Whenever I type a password and connect to a WiFi network , the password is forgotten as soon as I turnoff WiFi. I tried looking it up and some people said it has something to do with efs . If it's corrupted, how do I fix it? And if there's an another solution , your help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Is your phone set up to backup data to Google? In other words, is the backup option in Settings enabled and an account selected?
If not, set it up. Also delete cache and data from Google Backup Transport and restart your phone.

My today screen now has 8 accounts on it all showing unread messages although i can only open one of them. I don't know how to get rid of them besides a hard rest which i dont want to do.
Surely there must be some solution as I will run out or screen if it happens any more
Hi,
Had exactly the same issue.
The problem for me was restoring the backup file created by Sprite.
I resolved my issue by not restoring the messaging dB's - and everything was OK - The reverse is make a backup but not the messaging dB's then restore.
Hope this helps somewhat.

Hi After doing some googling I found a tool that might help for some people but it didnt for me. someone else might ba able to shed some light
1) use the DBViewSP editor to go to cemail.vol
2) under that go to 'pmailNamedProps' and select it to edit the values
3) scroll down to the very last 2 values, which should be called 'UnreadCou...'
4) delete them
5) restart
Please if you do do this make a backup of your .vol file 'just in case'!

After trying to désimlocké my HTC SPV M650, the latter to restart and now no longer recognizes my password at startup.
Can you help me to disable this password (or alternative) without losing my data.
Thank you in advance.
well maybe you can get the data by active synce.. if you made it to remember the password ..maybe it will don't ask for it. then take your wanted data and hard reset it.
JUST a suggestion
Thank you for your suggestion.
If I understand you suggest using active sync? But the problem is precisely that it is impossible to connect to HTC via Active sync because it is locked by password.
Nobody else can help me please?
By Pass the Password on T-Mobile MDA Compact iii and Artemis
YOu have to do a hard reset. You will lose all your data, but upon reformat, you will have the option to not have a password. From what I read, this is a better way to go while setting up.
Yes I understand that if I make a Hard-reset, I lose all my data! That is why I try another method.
for your personal data you can use PIMBackup, download via gprs or wifi... other data can be moved to storagecard
or am I saying impossible things for you?

Hi,
Yesterday I lock my phone with a pattern so I can get more "safe". But now I forgotten the pattern and I don't have data or wifi connection turn on on the phone.
I read that the best option is install a new ROM without wipe data in order to I can recover all phone data (because don't have SD Card, only a virtual SD Card that I create previous). If I made a hard reset is this virtual card remains?
If I need a ROM, how can I copy it into the phone? Plugging the phone on computer I can't access data maybe because the debug option or mass device is turn off.
Any suggestion?

i dunno, this story sounds fishy. You want to get past a lock screen that you dont know the pattern, you want to be sure u get all the data off it. it also cannot connect to any networks. sounds like its a stolen phone
What I'm telling is true and the phone wasn't stolen at all! I put a pattern that passes on all boarder points, but I don't remember where exactly point I started drag. I have more 3 attempts, but I now that after them, if I wrong I will need a solution.
After the final attempt a button will appear that says Forgot pattern? At that point you will need to enter the google account and password associated with that phone. This should close this topic. Of course if you do not know that info then we can safely assume this phone was found or stolen.
The phone is mine. The problem is that by default I have data and wifi turn off. If I can turn on of them on I will login into my google account, of course. If you know how, it will solve the problem.
open up the lock screen while it shows the pattern, hold down the power button and turn off airplane mode

The airplane mode is off. The problem is that I can't access the settings to turn on the data or wifi.
Your problem is quite unusual as very few ever turn off data AND wifi. You may have no choice but to call your carrier for help or to perform a hard reset and lose all data.
I tried changing my wifi mac address on my g3 using the Mac Spoofer (app) and it broke my wifi and now it wont turn on.
I still have my original mac address, tried changing it back on the same app and it didn't work.
I tried other apps but they won't even open because they can't detect my mac address.
Under wifi settings, Mac is shown as unavailable.
Can anyone help me to change it back?
Thanks!
This is the app that ruined my life
I fixed it! Just went to data/misc/wifi and deleted everything in it!
help
I did the same thing with the same app. Can you explain a little where you went data/misc/wifi. I tried file manager but can't get there. Thanks

