Hello idk has anyone dealt with this virus it a pip and pops up randomly mostly when I open an app have installed anti viruses and malwares removals but nothing worked
[General Questions and Answers] J.Michael:
If it bothers you enough, you could try resetting (boot to recovery, factory reset / wipe data), and this time pay attention to what apps you install.

If you would be satisfied with just not seeing the ads displayed so prominently, check under advanced settings (it's what I read, maybe it meant Developer Options) for which apps have permission to "display over other apps" -- revoke the permission.

This Reddit post suggests going through the list of apps. He says he found three with no name and no icon. He removed them and now he's very happy.
[General Questions and Answers] hazzana:
Yess resetting would be last option but ty I'll go do tht and hopefully it'll fix it, but it's not displaying over other app. Samsung browser app opens and it'll just be an ad.
[General Questions and Answers] J.Michael:
That screenshot does not look like a browser to me.

Are you saying that when you open Samsung Browser it goes to a page that is an ad?

Or does an ad window open in front of the browser?

If you are in a browser, you should be able to see an address bar telling you the web page currently being displayed.

The Reddit user's advice was not tied to "displaying in front" -- that was another post I read. The Reddit user's advice seemed to be just "go through all apps in the app drawer", or maybe go to Settings -> Apps, possibly using a menu to "Show system apps" (in case these vermin are especially clever), and see if any app "looks suspicious". I know, that's not much of a search criterion, but he said he found three apps with no name and no icon, which was especially "suspicious", and that "removing" them (I assume "uninstalling") solved his problem of unwanted ads.
[General Questions and Answers] hazzana:
So let's say you open an app it might pop up, playing video on YouTube app it'll pop up in middle it's random but it's picture in picture and on app drawer it shows Samsung browser which I don't use I use chrome instead
[General Questions and Answers] J.Michael:
I'm still not understanding.

By "app drawer", I mean the display I get by starting from the home screen and stroking up. It shows all installed apps (as opposed to maybe six I have on my home screen).

The sideways hamburger menu, the (for me) rightmost of the three Android navigation icons at the bottom of the screen, has been described as "currently running apps". I don't think that's true, but it's the closest I can come to "what is this app in my face?"

Is *that* where you see Samsung Internet?

Just seeing Samsung Internet in the app drawer doesn't mean anything. It came with the tablet. It *might* mean something if you go to app info and the "Force stop" is *not* greyed out -- I do not know any other way to tell if an app has been run, and I do not know how reliable this is.

Did you go through Android Settings -> Apps to see if anything looked "suspicious"?

Ok, i just switched slot_a to slot_b and now i'm stuck on EDL mode, i downloaded the firmware .114 like i had before, Qualcomm 9008 is correctly set, and i have both emmcdl tools and MSM installed, but i need to convert firmware file from .zip or Decrypted folder to OPS File for MSM flashing.

Tried with emmcdl to it requires an "rawprogram.xml" and in the full rom i found here : https://xdaforums.com/t/oneplus-open-cph2551-na-eu-in-root-guide-na-eu-in-203-update.4638771/ has no xml file even after decryption.

maybe g96818 could have any idea of it ? you seems to have some experiences with oneplus and this is my first oneplus (i'm from samsung)

I'm open for any idea

Yes I second this if there's a method to unbrick or use EDL please share publicly @Noetmi
[OnePlus Open] mvikrant97:
It can be flashed using official tool as of now but you need to have a working EDL backup of your device.
[OnePlus Open] Noetmi:
Sorry i have poor network where i am currently.

we passed maybe around 2h or more with @mvikrant97 to fix it.

The result on my side (with my issue) is : for the moment it's not working.

we have to stop trying with @mvikrant97 because after few test, the phone not respond anymore (could be battery less issue) and i'm currently charging the phone.

we are able to download the official firmware with oneplus Flashtool but it was used with Phoenix Server tools which is a paid software.

