- Permanently Erase All Data on Android Phone
Whether you are selling your smartphone or giving it away, its important that you secure erase/delete all the data on the mobile phone to stop anyone recovering data on that phone. Remember, all of your sensitive data can be recovered using data recovery software, if you do not permanently secure erase all the data. Important: Factory reset does not erase all of your data.

1. Backup Data
2. Use Shreddit or other data eraser software, use (Erase Full Storage) (optional after run Wipe Empty Space)
3. Remove any accounts your signed into (example Google)
4. Optional: Encrypt the phone

I think it will work for me but is there anyone who tried any data recovery app after this method and got no data.... If so, then this man deserves all the love and blessings.... 😢
Thank you, Brian. Just purchased a new phone and Samsung bought my old phone. I was worried about my data being exposed but your video assures me it won't be.
Have a relaxing time Brian,Enjoy..All The Best
Thank you Sir, Your narratives are perfect and detailed. Salute!
Your timing is perfect. I am getting a new android phone today and trading in my old one. Thank you Brian.
You're welcome! Glad I could help
Same here
thank you been waiting on this one great video...! 😀
You're welcome just enjoying a cold beer and plenty of sun 🌞
@@Britec09 enjoy you deserve it...! 🌞🍻
Thanks a lot for this informative video and now i can permanently delete any data on my phone.
Awesome Brian, thanks!
You're welcome!
Thanks sir it was very helpful for my Samsung as50s
Nice, thanks Brian. 👍
Thanks, nick
Good to see your Phone tips, as well as tips for compuers.
I figured everyone has a phone so I will probably make some more tutorials on phone stuff
I second a previous comment here,
Great upload, extremely useful mate thanks.👍
You're welcome!
Thanks! I followed all the steps then did a factory reset to add another layer of protection. Does Samsung already encrypt data and if not, which programs have the best privacy policies in jurisdictions like California or the EU with effective privacy laws such as CCPA and EU GDPR?
Thank you!
Hi, great content. Does this method also permanently delete all files in your secure folder? And make it unrecoverable?
Curious if running this for a few dozen passes would damage a phones onboard storage chip. As far as I know drives of any kind have a max TBW (Terebites written) before they corrupt and cause issues.
Great work Thank you
Thanks
Thank you for the info ..this video was helpful
What app do you use to encrypt all the data ?
I believe he used ShredIt to encrypt. Tried to answer this with a short (new feature) but couldn't get it to work
thank you man
Thank you
Great upload, thank you!
Thanks!
💖💖💖 Thank You! 🌹🌹🌹
Thanks for a nice comment. I really appreciate it
Hi.. can all these methods mentioned be done on a custom rooted rom or should I flash the original rom first..?
Thank you.
Great content thanks
Thanks for watching. Don't forget to hit the subscribe button. I'd appreciate the support
Amazing dude!
Thanks!
Hey Brian unfortunately I seen ur video after I factory reset my phone with my original data in it... my question is can I still do the same thing u did and will it work or its too late now because I already reset my phone ?
What if you did not know any of this and have already done the factory reset thinking that would remove all of you data from the old phone. Can you still securely erase your data?
Question - if you delete data by regular delete functionality on Android device then use the German 7 pass method for Empty Free Space using Shreddit will that mean the deleted data is now untraceable as it has been overwritten in empty space?
Is it ok that I've done a factory reset first and then a shreddit
Should we delete all accounts before encryption including samsung account or excluding samsung account
Encryption is compulsory after shred it.. or its an another option?
Is this program anti forensics? If yes, there any program for iphone?
Does the factory reset email confirm that the phone has gotten the erase request and has been sucessfully erased?
Does shreddit work after i already made a factory reset?
Very good video of how to erase all your data. My Question is this. How you back up your data to a flash drive or to an external hard drive? thanks for your help.
Gene connect your device to a PC via a USB cable and browse then drag all you want to a folder you created. You could also upload to a cloud account.
@@adyback7994 Thanks for information.
Shreddit data easer ky bd recet factory krny ky bd recovery nhi hoga???
only do it on SD card if you use this to erase free space on your phone storage after time it will upset your phone it will start opening up apts & not being responsive etc
How do I keep information on my new phone when deleting from my old phone? I accidentally deleted my contacts from my new one, when I deleted them from my old one. Sue
Good video.
Cheers Timster
Have you ever tried Ishredder?
When i use such technique can i recover data,If i will use any security software to recover data by defence
I did factory reset then saw this video. Can I use Shredded after Factory Reset? Will it be effective or useless?
Hit me up pls if you found out, I did the same thing
Here is my question. I have to transfer my data on. my old phone to my new phone and then send the old phone back to the carrier.
I am going to be using Samsung Smart Switch to do the transfer instead of using my Google account to transfer the data.
now do I do the data erasing on the old phone after I transfer the data?
the reason why I ask is because I noticed you said to backup the data before doing the erasing.
my last question is since I am sending the old phone back to the carrier can I still use the encryption method instead of the data erasing method or does it not matter.
I know the carrier still need to access the phone and I don't know of the encryption method bocls anyone from able to use the phone etc...
Cheers!
Cool!
Thanks!
How about already deleted private videos it will works too?
is that necessary for iphone too
Hi what happens if l go to settings and delete data in cloud
Is running running "Wipe data/factory reset" from Android Recovery the same thing as "Factory data reset" from within the OS? I have had any success finding definitive information on that.
Factory data reset is the same as factory reset
@@Britec09 Thank you for clearing that up.
Can I use this app after restore factory?
Excellent, if you know of a way to legally remove the bloatware apps without jailbreaking the device it would be truly appreciated. I absolutely hate that we all pay a lot of money for these devices and can't control the extra apps they put on them. Have a wonderful day and thank you for the video. :-)
I second that!
I will make a video on that when I get home from my holiday
@@Britec09 thank you so very much that is truly appreciated. Have a wonderful holiday. :-)
@@Zeropatience1There's a program called universal debloater for PC a you have to do i plugin your Android device to your PC and the universal debloater will allow you to delete bloatware from your Android device
so you mean to do factory reset then i must use shreddit?or first i use shreddit then factory reset?
If you do a factory reset first, you have to still sign into your Google account on the phone. Otherwise, you can not download Shreddit from the Play store. I bought a used phone from eBay, which I am returning. I did a reset, but the phone is still in my Google account. I found this video while searching how to remove the device from my Google account. Even after signing out of Google account on the phone, it is still listed as a trusted device. So, I'm trying this app, and I'll go from there.
Will it delete my all gigabyte's??
can we use shreddit after factory reset and then again factory reset?
i did that,can my phone be recovered ?
Pls hit me up if you found a answer I did the same thing

