Installing apps on a gabb phone Z2?

If anybody is a good coder, or rich, we could have someone code something to disable the restrictions on the autofill. That would make this a lot simpler
I honestly think flashing is too risky. For some it's worked, but I think we should just try and unlock Autofill. Someone claimed that they unlocked it and forgot how to again. They may be lying, but I think we just need to find a way to unlock autofill. USB debugging seems to be the only thing that's worked, we might not be able to figure it out but I just think they may be the only way. Also, I just wish gabb put more effort into the phone. I get that they're a small company but like, my phone is so ****ty!
Y'all are right. The key lies on the inside.

I cant say I remember what firmware it was on, but it had the most recent update. So there is still work to do. Im thinking if I can get the most recent firmware and try flashing it I can attempt to "bring back" my phone. This also means a new method is needed in order to get apps.

Another thing I would like to point out Is that there HAS to be a way. Gabb has to do development of apps on this thing, so they would have to have developer mode enabled. Also to all the gabb moles on this forum, I would like to insult your development skills. All the devs do is simply delete key features, and hardly develop apps that are key to a functional phone. If gabb had simply developed useful apps like a notes app, or, i don't know, a FUNCTIONAL calendar! We wouldn't have to be doing all this work if gabb simply put in a little effort.

Devs, may the blood of my phone be on your hands.

To all the gabb moles (I know you are there) Please listen to our request. We will keep on fighting, and you will have to continue to endlessly patch the OS. If you would simply come here to talk to us, the actual users of your phones, we could get a lot of work done. Im sure if proper developmental methods where to be used to create useful apps. A lot of us would probably agree to stop fighting. Just put a little effort to make your phones better. That's all we are asking.
ZTE is a large phone company, and it would have been useless do develop a whole new ROM. For what the phone needs to do and for what your mom bought it to do, it is a great phone. Even if Gabb added more necessary apps to the phone, we would still be looking for ways to get apps and games on the phone. Your hands are the only ones responsible for your phone, because you took the risk.

Damn it your right. It was a fit of immature anger, as a result of my actions. I digress. We have to get back to the original topic of jailbreaking these phones. As for an EMP, I don't see how that could do anything but cause the phone to reboot. If the data was stored om ram, (obviously isn't) That would work, but It doesn't seem like it would do the trick. To reiterate what has been said, the trick lies in the software.

Thanks for putting me back into place. That was out of line of me.

I respect the forum, and that its mean't to be for this kind of thing, but the problem is its accessable to anyone. Meaning that the people who are trying to stop what we're trying to do can can clearly see what we are doing. So it needs to be done at least once

Hey! Thank you for your kind recognition!
However, as ItsUnified said, this issue is kinda difficult, because every time we come up with something, it is patched, and we have to start all over again. I totally respect the spirit of the forum,. and would agree with you 100 % if it wasn't for the reason above. I created a new email so that I could coordinate these ideas with the Google services, because my current email provider, Proton Mail, does not have the equivalent of Google Docs or chat. Thank you so much for your time and moderation

Since we know how to disable software updates, I think we can be mostly open on XDA. Flashing is such a powerful tool that it is almost unpatchable.
And besides, the more people who know about potential methods, the faster a new method will come out.

It was in the pdf. It’s a line of code you can put in ADB. The line is adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.zte.zdm.

    Gabb must have already figured it out because I just got a notification for a software update, but I'm hoping I can figure it out before the update goes through.
    Interesting... Everybody like this post if you're getting a similar notification
    also, I just claimed my free Gabb shirt, I'm gonna use it as a shooting target for bow and arrow practice it's perfect for it because it's bright yellow and it says GABB WIRELESS in big letters, helps me take out my rage lol.
    Also, if your phone is one of the newer ones, and this is the first update you've gotten, I think that I would encourage everyone that is able to, to go head and update. There is really no point delaying it if there is no way of stopping it. We will have to find a new way of exploiting this version!
    yeah because I'm working on a way to stop the updates because there going to update no matter what so any help would help!
    TYPE : adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.zte.zdm in command promt to stop updates!
