TOTAL ERASE, <SCRATCH> function

[MAM]

Hello, maybe you put in a TOTAL ERASE function, to delete all data on the smartphone, and no longer make it to recover.

Why?

For explaining:

Maybe you want to sell your smartphone one day, or give it away .....

Or for the new launch of the Samartphone.

Only a hint from me.

Thanks for the suggestion MAM

Obviously we'd have to root the phone to be able to do this, but it should be possible.  I'll suggest it to the team.

Thanks for the forwarding of my proposal.

You're welcome

I also added a suggestion of my own to include the ability to wipe the device remotely that way if it is lost or stolen, you can log into the cloud from another device and wipe it to prevent whoever might get their hands on it from having access to your information.  That can be very important these days, especially with things like 2 factor authentication and the ability to make purchases using your phone to pay through Paypal, credit cards and even bank accounts without requiring physical access to any cards or IDs.

Yes, would be already if this function is recorded.

BTW, i think we have here a uggly forum BUG, your annswer is twice.

Yep, the forums were acting up when I posted my reply so it ended up getting posted twice.  I went ahead and deleted the extra one.

Thanks for clarifying.
