Is it normal for Samsung galaxy to have protected data folder named user_de for a52s. I can understand default system and one user data folder.
Reason for asking is I'm trying to recover my phone from hacking ( already tried removing unnecessary system apps for user 0 using adb tools but I couldn't do anything for user_de. Someone is able to remotely change app permissions, force find my device, enable parental control and so on.
I checked ADB max users it shows only one user and hence worried about protected data folder under user_de. I can understand if system account is protected
I have checked and don't have Google play developer console activated, also deleted registered Google and Samsung accounts.
Any answer would be welcome. Thanks in advance

I'm not sure about the other user but honestly, I would just reflash it if it has been hacked. It would probably be the easier method anyways. Let me know if you would like to reflash it and I'll answer any questions.

Delete pre-installed apps on W10M

Is there a way of uninstalling preinstalled apps on WM10? Like Xbox, FeedBack etc.
First, why? Second, no.
exactly, this not as android bloatware.
Why not? And, why not? This is just like Android bloatware.

you dont have a clue how Windows working... just disable notifications in XBOX settings and you disabled app working in background.
you cant uninstall XBOX because is part of Microsoft account and you need him
Obviously, I don't know how it can be done, I wouldn't have asked otherwise. But I know that powershell and remove-appxpackage can be used on W10, so I wondered if there is a similar way for W10M. There must be one.

Hi
you can't "uninstall" but you can disable the installation during the 1st boot!
with the full MTP access you can delete the *.provxml files used to install those apps , then do a hard reset!
provxml files are stored in those folders:
Code:
PROGRAMS/PHONEPROVISIONER_OEM/OEM
PROGRAMS\PHONEPROVISIONER\Microsoft
PROGRAMS/DUMIGRATIONPROVISIONEROEM/provxml
PROGRAMS/DUMIGRATIONPROVISIONERMICROSOFT/provxml

Thank you for your answer!
I was hoping for something simpler, like tricking the App Manager to uninstall them.

Locked out of family pics etc. on Google Nexus 7 2013 edition

The screen on my Nexus 7 was damaged a few months ago, and it was left unused until I finally got it repaired and returned to me yesterday.
Unfortunately I have so many different devices, I have forgotten the PIN code. I was aware I was unsure of the code while it was in for repair, but I was relying on the fact that I thought I could use the Android forgotten password option to reset via Gmail.
Unfortunately it seems this option does not exist, despite inputting many incorrect PINs and getting the 30 seconds delay. I have read this must be because the version must be Lollipop or above.
I also tried Android Device Manager, which can communicate with the device as it is online, and I set a lock code 1234, which the Nexus 7 mentions when I turn on the screen, but it does not accept it. Apparently if the device already has a PIN lock set up, that overrides the Android Device Manager lock PIN.
I know I can factory reset, but I would hate to lose the pictures - and yes this is another reason why I should have configured something where my files are backed up to drive etc. automatically. Is there anything I can do?

If the bootloader is unlocked then follow these steps to backup your data.

It is not unlocked, but perhaps I am able to unlock it without the PIN?
I read online about the Nexus Root Toolkit, and that I could perhaps ADB pull with that? Here is a screenshot of the options from the website:

Okay, so the PIN just came to me, huge relief. I am going to set up Google Photos to automatically backup my photos in case this ever happens again, or the tablet is lost, and double check that I have Prey installed.
Is there anything I else I should do that may perhaps allow me reset the PIN in the future?

[COMBINATION FILE] [Galaxy A5-2017/A250f]

I tried to play a COMBINATION FILE on it, it was the version A520FXXUBASF1 because I was told that it is the binary 12, but it does not work it keeps telling me SW REV Check fail (bootloader) Device 12 Binary 11.
The reason for this is. that from my uncle the son had the cell phone and his google account linked. and the cell phone was set to factory reset and these no longer know the data. So with I want to put the phone once again completely and through numerous videos I was shown that I first have to play a combination file on it before I install a firmware again. Unfortunately, this is not possible as described above
and maybe someone has the right combination file for me, the current firmware, I have the works that I have already tested this is called A520FXXUCCSK1.
I already apologize for my bad english

You dont need such a combination file.
Just install the firmware through odin and you are good to go.

