How to completely remove everything from android tablet - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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,
David

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

Hi there,
Well it's better not to as it is impossible to find the ROM which was used on that tablet as it is Chinese. However you can use the above method to delete all the apps if you want, BUT BE WARNED DELETING EVERY SINGLE APP OF THAT TABLET CAN RESULT IN DAMAGING THE SOFTWARE THUS UNABLING IT TOO BOOT IT PROPERLY

Hi there,

Fail Android Recovery causes Android Market Bug?

Hello.
I have XXJL2 December soft and my Movinand Android got Market Bug (i can't download apps). When I installed my port, Android Recovery was getting this messages:
http://i51.tinypic.com/2wnzk87.jpg
http://i55.tinypic.com/swv091.jpg
Maybe this bugs causes my Android Market bug?
Please reply what You guys think.
Cheers.
It always looked/looks like this, this is not the cause for Android Market bug. You have too less internal space, that's the problem.
I can't even download 1 app (~1mb) from market, so i dont think my problem is internal memory. Any other ideas?
Try to reinstall it?
First remove android with the recovery mode, then install it again?
How to open recovery mode?
BTW it's my second Android on this phone and nothing changes (both movinand).

You don't need to remove it before re-install.
The remove code is also in the mkext2images.sh file.
(First it removes data & cache files if android already exists, and recreates new ones)
I'm totaly pissed. I've update Android Market from 2.1.2 to 2.2.7 and problem is the same...
Did you try to delete google services framwork's datas in the settings / app menu ?
I had the same problem before doing that.

Jesus. If you're a newbie don't even dare to edit this script.
Rulistaff meant that the script will erase previous version, and then install the new one.
BTW. This file can be easily edited even by notepad, but please, don't mess with it as long as you're not absolutelly sure what you're doing.
Excellently, I wanna repair my Android Market and get solution for this problem (many others people have this issue).

[Q] Total reset - LG Optimos L7

Hi there everyone I have a few questions on Android because I want to do a "super cleaning" on my mobile.
I'm from Argentina and I have an LG Optimus L7 P705g , not sure how it's called elsewhere.
I have rooted my device about a month ago and downloaded Avast + installed Avast AntiTheft, only that when the installation finished I didn't said it was installed so idk what happened there.
I'm sorry for doing this, but I have plenty of questions so I'll put numbers :s
1) How can I be sure if the AntiTheft is installed or not?
2) When installing root apps and regular apps, how can you notice? I mean, can I install a root app and not be aware of it?
3) If i do a Hard reset the root apps stay on the phone? In that case which "Root uninstaller" would you recommend ?
4) Doing hard reset is bad for the device?
5) I rooted my phone with SuperSU by ChainFire, to start my mobile from 0 I have to go to the SuperSU app tap "unroot" and then do the hard reset?
All in all what I want to do is to have my device as new. Without any trace of all this time I've been using it.
YES I LOOKED UP FOR INFORMATION NOT ONLY HERE BUT IN OTHER SITES ALSO, AND NO, I DID NOT FIND AN ANSWER THAT DID SATISFY ME
Thank you very much! I'm sorry for making so many noob questions all together!

1) settings>applications>manage application
2) You'll install root apps on your own risk.So be aware of them.If superuser app prompts for permission when using that app then it is root app else normal app.simply you can deny superuser rights to that app by denying request by su app.in this case that app will act as normal app (and may be it will be force closed or malfunction)
3) Nope.Hard-reset will clear all apps (except those who came with ROM and those which are sit on /system.this apps can be uninstalled using titanium backup (which i prefer) or other same apps)
4) Hard-reset will only clear user data which would not damage your device...
5) Not necessary.it'll stay as it is as it is installed in /system as ROM app...
If you want your device as same as that came from LG,then you'll need to flash stock ROM (afaik kdz file).but be carefull while flashing kdz file.Read all instructions before flashing it...
thank you very much for your patiance !
about (3) I read on the AvastAntiTheft that, as it was a rooted app, It wouldn't be affected if the thief did a Hard reset to the phone, so that is not true?

Possibilities to export all installed apps to a reinstallable “package” or something?

Hello, (if this thread fits somewhere else, then someone can move it :> )
I am reinstalling roms once in a month or so. It is always nice to test the phone with a lot of apps to see how the phone and the rom react and how much it can perform. But it is a bit horrible to reinstall all apps everytime i install a new rom. Is there a way to export all apps to a big package i can install again on a new installed rom?
Is there a way to export/package all apps installed on the phone to one packet or something? Instead of installing all apps in a horrible sequence from google play.

Why everyone are making new off-topic threads !!
We need a banner or something at the top to make it clearer that this is for Android Wear, not some general Android section.
The forum page defaults to newest devices (at least for me) and Android Wear is at the top, I think that's why random posts keep ending up in here.

Rooting and hacking

Hey there,
I have two new phones (Pixel & S7).
I'd like to root them. Found the guides for both but I'm not an expert and I'm way too busy these days to spend precious time on that.
Was thinking to look for someone that would do it for me, which I'm sure won't be an issue as there are several services around where I live.
I'm just worried that that person could be an asshole/pervert/too-bored and also install on my devices a tracking tool and they'd have remote access to my phones whenever they feel like it.
Is there a way to make sure there's no such tracking app on my phone after I receive the devices back or... it's too big of a risk and I should either find the time or give up on rooting?
Thanks,
Hmmmm....trying again.
Anyone?

Just take a note of all your apps names(eg: google.play.com) and then you can freely give him your device for rooting
After your device is rooted you can again check the app list for all the apps
If you find any app other than those you have noted(except the rooting app-supersu or kingroot etc.) No worries,you are already rooted just uninstall the suspicious app from your device

This can easily be hidden really. That is the risk you take when you let someone else mess with your device.
The only way would be to reflash a custom software for the device making sure to format all partitions and storage. Then you will be sure to be pretty safe.

So ask them just to root the devices, then format everything and reflash a ROM and I'm safe?

For the most part. Depending in the root method they use. Some shops use things like kingo root which is known to contain Malware.

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.

So there's no way at all to root without losing data, I get ya.

How do I backup all of my phone content? If I try to plug my phone to the PC i get the DCIM and Pictures folders, nothing else.

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

The link you sent me redirects me to a certain Aptoide app
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
Can someone guide me?

First step unlock the bootload, on Huawei It's a pay service, check eBay or

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

Can somebody help me out?
