access hidden files on my phone from my PC? - Security Discussion

Hello, there. I'm a note 4 user . and my phone's screen is destroyed. and it also got some damage on mother board i guess because somtimes it does not start but when it does its connected to wifi and i can hear sms or calls (i can use webwhatsapp ) but all of the important data is secured by private mode on the sd card. I plugged into my pc and I can see the folders but as empty is there any way to unlock that folders on my pc I know my password.

If your phone is rooted you may have some chance, but if you haven't used the developer options before I think it will be hard to allow your computer with the broken screen.
Your best option is to go to a mobile repair shop, they have propiertary software sometimes that will allow them to recover some kind of files, at a price of course.
Good luck!

[Completed] Retreive Files from Bootlooped ATM7029

A friend of mine that I gave a tablet to left it in a hot car and now it is bootlooping. She has a bunch of photos and documents that were written on the tablet that she would like to get back. The only trouble is that this tablet is one of those Chinese Action ATM7029 clones with little to no information on the internet about them. I figured out the combos to get into the stock recovery and do have access to SD cards to load recovery images onto it. ADB bridge / debugging was never turned on in the tablet so going into recovery does not create an ADB link. Here are the details:
Device: FastTouch 10" 8gb
Android: 4.2.2
Processor: ATM7029
Memory: 8gb flash / 1gb ram
ADB Enabled: No, USB Debugging was never turned on
Recovery: Accessible, but only stock version
SD Slot: yes, 8 and 32gb SD Cards are available to be used
Computers and Operating systems: I have a Mac with 10.8 with ADK 'installed', access to a windows 7 machine available
(Amazon link to the device: amazon_com/gp/product/B00ECKG0XK/)
Here is what I have done:
1) Got into recovery
2) Tried wiping cache and rebooting, still stuck
3) Tried ADB from a Mac machine, not recognized (ADB was not turned on in tablet)
4) Looked for any sort of recovery for the device. Sketchy possibles, no direct compatible found
5) Posted here.
Here is what I want to do:
1) Get the files off (if possible)
2) Get the device working, even if that requires wiping the files out (if possible)
Can anyone point me to a CWM or TWRP that would work with this device and let me form an ADB link to backup with? Even if the recovery ran out of ramdisk and didn't install that would be enough. I really want to get those files back out before doing dastardly things to the device. Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
Hi!
I can find nothing useful about that device on XDA. It is possible its suffered a hardware failure from the extreme heat and may be unrecoverable.
However, Please ask in the following general thread. Perhaps you will find some help.

Thanks for the advice. I wondered if I should post it there first. Will anyone be mad if I just copy paste that over?

[Completed] Wifi Auto On App?

Hi guys, Galaxy S4 (I9505) owner
Screen stopped working, USB debugging enabled but adb unauthorized so can not do anything
Airdroid works, want to backup my stuff but no data.
Is there an app I can install that will automattically turn my wifi on upon instal without me needing to do anything on the phone?
Any help would be greatly apprciated!
Thanls
Hi,
Not one that I can think of, there are apps Luke trickster that can do this but would need to be set up first, not auto on when installed. Maybe borrow a sim with data.
But feel free to ask your question at the general q&a forum found here

Someone may know of a trick for you

hello ,
i am hoping for some help . i have very little android experience and knowledge , but here is the info and problem i have on my mums tablet .
tablet is normally only used by her for emails and net surfing and has standard install and set up as it came out of the box . running android kitkat .
8 yr old grandson downloaded some free games and an app to run them ( i wasn't present for this so have no info on what he did or didn't do) , the next time the tablet was turned on a load of porn app icons had appeared on the home screen and the web browsers have been hijacked by rstep.xbkptek.com , and pop ups keep appearing with some zombie cartoon strip on them or bubble games , which then turn to porn . I have run malware removers and done a factory reset , but the web hijacker is still there and the trojan is still in the system apps (system/app/rstech_teni)
, it won't let me uninstall or disable it . someone suggested i look for the device on these forums to do a team win recovery and sidled the os back on . i have searched for the device and it isn't listed here , does anyone know how I can recover this device ?

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
It's possible the tablet got rooted with one of the apps, and the malicious app got moved to the system partition to be persistent. Or it could be, as a factory reset does not remove all files on the userdata partition, the malicious app(s) keep getting leveraged.
For the latter, it's just a situation of wiping everything on the userdata partition, and then doing a factory reset for safe measure. Can do that with connecting the device to a PC, using mass storage or MTP, and then going on a delete frenzy. You may need to force close some apps first though.
If it's the former, you will need a recovery image. This could be attained by contacting the manufacturer, and then flashing it the method they determine (as the method is different by OEM). There is another option if it is rooted, but it is risky if you don't know which app files are safe and which are not.
At any rate, please go ahead and create an XDA account, so you can post in other forums. You can try posting in the > General discussion > Questions and Answers > [HELP THREAD] Ask ANY Question. Noob Friendly thread. Anyone with general knowledge of all devices should be able to pick this one up for you.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
thank you , i have tried the latter 5 times and still have the problem trojan , so have contacted the manufacturer as suggested . I will create an account once i receive a reply

[Completed] Garmin usb mass storage not detetced

Hi
Can anyone please enlighten me on how to fix my Garmin 660 GPS
My issue started when I plugged the unit into the computer to perform a routine map update
I had been having some issues with a few of the media files that I play so I thought I would replace the MP3 files on the MicroSD card only this this I left it in the unit
I usually format the card and install new files separately from the unit but I formatted the card yet by some magical god like intervention the internal storage was also wiped.
I would suspect that Garmin would not make it this easy to delete important files as now the unit is not detected by any computer. The unit has deleted the maps.
It just starts and restarts over and over - I finally managed to get a hard reset to actually do something at all. Now and then it will bring up the software (no maps)and will Bluetooth but a hard reset every time to make this happen and does not always work - basically it a useless device.
None of the Garmin programs can see the GPS - I have backup of the device but no help - I have the factory software no help, the factory reset - partial but does not load the drivers - tried many Gamin driver update - took it back to supplier (GPS specialist) they said have to send to Garnin
I ride a bike and it is hard without the GPS to find my way around plus it include music and my phone plus it cost over $600
surely it is possible to access the root directory and replace what ever files it needs
My question is
How can I get the device to open a port to access the internal storage and load what ? to get the USB port functioning when it plugged into the computer.
I have basic computer knowledge - If anyone knows how to fix this issue please be kind enough to explain the method in easy to follow instructions and exactly what file or files I need and where I can obtain them and how to install them,
Can the port be forced to open -I tried a couple of methods from the net but didn't work for me
Please help if you can
Many thanks for reading and all suggestions would be much appreciated

I don't have a TV Box but, it looks like you may have a Chromecast.