I'm not at home for the moment, but i will try again if i could see my phone on my computer with the method described here : https://xdaforums.com/t/op11-edl-do...xygenos-coloros.4607995/page-21#post-89240240 which is free but was not working on my side with firmware found here : https://ycy3b-my.sharepoint.com/per..._onmicrosoft_com/Documents/OnePlus Flash File

I downloaded like i said two firmwares from oneplus server and i will upload it soon if someone want to try.
[OnePlus Open] mvikrant97:
Without proper Fireshose no one would be able to use the firmware.
[OnePlus Open] Noetmi:
you're right,

for another @mvikrant97 told me the best could be to have someone with a working one for dumping EDL from it.

I could try to dump it from my device, if someone layed out the method

[Google Pixel 2 Questions & Answers] the_pretzels:
Hellom

I have an old Pixel 2 that I've been using as a backup phone for some years and it simply started rebooting alone.

https://flic.kr/p/2poDAgC

Every boot get stuck in G logo screen.

I can acess bootloader so I already tried to wipe reset, but it didn't fix the problem.

I tried to start a OTA side load but it seems it is not being recognizable. I choose "Apply update from ADB", plug the cable and perform a "adb devices" but nothing shows. I know my pc can has drivers and can recognize other devices because I have another Pixel 3 working fine.

When I choose to power off through bootloader it reboots as you could see in video.

I've tried some physical solutions like rubbing the screen with pressure, sapmming power button, tapping the screen (all described here) but no success. I'm about to put in freezer now :oops:

So, I believe it has one or several circuit problems such as USB plug that wont't allow me to use ADB connection.

It's an old phone and also very difficult to find tech assistance in my country so maybe I'll try to open it and do something.

Before doing it, do you guys recommend any other option?

Thanks in advance for any reply.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Proteus93:
Hey all... just picked up the Touch Pro the other day and was a little disheartened to see that the tethering functions can be a little troublesome.

In the past, I've used USBModem on a Treo 700p and it worked beautifully via BlueTooth with my Nokia N800. I typically don't use the devices with a laptop/desktop, as it is most often something I'll make use of when I'm out... otherwise, the standard PDANet solutions would be fine.

Soooo... questions are: have their been any solutions figured out by others who may be using a Nokia N800/N810 to tether to, or is the only current option to use the WMWifiRouter software? Even using the registry changes mentioned in other threads, I have had no luck having the Nokia find the Touch Pro - well... it does, but it sees it as being a GSM device, which I haven't figured out either. If the WMWiFiRouter is the only real option, is it known if that software takes any steps to "mask usage" or will I be dealing with Sprint wanting me to get the "phone as modem" package - additionally, if that would be a problem, could the registry modifications help with that?

Any info provided is greatly appreciated. It's the only thing that keeps it from mopping the floor with my previous machine!

//edit: I failed to mention that I am with Sprint, and the USBModem site clearly states that it does not work via BlueTooth with the Sprint service - I don't know if I've done the registry edit and tried USBModem (I don't believe so, but I've tried a fair number of combos and off the wall ideas so far, so I dunno!)
[Touch Pro CDMA] aspir2005:
As far as I can tell, the WMWifiRouter does not let Sprint know that you are tethering since in the technical sense of the word, you are not. Pulling the 3G signal down and broadcasting it as wifi is not tethering. Just try not to use gigabytes of bandwidth every month and you should be fine.

Also, WMWifiRouter is the only solution I've found for my Touch Pro (also on Sprint) that actually works. My tethering hacks always failed after 30 seconds or so, and there seemed to be no other solutions out there besides this piece of software.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Proteus93:
You make a good point in that it's not tethering in the sense of the word. I suppose I could also rephrase the question to ask if they can spot the activity and, if so, how easily, but it may be beating a dead horse. I did find it to be a reasonable solution outside of it being a bit of a battery drain. I don't use such functions very often at all, and as such have never brought attention to any minor tethering I've done in the past. Hopefully it will stay that way and I won't see a whack of charges on my bill. Cheers!
[Touch Pro CDMA] mrrogers1:
How often are you "Tethering" anyway? I honestly don't have any problems using my phone as a modem with the reg edits to modify the connection from "ForceConnection" to "Sprint PCS" and it works great.

