I think it will work for me but is there anyone who tried any data recovery app after this method and got no data.... If so, then this man deserves all the love and blessings.... 😢

Curious if running this for a few dozen passes would damage a phones onboard storage chip. As far as I know drives of any kind have a max TBW (Terebites written) before they corrupt and cause issues.

Hi.. can all these methods mentioned be done on a custom rooted rom or should I flash the original rom first..? Thank you.

@JustinCia 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! I followed all the steps then did a factory reset to add another layer of protection. Does Samsung already encrypt data and if not, which programs have the best privacy policies in jurisdictions like California or the EU with effective privacy laws such as CCPA and EU GDPR?

@cloudstrifeification Год назад

What if you did not know any of this and have already done the factory reset thinking that would remove all of you data from the old phone. Can you still securely erase your data?

Here is my question. I have to transfer my data on. my old phone to my new phone and then send the old phone back to the carrier. I am going to be using Samsung Smart Switch to do the transfer instead of using my Google account to transfer the data. now do I do the data erasing on the old phone after I transfer the data? the reason why I ask is because I noticed you said to backup the data before doing the erasing. my last question is since I am sending the old phone back to the carrier can I still use the encryption method instead of the data erasing method or does it not matter. I know the carrier still need to access the phone and I don't know of the encryption method bocls anyone from able to use the phone etc... Cheers!

@shj92922 Год назад

so you mean to do factory reset then i must use shreddit?or first i use shreddit then factory reset?

@granjmy Год назад

If you do a factory reset first, you have to still sign into your Google account on the phone. Otherwise, you can not download Shreddit from the Play store. I bought a used phone from eBay, which I am returning. I did a reset, but the phone is still in my Google account. I found this video while searching how to remove the device from my Google account. Even after signing out of Google account on the phone, it is still listed as a trusted device. So, I'm trying this app, and I'll go from there.

Is running running "Wipe data/factory reset" from Android Recovery the same thing as "Factory data reset" from within the OS? I have had any success finding definitive information on that.

@jackd9331 Год назад

Hi. Great video. Just had a question. I got an android tablet a few days ago but decided to return it for reasons. I already signed into some accounts and downloaded some apps which i have signed out of and uninstalled. From what i could tell, the device was encrypted by default as i don't think there were any options for me to encrypt data. If it was encrypted, would i need to use shreddit? I've already factory reset the tablet after thinking it was encrypted but now i'm anxious that I forgot something important. Just wondering if you could help. Thanks.

@Britec09 Год назад

It's unlikely that that device was encrypted by default. So your data is recoverable even after factory reset

@jackd9331 Год назад

@@Britec09 So what would you recommend I do now? It's to be returned soon. All i saw under encryption was 'encrypted' and there was nothing else i could do apart from 'credentials'.
