oh this does't work for Lollipop ,what a waste.
Moto E is running on Lollipop.
Since there is no way to root our device yet, there is no way to remove stuff you don't want to from the system itself. Or, not by removing the folder/apk itself. But there is a way to deactivate the application so it wont "exist" in the system. This can even be done with apps that you normally can't deactivate in applications menu. You will need adb shell to do this (I use Linux, but the procedure is about the same in Windows).
First, activate Developer menu. You do this in Settings > System > About Phone and push Version 5 times. Now you get the menu Developer options (or whatever it's named in your language). Activate developer options, and them USB Debugging. Connect your cable to your computer and open the terminal and run adb shell. You will get something like this;
Code:
zynex~*sudo adb shell
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
H8324:/ $
If you get error: insufficient permissions for device, try adb kill-server and try connect again. You will need to find the application name you want to disable, fx com.touchtype.swiftkey. I use FX Explorer, but there's a bunch of other apps that will do this. Then you use this command to disable it;
Code:
pm uninstall --user 0 <APP NAME>
The app will be removed from the system directly, if it don't, reboot. The files itself won't be removed from your system, but will be app will be unavailable. If you want to reactivate the app again, you will have to access and run the apk file (inside system/app or system/priv-app) thru fx. FX Explorer or similar program.
NOTE: If you disable com.google.android.syndadaptors.contacts, Sony Contacts apps crash (not sure why).
Happy hacking

Samsung Luna StraightTalk S120VL FRP Bypass
In Model Number usually..
BL = Tracfone
VL = Straight Talk
(Both the same company but there are differences in ways used to do FRP removal depending on certain devices so I always list accordingly)
Tested on U2 firmware APJ2 so not sure if this works on U1. If the U2 firmware is wanted I will host and post it here.. It can be found by searching google too.)
Security Patch: (October 1, 2016) and.. should work fine on any other.
I had a stack of these phones gave to me for FRP Removal and these days I usually use Uni Android Tools, OctoPlus, or Z3X boxes for SamSung work. I tried while knowing this would most likely not be possible with this handset model. Success = 0. Tried a multitude of other operations and still nothing. Upgraded Firmware to the latest U2 because i had it, couldn't find a (free) combo in the time i looked and thought maybe it would allow something different.. I might be right. This is the first one in the stack I have done this on. So I will edit / post about U1 (Binary 1) models once this one is finished off. I know the methods work below just getting this write up done first. Anywho..
Whats needed? (each will depend on method taken below)
1) Bluetooth EarPiece
2) Old sim card (Verizon best for this way)
3) ADB Installed (Install this anyway as it's handy to have!) - Here is a link to a super quick and easy installer that will do it and while making ADB systemwide. Thanks to XDA user @Snoop05
Link for basic info - https://www.xda-developers.com/15-s...ng-fast-adb-fastboot-and-driver-installation/

4) ADB FRP Removal Application
Lots of ways past this initial point.. Here are 3 i know of that will work for this $20 old pocket buddy.
1) Preperation - First start off by hard resetting your Samsung Luna S120VL
Next find a sim card. I used an older used Verizon sim card. No longer in service. Put it in.
Boot phone. Goto Emergency Dialer. Dial 112 and instead of taking you to 911 (good yeh?) you'll get a voice greeting by Verizon. While this happens pair your bluetooth. (best if you have it in pair mode before dialing)
2) Removal - Three ways to do this. 2 more possibilities to do at the bottom of this post.
a. Connect to WiFi with Bluetooth. -> [Will do this when i get time]
b. Stay offline and use Bluetooth to open Calculator. Type in Calculator (+30012012732+ Now DRParser will open. Type now.. *#0808#. USB Settings will open now select the last one that says DM + Modem + ADB. Select reboot and watch your phones screen when you reboot. Enable when you get the authentication popup. Stay on the very first page of the setup wizard.
-
Now open CMD prompt type
Code:
adb devices
and make sure your device shows something like this -
List of devices attached
8e60d4bf device
Yeah? Ok now copy the following code and paste it into the CMD window and press enter.
Code:
adb shell content insert --uri content://settings/secure --bind name:s:user_setup_complete --bind value:s:1
Follow through the Setup Wizard which will quickly drop you onto your home screen and now you are done!
If the above command does not work in your case you can try the following command below. This will take you to login screen and then you can enter you Google account.
Code:
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login/
If both previous commands do not work then try this.
Code:
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.gsf.login.LoginActivity
c. Stay offline and use Bluetooth to open Calculator. Type in Calculator (+30012012732+. Now DRParser will open. Type now.. *#0808#. USB Settings will open now select the last one that says DM + Modem + ADB. Select reboot and watch your phones screen when you reboot. Enable when you get the authentication popup.
-
Now use one of the many apps out there to remove FRP now that ADB is enabled. I will ask the moderators about posting but not sure it is allowed. Also the one that is easiest to use and that I recommend will trigger a false positive on Anti Virus. IF ok to post I will update this thread with a download.
----
Other Methods?
Accessibility Mode Method - When i get time (if it's possible.. as a quick check on U2 APJ2 didn't allow much)
ADB enabled boot IMG - Found one and these can be made as well but the one i have found (free) is from the Factory Engineering Firmware I believe. I just don't have much more time to fool with these luna phones. You'd just need to flash this then no need for bluetooth.. Again when i get a minute and remember I will put it up here.
Enjoy!