I'm not a dedicated "Tetherer" and use it occasionally but have never seen any problems using the Internet Sharing app and the reg edit.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Proteus93:
I use it very rarely (at least I think I do)... maybe once or twice every couple of weeks, and I don't use it to download things from the web and whatnot. Typically, I'll access a few sites and that's about it - very limited.

The only problem I ran into with the reg edits was that my Nokia N800 wasn't picking it up via Bluetooth. Using this method, I can just connect to the wireless broadcast.
[Touch Pro CDMA] mrrogers1:
Hmm, well I usually use the USB cord with mine but I did us the BT DUN on to tether using a MAC and it worked just fine.

[Touch Pro CDMA] Eirikr88:
i invested in PDAnet back when i got my Moto q and have never been happier. I get great speeds. download at 300kb/s at times. Their newest version includes options for WiFi setup as well. Definately worth the money IMO.
[Touch Pro CDMA] mrrogers1:
Would you be willing to do a test with PDANet and the ICS program on our phones?

I'd like to see a comparison of DL speeds fron the same location of PDANet vs. ICS. I have the ICS cab if you are not running it right now if you like.
[Touch Pro CDMA] Proteus93:
PDANet would work fine if I were to tether to a desktop or laptop. Problem is, I am almost never in a situation where I need such a thing. If I use it, it's via bluetooth with my Nokia N800 (since it does not support USB hosting of such devices as 'USB modems'). Bluetooth connectivity with both PDANet and USBModem is nil, with USBModem saying that it won't work with Sprint on their page.

I have found that the latest version of WMWiFiRouter (version 1.25 as of writing) works beautifully and I get reasonably speeds with it... since it's an ad-hoc wifi access point, the Nokia likes it. Problem seems to be solved and very reasonable. :D

I'm trying to port the below exploit to the SO-05K with Android 9. It's basically the same phone as the exploit is meant for, but it's capped to Android 9 while the exploit only has kernel offsets for Android 10 firmwares. I also can't restore the global Android 10 firmware onto the phone. Does anyone know how I would find the offsets specified in exploit.c? I can't seem to find anything about it on the internet.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
You want kallsyms (kernel symbols).

If you're rooted you can:

#echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
cat /proc/kallsyms

If you're not, you can pull your boot image, extract the kernel and extract the kallsyms.

One way to do that is with my imgutil.exe and kallsyms.exe (in my sig).
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdf2345:
So the device isn't rooted, but I have boot.img (from XperiFirm). I was able to get the kernel extracted, but no matter what numbers I use, I keep getting "Could not find names." Maybe I'm doing something wrong, here's my files. H8314 I want as a reference, SO-05K is what I want to find the offsets in.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
Well, those are compressed kernels with DTBs on the end.

You need to gzip expand the kernels and discard the DTB.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
"Fortify" is sanity checking on libc.so

Writing 2 GB to a 4 kB buffer would probably not be good.

I can't vouch for a 3 year-old exploit that I don't particularly want to dive into.

Whatever that exploit does you can manually mod the kernel yourself.

I guess that you used my imgutil.exe but you extracted "kernel" and not "payload".

All that is explained in my beautiful graphic on that web page.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdf2345:
I don't see libc.so in the exploit, so is this some sort of system file?

Do you know of a different exploit or something I could use to gain root that might be easier?

Not sure what you mean, but I compared the H8314 kernel offsets to what was already in the exploit, and they all matched what was there.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Renate:
CVE-2020-0041/src/log.c uses vsnprintf() which is dynamically linked from libc.so

The point of the exploit is to use some sneaky way to patch the loaded kernel (presumably).

You can look at what the patching is and patch the kernel offline and then flash it.

Or you could just Magisk your boot image.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asdf2345:
Locked bootloader though. I could do the paid unlock, but I'd almost rather return the device tbh. I mostly just want to see if I can replicate my guide for XA2 VoLTE on the SO-05K without needing to bootloader unlock before the time runs out.

If it's just logging, could I just remove it and see if it works?

Maybe, but the error seems to indicate that the exploit got all confused.

So I tried without proper offsets, and I get the same error. Does that give any more into about what could be causing it?
