Yes, and i cant find anything.
I believe it's something they use in the factory to test the phone (not kidding). Read that somewhere, but forgot where that was. (It deletes the factory test menu when you dial *#0*#)
Safe to remove and you will be able to do a factory reset afterwards, don't worry.

I'll guess i will just disable it in titanium backup to save ram, and don't delete it since i sometimes use the *#0*# to check the screen.
Thanks. :good:

If you delete FactoryTest.apk will not function properly lcdtest when you dial *#0*#.
for example "megacam" will give error.
If you want to work *#0*# dial lcdtest, not delete FactoryTest.apk.

Guys i need help.my little brother was playing with my phone and he somehow deleted the contact and phone apk. I checked on settings>applications>all to see if they were still there but they're not. I would really appreciate if someone can upload the stock ics dxlp7 phone and contact apk. I can't make a call or check contacts since it's gone.or if you could tell me how i can restore them
Have you tried downloading the rom and flashing it over?
Why don't you extract them from the system/app from the "yourromsname".zip and use root explorer and place them in system/app fix the permissions to match the others and reboot

It's not the only option. It's just AN option. You should be able to re-flash a non-wipe package of DXLP7, and you shouldn't lose anything other than root. But you're not rooted anyways.
EDIT to add: question though. If you're not rooted, how did he delete system files?
EDIT 2: I should also note that any other solution for you will probably require root.

Guess I'll have to download the ROM and.reflash it...
I think factory reset will only wipe user apps but won't recover system apps.
Here it goes, stock phone and contact apks from LP7
root needed
Even if he has the apks ... he's not rooted so how are you going to push to system?

Also, as stated how was these files deleted if your not rooted??
Just backup needed data and flash a rom.

None rooted phone with no way of exploring the system folders . Not possible to delete the APK only to delete the shortcut .
Factory reset will recover system apps as they are in the flashed saved firmware cache but it will delete data but that can be backed up .

I have esfile explore even though I'm not rooted. Maybe he somehow deleted stuff while messing around with esfile?
Maybe he is smarter than you?
He Rooted,deleted,unrooted
As for solution reflash rom as stated before

I am having exactly the same problem, whenever I copy a text in any appliction it force closes. I know hard reset will solve the issue but I dont want to hard reset my phone, is there any other solution for this ?
Just backup through kies and restore after factory reset. I tried to do everything I can without reset but nothing worked.

if I backup through kies, does it completely backup my device ? I mean games saved progess will be restored ?
also, are you sure that after restoring my device the problem will no longer be there ? restoring the device may restores the problem as well
The Subject of this Thread should be changed to make other users understand the problem which may helps in solving it

I also had the problem and a Factory Reset worked for me, now able to copy and paste without crashing apps.
Edit: Phone straight out of box, no rooting or custom roms etc. The problem will not persist after a reset.
If you attempt to backup your phone using Kies you can see what components are backed up. I don't think saved game data is.
If you want to backup your game data it's usually found in /sdcard/Android/data. Just copy the folders which you want to keep to your pc and replace once the factory reset is complete. Works for some games and not for others.
Edit: Nothing wrong with the thread title.

I have tried it, it works and the good thing it does not factory reset your phone.

You can try a normal factory reset in settings or CWM, or super wipe. In addition there is mega wipe which deletes anything, so be careful. You can find both flashbacks flashable zips via search function.
Also check if you backup some data, eg Swype lets you backup all settings and restores.

I registered my in gmail only for the phone for a year ago, i usually not use other mails than my hotmail account. I cant remember my password to the gmail account, also the security answer for gmail
You're boned in that case. Time to bite the bullet (or you could sit around for another week waiting for an answer that's not going to come & be without your phone).
Isn't there a way to use adb to delete the file that contains the pass code lock?
there is a backup email in the Gmail account restore, maybe u were Lucky to put ur Hotmail address there?
another way u can use:
go to recovery make full backup
Flash New rom
transfer backup to computer
locate What u need

Nope, this phone was never been "touched". I dont have an idea how to do it, can some one please send a link or something
oh boy....
try this.
Or ask Gmail support to help.
I mean, don't even consider doing a hard reset because of a forgotten password...............
Hmm this story sounding fishy... stolen?
Doesn't matter, it's an SII that needs help.
Anyways, if it is stolen, the owner will locate it via samsung dive (and now he's reseting the phone ).
Why the hell should the phone be stolen if i want the data ? It is important for me the data. I can send a pic of my phone and the conract i got from Telia.
I need to rescue the data of this phone, please help me to bypass it.

What type of data is it?
You should be able to just copy it from internal/external via USB, Just boot into recovery and mount USB via storage menu.
Hello, could you someone tell me what is gonna be deleted when apply Factory setting? I know the account,pictures, but do you know if this going to delete Notes as well? I sold my phone and I forgot to delete manually in Notes.

Factory reset takes you to the Original ROM's state, no settings, no apps.
SD card won't be touched in any way.
