Hello there. Recently, I somehow managed to shatter the glass on the front of my Lumia 900 screen. Not sure how that happened, but that's beside the point. What is the point the replacement modle has arrived. Yay, except for the fact I can't seem to get any of my data onto the new phone.
I have been using Windows Phone Easy Backup for all my back up related needs (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20052393&postcount=1). I tried making a back up and restoring the new phone, but that doesn't seem to work.
I've tried everything I can think of. The closest I've gotton to actually getting my data on the new modle was by backing up both phones, then copying the old phone's backup data file and replacing the new phone's back up data file.
Zune would being to restore my phone, but then suddenly stop and claim that it can't restore the phone because the OS versions are inncompatible (Even though they're both running the same OS versions).
I'm stuck, I've tried this plus so many other things, but I just can't get it done. Is there anyway into tricking Zune into letting use a backup from my old phone on my new phone? Please, while I am willing to do a screen transplant, I have a feeling the insurance company might have an issue with that...
I still have the old phone with the data intact. It still works fine, just somewhat unsafe to use because the glass is starting to chip and fall off. Still, I still have access to my old phone and its data incase that helps any. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, thanks!
Device backups are encrypted with per-device keys. Nobody has yet managed to extract this key, so you can't take a backup of device A and restore it to device B, even if they're exactly the same model.
Aside from your media (pictures, music, etc.), your documents (if they aren't too big to email), and the various items that are stored online (contact lists, email, purchase history), you can't currently back up and restore data from a Lumia 900. If we were able to root it, you could use tools like Windows Phone Device Manager to back up apps, and SMSBackup to do exactly what it sounds like, but both of those require more privileges than a standard developer unlock provides.
one of my most used apps is the Fuellog pro.
long story short, my xperia z`s screen cracked and rendered the phone useless. it turns on and everything, but i cannot interface with it due to the digitizer is broken..
the bad thing besides the phone going to **** is that I had some Fuellog data on it that i would love to get out or at least take a look at so i could transfer them to my new phone..
does anybody know where fuellog saves the data? i can connect the phone to my computer and access the filesystem, but i cannot find any obvious places where the fuellog data is located.. hoped i could just copy/paste the folder and export the data that way since i cant access it otherwise..
im open to any ideas, no matter how crazy...
tried to mail the dev twice, but no luck..
Hi friends,
Today I did a most unwise thing: I left my smartphone in a repair shop without wiping all my personal data off of it. Now I'm afraid I may have fallen victim of stolen personal data.
I know this was plain dumb. I now ask myself what sort of trace that may have left behind. Log files? Perhaps Android somehow has recorded all access there has been to my files? I'm guessing the phone was connected by USB to a PC. Even if there is no such thing - or in the event that the phone was subjected to the creation of a some sort image file containing all its contents - maybe I can even rely upon some forensic tools in order to find out what interaction there has been with my phone during the hours I left it at the shop?
Phone: Vodafone Smart Prime 6 (VF-895N).
Android 5.0.2 Lollipop
Many thanks for any tries on alleviating my pain.

