Anyone having read my past, remote controlling-related articles knows there already are some remote control solutions to remotely access a Windows Mobile device from under desktop Windows (or, for that matter, with VNC, any other platform, even including another Windows Mobile device).

Solutions allowing this include SOTI's excellent and, if you don't mind the price tag, by far the most recommended Pocket Controller (review HERE). Other, not that good solutions include the abandoned, not recommended PDA Controller, dotPocket, the, so far, only app to support over-the-firewall solution, MS PowerToys and the Windows Mobile version of the free VNC server, PocketVncServ. (See the review & comparison of all these titles HERE).

Now, LogMeIn, which has an already excellent and highly recommended "control the desktop from the PDA" solution thoroughly reviewed in the Desktop Access Bible, also started to offer something similar.

The new solution, as opposed to all of the existing ones (except for that of MS PowerToys , which also allows for avoiding having to have a direct, non-firewalled Internet address), offers a Web-based interface to control (even) remote Windows Mobile devices. Make sure you sign up for the beta if you'd like to grant remote access to any Windows Mobile device you or your company needs to remotely control / administer and the current, above-listed solutions aren't sufficient.

I want to share a program that could easily detect, kill and protect from annoying Ghost Push Trojan Android Virus with friendly user interface. I have tested many times on my customers' phones and so far so good. This virus may persist even if you flash firmware. But this tiny tool will save your device from that Virus. Busybox will also be installed because it is needed to execute required scripts.

Turn on USB Debugging

Plug the phone

Run Software

Authorize incoming usb connection

Choose any action from tool

Root Access is Required!

Hi, I have done everything has said but at the end,the phone was not rooted and I am getting the following msg. Titanium backup when trying to look up if it was rooted correctly: Titanium Backup has been denied permission for an interactive shell.

Any idea what it means?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
Did you flash a kernel? If you did then download super su from the market and try TiBu again. The error means that TiBu was not given super user permissions. So either you dont have a rooted kernel or you dont have SU installed to grant the requested permissions. OR you have both and just didnt grant SU permissions when asked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] YannAlex:
I did flash a kernel , and any other softwares provided under this link: http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-galaxy-note5/general/easy-steps-n920t-aoge-odin-twrp-root-t3187422

Next, what do you mean by Supersu from the market? What is TiBu also?

Thanks for your contribution.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
The market has a super user app for managing SU permission requests, you may already have it. It will look like a pound sign "#" and say super user or SU. If you dont have that app you need to download it. The developer is named chainfire.

TiBu is short hand for Titanium Backup
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] YannAlex:
Waouh I am learning a lot from you guys. O, I will be looking for that SU with the # sign. It is definitely not what I currently have.

by this sentence: "OR you have both and just didnt grant SU permissions when asked." : do you mean that the phone may have already been rooted? without SU telling me? because honestly, I dont know whats wrong.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
If you already have SU then you would have been prompted to grant super user permission by a pop up dialog. If you mistakenly select deny or wasn't paying attention (it has a time out that will select deny but only temporarily if no user input is selected). If you mistaken selected deny then you would need to open the SU app and remove the TiBu entry, restart TiBu and select allow.. That is only IF you have the Super User (SU) app installed..

Hi, I just realized that I am not done yet. More new issue with the phone. It looks I did not do something right or one of the softwares is not correct: after we rooted the phone yesterday, IO had it unlocked with the help of stilfilz. However, ever since , when I make phone calls, the phone would go off by itself after a while.

Have you heard of previous similar mistakes? If yes, any ideas about how to fix it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] pcriz:
You need a different kernel. You should give me the model number of your phone and I will point you to the most recent arter kernel. I am assuming you are rooted with noble which was known for kernel panic during phone calls which caused reboots

Experienced users feel free to shoot me down right away, but I was reading that the Canadian S5 has an unlockable bootloader, unlike the US version.

Could a person flash the Canadian bootloader via Odin, Root the phone, and then flash the US bootloader back?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] landshark68:
NO! Cannot be done.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] swing4thefence:
I know just enough to get myself in trouble. Do you mind explaining why it wouldn't work?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] landshark68:
Because each partition on the phone is signed with a key. If the keys don't match, the phone won't even boot. Canadian model bootloader will have a different key than the other partitions on the Verizon model.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] elliwigy:
to add, in order to flash a different BL outside of vzw BL id think the BL would first need to be unlocked which if the case you wouldnt need a canadian bl to begin with

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
You were trying to update firmware using twrp?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
First, I would suggest plugging your phone into a wall outlet and charging it until it's fully charged. You can get to the bootloader with the phone off by pressing power + volume down. Afterwards, I suggest running the latest RUU, not simply a FUU. This is done from the bootloader, not TWRP.

I have a Note 3 running 5.0 (model # SM-N900W8 ) that I rooted using Kingo Root and then I downloaded Freedom. This caused Google Play and several other apps to stop working so to try and fix this I uninstalled freedom, unrooted and factory reset my device. Turns out this wasn't a very good strategy now I get the error cannot establish reliable connection even though I know I'm connected. So I read that you have to have your phone rooted to fix this but Kingo Root isn't working anymore. If someone could help me I would greatly appreciate it.

