How do you remove live demo mode if "Retail App" can't be found?

I have a samsung galaxy tab s that my dad got from his friend who owns a gadget shop. I want to do a factory reset but it wont let me because it's in live demo mode. ive tried different methods like switching it off then holding the power button, volume up button and home button at once but it only says "mdm wont allow factory reset". Also, i've tried to do the method wherein you go to the retail app and input a password but I cant even find the retail app anywhere! What should I do? It's frustrating me because its preventing me from updating the android version and using all of the device's features like the fingerprint scanner. plus, there are so many junk files and cookies i cant delete and it's preventing me from installing apps. Help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Try booting into safe mode. Shut down your phone, and as it's powering back on hold down the volume down button until the lock screen shows. From there go to settings then to apps, and find any apps that may be taking control of your tab. Also try getting the app ES file explorer to get rid of the app.

You need to get the code from the Samsung relailer. Otherwise it's stolen. Or your "dad that owns a shop" can't get the code. Then your sol

Unfortunately the answer is SOMETIMES.... I unfortunately got one on E-Bay. I spent 3 days on the internet reading every response and this is what to do and the useable advice is. 1) go on the page where you can "factory reset", if it is blanked out, does not exist, or it resets but still does not work then 2) do a HARD RESET, by pressing power, volume up and home (find the full details on the net as you have to go through a whole process)... if it still stays factory, then 3) find the factory mode application, it takes you to a red screen, use 5444 to get in and there is a demo mode option switched on, if it it switchable switch it off.... if if is blanked out then 4) take it to a phone repair shop and just open it and if the answer is "the motherboard is a demo and there is no ariel and the mike is missing, then sorry.... time to give it back.... I know some people say "change it", but a demo costs about £20-£30 and the repairs much more and even if you repair it... what you have is a old phone just with your cover, screen and battery..... SORRY, I was one of the people hitting number 4 and believe me I tried everything.

I used package disable app. On LG V60.

And now I can at least use it as a computer.

I must update apps manually. Because playstore also says Demo mode is on.

And to get past 50% charge I just put it in Download mode. Then it charges to 100%.

I still need the password to actually turn off demo mode. Oh and fingerprint does not work.
