Device profiles
Every mobile device has a built-in profile. These profiles include information about the device, the device configuration, and your personal configurations. In effect the profile is the brain of your device. If the device is corrupted and/or hacked, the profile can be destroyed. This chapter will show an example of an Apple profile and an Android profile.
If the profile is not working, the device will not work. Information included in a device profile can include:
