WallpaperUnbricker

Unbricks an Android device when it is bricked by the RGB wallpaper bug (Note: This only works when debug USB is enabled and the PC you are using is trusted by the device)

Note: this method only works on Android > 5.1

How to unbrick your device

  1. Install ADB on your PC. (There are tons of guides on how to do it on the internet)
  2. Download the APK file from HERE
  3. Install the apk using this command: adb install <path-of-the-apk-file> Note: needs to be replaced with the path of the apk file
  4. Set the new wallpaper using this command: adb shell am broadcast -a com.adryzz.wallpaperunbricker.SET_WALLPAPER -n com.adryzz.wallpaperunbricker/.SetWallpaperReceiver Now it should have unbricked the device!

Now, uninstall the app or keep it and run only the second command in case you'll ever need to.

This app weights 2MB on the device so you can keep it without wasting disk space.
