Hello friends, this is my first post, I do it because, I got tired of looking for a solve to mcafee's lock in the LG D631 and no method served me, I could solved it thanks to an error of mcafee with the talkback here is the Explanation of how to solve it.
First of all, you have to arm yourself with patience but with a lot of it, well let's start.
1-First we turn on the cellphone after a hard reset and in the second that lasts mcafee to lock the screen we activate the talkback.
2-We put a sim card in the cell, I used one of at&t
3-When we turn on the cellphone, we touch the emergency call and then the mcafee will give an error, we touch Ok and this will close the obnoxious mcafee for about a second, letting us enter the cellphone
4-We'll start to touch the emergency call and the 911 to cause the error and thus to be able to start the cellular, bone, to leave the first configurations giving next and next until the cellular one initiates.
5-Once started the first thing we are going to look for is "setting / general and looking for accessibility" once there look for talkback, look for the options and takeout the check to "explore by touch" this is for talkback works with a single touch and do not have to select and touch two times
Note: All this is going to be done by touching emergencies and 911 to make them throw the error and give you ok to enter by the second that allows you.
6-After this you are going looking for an SD memory and download kingroot and unistaller pro, put it in that memory and put it in the cell phone.
7-Enter in the file explorer and install kingroot (Do not close it) and make root the cell phone.
8-After being root, enter the file explorer again and now install unistaller pro (open it) and open it immediately look for the obnoxious mcafee and uninstall it, reboot the cell phone and you are free to use the cellphone.
Tell me if this worked to you and give the thanks is for free

Nicely done! :good:
I started working on this device with McAfee and also noticed that there is the small window of time before McAfee opens up to be able to use the interface very briefly. I have another method that JUST almost works as well, except that I haven't been able to time it just right because talkback takes x2 taps to work. So definitely very, very nicely done that you were able to figure out how to make it only single tap and then from there finish the phone. Impressive

Ok i have a alltel touch pro, stock rom the only thing i have changed was the theme. i have diamond tweak and tf3d config and advance config tool all installed. For some reason I will pull my phone out of my pocket turn the screen on and the data will be on. I have weather, gps, and all other options that use data turned off unless i tell it to turn on. (or so i think)
Is there anything you guys know of that would be a reason for my data to be coming on automatically. it is killing my battery and it is becoming annoying to after having my screen off for an hour or so (sometimes more) to pull it out and the data be on for no reason.
any help please?
thanks
Jeff
I also had the same problem. My phone did the exactly same thing, but since I have a notification on my phone on when this would occur it I would press and hold the end key to terminate the data.
What I did to get rid of it was first backed up all of contacts, sms, etc..
and did a hard reset.
Got rid of all of the extras I had installed.
And reinstalled only the things that I needed.
for example net.3.5 tf3d config, personalizer.
If you don't have a back up program (make sure you have a sim card as when you back up you'll be backing it up into your sim) use PPCPimBackup.exe which you could find through google.
I'm still a noob to ppcs and my touch pro, but if you have any questions on how to do the following just let me know.
If you download advanced config tool you can set the data connection to turn off automatically. There are also a ton of other options that will help optimize your phone and save battery
Do you have an E-mail account set up on your device? If so, you may have set it to connect every so often. One other thing that comes to mind would be if the QuickGPS app needs to update the certificates, it will connect to the internet.
You may want to get a custom rom in your device. This will get rid of a lot of junk...
Good luck!
Hello, my name is Calin and this is my first post on this forum. Even though I have been reading this forum since I bought my galaxy s3 (don't think at me as a regular user, I only visit this forum when I have a problem, since my device is not rooted many of the things aren't useful for me around here).
As a regular user as I am, I didn't have to post a new thread to find a solution to my problem, but this time it seems that I just have to. Before I proceed I just have to say that it drives me crazy, the fact that I don't know what the problem MIGHT (not is) be. I am clueless.
In the past 1-2 weeks I haven't installed any new app, from google play or from internet (.apk, yes I did this with few of the apps). Even though I have installed apps with an .apk installer (from the market) I have always scanned the file on my pc, and then after I installed it, AVG scanned it on the phone too.
Today, I was browsing the internet (9gag to be more specific), one of my daily/hourly routine. If it matters, I was in the bank and I had a strong network signal (I wasn't using wi-fi). Suddenly, after a few minutes of browsing my phone didn't recognize my sim and asked for a reboot. I clicked on continue (to reboot). After it rebooted (note that I had a lock screen numeric password: 3258) my lock screen password changed from a numeric one to a letter based one, which, ofcourse, I have no idea which is. I have tried all the passwords that came into my mind, I thought it may have sync with some of my google accounts. It didn't. I have tried to enter 3258 password (I can enter numbers too). It didn't work.
Even if it is locked, it's just some kind of screen lock because I can see apps running on background (like 3g watch dog) and I can receive calls (can answer them but I can't call back) and messages (can't read them). The only things that I can do with my phone right now are: Switch Airplane Mode: On and Off, activate or deactivate mobile data, switch from silent to vibrate or sound and ofcourse, reboot and turn off my phone.
I have tried every possible thing I could've tried to make this work, like removing the sim. It all seems to be a software problem.
Note that I don't wanna root my device in order to solve this. Thank you.
Guys! I need help please! I have an Lg Optimus F3, and today early in the morning i downloaded some random game to play, don't remember the name, but it kinda froze my phone, so i hit the home key, and then all these messages popped up saying, "This application has stopped working" for every single app.
Then, my phone turned off, and now every time i try to turn it on it takes like 30 minutes to show the LG logo, then after another 15 or so eventually loads the actual boat up menu, and after about another 5 loads the home screen.
Settings are also being stupid. I try to go into Security and they force close. And the home screen won't load.
I've only had it since like september, so it's too early for a new phone.
I did a factory reset when it wouldn't turn on, so now it's in stock, just like when i first got it. But it still won't work.
Anyone have any suggestions please? I just want it to boot up fast, and start working like normal again.

