Hi,
I am trying to backup my phone with Helium and it asks to have a blank password. I'm not sure whether I have set this password before or not, but the backup wont work unless I have a blank desktop backup password. Is there anyway I can reset this password so I can backup my device?
Thank you in advance for the help :fingers-crossed:

Hi I have recently purchased Samsung Tab and was trying to download app from the Samsung app store, but before downloading the apps i need to log in. Now the problem is I have forgotten the password of the user Id (and basically i have no idea how the user name got registered in my device). Anyways someone suggested me to restore the factory settings to remove the user id and create a new one. Is there any other way to it?? If no then please guide me how to restore the factory settings.
Thanks.

I have rooted my phone. Wanted to use Titanium Backup. Still running the stock ROM. Now I find myself in the situation to do a reset to change the primary email address. Can the standard method *#*#4636#*#* be used to blank this phone to change the primary email?
If not, what would you suggest.
Thanks - Dan
Settings > accounts > remove your account maybe?
Here's the situation:
I have a Treo Pro with a PIN to lock access to the entire OS. I run an automatic Sprite backup every night to storage card. (Source phone)
I was having problems with the keyboard (keys stick), so I bought an identical Treo Pro. I did a hard reset on the new phone, and did a restore from Sprite backup. After reset, the new phone prompts for a password (as it should). The password which works on the "source" phone won't work on the "target". I have tried this multiple times.
This is not a crisis, because I can remove the password from the source, run a manual backup, restore that backup on the target, and then recreate the password on the target. All this seems to work OK.
But it leaves me concerned that my backup files are worthless if for some reason the source phone becomes unusable (while locked), and I have to restore a backup to another phone.
I can restore a locked backup from the source phone onto itself and it DOES unlock with the known password. So the password problem only occurs when restoring to a different phone.
Any thoughts? Is this by design? Is there a workaround?
I have a rooted Galaxy S5 and I use Titanium Backup while some of my important apps are backed up on the system (not cloud or SD card) As I was about to encrypt my device it required me to change my password. During the password change soon as I hit enter on the confirmation it crashed and immediately went to lock screen. I entered the previous password and the new password and some error occurred and it did not work. I have attempted to use google device manager and it won't connect to my phone for location setting isn't turned on. I have made 30 attempts on the password expecting a forgot password option which it hasn't offered. I have many important apps and data and I need a way to crack the password screen, or restore the titanium backup apps before doing a factory reset. I have even connected to my computer USB and it will not connect to my device either. Please help!! Can email me at [email protected]
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck
the problem is the following, I want to delete all the apps from the phone, I will reset the settings and reestablish it, when I start andorid, fill all the data it asks me, at the end I have the same applications again, I have deleted everything from the menu recovery, and I have done the same but they are not still using the same apps, I have even deleted everything from recovery and created a new gmail account (just in case there was a backup in drive), but it still does not work. So my question is this: Where are the applications restored from, if I have a different gmail account and have deleted everything from recovery ', HELP.

So normally when you factory reset the phone and then go through setup again, it should ask you to restore from backup or setup your phone as new. When you setup your phone as "new", it shouldn't install your apps again but it will install all default Google apps as usual.
