I one time received an OTA software update on my Samsung Galaxy A3 while connected to my WiFi, I have rejected it several times but later gave up n install it, and the next thing I noticed on my phone was unauthorized installations occurred. I immediately backed up my media files and initiated a factory reset, after restoring my media files and contacts(thanks to google contact ), I got the OTA update notification again , this time I already set USB debugging to not allowing installation of 3rd party apps. And that was it, anytime it pops up, I reject it, after 2 weeks, it stopped popping up . SO I guess that was the f***king malware |

ogunsinamayowa: Just get the app, its self-explanatory. Normal scan guarantees 80-90% recovery, deep scan recovery( For more than once....formatted devices and co) guarantees a lesser percentage. |

This is one of the reasons why android is a no-no for me. I've stuck to Apple's iOS since 2010, notwithstanding that's it's not really a "fluid" choice in terms of connectivity with other OSes. I've been using iPhones without "antivirus" and have never had issues with malware/virus or their likes. Truth is if you do sensitive information-related stuffs on your phone (such as internet banking) stay away from android. Personally my phone is my bank, safe, diary, and lots more which I can't afford to be compromised by some self-installing malwares. iOS is peace of mind. 1 Like |

princey83: Count yourself lucky. Perhaps you are using the most updated (high end) ones. I've had some android user friends complain of "strange apps installing themselves. |

tomquest: Most peeps don't read the permission they grant apps that why they install virus, even with that one can manually change the permissions to "ask first" |

starlightRR:"Taps mic and clears throat" You are absolutely correct. Most times we tend not to read the permission of most apps, myself included. However, fortunately, I have never experienced such malware issues before, maybe because, I use different custom roms. "Drops mic and leaves" |
