I think anyone has installed spy app on my phone to see my messages or pics or documents. So can anyone suggest how could I check my entire mobile to find this type of app if it is installed in my mobile.
Go to Application Manager of your phone and see if any unknown app installed there. Plus you can simply reset your phone which will remove all user installed apps. You can also check by installing any good anti virus app.

I have downloaded a virus, I think. It is Mobile Mail. It is all is Russian, I think, and I got it from App Brain. It said it was an update for the Social Hub but it was not. I can not remove it now. Is there any way?
Titanium backup, or root uninstaller

Check if it is enabled as a device admin, under menu, settings, security, and disable it there. It should be uninstallable now.
I'm looking for a way to password protect an app. Preferably a method that requires root (instead of just downloading an app that does that. Because you can just delete the app and the password's gone).
Any way? If not, then the best app.

App Lock
I use App Lock,
beside the apps I want to protect, I also locked System Setting and Play Store so no one without password can uninstall/install application.

I use Hide It Pro to protect all my applications and files.
It might not put password in every applications or files you have but I tell you, Hide It Pro does more on it. search it on Google Play Store and have a try, read some comments over there to give you an insight.
Goodluck
Been trying to find a app protection application to protect certain apps from being opened unless having the passcode. I have trouble finding one that fully protects the app and can't be overrided from opening it from the task manager or from notification

Is there any particular app which helps in monitoring data usage? I mean, I have loads of apps installed. But I just want Watsaap. I don't want other apps to use data. Is Thr any app which helps to enable just one app to use data? Do help me out!!!

If you go in to Settings-Data Usage and then just scroll down through all the app you have got, pick the app you want to restrict background data for, click on that app, and scroll down to the bottom and you will see a section that says ' Restrict Background Data ' just click that box and problem solved. Do this to all the other app that you have downloaded ( apart from Whatsapp ) and you the apps will then only use data when you are actually using them.
Hope this helps
Actually that's a tiresome task. For a rooted phone I found a better task. Get app called LBE. It creates a firewall. And allows us to do what I wanted very easily. That's if I want only one app to take up my internet. And also lots basically an app which helps us to control the all kinds of permission. Anyways thanks for the reply!!

hi! we can clean some apps that we dont use going to playstore/myapss/all.
but if you try remove an app from the list (not the 1st app preferably), and install again that app you will notice the position on the list is the same. So its impossible delete apps history, google always remember what apps you have ever installed with your account?
That right. The installed / uninstalled apps are save in your gmail account.
I don't know about any way to delete it.
