I havent encountered that on any android phone i had.
try reflashing your original firmware... wipe/factory reset maybe.

[Q] How to detect "SpyWare"

Hello all,
may i´m not right in this forum, but i can´t see a matching one.
I bought a used android phone from someone who was somekind of "not friendly".
Coming from winmob, i´m an android noob.
After reading here and at the net about the possibilities of android apps, i am now a little afraid to go online with the device with my sim inside, because i am not sure if the seller may installed some spy-apps and then may get my personal data, my location, or may remotely crash the device after a while.
I´ve already set it back to factory. But as i read, there may some apps which will survive this. I´ve also already rooted and installed some "su-apps" to look inside processes and files.
But there are many apps and services i cannot judge if they are standard from the OS and safe, or not.
Are there tools to investigate if something "weird" is installed, or may blacklists of spy-apps?
Thx in advance.
flash back to a stock rom, then youll know you are safe.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
thanks for the quick reply
you mean, when i run
settings - security - back to factory (my translation from german)
is enough and no "backround-spy-process" is able to survive within this process?
thx
Search the market for Dr.Web perhaps?

will have a look about it, thx
Simply doing the factory reset may not get it.
If you're rooted, install a custom recovery and then install a custom ROM (could be custom, or just a rooted stock rom). You'll wipe the various partitions when you install the rom, and that should clear anything up.
We aren't going to be able to help much more than that without knowing at least what phone you have. Note that there are phone-specific subforums here, I would recommend that you find the one for the phone you bought and ask in there.

thx for your suggestions....
as i said, i´m an android noob and a little afraid to install a custom ROM and if it will crash then.
it was on 1.6 and i already updated it to 2.2 (OTA) ... did that may did the same as to install a new (custom-) ROM?
btw. it´s a streak and i spent a lot of time to setup apps, widgets, etc.
are there really no tools to detect known spy-apps?
thanks to all
Dr.Web doesn't do that? I got the impression that was what it was for... :shrug:

Verizon Note 2 4.1.2 Failed to Update

I tried updating but I had an error in the middle of it.
I suspect this is due to my rooting the device once (although the previous update from Verizon removed root) and deleting some system apps.
Does anyone have a full list of all the system apps a stock image should have? I can't remember which ones I deleted.
Mine did it too

I called Verizon and actually got an English speaking man! Anyway, after the predictable factory reset, it still won't update. I had tried to root it but was not successful. So I have all the stock apps, ROM etc. I don't think this is an issue. Gave up an will try again.

Can you post a list of the stock apps so I can see which ones I deleted?

I know the thread is old, but its the only thing i could find on xda about it, i just came across this same issue and was told this by their live chat rep...
Gini: Okay, so here's where we're at. This update is a known issue, and if we replace the phone, the new one will probably do the same thing. Samsung is working on this, and will be sending a new software out soon.

Anybody root a stream machine smartab?

I got this 13 inch tablet for displaying music PDF files.
It's got KitKat 4.4, and there's apparently no intention to update this from the manufacturer.
I'd like to run igigbook, but that app requires 5.0+. So I figure I can root this, then do the cm12 ...?
I've looked on compatible devices lists and can't find this device.
Anybody got a link or maybe just some advice?
Thx

I own one of these.
I found Kingo Root successfully roots it.
Unfortunately, no CM has been built for it.... yet. I plan to fix this.
Fair warning, though: do NOT remove anything child-mode-related yet, unless you have a backup of the system partition. It's basically an AOSP ROM, but they've tweakedwith the SYSTEMUI enough that straight-up removing it causes crach loops.
It's got an RK3188 chip, for the curious. Opened it to verify.

Great.
Ive learned the hard way! lol
Bit too late for me now, but i had a similar tab from smart telecom and i cant find any firmware for it, i rooted with kingroot and after removing all the child mode and disney crap, im having the same thing.
Ive started a thread, but im hoping i can find a patched firmware without all the bloatware and a newer android build if possible.
HI - Just came across this thread, pity I hadn't seen it earlier - I had/have rooted with King Root, which worked fine. Then set about deleting all the child-mode-related apps. Now I'm stuck with receiving "Unfortunately, the process com.android.systemui has stopped" nothing seems to fix it. Do you know where I might find the original ROM that I can restore, can't find anything on the manfactures website..
Any help, really appreciated.
Thanks
Wayne