Well, you can try reading some logs with CatLog app. There isn't much else to know except don't forget to wipe /data!
Hello friends and users of XDA forum. First I'm from Hong Kong and join XDA for more than 10 years, please accept my apprologize my poor english.
The story started from 6 years ago, during these days I changed over 20 phones. The first time I changed my mobile phone was image files and viedo files that I captured from IP cam some sensitive captures disappeared. Initially, I thought the problem of my LG-E988. So, I brought a new Phone LG-(forgot) DS. For the first few days. It looks perfectly fine, but the problems came back again. I beliveryed that it may caused by virus/malware/trojan, so I tried almost all different virus scanner avaliable, nothing was found. And sometimes I lost email, SMS message and GPS turned on by itself. I also saw the mobile screen changed itself, even took photos and videos. I told these to my family, because I have parkinson desease. So they believe I have organic psychosis and send me to hospital. Then I was trapped in hospital half a year because my wife lie and doctor did not believe what actually happened.
Over these 6 years, my computers all affected similar trojan (bootkit), It still there after fresh installed once infected. The mobile and computer can work offline, all photos and video files that copied in or out of computer / mobile will be damaged. These forum for mobile, so I concentrate on mobile trojan's issue, if you need solutions how I solve the problem, please feel free to ask.
I don't have much information about the trojan, but i have some clues can share.
(1) the trojan is not an apk nor zip package that installed by TWRP or any recovery.
(2) the trojan seems can be "inject" to any andriod systems and any brand, any model.
(3) the mobile seems must be opened physically. it must be injected into different partitions.
(4) Sometimes it works by root the mobile and install any ROM and the trojan will gone.
(5) I recently fixed a Samsung SM-A715F and I found an encrypted partition in adb shell.
(6) some files are set to some permissions even root can not copy, open, or chmod.
(7) the trojan will not infect other mobiles at same network or NFC, Bluetooth, Wifi.
(8) again, the trojan and see/listen using camera in realtime, see what you are doing, see your position, listen to background noise, the word you are typing or take full control of your phone, heat up your cpu and even turn your roaming on and transmit hundred of giga byte data.
I'm a programmer that I can write a little java program, root my mobile and install my favourite ROM, but not able to trace / detect / delete such trojan and where the data goes. Any expert can help me to doing that? It destory my family by capture something that my wife should not see. I still have a LG V20 and a honor 8A (JAT-L29) are infected. Please what to do next, or what you need.
Thanks for every one and sorry for my poor english.

It sounds to me that your computer is the main problem and I assume you connect the phone to it so the phone gets infected.
Regarding computer and virus the best thing to do is to format and reinstall the Operative System.
Regarding the phone, hard reset and no more problem.

Thanks for the reply. Nope, plug-in into a computer won't infect the phone, but if debug turn on, it might be ture. But I'm 100% sure hard / factory reset, wipe cache won't clean the trojan. I did it million times with no apps was installed but still clear the trojan. it's not done by install an apk. according to infected 20+ phones, 80% of the phone's cover were openned. I believe they downloaded "EEPROM" boot partition and add a small portion of code. If I root the phone, sometimes i can see an unknown encrypted partition. And administrator can't access most of the files on root. The only solution is root the phone and wipe everything then, put stock rom from other sources install, but it's risky. Any others methods or suggestion to check or verify the ROMs are original stock ROM?
Please help me! Thanks!
#The attach file is rooted phone /root_files, but most file can't be copied.
1. A Factory Reset - as its name implies - simply turns device into state when it was shipped by manufacturer, means all user-data / user-apps get wiped, system apps get reset to their original state if they got upgraded.
2. Wiping the Cache deletes only temporary system data, but not temporary user-app data.
Hence it should be obvious these 2 named actions will eliminate a trojan or other malware the Android device got infected with. But with the help of an activated Google Play Store they can re-install themselves.
Trojans ( hidden apps ) can easily get found on Android device.
FYI:
What all types of Trojans have in common is that they can only get onto the end device with the help of the user.
Trojans are not only found in email attachments. They can also piggyback on supposedly free programs. Therefore, it is once again important not to use dubious sources for software downloads such as codec packs or cracked programs, even if you might save a few bucks. The damage that can be caused by Trojans often exceeds the value of the software if it had been purchased regularly.
By the way, a Trojan should not be confused with a virus. Viruses reproduce independently, while a Trojan is merely a door opener - but with potentially devastating consequences.
i have the a51 and when i connect it to the pc to get photos off the phone and paste them into a pc folder and open it in the file explorer i get small icons and i get the oldest photos first. when i connect my lg aristo and my oterh samsung that i do not recall teh models they open photos in file explorer with large icons and newest photos first.
so it kind of looks like i have to do some phone settings to make this happen. i tried win10 but they are telling me i need different apps etc. but my older phones do this so the a51 should do this as well. even the nokia does thes but with that phone i have to first copy all the photos into a folder first.
anyway is there a setting on the phone that tell the files to open large and new files first? the phone puts the date and a file number on the photos automatically.
also on a side note how do i stop the pc from giving me that warning triangle in the taskbar and if i click that it tells me the phone has been disconnected or stopped working. i have even use the safe to remove hardware to eject the phone and i still get that message and i do not get it for any other phones i would just unplug those old phones and be doen with it. this phone give me that message every time
