[General Questions and Answers] ab1jx:
I was able to do ps ax using an old termux version and see processes running just fine after I reset it. It does seem a little slow and I get about 1 new spam a day, which may be trying to get me to click on the link and infect the phone.

All the phone's secrets should be laid bare here and malware should be apparent i I knew what to look for.