/data is a system mount, you'll need to root the phone.
how to root my phone ?
Earlier in OnePlus 3 days...
I have set up fingerprints to unlock my device with pattern lock.
Then ...
I had deleted ... The below mentioned files from data/system...
1. locksettings.db
2. locksettings.db-shm
3. locksettings.db-wal
4. gatekeeper.password.key
5. gatekeeper.pattern.key
Because i dont want any security on my phone but i want my fingerprints to unlock my device very quickly and after removed the above mentioned files, i did that no more secure lockscreen and fingerprints working fine.
Now... In 'OnePlus 5T'...
I have set-ups my fingerprints to unlock my device with pattern lock.
Then ...
I had deleted ... The below mentioned files from data/system...
1. locksettings.db
2. locksettings.db-shm
3. locksettings.db-wal
4. gatekeeper.password.key
5. gatekeeper.pattern.key
As i don't want any security in my phone because my family need my Phone sometimes so i want swipe up to unlock my phone and fingerprints to unlock my device very quickly but as in OnePlus 3 it was working very fine but in 'OnePlus 5T' it is not working... When i reboot my phone it is showing blank screen, no home screen only wallpaper is showing.
When i get back into TWRP recovery (Blu_Spark) it is asking me a password to unlock modification and i have deleted the lockscreen security files already though.
Any solution?
I know many of you will saying decrypt your phone.
So, i have already format data and wipe internal storage.
Still when i followed the above steps, it still ask me a password in TWRP recovery.
How to solve that issue?
Note: Please Do Not Suggest to me to entered family's member fingerprints or tell them the password or pattern as i simply mentioned above what i want.
The default password in TWRP is "default_password" (without quotation marks). You could try that...

Thank you for the reply.
I have not tried that password but i will soon... any idea about the above first issue? Home screen is not showing anything, only showing Wallpaper of the phone?
Can someone let me know how to find the password ?
The default one (default_password) seems to not be working
Using bluespark TWRP by the way and stock Oxygen OS with fingerprint password
Not sure if the data partition is encrypted, but it sure does look like it as in TWRP file manager I can not browse in folders in sdcard properly since they folder names are hashed
Edit:
Nevermind
Removed the fingerprint and data is no longer encrypted
This is a weird one and I would still like to know how to bypass it by not always removing the fingerprint if possible
So if someone knows, feel free to reply back

I have the exact same issue!! I deleted the 5 keys and I can only see the wallpaper and it doesn't allow me to set a new pin. TWRP is asking me for a password that I never set. Did you ever figure out how to solve the problem? I would like to figure out how to decrypt my data before having to do a reformat... :crying:

Well, this issue only appear when you have encrypted device...
So, to get ride of this situation again... Just format data with yes command and always flash no-vrrity zip to stay decrypt now you can delete these 5 files and stay decrypted and you can use your phone without any issues.

That will wipe my entire internal drive as well right? I don't mind using my phone encrypted, but I'd just want to get past the encryption now so that I can access and backup my files before flashing or formatting.

Yes! you are right, formatting data can format your entire storage including internal storage but that will be happens only once..... Install TWRP recovery by codeworkx universal and format data, that will be erase the entire storage for sure but once you done with that... copy and paste Oxygen OS ROM file along with No-verity.zip file...
first flash ROM then flash No-verity.zip so you can stay decrypted ever.
Flashing no-verity.zip all the time in every rom at last is the best practice to stay decrypted.

Ah I see... the problem is that I don't have any backup of my files right now. So even if I format only once, my entire storage will be forever gone.
Did you figure out how to solve the problem of "when i reboot my phone it is showing blank screen, no home screen only wallpaper is showing" without reformatting?

You have to erase the entire storage that is the only solution... trust me i have faces this issue several times when my phone as not decrypted and i lost my entire storage almost 10 times
If you have a fingerprint set, OR a pin or password, your TWRP pass is ALWAYS the same as your phone pin or pass Just tried it on mine.

Unfortunately no. I had to format in the end and lose 9 months of photos, data, etc :crying:.
Now I know not to mess with the lockscreen keys because the newer android versions (i think 6.0 and over) has a security patch to prevent access to phone even if you delete the keys. From now on, if your touchscreen doesn't work then your best bet is to boot into TWRP, plug in a mouse via OTG cable and try to flash a new rom, which should preserve your internal drive data.

Dammit I was afraid of that
I tried doing a factory reset (leaving internal storage) but now the phone gets stuck on the Welcome screen "One sec.."
My internal storage is encrypted so all the folders are hashed and I can't even recover any backups I had in the phone. ADB doesn't want to detect the device while it's in TWRP so I can't sideload adb. My only hope is to buy an OTG adapter today, put my latest twrp backup on a flashdrive, and hope I can recover that way.
Nope. The OTG adapter works but TWRP can recovery everything except data.. gives an error "extractTarFork() process ended with ERROR: 255" when I try. Sighhh

You deleted the lockscreen keys from the OP right? If so, I don't think an OTG adapter would help. Because once you deleted the password then it will default to TWRP's password but it doesn't exist? However, if you never deleted the keys and can access TWRP's screen to enter your password then you should be able to decrypt and extract your backup. I had a pattern password and you can use the mouse connected to OTG cable to draw your pattern to unlock.
I'm actually having the same touchscreen issue on my device again... but the screen would randomly work. So I am waiting for it to start working before I reflash.

So, TWRP asking password because our Device is encrypted but when i erase the internal storage and decrypt the device then problem got solved because encryption is a culprit here.
