Flash it completely...

Can a factory reset do that?

Proudlyngwa:
Op paragraph and rephrasing helps.

That being said poorly written article.

Noise in background can be Network issues, can be a phone fault from some callers, this your article can make someone think of flashing his phone.

It is very difficult to hack phones, what we mostly have is malware, which brings up annoying pop-ups .
Mobile phones are far more secure their PC counterpart.

really I must tell u as a phone engineer its possible ,but the signs here are kind of wrong except for one .this days hackers buy malware's(some write the programme) and send them open on the internet .mostly through a user clicking ads or visiting sites infected with their programs.when ur phone is infected they(hackers malware) gives the hacjers permission to access your mic,locations,messaging,calls,and many other personal stuffs on ur phone.

everybody saying phone cannot be hacked here in Nigeria, I just laugh..

looks like you guys haven't heard of 'Metasploit' and 'The fat rat'. on Kali Linux

my fone is in a state of madness now. popping up different applications. help me

husband and boyfriends are fond of installing spy apps on phones of spouses and wives, and to top it up, android phones are so porous that you can virtually do almost anything with it eg turning it into a TV remote control, all you need to do is install a software and it hides without being seen, BlackBerry remains a bone in the neck to hackers they now try to out phase the device, get a BlackBerry phone and enable des encryption, keyone is cool

And note there's little difference between a phone and a computer system .

Without your phone being rooted,its very difficult.

ignore..
Banks will never ask such..
Better still send a message back to them that thunder will fire their generation...
They'll know you caught them and they'll let you be

iswallker:


No

Has your phone been rooted.
You probably have an adware in your phone, you will need an app like lucky patcher to check for bloatware in your phone, if you can check your list of installed apps, crosscheck it with someone with a similar make, such apps don't usually go beyond 300 kilobytes

Will do a quick check...

Some spy apps can withstand that manual reset, so I advice you to flash it.. Visit any computer village close by.

Pure lies.... Best bet for u is put ur fone to dfu n connect to ur iTunes. Click to restore from initial back up uve made to that system or do online restore. This will download fresh os and flash yr device.

And if u are in Lagos call 08113648092

Good luck

thanks.I appreciate

Baba abeg leave these ignoramuses. when I just started my IT journey. I wanted to learn so many things at a fast pace, Ccna,python, ethical hacking (Ceh)

I was in a Cyber security Whatsapp group filled with indians nigerians in the group were just like 5 out of 150 and someone dropped an app claiming it can hack passwords and sort. Naive me , I download and installed the app and boom I was hacked!

I didn't notice any strange thing like this OP says. Later the guy who hacked me later apologized and laughed over it, saying he was testing METASPLOIT. He had access to my messages, call logs, he could tell what site i was on.

We became pals and He wanted to teach me a lot but I just wasn't cut out for hacking. I prefer the Network engineering side of IT, configuration and stuff

So if you are still saying you can't be hacked. You be MUMU. Especially if you are the type that downloads all these Modded Whatsapp (GBWhatsapp) or apps outside of play store. you are toast!

I can share an app for you via Xender and you wouldn't even suspect the app came with a Malware,lool

dey there make pant dey wear you.

okonja:


Lol...Too much of foreign movies....You sound so much like an IT novice...Nothing like phone hacking more especially in this our country, your phone can be tracked BUT not hacked to the extent of overriding your apps, that's malware as a result of installing all apps without verifying its signature.

Please could explain to me how a phone can be tracked as I have my phone stolen?

obilloXCI:
I got my Wi-Fi hacked last month by my next door neighbor.
I found out he was the one because I am a white-hat-hacker.
Using the I. P and MAC address of his device. I sent him a warning text not to use my Wi-Fi. He apologized because we know ourselves.
Do not underestimate Nigerians

please how can i hack passworded wifi ?

It is not difficult to hack a phone.
Some apps require assess to SMS, contact, device ID, call information, location, photo/media files, Wi-Fi connection information, camera, microphone, and so on for them to work and most people grant the access.

That as well is not available to the public, except to security agencies.

Hacking entails getting to the kernel of the phone, if your phone is not rooted, Android will not grant any application access, by rooting your phone, you waiver it's security.
This is different from giving permission to apps to use certain features of the phone.
A hacked phone won't ask you for those permissions.

Can you hack a Nokia torch, without physical access, stop posting rubbish

A stolen phone can be tracked.
At least I know of iPhone and Sony xperia

phone guru.I forgot my iphone7 Gmail/test answer..I received sms yesterday. dat i should fill in my mastercard detail online to enable dem do d needful. Pls help me oo b4 dem empty my kudi

be careful because this could be "phising" and as soon as you fill in those details your kudi will automatically become someone else's own. I think the best thing is to go to any reputable place like "slot" for instance and see it a professional could assist you there. Money no easy o my brother not to talk of loosing hard earned cash

Proudlyngwa:

That's not a smart device.
You can only use a Nokia touch for calls, sms and of cause torch light.
The calls made on it can be tapped, the location of the phone can also be tracked using the cell towers. The call log and the SMS can be retrieved. Is that still not hacking?
Is it not a Telecoms company that is providing the service?
Is it not humans that developed the technology?
Is it not humans that are operating it?

Seems you are forgetting the Government runs/controls everything legally or illegally.
Physical access is not needed when the device connects to the internet.
