hi
how can i delete or disable guest user?
i set a pass for this user but when i switch user. in lock screen device ask: do you want to reset user profile and when i push yes button than password of this user is now gone.
whit this situation anybody can access to my data.
i have
p601 5.1.1 rooted
I don't think you'd want to completely delete the guest user. I had 'disabled' the guest user I thought and the guest user was invaluable to me, just today. I'm running a rooted SM-P607T and I had an issue were my lock screen pin was no longer recognized and I was locked out of the device. I was able to log onto the guest user account and with the help of various tools was able to repair the lock screen pin were I could again use the device with my account...and not have to flash everything on the device.
The Guest account was a life saver and if it used by a normal user has no rights to do any damage what-so-ever.

provided you didn't inappropriately attain said device and you know basic info like Google account login you can access device admin from a computer and reset password . additionally if u made a Samsung account you can use find my phone (it has unlock option )
There is an app called RemoveLock.apk, which might be of interest depending on what you are trying to do. http://pdanet.co/help/RemoveLock.apk I think it just removes the lockscreen, it's not actually removing the password so if you do something else security-wise that would trigger a password prompt, I'm pretty sure it will still ask. It doesnt require root and seems to work on most versions of Android. I use it because of FoxFi, the VPN certificate wont install without lockscreen security setup but I have no interest in locking my phone.
Would anyone know if the Galaxy S9 natively supports user profiles so that multiple users can login and use the same phone with their unique settings and apps? If not would anyone be able to recommend an application that could accomplish this?
The functionality has been disabled for stock Samsung ROMs long time ago (if it was ever enabled). There were some discusions in the past regarding this and what I remember is that you need root for this to work. You have to edit build.prop and include the lines:
fw.show_multiuserui=1
fw.max_users=n (where "n" is a number indicating the max users on device - should be at least 2)
Alternative is to flash an AOSP based ROM that has the function enabled.

I unfortunately cannot root the device as it will be provisioned for company use :/ is there a launcher that could help to accomplish this?
Sorry, none I know. The functionality is deep embeded in the OS, a launcher would not be enough to accomplish that
You could however use dual accounts for certain apps or mail and also use Secure Folder to lock out personal/private data. This way you will have some sort of multi user since the secure folder keeps data in separate encrypted form

x-post from miui forum
Hi,
I'm having some issues installing MobileIron MDM on my Mi 6, I'm running MIUI 10 Global 8.9.13 Beta. The installer works and the device is passing all required checks (i.e. device is encrypted, not rooted etc.) and the configuration is starting. But there's one point during the configuration which requires the installation of a certificate. At that point the installer is asking the user to enter a password by pressing and holding the password field for the context menu to paste the password which should be on the Android clipboard (see screenshot) which doesn't work, there is no password on the clipboard. I can use the 'Paste' function but nothing is entered into the password field.
I've done this on other phones and other Android versions before and it has always worked without any issues.
Has anybody of you encountered such a problem before? Copy/Paste generally works in other applications but during the installation the clipboard remains empty (I also tried to paste into a text field in a different application, didn't work).
Has something around the handling of certificate installations and/or access to the clipboard changed in MIUI 10?
Many thanks in advance!
BR,
Thorsten
I was able to fix it today. I've been trouble-shooting this with a Xiaomi Mi 5 and Xiaomi Mi 6 phone on different versions (MIUI 9 and MIUI 10, both global stable and global developer) but I now believe the version doesn't really matter, the "fix" should be applicable to all versions with this issue.
Here's a brief description of what happened -- this might make a bit of a confusing read, but bear with me: During the installation the user gets that notification about “Press paste on the next screen to insert password for the certificate….” but the next screen is not the certificate import (it is most likely a system dialog asking for the regular device PIN but I couldn’t fully test that step).
So there's that dialog where I thought I should paste the certificate password -- the step that repeatedly hadn’t worked. Today I finally used the “forgot password” function. I had tried that before but always cancelled it because the “forgot password” function was just asking for another password – which didn’t make sense to me at that time.
Today I noticed how the “forgot password” function brings up a dialog which contains my MI account number. That made me realize that the FIRST dialog might have actually asked for my device PIN (despite asking for a password) with the second dialog (after the “forgot password”) providing the option to remove the device PIN (or password) by entering the MI account password.
Long story short: I entered my MI account password which kind of “unlocked” the whole (and terrible) “import certifcate, don’t change certificate name, paste password” ordeal. [email protected] is working flawlessly now. It seems there’s some form of MIUI function around the MI account “protecting” the certificate store, that's why that MIUI dialog interfered with the [email protected] installation in an unfortunate and unexpected way.
Good luck to all who run into the same issue.
After logging in with either Waterfox or Chromium when I go to User Profile/User Details. It says:
"Our records show that you have already registered under the name of aileronster. If you have lost your password, click here. If you would like to modify your profile, click here."
Clicking the "Modify profile" just takes me back to the same message. Also I was having problems with Authenticate Email address didn't work and was giving the same message above I believe. So I waited a day to see if I would get a confirmation email with no luck
I've been reading for days on how to root/backup an LG K8 (2018) X210ULMG which doesn't seem to have proper support. So I have a long road ahead of me to figure out exactly how to create a custom TWRP, root the thing, RIP the ORIGINAL image off the phone (NOT Something similar.) So I need to be able to ask questions and get clarifications. So would really like to be able to make sure the whole site works for me, as I think I'm going to be hacking/researching this (hopefully carefully) for a while before I'm successful.