I did that anyway, the phone requires the old Google account previously set. and as described above, the data is unknown

So, if I understand this correctly, you are trying to get your google account login data?
no i want to remove this google login so I do not have to register first because we do not know the data anymore

and therefore would like to bypass the google login, because as I said the data is no longer known or have been forgotten. and I can not log into the phone

Huawei P20 FRP Lock Removal

Hello XDA,
Hoping someone here can help me. Not sure if it was relevant, but something must be but I was installing an APP on my P20 that helps to verify you to access Canada Gov't websites. Yada yada and now my phone has a password on it. At some point I was given Google Codes, but those do not unlock my phone now. I tried updating the phone from wifi and safe mode however it still comes up with the password screen below. The SIM card is now in my new phone (S20 - done with Huawei) and the old phone is in Airplane mode. When I drag up from the bottom you can see that menu at the bottom that mentions "Enable Magazine unlock" but doesn't do anything except calculator and flashlight.
Yes I can access recovery menu and the option to Factory Reset is certainly there and I know how to use it. The thing is I have over 3000 photos (most of them of our Cats) on there and I cannot and will not lose them. Been hacking this thing for a few days now and even though the P20 does not have an SD CARD slot, I was able to insert a USB stick in the USB-C slot with a bunch of useful hack .APKs but I cannot seem to be able to use them. In the EMUI menu I can select Update from USB but it just hangs at 5%.
I don't mind any kind of solution but it has to keep my data. Would installing Cyanogenmod delete my data? Anyone encountered this before? Also - obviously my phone has not been rooted and trying to connect to the PC via USB does recognize the phone, but Visual Studio, the Huawei software and ADB and everything else does not recognize it enough to communicate with it, perhaps because of the password.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Have you try to make a backup onto your pc or does it not see the device? I know there’s Back up Option under recovery mode at more than one place but not so sure if it would include all of your data.
The only way to disable a password on a huawei is thro factory-reset along with the password setup proses.
You said something about google codes. Can’t it by chance be from your find my phone, that the device is secured from find my phone platform

New to OS, serious file management issue

Hey everyone. Since I am new to Lineage OS (18.1), I have been reading many of the threads here hoping to learn from others, mistakes and knowledge. But recently I have had an issue with file management. Originally I was going to post a thread asking how I can delete or at least disable the native Files app, but after reading a few threads on a similar subject, I realize I would be heading into issues if I did successfully delete it. So, instead I will explain the issue(s) I am facing and then see what any of you educated peers (and in the past, lifesavers) have to offer for advice. I love this OS so I don't want to have to go back, but if I can't resolve this issue, I have no choice.
Okay, so the native files app cannot see the /emulated/Android/data or /emulated/Android/obb folders at all. Every other file management app I have installed (too many actually) can see those folders which would be fine but there are a few apps asking me to approve access to those folders or subfolders therein, and it ALWAYS opens the native Files app to accomplish that. So there are a few apps I cannot use at all till I can figure that part out.

Also, I am a heavy user of the Autosync app and every new device I install it in, on first run, in the settings, I need to Enable Write Access. Pressing that again, ALWAYS opens the native files app. Although the native Files app can see the SD card/External Storage, the Use this Folder button is greyed out and when I attempt to press it anyways it states, "Can't use this folder - To protect your privacy, Choose another folder".
I am sure there is an easy way around all this but it is becoming annoying, to be as nice as possible. I hope I am just overlooking something cause I would rather feel like a n00b dumbass instead of having to lose this new (to me) and wonderful OS, or even worse, lose access to several frequently used apps. Thanks for reading and more thanks if you are able to help!
