL TRY THE APP OUT
THERE YOU GO ALL THE UNWANTED APPS ARE GONE NOW HOWEVER IF YOU USED TITANIUM APP THERE IS AN OPTION TO REMOVE THE APP PERMANENTLY SO WHEN YOU ERASE THE TABLET NEXT TIME THE UNWANTED APPS WON'T BE THERE

you can try kingo root but I have to warn you that you verify that the website you download from is legit and not a a phishing website Lord of the root apk is not infact root apk but malware.
if you are on anything which is Android 6 plus chances that this APK will not root your phone because of security enhancements in that case your only choice is to to find a TWRP recovery for your phone Google TWRP and your phone name number follow instructions to flash it most of the time putting your phone in fastboot and flashing the image does the job and after that you can install magisk which will root your phone .With the option magisk hide enable you can fool other apps that your phone is not rooted or you can disable the superuser or root completely within magisk manager and use as non rooted phone.

When you plug the phone / tablet to a computer you need to pull down from the top and look for Android System and something to do with USB / click this and choose Media Device or file transfer the PC should reconnect and make a sound. Now you should see all the folders in Internal storage and External storage (if you have a sdcard in the device)
make a folder on your pc and copy everything from the device to your pc
I personally use Google photos to keep those backed up and available on all my devices
Amazon Photos works just as well or you can even use both

Yeah I'll be using Google Photos from now on, it's just a bummer since I lost some pics I really cared about
Anyway, I've tried to copy, but I get an Unspecified Error
I don't understand
Edit: Ok, apparently the only folders I cannot copy are the Whatsapp and Android folders. I think I can just ignore them, since all the cached pics I want to recover are stored in the CloudDrive folder.
So, back to the root.
Is Kingo REALLY that malicious? I don't wanna risk any permanent damage on my phone (Android version 5.1)
And about TWRP: I got the app installed, but my device (CUN-L01) is not listed
kingo is not open source and when it and roots your phone it install some other bloatware app as well .As long as it's capable of rooting your phone go ahead and use it but make sure you to get rid of it after the diskdigger work is over
so yes something you may want to try
backup all your data photos call logs SMS etc , install kingo root app and get root { , if you want to keep permanent root then and at this stage you can download and install TWRP directly as a rooted user without going through the long drawn procedure of fast booting & once you have TWRP installed then replace your kingo app with your favourite root app and throw out kingo }
, do your diskdigger work and then un install kingo root app
there is a desktop and Android version both . the desktop version is supposed to be more powerful make sure you uninstall all the apps once your job is over also make sure that you are downloading the correct kingoapp because there are some of other 'viral' versions , that may install undesirable bloatware but will not roat
diskdigger alternative is phone paw you may want to try that as well I don't think that needs root it's PC based photo recovery software

If you put it that way, Kingo looks less meancing.
I'm not interested in a constantly rooted phone, just need it temporarily, so...
Sorry if I ask, but any of you have a reliable download link for Kingo? I really have no idea where should I look for a "safe" version.
Also, what do you mean by "make sure you uninstall all the apps once your job is over" ? Uninstalling Kingo is not enough?
there is a king root and there is the kingo root and I have not used both this crapwares for quite a long time I used them when I was on 4.x and rather new to this Android cynogen factory. At that time TWRP was a bit new and not every phone had a TWRP.
so I think I probably referred to kingroot and not kingo root
https://kingrootapp.net/
don't recollect but either or both of these apps also install some other bloatware apps that pretended to save your battery and show you how faster phone is charging ...whatever
uninstall all the apps that were installed after your 'root work' is over

That's a good start :good:
Ok so, I'm not downloading anything from that link
Also, I keep reading awful things about this root method. Like it sends your email to some shady companies and such. I'm not even sure it will work with my phone, it may brick it.
So, I'll stick with TWRP

First step unlock the bootload, on Huawei It's a pay service, check eBay or
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-read-huawei-bootloader-unlock-code
Second step you need a patched boot.img made with magisk. Most times you can get the stock boot.img from an OTA update.zip
Copy it to the phone and use magisk manager to install (patch) the stock file.
Now you copy the patched file to your PC fastboot folder.
Third and last step is to fastboot flash the patched boot img
The command is
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
Reboot and you have a rooted device

Here is how to do it
First things first, never use one click root apps! they install spyware and stuff, and they achieve root access in your phone by using vulnerabilities. The proper way to root it is the one by which you unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery like twrp, I found a post here https://techelucid.com/root-huawei-y5-ii/ ,follow it and try to use magisk instead of supersu, its more updated and can hide your root access, you can use supersu it work too but some apps won't work with root access enabled, magisk can hide this. Both can give you root access

well it sounded like this person just wanted a one shot one time root and out method which is why I suggested King root if it works. afterwards all that crapwhere can be deleted.
the other option was also mentioned that is TWRP and magisk .bootloader unlocking need not always be paid service lot of things allowed here on how to unlock bootloader but first we have to make sure if his bootloader is locked or unlocked.
turn on developer settings and oem unlock switch if that is present that mean the bootloader is unlocked and in fact this step of buying a service to unlock bootloader is redundant
I was trying to keep the thread as simple as possible without going into the depth of all the under the hood methods but sound like after all ,all the mechanics have opened up the hood and now we are getting to the engine
whatever works .....it sounds like he's getting good help so wish him good luck

Hello, did you find a way to recover this files with DiskDigger, im exactly on your same problem...
Please if you can help i will really appreciate.
my phone has been doing weird stuff lately like apps that i specificaly turned off will now turn on by themselves, my battery drains faster too, getting more calls from a "private number".
i updated my phone to the latest update and it runs android 9 pie.
all apps are up to date aswell. i check that often.
i scanned with malwarebytes but it found nothing suspicious.
bootloader is locked aswell. not rooted.
any ideas about what might be happening or how to fix this?
thanks in advance.
If you turn off an user-app it only gets stopped for the time you have Android actually running. When you restart Android then it's brought back to life again.

I have this phone for like 2 years now, those apps that i disabled have remained disabled for 2 years now even when i restart phone or shutdown and boot up again. now suddenly 3 of them enable themselves while i am not doing anything.
1: Youtube app
2: Google News app
3: Google Photo app.
These apps were disabled for at least 2 years. i have no clue how they can re-enabled themselves without me pushing the enable button.

no need, i am glad you tried to help. maybe it sounds a bit dull but it has been like this for a whole week now where i have to make sure i dont update these apps and disable them first before using google play to update all apps.
i changed launcher now to Evie launcher. maybe that work since these apps dont enable themselves for a full day now.
seems like its still going even after launcher change. its only those 3 apps that were disabled and now get enabled automatically.
Why not simply uninstall the apps in question?

those are system apps and i dont have root since the bootloader is locked. so i cant freeze/uninstal them.

You can disable them with adb commands. It effectively hides them. When done right the system no longer sees them as installed or running and they dont get updates from the play store anymore. Should sort out your problem with them re-enabling automatically. Not sure if you have done this already,but if not,give it a try.

Oke i have not tried it via adb, what i recently tried tho was unlocking my bootloader, but in adb my phone was only detected in normal usage mode where all the apps are, but in downloadmode it disapeared, even with the right driver installed.
So i have to run a few codes via adb when my phone is turned on with all the apps visible?

Yes,connect your phone powered up to your usb port of your laptop or p.c. and open adb command. Then run the command adb devices to make sure adb picks up your phone. If it does,you are good to go. Do you know how which command lines to run etc to uninstall apps in adb?

Yes,there are posts all over XDA about it and you can also search the internet. Just type in how to uninstall bloatware without ro6t with adb command

Bloatware is stored in Android OS partitions /system and/or /system-priv. Hence one needs ROOT privileges to remove it.

Yes,to remove the app and its files entirely root is needed. If you bothered to read the post,he is battling to keep the apps disabled. And by disabling them with adb the way i suggested,it should fix the problem for him.

FYI: I simply refered to your post

You should get the context of the message before leaving a remark like that dont you think? I certainly do,it implies that i am giving mis-information and dont know what i am talking about. I dont appreciate it and i can and will stand up for myself as both a woman and a person.
