siousxiesue Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I want to pass on my old android phone to a friend now I've upgraded (he is unemployed) I can go through the phone and uninstall apps but what else to do to wipe it clean of any trace of me?

JohnL Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Be careful if you have confidential stuff - like a PC data is recoverable unless you wipe it (write over it).Some sites just recommend you encrypt it to make any data recovery worthless or use a data eraser tool if you really want to be safe..
