I have a LG g-slate that a friend got at a pawn store. it was pattern locked and he thought it would be a easy wipe like most android phones. he couldn't do it and i tried thinking the same thing. after searching around couldnt find anything. wanting to know if anyone knows how to do it. i can fastboot into it but not sure if that will even help. he got a good deal on it for $100 so he would like to keep it. Thanks for any help.

Guys I went out last night and cant remember much Im curious to actually knowing whether or not I did take my mobile Samsung Galaxy S2 out. (i think i did)
anybody know any ways to help find my phone. am gutted ive lost it.
haha
I got in at 3am and tried to call it, and it rang out
now it goes straight through to voicemail

the main question is did you have any kind of security gps on it and as we gs2 users are aware you battery has died mate. gutted to here that but without some form of location fix you may have lost it for good.
If i get it blocked,, it can not be used right?
and there is no solution to change imei for this phone if am correct ?
thanks
Go to the market on your pc and try installing Plan B. Hopefully it hasn't been wiped yet.. Goodluck!

Hello, I'm new to this forum. I'm a n00b when it comes to Android lol. My Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate got messed up. My friend rooted it and flashed a ROM on it because I didn't know how to do it. Now, when I turn it on, it won't startup. So, I'm getting my friend to fix the problem because I don't know what to do. Anyway, I have a spare LG Optimus One handy that I wanna use in the meantime. But I don't know what to do. I'm not sure if I have to unlock it or not. When I turn it on, it says "No Service." Does this mean that its locked? I bought an unlock code online. But when I try unlocking it, I'm not too sure what to do. Can somebody help me please? And if its unlocked already, how do I get it to work? I put in my SIM card from my Fascinate into the Optimus One but nothing happens. It still says no service. Can somebody help me, please!? I don't know what to do and I'm freaking out! I'm such a n00b when it comes to this stuff. I don't know anything about Androids lol.

I dont remember the code.
Try 2945#*509# and then enter the unlock code in the pop-up.
So a friend of mine dragged me into trying to help this woman who thinks her son was taken in by a cult. (I call it crazy but what do I know) He dropped off the phone an Atrix 2 and bailed. They want to see the deleted messages. Issue is that recovering them requires root and it seems I have that fun little issue that requires a factory reset before adb can figure out its magic. (I think a factory reset would create the deleted messages unrecoverable) Been reading every darn thread I could and still can't seem to find a solution. I kinda doubt there is one to be honest. But if anyone has something that might work I don't mind giving it a shot. Oh yeah you might notice its my first post but I haven't really had any issues with rooting before and to be frank I am just not really into these types of things enough to be able to give back to the community well. My apologies.
I have tried 1click methods, apk's, adb (fresh install on a new hard drive, had one layin about) drivers, inf changes, you name it I probably tried it.
Anything to be done?
Here's to the hope someone can help.

Amen to that, brother! :sly:
Anyway, regarding your query, I looked around and found this. It doesn't seem to require root so it might be just what you're looking for. :thumbup:
Also if you factory reset it doesn't overwrite the memory so you should still be able to recover them if you know where to look and prey to god that the memory doesn't get overwritten by something else

Hi , im new here and really need some advice.
I purchased a Z3 this week and bought it second hand , even though it is new but without box. I found out it has the dreaded demo app installed because i think it was ex-display in a phone shop. Once i plug in the charge it deletes my photos,contacts,apps etc. and comes up with the demo video. Iv'e tried the codes people usually use and done something else using the computer someone suggested ,but nothing works. I was thinking about rooting the phone but after looking on forums i can't seem to find anything to explain how to root it or even if it's possible yet because its a new phone. Iv'e tried to delete the app it has but it just keeps coming back. So need to find someone way that is like rooting the phone to get access to delete it permanently. If anyone can help , would be much appreciated. Thanks:good:
I've searched but I can't really find anything. In the developer options there is an oem unlock but other than that I'm not sure what to do. Any help would be appreciated.
It's clear.....

Root is always worth it. The bright side the phone does function pretty adequately for what it is. Decent battery life. Good Luck.
Out of curiosity, did you ever come up with a method? I'm trying to recover data from a system crash reset and have been told it's a lost cause because this phone is unrootable. Did you find a way? Would you care to share?
I did not. Sorry. It's unfortunate it's not a bad phone, sorry to hear about your issues.

If it is a Verizon phone or a StraightTalk phone, you won't be able to root the device.

I found a TracPhone model of this device, functional, with no SIM card in it, laying in the grass at a local park. Does anyone know anything about rooting or flashing it?

Not worth messing with unless it's unlocked. You'd have to pay monthly for service for a year just to switch carriers.
TracFone is good as a secondary line. I still use them for that on that exact model phone. Right now my G7 is out of power. If it breaks or the service goes down, I still have this Tracfone. TF does honor the unlock policy but they are very strict about it.
I do not know about rooting it. I expected it would never be rootable when I bought it. After digging into some cheap tablets over the last week, I decided I will never run an unrootable device. Those have hidden SIM cards and any attempt to access or disable that SIM causes the user data to be wiped. It's anyone's guess what info they are collecting, how, or who they are sending it to. I suspect this Tracfone does the same thing.
But... if it can be rooted, I'll do it.
Anyone able to get me the Bluetooth app for LG rebel 4? I want to try install it on LG Classic flip.
