If you root an android phone does this also unlock it from a network?  I.e. say you had a moto g locked to the vodafone network, and then you rooted the phone, would it then be unlocked from vodafone?

I'm a bit confused about this topic. I have a T-Mobile myTouch 3G which I've recently replaced with a Nexus One so it's kind of standing there. I was contemplating rooting the myTouch and installing an alternative ROM but I also wanted to unlock it so it can be used with other carriers.  Now, the real questions:  When rooting and installing a custom ROM, will that also unlock the phone so it can be used with other carriers? Or is that a baseband feature?

I have tried through the Google Play store and it does not seem possible from there, but does anyone know if it is possible to remove an application remotely?   In other words, if I do not have direct access to my phone, can I make use of some website, app or service to uninstall an app without being able to interact with the phone directly.

A couple years ago, it was easy to root any device: Install KingRoot, KingoRoot, or a similar app, hit the large ROOT button, and let it do the rest. After 5 minutes or so, a green "Root Succeeded!" prompt will pop up, and we can choose to keep the root app, or uninstall it and install a clean root manager app like SuperSU/Superuser.  How do they work? Why aren't they working anymore? And if they work, should I use them or not?

Whatsapp, Keeping the number on the new phone but without the old sim card. Ok the situation is I love my old number and to be honest don't want to ask everybody to change my number again and again. But I do not have the old sim card, and that bums me out. If there is any way to achieve this?

Hi I'm using Moto X style and most the space consuming apps are stock Google one which I basically don't use at all. Is there a way to remove them without rooting the device. I know it's an hard ask but I'm just taking a chance here ?

Do you know if there is an Ubuntu program (possibly a Nautilus plugin) to transfer files from/to an Android device?  What is my mind is a program which does adb push, adb pull, and adb shell ls in the background and has a GUI.  Note that ADB allows for broader filesystem access than MTP and UMS.

I realize this is a long shot, but my phone was lost or stolen a few hours ago.  At the time it was stolen, I didn't have any specific applications installed to track it or wipe the data. So... my bad. I'm hoping the fact that I have a pattern lock will at least prevent anyone from accessing my data.  My question is, do I have any options for tracking or data wipe after the fact? (I'm more interested in tracking.)  Note: I have read similar questions, but unless I'm mistaken, they all address the question in terms of preparation before losing the phone. I'm asking about fallback options after losing the phone.

Whenever I follow a root guide, I see a link to super su and twrp files. Is this super su and twrp file the same file for all phones or is there a different super su for each phone? Also, if it exists for each phone, is it rom specific? Do I need a seperate super su file for cm 13 and stock rom on the same phone?

I'm using Whatspp on a Moto G (1st Gen) mobile. Today I've accidentally sent a message to my friend while my mobile data was in off mode. I have deleted that message immediately. Now will the message be delivered to my friend if i turn on the mobile data?

I have two phones, the  and , both using Android 2.1, and I intend to sell them in the near future.  Before selling (just like before selling a HDD), I want to wipe all the personal DATA from the phones.   Question: Does a "factory reset" (from the Android phones "menu") surely wipe all the personal data? Or will there be something left to use? (ex.: contact list, Gmail password, etc.?)

There are a lot of system apps in my mobile that I do not use, and have no intention of ever using. I know that is is possible to , but is it possible without root?  Are there any non-root options that will help me to deal with unwanted system applications?

A person at a phone store reset all the contents of my Motorola Moto G Android phone, and I did not give them permission to do so. I had many important pictures and videos, but the even more important thing were the audio recordings I had created.  Is there ANY WAY to recover this data? I know it was reset, but I'm very stressed and would appreciate a pointer of a way to effectively recover some or all of the data without comprising it in the process. I am not using the phone, and had shut it off entirely. I'm aware that the more you use it, the more it overwrites the data. I NEVER had a backup, dumb, I know.  Thank you folks!  **Edit: I recovered most of my photos and videos just now through Google+, most of it was synced! But how can I recover my voice recordings ? That's what's most important to me. I used this app.   Unfortunately, my phone model never supported SD cards, so there's nothing there.

If my phone was ever lost or stolen, my only real concern is data and apps associated with my Google account, such as my Gmail, the ability to purchase apps from the Market, and maybe Picasa albums.    Is there a way to block access to these Google associated programs if I change my password or do something else with my account?    I would also be interested in any solution that remotely wipes my Google data.  I know remote wiping questions have been asked before, but I feel that my question is a little more broad, in the sense of overall protection of data in which wiping is a possible answer.  FYI, I'm running a Gingerbread-based ROM on my Samsung Galaxy S (AT&amp;T Captivate).

I lost my Android phone, but my WhatsApp is still on. How I can stop someone who is using it?  I don't have the SIM with me. The people who found it is using my WhatsApp account. When they went online, I tried to talk but they did no reply.

As the title says, if I reset my rooted nexus 4 to factory settings will it be unrooted relocked and superuser uninstalled?

I've tried almost any method to root my ASUS ZenFone Live, but no one seems to work. Also I only need root, no unlocked bootloader (don't want to wipe data) or custom recovery (not essential ATM).

I rooted my Dream/G1 last night and finally gave up on modding it (not for good mind you, but for the moment) and opted instead to just restore it to factory settings via Settings &gt; SD card &amp; phone storage &gt; Factory data reset, which did solve all the problems I was having with multitasking (and not being able to answer it, etc.)  Curiously, I still seem to have root on the phone, despite having reset it. I'd love to understand how that is possible! Superuser Permissions is the only non-stock app still on the phone, and I'm still able to use su to gain root privileges from adb shell. Is this because BusyBox installs to my SD Card?  My phone works just fine, so this is hardly critical, but the whole exercise was/is about knowing my phone better and this is most def. a mystery. Thanks!