Great! How to encrypt a Redmi 10?
Can this software automatically view my deleted photos videos? How safe is it?
Hi. Great video. Just had a question. I got an android tablet a few days ago but decided to return it for reasons. I already signed into some accounts and downloaded some apps which i have signed out of and uninstalled. From what i could tell, the device was encrypted by default as i don't think there were any options for me to encrypt data. If it was encrypted, would i need to use shreddit? I've already factory reset the tablet after thinking it was encrypted but now i'm anxious that I forgot something important. Just wondering if you could help. Thanks.
It's unlikely that that device was encrypted by default. So your data is recoverable even after factory reset
@@Britec09 So what would you recommend I do now? It's to be returned soon. All i saw under encryption was 'encrypted' and there was nothing else i could do apart from 'credentials'.
Brian would this cover any software that say the police would use to recover data? Not that I have anything to hide but some watching this video would be very interested to know.
Take a sledge hammer ( 12 lbs ) will be fine and after that get a torch Oxyacetylene should work fine😇
No one can ever recover that for you
@@stewbeef3464 That's great! LOLOL!
Factory reset works too
Data is still recoverable after factory reset
Shreddit doesnt really work! I filmed some videos and took photos for test purposes. Even after a few runs of Shreddit i could still see all photos and videos
me too
Whats the best way then?
Is this necessary if I'm doing factory reset anyways? Thanks
Depends how much you value your personal data like photos and other personal information. Factory reset does not wipe these completely from the drive. People can use data recovery software to recover these images
Sir does this app completely erase all the data? Did you try any data recovery app and found no data there?
Please answer, it's very important to me
@@Britec09
Sir can delete specific app data
I have an old Samsung phone, is doing a Full Data Reset enough to erase and clean everything without downloading Shreddit?
@@youtu-5 Thank you.
Why do I need to verify my account with a Credit Card?
How can i encrypt the phone?
Is it possible to delete the old updates on an android phone? These updates are filling up my space on the phone. Is it possible to clear some of those updates out?
Reset your phone to factory defaults
@@Britec09 If I back the phone up and restore so I have all my apps and contacts, will that also restore all those updates? Thanks for the answer.
Hi, can i just use wipe empty space, incase i just want to permanently remove a certain part only instead of full formating my phone?
when i try to Erase Full Storage, i get "write permissions required for /storage/enulated/0, root the device or refer to online help" and i get stuck at this point. any ideas? note the sim card and data have already been transferred to another phone.
You need to turn on storage permissions for Shreddit via the app settings. I had the problem too.
What about simply forcing a change of the encryption key and calling it a day?
Like I said in a video you can encrypt the phone and then factory reset it if you wish. This way the data cannot be recovered.
how to do that please tell
@@Britec09 can you do a tutorial for that
What's the difference between random filler and zero filler
Can someone tell me how to encrypt a one plus?
How do i encrypt a s21 ultra
I tried this and now my phone is not starting up
Can we reactivate geniune windows from local windows
Yes
That's all OK, but my old phone has no service, so I can;t download anything. Your advice is for active phones.
Use wifi.
It will delete all data forever and you can't recover them on any device? Or they are deleted on this phone but data still exist like email?
If it's on the internet or cloud, it still exists. Wiping using this method will make it unrecoverable.
This doesnt remove the apps does it
Removes everything.
Will this unlock?
It's always advisable to unlock your phone before selling it. It's worth more money. If it's unlocked, you can contact your carrier and they will unlock your phone
Not effective if you don't have root
Encrypting the drive or secure erase the drive is effective
How
Impressive Work. 😂😂
Thanks for watching and don't forget to hit the subscribe button. Thanks!
@@Britec09 Dear I already subscribed you thenks.
I'm searching an app to do a backup of all my data.
Plenty of free backup solutions out there
sir i was only askin a NAME!!!!of virus!! ? clean up what come up with IN adwcleaner ( i had FULL of avira pro BUT KEEP COMEIN UP WITH SAME VIRUS so took it off sir h a gd 1 all
Ok deleted data now what😂
Should I do this if I buy a used phone too? Might wanna protect the original user. I am probably "not" tempted to dig after old data. xD
Never trust anyone or even my family.
That is a valid point. Who knows what's been on that phone previously. Might be wise to erase the data on there before you give it to the person you bought it for
Is it safe from the police tho 😂
interesting video. I don't have a phone. But now I'll know how to wipe other people's phones for a prank. 😂
Don't have a phone. How do you call people to send a carrier? Pigeon to send you a messages lol
@@Britec09 That's not a problem. I have no one to call.
Too much talking!!
Hi Britec09, however the reviews on google play is negative, what do you say?

Good bye boys
