Hard Reset your Star Mobile Engage 7 HD and remove password pattern lock and gmail account

A starmobile tablet came into my work station and made a tutorial on how to hard reset. The table is the Star Mobile 7 HD.




Hard resetting / factory resetting your phone will solve the following issues:

1. If you forgot your pattern lock
2. If you forgot your gmail account
3. If you forgot your password
4. Apps that automatically force closing
5. Stuck in StarMobile Logo (sometimes does not work if the firmware is totally damage)


NOTE: Performing hard reset will erase your data.

To hard reset:

1. Turn off your tablet.

2. Press and hold the POWER + VOLUME UP (left button when you are holding the tablet vertically and the camera is on the left side). Until you see the Android Robot, then release all buttons.
3. Select wipe / factory reset, press Volume UP to navigate and press VOLUME DOWN to confirm your selection
4. Reboot your phone.


I hope this tutorial helps you.. If you have any question just drop a comment.

Sometimes you can still recover your phone just flash it again and your phone will boot up again.

How To Make Secure Your Facebook Account



1. Make sure only your Friends can see your Profile:



You wouldnt just go up to a stranger in the street and start telling them about your life, so why would you want them to see your Facebook profile?

Click on the cog icon that you see in the top right hand corner of the screen. Then click Privacy Settings.





Click Privacy - the third option down in the left hand pane.


Click Privacy






You are now in the Privacy Settings and Tools area of Facebook. From here you can control Who can see my stuff?

Privacy Settings and Tools



By editing Who can see your future posts? you will be able to choose exactly who gets to see your future updates.

friends only




Choose from:
  • Public (which obviously means everyone)
  • Friends
  • Only you
  • Custom (which allows you to limit some of your friends from seeing your posts)

Pick whats best for you, but make sure Public isnt selected. Whatever you choose will then become the default every time you post an update (though you still have the option of selectively changing this for each individual update you post in the future).

If you want to limit old posts that you may have made available to everyone or friends of friends then you can do this individually in the Activity Log, or you can choose to Limit the audience for old posts on your timeline. This will change everything youve ever posted to only be seen by your friends...


Limit past posts



2. Control who can contact you on Facebook:


The second part of the Privacy Settings and Tools section allows you to select who can contact you.

who can contact me



By default this is set up to allow friends and people you may know the opportunity to send you a message to your inbox.


If you want only friends to be able to contact you, you can increase the filtering on your inbox. Other messages will then be diverted to your other folder which you can access from your Messages screen.

Facebook contact




Additionally you can limit who can send you a friend request. By default, anyone can try to befriend you on Facebook, but if youd rather limit that a bit you can change it so only friends of your friends can add you as a friend:

who can look me up



3. Limit who can discover your profile based on your email address and/or telephone Number:


The final option from the Privacy Settings and Tools screen allows you to control who can find you using your email address or telephone number.


Under Who can look me up?, click Edit next to the line that says Who can look you up using the email address or telephone number you provided?



who can look me up



Change the setting to Friends of friends or Friends only. 


4. Set up login Notifications:


Facebook can send you an alert every time someone accesses your account from an unknown computer or other device, enabling you to receive a warning that someone has gained unauthorised access to your account.


Still under Privacy Settings, click the second option in the left hand pane.



Facebook security



Click Edit next to login notifications and choose whether you want to receive an email or a text message/push alert. Click on Save Changes. Login notifications are now active.



Login notifications



5. Turn on login Approvals:


Every time you access your account from an unknown browser you can get Facebook to send a code to your phone which you will then need to use to login.


Next to Login approvals, click Edit. Then tick the box to require a security code to access my account from unknown browsers. Click Save Changes



Facebook login approvals




Click Get Started. Facebook will then take you through the process of setting up login approvals.


Note, youll only need to use a code whenever you login from somewhere new so if you always use the same browser and phone you will not need to verify your identity every time. It does makes it much more difficult for a hacker to get into your account from elsewhere, so its a great thing to enable.

These are just a few tips that can help you safeguard your Facebook profile.

If you have any tips you wish to share, please leave them in the comments below.

Remove password pattern lock and even gmail account in your Cherry Mobile Superion Probe

Hi Yall

I thought this tablet does not have a way to hard reset or factory reset, but after 30 minutes I found a way to hard reset / factory reset it. Cherry Mobile Superion Probe has a FASTBOOT mode, you read it right FASTBOOT mode. You may never notice it but it has. After 30 minutes of fiddling the tablet I found the key to enter in the FASTBOOT mode.

I manage to wipe the tablet in WINDOWS first, but after rebooting the tablet it does not properly boot up it is just keep on rebooting in cherry mobile logo and android logo. What I did is that I tried to wipe it in Linux. And after rebooting and rebooted successfully into its normal state.



SO here is the procedure on how to factory reset your Cherry Mobile Superion Probe.

Download this file first and extract it
ADB Tools




NOTE: TRY WINDOWS MODE AT YOUR OWN RISK, AS I HAVE SUCCESSFULLY RECOVERED THE TABLET IN LINUX OS.


WINDOWS Mode

 1. Turn off your Tablet
2. Press Volume DOWN and Insert USB Cable
3. You will notice that it is stuck in Superion Probe Logo, that is the FASTBOOT mode.
4. Go to adb-fastboot-win folder that you downloaded and extracted
5. Open commandprompt.bat
6. Execute this command
fastboot -w
fastboot reboot

 
7. After rebooting cherry mobile boot tones. If you did not hear it, it will keep on rebooting but dont worry just head to Linux tutorial below.



LINUX Mode

First you need to update your package manager and download fastboot tools in android.

Here is how to download it
1. Open terminal emulator or press this ctrl + alt + T and it will open up Terminal, this is for Ubuntu, Lubuntu command that I have tried.

2. Then in terminal type the following command
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-tools-fastboot
3. After installing it enter FASTBOOT mode in your tablet.
4. Go to terminal again and execute this command
sudo fastboot -w
sudo fastboot reboot
 5. Wait for it to reboot, you will hear the cherry mobile boot power up tones. Smile you can now use your tablet :)
