I think you should add that in your phone under ‘Bonuses’ there is an upgrade that will automatically complete all activities in any area of the map. You’ll also get another for completing a certain mission though I can’t remember which exactly.

Wwau's solution pretty much explains what you need to do for this achievement. However, if you're finding it difficult to complete some of the activities, I was able to replicate a glitch from the original Saints Row The Third (Xbox 360) game to pretty much net you this achievement with a bit of saving and replaying.

"Unlimited City Takeover" glitch - step-by-step:
1. When you reach the mission "Stag Party" in Act 2, make a manual save before it.
2. Proceed with the mission - go to Stag HQ to burn the banners, return to Saints HQ to defend your turf.
3. At the end of the mission, choose to give Josh to Cyrus in exchange for the City Takeover bonus. Parachute down the building to end the mission.
4. Go through all the end scenes and reward screens until you resume control. Notice on the top left corner, the game will autosave.
5. DO NOT GO TO YOUR PHONE NOW. Instead, load your manual save that was before the mission.
6. Once the save is loaded, press cn_back to go to your phone. You'll notice now that you have the City Takeover Bonus from the "Stag Party" mission, even though you technically haven't done the mission yet. Use the bonus on any hood - this bonus completes every activity and gang operation, as well as buy every property and store in the hood for you. Collectibles are not automatically collected though.
7. Once you complete the step to take over a hood, make another manual save. Your hood progress is now saved.
8. You can now replay "Stag Party", and redo steps 1-5 repeatedly until you take over all the hoods, without actually having to do the activities. The mission takes around 15 minutes to complete.

All the activities and district control achievements will unlock when you do this.

(You can also use this method to farm tank kills, headshot kills, etc. by making a manual save during the mid-mission. It doesn't save the mission progress, but challenges progress will be saved.)

Now, obviously this is repetitive and boring, and most of the fun in this game are from the activities. I personally used this for activities that I was unable to complete (Heli Assault Hard and Trailblazing Hard). So this is just a trick for those who have tried, but unable to finish the harder activities. Don't flame me! wink

A complete City Takeover is when you complete all the activities in a certain district. If you complete every district, you’ve taken over the whole city. Districts which you own become purple on the map and there will be less rival gang members. (Before taking over a district or taking out every Gang Operation, please take a look at the challenges list/trophy.)

There are also 2 City Takeover upgrades, which allow you to select a district and instantly complete it. You can find it on the ‘Bonuses’ upgrade list. They can be bought at Respect Rank 1 & 28. Choose a district with the lowest completion percentage, or choose one with many activities you don’t want to play for example.

Here’s a breakdown of the total activities. See each district trophy for more info.
If you open your map, you can turn on/off all the activity icons, or show the icons per activity. You can also show the total activities per district, or if you aim your map crosshair outside the map, the total amount of activities.

Total Activities: 56 - Blue icons.
  • 6x Escort.
  • 2x Guardian Angel
  • 6x Heli Assaults
  • 6x Insurance Fraud
  • 6x Mayhem
  • 6x Prof. Genki
  • 6x Snatch
  • 6x Tank Mayhem
  • 6x Trafficking
  • 6x Trail Blazing
Total Stores: 34 - Green icons.
  • Total cost: $117.000
Total Properties: 30 - Brown icons.
  • Total cost: $125.000
Total Cribs: 10 - Yellow icons.
Total Gang operations: 32 - Pink icons.

Not a difficult, but time-consuming trophy, I advise you to buy the level 4 bullet damage ability in advance - you can buy it at level 48, you won’t be dealt damage, this will make life much easier, you can also use the ability - control over the city - you can buy it at level 28, However, you can only use it once.

I advise you not to use the ability to capture the steelport, and in general to capture it all until you complete the You're My Hero trophy! / You are my hero! , there are suspicions that the bandits may disappear, and because of some unmade taunts, you will have to start the game all over again, or look for a player online.