You will have to flash a kdz (stock firmware) file via LG Flash tool (R&D Test Tool). You will find the needed informations HERE.
Also, if you aren't sure what the name of it is, you should be able to go to the Play Store via any browser and log in and look at your apps. You should be able to tell from there. This might not help you get your phone running again, but if you let others know you had trouble with it, it might be helpful to others.

Thanks for the help guys. Didn't work thought. I just contacted LG, and they told me to send in the phone, and they should be able to fix it. Thank you though.
What didn't work?
long time lurker, first time poster. someone gave me his broken(?) Lenovo K30-w phone to fix (why?).
i'm looking for a way to load a ROM onto his phone, but via a Mac/PC down a USB, because...
basically, for the first month it was all good, but then the phone started installing apps/games/"virus removers"/etc of its own volition, some would run up his data bills, other randomly disable the WiFi/data etc. I unticked the "install from other locations" thing, but every time it re-ticks itself. i managed to get Malwarebytes installed, which informs me there is 60+ bits of malware on it, but before i can get around to removing it or manually deleting the file in system browser, it detects what i'm trying to do and shuts me down.
so basically, the virus(es) prevent me doing anything that involves downloading an app or doing anything on the phone side that involves WiFi, as it kills the window i'm on, and replaces it with a fake scanner, an app/game or pron.
Also stuck in the same position !
Any help with this ?
Thx

Hello, I cannot access my phone at all and it is driving me insane
Some context, a lot of Moto X Play phones have this thing where once the internal storage gets full, the phone goes crazy, the navigation buttons don't work, you can't swipe down for the notification bar, you can't receive or make calls.
I read of a fix that involved using Nova launcher, and using the Activities widget to link SetupWizardTestActivity which opens the Set up wizard and usually fixes the phone
However I've stupidly let my phone get full again and this method has stopped working for me. I am completely stuck in the phone 'welcome' setup loop and cannot get into my phone at all.
What happens is I press next once selecting my language, then I get onto the Wifi setup page which can only be skipped if you have a mobile connection working. This setup process cannot be done with no connection. If I press skip/have a SIM in, it gives me the privacy page which I accept, then puts me on the Add your Google account page. Now if I type in my account, it tells me 'This account already exists on your device'. If I try to make a new one, it leads me through some pages and eventually tells me I must sign in with the account I used when I first set up the phone, which it does not let me.
If I skip the Google account setup page, it just loops me back onto the Privacy page.
I've tried it in safe mode, I've tried wiping the cache partition, I'm not factory resetting the phone.
Thanks to whoever can help me.

Why don't you take a backup using adb? After that you can factory reset your phone.
Use a external SD card as your default write disk after reset.
