Hello guys
My phone is Huawei Ascend G525 with Android 4.1.2
I have two questions I hope you answer it honestly:
1- If it's safe to use my phone for surfing the web everyday? I've installed an Antivirus called 360 SECURITY. Is it necessary to have it in the phone?
2- Is there any possibility of bricking device while I've turned off the UNKNOWN SOURCES and also installing apps from GOOGLE PLAY?
Please guide me.
Note that my device is non-rooted and I won't root it.
thanks.
it's safe to browse the web. just be cautious on what you're clicking. same for the play store. theres no way to brick your device from the play store but that doesn't discount malware-infused apps.
what are you afraid of doing to your phone? if you don't root, you could always just factory reset and your phone will be fixed (more or less)

Hello all,
I've searched the web and have only found solutions involving rooting and something called Cyanogenmod. Looks tricky. I'm fairly tech savvy and not totally opposed to doing this stuff, but I'd really really REALLY rather do this only as a final final last desperate resort. My only goal is simply to have Google Play up and running on my Android without rooting and putting on all sorts of fancy mods. Besides, I'm not even sure if there's a Cyanogenmod for my device. I looked and it's not in the list.
I recently got a Coby Kyros MID1042, Android 4.0 tablet. It doesn't come with Google Apps. I want to install Google Apps. I have tried doing this by using the APKs and installing manually. I found instructions on Youtube and downloaded some signed apks with Vending 3.3.12.
Things seemed to be fine until I clicked on Google Play in my apps tab, I was prompted to enter my Gmail account info, so I did. I got the message "Your phone needs to communicate with Google Servers to set up your account...", but after a few minutes, I got a message that says, "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server", followed by "Unforunately, Google ServicesFramework has stopped."
I have searched this and other forums and have come up with solutions that seem to involve something called "rooting", resetting and installing some MODs... I'd rather use rooting or modding as an absolute last resort. I'm wondering if there's any insight as to why I'm getting these messages, or if someone may be able to point me to a better .apk package. Thanks in advance!
search in the internet for a pakage called "gapps" (be sure u chose the right one cus theyre depending on the android version u use)
head to the recovery mode and flash them afterwards it should work
you dont need any root acces for this cus every phone got a recovery by stock rom
i have some hidden photos in my SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 PLUS ...
since updating my cell phone to 4.2.2. i cant locate them anywhere in my cell phone .
please any suggestions in this regard ...
Try Recuva (Google it), or any of the recovery apps on Google Play. But be warned, there's a fair chance you may not be able to recover them. Backups are your friend.
Did you use a specific app to hide them?

I have no idea how a virus found its way inside of my Archos 55 platinum phone, i searched online and saw that many people had the same virus as me on the same phone model and now i want to install a costum Rom on my phone and make it clean and i cannot find it as the archos guys wont release one
about the virus:
*It automatically installs google play apps on my phone and launches them.
*it has been appended to the android settings app so i could not delete it with malwarebytes
*I have tried factory reset but it wont be removed
*I have already rooted the phone in the hopes of removing it with root access but apparently nothing can remove the settings file
so i have turned up to you guys for advice on how to remove it (FYI: everything is on the table guys)
Sorry if i posted on the wrong forum or anything, i made an account solemnly for posting about this particular problem
If no one can help me removing it can someone please tell me what rom usually works with almost all android phones as i already said there is no rom available for my phone model
I have accidentally reset my phone last day. My kid's pics were almost in it.
My primary need is to retrieve them from the phone's disc. Is there any kind of way other than specialised apps. When i tried easeus , it says i should root my phone first. How could i do for the A3 with spec attached
Try rooting with one click root apps like kingroot or kingoroot.
Rooting through flashing magisk or alike would require you unlocking the bootloader, which will delete all data on your phone and there's no recovery from that.
Try using dr.fone or other third party apps don't just use one app.
Maybe an authorized service center can help.
Other than that there's no recovery for the lost data. If you had sync on and google photos pre-reset then you may find the photos in google photos.
Hope I helped.
