Recover or Shred deleted files

Image associée

Deleted Files can still be recovered. As hackers, we might have saved important/ confidential files on an android device and anyone can recover this – It is death to our part. Therefore, we might need to shred this data.

How to recover deleted files? 

First, we must know how to recover deleted files. There are numbers of file recovery apps but I use “GT File Recovery.” It is so user friendly that I don’t even need to explain to you how to use it! It only requires Root access and that’s it!  

How to shred deleted files? 

Shredding files means deleting a file forever. For this tutorial, we will use Fshred. Download the app on Play Store and open the app. you will be asked on which storage space you wanted to wipe/shred. The Fshred creates a huge file to fill up your selected storage’s free space; if this happens, all deleted files will be impossible to be recovered. NOTE: Fshred does not harm anything on your device; it does not delete any existing files. Just make sure that your device is on its full energy before you start shredding.

Fixing bootloop (soft brick) 


What is bootloop?

 It is when your Android device is stuck on device’s boot a.k.a stuck at Logo problem. This often happens when you tampered something on your device’s system files. On some cases, there are unrooted Android devices that experience bootloop because of factory defect; but normally, bootloop happens only on rooted devices. Some people call this problem as soft brick, because the device is not totally bricked at all, it is half dead though…

What is the cause of Bootloop?

 “Boot Loop Causes. The core problem found in a boot loop is a miscommunication that prevents the Android operating system from completing its launch. These can be caused by corrupt app files, faulty installs, viruses, malware and broken system files.”

How to fix? 


Warning: This tutorial may not be compatible with all Android devices. 
For this tutorial, we are going to use SP flash Tool. SP Flash tool is an application you could find very useful in fixing extreme cases of a bricked MTK Android (e.g Tecno, Gionee, Infinix, Opsson, Innjoo etc) like the phone not coming on at all or not booting into recovery mode etc.

Requirements

 Your Android Smartphone should have at-least 40-50 percent of battery to perform the Flashing Process.
