Try looking up your email on the avast hack check. This might help you to figure out where your data leaked

It's probably something you installed using aptoide
Edit: Also, I know all the developers and rom builders for polaris pretty well and I don't think it's fair to just come on here and accuse them when you have zero proof of anything...

i have a galaxy s2 with many free and paid apps on it. i wish to transfer ownership of the phone and all applications including paid ones to a friend so that he does not have to buy all the paid apps on it again.
i would think it is possible since i paid for use of them if i wish to give up use under my name and assign use to someone else using the same phone i should be able to. i cannot find a way to do this in play store or in appbrain.
does anyone have a clue how to do this or know where to point me for instructions?
i would have better luck contacting Abraham Lincoln than i would trying to contact google.
as it is the phone will probably try to self destruct once i change the gmail account it runs under so i want to have this in place in the stores so it can verify and re-get the apps if necessary without hassle since the stores would know that he owns the phone and apps..
any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think you should try to contact Abraham Lincoln, that seems like a good plan of attack. Just Google his contact info...

i admit i am not familiar with titanium backup. outside of restoring any odd apps onto the phone so they run again, would that list the paid apps withi play store so when he gets an update to an app they wont try to charge him again? i want his apps account to totally recognize the s2 and all apps as 'his' without question so they will not try to charge him for them. i will have no rights at all to those apps on that phone. i have a galaxy note that i had to pay for all the apps again for it which is as it shoudl be.. it is a different phone...
i want to hand him the phone set up for his account such that when he goes to do anything with play store or appbrain they will recognize the phone and all apps on it free and paid, as his.
It is not possible to transfer apps from one user to another. It isn't even possible to transfer them to a different Google account that you use.
Read the Google terms and conditions and you'll see this on there - nothing you can do about it.

thank you. no i have not read their drivel. so then they on one hand scream freedom from being locked to a specific provider, and turn around and lock the phone in a far more sadistic and restrictive way. what we need is a company who believes in total freedom and implements such. they are no better than apple then..
wonderful.

The only one solution is to put your gmail account on the phone of your friend. But of course he will have an access to all your mails etc, so I don't think it is a good solution !

no. i did that once a few years ago for someone i trusted. that person abused the trust and bought all kinds of expensive apps and used my gmail email account as their own. i had to close everything out and start fresh so i will never do that again.
there is no earthly reason why a phone and all its installed apps cannot be moved from one account to another except google's apparent need for control or laziness in coding the proper routines.

They may well use an Open-Source software for their devices, which is a fantastic thing, but they are a business and exist to make money. You don't 'own' the apps when you buy them - you are just getting the right to use them. Anything beyond that would be considered on-selling, even if you are making no money from it. Do you think that Apple would let you transfer apps to a different account? Or Microsoft for that matter?

when you pay for an app you pay for a license to use that app. there is no reason why you cannot transfer that license to another person as long as you give up all rights to use that license yourself. i have done this with many microsoft applications and they support it. or at least they did as of the beginnings of xp. i would give the original disks to the person, remove the application from my machine and then i called msoft and advised them of the license transfer. they took the info and were happy. apple simply is not a contender in this situation. they are all about control. even moreso than microsoft and i would never have believed i just said that. dont get me wrong they make some incredible hardware and systems, i just totally am at odds with their business philosophies.
I know another stupid question from a noob. Under settings, security, trusted credentials. There are so many and a lot of them are in different languages, never really paid attention before. Why are they there and how do I know if they are really trustworthy? What would happen if I started disabling them, am I going to screw things up? Or are they just credentials from web sites that I visted and disabling them would just prevent me from going to that web site?
Thanks

I have noticed the smart lock fails 100 % of the time when using a trust location.
The phone will continually ask you for a fingerprint or pattern to unlock in trusted locations.
This is a important selling point for the device that does not work.
Tried uninstalling google service updates with no luck.

Nice first post, great trolling attempt. Ever thought its just and early bug of 5.0? Of course not everyone likes the phone is garbage bandwagon. It's not a major selling point.

Smart Lock is a Google feature in Lollipop not a Samsung feature!
It's not actually part of the rom at all. It only appears a little while after you log in to your Google account!
When you do a Odin to stock or Smart Switch emergency recovery, it isn't there immediately until after your Google account syncs fully. In fact the option may not appears until a few hours later!

Try searching before making assumptions. This thread will be closed soon.
Works perfectly fine for me, not to mention I also have an exchange account activated.
Sounds like the infamous ID-1oT bug that's rampant around here.

