[Q] Anti theft password locked. Recover phone. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Phone Details :
Intex Aqua y2
Android 4.4.2 Kitkat
Processor : 1.2 GHz dual core processor
So I used anti theft lock service that came with Kitkat inbuilt. I have lost the password since my other hard drive has crashed. I had it in my hard disk and now it cannot be recovered. I am in a deep trouble, while swapping my sim card the phone locked itself and it asked for password. I do not remember what it is because it didn't need to be put while using the same sim and it has been a long time. I read about it on lots of places that it cannot be recovered. I tried hard reset too, it still asks for the password. I found somewhere that, the only way to unlock it is by rooting the device then installing a custom ROM in it. But I have tried rooting this phone before too but no software could root it. I didn't find a guide on google too except for two that is in XDA forum too but never worked on any of my Intex devices. I need to use this phone since it's my primary phone. Please help me with this.
-My phone is Intex Aqua Y2 not cloud nor pro-
Thank you, I appreciate this forum as it's the first place I come to whenever I have problem with android devices.

[Q] Android device encryption - How to locate device if lost and phone is restarted

Hi everyone,
Its my first time posting posting here and hopefully im at the right place. I have recently decided to encrypt my device but a question popped up in my mind and couldnt find any answers.
If my device is encrypted and lost is there any way to locate my device if it has been restarted and whoever found is stuck at the unlock screen. From what I understand the password is requested before the phone is fully started and that worries me and find this pointless if there is no way to locate my device. Currently my phone is unlocked in case someone tries to put their SIM card in which will allow the device to notify me but that is pointless if once my device is restarted and stuck at the unlocking screen I cant locate it. Im fairly techy and open to any solutions even if it requires loading a custom rom.
Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S3 i747 on Rogers network with stock Firmware 4.3. Was previously rooted with TWRP recovery but restored to encrypt my device. Im waiting on a possible solution before I restore my phone to its previous state.
Thanks for all your help.

[Q] Rooting Alcatel One Touch 991

Hello,
I own an Alcatrl ot-991 and I need to root it. First about the phone:
It runs 2.36 stock gingerbread and is not rooted.
It has no more warranty and I need to root it to remove the sim lock.
By mistake I typed in my sim pin into the field where the sim unlock pin should go in too many times and now I get an error that the sim slot is permanently locked.
It's the old phone of my mum and I can't really afford another one right now.
Here is what I did already:
Installed official Alcatel USB drivers on my PC
Tried to root with srsroot (not at home will post logs later)
The programm started the adb server, recognized the phone, something about root kit 2 and then started trying out 4 roots, but none of them worked.
Also I tried to root it with gingerbreak directly from the phone, the programm started, I clicked on root device and a message popped up that said rooting device, this may take some minutes. Nothing happened even after letting it run for 30 minutes.
Please help me! I'm desperate. I basically walk around with an iPod touch by Alcatel.
Thanks in advance
Edit: I also started reading through the how to root Alcatel ot-991 thread in the forum, but the links are either dead or not helpful (like custom roms and stuff that I can only use after root)

Alcatel sim unlocking

Hello guys
I am using Alcatel One Touch 990 and after doing some stupid reset via clockwork mode, my phone became sim locked again.
I am not sure if I am writing this on a right place, but is there a possible way to unlock this model via some software or code generator for free, or all those things are fake and money wasting?
Thanks for your time.

[noob] need help with Chinese MTK based phone (E&L W5 or Kenxinda W5)

Hello,
I've bought a cheap (60 €) IP68 Chinese phone. It is sold as E&L W5 (ElongMobile). It is also known as Kenxinda W5 and declares itself as "Three Proofings W5".
This phone is based on Mediatek MT6735M SoC 64 bits Arm CPU. It runs a 6.01 Android version.
The bootloader is not locked (I've an option in developer's menu to unlock it).
The maker is not responding to my request for the standard Rom. (Kenxinda, nor E&L and I've tried to contact them in Chinese, thanks Google ).
I've tried to root it using all apk I could find or PC apps to no avail.
I can't either back-up the Rom whatever MTK tool I use (because some of them ask for a rooted phone and the others ask for a scatter file I can't find nor generate).
I I've looked at SuperSU ( http://www.supersu.com/ ) thinking I could install it using the recovery option of the phone. But it seems I'm too dumb because all I get is a message saying it is "an invalid OTA update missing scatter file"... ( the menu gives : recovery, fastboot or normal and I've tried "recovery"... ).
I would like to make a backup of the Rom in the phone, then modify the Rom to gain root access (or root the phone in another way ?) then install the "custom" Rom into the phone using SP flash tool.
I've read countless pages on a lot of sites, but I'm still stuck. So I would be very happy and grateful to get some pointer or how to for this 64bits CPU phones.
Many many thanks in advance for your help and advices.
I got the same phone and I'm looking for a root solution. I've seen that E&L made available a rooted ROM for W5S. I wonder if it would work on the W5 or brick it...
I'm also looking for a way to root this device. From some research it seems that it is equal to the Ginzzu rs71d, someone confirms?
EDIT: I finally rooted with Magisk and Miracle box loader

Samsung S5 Neo FRP Locked

Hello world,
I've just bought a second hand samsung S5 Neo (SM-G903F) and I've installed LineageOS on it, it worked very well... on the first boot. But when I did reboot, I've got the red message : Custom Binary blocked by FRP lock.
I read all the threads about this, and it seems like I must flash a stock ROM on the phone to resolve the problem, but I've tried several ROM with no success.
How can I find the specific ROM needed by the phone, or FRP unlock by another way ?
Any help appreciated...
This method is not for only steeled mobiles if you forget your password and google account you need to recover it then this will help you to improve your mobile phone.
Finally, I found the right stock ROM and ODIN did the job. Phone is unbricked. :good:
