#1 tip
wifi off - reboot - wifi on
#3
if you can't install 'towelroot' then install 'stump root '
and install 'supersu'
It took me about three hours to complete the work. GOOD LUCK.

One day I decided to find out if the lock of McAfee works, so I went to this site : https://www.mcafeemobilesecurity.com/ and pressed lock. The phone locked. I entered the six digits pin and it unlocked. One day trying to flash a kdz I realized that the phone wasn't able to enter download mode. I returned to the site and from there I pressed lock and then unlock. I didn't enter any pin. Now the phone is able to enter download.

thank you

Rooted device and deleted crucial apps!

So I rooted my Samsung Galaxy tab 3 8.0 (TM310) and started deleting bloatware. I restarted the device after deleting a couple of bloatware and think I deleted a necessary Google app. I kept getting a popup saying "android device manager has stopped working" so I think I deleted that. Being stupid I never actually created a backup (learnt my lesson) and thought if I factory reset the device, I'll have the original apps back; this did not work and created a problem. Now when I try to setup the the tablet, the google part comes up after setting up WiFi and it asks you for your first and last name to personalise the tablet. Considering I deleted an app, it just says android device manager has stopped working and just restarts the part where I have to enter my name. Essentially I can't setup or use this tablet without the app so is there a way to actually get it back? I'm willing to try anything as there is no loss. Tablet is useless otherwise. Thanks for your time!

Warning sign in notification telling me KingRoot is bad?

Suddenly I get a warning telling me to uninstall king root 4.9.6. I've been running same fulmics 6 for months and I just discovered the warning sign today.
What is this? Is there any potential danger to keeping king root? If I uninstall king root I will loose root privileges, yes?

Fulmics has SuperSu installed as System application,there was no need to install KingRoot..
Also if you have two Root apps (same like SuperSu),then your phone isn't going to have a good time..
So delete KingRoot and stay with SuperSu.
Greetings.
Thx. I used king root to first get root access so I could install fulmics. Iirc I found the king root from a post here on the forum, so I assumed it was safe.
I disabled king root.btw it is fulmics 6.1 I got. It seems all things good now. I feel a little paranoid, as I discovered king root is from China ?
I wonder if I should do complete install from scratch or am I safe as long as king root is not longer active?

The best choice is to uninstall it.Because it has setted it's self as a system application.
But also i think it has an option (in-app) "Uninstall".
In addition if Kingroot is unable to uninstall by using the inapp option then try installing an app from Play store called " System app remover" and delete it from there.
If nothing works then doing a clean re-installation of the ROM would be a great option.
A Tip:Never install an other Root application while you have SuperSU.
Let's take Kingroot for an example, when you have SuperSU and install Kingroot then automatically Kingroot detects that you have an other root application and it set's it's self as system app.
System app remover did the trick. Removed the King Root app. Result is o/c that adaway is no longer working. So I get to play around with SuperSU now. As I am new to SuperSU I am not sure how to get the correct settings. Should I make SuperSU a system app? Or set permanent full root?
Btw, I never had any problems running King Root. It was even a very nice way to charge the phone because King Root made charging go faster.
I've been thinking about the warning sign I got, and could it possible be a generic warning because King Root had root access? Meaning I would get the same warning with other apps with root access?
It seems strange that King Root that is mentioned som many times here on XDA should be crapware. Surely some smart people would have noticed and made posts about it? I am thinking maybe I panic'd and removed King Root prematurely?
Darn it. SuperSU won't run or allow me to set root access to apps. So no TWRP does not work, adaway does not work, root checker confirms I don't have root anymore and to make things worse, SuperSU says I need to upgrade, so I downloaded the latest version as a zip file to install from TWRP but guess what, no more root access. I will try to boot manually into TWRP and install SuperSU. Hopefully that will work.
And reading SuperSU thread it clearly says I must have ROOT prioer to install SuperSU.
Is there are fulmics setting somewhere I have overlooked? Can I set root from within fulmics tweaks?
Well I didn't get the SuperSU working, then I discovered that there was a newer version of KingRoot, v5.0. So for the ease of it I just installed KingRoot v5.0. As of right now, I don't have any warning signs saying Kingroot is bad news.
So unless it is a known fact that kingroot is infected by crap/malware/spyware/whatever I think I just stick to that one for now. I am used to it, I know how to work it and google didn't find any indications kingroot has been compromised . I saw a few posts about earlier version sending IMEI to china, but it seems that was v3xx. v4x and5x seems to be ok.
If this is stupid behavior and I should remove king root let me know and pls add some links or something to back it. I would hate to give a compromised app gateway into my phone but at the same time I think I was in panic mode earlier today and that my reaction was uncalled for.

