Hey everyone,
I've run into an interesting problem. One of my friend's at work asked me for help with wiping her Zoom Wifi. She tried doing the factory reset via the Backup&Reset in the settings but it does not wipe the device. The system indicates that everything wiped successfully, but after a reboot, nothing has actually been wiped.
So I decided to bring out the hammer. This is a stock device so I plugged into into my computer, enabled ADB debugging, rebooted to fastboot and then did a fastboot oem unlock.
The device warned me about unlocking, etc. I did the unlock. Then rebooted. Still nothing, all of her stuff is still on the device.
A little annoyed, I went and downloaded the stock images for this device.
Rebooted into fastboot and then did:
fastboot flash (system/boot/recovery/userdata)
fastboot erase (cache/userdata)
fastboot oem (lock/unlock)
All the commands executed successfully, there were no errors at any stage.
after all that, all her data/apps are still on the device. Any suggestions on how I should proceed?
Also a really odd thing I noticed was that I have to enable adb debugging every time after a reboot. Even if I dont change anything, enable debugging and reboot, i have to re-enable. It's as if nothing I do is actually getting saved.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
