I bought my daughter a Dell Venue 7 . I have the admin account and I created her a restricted profile . Her friend changed the lockout pattern on that account and we need to get the pictures off of it. The device is not rooted ( no experience with rooting) and I cannot access those files while the account is locked. Since it is a restricted profile it is not tied to a google account for remote unlocking. Can anyone advise if there is a way to retrieve these pictures? I was thinking that maybe I could root it and then be able to access them?

Long story short, someone came into our home while we were there and took many electronics.
One of them was the Galaxy Note II (ATT) and I see the device is still active and I believe it still accessing the google play store or syncing to my gmail account based on recent activity I can see from my gmail account.
How can I track the location from where this is happening? The police ares supposedly going after them after we found other clues but if I can get a location from where the device was being used, that would be a dealbreaker.
I have / had my gmail account setup and I see last time it synced. I'm not a pro at this but asking for help from some bright minds here. Can anyone help me out?
The more evidence I have for law enforcement, they won't be able to deny who I already know it is. I am looking for more proof to back up my accusation / discovery.
EDIT : Maybe this right place to ask this question or right forum or maybe I'm just out of luck and need to move on. Sorry if stepped over any boundaries with this post.
Hello,
I've had 4 phones stolen from my store during a break-in and one of them is still configured with our account, so I can install software through the Play Store.
I also have the Life360 locator activated.
But even with these features the police can't seem to find reason to look into it.
Is there a way for me to install any software/app that can either record conversations or take/upload pictures from the people who stole it?
I'd like to recover the phones, especially since my insurance won't pay for them.
Thanks in advance.

Hello guys lml
I have the LG Leon from T-Mobile which has been locked with a Google Account.
I have gained access to the main menu which incluides WiFi, Bluetooth,Battery,Accounts,etc.
The menu has all the regular options but the "Factory reset" it is not included so I have no more clues to solve this puzzle.
Recently I saw a guy who post a picture claiming that he could unlock the Google account for $100 so I don't believe this is a option
I will try to post a picture of the box he claims that can unlock google accounts so if someone recognize it please tell me the name and where I can buy it

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist
Try asking into the general forum here: Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!
My husband and I both have Samsung Galaxy S6's and honestly we have had nothing but weird issues, for example, the operating system is always flawed, we have had sign in issues with Google. There are unknown devices on the google account and also unknown devices on the wifi as well. The device seems to be under someone else's control and we have talked to Sprint and Samsung technical support, both of which have claimed there was absolutely nothing wrong with the device, and I would have to disagree! There is definitely something going on with the phone. Please any ideas are welcome and any step in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hi,
Thank you for your patience and for using XDA assist.
I would recommend visiting your nearest carrier store so that they will be able to see the problem themselves. Contacting them via phone or email will not show them the whole issue, as it is limited to what you can describe and what they have access to.
As for your Google account, check you google account settings on a computer to remove any unauthorized devices. If things go worse, you may have to deactivate your accounts.
Good Luck! - gsstudios
I got an iphone which was lost by someone it is locked by the user but the phone turns on it asks for user id and password what shall i do i need to use the mobile plzzz help me.
Hello,
You will not get any help here, what you are wanting to do is most likely illegal.
Please do not post any more questions regarding a phone that belongs to someone else.
