Hello everyone, I got a wileyfox swift 2 phone a couple of months ago and once the android 8 update came out, I updated my phone. Now, recently I installed a pi hole server on my home network and noticed that there is some strange dns queries being made by my phone. I have attached a picture of the requests. Can someone tell me if this is normal of there is some malware or virus affecting my phone. Also, I have tried a factory reset on the phone since I first thought it was a virus/malware but the requests still continue. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

many of those look like AD networks, legit ones though.

Hi,
I'm really hoping somebody can help me.
I connected to Zune and went through the standard update instructions but the phone froze at "step 9 of 9" - I think this was during a reboot.
It just hung on the network provider screen (Orange UK).
Now, it won't go past that at all.
Orange support will provide a replacement but that won't help since I would like to retrieve my media.
Any help would be gratefully received.
Thanks in advance.
So, I did some digging and found this page:
"support.microsoft. com /kb/2484484#StuckAtSplashScreen"
Followed the instructions and got this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I really hope it's not completely irretrievable!
Tried this too but to no avail...
"windowsdiscussions. com/restoration-error-c101002e-nokia-windows-phone-3445.html"
So, in the end, I managed to flash the phone using:
"youtube. com/watch?v=puTMCG_CiMk"
However, my problem now is, it's written over all of my old media files. I used to be able to undelete files from old PC hard drives however, not sure on how to do it with a phone - any ideas?
Thanks and appreciated!
Come on guys! What does it take to get some Noobie help?!
I've done a lot on my own but could do with some real technical know-how...
Unfortunately I can't help with this, however my sister has just emailed me to say her Lumia 800 ran flat and now won't boot past the Orange logo either.
She had updated to 7.8 a few days ago. Possibly connected...
Hey everybody, i hope you can help me.
I've a Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 rootet and since 2 weeks with CM11 M7. I use the Tool Reverse Thetering from this thread Link while at work to have some kind of internet on my phone.
The tool shows all kinds of up and downloads. After flashing my Phone with CM11 M7 i used the tool again and noticed that after 2 minutes in standby my Phone starts to do a lot of http connections. (See 2nd image). I know that the phone updates all the messaging and mail apps but with stock rom ist wasn't that often. In normal conditions the requests look like this in standby:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But after around 2 Minutes the Phone starts to request some http adresses all the time and it doesn't stop. This looks like this for example:
(Sorry for the big image)
Unfortunately i don't know if the phone does this only when using Reverse Thetering or also when i'm online with wifi or gsm. I can only see and chek it with reverse thetering.
I've bought Kaspersky Internetsecurity and tryed other apps from avg or avira to check my phone for a virus or similar bot non of them found something (i used each app on its on with only on app installed at the time)
I'm not an expert but it looks like my phone could be infested by some kind of botnet or similar but i'm not sure. Has anyone a idea what this could be and how i could stop it or get rid of the whatever i have?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Since 27/3/18 (2 days ago) I think some virus has infected my phone. My phone is not rooted.
Every time I lock the phone it comes up with, per exempleur, the attached:-
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
. Also things like the (see the left-hand side) are popping up all the time. I am going out of my mind!!
I've tried all advice I can see online. I've installed Anti-Adware; Zemana Anti-Virus; MalwareBytes; CCleaner. I've deleted one or two questionable apps (not that they were added in the last two days or anything...). I've also followed the various guides about turning off ad-personalisations and opting out of ads etc through Google settings etc, though they keeps coming up.
What can I do save for factory resetting the entire device? How did this happen?
Interestingly, don't know if it's relevant, though a couple of nights ago (immediately before all this started) I was woken up at 2am by my phone making a horrendous noise. I couldn't turn the noise off I couldn't turn the phone on or off. I had to hold the three buttons and do a hard reboot. It felt like some kind of thing had taken over and I had no control of it. Now it's the same in a way... I think they might be linked.
HELP!!
Back up your data , do factory reset , unistall all app what you don't need if the problem is still there , then the problem is in your firmware .
I got like a year ago this Asus Chromebox CN60 at a local street market for about 40€. When I turned it on I realised that it was tied to a Toyota Europe enterprise certificate. The only app I can access is Toyota Billboard, but I cannot access the app menu unless I log in with a Toyota Europe account. I tried to look for the seller to make a refund but I have no luck finding him. I've been trying to get into developer mode but no matter how I tried it always keeps telling me in dutch that the enterprise has disabled developer mode. I've even tried to remove the lock screw on the inside but nothing new happens. It has been lying around my basement for a while that I almost it, until some days ago my father's old laptop broke down and I thought that it would be a great idea since it has an Intel Core i7 4600U and it would be perfect for him. I attach below some photos and screenshots of what I've said.
Has anyone any clue on how I could bypass the lock and access the developer mode? Any help would be very appreciated.

I find that when tempreture reach some limits, some cores will be deactivated by system automatically, it will even deactivate the super core and two bigger cores which makes my device too stuck to scan a QR code. How can I prevent this? I already disabled the system app thermal control.