Reflash the same rom via ODIN.
[HTC One A9] chengka:
Hello,

I received my A9 yesterday. So far so good. I have a question about power on. I have never seen an Android device behave this way.

At power up, I get a padlock symbol on the screen which is unlocked. I bought the unbranded unlocked phone, so I assume that's a reference to my device being unlocked. After that screen I get a screen asking for my password.

"Your phone is encrypted"

"To decrypt your phone enter your screen lock pattern"

Is this something unique to HTC or the A9? I saw something that this may be different for rooting, but any information regarding this screen would be appreciated.

Ken
[HTC One A9] FatKris:
I'm waiting for a response to that exact same question. I also received my unlocked a9 yesterday.
[HTC One A9] jollywhitefoot:
I believe this is a result of marshmallow full-disk encryption and starts happening after you setup security on your phone. Remove security and you should no longer get this screen.
[HTC One A9] darkburst1991:
I just installed all my apps. and it did a restart. now its asking for decryption pw.

WTH!

is there a default?!
[HTC One A9] jollywhitefoot:
Just use the pin/password you used when you set up your device security. Once you enter it, you'll bypass the lockscreen and go straight to your home screen.
[HTC One A9] darkburst1991:
Thanks, I tried to get cute during set up and use a newer pin. I feel stupid. Thanks!
[HTC One A9] jollywhitefoot:
Understandable. New device. New pin.
[HTC One A9] Newcron:
Anybody knows how to avoid having to enter a PIN every restart, but do want PIN (or fingerprint) to unlock?
[HTC One A9] jollywhitefoot:
Just wondering, but what's the difference between entering your pin at boot versus at the lock screen? On boot, you still only enter it once.
[HTC One A9] Newcron:
First of all, with this phone I never have to even see the lock screen. I don't have to enter my pin or even push the power button to turn the screen on. I just need my finger. Also, sometimes I restart my phone and put it away to do other things. Now I have to wait until the phone restarted and only after I entered the pin I could put it away or it'll get stuck waiting for it forever.

Just wanted to add that on the Nexus, there's a way to set this up. You can have a PIN protecting your lock screen (and use fingerprint to bypass that) but not on restart. I could not figure out how to do it with this phone.
[HTC One A9] Kardon403:
On that nexus, is full disk encryption enabled? The reason it prompts for your password before booting is because the entire disk, including the OS, is encrypted with your pass. Older devices which cannot decrypt on-the-fly without a noticeable performance hit won't offer full disk encryption. FileVault on OS X is another example of this type of encryption. With FV enabled the user is prompted for their password twice when powering on their computer: once to decrypt the drive and once again after its loaded to login.

One allows the device to read and boot the OS from the encrypted storage, the other simply grants access to the user to use their phone. The screen that is shown initially is stored in a separate unencrypted portion of the storage, it's kind of like a bootstrapper to the actual OS.
[HTC One A9] Monfro:
I think that encryption is mandatory for devices with Marshmallow preinstalled.

All devices that comes out of the box with Marshmallow will have it.

Unfortunately
[HTC One A9] Newcron:
I'm just curious why the Nexus (6P, in this case that I read somewhere else) allows the user to bypass this 'pin at restart' and still have the lock screen protected with a pin. Unless what Kardon403 said below is the answer.

Frankly, I know very little of the technicality. What you explained makes sense, although I'm still curious why this other guy with a Nexus 6p can have the 'pin at restart' disabled. It may mean that he set his phone to not fully encrypted?

I think he was simply wondering why it's a big deal for me to not enter my pin on a restart, while I have pin protection setup and would have to enter my pin when I unlocked anyway, in which case as I answered above, no I actually don't have to enter my pin to unlock the screen, because of the finger print sensor.

Anyway, this isn't really a huge deal, as for me it's simply don't put the phone away immediately after restart, but wait a little bit until after I entered the PIN. I was just curious.
[HTC One A9] digitalcandy:
When I first setup my device it was asking for the passcode on boot. Now I can power off and back on and reboot and it doesn't prompt. Has the phone become decrypted?
[HTC One A9] Kardon403:
ArsTechnica on Marshmallow Encryption

I'm not sure exactly how full disk encryption is implemented, but it does appear that there is a way to disable the request for pin during boot:

https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/_-4Fblprw4M
[HTC One A9] Newcron:
Yes, those are the exact same instructions I found yesterday, but it doesn't work on this phone (One A9). When I reenabled the PIN, it didn't ask me whether I want a PIN at boot or not, the option simply says (something like) "enable PIN to unlock and boot".
[HTC One A9] Kardon403:
Ah interesting. If I had to guess, this is an attempt by HTC or Google to enforce full disk encryption on our device because the 617 supports ARMv8 accelerated AES decryption . From what I understand, full disk encryption has been planned for a while but is getting pushed back from OEM and users due to the performance hit on devices without any AES acceleration. Ensuring that PIN at startup is enabled is the only way I can see to truly secure the entire contents of your phone's storage. I would think disabling this would circumvent a significant layer of security, it may even be disabling the encryption of the OS partition.

It appears that last years Nexus 6 takes a significant performance hit with this feature enabled:

This is largely because the SD 805 in this device does not support ARMv8 (which offers dedicated instructions for AES encryption).