This problem is on a S6, the question is related to a S6 and this is the S6 Q&A, Help and Troubleshooting forum.
Future S6 users will come here with Q&A on their devices so in the light of device specific issues I think it is appropriate to post here.
Sure there is generic mention of similar issues but I'm talking S6 Specific and hope that Samsung or someone is reading the specific forum and assisting with patches.
Assumptions were not made, just addressing the issue in the CORRECT place for the CORRECT device for ease of future users who don't have to sift through tonnes of useless and unhelpful posts with regards to issues on the S6.
Please in the future can you try be helpful in your replies as unhelpful posts such as what you posted bring no direction or resolution to issues.

Doubt it's the rampant id10t bug. Maybe pebkac bug on the developers side.
How would the exchange account improve or lessen the functionality of the secure location function?

Some exchange admins disable smart lock features. Threw it in the response as that's another wildcard that could affect it, however mines works perfect and works as it should.
Could it possibly be the PICNIC error?
Such is not my case. This is stock standard install with no exchange installed.
Picnic error. Doubt it. I'm no noob to android despite bring new to this forum.
My thoughts on this issue is it appears as Google services somehow is not aquiring a lock when the phone is in sleep.

Just teasing anyways, man.
I don't know what to tell you. I have fingerprint, exchange, trusted devices and trusted places all working as they should. I have three trusted locations and all work flawlessly. I'm using the latest google play services, ending in 440.
Wish I had something, but I don't.
Same version.
I will make a backup and do a factory reset and start new.
One of my work colleagues has the same phone with the same issue and exact same carrier firmware.
Im thinking of flashing another firmware and see if it is carrier software causing issues.

Make sure you are not swiping on the lock symbol at the bottom of the screen to unlock. I thought smart unlock was broken until I started swiping anywhere on the screen OTHER than the lock symbol. The lock symbol forces you to unlock using whatever lock you have enabled even if you are in a condition where smart unlock should bypass the lock. Hope this is what the issue is as it was for me.
Moving home location to the beginning of my street and setting a new trusted pin works. my phone now no longer requires my finger print to unlock in the new trusted location pin.
I do not understand how this could be causing an issue unless its Google services having to fetch home location each time first and this could be taking too long.
Thanks for the contributors to this thread, all had some good points to add.
Hello
Is there a way to remove the exchange admin security. My Phone is rootet, but i don't know how to do it without xposed and wanam. On my S4 i did it with the feature "Bypass exchange security" but how can i do it on my rootet S6 with knox 0x0 (no custom recovery)? I need it to do autologin by bluetooth or wifi.
Thanks for your help
Hi all,
Today Andoid Pay launched In Belgium where I live, ofcoure I am an enthusiast Android user And I have a Rooted/unlocked device with an custom rom (lineageOS). I tried and download Android Pay, started using it and voila, I couldn't... I know Belgium is late to the party and searched to sign a petition, with all my surprise I could find any. So I made one myself! Please, sign the petition if you agree.
Android Pay petition page.
Regards,
Not going to get anywhere (especially with 100 signatures, would doubt even with 100,000 signatures), Google isn't going to allow it because it would lead to cheats and exploits to their system
Never, EVERRRRR going to happen. They willl not let rooted/modified users have access to something that has all sorts of banking/credit card info on it. Never will this happen get that through your heads people!

Hello, I am on the official rom. Since rooting Google pay and Samsung pass stopped working, I tried everything. Is there a ROM that could fix Samsung apps (they're nice for biometrics in banking apps)? Also Google pay isn't working which is a pain and a half.
Knox and it's evil micro efuse are at the core firmware/hardware level of these devices. It's a tough order to bypass them.
Some have gotten at least some of the functionality back. Some solutions used for specific apps or on older models may be helpful to you.
Try multiple google searches with XDA in the search parameters.
I tried googling but no luck

There are multiple threads about it here on XDA.
I run across them from time to time. I'm not rooted so they are only a curiosity to me.
Google search is probably the most effective way to find things on XDA. " your search, XDA" usually does the trick. Try different search words and phrases, keep it simple.
what should I try? Knox fix xda?

The specific app you're trying to fix, maybe rooted banking app fix. If I stumble across one of those threads I'll post a link. Hopefully someone else here will too.

from what I understand googel pay gives no buyer protection for anything for any reason with the exception for a very short time refund on apps purchased because it benifts them to lure people into using their payment for apps, but why would anyone be concerned or want to use this over any other cash app?
I don't know about spam pay although I would guess they are the same kinda people. I would root just to rid my phone if these soulless (if that's a word lol) corporations money apps