Hi Wayne,
I contacted the supplier who was going to contact the manufacturer, still have not found anything.
Someone else started a thread some time back and did the same thing as us.
I think someone was going to create a ROM for me, i will direct them to this thread.
Thanks for the update.
I had some success last night in resolving my issues with "com.android.systemui" - I managed to get into play store and reinstalled "Net Nanny for Android" as soon as the install had completed the error message went away and hasn't returned. The other "Kids" apps that I had deleted have not reinstalled, appears Net Nanny must have removed/broken something when I deleted it.
Would be still good to get a copy of the original rom for next time, better still to get an upgrade from 4.4.4 to something a little newer at least.
Anyway hoe that help to get you going again.
Wayne
I am ordering one of these now. Let me know if there's anything I can do to try to help in terms of getting a copy of the ROM. (I haven't done android development before, but I am a software engineer so I am willing to give anything a shot)

Let me know how you get on, as I am still after a ROM image if i can find one.
Going to start researching all the possible ways to get a ROM image (in addition to just asking the manufacturer). I will first do a search, and then maybe post in the forums somewhere, but I am starting here:
http://www.theandroidhow.com/2014/06/how-to-dump-backup-any-android-rom.html
Did some research, and actually found that the androidhow article I linked in my last post was the most relevant. I followed the romdump script process and believe I have the rom image files.
The question becomes, are the image files most usable in their current form, or as flashable images?
Has there been any developments in this, or anything close to a ROM or even an update?

Not that im aware of, i just did what someone else suggested here and reinstalled netnanny off the app store.
At least its working again, but not terrific.
Oh, well I didn't have that problem. The guy I bought this streamachine off of already had it rooted and everything, i was just wondering if anything had been developed...4.4.4 is quite a bit outdated, and limited.
Clay,
Can you upload that ROM image that you made? I bought another ST13 and while I can get it into recovery mode, it still won't boot even after a factory data reset. My plan is to try recovering from the sdcard before I assume that what I have is a collection of spare parts.
My two others aren't rooted, and since we need them tonight, I don't dare mess with them right now.
Thanks,
Paul
can I get a copy?
I rooted my ST13 and now I'm having bluetooth problems. I'd like to restore back to the stock ROM. Can I have a copy of yours? Does it work?
THANKS!

I am also interested in this thread, anyone know about the bootloader?
???
So still no DISK IMAGE or ROM? I successfully rooted St1316 but can't connect to wifi. I left natnanny alone, but it now doesn't connect to ANY wifi networks. Tries then switches to either "saved" or "disabled". I can push some apps to the device via bluetooth file transfer app but don't know what's missing. Could this be a permission issue? I'm lost and stressed. Tried factory wipe. No luck. Open to suggestions. Help guys. This thing kinda sucked before I lost wifi. Now it's just a glorified digital photo frame that plays sound WAY too softly.

I can't run a desired custom rom with open_gapps on gt-p7500

After a lot of attempts I still can only run the official Samsung 4.0.4 (P7500XXLQ8/IMM76D.XWLP6) or any other localisation. When I attempt to flash another rom the only one that works so far is the AOSP version 5.1.1 from aosp-5.1.1-p4-20160305.zip. After that I can install open-gapps but Google Play Services keeps crashing.
The reason I want to install another ROM is that my wife uses the tablet for Youtube only and Youtube stopped working on this specific version; confirmed by other users as well, I read on several forums. The trick would be to return to an older version of Google Play Services and prevent it from updating, but I hate such a suggestion.
I have tried all sorts of GT-P7500 (p4) downloads, with both TWRP and CWM but get stuck at this point. I tried installing newer versions of TWRP but that fails also; tried to increase system or even re-partition, but that didn't work as well.
Despite all the step by step instructions I can't get this working on my specific tablet. Does anyone have suggestions on how to get a newer version working WITH Google apps of which Youtube is the most important.
Kind regards,
Arjen

Have a look at this thread. I have been using it on my P7500 for a couple of weeks now with no problem.
This worked!

Thanks a lot. This is the first set of instructions I found that did the job without any errors. My wife can watch Youtube on her somewhat older GT-P7500 again and I can move on to another "interesting project".
Kind regards,

Roms not intsalling

If this is in the wrong place I apologise and please move.
So i have been installing roms for a long time, I know how its done and what i need to avoid. Recently though, every rom i try to install fails with error 7, Even the same zip file i've already installed before so i know it should work fine. I've looked on google but all that comes up is this updater script that should fix it, but i have tried that to no avail.
Anybody had this problem and fixed it?
Thanks

Ah sorry about that forget to mention.
Anyway I figured it out, I had installed a vendor zip and forgot, turns out that was causing the problem.