So, My Redmi 5A fell from hands and ended up with completely black display. I could call and hear my ringtone and upon connecting to SCRCPY could see the lock screen. I could not unlock it as I had not allowed the input stimulation permission. So, I took it to service center and they a tried a couple of displays and told me that data will have to be wiped in order for the new display to work. The phone contains crucial amount of data that I cannot afford to lose. So, I brought is back and tried the following steps:
1. The lock is pattern style and I tried usb mouse over OTG but could not perform the correct swipes due to no display.
2. I found an app that can make one android act as mouse for another android. I could connect my phone through SCRCPY and unlock it with that app but the problem is I need to approve the bluetooth pairing prompt for the first time.
3. I looked around google to pair a bluetooth device using ADB but all methods require the device to be rooted.
4. Despite knowing the pattern, I can't find anyway to use a keyboard over OTG as it will be more precise than mouse.
Is there a way that I can solve this problem? Can I unlock my phone using ADB as I know the pattern? Can I connect my phone through usb to my PC in order to run SCRCPY and use a mouse at the same time to unlock it? Or is there anyway of display replacement without data wipe? Help a troubled fellow
you can't simulate touch events via adb shell input keyevent/ tap? is that some miui permission?
can you adb pull -a /sdcard?
surely there is a way maybe something with
adb shell settings put secure ...
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.Secure
edit: I think it's somehow related to miui security center. at least I can't find it in settings tables
if you are not afraid about more invasive methods you could enable adb root shell in boot.img, root with magisk or flash twrp.img from EDL mode. this requires hacked splash.img and some bytes appended to magisk_patched.img
Note: In any case do a full raw dump of all partitions first, kinda failsafe backup.

I'm not much familiar with all this. I don't think that I'll be able to do it safely. I'm trying blind swipes using OTG mouse but that too is now appearing to be futile. Is there a way that I can connect my Redmi 5A to a monitor using some sort of HDMI adapter and then use a mouse at the same time via OTG? Will that work? Please help me. I am really troubled by the thought of losing my data.

Yes there is setting in MIUI security center. I have pulled data like my photos and videos but could not pull my texts, call logs, contacts and other app data which I need the most such as my Signal chat data.
unfortunately app data is not accessable via adb. you can read contacts and sms in plain text
Code:
adb shell content query --uri content://sms
adb shell content query --uri content://com.android.contacts/data
you could try MyPhoneExplorer it uses adb
you could try adb over wifi
Code:
adb tcpip 5555
adb connect 192.168.1.222:5555
adb -s 192.168.1.222:5555 shell
don't panic. your data is still there, just don't do anything stupid.
but consider risk of losing adb authorization. this can happen if you run different adb.exe from either platform-tools or from scrcpy directory. backup your adbkey.pub from .android directory now (although still could expire)
@helpwithabrokendisplay Don't try too much wrong pattern you will locked out from gatekeeper!

Hi! This ADB over WiFi looks promising. I can use SCRCPY over WiFi and then connect mouse via OTG. The problem is how do I connect my Redmi 5A to the same wifi network that my PC is connected to. I was able to turn on WiFi using "adb shell svc wifi enable". Could not really find much on Google about it. Can you please tell me how can I connect to a specific wifi network usinf ADB? Anxiously waiting for your reply.
you can try this app adb-join-wifi.apk to join new wifi. but why not spoof any formerly known SSID in residential gateway wifi settings, so phone can connect automatically?
Connecting to WiFi using adb shell
I have all the details to connect to a particular access point. I have to use that access point only, so all I require is the command to do it.
stackoverflow.com
Hi! I was able to connect SCRCPY over WiFi and turned on the setting that had stopped me from entering inputs through scrcpy. So, I backed up all my appdata. Thanks a lot. Is there a way to donate to this website or more specifically to you?
although I wonder how you could backup without root, glad you solved. don't thank me, consider donation to scrcpy or MyPhoneExplorer if you find it useful

MyPhoneExplorer didn't work. I donated to SCRCPY. Actually I opened all my apps and backup up data to Google Drive or created an offline copy which I restored on my other device. Thanks a lot to you. Hope you have a great time

What app are you talking about in #2, I know my pattern but my screen is broken, so if I could simulate a mouse that would make the pattern, with another device, I could get back into my phone, thanks!