Then if you are used to Kingroot just uninstall SuperSu(Install the system app remover from Play store ((the first app that appears)).
Because as i mentioned before if you have two Root applications your phone isn't going to have a good time.
(That may be the problem your phone went to Panic Mode)
If you have Kernel Panic mode problems (after unstalling SuperSU) a clean reinstall of the latest version of Fulmics ROM would be great..
PS:I don't know if Kingroot has any type of virus but I'll check if it has anything malicious.
As i checked you said that you lost root access and you took it back with Kingroot right?

Seems I am good after all. Turned out I messed up the fulmics 6.1 badly when trying to get adaway for youtube to work. So now I got fulmics 6.5. Yeah I know it is not the latest but I had slow internet connection and 6.5 was already downloaded but not yet installed so I just picked that and did a swipe, and twrp install of fulmics 6.5.
I did however install king root 5.01 again to get an easy way of getting everything else important installed that requires root.
If I don't see more warnings I think I will be fine. If I do I will take the plunge for superSU and read up on that before making the switch.
If I see those warning signs again I will try not to panic and try to keep calm

Can't access my device after Factory Reset in Samsung Galaxy J2.

Hello folks,
i have Samsung Galaxy J2. Yesterday, my device got stuck and after restarting the device, it failed to open up normally. So i did a factory reset ! But it took me to Wi-Fi Connection setup and enter gmail id.
As i remember this phone belonged to my brother , when he purchased, the shop keeper must have made a gmail id for him and entered like so.
But now, as i enter my gmail id , it refuses to accept my gmail id, my bro can't remember his gmail id.
Also my phone is running Android OS 5.1 or higher and it must have had Android Factory Reset Protection (FRP) turned on.
I don't know if there is another way to access my device. Or to flash it with different ROM.
plz help me to solve the problem
help me, I root a j2 prime device using magisk and it works out later which is my problem when I start installing xposed fremework with the appropriate version of the device, v87 sdk28 but why does my device fail live, is there something wrong?

Black shark 3 assistance needed

So I have had my bs3 just over a mth now and I really love it.
Unfortunately mine came with the Chinese Rom and this is causing some problems for me.
1) cant sign in to the black shark account because the region code is locked
2) whatsapp, snapchat and a few other apps are really inconsistent with notifications (the min the phone goes to sleep it stops receiving msgs until I reopen the app)
3) tinder gives me a location access not granted even though it has been given access.
4) phone doesnt stay connected to pc when plugged in and I have to constantly tweak the usb settings to get it to. (semi fixed by usb drivers which were a pain to install)
In reading up seems like this could be fixed by the global rom but nowhere seems to have it. I even tried contacting blackshark directly to which they said they dont give out the firmware over the internet as there is a chance it would brick it ( I call bs because xiaomi does it FOR EVERY OTHER PHONE and has a tool for it on their site). Does anyone have any idea how to fix any of these issues?

If your bootloader unlocked , flash the twrp and magisk to root it. Then systemize google apps ,your notifications will be no issue. Most of the google apps will work like global rom. For my case i still use China and i found out china mp5 is more smooth. Just my 2 cent..

Lol so you basically speaking gibberish to me is there any instruction or tutorial on how to do those things?
As I said I generally love the layout its just the annoying part of not getting a few apps to work properly (whatsapp, tinder and snapchat in particular)
